CHINESE AGRIcuLTURE.-AW Washington let
ter to the New York Commercial AdrertiSer
says:
Commissioner Newton, who is doing far
more practical good than any preceding head
of the Agricultural Department, is receiving
collections of seed, plants, &C., from trust
worthy agents, sent by him to distant lands.
To-day large invoice arrived from China,
where agriculture is carried to such perfection.
There are bags of wheat, corn, vegetable seed
and other productions, with magnificent en-
tomological collection, especially rich in the
butterflies of the different kinds of silk worms.
Then there are specimens of sorgho-suga and
syrup, which, by the way, are inferior to those
of home production, and-what is of especial
interest just nova collection of specimens
of paper made from various woods and fbrous
plants. That made from the mulberry wood
appears to be the best, taking the cost into
consideration, and that from the bamboo
comes next. Mr.. Newton merits the thanks
of all interested in the cultivation of the soil
for the practical manner in which he presides
over the Department of Agriculture.

And on her lovers arm she leant
And round her waist she felt it fold,
And far across the hills they went.
IN that new world which is the old;
Across the hills, and far away,
Beyond their utmost purple rim,
And deep into the dying day
The happy princess followed him.
Even as in the sweet Day Dream. the happy couple
In the air ship left the world behind and mounted
starward as though to make their bridal home in some
bright bower beyond the clouds
And DER them many sliding star
And many merry wind was borne
And streamed through many golden bar
The twilight melted into morn.
And DER them many flowing range
Of vapor buoyed the crescent bark
And rapt through many a rosy change,

Our nervousness was quickly gone and we were
soon chatting merrily. Lesser and DINNER grew the
world as we SCARED and swept along over Harlem and
along East River, with its hundred isles with the
