Chima--sll,tercsei,s Facts.

We take Tire following extract from
an authentic work, published by Mr..
Williams who, from long residence
in China, has been enabled to write
knowingly upon the various subjects
embraced in his work:
The denscncss OF the population has
long since driven out all wild quadru
peds. and there are also few domestic
ones, such as are found in Eastern
countries. Beasts Of burlhen arc in u
great degree superseded by the means
Of transport afforded by the numerous
rivers ap2 canals, and by the coolies
Or portsS Seclass of athletic men.
whs<ai..s.sS};Ss n ai,s;itgacc ofanimals in car
rying bI,fsns and in dragging boats.
Animals are excluded to have more
food for them. there are no meadows
for feeding cattle; but the entire soil
is used in raising food for the nhabi-
tants. Wild cats are sometimes caught
and considered great dainty. Mon
keys ore found in the Southwest
provinces. What few horses and asses
are found in China are small and very
inferior in every respect. The buffalo
is also very inferior. Dromedarvs
are used between Pekin and Tartory.
There are also hogs, goats and sheep.
There is but one variety of dogs in the
country, an animal about one foot
high aud two feet long resembling a
spaniel. Rats are very abundant and
furnish the common people with mca'.
They are{yery large and destructive
to crops. Of,he birds in China ther c
are the eagle, the falcon, the n,agp,e,
crows, sparrows. c"rmorants' curlews,
qnals, pigeons, larks, pheasants, the
rice bird, and many species. Of aquatic
birds. Corlnorants arcS used l,y the
Chinese for catching fish. The falcon
is imperial property, and the magpic
is acknowledged by the rcigning fam
lily.
Fish form very i'npor,an. part 0!
the food Of the Chinese, and great
care are taken in raising them in arti
fetal fish ponds. The gold and silver
fish are kept in glass globes rs orna
ments. Among the fish eaten, are the
cod. sturgeon, mullet, carp, pearcl,
sea Dream, &c.-Crab fish aud oysters
are common on the coast.
The larger species of reptile, a"c
unknown in China. Frogs, Lizards
and fresh water tortoises are common.
Vcnomous serpcnts are very rare.
China proper contains 100000
square miles and the indcpendcncies,
which cover an nrea of tho whole
empire, 100000 square mile.
Though the dependencies consisting
ofChinese Thatary, Thibet. Little
Bacharia, and the peninsula of Corca,
are three times the extent Of China
itso'f, in other respects they are
vastly inferior to it, being a in great
proportion, comparatively deserts,
with Struggling ard rapacious popu-
alton, perhaps altogether not one
tenth in number Of those of China
proper.

return to our several spheres, and new
duties open upon US. Does our fore
taste OF them chill the anticipation?-
Have we to tell of life the old tale of
disappointment and despair? Or can
we look it boldly in the face, and re-.
solve that, though hope be otitimc
buried in the hard trials which hedge
about us, and prop after prop falls as
we lean, yet that our faith in the right
and the true shall never be shaken? If
we have this, we are armed for every
contest. Wealth and honcrs may no,
pour III upon us, and defeat may blight
our best efforts, but we will live and
die worthily, as becomes men.
In the Address you have just heard
it has been my chief aim to impress
upon you an exalted estimate of the
character and the duties Of the citizens
of q republic, to stimulate your pride
in our institutions, and to enlist your
defence,so earnestly demanded for the
future of the South. Classmates,
patriotism issno holyday dress, where
in to trust that fools may gapc and
stare. To avail anything for The sub
lime duties which God has mrrkcd
out forit, it must be an active abiding
conviction that needs no, the drama
