Th* Great Chunut lYttr-On the one aide of Mount jBtao, there la afunoua oheannt tree, whloh Is said to be one hundred and ninety-six feet In dream* fcrtfnoejast above the aurfeoe of the ground. Its enormous trunk Is separated Into fire divisions, which rives to It the appearance of several trees growing together. In a circular space, formed by these large branches, a hut has been e.cted for the accommoda tion of those who collect the cbesnuts. The Ivory-Nut IW«i—The Ivory-nut tree la popu larly called the Tagua-plant, and is common in South America. The tree is ono of the numorous family or palms, but belongs to tho order designated screw pine tribe. The natlvea use their leaves to cover their cottages, and from the nuta make buttons and various other article*. In an early state, the nuts contain a aweet milky liquid, whloh afterwards assumes a solid* lty nearly equal to ivory, and will admit of a high polish. It is known as the Ivory nut, or vegetable ivory, and has recently been brought into use for va* .* IhiBrazil Nut 2Vff^-Tho Brasll-nnt tresis may justly command tho atteutlon of tho enttraeastic naturalist. Tho tree thrives well In the province of Brasil, and immense quantities of its fruit are ex ported to foreign countries. It grows to a height or from fifty to eighty feet, and Its appearance Is one or the most makstlo ornaments of the forest. The fruit, In Its natural position, resembles a cocoa-nut. being extremely hard, and about tho also of a child's head. Each one of these oonttfina from twelve, to twenty of these nuts nicely packed together. And to obtain the nuts as they appear In market those shells havo to be broken open. During the season of their falling It is dangerous to enter the groves where they abound, as the force of their descent Is enough to knock down the strongest man, The natives, however, provide themselves with wooden bucklers, which they hold over their'heads while collecting tho fruit from the ground. The Cannon Ball TYw.—Among tho plants of Guinea, one of the most curious is tho cannon ball tree. It grows to the height of sixty feet, and Its flowers are remarkable for beauty and fragrance, and contradictory qualities. Its blossoms are of a deli cious crimson, appearing in large branobes and ex haling a rich perfume. The fruit resembles enormous cannon balls—hence the name. However, some say it has been so called because of the noise which the balls make in bursting. From the shell domestic utensils are made, and tho contents contain several kinds of acids, besides sugar and gum, and furnish the materials for making an excellent drink in sick ness. Butsingular as it may appear, this pulp, when In a perfectly ripo state, is very filthy, and the odor from it exceedingly nnple&sant. The Bread Fruit Tree This treo is found on the Islands of the Pacific Ocean. The trunk rises to the height of thirty and forty feet, and attains the size of a man’s body. The fruit grows about tho size of a child’s head. When used for food it is gathered dc* fore it is folly ripe, and baked among the ashes, wheu It becomes a wholesome bread, and in taste somewhat resembles fresh wheat bread. This is a very useful tree to the natives, for, besides its fruit, which jup- S ilos them with food, its trunk furnishes titular for loir bouses and canoes, tho gum which exudes from it serves as pitch for their vessels, aud from the fibres of tho inner bark a cloth is made to cover their per sons. The Cow Tret—This tree isanatlvo of Venezuela, South America. It growa in rooky situations high in the mountains. Baron Von Humboldt gives tho fol lowing description of it: " On the barren flauk of a rook grows a tree with dry and leatberly loaves; its large woolly roots can scarcely penetrate into tbe stony soil. For several months in the year not a single shower moistens its foliage. Its branches appear dead and dried : yet an pooh as the trunk is pierced, there flows from It a rich and nourishing milk. It Is at sunshine that, this vegetable fountain is most abundant. The natives are then to bo seen hastening from all quarters, fur nished with largo bowls to receive tbe rallk, which grows yellow and thickens on tho surface. Some drain their bowls under tho treo, while others carry home the juice to their children; and. yon might fan cy, as the lather returned homeward with the milk, you Baw tbe family of a shepherd gathering around vn receive from him the production of his flock. Tho milk obtained by incisions made in the trunk is tol erably think, free from all acridity, and of an agreea ble and balmy smell. It was oflered as In the shell of tho calabask tree. We drank a considerable quan tity of |t in the ovoning before going to bod, and vory early In the morning, without experiencing the slight est iqjnrious effect.’ 1 A Strange Remedy. ^•Tho Paris corroapondent of the Daily Register, of Philadelphia, tells some of the strangest stories of do ings in tnat strange city, which we see any where.— . He lias very extensive means of procuring informa tion, or a very extensive Imagination—we know not yot which. The following, it will bo soon, la Btatcd »a a fact: “A singular fact, deserving of attention, has Just been reported to tho Medical Academy of Paris, and many of the faculty were engaged in experiments which may result in discoveries of priceless value of the human family. 11 A poor bird-fancier, living In ono of tho fau bourgs, and earning a modest income by raising birds for the market, bos a child of three years and a half old, afflicted since Its birth with a pulmonary complaint. Bix mouths ago tbe doctors told the father that tho child’s lungs were nlmost entirely dustroyed, and that it could uot live long. After three months since, tho little creature seeming to bo perishing rapidly, : and becoming each day moro and more fretful, the mother placed ils cradle in tho large room where tho; birds were kept,thinking that the child might beamus- /-• lytarge, comprising nonrly twenty-live thousand bags or ail kinds.

