From the N. Y. Daily Advertiser. Cultivation of Cocoa in Cuba.— The Botanical Garden of Havana, for the pur pose of introducing the cultivation of cocoa on an extensive scale in the island, has had a portion of soil devoted to a nursery of young cocoa plants, which may he there pt/iained by the inhabitants. The “ Anales de Ciencias,” the editor of which is the su perintendent of that garden 1 gives us, in a late number general rules to be observed in that branch of tropical agriculture. He complains that he has sought in vajn for the information necessary in encyclopaedias and other works, and finds that no good ac count of the mode of culture is in existence. The directions he gives are founded on ex perience ; and for some of them he is in debted to the notes of an old and practical cultivator. The cocoa belongs to the family of 16th Class, and sth order: monodel phia decandria ; and is known to botan ists by the name of Theobroma Cacoa.— It prefers situations sheltered from the winds and requires a soil rich, moist and at least four feet deep. Hard and clayey ground does not permit the roots to pene trate sufficiently. The best kind of soil is black or reddish with 3 quarter or third part sand and a p.ction of gravel. In such soils it produces abundantly from the third year, and many live for twenty five or thir ty years. lu a strong and humid soil, the tree grows to a large * ze, hut yields less fruit. The product of a well managed co foa plantation is remarkably great. The crop is gathered in portions every month in the year; bur the principal month is De cember, and the next important June. A caballeria of land containing 1 $6,624 square Taras, will sustain nea/lv 9000 plants with out including the trees foi shade and con sequently a plantation • f 30,009 could be easily raised on six caballerias. The plants are pieced at a distance ot half a vera ; and a certain number of shade trees are placed in lines to furnish necessary shelter. When Jbe nutsbi gin to npen they are cut from the branches by negroes with J ng shears, being gathered up by o'hers This ope. ration is repeated os often as necessary ; and the runs being collected in heaps are left for several days to undergo a sort of fermentation which a change of colour and to begin to get dry. The cocoa is exposed to the depredati ons of various animals. Rats devour it, when ripe, the white and red .ant, and the grasshopper arrest it in Some of the early 3tages of its growth. THE TEitf LOST JEWISH TRIBES ! Tin fallowing paragraph lately appealed *n a German paper, uny;*j the bead of ‘ Leipsic.*— “After having seen some years past mer chants from Tiflis, Persia and Arinerja, among the visiters at out fair, we h .ve had, for the fust time, tyvo traders ft cm Bucharia, with shawls, which are there manufactured of tlte finest wool of the goats o( Thibet and Cashmere, by the Jewish families, which form a third part of (he population. Jn Sucharia,(formerly thecapital of Sogdiana J the Jews have been very numerous ever the Babylonian captivity, and are there as remarkable for their industry and manufactures, as they are in England for their money tiatu* ctions. It was not till last year that the Russian government suc ceeded in extending its diplomatic mission into Bucharia. The above traders ex .changed their shawls for course a/id fine Woollen cloths of such colors as are most * esteemed in the East.” The existence in Bucharia of so large a body of Jews was unknown, it is said, to any of our Geographers—and the question *4j;\s arisen. henc.3 have they proceeded, and how have they come to establish them selves in a region so remote from their original country 1 The Editor of the Cale donian Mercury thinks that this question can only be answered by supposing that these persons are the descendants of the long-lost Ten Tribes, concerning ,sh<s 4 fate of which Theologians, historians, and aiiu jquarians have been alike puzzled —The Editor remarks— However wild this hypothesis may at first appear, ihere are * t wanting circumstan ces to render it far from being improbable. ‘ Jo the 1 7ih chapter of the Second Book of Ktogs, it is said, “ In the ninth year of! H sea, King of Assyria, took Samaria, • and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Helah and in **abor, by the river of Gozan and in the cities of the Modes; ana in the subsequent verses, as we!! as in t lie writings of the, Prophets, it is -* a id, that the Lord then “ put away Israel l ’ .out of his sight, and carried them away into ‘ \he land of Assyria, unto