J. LILLY. March 30 9-4w Progrets in China.—The minds of all are so much preoccupied and absorbed by the state of aflFairs in our own country, that we have little dis position to notice events in other parts of the world. While we on this continent are suffering fear and change, and Eurdpe has but recently been the scene of a wonderful revolution, there are remarkable movements in Asia affecting the interests of the four hundred millions of China. The relations of the Celestial Empire to the Western World have been very favorably modi fied by the late treaty of Pekin. Several new ports are opened, and larger facilities for trade and intercourse have been secured. By the trea ty of 1842 five ports were opened to foreign com merce. The American treaty of 1858 added two more; and by the new British treaty now ratified seven additional cities on the coast are made ac cessible to the residence and trade of W estern nations. Among these the principal and most important is Hankau, situated at the junction of the Yangst and the Han rivers. Thie city, which is in reality three cities in one, has a larger popu lation than any city in the world, the estimates varying from four to eight millions. Located not far from the mouth of the great central river of China, the Yangst, which is to that country what the Mississippi is to ours—it is the seat of a vast internal commerce. The business of eighteen populous provinces, with a population of eighty millions, tends to this point as its centre. By the terms of this treaty, British subjects, and the people of all nations that have treaties with Chi- in Store, to which they invite the attention of Mer chants generally. All those having notes and accounts past due are earnestly requested to make payment with out further notice. J. B. STARR. J. M. WILLIAMS. March 27, 1861. 8tf FALL, 1860.

The eflect of this new opening to a more extensive trade and more liberal intercourse cannot but be favorable, and help to break down the barriers that have sepa rated this great nation from the rest of the world. While Russia on the north is bringing the rail road and telegraph to the borders of China, Great Britain is Peking to connect Calcutta with one of the western cities ot the Empire by a railroad. At the same time that this old nation is re- ; ceiving new impressions and ideas from without, she is undergoing a radical revolution from with- i in. Since the death of the late Emperor, in 1851, i a powerful party (it might be called the native { Chinese party) has rebelled against the Govern- j ment, with a view of overthrowing the Tartar dy- I nasty, and of establishing in its place a new and i more liberal dominion. The insurgents have ' been very successful in the region of the Great I Canal, and are now in possession of Nankin. I They attempted a few months ago to attack : Shanghai, but were resisted and obliged to re- ; treat by the Allied forces at that port. There is much diversity of opinion concerning these rebels, ; but all agree that they are exerting an immense ' influence. They are disposed to treat foreigners with more kindness and liberality than the Im- I perialists have ever manifested. If foreign na tions should adopt the doctrine of non-interven tion in this case, and allow the Chinese rebellion to go on, it is very probable either that the pre- j sent dynasty would-come to an end or the empire be divided. Whatever may be the result, a new era seems to be dawning on the Land of the Sun, and its exclusiveness yielding to the spirit of modern civilization. Buffalo Commercial Advertiser. HACKEREf..

Poison in Spiritous Liqours.—In a communi cation to the Boston Medical and Surgical Jour nal, Dr. Hayes, State Assajer of Mas.sachusetts, states that he has made a somewhat extended series of analytical experiments on spirits, and ia no case had he found that any deleterious body had been added by manufacturers to distilled liquors. Cases of sudden poisoning by low-priced common spirits frequently occur, but these are caused by the fusel oil which is produced by the fermentation of mixed grains. American distil led spirits, when allowed to become old, are less deleterious tban most of the foreign brandies. In newly distilled spirits, however, there is a source of great danger which should be generally known, as it is of special interest to the medical profession. , Of these Dr. Hayes says that the newly distilled spirits of the most common kind often contain salts of copper, of lead or tin, derived from the condensers iu which the vapors are reduced to a fluid form. The quantity ot copper salt contain ed in the bulk usually taken at a draught is suf ficient to produce the minor effects of metallic poisoning, and the cumulative character of these poisons may even lead to fatal consequences. In the “old spirits,” examined by Dr. Hayes, he found that those metallic salts had all deposited to the bottom of the cask. New spiritous liquors and the dregs at the bottom of the cadk may there fore be considered highly poisonous. Hold up Your Whip in Driving Oxen.—The Ohio Farmer says there is more in tbe move ments of the driver of an ox-team, and in carry ing of the whip, than most farmers think.

It is performed by removing a I small piece of bark and wood, leaving a smooth j and flat surface, to which a similar piece contain- j ing the bud, which is to form the future tree, is i fitted, which is sealed over immediately with col- ' lodion. This forms a strong impervious cuticle, I which secures a free circulation of the sap on the approach of warm weather and a perfect union of 1 the parts. I Permanent'’ Bii'ige,—AtFoo Chow,China, there is a bridge a mile and a halt long, spanning i the river between the foreign and native settle ments. It is built entirely of granite, rests on 180 arches, and is about 800 years old. The governmental expenditures of Great Brit ain are £215,000, more than a million of dollars, per day. The people consume .seven hundred thousand dollars of food per day more than their OWD soil produces.
