Tea has been grown by several per-
sons in Georgia, and the shrub appears
| to be entirely hardy all along the lower
portions OF the State. Grows from three
| to tive feet high. neat, compact, laurel
Ieafed shrub, With pretty white flowers
in spring, and is quite ornamental. A
well-grown shrub, i've or six years old,
Will yield in season three to six ounces.
Seeding plants can be purchased from
some of our nurserymen at reasonable
prices, and they are easily propagated
from seeds and stool cuttings. The
plants bear seeds at three or four years
old. 1t would be an easy matter for any
family that has home and lew ieet of
ground to produce their own tea and
little to sell. Its general introduction
for home use would most likely lead TO
it's production for market. There would
be many things for our people TO learn to
be able to manufacture the article as we
get it from China, but very good tea
and free from aduiteration can be made
by simply packing and drying the leaves
in the same manner that sage leaves are
cured. The different qualities of the
commercial article is the result OF the
time of picking the leaves, the manner
of curing ana the amount OF adultera-
tion. The shrubs can be transplanted
any time from November to April. We
may add that the tea plant seems to be
perfectly hardy, and to do very we'll in

sippi.

Saturday night grand spelling match,
etcetera, will take place at Pixies. We
would suggest that the managers induce
ladies as well as gentlemen TO take part
in this war OF words. A party OF young
ladies at the Hdb recently spelled against
an equal number of collegial es and came
otf victors. 1t will add greatly to the in-
terest OF the occasion il ladies shall be
among the contestants, and surely Gin
cinnati ladies ought not to be 50 very
modest that they can not spell ''for the
good OF the cause"
Some of our most cultivated young Ia
dies have appeared on the stage at Pike's
in representing Zenana lite in India, and
in countless other exhibitions for the
benefit of benevolent objects, and why
not i'll a spelling match as we'll? In
truth, as IN the latter there is no poss-
Bile chance Tor II vain display, partici-
pants would be credited with more un-
seitishness. than in singing, tabieaux, or
private theaLricals,' wnere it is possible
that in rare cases ladies take part for
the purpose. of exhibiting their beauty,
their fine apparel, and their winning
ways.
Well, let us have some spelling done
by ladies next Saturday night. Why not
place the immortal J0Hy-three on
the stand? 1t wou.a be an emluentit
fitting finale to the Temperance Fair,
and draw greater crowd and put more

piled that all classes would heartily
welcome the American team this sum-
mer. The gentlemen from the United

petition, were undoubtedly law-abiding
citizens. There was no reason to sup
pose that they would break the law, or
be any more likely to render themselves
liable to arrest than Scolchmen or
Englshmen. Sullivan insisting on a
positive assurance, SO that there might
be no apprehension, the Chief Secre-
tary replied that there would be no in
+ reference with the visitors, because it
was well understood that they had no

sary a special arrangement would be
made to secure their entire freedom OF