this day 1 in the , Apncraphy, 2d, Edras xit, it is said, that ’ the Ten Tribes were carried beyond the ..river and so they were brought into anothet land, when they ti|ok c< ousel together, that they would leave the multi- ! tude of the heathen, and go forth in.oa! Juither country, where never mankind dwelt ; that they entered in at i.w narrow passage of the river -Euphrates yvhen the spiings of ilie flood were flayed, and 1 went through the country a great j urnev, even in nj/eur and a half; and it isacded, that there they wiil remain, until the latter time, when they will come imyh again. The country beyond Bucharia, was unknown lo the ancients ; and, it is, we believe,gene rally admitttdj, that the river Gozan, men tioned in the book of kings, is the sane as “Inch has its rise in tin se very countries in which the Jews resale, of whom the Leipsic account speaks. Tlie distance which tliese two merchants must have travelled, cannot, therefore, be le<*s than three thousand mites; and there can be lit.de doubt that the Jews, whom they re present as a third part of the population of the county, are defendants of the Te Tides of Israel, settled byjhe river Gza r, rue great plain of central Asia, forming .four principal sides, viz. Litile Bucharia, Thibet, JVL.sgalia, and Mmtchouse, con tatus a suiiace ol X 5,009 square miles, and a population of 20,pJ30,000. This vast country is still very litile known. Tin great traits of its gigantic formation, con* pose for the part all that we are cer tain of. It is an immense plain ct an ex cessive elevation intersected with barrel, rocks and vast deserts, of black and almost moving sand. Ij is supported on all sides by mountains of granite, whose elevated summits determine the different climates of] the great continent of Asia, and form the] division on its waters, from i's exterior’ flow all the great rivers ot tliaj part of the 1 world. In the interior are a quantity of rivers, having Ifitle declivity, or no issue, w hich are lost in the sands or pet haps feed stagnant waters. In the southern chains nre countries, populous, rich and civilized: Little Bucharia, Great and Little Thibet The people of the north are shepherds and wanderers Their riches consist in their herds. Their habitations are tents and towns and camps, which are transported according to the vAmts of pasturag *. The Bucharians enjoy the right of trading to all parts of Asia, and the Thibetians cultivate the earth to advantage. The anci- nts had only a confused idea of Centra] Asia.— ‘ The inhabitants of the country, as w’e learn from a great authority, are in a high i state of civilization ; possessing all the use ! ful manufactures, and lofty houses built with ptnne. The Chinese reckon [hut this is evidently an exaggeration] that Thibet ; alone contains 33,00Q,p00 of persons.— The merchants of Cashmere on their way . ] to Yarkand in Litile Bucharia, pass through Little Thibet. The country is scarcely i known to European Geographers.’ The ; immense pjaip of Central Asia is hemmed in, and almost inaccessible by mountain ranges of the greatest elevation, which sur round it on all sides except China : and wbeu the watchful jealousy of the govern ment of the Celestial Empire is considered, it will scarcely be wondered at that the vuat region in question is so little known. Such is the country which these newly discovered Jews are to inhabit in such numbers. The following facts may per haps serve to throw so, e additional light on ibis interesting; subject la the vear 1822, a Mr, Sargojl, who if tve msi *k< not, was one of ihe agents to i 64 London S* viety communicated t* Eng land some interesting accounts of a number of persons resident ai B inbay, Cannamore, and tiieir vicinity 9 who aie evidently the descendants of lews s calling themselves B hi Israel, and bearing almost uniformly, J*u;.:, name.', but with Persian terminati < ns* } his gentleman feeling very desirous i - 11 -* obtaining all possible knowledge of their condition, undertook a mission for this pur pose to Cannamore ; and the result of Ins inquiries was, a conviction that they were not -ews of the one tribe and a half, being of a different race to the white and black Jews at Cochin and consequently that they wore a remnant of the long lost Ten Tribes. 