DAuLoNEoA, June .1Q, 1844.
Mr.. Mcfluffie has exposed the inconsis
tency of .Mr; Benton, in relation to the
annexatioin of Texas, in one particular;
*but his self contradiction is almost. unliin&
ited. Thus in his hei ter to the Euditoi-s of
the National Intelligencer 'oE. the ~30th
*April, 1844,hbe says: "Our~tile to die
whole of-Texas had .been vindicated by
Mr. Adams, who showed that tho French
under whom we claimed had established
themselves under La Salle, at the Bay of
St. Beroard, the oldest settlement in the
province, upwards of thirty years beforE
the Spaniards crcssed t'ae Rio Det.Norte."
In his late speech, delivered by him in the
Senate, he says. 'iThe real Texas which
we acquired by the treaty of 1803, and
flung away by the treaty of 1819, never
approached the Rio Grande (Rio del
Norte,) except near its mouth, while the
whole upper part was settled by the Span
iards and great part of it in the year 1694
-just one hundred hears before La Salle
jirst sato Texas."~ In his letter the French
under La Salle had established themselves
in Texas thirty years before the Spaniards
eer saw the Rio del Norte. In his speech
the whole upper part of the same river on
both banks, was settled by the Spaniards
one hundred years before La Salle first saw
1Texas.
This is not the only contradiction. Mr.
Benton affirms in his letter of the 30th
April, 1844. -"Before the establishment
of this boundary (the boundary of 1819) all
the-country to the west of tho lower Mis
sissippi, quite to the Rio del Norte was
ours." Hlere Mr. Benton does not distin
gaish-between old.Texas and new Texas
between the Province and the Republic of
Texas. Hie goes for Texas to the Rio del
.Nortein its whole extent. Yet we find in
-...bs late speech "'that-the real Texas which
weacquired by the treaty of 1803, anid
flung away by the treaty of 1819, never
approached the Rio Grande except nearn
*its month." What is to be thought of a
Statesman thus inconsistent with himself?
What value can he at taecbed t'o his opinion.

suffered severely from drought. Oats in
many places scarcely worth the gathering.
Cotton generally promises well, and alren

are good for a full supply of provisions.
It has rained all around us lately, yet we
have experienced dry weather, with now

The English Cofee Brokers are of opin
ion.that the consumption exceeds the pro
duction, but that it is not, profitable, in
consequence of the iaicreased. value of the
slaves engaged iq cultivating: it. We
'think its cheapness is owing to the excess
of -production, and a diminution of con
sumption. Java has increased 100 per et.
Ihe last five yearsand -the Brazils 70 per
cent.; hut in the West-indies where, there
is a decay of agricultural enterprise, Cof
fee has, .in ihel average, decreased 28 per
cent. In En gland" not much Coffee is
consumed, .and .what is consumed is mixed
with Chickory,- Beans, and otLer adul
terations. Large quantities are used in
every-other part of Europe, and some
what adulterated. The Java.and Suma
tra Coffees, are generally used in Asia,
and:what we use. in this couutry, princi
pally the little green bean.of St. Domingo,
is so cheap, that not much is adulterated.
Old Java .Coffee is of the finest flavor but
contains an oil that does not operate fa
vorably ou the system.. Great diversity of
opinion prevails as - to the best mode of
preparing coffee, and different nations hav.e,
different mod.'s.'. The Turks, who iake
it's constant- beverage. toast, pound,.and
prepare it only when required for imiedi
ate use, and: .consequently; it is made in
small quantities a dozen imes a day, over
'a cbarcoal furnace. The French and
Germans prefer pouring boiling water over
the ground coffee; and'allow the essence
to-drip through a cullender. But.the-true
manner of pressing the aroma. and having
a cup of cuflee. reasonably strong,=not as'
bitter as aloes, is the mode practiced by
the coffee amateurs in this country. They
purchase two or three pounds ol' the ripe
West India little bean, into which they
throw a handful of Java, or Mocha, and
after picking it very. clean, they wash it
tbroughly, and as thoroughly dry ii over,
or -near the fire. When perfectly dry.
it is toastcd gradually until all the beans
are uniformly' of 'a rich. ,brown color.
When warm, the coffee is thrown inio
whites of eggs beat up,'and when cold pla
ced in. a gljtss jar or tin case,-and only
ground a fdw minutes before it is wanted,
and boiled up briskly and left to settle be
fore it is drawn o. It is then clear and
amber, and is a delicious article with
cream and refined sugar. Many. of the
venders of ground coffee mix up poor de
cayed articles, and frequently beans, but it
is cheapest to purchase the true thing at
once, which can be found: of a very good
and. satisfactory quality in the reputable
family groceries.-N. Y. Sun.

little doubt of the rapid promotion of one

he 'carried on" cmier the chase, which

A Practical Farmer informs the Hart

had been sot fourteen years, he noticed
that some of the posts remained nearly
sound, while others were rotted off'at the
bottom. On looking for the cause, he
found that those posts that were set limb
par'down, or inverted from the way they
grew were aOL -''. Those that were set as
the grew were rotted off. This fact is
worthy the attentIon of farmers.
Grafting (rape ines-The late Mr.

ferring to the usual modes of grafting fruit
trees, says:
"But let vines be grafted in this manner
unless the operator knows the particular
requisite for the vine, and the probability
is that he will scarcely succeed once in five
hundred trials. The mode of grafting,
which I practice usually, and which is at
