THE BEST FIELD PEAS.
The best pens for field culture are the dwarf or “held” varieties, such us grow fi-oin a foot to eighteen itiches in height, and will not fall down readily to the ground.
3A good crop is about twenty bushels per
ncre, and a bushel of peas is reckoned equal to or better than ll bushel of corn. This crop is much cultivated as n field crop in England and in Canada, and to some ex- tent in the northern States of America. It
To that fierce howl which rolls_from land to land is the custom to sow them broadcast and in

Son oftiic morning?’ Or condemning: ‘ 'l‘hu.~i Perish the wicked. ’ Or hlaspheming; ‘ Here Lies our Belshazzar, our Senuacherib,
Our l’haraoli——he whose heart God hardened. So that he would not let the people go. ’

This Czar-—this Emperor——this distliroried corpse, Lying so straightly in an icy calm

No better, and no worse—Hcaven mend us all;

THE CANTON RIVER.
Nothing can be more surprising or as- tounding to the European than the appear- ance ofthe Canton River; for let him have travelled far and wide; naught can give him an idea of the scene but ocular demonstra- tion. Myriads of boats float on the waters; some devoted to handicraftmen of all des- criptions; others to retailers of edibles, cooked and uncooked; boats laden wit chests of tea, one piled upon the other, tier above tier; until the side of the bout is level with the water’: edge; mandarin boats forcing their way authoritatively through the crowd; war juuks at anchor; while here and there a European boat, manned by sailors, who give vent to their excited feel- ings by uttering sundry and divers ejacu- lations not particularly complimentary to the good seamanship of the natives, nor ex- pressive of kindly feelings towards them. Flower-boats, and others belonging to arti- sans, vendors of food, pedlars, merchants, poultry and sand-pans, are wedged together in one solid mass, apparently impenetra- ble; while the air is filled and the ear is stunned with the deafening sounds of gongs and wind instruments, discoursing most_un- earthly music, accompanied by the yelling, screaming, gabbling, and clamour of hun- dreds of thousands of human tongues, pro- ducing a hodge-podge of sounds. unrivalled and unequalled since the building of the Tower of Babel. As there is no part 0 the world so densely populated as China. 90
drills, sometimes alone, and sometimes with cats, which serve to hold them up. VVe saw considerable fields of them put in this way, in Canada, last season.
Peas having a large seed require to be covered; and perhaps drilling is the very best way of putting them in. They may be ploughed in or covered with a. cultivator; but the seed should be covered to the depth of an inch or so.
The land needs to be ploughed as for any other crop, and that should be chosen which is free from weeds, and is esteemed good for wheat. Let it be ploughed, harrowed, and if rolled alter the crop is put in all the better.
From two to three bushels of seed are sown per acre; but when mixed with oats, they are used in the ratio of one-third pens to two-thirds oats. As many as forty bushels per acre of this mixture have been rown in N ew England.
When used in Summer for fattening hogs, the plan would be to carry the porkors along with them about one month or perhaps six weeks, and finish out on Indian corn; for we take it for granted that no crop we can sow can complete with corn in fattening animals when that crop comes forward.
The best way of “stocking the crop” would be to feed it out as fast as it ripens and is wanted. If “ kept over,” it ought to be ut under cover.
he pea crop is reconed in England an uncertain one; though Arthur Young tells us, that it is because it is worse cultivated than others. It is certainly an uncertain one in New England, but whether from the same cause we cannot tell, with our pre- sent views about it; though we should be lad to hear from corresdondsnts, if any liave the neodful experience. We should much prefer to trust to clover, to rye and to corn.
Act: or OYSTERS.-A London oyster-man can tell the age of his flock to u nicet . The a of an oyster is not to be found by ookin into his mouth. It been its years upon its ck. Every-body who has handled an oyster shall must have observed that it seemed as if corn- posod of successive layers or plates overlsppigg each other. These are technically term “ shoots,” and each of them makes a year’! growth ; so that by counting them, we can de- termine at a glance the year when the creature came into the world. Up to the time of its maturity, the shoots are regular and Buoceblivei but after that time they become irregular, are piled one over the other, so that the shell becomes more and more thickened and bulky. Judging from the great thickness to which some oyster shells have attained, this mollusc is capable. it‘ left to its natural changes unmolost-
ed, of attaining a patriarchal longevity.