1 fns gentleman also concluded, from the information he obtained respecting the Be m-Israel, that they • xist=?d in great num* he is ot tiie countries Cochin and Bombay, the north of Persia, among the boider> of Tariary, and Cashmere; the very countries in which, according to the .Paragraph in the German paper, they exist in such numbers. So far, then, these ac counts confirm each other,* end there is Very probability', that Hie Beni-Jsrael, resident on the west of the Indian peninsula, h and originally proceeded from Bucliaria. It udl therefore be interesting to know some thing of their £poral and religious character.— The following particulars are collected from Mr. Saigon’s accounts. X In dress ami manners they resemble the natives, so as *>t to be distinguished from them except by attentive observations and iuquiry 2. T hey have Heurew names of the same kind, and with the same local termination s the epoys in’ the 9ih region m Bombay N live Infantry. 3. Bonn of them read Hebrew, and they have a faint tradition of tile cause of afi.eir original exodus,.from E g>ti. 4. Their common Jangjuage is the Hindoo. 5. They keep idols and worship, and use idolatrous c remonies iuteimixbd with 6 They circumcise their owa children. 7- ITity observe the Kip por, or great expiation-day of the Heb lews, but not the Sabbath day or any feast or fast days. 8 They ca|j themselves Corah Jehndi, or While JeWs, and they term the Black Jews Collah 9* They speak of the Arabian Jews as their brethren, but do acknowledge the JEu ropean *ews as such, because they are of a fairer complexion than themselves. 10. They use on all occasions and under the most trivial circumstance, the usual Jewish j prayer,— ‘ Hear, O Israel, the Lo and our God is one Lord.’ 11.; They have no ; cohen, [priest] levite,or kasi, among them, under those terms; but, they have a kasi [reader] who performs prayers and con ducts religious ceyemonies ; and they ! appear to have eiders and a chief in each | community, who determine’ ia their religi ous concerns 12. They expecl (lie Mes- ‘ siah, and that they will one day ref urn to Jerusalem. ..They think that the timd of Ins appearance will sornanive, at which .tin y much rejoice, believing that at eru salem they will se* their God,” worship him only, and be despised no more Antcduie of a Monkey.. —A dr.dJ story ts mated of one vt these creatures that had been l,ng kept by Fere Car bossan, and was extremely attached to'him.

TTl ,e preacher now began to grow angry and ‘ in she warmth of his displeasure, redoubled his vociferations and his gesiures ; he thum ped the pulpit with earnestness raised his hands on high and accompained their ino iiops with a corresponding nod of the head. The monkey repeated all these gestures with the most grotesque mockery till at last the’congrrgntion had no power over themselves but burst out into one loud aud successive fir of laughter. The preacher stood aghast at this unacoumable folly and disrespect and would piobably have left the church had not ope of his friends stepped up to him and pointed out the cause of !His extraordinary behaviour. On looking up it was with the greatest difficulty lie could command his own countenance ahd pre serve the serious aspect of his scored char acter whilst the officers belonging to the church were employ ed in removing the comical intruder from his situation. ‘ ; / From the N. Y. Courier. KEEP OUT OF THE KITCHEN. “Where ignorance is bliss, “Tis folly to be w ise.”— Gray. “You are too inquisitive.”— Paul Pry. “ Curiosity caused the expulsion of our first parents from Paradise.”—- Somebody else . £n<-ur c<dlege-d ;y s, we ofit£ strolled into the kitchen of the great hall, being “naturally curious” to learn * how cooking was managed on a sc tie so extensive as to meet the wants o|* some two hundred students. It was a quarter of an hour be fore bteakfast, and nti enormous kettle, Ail ed with coffee (is it was denominated,) hung gloomily ovet the fire. As its con fanis boiled and bubbled, we observed ever and‘anon some dark substance, evidently too large to be a grain of coffee, raising to the surface, and instantly ducking down, as if its deeds were evil What was ii?— Os tint very same liquid in filteen minutes we were to partake; we were to persuade ourpalafe that it ws bonafide coffee, des pite of all insinuations that it was made of poplar le<7>es and damaged rye. What could that mysterious black substance bet Was it a sturgeon, or a negrue’s head, or a stick of wood, or a stove pipe? The ques tion was one of great peisonal interest— curiosity took the alarm—our evil star had provided a cam -—we plunged it in the boiling ocean before us, and raised to the f*r light of the laughing morn, an old hat. He vtns! what a discovery—even *uow we tremble at the horrid recollection. in a ft w minutes we were in Hie break fast hall, carrying the hat on the rain’s point. There were our class-nu tes masticat ing, with all their might, the tough- si bread in Christendom, and pouring down their devoted throats’ cup after clip of rh *t infer nal beverage [Reader, permit u* to be come I fora few minutes. V £ sounds so outlandish in a dialogue.] I tooK mv place next to my friend Frank Stanley. “'if rank, what are you drinking J •'Coffee.