Focm things are absolutely essential in i Irtgh rose culture?n rich and deep soil, ju-' dicious pruning, freedom from insects, Mild i watering when requisite. If any one of these It* wrong, the success will bo in pmjMirtioti incomplete. Soil is the first consideration ; what is teriu*-i a sound loam, they nil delight in; the soil should be adapted to the stock rather than the scion, or kind wwkwl it. The connnou, or dog-rose stock thrives best on stnmg loamy soil, iu halfshaded situations near water without manure; cultivated nates require the latter hocan-e they lyirM more hard work to do ; their amount Uf blossom, if weight alone las allowed as a ???i, w on in, in in mi twos, uotiiMT ami IreMy exceed tiiMt of the dog rose?added to which they have less foliage. U Mies. ?h? iltrir own roots, require that the soil be modified according to kind; wo should wn kmc w iiutH-Mtc a M?ii to j) l ea or llourbon rose as to ordinary kinds ; organic matter is here required. iJepth of soil is of great importance to all kinds; it is the deep-, er series of fibre*, shunted in a proper mediun, that sustaim a good sncccssiot: of flow era, in defiance of heat and drought. Judicious pruning reduces the rainonnt j growths, and increases the energies of those which aro of a more delicate constitution, relieve*, from superfluous shoots and useless wood, and reduces the whole outline to a 1 compact or consistent form. Insect ravages must he guarded against?tobacco water or J fames will do this; bathing them twice a day , with water from a barrow-eiigino is only ob- , jeciionable from the time reouirod.

The South Carolina Rail Road Company like most monopolies is arrogant, assuming, and overbearing.

In reference to thin matter, now undergoing investigation in Charleston, the C'harlet ton Standard says: "The principal facts in this case are generally known; though it may be well to mention, for the benefit of those who may not have seen the evidence which we published at the timo when the case was first examined, that tho vessel, in the latter part of July last, was bound 011 a voyage from New York to China; that when out some sevent+49H tlf*V*% ill# - H'jui fVMf fill tl^ftti his berth. I'pon his lies I were wounds which seemed to hare been inflicted by an axe or a hatchet; his throat was cut, and there were two stabs as though made by a knife in the breast. The berth in which he was found lying, at about seven o'clock in the morning, wa- saturated with blood, the partition was also spattered. A hatchet was found, with clots upon it, upon both the hammer ami the Made, and the there was everywhere the indication of a most brutal and remorseless murder. The body was ! placed in a barrel of brine, and the vessel in command of the first mate, one of the parties now charged, was brought into the port of UlinrfattiMi, w liure, an examination being , had, tin* two l?oys, George Anderson and , Henry Giraud, were put in jail to aiawcr lor the crime. Against Giraud, however, no indictment has laren found l>y the Grand Jury,and only U-ikenian and Anderson of i the ship's crew huve been j>ut upon their trial." The St. L<>tii? (Mo.) JVrw* says it is thought that during the past six months over leu thousand person* have settled in the j enmities of Northeast Missouri. Such was j'the runs to Adair, Scotland, Schuyler and I Putnam counties, that hundreds of families have been forced to etect canvass tents in . the heart of large prairies to shelter them . from the wintry blasts. The quarter from which these people came is not mentioned, but from their settling in the noithern part, of Missouri, it is likely that they came from tho Western free States. A great impetus has been given to tho improvement of that district by the progress of n railroad now ! under construction through it, from the Mis , vissippi rirer to Kansas territory.

A coin pany partly composed of the proprietors ol i the Columbia mine, are about to open the Parks mine in the same neighborhood, t which promises to yield an averago of $20Q a ton of the precious metal. The propria tors of these mines count on an aggregate 1 product of nlMMtt $25,000 per month.
