SHIPMENT OF SEEDS FROM CHINA-We
learn that dispatches have been received by
the Commissioner of Patents from Mr.. Rob
ert Fortune, bearing date of Shanghai, as re-
cent as the 9th of December enclosing bills
of lading for large quantities Of tea seeds
packed in earth, yang-mac tree and its seeds,
seeds of the camphor tree, tun-oil tree and Of
the oo-dang. The yang-mae is much esteem
ed in China for its fruit the tung-oil produces
valuable oil, largely used by carpenters and
varnishers of wood and the oo-dang is highly
priced for ornaments. The introduction of
the camphor tree into Florida and other
Southern States, has been contemplated for
more than hundred years, but no direct
measures have been taken before the present
that would seem to warrant success. We I'M
derstand that the Patent Office has erected,
upon the most approved principles, a propa-
eating house on the public reservation in this
city, for the termination of the above named
seeds, where they will be placed as soon as
they arrive, preparatory to transplanting them
to the localities in which the experiments of
acclimation and culture are finally to be made.

WASHINGTON SocIETY.-The social evil
has unquestionably grown to be a serious one,
not in Washington alone, where the peculiar
material of fashionable society, and the direct
tendency and influence of social customs, is
toward certain improper latitude in the social
relations of the sexes, but in many of our
larger cities where fashion holds her court, and
vice, disguised or open, is chief among her
votaries. 1t is well for the sake of all, that
public attention should be drawn to the corrup-
ton which riots beneath the surface of what is
called fashionable society" in some of our
large cities; it is well that the gilded covering
should be torn away, even if by such terrible
explosion of the hidden evil as that which has
burst at Washington, and shocked the whole
country. As long as men of VIGOROUSLY prof
igate habits are permitted to mingle unques-
toned in the chest society,"" lis the term ap-
piled in irony = and are honored and flatter-
ed by the fairest and highest ladies in the land,
the evil can never be eradicated /; it will ex-
tend, and take deeper root.-Ha1ttord Times.

STRONG ILLUsrRATIoN.-A correspond
ent of one ofthe New York papers, says, in re-
lation to the Sickles tragedy in Washington:
Beyond all the other features of this case is
that terrible truth, that where man of fine in
tellect participates in such scene "'ts the
survivor dies" 1t must be so-dismissed such
scenes cannot be-the red ray will be in all the
light Of the future. An engineer on one of our
railways, had, without fault of his own, run
the tremendous power under his cantrol over
human being, The body was removed from
the rail, death had done his dread work, ex-
animation was made of the circumstances, and
the engineer acquitted, the homicide was not
in him. Yet, little while afterward that en-
gineer came TO the Superintendent and asked
to resign his place, he could not endure it any
longer.

is THERE NOT A CAUSE :

A temperance meeting is held ev-
cry Sabbath p. Lin the City Hall, in
Detroit, which is numerously attended by
clergymen and others. The order of Good
Templars has never been in so flourishing
condition in the State, as at the present.
In New York State Convention was
called to meet at Saratoga, on the I'd and
Sd inst, under the auspices of the N. Y.
Temperance Society and tho American
Temperance Union. The meeting is not
yet-heard from.
In Ohio there seems spontaneous
movement throughout the State. In
some portions County Conventions are
held once in two or three months, and on
the 25th inst. is to be held grand con-
vention at the Camp Grounds in Berea,
at which large portion Of the State is ex-
pected to be represented. Rev. G, WHITE,
of Cleveland, is to deliver the principal
address on the occasion. Pennsylvania,
Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin and Iowa, are
sympathizing in the movement. In all
those States the prohibitory Law is one
principal topic of interest and debate, and
in most of them there is q prohibitory
law of some kind.
Now the question arises, why this gen
eral, spontaneous movements ais there
not a causep Who are the principal
sufferers? To what class in community
does this deep and earnest movement
beckon onward, urging efficient protection
from the destroyer? Who of us can lay
our hand upon our heart and say l am
innocent in this matter? Who of us can
look upward and refuse to heed the dis
NAL, wailing call, which is borne to us on
every breeze? p.

CoUNsELs FOR THE PRESENT AND FU-
TURE.-Success in life, especially in bust
ness, consists in q careful outstanding. of
things, at the moment, apparently trifling.
A careful man would think if he lost a
golden eagle of the inconvenience which
might arise from so small loss. 1t ght
be his last ready money until he realized
his crops. Yet how easily some men will
put up with the loss of good COW, and
especially is it surprising when that loss
has arisen by negligence and lack of
proper attention to the animals wants.
Is not the loss of the COW equal in value
to the loss of the Same amount in money
and is not the man the loser? Why so
much more unconcerned about the loss of
the one and not the other? Do not the
cattle pay well for their board, and good
interest for the capital invested in them
Grass in many places is exceeding scarce
hay will be dear; take care then Of the
straw pile-don't burn it; it is wasteful
and an evidence Of inconsiderate farming
How many comfortable beds will it make
for stock How much it will add to and
increase the manure heap! Cobbett says,
"a man, who wishes to have big, heavy
hogs, should make them such a bod as he
himself could take a comfortable nights
repose in" It's very unfeeling to burn
straw, when il can be cut, and is good for
stock. Is it not singular fact that man
'uring corn land does not lessen the size
of the cob, the grain or the leaves? 1t
used to be thought so. But Father Elk
perience teaches different lessons, and he
has now got pretty numerous school.
If the farmer has not'a sufficiency of food
and shelter, let him sell them and spend
the money, if he can spare it, in improv-
ing his farm. Good advice is valued by
the thoughtful. Prairie Farmer.