“ “Will yoyjtake your oath of that? * “ yv hat the deuce do you meaif? * “I have been in the kitchen—l have made a tenihle discovery—-put down that cup for mercy s sake!” [Here the whole table caught the alarm;! “speak ouij speak out, 1 ’ resounded on all sides.] “Fallow Juniors, you fondly imagine that you have been di inking coffee—no such thing— rVou have been drinking Hat Soup—hc;_e is the Hat up the still reeking and horrid mass, which bad sewn boiled into a polygon]—five min nt s ago I fished this out of the coffee-ket tlo!” That same Junior Class was compost'd of as may reckless dare-devils as were ever congregated under one rooff—they car ed nothing for thunder-claps, or stages in the process of being capsized—they had once set at defiance all the militia of- county; but this discovery was too much for them—every one was appalled, and tluy all left the room muttering execra tions. Ti.at night the cook was tarred and feathered, and rode on a rail, and the keep er of the bail was burnt in effigy. I never tor k another cup of college c.vffee. The story has its moral. Curiosity, which kicked Eve out o Eden, and sent Dr. Faustus io OldNich* hs (familiarly and endearingly called Old Nick J is as fatal to the physical as it is to the intellectual ap-j petite. The tree of knowledge is not the Tree o| Ibe—and if we gather the fruit of the forme , we lose our rellish for the latter. Reader, if you are inclined to pinquitude; you live in an alter dinner dread of ap oplexy in three weeks you will be as thin as.Cassius, without his “hungry look. * But if you wish to enjoy the good things of life, seek not to be too wise, and above all things Keep out .of the Kitchen ! So with the Stage. The time was when we hung with breathless inletest on the mimic scene. But, one fatal night, we went behind the scenes. W e took a glass of wine with Virginia cracked a joke with Appius Claudius, and made our best bow to Virginia just after the old man had kili ed net jn the market. The charm was ’ roken—ilhe golden chain of imagination was severed—it has never been re-united. From the Boston Commercial Gazette. RUSSIAN MANNERS. An interesting anecdote illustrative of Russian manners is ibid by a gentleman who has recently travelled in the north of , Europe. An officer in the prime of man hood, of high rank in the Russian army, was appointed by the emperor Alexander to the command of a remote province of the empire. On his arrival at the chief town <d his government, he was visited by the Mobility and great officers of the district, and, among the rest by a certain count, whom he recognised as one of his old class mates at a military school, where they had parted in hostility, on account of an insult received by the count, which lie had not courage to resent. Os all the visitors this count was the must overpowering in his civilities. Meeting the governor as one whom he had never, seen before, he en deavored to give the impression that they had ajwuys been strangers to each other To his new ruler, he spoke as iJ;ie had no remembrance of his person or name, and played his part so well, that the former was almost convinced that the youthful quarrel had escaped his recollection. Knowing, however, the duration of a Russian resent ment, the governor prudently resolved to be *jpon Ins guard. Still every thing con tinued to proceed smoothly*, and the smiles and ciyilities of the count continued to he lavished upon his old enemy, and nothing occurred to awaken suspicion or to cloud their mutual courtesies. At length the count appointed a day for giving a great fete at his castle This castle was situated ou a rough and difficult tract of country, protected by mountainous defiles yet but a few miles distant from the head quartets of the governor. To this castle his excel lency was invited, to attend tp the feast, which wvjs t<; he adorned with all the splen dors and magnificence of the Russian no blesse He accepted the invitation, but after he had done so, was visited by certain dpujits as to the sincerity of his host, not withstanding the complete oblivion to which a period of twenty’ y ears, had apparently consigned the resentment of the count.