A According to Kemfer, it will grow any soil and climate ; others say prefers a pliable soil, and an as ifX -rcct partly shaded. -w- v i n a o rr n n t n i vra l i rums to be fit fot use 5 and every s;x or eign? vears, the ground is replanted witb new trees. We shall now give all that we have been wble to learn respecting the ; jratheiin4 and the preparation of the leaves, which is the only part of the -, tree of which any usels made. ' In February and Marcji, tbe cul ' V tivntor j2fnthers the young and tender f? Jeaves when they are only of a few days growtfi ; ana in consequence their comparative scarcity, and their high price, these are generally consumed only by the rich. This is. called the imperial tea. The second gathering is made in jVIay, when some of the leaves have attained their usual growth, but o thtrsarenot so far advanced. Both of these are plucked indiscriminately, a they occur, and this mixture of the young and mature leal' is the llohea. The third aud Inst gathering is made about theniddle of summer, when all the leaves are at their full growth. This kind of tea is the coarsest,' and is usually consumed by the poor. Although each leaf is carefully plucked one .y one, not to injure the phint, a labourer will gather from six to twelve pounds per day. The leaves are dried upon heated. iron plates. They are continually turn ed with great quickness, till they are so hot that they can scarcely be any Jonger touched N:th the hand. They are then thrown rpon mats, i'n m which the workman afterwajds takes liem, one by one, and rolls them iri-' his hands, while others fan them continually, to o l them rapidly, in ordei that they may preserve their rollcd-up form. This process is repeated several times, until all the humidity of the Jeaves is extracted : but the iron plates are heated less and less, and the rolling is made more slowly auo wnh greater care. When the leaves are thus made perfectly dry, they are packed in hoxes, that they may preserve tneir perfume until they go into the mur- fcet. FOREIGN NK WS. Eight duys laitr Jrnm Europe. The packet ship Canada, ( -apt Ala ( V, has arrived at New York from Liverpool, bringing London papers ro the evenintr of ;he l6th uh. The 9 y ISew York papers furnish the fol-1 lowing articles of intelligence receiv ed by this vessel. "' Although the news from the French 'armies, as given fiicial' v in the Paris papers, is ten days later, we do not find that they had made any greater progress in the invasion of Spain than was known by the last arrival. The occupation of Burgos was then announced ; and we are now told that 'the head quarters VJitfve heen at Burgos since the 9th." -and 'that " the first corps has made .&&ffccf movement upon Valladolid." wiCh order of day appears, lor the " Arm'., of the Pyrenees JO. march on the 5th of May, ' to advance upon Madrid"; and it is stated in the Morning Chronicle of the 13th, that letters had beeu received in London from Madrid, dated the 25th April, from which it appeared, that the French were expected there, as all obstacles to their advance had been removed, and as it was the intention of the Spanish government, ai d the commander of the province, not u impede tlietn.

' Courier. There is one- circumstance which occurs to us at this moment, and which may not be undeserving of attention, viewed in connexion with what may be the probable designs of Mina. We allude to the corps of French and Italian refugees, of which we heard so much before the war commenced, but not one syllable since. What has become of them ? Where are they ? We were told that s'ime half dozen were killed by a French cannon ball when the army first moved across Bidassoa, and we have been told nothing more.

