A State Ball.

The Royal Fete at Buckingham Palace Flowers and Bric-a-Brac. Writing of the recent State ball in London, correspondent of the New York Connlesci0, AdUertiser says;
 From description but slight idea can be formed of the spacious and elegantly -uphol. ingham Palace. The present state saloons have been added during the reign of Victo ria, and we'll planned and decorated under the supervision of Prince Albert. They may
 easily be distinguished by ''V R." which in gold monogram is placed above the door and mirrors.
 The picture gallery, which is a favorit C
 promenade on State ball occasions, is illulm-
 mated from the dome, the lights being ac-
 ed inside the glass, producing the effect of an
 arched ceiling of effulgence. There are can-
 delabra and lighted sconces throughout this lengthy corridor, as there are in fact through out the palace, which fairly glittered last evening with the twinkle of waxlights. The pictures that cover the walls are interesting and valuable, large one of Rubens being conspicuous for it's great power. There are several inlaid cabinets, and many of the priceless vases of Sevres which rank first in the gems of this castle ornamenting the gal Iery The flowers in this room were in the
 grates which are of elaborately carved white marble These were filled in the most har- monious style with scarlet geraniums, crim-
 son pelargoniums, pale pink hydrangeas and
 frondes of ferns. The effect of the scarlet and green against the pure white stone was clear and very rich. To the right of the gallery are the drawing rooms, one leading into another; each apart

But here is business which will return fortunes for skilled superintendency, and the brainy, nervous intelligence of the South does not know how to run it." As illustrations, the PfcGyasze quotes from statements made in many southern cities of the demand for northern capital and skill. In Vicksburg about one hundred and fifty thousand dollars have been subscribed for cotton mill. "It is desired to cooperate with eastern manu- lecturers, who will subscribe so much stock and who will take charge of the mill, build, equip and manage it.'' Jackson, Tennes- see, has raised $75, GOO. Chicago firm has agreed to take $4o,oOO stock. provided a part is taken by skilled New England man agers.' Paris, Tennessee, has buildings and $25. 900 raised and wants good manu- facturer to come down and take charge" |" There are similar calls from towns in Texas, Mississippi and North Carolina.
 It is believed by some that the Chinese government really approves of the opium traffic. The Grand Secretary and Viceroy, Hi Hung Chang, has written letter to the secretary of the English Society for the Sup pression of the Opium Trade, which sets forth very clearly the position of China in this matter He says: ''The sense of injury which China has so long borne with refer ence to opium finds some relief in the sym pathy which society like yours existing in England bespeaks. I may take the op- portunity to assert here, once for all, that the single aim of the government in taxing opium will be in the future as it has always been in the past to repress the trafhc-never the desire to gain revenue from such source. Having failed to kill serpent, who would be so rash as to nurse it in his bosom? If it be thought that China countenances the import for the revenue it brings, it should be known that my government will gladly cut off all such revenue in order to stop the import of opi- um. My sovereign has never desired his Empire to thrive upon the lives or infirmi- ties of his subjects. The poppy Is certainly surreptitiously grown in some parts of China, notwithstanding the laws and ire quent imperial edicts prohibiting it's cultiva- tion. Yet tkis unlawful cultivation no more shows that the government approves Of It than other crimes committed in the Empire by lawless subjects indicate approval by the government of such crimes. In like man. ner, the present import duty on opium was established, not from choice, but because China submitted to the adverse decision of arms The war must be considered Chi mas standing protest against legalizing such a revenue. My government is impressed with the necessity of making strenuous eff forts to control this flood of opium before it overwhelms the whole country. The new treaty with the United States containing the prohibitory clause against opium encourages the belief that the broad principles of jus tice and feelings of humanity will prevail in future relations between China and western nationso

sunken Forests in New Jersey.

ICorrespondence of N. Y. Evening Post
 The traveller to Dennisville leaves the cars and crowd of gay Cape May pleasure seekers at Woodbine, little station on the. West Jersey railroad A four-mile ride through deus- underbrush, clouded by mosquitoes of vast penetration and blue-headed horse flies as big as humble bees, will bring him to his journeys end He will find Dennisville a sprawling dingy township of 5000 lnhablt- ants, with it's central group of houses on a causeway between two great swamps. The wet lands around are covered partly by solid growths of white cedar, partly by thick wa ter weeds and partly by stumps and fallen logs of immense. size. These are only the surface indications of the wealth below. The swamps covering ten square miles are under laid by sunken forests which grew hundreds and thousands of years ago. The seeming worse than barren waste, for which the sharpest of Yankee farmers would deem fifty cents an acre swindling price, have been worth by the acre their hundreds of dollars
 They have turned their own desolation into a hive of industry built up a lively village, and made an addition, as legitimate as it is unique to the wealth of the country.
 The huge trees which lie under the swamp to unknown depths are of the white cedar variety, and evergreen, known scientifically as the Cspressas I7tNyOides They grew years ago in the fresh water which is necess- ary for their sustenance and when, in time, either Dy SuDSlQcACc O1 bA1S AehA OA O AAoo VI the sea. the salt water reached them, they died in great numbers. But many of them. ere they died, fell over as living trees and were covered slowly by the deposits of muck and peat which fill the swamp. These trees that fell over by the roots are known as
 sswindfalls" to distinguish them from the s.breakdow1s' The trees which broke of are the ones most sought for commercial uses, and they are found and worked as fol lows: The log digger enters the swamp with a sharpened iron rod. He probes in the soft soil until he strikes tree, probably two or three feet below the surface. In few min- utes he finds the length of the trunk, how much still remains firm wood and at what place the first knots, which will stop the straight sssplit" necessary for shingles, be- gin Still uslng his prod like the divining rod of g magician, he manages to secure 8 chip. and by the smell knows whether the tree is a windfall or breakdown. Then he inserts in the mud saw like that used by ice cutters, and saws through the roots and muck until the log is reached. The top and roots are thus sawed of, a ditch dug over the

The United Swiss railroads have novel way of paying dividends to part of their stockholders. Preferred shareholders get their regular three per cent, but the holders of original shares are compensated in much less commonplace manner. When the gen. eral meetings are annually held, it is calmly decreed that they be allowed to travel for three full days through the cantons of Zu- rich, St. Gall and Grisons at the expense of nobody except the roads, these free rides to be accepted as dividends. Much is made of this privilege by the helpless shareholders, for whole crowds of them turn out for the gratuitous excursions.