The Court of Bishops re-assembled at Camden, N. J., on tbo morning or tbo 8tk instant. In reference to the motion of tho respondent, the court responded that the paper prepared by tho Dio cese should not go In the journal. In reply to Bishop Doane’s request, that tho note of remonstrance prepared by the s»mo com ini Wee should go in tho Johrnal, It was decided that It might.

Ho thinks the corn this fall, in the counties alluded to, will Bcarooly command over 12fc cents nor bushel, and tho yield of cotton will by far exceed that of any former year. This will bo gratifying news to immi grants. Tho San Augnatino Herald, ot tho 20th ult, learns that tho cotton worm has made its appearance la some portions of that county. Tho weather had been favorable for tho worm tbo previous few weeks. We learn from the Leon Pioneer that CentrevHIo, on the 10th ultimo, was visited by a Htorra of wind and rain. It fears that considerable damage has been done to tbo cotton crop. Considerable timber was blown down. Tho Bastrop Advertiser, of tho 27th alt., says :— Notwithstanding the fears of some ot the farmers that the cotton crop would bo cut short, Borne timp since, all are now well satisfied that a fair average crop will bo made. The New Capitol.—Tbo Austin Gazette says: A hasty visit to the uew Capitol enables us to say that the now edifice is rapidly progressing to completion. Tbe structure of the roof Is nearly completed, a por tion of it shoetod and ready to receive tho covorlng. The building even now presents an imposing ap pearance, and will be, when finished off, a magnifi cent edifice, creditable alike to the architeutsand tbo State. It is built, too, of home material entirely— emphatically a specimen of homo manufactures. Tho contractors, we understand, feel confident of having the legislative halls ready for tiie reception of the next Legislature. We also walked over and through tho edifico erect ing by Mr. DeChaumes for a Treasurer's and Comp troller’s office. The first story is completed and tho arches all turned, and Mr. DeChaumes informed ns that he would have the entire edifice completed by the lat of December, ready to be occupied.

Tho cost for In spection is nominally nothing, being only, we think, one cent per barrel, paid by tbo manufacturer. Tbe cqmmission of tlio Baltimore merchant Li only about twelve and a half ceuts. with no charge for labor or cooperage.

