Eruption op a Volcano — The steam er lalca, from Ecuadur, South America, mnrived at Panama on tho 20ih ult., bringing the following news from the State of Columbia. A gentleman in Buenaventure, in that State, thus writes to the Panama Star : ♦ I have received, by a private letter, news of a distressing character from the interior On the morning of the 4th about half past two oYlock, a violent eruption of the Volcano Purace, eitua ted some fifteen or twenty miles from Popayan, occurred, and immense quan tities of brimstone and ashes were eject •ad. Two or three villages in the neigh 'borhood are supposed to have been completely destioyed, together with all of their inhabitants. Soon after the time at which the eruption took place, the water in the river I'attea, at Popa yon, rose a foot higher limn usual, and* the rapid current caused thereby carried down a quantity of the offensive lava thickly strewn with the bodies of those who had lost their lives by the eruption, and also the carcasses of many animals killed in the same way. At 11 o'clock -dn'ttfr-mwnmg of tho 4th, the river Cauca was quite dry. The Governor of the Depart ment, fearing that another and more serious rj«“* to t.Kss. vlvee wight occur at other ordered the hatmmtts -4 ‘Air- M ferent callages along the river banks to move with their cattle to the higher lands, where they would be safe. The mews by the next mail is looked forward to with much anxiety. Electric Speed. —According to ob servations made by G. Davidson, As tronomer United States Coast Survey, on the night of the 28th .of February, 1869, at San Francisco, California, on a loop of telegraphic wire extending thence to Cambridge, Massachusetts, and returning.to San Francisco, the re turn signal being received on a chrono graph near that receiving the out go ng signal, it was found that the total inter val of time between the two signals amounted to eight tenths of one second. The entire wire war divided into eleven portions, of about 650 miles each, and connected by repeater, which sent from one portion to the next anew electric current, having a greater speed than the original one would have had if continu ed beyond the first reach of 650 miles. It will be seen that the actual rate of transmission of each current over 650 miles cannot be deduced from these da ta by dividing the whole time by 11, but we are assured that the practical speed of a secies of currents combined by relays is at the rate of 7,200 miles in 0.8 of a second. Corn and Hogs.— From carefully conducted expet intents by different per sons, it has been ascertained that one bushel of corn will make a little over 10* pounds" of pork —gross. Taking the results as a basis, the following de •Ructions are made, whiph nil our farm * ers would do well to lay up fur a con 'venient reference ; that : When corn costs 12|c. per bushel, pork costs l|c. per pound When corn costs 17c. per bushel, pork costa-2n. per pound. When corn costs 25c. per bushel, pork coats 3c. per pound. When corn costs 33c. per bushel, pork costs 4c. per pound. When corn costs 500. per bushel, pork costs fte per pound. The following statements show what tfbe farmer realizes on his corn when in the form of pork : When pork sells for 3c. per pound, it brings 25c. per bushel in corn. When pork sells for 4c per pound, it brings 33c. per bushel in corn. When pork sells for sc. per pound, it brings 45c, per bui-hel in corn. - Ex tkanpe.

Jb— _JB_ b ijß Farming in China- Small cultivators in China oftei employ spade husbandry, and it iy im possible not to admire the neat condi tion of fields, from which they rcnitm every weed with the most invincible pa tie we. The ground must be bad anc sterile indeed, if they cannot succeed ir making it produce something. In phi ces too dry for tho culture of rice, the) sow the sweet potato, hemp, and cot ton ; and if there is a corner quite nn productive, they plant in it some ode ful trees, the mulberry, the tallow tree, or at least some pines for turpentine The Chinese farmer is incrediblv anxious about bis harvest; if lie dread that a violent wind may shake out th< grains of rice by lashing the ears on* against another, he binds several sta'k together into a kind of sheaf, so as t< make them affix'd each other mntna rapport, and check the ravages of th 1 >*iad. In irrigation also they dis|&t'- great industry, often carrying tfSe waV through bamboo tubes up the side* »f mountains, which are cut into terrac*s - cultivated to the very top. Iby have a thousand contrivances iu tifC« of drought, to spread the waters of »v --ulets and ponds over their fields, aid enable them to flow off again whin he inundation is too great. They pika use chiefly of chain pumps, which tey put in motion with these feet, and wlich sends the water from one reservoir to another with great rapidity. S<ne times they fix at the edges of strains large wheels of extreme lightr-ws, which a very slight current is sutSceot to turn. These wheels are miwt itge niously constructed, and BurniuiJ«d with vessels that take up the witer from the rivulets, and pour it into, luge wooden tanks, whence it aftolvard runs through little rills over the Many provinces are so fertile, urtdcul tivoted w ith so much care and skill,that three harvests a year are regularly!pith ered. When the first is pretty Weil ad vanced, they sow tig) second in tie in tervals between the ridges so tli u 'f there are two different cri ps in the sautefn -'t* 1 at the same time'. All the cereals known in Europe are found iu Chin*, and even exhibit Vatieties not found elsewhee.