From a circular received from tlie Patent OIHre, signed Charles Mason, Commissioner, we gather, mining oilier mcnts, tlie following: Origin. Tliin new plant seem to be des tined to take an important position among our economical products. It seeds were sent, some, six vests ago, from the north of China, by M. tie Mutitignr, to the tiengm phical Society of Paris.

In numerous instances the results proved highly satisfactory, as it at tained the height ! eight or ten feet, as far north as St. Paul's in Minnesota, and ma tured its seeds at various (minis in Massa chusetts, Kew-York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and other places further South. , The follow ing J ear, while in Prance, on a similar mis sion as above, Mr. Citiwnc obtained several bushels id the Seed of this plant, grown frmn lhat reputed to have been brought from Suuth Africa, by Mr. Leonard Wray, if J.ouilon, and vtliici; hag since proved lobe identical with lhat obtained by tins office in 185-1. .

Since its introduction into this country, the Chinese sugar-rane has pro ved itself wed adapted to our geographical range of India corn.

If it rre important for In in to raise his own seed, he could start the plants under glass, in the spring, and remove, them to the field or gaidcn at about the period uf planting Indian coin, after which thry would fully mature. One iuart of seeds are found to be aullicirtit for an acre. If the toil be iiidifleicol or poor, they niay be town in rows or drills about three feet apart, with the plants from ten to twelve inches asunder; but if the soil be rich, thry may be planted in lulls, five or more seeds to each, lour or five fed apart in one direction, and three or four in the other. The plants may be worked or hoed twice in ihe course of Ihe season, in a similar manner to Indian corn. Any suckers or tupeifluous shoots, which may spring up, may be remov ed. The seed should not be harvested before it acquires a dark of black hue. Should the plants lodge, or fall to the ground, by the excessive weight of the heads, during stunns ol wind or ram, before the teed matures, I thry may remain for weeks without injur. In collecting the seed, a convenient me thod is to cut oif the stalks about .1 foot below the panicles, t ie them up in bunches of twenty five, and suspend them in any secure, airy place, sheltered from rain. If intended solely for fmlder, the first crop should be cut just before the panicles would appear, and the second, as gnon a the seed arrives at the milky stage. It may be tied up in bundles, shocked and cured, like the tops or stalks of Indian corn. If not intended to be employed for any other economical use, after the seed has been removed, anil if the weather be cool, and the amage temperature of the day does nut exceed I5U or 50 F., the stalks may be cut up close to the ground, tied in bundles, collected into shocks, or stowed in a mass in succulent state for Judder, in sheds or barns, jvhere they will keep without injury, if desired, until spring, in this condition, how ever, tlie lower parts of the stalks will be found to be quite hard anil woody, and will require tu be chopped into small pieces for feeding. - PRi;cAimojf. Paittcular care should be observed not to cultivate this plant in the vicinity of Dourah corn, Guinea corn, nor biootn-coru, as it hybridises or mixes freely with those plants, which would render the seeds uf the product unfit for sowing.

It is generally taken lor gtanteil that a i.inn, wiin n has been long tenanted, is exhausted. In mst caes, in our country, it is so. I he larnt "ItiHi has been cultivated by tenant' is pnnr enough. Hut whv r Is it because the tenant has boen moie sclfi-.li tlun other in u ? Is it because he has been regardless of the owner's interest r Not that. It is because he has not comprehended his own interest. If land is in but an ordinary condition, at the beginning nf a tease, we hold that no amount nf selfishness tt'ont will make it worsethough selfishness and insnoiauce may. Perhaps we ought to make a single exception, that ol annual leases. If a farmer is to cul tivate another's land fora sigleyear, hisown intrrrst would n t bu promoted by entering into expensive improvements; but even in that case, we do not believe he cnutd be a g-iner by taking a course that would leave the land in a condition essentially worse limn he lound it. And if lie takes the laud for several years in succcs-ion, it being in but an ordinary st.ite when he commencrs, it is as much for his interest as for that of the owner t raiss it. It is true lhat when the lease expire, ami, her, and not he, will hae the increased value tif the land. But he will have had the increased crops as he went aloti;, and lhat should have been a sufficient inducement to keep the land in good coudition. Tenant fanning, by men fully cognizant of fieir in terest, does not run land down. The id' a of wearitiL' land nut. of exhausting it. spoil ing it, b anvthini like intelligent liusluiiilrv, is absurd. But happily we have but little tenant farm- ing among us. Here tite larmer owns me acres he tills ; he himself has ihe rcmo'e as well as the passing benefit of a soil properly i cared for; and is doubly interested in sus- j . - . -. . .i ! taining and improving it.

" DISCOURSE TO YOUNG MEN." Un Sunday evening the Kcv. 1. V . Mnnre. D . D. of Kichmond, delivered at the Tnblj St reet Presbyterian Church, a discourse to " the Young Men" of our city, which was truly able and impressive. 'I aking for his text the 29th verse of the 22d chapter of Pro verbs j Seest thou a man diligent in busi ness ? He shall stand before Kings ; he shall not sUvid before mean man" he proceeded to discuss the various points which the sub ject presented, in connection with Success in Life. His admonitions were excellent, ami listened to by a crowded Church with the most profound attention. Such a discourse is well worthy of being published, , mil copies of it would be amongst the most valuable pus sessions f fainiles particularly of those in which young children are growing up. We regret our inability tu do more than speak of it in general terms. The hundreds who heard it all admired at, and its good fruits, we hope, will be practicallv shown in the rising gene ration. As n-1 an irrelevant but a suitable appendage to this hurried and imperfect no tice of Mr. Moore's discourse, we insert the following article on the same important and interesting subject from the Baltimore Ame rican : Success tn Business. the knowledge toi plan, enterprise to execute, foresight to de tect the practical and reject thr- visionary, and holiest truthfulness to regulate the whole, are the element that combine to from the success ful man of business. Without the possession of the most or all of these qualities, no man can long conduct any business successfully.

Walters had been much annored Master l"v k""? "tic of Ins scholars whistling in I ochnol. Whenever he calhd a boy to account for such disturbance, he would plead that it was unintentional ' he lorgot all about where ho was.' This became so frequent that the master threatened a severe punish- ment to the next offender. The next day, when the room was unusually quiet, a loud sharp whistle broke th stillness. Every one asserted that it wa a certain boy who had the reputation of a mischief-maker, a liar, lie was called up, and, though with a some what stubborn look he denied it again and again, he was commanded to hold out his hand. At this insUnt, a little, slender fellow, tmt more than seven years old, came out, and i with a very pale, but decided face, held out his hand, saying as he did so, with the clear tone and firm air of a hero : ".Mr. Walters, sir, do not punish him I wh'rtitlrd. I was doing a long, hard sum, and in rubbing out one part, rubbed out another by mistake, anil spoiled it all, an I before I thought I whistled right out, sir. I was very much afraid, but I could not sit there and act a lie, when 1 knew who was to blame. You may ferule me. sir, as you said you should." Anil with ail the firmness he co.uld command, ha again held out the little hand, never for a moment doubting that he was to be punished. Mr. Waiter was much affected. Charles," said he, looking at the erect form of the delicate child, who had made such a conquest over bis natural timidity : "'I would uot stride you a blow for the world. No one here doubts that you spoke the truth; you did not mean to whistle. You have been a hero, sir." The boy went bark lo his seat with Charles grew up, and became a devoted. :. , . I .