July,!..-, m.™.. federation, in which the ** sovereignty- freedom and independence 1 ' ot each is fully guarantied. I In 1787 the present constitution was adopted, which is mere-' ly an amendment of tbeartloles of confederation— This constitution was framed in couventicu by tho dolegatca of tho sovereign States of tho confederacy, and subeoquontlyratllledbycacliin its bighost sov ereign capacity—a convention of delegatei elected by tuo people. To show tbe perfect indopeadence of thosoverat States, wo bAve only toreour tt the im portant historical feet that North CarolUik did nftt ratify tho constitution for three years, and bight, if she had seen proper, have remained rot to life present hour. Somo of tbo other States rcmalued out of the Union forsome time, on account of scruples' respect ing some of tho features of the new goveronlent The conBltuUon or the United Btata spoclflea dis tinctly the powers of the Federal Govetament.acd de clares that" the powers not delegated to tho U. States by this constitution, nor prohibited by it to tbe States, are reserved to the States respectively or to tttt peo ple." The Government of tbe United States, thou, can exercise no powers ekoept such as are d 1st!hotly specified in the constitution, or are dearly necessary to carry into effect tho specified poWera ; and when ever any brnnah ol the Federal Government trans cends tua legitimate authority of tho eonstitition, and thus Infringes upon tbe rights of the States, such acts have no binding force, and cannot Iroperiy bo carried into effect. As Mr. Jefferson declared, they " are altogether void and of no force." 1 The truth is, tbo doctrine of State-rigbta is tho doctrine of the constitution—so understood by ail the Democratic politicians in itbo Union. Mr. * l Wllml "«- 5 00 *Io n ion—thaf much sbu^d ami much mlsun. dentood doctrine of tho rights Hit Slates, th„t fflorioun grand, amliubllmo conception of ttMco-eqiml riKiftLW’Hw Htatem ono In the presence of tho awir, uhlch to-dny is called secession, nnd to-morrow dUuUnn. by whatercr name of reproach a wlso man may see (Uu Blander It, that which Is, In truth, tlio original cardinal sprit of tho consti tution of tho United States." \ But is a man a dlBunionlats because ho believes in the rights of tho States? Far i‘rom|it. He is the only true friend of tho constitution—<f tho govern ment of the Union. Tbe only possible) way to per petuate our government is to preservcltlio rights of the States; or, in the language of Mr. ludlson, in the Virginia Resolutions of 1798, a fulthfa'observauce of tho principles of the constitution “ car alone Becuro its existence and tho public happiness" Each of the States of this Union iave a perfect government; and they afford the mah protection to the persons and property of tlio citiins. The laws and Institutions of our State are nrould us, about ub. We look to them for protection, and tr tho security or our lives and happiness. Tho Gonmraent or the United States is distant from us—basbut little to do with our daily pursuits and with our jrdinary inter ests, but still it is important. It attends to all for eign matters and all matters of geniral concern to tbe nation. One great error prevails in some minds, that our Government would fell to pieces, if qot held togeth er by force. No forco could keep thbStatos together, h they desired a separation. Tho Oiion, in such an event, would prove truly a rope or stud. The Union was formed in the first place by choidi and a common an< * ^ continues from tlio lame motives.— What led Texas to apply for admission into 1110 Union 7 Interest, choice. She conli have maintain ed her independence, but she preferred a union with the stars and stripes, not for defenm particularly, but her interests and tho happiness of ker people would bo promoted by annexation. If tho doctrino of State-rights is earried ont fully in tho administration of the Gmernl Government, our system might be safely extcmled over tho whole of this continent. Each local community, with its local laws and institutions, and a general government to attend to the general nffuirs of \he nation, exter nal and internal, a Stutes-rights man is the only true Union man. From the N. O. Crescent. The Noble Charity. [Tbo following, from our ftlr correspondent, Dora Lyons, giving glimpses of a visit to the Iuliriuuries, will bo read with interestEhs. Crescent. I Iiavo visited one of the Infirmaries established by tho Howard Association, situated on Magazine- street, between Basin and Robin. On entering that commodious and airy hulking, I was forcibly struck with tlio air of cleanlinefl and order which seemed to pervade It. The first floor I found occupied by grown persona, and on eiery side, upon neatly ar ranged beds, were some oftbe suffering and destitute of our population, prostrated by the fearful malady which for the last two fuontlis has been raging throughout onr city. M*st ofthem, and indeed I may say all, were foreigners; many, no doubt, who had but recently landed on uur Uo-qiitahlc shores— yet they were surrounded by kind andclficiout nurees, ready to attend III their slighter want, j To escape starvation onu oppression in their own I land, they flee to tills country for refuge, and though their lot may seem to be cast in a city where pestl- louco is wont to invade, yet, when stricken by dis ease, whore can tbo poor sufferer obtain Writer and more Immediate relier.than is here bestowed? Where can there be found more prompt undskilful physicians, more excellent anil attentive