— In the noith, barh-y uqd wheat are more especially cultivated; and in theaiuth, i ice, which is the principal io<sl|ff the tower cthi-ses «nd the basis of almt-nt for all. It is, however a inidflo to suppose that throughout the Empire the Chinese live chii-tlv on rice j in the north and west it is not more used than in France. It is only seen ott th* tables of the rich, and then mostly ms grand no asioos. Wheat, liUck wheat, iiarley, Indian corn, millet, form the daily food ot the people, except in tho province of Kan sou, where bread is made precisely as in Europe; every where else they spoil the whe rten flour, eating it in the state of unferuiexiled half done paste, sometimes in the shape of m bun, some times pulled out in ribbons like macaro ni. Little Jouv.-s about the hb<.< <>f s' | tnau/A n- a . v.v c occnsmnaVly mat* -, merely boiled to steam. Besides possessing the cereals, fruits, and vegetables of Europe, China ha* ala-', in her vegetable kingdom, a rich variety of other Reductions. Among the most celebrated we must mention the bamboo, the numerous uses of which have hud great.influence on the habits iff the Chinese. It is no exaggeration i" iTay that the mines of China are loss val untile tuher than her bamboos; and after th<- rice and silk, there is notfrijig that yields so great a revenue. Tht I uses to which the bamboo is appliei are so many and so important, that out can hardly conceive the existence b! China without it. It issues from fcbt ground like the asparagus, of the diigH eter that it afterward remains wliei grown. The dictionary of Khang hi dc fines it as "a production that is mithe tree nor grass’’ (fei two fei-mou,) that s an amphibious vegetable, aoineumespf quiring the proportions of a tree. Tie bamboo has been known from the rc mutest tiuv sin China, of which it is a native:; but the cultivation of the lar-v kind dates only from the end of tie third century before the Christian fri. Sixty-three principal varieties of tie bamlmo are counted in the Etnpit-; they differ from une another in height, the distance of the knots,; tie color, and the thickness of the wool,in their branches, leaves, and mots, is well as in peculiar and whimsical in formations which are perpetuated in certain species. A forest of barnferos "ill yield a considerable revenue to ts proprietor, if he knows how to regijjUte the oiittintr. ‘‘The grande hibirel of the'bamboo,” says the Chinese pmytrb, ‘ never see their grandmother ; but the mother is never separated from ber children. 1 ’ Among the useful and curious vege table productions of China, exclusive of the object of the most active commerce —ten—may lx- conn ed the wax tee, the tallow tree, the paper mnlbe ry, the litchi, or varnish tree; the kftnur-.wi,, or dragonV eyi ; the jujube, the'snr anise, the cinnamon tree of w.iich; the hark is very thick; the orange, of which there are many speoies, the mod nr, and a nuin'ier of other fruit trees, p,,- u . liar to the si-u hern provinces; thence pse >ny, the camellia,* the hoitensia,. brought fi'iffi China by Lord Mai-art nev ; the snviii timgg'Ma. many of roses, the odoriferous Queen Margin rite. the day lilv, the rhubarb, thi| jin then, of gillsing; and a prodigioiii t ii ver.-ity of ligneous herbaceous p|i,(s, cultivated for the beaiiiy of their fi-iw ers, as well ns the cotton tri e, ajut a great, nunibi-r of textile, econoißienl, or cereal proibictions, which wonliji de serve to tie natumlizeii in Europe. The i* it It i vat ion of us.-ful veg'-tjudes is a bnuu-li of industry to which the Chinese 1 1 ave alvvays especially devoted theiuselves ; and from the remotest ep ochs it has attracted the attention ot the Government and received mucli en couragement. In the most populous provinces, even the rivulets and Bunds, have been turned to productive ajmatit. and nutritive aquatic plants, such its the tubum <>l the Sagittarius and w'attr lily, of which the Chinese make such won derful use, sown in them. The nymphasa, or water-lily, has al ways been a favorite in China. The po ets huve celebrated it in their verses, on awcount of tho beauty of its flowers • the Doctors of Reason have placed it among the ingredii Dts for the elixir of immor tality; and the economists have ex-, tolled |t for its utility. At the piewmt day, it has also, become the J the secret societies. / lien boa, has broad rounded leaves, scolloped at the edges, fleshy, full of veins, and sloping to the middle ; some swirn on the surface of the water,* ot h ers rise above it to different heights.— They are of a tender green on the up per surface, rather darker underneath, and supported by long stalks spotted with black. The root of the water-If ly is longlived ; it is as thick as your arm, and sometimes as much as twelve or fifteen feet long. The ciilor is pale yel low outside and milk-white within; and it lies along the bottom of the water, or attaches itself to the-clay by bunches of fibres, which spring oat at various dis tanees along it. From the midst of these fibres it sometimes sends out shoots which increase its growth, but it commonly grows at the two ends. The stalks of both leaves and flowers are pierced quite to the extremity by hides rounded like ihose of the root, and sym metrically arranged along them. ThS flowers of the water-lily have numerous petals, disposed in sack a manner that when they are not com pletely open you might take them for large tulips; afterward they expand into a rose like form. In the middle of the flower is a large conical pistil, which becomes a rounded,-spungy fruit, divided throughout its length into cells full of oblong seeds, enveloped in a kind of shell like the acorn, and com posed like it of two white lobes, be tween which is the genn. The stam ens are very delicate filaments, termina ting in violent-colored anthers. The Chinese distinguish four kinds of water lily, the yellow, the white, the red, and the pink, the three latter sometimes with double. This plant may tie propa gated !