Lfrorts of the Commissioner of Agricul
turo to Introduce Its Culturo in South
.a,rolinia.
oum ex <mid Cimtricr.
Tbo United States Commissionor
>f Agriculture, Geiteral Lo Due, is
klivo to the fact dhat farmers are
:iot careful, thoughtful and methodi
al enlougli, and rely too much upon
,t habits and lmniors that ifvo
3MIto down perhaps from a long lino
Jf ancestors., Ito knows they too
rrec(ieitly fail to calculato Clho cost
Af growiig a crop, and perhaps
Iever knov till the end of tho year
whether a crop has or has not any
act money in it. Ho is theroforo
particularly aixioius to test a variety
Af vegeutablem and plants in ditferent
Latitudes, and learn whether or not
they wo,Uld not be more p1o1fitable
ui crolp than those nov cultivated.
With this view Io is anxious to il
moduce tho tea plant into South
LAtrolilm, and thinks that if our
)oople are really as poor as., they say
h1y are, the tea plant might Knp
lan man'y of the roses and ever
I"Cile ill the front of most of
)mlr (hvellizigs ;- for whilo these Iat
er simply pleasie the eyo or refresli
he olfacorios, the former if cllti
ateod proporly, would bo made to
Ielp 0he pocket.
No o.10 rceves material pay
nen, for cultivating flowers, nid it
< quite an1 cxpenvsoe- and labor ; and
iInce aill over South Carolina thoso
frand aml beautiful old flovor gar
1c.Hs, which overe so hIanuldsoimo in
mite - l" /11: 6h1es, aro now frequenit
y given itp to \%-evds and briars.
It would not bo so with tho ten
)llanlt : for aftOr a yoa-r or two, it
woubd b)ecomo a sorlcO of profit,
mid this profit would increse an
lually.
At present the United States are
mporting annually several millions
A> dollars' worth of Chinese tells
md they are all, moro or less, so
miedicated that, 'tis said, the origiial
rower could scarcely recognizo the
)everago if ho woro to quaff it in
mlerica. If South Carolina were
half as devoted to tea culturo as she
in to the culture and inprovemeut
1f cotton, thoro could be millions of
1ollars worth of toa grown and sold
in this State annually ; and that,
too, by the intolligent, industrious,
lovely South Carolina womon. Only
think what we aro losing by our
gignorance.
Goneral Lo Due has received
valuable information upon this sub
ect from Mr. James Edward Cal -
boim, of Abbevillo county, S. C.,
who for years has grown the to
plant, and d;unk it pure and unadul
Lerated. Mr. Calhoun writes him
tho fruit of the tea plant is a cap
-ile, the hull of which has many of
the properties of quinino. This is
rnother valnablo discovery, an(1
fhould make us moro anxious all over
the South to introduce the culturo
:>f the tea plant.
About two thousand plants havo
[his fall been ent into South Caro
lipma by the Conunissioner, and it is
rhout allibe had. lie is preparing
to have a million plhmts ready by
.meoxt fall, and if the parties to
whom he has sent these p)lants in
{onthb Carolina will aid him in his
afl'orts, and report, asa promised,
mher uce.ss with thme plants given
dhem, ho anticipates that in a foew
y'ears lie will 1bo able to have the
;oam prepared for market, with much
irofitI, in several portions of the
Stalte. His idea.fi is to induce the
multivation of tho plant at many
ioinlts, and1( whuen the area becomes
arge enough, then to establish in
somo cu on tral p)oint, peOrha ps Colhum -
>ini, the mnufacture of the moerchan
saibl article.
We sincerely hope the parties to
whlom theso plants have been sent
vill bestow mxoro than ordinary care
ipon them, and at the pr1opor' time
eport their unlCcoss to the depart
noent.
General Le Duc is also very anx
ous to subject the sweet potato
yam) to chemical analysis, with a
loew to test whether or not it would
Lio a profi table business to engage
n the manufacture of sugar from
Llhe yam. M'illions of dollars' worth
>f sugar are mnado annually by the
brench, and by the Canadians on
this side of the Atlantic, from the
eet, and if the palate is qualified
to judlgo it can bear testimony to
the snperior swvoetness of the yamn
>vor thme beet. We have written to
t frieud to scud a fowv yams to the
.lep)artmnent, and we will watch with
nuch interest the result of this
mnalysis, and report it.
