Washington and his offi- my own, poured the cream into the sugar basin, and j core rode off, not a little amused at the incident, and and took a bite at the tea-pot lid. “pop the question’ haunted me continually, and I feared to speak, even on the most ordinary topics, lest I should in some way betray myself. Pop, pop, pop! every thing seemed to go offwith a pop; and when at length Mr. Merton hinted to Mary and her mother that it was timo for them to pop on their bonnets, I thought he laid a particular stress ou the horrible monysylable, and almost expected him to accuse me of some sin ister design upon his daughter. It however passed off, and we set oat for the church. Mary Rose leaned upon my arm, and complained how dull I was. I, of course, protested against it, and tried to rally: vivacity indeed, was one of my characteristics, and I was just begining to make myself very agreeable, when a little archin in the thick gloom of a dark en try, let off a pop-gun elate to my car. The sound simple as itinny seem, made me start as if a gliost had stood before me, and when Mary observed that I was “veryNervous this morning,” I felt as if I could have throttled the lad, and inwardly cursed Hie inventor of pop guns, and doomed him to the lowest pit of Acheron. I strove against my fate, however, and made sev eral observations. “look,” cried Mary Rose, as we gained tlic end of a street, “what a beautiful child!” I turned my head to the window, when the first object that met my eye was a square blue paper, .edged with yellow; on which was written in two legible characters, “l’or.” I believe I was surprised into an exclamation stronger than the occasion would seem to warrant, and tlie poor child came in for a share of my anathema. I did’nt intend it, how ever, for I am very fond of children: bat it served Maty Rose to scold me about till we came to the charcb door; and if possible bewildered me more than ever. Wo bud not arrived in middle aisle when ray fair companion whispered to me—“My dear Mr. ,won’t you toko off your hatJ” This was only a prelude to other blunders. I pos ted myself at the head of the seat, sang apart oi the hundreth psalm while the orgau was playing the symphony, sat down when I should have stood up, knelt when I should hare been standing, and just at CHINA AND THE CHINESE. The Ncwbttryporl Herald gives the fol lowing sketch of a lecture which was de livered nt the Lyceum in that town by Hon. Caleb Cushing. Mr. il. has a much better opinion of the intelligence and capacity of the Chinese than those who have had no opportunity of intercourse with tlmt people have been wont to entertain. A large class of the people arc teamed ; as a nation they arc ingenious and industrious beyond others, the whole country is like a bee hive. Learning has thcfirsi ptaccin public estimation, and becks nrc as numerous as in fyiropc. A catalogue which Mr. Cushing had in his possession of a single library, occupied ten volumes. Public measures are debated by the popu lace as much as in the United Slates, and public opinion lias as much influence in Chi na on the government ns with us. The fa tal error ot the Chinese has been in giving too epicurean a diameter to their habits and their government. One illustration of this cited was the fact that at the close of all Icltcrsto one another, the. written salutntion is, “I wish you tranquility and promotion.” They lack only military skill and discipline to'make them a powerful nation, capable of repelling invasion or overrunning contig uous countries; for no men are braver, or die more fearlessly in the ranks. From the tone of Mr. Cushing’s remarks we should infcrtliat lie supposed t hey would ultimate ly attain this military skill and discipline. Mr. C. remarked that the fate of the Chi nese should be a warning to those utopian dreamers among us, who would’ devote nil intellectual and physical effort to the arts of pence, to the extinction of that martial spirit without which independence can nev er be maintained. China docs not need any foreign trade. course, we suppose, he looks not onlv for tho ‘annexation’ of Oregon, but of Califor nia and the whole western coast of Mexico, before tho consummation of this prediction.

SMOKING. Doct. McCauley, of St. Louis; while lecturing be fore the Mechanic’s Institute of that place, recently told tho following anecdote of smoking: “ A young gentleman very much devoted to smok ing, had paid his addresses to a young lady, whose parents objected to the union, merely because he in dulged, as they thought, too freely in the use of to bacco. Tho young lady, however, prepossessed in liis favor, prevailed upon him to abandon the habit, that the union might take place. The antipathy of tho mother, to smoking, continued unabated and she was still skeptical us to die feet of his refer- mation cn that score, and to test her daughter’s ac count that tic had given op the practice of smoking. She invited him to spend a few days atherhouso with the family. r “ No symptom of smoking appeared till one even ing when die mamma, before retiring to rest, fancied ho smelt something like die fumes of tobacco in his bedroom.

Glad am I to find that you have again assumed a position which you so early, long, and bonorebhr occupied, for the purpose of accumulating (acts,'truths, and •principles, on all the numerous branches of rural economy, and reflecting back their concentrated radiance, for tho benefit of that immense portion of the population of these United States who are prac tically engaged in tilling the earth, or delight to dwell in the midst of the naturally grand, as well as tho artificially embellished scenery of tho country. Within this century, more has been done for tho advancement of cultivation, from the humble cot- togcr’8 rood of ground to the broad domain of tho opulent, than in nil preceding time, since the deca dence of the most flourishing empires cf antiquity. Science has come down from her lofty throne, and united the powers of Gcuius and Erudition with thu * physical energies of Art; while tho Agriculturist, Mechanic and Manufacturer liavo discovered that they must be instructed by the lessons of Philosophy and the facts of Experiment, to ensure favorable re sults from laborious enterprise.

The land and water of a country as large as Europe, teems with swarming masses living alike in boats on the rivers and in houses.