>y seeds, but more easily and rapidly by roots ; it does not require any kind of culture, and there is nothing comparable to the effect produced by this splendid fl wer on the ponds and. basins i( f China. It does not bud till toward tho end of May, but its germi nation is very rapid, and its great leaves lying on the surface of the water or raised majestically to various heights, form a covering of most exquisite ver dure, .trie beauty of which is of course enhanced, when it is enoneled by flow ers,nf vaiims dyes. They aie larger than poppies and tints are beautfuliy relieved by the green leaves. The young Chinese poets arc particular ly fond of celebrating the beauty of the wati-r lily gleaming in the moonlight as the boats row about the basins illumined by swarms of glow-worms and fire-flies. The water-lily is very remarkable, ton, in a utilitarian point of view. Its s--eds ere eaten as nuts are in Europe and boiled in sugar and water they are considered delicious by epicures. The gigantic root is a great resource for culinary preparations, and in whatever way it is dressed, it is always excellent and wholesome. The Chinese pickle great quantities of il with salt and vine gtir, to eat with rice ; reduced to a oxirwnelv agreeable when boil ed with milky*? water, one! in tho sum- TTW*ilj*trtMtrsn raw like fruit, and is very refreshing. Finally the leaves are constantly made use of instead of pa per for wrapping up all kinds of things, and when dried are often mixed with touacco, to render it a little, milder. A Wonderful Story. It is said that in the tombs of the Necro polis of ancient Egypt two*-kinds of mummies have been found. One is in •complete —that is to say, organs nee es;taiy to life have been.separated from them; the oiher, on the contrary, is quite complete. Having observed this, a Swedish chemist, Dr. Grueselbach, who has the repu atioti of being both great and learned, Professor at the Uni versity of Upsal, has come to the con elusion that the Egyptian mummies are not all, as has been said and believed for some thousand of years, bodies em balmed by any process of preservation whatever; but they are really the bod ies of individuals whose life has been momentiirially suspended, with the in tention of restoring them at some future time, only the secret of preservation has been lost. Professor Grusselbach ad duces many proofs in support of his idea; among others, his experiments du ring the last ten year’s, whieh be says, have always proved successful He took a snake and treated it so as to be numb it as though it had been oarved in marble, and it was so brittle that had be allowed it to fall, it would have bro ken into fragments. In this state he kept it for several years, and tiren res or ed it to life by sprinkling it with a stim ulating fluid, the Composition of which is his secret. For fifteen years the snake has been undergoing an existence composed of successive deaths and res urrect! -ns, apparently without sustain ing any harm. The Professor is repor ted to have sent a petition to the Gov ernment, requesting that a criminal who has been condemned to death may be given to him to treat in the same man ner as the snako, promising to restore fiitu to tile in two years. It is under-- stood that the rruu who undergoes this experiment is to be pardoned. VVheth er the Swedish Government has accept ed or rejected the learned chemist’s proposal is n->t known. A Umvkhsaijst Silks dsn. A Univer salist, who did not pretend to be a rnor id man, f>nee met a minister of the gns pel and commenced preaching to him, hi the presence of a large number of people his f.v-irite doctrine, and say ing it great deal about what Christ had done for all mankind The minister heard him through, and then said : ‘Now, sir, it you are a reasonable man, I will convince you fnim your own words that Jesus Christ never did any thing for you. Now, what did you say Christ came into the world for V ‘To save us from our sins.’ ‘Well, he certainly has not done that for y-'U, since you are committing sia every day.’ ‘He saves us from the punishment of sin.’’ ‘How is that ? You told us a little while ago, that you receive the punish ment of your sins every day, as you go along. And lie certainly has not saved you from future punishment iu hell, for you say there is no such thing as belli. How, then, has Christ saved you from your sins, or done anything for you ?’ 4There was no answer to this, and the Universaiist retreated in silence amid the laughter of the bystanders. It is suggested that it would be a good idea to have-eclipses more frequently—-it causes so many eyes to CUTHBERT, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1869, SAVAWNAE CARDS. P.