Ib. :f French diplomatic Arrangements Tht French government, already calculating on the success oi its arms in Spain, has appointed a t ew Ambassador at Madrid. The fol lowing diplomatic .arrangements, may bp regatded as correct : The Maiqutsde Talaru, Peer of France, is appointed ambassadof of Fiance at JNJadrid. He will commence his iournev at the same time with the Ainbassadors of the Allied Powers. jvi. nyoe de ieuvuie, wno was long ago appointed Ambassador to Constantinople, will not set off for a year or more. From the London Sun of May 1 6. Jt is now certain that Russia has assembled an army on the Vistula, and the rumours oi the intended journey of the Emperor Alexander to Bad-Ems, seem to indicate the manner in which this force is meant to be employed. Projects have been attributed- to his imperial majesty, which, if true, would be rather in consistent with , the character of a faithful Ally of the French goveru men t, and would give the Spaniards no reason to apprehend any thing lrom Kussiaii hostdity ! We shallnbt otherwise allude to the alleged pro jects at present. All thai we have tp say is this that aflairs are ob viously approaching to a crisis which must involve Lurop in another gener al trar. We have always, as our readers know, anticipated that the trantic attack upon bpain. would bring matters to this pass at last. We, therefore, shall not be surprised bv the tremendous events which are at hand. Unless the war between France and Spain be brought to a speedy close, indeed, either by tbe 1- . f .i "I-. i i uiuu'pn oi me rieucn, or oy. a peace founded, on mutual conces sions, England will be forced into the conflict sooner than the public generally apprehend. We make this assertion on no slight gropjjs ; ai u irom no omer motive tnan a desire to put those on their guard, ho might be injured by a sudden t hane of the policy of the country Ir. will be seen that we do not tride with a suhjret so serious. the highest political quarters it is now ' be much longer maintained -JL-Si .' iwmhnffnn From . j.

Whether hi$$f- gress (wind and 'veather pe muting; Will be as t xact as seems to be ex pected, will be known in due season. The Spanish fortified towns which the French troops have -Torse long a time besieged, do not appear to have 'surrendered ; on the contrary, it is stated. that at St. Sebastian's a sortie bad been made, by which the French suffered a grt at loss. The Spanish and Portuguese unit ed forces, to the number of 13.000, ate said to have reached Vtdladolid, in consequence of which, the French, who had advanced to that place, have found it convenient to fall back. By an ar icle from St. Petersburgh, dated April 26th, it would seem that the Russian army was about to be reduced, instead off enlarged, and that an Imperial ukase to. that effect would shortly be published. The health of the King of Great Britain was so much improved, that the daily bulletins had ceased being published. What effects tne incursion of Mina ino the territory of France would produce, can oniy be conjectured. One thing would seem necessarily to follow all supplies frpm home for Moncey'sarmy would necessarily be intercepted. Besides, if suff red to go unmolested into t ranee, whilst the French army was marching further into Spain the. mischief he misrhtdo would be incalculable. And if'Moncev should follow, as would seem to be almost absolutely neces- sary, Mina's manoeuvre would be not onlv reputable to him as a skilful officer, but highly beneficial to his country -We -shall look with. much solicitude for .intelligence fiom time to time from Europe. The contest between France and Spain is assuming a very interesting aspect. . i" The Spanish garrison at St Se-, bastian, had make a sortie, by which the French had suffered considera bie loss. It it said in the South of France many malcontents were anxiously waiting the arrival of the Spanish force, to hoist the tri-colored flag. The French frigate Juno had captured a Spanish armed brig of 14 guns, on the coast ot Catalonia, and sent her to Marseilles. ys LONDON," MAY 17.

One of the sons of Count Lspelette ex Viceroy of Navarre, is also in that province at the head of a guerilla party. The advanced guard of the French army, which was at Valldolid. re ceived orders to retrace its steps, and has returned in four days to Burgos. It is thought that this retrograde movement has for its ol ject, to avoid an action with the Portuguese, France being at peace with ; that country.

LATEST FROM FRANCE. NEW-YORK, JUNE 24. The packet ih'P Montano, Capt. Smith, from Havre, arrived last eve ning having brought Paris papers and private intelligence to tfc 19th pf May being thr edays later than was! received yesterday via London. For the following translations we aire indebted to the editors of the Amer ican. ' Among the passengers who came in the Montano, was the honorable Albert Gallatin, American Minister at the Cquit of St. Cloud. pabis, may 18.

'According to the sanie story several battalions had been detached from the:F.rench arr my in the vicinity ; in order "to keep up the blockade of Santona. It is said that the Marshal Duke of Albu ieip, (Suchet) s about to take his departure for the army.
