Court, Novembf.h Term, 18-58. The Grand Jury for the second week, empaneled anil sworn, beg leave to re port, that by reason of the diligence and industry of the Jury of the lirsl week, there remains few subjects for our consideration. We have, however, to report upon the condition of a portion of tlie County Roads. The Washington Road is reported as in bad order, and especially the hill be-1 yond Rae’s creek. The Jliiledgeville Road is also report- j ed in very bad condition generally.— The bridge at Wyld’s Mill needs repairs to render it a safe crossing; also, the. bridge at the old Boring Mill. The' water spreads on the Road opposite Kib lingßivorth Farm—a ditch from the Road, cut through this farm, would i drain it off. Repairs are also needed on | the Waynesboro’ Road, at and near Green’s Mills. It has been reported to the Jury that the Ford on Spirit Creek, below Moses V. Green's Mill, is at times in such con dition, by reason of the discharge of water from the Mill, as to render the passing almost impossible, certainly attended with great trouble and incon venience. The Jury, from the evidence before them, deem the erection of a Bridge at this point, as a great public convenience, for a very large amount of travel, and respectfully Ueg to call the attention of the proper authorities to the subject. The lury arc informed that tbis subject has been referred to before, but no action having been bad, j they trust it may now receive such at- j tention as its merits demand. The Road, bridge and Causeway, ! leading from Little Spirit Creek to He mared Ferry and Shell bluff, is reported by one of our body as in very bad con-! diton for nearly the whole distance, j and we recommend its early repair. The Jury cannot allow the occasion to I pass without referring particularly to ' the fact, that a very large proportion of i the business before Grand Juries grows put of the retailing of spirituous li-i ' tjuors. Nearly a!! the cases against parties, charged with crime arc tracea ble to tills cause ; and, while it has be come almost a hackneyed theme, yet it cannot, perhaps, be too often presented ; —hoping it may stimulate all whose; duty it is to look after and see that I laws are executed, to very diligent and persevering efforts to airest this fruit-; ful source of crime. In conclusion, the Grand Jury beg . leave to return their thanks to bis Hon- , or, the presiding Judge, and to the At torney General, for their courtesy to this body during their term of service.

North Carolina Tea. —The Youpon tea, which is about to be introduced in to Paraguay by some one in the United States Expedition, is plentiful in North Carolina, and grows also in Eastern Virginia. An exchange says : The Yottponis a shrub not unlike the common “box” bush—its leaves and twigs are cut up quite fine and then cured by parching it after the fashion of coffee. The shrub makes a handsome hedge and our birth place abounds with it in its wild state. The tea sells in maiket at from 25 to 75 ets. per bushel. A Gouibllng Countess. A visitor at Hamburg writes : “At the lapis vert we see, among others more or less distinguished, Madatne KisseletT, the lady of the Russian Ambassador at Paris. In early life she was acknowl edged to be so remarkably beautiful, as to have been called ‘The Rose of Rus sia.’ She is very rich, and still very gay, though well advanced in years, and so noted a stickler for woman’s rights, that, at her grand entertainments in Paris, gossip says that her husband must wait for a special written invitation, the same as an ordinary guest, and not unfrequently waits in vain. She has still the remains of great attractions— full and piercing black eyes, equiline dosc and handsome mouth, chin and neck. She is richly dressed in black, with a profusion of bright rings and other ornaments. How very expert she is in tossing her moneys to the distant colors on the table ! She has several feet to toss them, and yet notone rolls or lights on the wrong division. The wheel is in motion—she throws three thalers on one color, two Napoleons on another, five Napoleons on a third, and ten Napoleons oti a fourth. Yellow wins ; not a shadow of satisfaction or gloom on her countenance as she piles her winning, or gives out new coin. - She is so constant an attendant at the table that the public, of Hamburg, thankful for her patronage, have call ed a new street by her name. When we taw her, she had nine rows of Napo leons, about three inches high, at her elbow, hut whether winnings or her stock in trade, we had no means of as certaining." ,, ■»■».. A fellow was arrested for stealing ducks and after a description of them the counsel for the prisoner said — “Why, they can’t be such a rare breed for I’ve some like them in my I <»wn yard. “Very likely’ said the complainant; I’ve lost » good many ducks lately. 1 [From Hunt's Merchants' Mnjasme.] Statistic? of Population. The population of several of the lead ing countries and their colonies have, 1 according to recent censuses, been as i follows: j Colonies. Countries. Brit.

According to the best native authority ' the population should now Vie nearly' 400,000,000, hut the population is given , by Gutzlaff at 367,000,000, and confirm-. ed at about that by other late writers.; Comparatively with England and Wales, the proportion of numbers to territory would he as follows : Area. Bop. Acres square utiles. per head. Rutland and Wales, 37,S1‘J 1G,055,G34 J China, 1,2'J5.000 3C7.030.000 2}J Thus, even at the figures given, the j population is less dense than in Eng land. The census returns give, in some ) provinces of the empire, the population j at an average of more titan 700 persons | to the square mile. But by the last cen- j I sus county of Lancaster. England, had about 800 per square mile, not to speak Inf Middlesex, which has an average of 500, or of Surrey, which lias about 700 1 per square mile. It is also to be observed that these densely peopled parts of China ion the sea caast which have been pene ! trated by Europeans, are well known to 1 jbe very fertile, and in every way well i I fitted to afford a large amount of subsis-' fence to their inhabitants. These facts j go to confirm, to some extent, the large j population of China; the more so that, the people of that country subsist on a much smaller allowance of food. The density of the population of Holland and Belgium is far greater than that of China. In London, there lias recently died a woman ninety two years of age, who was born in the room in which she died a.id never slept out of it for a night in j her long life time. | Boswell observing to Johnson, that I ' there was no instance of a beggar dying : for want in the streets of Scotland, “I believe, sir, you are very right,” says' Johnson ; “but this does not arise from j I the want of beggars, but the impossi-' jbilityof starving a Scotchman."