purees, than among the kind heartod, benevolent and sympathizing inhabi tants of New Orleans? • . One of tho convalescing informed mo that sho nev er could wish for kinder treatment than she had re ceived both from tbo plijticiau and nurse who attend ed her during her illnek Sho also mentioned the unremitting attentions o tho charitable Indies who are bestowing thoir time n making garments for the needy and daily visiting ho establishment. Noexpenso is spared, i id every things tlmt can bo done is now doing for th relief of tbe sufferers. Of the physicians, who remJ r voluntary aid to this As sociation, no one can sju k in tevnw of commenda tion too highly. Thoir t^no is devoted in administer- ing to tbo wauts of the ifetressed. and they are un wearied in visiting nil accjons or the city. After spending some tine in tho lower department, I passed to the upper storj, where were groups of children—in my estimation ono of tho most interest ing features of tho Infirmary. Some, freed from disease and ranvnlesclng, were upon tlio bnlcony. Neatly dressed iwq unable to re alize their orphnn condition, they were piftyjug and amusing themselves in various ways. Dtficrs were lying upon their couches, which, being dccr^-d w ith sprigs of the orange tree, produced nu agrenam*. *—» cheerful effect. Upon one bed was a poor little suf ferer, moaning nt intervals and looking for relief into the faces,.r those around him. Being unable to spook lie won supposed to bo deaf and dumb, and the feel ing, kind-hearted matron was Irving in vain to dis cover tlio cause of his distress. Nut lar front him re clined a lovclv little girl about Iwo yenrs of age, with fair hair and liazol eyes. SI;o had just awakened from her slumbers nnd lay in a composed manner seemingly, disposed to canao no unnecessary trouble. Upon another couch were two infants, not more than six or eight months old, both in a tranquil sleep*— Then there was a pale sickly little ore, borne about tho room in the arms of her nurse. In ono corner was a uoblo looking babe, with dark brown hair anil large blue eyes. Supported by his nurso, lie was sweetly smiling in tlio fnee oi anoHier interesting child who apparently Imd but just teamed to take tho flvst tottering footsteps of infancy. Who can witness scenes like thoso Vithout feeling some solicitude for the future wolfare if those little ones wlio are mado orplinus by this telrible epidem ic ? Many of them iu a few years will undoubtedly be promising aud intelligent boys aid girls, and wherever their destinies may iio, wlen questioned concerning thoir parents, how often wll the reply bo that they died in New Orleans ofyellav fever in the fearful summer of 1853 ?. Much praise is due to tlio liberal qindod inhabi tants of our own and other cities of mi 1 land. Could all of thorn be eye-wltiiosses to tho effeit of thoir con tributions in alleviating the sufferings \f the misera ble and afflicted, thoy would bo amplyrewarded for their benevolence. Should ono of our Njrthern cities be visited with a pestilence similar to tUg which has fallen on us, I think I can with assurany say that the people of New Orleans would bo amiig tlio lira! to render prompt and cillcicnt aid. \ May tho sympathy and good feeling Manifested throughout the country be the means of driving clo ser the band of union of these United StatoB.nnd may tho dreadful epidemic now gradually leaving us be instrumental in tho All-wise Providence of God in f iroduclng a change in the moral nnd religbus wel- are of onr Crescent City. Dora Lyons. New Orleans, Sept.6,1853. Yellow Fever at Tlilbodans By tho arrival yesterday evening ol tho I/onnldson- vilie packet R. M. Jones, Capt. Rogan, the reports previously received here, oi tno prevalence of yellow fever at Thibodaux, are fully confirmed. Tho Miner va of Saturday, 3d instant, states that tho disease is of tho most malignant type, and has created a panic among the citizens verging on frenzy. All places of business are closed. The streets are deserted, and look moro like a path in the wlldcraess than the pub lic thoroughfares of a thriving commercial town of 1500 Inhabitants. Tho citizens are flying in every direction to get, If possible, beyond the pestiferous atmosphere which seems to hang orer and around onr before salubrious village. Up to the 27th ult.. tho number of cases was 22} on the evening of tho samo day tho number had greatly increased. Mr. Anderson, ofthe Minerva, was attacked while en gaged In making up tho form. The Editor goes on to say that an bis compositors bod fled. The diseoso spread rapidly np to Satarduy evening, and the numbor of cases exceeded 100. Novor have we witnessed scenes of greater distress and abandonment to fear. Parents abandon their off spring, and children forsake tbeir parents, and leave them to tho protection of the benevolent stronger. Tho Minerva contains thirty obltuaiy notices, all of yellow fever*—JV. O. Crescent, 7th. Yellow Fever on the Riykb—The St. Louis Re publican, ot the 29th nlL, says: We leamod on Butarday, that there was thirteen persons sick at tbo Quarantine Station,tbreo of them of yellow fever. Of this disease, there were six deaths during tho weok: and of about twenty cases that have been landed during the season from Now Orleans boats, six toon havo proved fetal. Most of thorn, howevor, wore in the loatstago of tho disease when pnt off at Quarantine. Southern boats bring very few passengers, and the avorago mortality on each, since tho fever has prevailed at New Orleans, has been about five.
