He bad no doubt that . the work which had been so auspiciously begun would succeed, that the United States and Niearagua would be joined in one common interest. He had no doubt that the Pacific and} American Ship Canal Company would meet with great success, and concluded by giving as a toast— “The succéss of the American Pacific Ship Canal Company,’’ which was reeeived with eheers by the company. builds his log-house and his wine-cellar, buys his cattle and implements, and plants his vineyard—at the same time laying out same of bis fields for common crops. For the first three years, he lives on bis farm, the sale of his wood, and the like. By the fourth year his vines make a return, and even if the year bea bad one, are certain to pay the wages of his labor. ‘ After this, his average yield is gt least three hundred gallons an acre—worth from three hundred dollars to three hundred and seventyfive dollars, It often reaches one thousand gallons, or $,1000 to $1,250 in value. One man can work two or three acres easily, and often much more, If he hires labor, wages is from 6s. to $1 a day, or from $12 to $15 a month. Provisions are very cheap, so that the returns from this branch of culture must be among the most profitable of any to be obtained from agricultural industry through the whole country.

It is the only weekly publication of the kind now issued in this country, and it has a very extensive circulation in a!! the States of the Union. Itis not, as some might suppose from its title, a dry, abstruse work ral science ; on ihe contrary, it so deals with the oe technic ; great events going on in the scientific mechanical and in dustrial worlds, as to please aad instruct every one If the Mechanic or Artizan wishes to know the best machine in use, or how to make any substance employed in his business—if the Housewife wishes to get a receipe for making a good color, &c.—if the Inventor wishes to know what is going on in the way of improvements—if the manufacturer wishes to keep posted with the times. and to employ the best facilities in his business—if the Man of Leisure and Study wishes to keep himself familliar with the progress made in the chemical labratery, or In the construction of telegraphs, steamships, railroads, reapers, has been translated, its images, drawn from the natural scenery of the East, leaves a deep impression gpon the mind. ‘*The Lord walketh on the heighths of the waters, on the ridges of saw before.

The habits of animals are described, as, for instance, those of tbe wild ass, the horse, the buffalo, the rhinoce ros, and the crocadile, the eagle and the ostrich. We see “the pure ether spread, during the scorching heat of the South wind, asa melted mirror over the parched desert,” The poetic literature of the Hebrews is not deficient in variety of form; for while the whole Hebrew poetry breathes a tone of warlike enthusiasm from Joshuato Samuel, the little book of the gleaner Ruth, presents us with a ebarming and exquisite picture of nature.— Goethe, at the period of bis enthusiasm for the East, spoke of it ‘as the loveliest specimen of epic and idol poetry which we possese.’’— /umboldt’s Cosmos. ° Vicronira anv Her Daventrer.—The Boston Post is responsible for the following: “We are surry to say it—we do not wish to {Bayard Taylor to the N.Y J noticed but three changes in Constantinople since I firet saw it, in 1852—to wit: Pera is lighted with gas, the hotels have raised their prices five francs a day, and the dogs of Stamboul no longer bark at Giaoure, Jno all other respects it isthe same medley of unparalelled external splendor and internal filth, imperfect Europe and shabby Asia. the three is undoubtedly due to the wholesome training given tu the dogs aforesaid by the soldiers of the allied armies.

He farther remarks that the royal paiaee at . Athens cost two millions of dollare. For this sum the Greeks have an immense ugly pile of Pentelic marble, as large ae Buckingham, or the Residenz at Berlin. One-fourth of the . money would have built a beautiful stracture, . proportioned to the size and means of the coun. try. The King has a salary of one million of . drachmas ($166,666) per annum, which, to his . . eredit, he spends in and about Athens. The . . court alone swallows np about one-twelfth of eclipse it.

Parpon Kervusep.—Governr Weller has refused to pardon David Dickey, who was sentenced by the Sacramento County Court, ia 1855, to ten years’ confinement in the State Prison, for an assault with intent to commit rape.

He bad no doubt that . the work which had been so auspiciously begun would succeed, that the United States and Niearagua would be joined in one common interest. He had no doubt that the Pacific and} American Ship Canal Company would meet with great success, and concluded by giving as a toast— “The succéss of the American Pacific Ship Canal Company,’’ which was reeeived with eheers by the company. builds his log-house and his wine-cellar, buys his cattle and implements, and plants his vineyard—at the same time laying out same of bis fields for common crops. For the first three years, he lives on bis farm, the sale of his wood, and the like. By the fourth year his vines make a return, and even if the year bea bad one, are certain to pay the wages of his labor. ‘ After this, his average yield is gt least three hundred gallons an acre—worth from three hundred dollars to three hundred and seventyfive dollars, It often reaches one thousand gallons, or $,1000 to $1,250 in value. One man can work two or three acres easily, and often much more, If he hires labor, wages is from 6s. to $1 a day, or from $12 to $15 a month. Provisions are very cheap, so that the returns from this branch of culture must be among the most profitable of any to be obtained from agricultural industry through the whole country.

The habits of animals are described, as, for instance, those of tbe wild ass, the horse, the buffalo, the rhinoce ros, and the crocadile, the eagle and the ostrich. We see “the pure ether spread, during the scorching heat of the South wind, asa melted mirror over the parched desert,” The poetic literature of the Hebrews is not deficient in variety of form; for while the whole Hebrew poetry breathes a tone of warlike enthusiasm from Joshuato Samuel, the little book of the gleaner Ruth, presents us with a ebarming and exquisite picture of nature.— Goethe, at the period of bis enthusiasm for the East, spoke of it ‘as the loveliest specimen of epic and idol poetry which we possese.’’— /umboldt’s Cosmos. ° Vicronira anv Her Daventrer.—The Boston Post is responsible for the following: “We are surry to say it—we do not wish to {Bayard Taylor to the N.Y J noticed but three changes in Constantinople since I firet saw it, in 1852—to wit: Pera is lighted with gas, the hotels have raised their prices five francs a day, and the dogs of Stamboul no longer bark at Giaoure, Jno all other respects it isthe same medley of unparalelled external splendor and internal filth, imperfect Europe and shabby Asia. the three is undoubtedly due to the wholesome training given tu the dogs aforesaid by the soldiers of the allied armies.
