The peculiar taste OF the Croton Wafer for tie
last two weeks has given rise TO good deal of
speculation and some little excitement A strong
earthly quality, such as one Ends in swollen brooks
after heavy shower, is the immediate provocason
to many absurd theories; and the good people who
have for seventeen years passisely enjoyed one Of
the greatest Injuries Of lfs-cold water in abund-
apce-now repudiate the fluid, and rush to lager
bier and slOps of worte quality, at the peril Of
their health. OF course, the lquordealers are not
slow TO avail themselves Of the bue and cry, and
the harmless Croton is baDi.hed from many table,
and prescribed in many household.
There is really no cauie for this panic. The
water has been somewhat affected by the heavy
showers which fell few days since; the swsmps
and low grounds along the river are full to over.

The importance Of the AmoOr to Russia has been
much OF errated Wonderful stOres-stories which
are literally fsbulous-have been told of the sudden
rise Of commerce along its course, which had
diminished the price Of sugar at the Irbt Fair BY
twenty cents per pound, which had produced large
exports of salt beef to the ports of the Pacific, and
which since 1857, had employed steamers running
regularly on the river during the Summer.
From late number of Erman's Arehir, giving
an account of what has actually been done toward
the navigation Of the AMOR, we find that the
steamer Lena. which was placed on the river in
1857, left Msrienport on the 3lst Of May, and on
the 18th of August arrived at Sbilkinskyi Sawed,
where the was laid up for the Winter second
steamer succeeded only in getting Is far as the
mouth of the Sejs. Sugar, tobacco and segsrs had
been taken up the river, but only rs samples, and
not in quantities which could affect prices; and ~
to the Irbit Fair, it eau in no wise be affected BY
suy navigation Of the Amoor. In Chita, the prin-
cipul town on the Upper AmoOr, the prics Of sugar
was still in July of last year, 40 cents per pound,
and of cofles 60 cents per pound.
During the Summer of 1858 the Lena resumed
her trip up the river, and on the 23d Of October
che lay at StreJirsk. Although she drew only
four and half feet Of water she was continually
running aground, and being stern-wheeled boat
there was great difficulty in steering her. The
other boat was of eigbthorse power, and had sac
commOdatioas for four passengers" A Russian
stsoficer who sta ted her the year before, Left
her at the first opportunity 70 continue his voyage
In native canoe
In estimating he value of rivers it will not do to
be governed very much by their appearance on the
map On the map, the Danube appears to be
worth twice as much commercially the Rhine,
while in reality the Rhine bears five times the
merce of the Danube. AS u channel of commerce
the Amoor appears to take very low rank; the
best and warmest portion Of it's valley is still in the
hands Of the Chinese; Russia has gained in it no
considerable political or commercial advantages
nothing but some excellent ship timber.
