A NEw SUGAR CAsE.-One of the United
States officials in Japan has forwarded to bis
government a specimen Of sugar cane grown IN
that country, resembling the sorghum which
comes from China. Il is grown from layers in
stead OF seed It s thought that the popularity
OF It's propagation, should st prove otherwise
successful would give 1t an important advantage
over sorghum, preventing hyOrdling with mil

portion oit was destroyed III the long voyage,
but enough Is sound and already sprouting to

TuE CHOLERA IN EGYPT.-We learn by our
foreign exchanges that the outbreak Of the chol-
era in Egypt is attributed, first to the tardy
rise OF the Nile and this IN turn to the heat
having been insufficient to melt the snow on the
mountains Of Upper Egypt The consequent
stagnation of the Mahmoude Clnal-that
branch Of the Nile which flows through Alex
andris into the Mediteranean--has caused
wholesale death along il banks, and in the very
harbor OF Alexandria, which IS always crowded
with shipping-for the Arabs drink, perform
their ablutions IN and make every conceivable
use Of the water Of the caual Another cause
Of the visit OF cholera 10 Alexandria is supposed
to be tie unusually large number of Moham-
medan pilgrims VINO have passed through Egypt
this season on their return from Medina aud
Mecca, and who are crowded together like AMI
mails On board ship, with meagre fare. 4 third
cause assigned by some Is the foul air and mi
asma proceeding from the putried carcasses
Of dead animals strewn outside the town, and
from the numerous burial grounds around, as
IN the hurried manner in which the dead are
consigned to their tombs no time is allowed to
dig tue graves to proper depth Letters from
Medina give rightlu account Of its ravages

than lorty-sx thousand pilgrims were carried %
