The Vitality Of seeds.

The science Of Botany teaches that not seed
falls to the ground without the knowledge Of
the great Creator. Some seeds are furnish
ed with wings TO sail on the wind to dist mt re-
gions, aud some arc thrown from tho psrelt
item by tho bursting Of q. elastic per carp.
Not on do birds carry sees in their annual
migratiops, Int animals, such rs squirrels,
bury them In the ground. The development Of
the vital principle depends on outward clrcum.
stances-moistuIe, heat and air being essential
in exact proportions. Moisture and warmth
without air, rot seeds; and warmth and air
without moisture, parcb them. Darkness Is
more favorable than light for germina
tion, and thin depth Of soil Is hest
for the qualification Of small seeds, while
The heavy varieties require u greater depth.
Glover aud wild turnips have been known
to retain their vitality after being bu-
ried scores OF years rye at 40; wild tur-
pips at 70, and kidney beans at 100 years;
while seeds Of wheat, rsspberrles and beach
plums live for centuries. Paper made Of tar
Ted rope forms the best wrapper for preserving
seeds. Cold affects the vitality Of we'll dried
seeds 50 little that they have lived In tenn
perature low enough to freeze mercury, and u
German gardener purpossly freezes melon,
fquash and cucumber seeds TO make them more
prolific. A more diligent study Of Botany In
our public schools would do much TO disfemi-
pate that correct knowledge Of the laws Of veg
etable life, on which the fsI mers' success 80
greatly depends.

PANS, January 25tb, 1861.
The great improvements effected in tho out.
ward appearance Of Paris under the cner-
gctic government Of the present Emperor, have
not secured him against occasional whispers Of
dissatisfaction at the immense sxpct di,ures in
which be has involved tho city. Sixteen mil.
lions Of dollars for the opening Of single street
like the Boulevard dc Sebastopol, is more tbs
most taxpayers would give without, at least,
the privilege Of gramblisg, and when We r,.
member that this Is but a single item in ,h,
budget OF Improvement, IL must 10 conceded
tho bears Of the Boursc are fairly entitled TO
growl.
But We who pay millions seemingly for no
other purpose than to prevent an Alderman
from taking to tho highway, can scarcely sym
pathize with these Partisan grumb'erL wh,n
such practical evidence that their treasure is
being carefully expended, is afforded by The
well paved, we'll cleaned, and well guarded
streets Of Paris. II would surely be worth to us
the interest Of anything like manageable deb.
to have tho satisfaction Of seeing Broadway and
the Avenues with sidewalk 80 to 10 feet wide,
smooth as ball reom floor and clean as daily
sweeping could make them, and to have some Of
our narrow side streets changed into bread
thoroughfares, with beautiful buildings and
spacious walls to drain Broadway Of some Of its
surplus population.
Apart from the manifest advantage it has at
present in the ccntralL ,tion Of power wo find u
reason for the efficiency Of the municipal ggv-
ernment Of Paris in the fact that IL undertakes
no moro than it has the ability to accomplish,
and is under no pressure Of public opinion for
cling it TO extend its labors Into tho sphere of
the theoretical and impossible.
Thus II happens that much which ofrends tho
eye ard car In the great cities Of America and
England, lie spared to US in Paris, and we can
walk its streets at any hour Of tho night
rntisturbed by the assaults which m.ko the
Strand or the lIsymarket In London nosicr

cal is the sympathy felt throughout Europe for

Monde, tho leading legitimate organ, not a
kord has been uttered in appreciation OF the
tratorous course Of tho southern A stcessionists,
Ind the views taken Of our difficulties are gen.
