GRREN TEAS. Tho Missionary Advocate Tor
January contains a long letter FROM the Rev.
Or. Wentworth. at Few Chau. China, IRON
which we make the following extract:
Several American ships are lying IN port
awaiting the arrival Of green teas. The Eu-
glish who love the leaf unadulter4ted, have ia
ken the first cargoes of the season, and spec
homeward with them. The Americans are
green enough to prefer an infusion Of Prussian
blue, rendering that an article so scarce and
high in the vicinity OF the "green teas that
the natives can hardly afford to use il on the
venetiaus of their verandahs. II some hundreds
of good ladies, who go with their heads tightly
bandaged day or two in each week, with aick
headache, and whose only remedy is ''green
tea, would abandon the use of "green tea,
altogether, they would find in the remedy it
self the source Of the disease.
Three steamers have arrived OF late from
Shanghai, bringing news and passengers
among others, Bishop Boone, Of the Protestant
| Episcopal Mission, who has bson the pleasant
guest Of Rev. Mr.. Mar cy for a week past. WI
have thus been gratiffed with the acquisition
ofthe Mission cause in China, who have visitet
Fuh Ohsu within the year, Doctors Medhurst
| Bridgeman Boone and Parker.