— He took the precaution therefore to order a body of dragoons, twenty of whom should be provided with stirrup leathers or leathern thongs, to follow him privately, and when the clock should strike nine, to close round the castle, while the subaltern officer in command proceeded to report himself to him, however he might be. To this officer the orders \vei\e strict. No mailer when, how, of about what, the goverim. might be engaged when the clock struck nine the officer must be in his presence ami ready to receive his commands. After giving these orders the governor repaired to tpe fete. He was received with great polite ness, and greeted with every demonstration of respect. The halls were decked with oriental magnificence. Barbaric pearl and gold were literally showered upon the splendid draperies of the ample halls, and tiie dresses of the ladies glit'ered with jew ellery. Rich music formed by a concert of horns, bn which each performer is taught to sound only a note, so that there must be as many performers as there are ; notes in the gamut, in order to play a single tune, and an immense number to compose a band, was pouring forth iis inspiring har mony. Plumes were nodding, bright eyes vveie gLuring, generous wines were spark- i ling, and every thing was in accordance with festivity and joy. Still the governor ‘Waived that of all the guests, whether la-I lies or the noblemen, not one was present who was not connected by blood or marri age with the lord of the castle. He gave himself up to tiie fascination of the scene, however, enjbyad the splendid arrange ments, suffe.ed himself to be led from the grand saloon to the library, from the library to the picture hall, /min the pictures to the cabinet of genius, through the variety of apartments which had been prepared for the gratification of a refined and’luxurious taste, until at length observed that of those who had attended him there were oiky six who remained, all the nearest blood relations lo the count. His p;se of manner continued, and he moved forward with them towards tiie cabinet of minerals, when, as he was passing through a jui.dler apart ment the doors were suddenly shut and fastened, and himself seised and bound at once, without the slightest noti-cp of the in tention. His doubt then became a very unsatisfactory certainty. Tiie count pro claimed his hatred, reminded him of their ancient quarrel. and proceeded with the assistance oi his kinsman to strip the hack of his enemy, ana to inflict a severe flagel- upon his naked body. Aftet gratifying their malignity with this , infliction, the count and his kinsmen direct- ’ ed their guest to return to the dancing room aud display his disgrace to the company, by dancing tiil sppper time. Fhe governor ! who had not ftom the first betrayed the slightest expression of suffering, walked with a firm step, and a manner not iu the I least confused to the ball room, and accost ing one of the ladies desired the honor of her hand for the dance. The lady only! laughed in his face. He tried another and i another with the same success ’ .The shrill ’ voice of temale derision, and sneers, and jests aud ridicu'e v/.ere heard in every part of the apai nient, coward aud cowskin* and a variety of other delightful juxapositinns, | were bandied about with great alacrity. \ Si ill the composure of the high bred gover- j nor, was imperturbable. He had now ask ed the hand ot every lady in the room, but one ot w honi he had purposely omitted ’till the last, for she was the loveliest of them all, and had a sweet and compassionate ex pression of countenance, and did not jojn in the general laugh, and looked as if she could not hai'e the heart to wound the feel ings of a slave. To this lady he now ad vanced and begged thai she would honor him, £Q much as to be .his partner in tiie merry ring. She consented and he had just led her to commence the waltz, when as his features were beginning for the first time to assume an appearance of anxiety, the clock nine. He listened a mo ment he heard nothing?—his features grew darker-—he listened again, and the heavy tramp of a dragoon s foot steps greeted his ear Presently, in marched the fierce and whiskered subaltern, taking his way straight through the bgyy of ladies and gay noble men, who shrunk from him in breathless stilliies, he jiroceeded to his master and making his military salute, awaited his or-*’ ders. I hen for the first time, the gover um’s manner changed entirely.
