Itussia hud been in ao tual conflict with the Cln'ucie on two oo. cations lately once at Hongkong, and again on tlio Siberian frontier and in both Intlancci the Celestial Lad lo fly before the force of their old fiiend, the Czar. SirJ.nnci Drooke had written a graphic narrative of tho insurrection and signal punishment of tlio Chinese at Sarawak. According to tho most moderate- cttiinato one thousand Chinese wero killed at tho various placet, whilo n't their flourishing ae tile merits, except at Kuchiu, have been destroyed. It is asserted that tho Cabinet of the United Slate rnnnot prciorve a neutral! ty in tLo Ivutcrn contest ; and the Eng. lisli paper assert that Mr. Reed's oflcrs of negotiation will be hoard uniidst the din of war which will rage in China by tlio time lie reaches there. Englund niserts llmt abould tho resort to an ilil-etuid blockade of the ports of China, no neutral flag will be per mil ted to enter; and the French papers ftfiuct not to believe in the sinceri ty of our government on the subject, and say llmt the idea of opening up the cm' piro of China to civilization was first broached by tho government in Washing ton, in 1855. Lords Elgin and Aliburiiliam the English plenipotentiary and commander in-Chief hud taken their final departure for China. The French expedition was tibout to set out for the same destination Tbo English opposition journals i loud in their complaints in consequence of tho delay of Lord Elgin's departure for China, and atiito that not a moment wan lost in despatching available forces to sup port Sir John lowering an insinuation that tho ralmerston parly have a prefer coco for blood-letting over peace-making.

Chinese Infg.inai. Machini:. A liou tonanton board I ho oliip Niger, in tho British squadron in iho China Sens, writes: ' "Several attempts have been inudo to "blow tho Encounter up by rafis with bar rels of powder, but u 11 unsuccessful, ns we Lave intercepted thorn flouting down with the tide. Most of them hnd about half a ton of powder in thorn, and tho infernal machines, as 1 may call them, were of the most ingenious contrivance. Two rnfls, .with the powder in a largo barrel under each, wera fastened together with a rope about forty feet long, mid tho rope was v buoyed up by bamboos. If they comn across a ship's bows tho rope catches, and one raft goes oil each sldo, and, by means of somo detonating process, burst's directly it comes in contact with tho sido of the ship."

A Anrtenl I fMHUu Pea. A reat deal of interest as excited at ono limo by tho faol that somo wheat tak en from a iniimery of Thrhr-s, moro than two thousand years old, had been success, fully cultivated nnJ niado to produce . wheat. Quito recently nn equally inter esting event lias occurred, where a frog. . metit of the old life of Kgypt a truo typo uf tho fertility of the classic country ; of the Nile, and unquestionably the most i truly historical of any esculent we possess ' has been produced not only to "ratify our curiosity butabouur nppitite. The circumstance tlint led to tlio discovery of , this companion of mummies and inhabit- lints of pyramids, are in themselves as in torching as the plant is disiirict from evory knowu member of its useful family. Du. ring Ihe explorations of Egypt by Sir Gardiner Wilkinson, a vase was found iu mummy pit, the agi of which was com pmea at sdoui in roe thousand years. This vase hermetically srnlej, was pre sented to the I.-iuh Museum; Mr. Petti. grow, tho librarian to the late Duke of Sussex, proceeded to open the vase to as certain iu couieoti, and iu so doing un fortunately broke il ia piece. The inleri or contained a mass of dust, and a few grains of wheat and vctche, and cn ex mining further, a few pea wero found, entirely ahrivelM, tf a resin yellow color andasl.ird at stone. It was known that mummy wheat had been rucit:teJ aficr aa interment e-f two thousand years; and it wnt determined that tho futt prat ever found in a mummy va tlioulJ La tub jected to the experiment of revival. Mr l'eltigrow accordingly distributed among Lis learuod friend these desiccated peat, reserving thrt-e forhlimelf as niero eurl otitic. Those who tried to crow the peas failed, and no more was thought about them till the remaining three wore given in Mr. Griinstono. of Ilislilnte. Mr. Grimtluno tried hi Land at thoni, luljcct ed them to Lent and moitture, and, after thirty days, ono mise ruble plant appeared above ground. Uy pa'ient csro and in gonious culture this plant was brought lo produce nineteen pods, which were ripen cd, and planted the next year ; and this was tho foundation of the stock which is just beginning to bo known as the E;ypt ian pea. Dotaniats wero as much do lighted et antiquarians at the success of tho experiment j for it gave tiiem a new varioty of the grcatost value and mostdis tinct character. Its blotiom is unlike every other pea; it more nearly reieinh let a bell than tho wing of a butterfly, and is veined with green lines on a whilo ground. Tho blossoms break at every joint in clusters of two, four, and eight, and are tuccccJed by pod that protrude crook edly through them, each pod containing from five to ten peas, which, when, coa.ee d are de'iciously flavored, und mull in the mouth like marrow ; in fact, there is no pea lo equal it ; so that dusty Egypt ha conferred upon u, through those few needs, a palatial benediciicn. The Old Oaken Uickrt. This most popular song was written by Samuel 1'. Wooduorlh, while yet Lo was a journey, man printer, working in nn officii at the corner of Chambers and Chatham streets. Near by, in Frankfort street, was a drink, ing thon, kept by a man named Mallory, uliere Woodworth and sevoral particular friends used to resort. One afternoon the liquor was super-excellent. Woodworth seemed inspired by it ; for, after taking a draught, ho set his glass upon tho table, and smacking Li lips, declared that Mili tary's eau tie v! was superior to anything Im had ever tasted. " No," said Mallory : "you are mistaken; there was ono which. m loili our estimations, far surpassed tins in the way of drinking." " What wns limit asked Wooilivorth, duhiously. " Tho druughU of pure, fresh sprinff wat er, that we used lo drink from the old oak en bucket that hung in the wcU, after our return from the labors or the Held on a sul try day in summer." Tlio tear-drop clis- lened for a moment in Woodworth's eye. " True, true," ho replied, and shortly after quitted tho place. lie immediately re turned lotho office, grasped a pen, and in half an hour tho " Old Oaken Uuciioi'one of tho most delightful compositions in our language, was ready in manuscript to be embalmed in the memories of succeeding generations.
