It is not generally known that coffee which has been beaten is much better thun that which has been ground. Such, however, is the fact; and in bis brief article upon the subject, Sav- arin gives whst he considers the reasons for the difference. As he remarks, a mere deooo> tioo of green coffee is a most insipid drink, but carbonization develops the aroma and au oil, which is the peculiarity of the coffee we drink. lie agrees with other writers, that the Turks excel us in ibis. They employ no mills, hut beat the berry with wooden pestles in mor tars. When long used the pestles become pre cious and bring great prioes. lie determined by aoiual experiment which of the two meth ods wax ibe' beat. He burned carelully a pound of good Mocha, -u.d separated it into i wo equal portious. The oue whs passed through the mill—itie o'her beaten after the Turkish fashion in a mortar. He made coffee of each. Taking equal weights of each, and pouring on an equal weight of boiling water, he treated them both precisely alike. He tasted this coffee himself, and caused other compitcnt judges to do so. The uuanimous opinion was, that cofleo bealeu in a mortar was far better than that ground id a mill. And after mentioning, that any one may repeal the experiment, he tells a strange anecdote of the influence of one or the other kind of manipu lation, viz : 44 Monsieur,” said Napoleon one day to Laplace, 44 how comes it that a glass of water into which 1 put a lump of loaf sugar tastes more pleasantly than if 1 had put in the same quantity of crushed sugar?” 44 Sire,” said the philosophic senator, •* there ure three substances, the constituents of which are iden tical—sugar, guru and arnidon ; they differ on ly in certain conditions, the secret of which nature has preserved I think it possible that in the effect produced by the pestle some sac charine particles become cither gum or ami- don, and cause the diflerence.” This remark became public, and Savarin says ulterior ob- servutions have confirmed the truth of it.— Boston Transient.

Tue census tables of I860 are now nearly complete, aud the grand aggregate of the po pulation of (he United States foots up 31,- C48,8G8. The populatiou of the 19 free States is 18,960,769; of the 16 slave States 12,433,• 409, of whom 3,999,283 are slaves. The in- crease of population in (he free States in (en years has been 6490,680; in the slave States 2,820,494, of whom 798,871 were slaves and 2,021,628 free. The rale of slave increase has been 26 per cent.; of free population in the whole country 38 per cent; in the South 31 per cent., in the North 40 per cent. The po pulation of the Territories and Federal Dis trict is 202,701, hu increase of 141,800 in len years. Of the slave States, Delaware and Ma ryland show a decrease of their slave popula tion, of' which the former has only 1,806 against 2,290 in 1850, while the latter has 86,382 against 90,368, a loss of nearly 6,000. Missourri bus increased her slave population 32 per cent.; but in the meantime* her white population has nearly doubled. The State which has made the least growth in popula tion is Vermont, showing a gain of only 2,707. New York shows the largest aggregate gain, having added 764,169 during the deoade ; but in respect lo ratio of increase, California stands highest, haviog more than quadrupled her population. Iowa has 260 per cent, more than in i860, Texas 180, Arkansas 116, Wis consin 160, Illiuois nearly 100, Michigan ful ly 90. The others are all below 60 per cent, of iucrcaxe, except Minnesota and Oregon, which are omitted as not having been Stales in 1860. The former has now 172,196 inhab itants, and the latter 62,556. In the apportionment of representatives in Congress uuder the new census, ike free Slats* have 160, which is a gain of 1, and the alave Stales have 84, which is a loss of 6.— Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Min nesota, lose 1 each : New York losses 3, Pen- sylvania 2. and Ohio 2.