There is nowv a heavy duty upon
mgar, and overy lump a child oats
ost thuo parent more than it should,
mnd henco the niecesmsity and aidvisa
>ility of justL such experments as
are proposed to ho mado at the
departimelt. The object is to
learn if we cannot manufacture
sugar to export, an( poent the
iceessity of any inportation. Let
us11 hold up tho Commissionor's hand
in his elffrts.

Intoresting Details of a Brilliant but
Unsuccostiful Mancauvro.
LONDON, Doco1nbor 13-Noon.
The Russian official account of the
capturo of Plovia confirms the
deails already tolographod. It
says tho Turks fought liko lions.
SOven Pashas woro captured. The
couniing of the prisoners and troops
is not yet colmploted. Tho Em
peror was preselt at the thialnks
giving service hold on the site of the
lorlilr headtquartors of Osman
Plshia.
The s1111sians iad information
three days in advanoo of Osman
.Pa-sh.'s intention to mako a sortie.
AL 7 o'clock ill tho morning Osman
Vosse1d tho Vid oi two bridges aind
attackedl the Russian positions with
such foreo that ho cuptim'od eight
clulion, and in a few illilutes abn11ost
annihilaited Ithli Siberski grvonadior
regimet. Tho Turks thei fouind
thelliselves under the fire of a
liumidred cannon of the Russian
secoid line, itild woro attacked by
tho gronadiers, who resolved to re,
capture their guns. The Turks
were driven back after a fifteen
innutos bayonet light, but contin
tied to fire from the shelter of the
banks of the Vid until ton minutos
past 12 o'clock. when tihe firing
co:wod on both sides, and a quarter
of an hour afterwards Osman sont
an lenvoy to treat for surrender.
Osian's wound is in the log, and
not serious.
The Turks seem to have renewed
offensive operations in the neigh
borhood of Rustohuck. A report
prevailed at Constantinople last
night that a great battle had boon
fought between Moteka and Rust
clink, the result of which is un
known. Thus far, however, the
oflicial reports from Turkish head
quarters -only mention an affair with
six Russian battalions.
The Times' special dispatch,
dated St. Petersburg, says that tie
fall of Plovna is still unknown to the
Turks -uncrally, so that it is im.
possible to estimatO its effects on
the population, which, however, will
probably maintain its usual calm.
The Edinburgh &otsman's Lon
don correspondent telegraphs na
follows : "From the most influen
tial quarters a suggestion has been
laid beforo the British Cabinet that
Constantinople be made a free city,
under a guarantoo of protection
from the European Powers.
CONSTANTINOPiE, December 13
Noon.-No overtures for mediation
have yet boon mado to any of the
foreign embassies. (hakir Pasha,
who was alPpointed to replace
Mohemot Ali, has resigned him
command on account of ill health.
THlE TURKs REsoLvED TO FIoHT IT OUT.
CONSTANTINOPLE, December 13.
The news of the fall of Ploevna was
received hoere with calmness and
fortitude. Tho journals urge resis
tance to the last. The Turkish
Parliament was opened to,day by
tile Sultan, all the Turkish dignita..
rnes and foreign ambassadors were
present. Tile speech fron .. the
throne was reserved in tone, and
alluded neither to peace nor media
tioni.
CONeERNINc, PIOPERITY IN WEDDING
PRESENTs.-Tho decision of Judge
Larremore, of New York, in the suit.
of Mrs. Welsh against the executors
of 11cr husband's wvill, to the effect
thlat the butter knives and cake
dishes given as wedding presents
are given to the bride, and not to
the bride and bridegroom jointly,
is mn full accordance with tile com
mon understanding of the persons.
whlo give presents on such occasions..
Perhaps the finding of the jury to.
the effect that the bridal presents.
which Mrs. Welsh confidently
counted as wvorth fifteen hundred
dollars are worth in fact two hund
red and sixteen dollars and forty
four cents is also in accordance with
the hettor informed judgment of the
givers of such things.
Two Arizon~a Miners, K~ellogg and
Carter, quarreled about a claim, and
Kellogg fired on Carter. Fortu
nately, Carter carried a Bible in his
bosom, and that turned the bullet,
and so enabled the p ~lot syotfh to0
hlack Kellogg sufficiently #*hhele
bowie knife. Then Carter fled to
e3scape arrest, and while crassing a
river was drowned, in spite of the
Bible. Moral.-..
