The Custom House in New York, through which pa.sscs a large amount of the champagne imported into this country, reports only one hundred and seventy-five thousand and twenty eight baskets per annum. Seven hundred and eighty thousand baskets, therefore, of the wine drank in this country for imported cham pagne is counterfeit—an amount equal to the whole supply of the champagne district for the world. We may add, that both in New England and New Jersey, there are many very productive so called ‘‘vineyards," though to the common eye the trees look like apple trees, and the “vinej'ards” like orchards.

In an incredibly short space of time it has risen from the rank of a tenth-rate town to bo the third city in the world in population and riches. In the last ten years the larger part has been entire ly rebuilt; marble and free-stone edifices of ^reat size, beauty and costliness have been substituted for the old brick-hoases; Uroadway has been extend ed for miles; a vast park of nearly 800 acres is being laid out in what will be before long the centre of the city; dwelling houses have been built by thousands, far exceeding in elegance and comfort the average dwellings of Londoners; and New York, with its suburbs now reckoning more than a million of inhabitants, may look for ward t> being in the next generation not only the largest, but perhaps the most beautiful city in the world. All this has been done by private enter prise. and if the administration of the city had been in able and honest hands, the results would have been far more extraordinary. Siyuuturf: of the L'russ.—The mark .which per sons who are unable to write are required to make in.stead ol their signature, is in tlie form of a cross, and this practice, having formerly been followed by kings and nobles, is constantly referred to a.s ‘ an instance ol the deplorable ignorance of ancient times. This signature is not, however, invariably proof of such ignorance: anciently, the use of this mark was not confined to illiterate persons; for amongst the Saxons the mark of the cross, as an attestation of the good faith of the person signing, wa.s required to be attached to the signature of those who could write, as well as to stand in the place of signature of those who could not write. Ill those times, il a man could write, or even read, his knowledge was considered proof presumptive that he was in holy orders. The word dvricm or clerk was synon^'mous with penman; aud the laity or people who were not clerks, did not leel any urgent necessity for the use of letters. The an cient use of the cross was therefne universal, alike by those who could and those who could not write; it was indeed, the symbol of an oath, from its holy associations, and generallythe mark. On this account Mr. Charles Knight, in his notes to the Pictorial Shakespeare, explains the expres sion uf “(jod save the mark,” as a form of ejacula tion tipproaching to the character of an oath. This phrase occurs three or more times in the i plays ot Shakespeare; but hitherto it has been left by the commentators in its original obscurity. Lfiiqi Year.—On the evening of the 3d instant the youtig ladies of Forsyth, (la., gave a leap year party to the young gentlemen. The ladies en gaged the company of the gentlemen, went after them, and gallanted them to the chapel, took care of their hats, overcoats, and walking canes, gave them seats, and entertained them with sweet chat. When a lady wished to promenade she sought her own partner, engaged the company, gave him her arm, and paced the floor by his side as nimbly as a dancing nymph. After promenading with one awhile, tiiey would seat him, and take anoth er. The young ladies administt red a very sharp rebuke to the gentlemen, in showing them that all ought to be noticed without distinction. Quan'hiry.—We mean by it a dilemma, an agi tation or disturbance of mind. The old Saxon phrase was '■‘■(ihp wacnt/rre,” viz: distress iu fancy, imaginar}' mischief. (!h‘ icaeno is the past prm- ciple of xca> ntii, to fancy. Johnson derives this val Stores, (’otton or other Country Produce, for sale or shipment. Jan'y 19, 1859. 81- Raisins!
