Ecoemo Ki.ncaid, of the Burman Bnn tist Mission, addressed a lurge audience in the 1st iiupust iviitircii or una city on Tuesday evening on the reigning superstition of that empire, namely Duodhisiri ; which in its various manifestations include! all l hut is revolting and shocking in the eastern niytnology. We never before obtained a stronger impression of the dreadful malignancy of error ; its tyrannous and degrading tendencies and efl'ects j and moreover the unfathomable depths of human weakness) and shame, as on that occasion. Verily, it must be so, as tne Speaker observed; it is because we have no adequate conception of what heathenism is, that our minds are so little nllbcied in view of it. When the facts reported concerning it are duly pondered, they cannot fail to awaken the sensibilities of every christian bosom, and prompt to the exercise of on effective philanthropy; like Paul whose spirit was stirred when he taw the city, (Athens) wholly given to idolatry. The speaker remarked that there was one class of persons, who think the condition of the heathen is already well enough and another class who regard them as so stupified and debased as lo oe insusceptible of Christian instruction. Both are in error. On the one hand it is hardly possible to exaggerate the degradation of the heathen. Still there are among them men of acute and powerful minds, and mere are nono so low in intellect or so besotted by superstition as to be beyond the reach of the truth. The speaker had seen native converts before the his- tie nt whose christian integrity and firmness in the midst of persecution he himself had felt owed and abashed. Let one, he said, land anywhere aloner the exten ded coast of Ilindostati or IJurmuli, a stretch of full laOO miles, and tho first object that will meet his eye, most likely, will be some monument of heathenism Pagoda or Temple. Let him go to Rangoon, which is a senpurt town 25 miles from Ihe sea up the Irrawndi. After passing through the densely populated suburbs ho will como to a spacious avenue two miles in extent, lined on cither sido with Pagodas so near together that they almost touch each other at the base. A Pagoda is a solid structure of mason work built of brick. Those referred to are not so large as some, varying from (10 ft. lo 120 ft. in height At the top is a large bar of iron, to which is affixed a network of iron from C to 8 ft. in diameter, and hung around this are numerous bells, which are made to ring whenever the wind blows somewhat freshly. These Pagodas by the natives are called cods, be cause they say some hairs, one or more, or some frag ments ot mo nones oi uuuditma arcensliined there. Following up this avenue, which is called " God's Row" to its termination, he will come to a hill which is ascended by a flight of stairs, at Ihe top of which a magnificent arched gate-way closed by gates all covered with gold leaf. These being opened, he win auvance into an open area, about live acres in extent, surrounded by a massy wall. Exactly in the centre is situated a grand Pagoda 170 ft. in diameter and 270 ft. high, covered from the base to tho top with gold leaf. This Pagoda is called " the most Excellent Deity." Let him be there on the occasion of some great festival. From early morning till d o'clock in the evening the avenuo throughout its whole length may bo seen thronged with human beings pushing their way up toward the hill. Let him at the hour of noon get up on the wall or some fragment of an idol whence he may look down on this innumerable multitude gathered from all parts, some even as fur as V4W miles distant, embracing Ihe noble and mean, all classes and descriptions of persons; each are bow ing down, his hands tilled with otlerings. Among them he will see many intelligent countenances. Let him single out the most intelligent, approach him, and ask him why he call this Pagoda the most Excellent Deity? Oh, he will say, under that Pagoda are U identical hairs of Gaudama. But who is Gaudama? He was once a man, was likewise a sinner and died. lie was mado a god sometime before his death. It is related that it happened on this wise. lie was a king, when it was made known to him that he was destined to become a god; and the manner in which it was to be brought about. According to intimations received, he abdicated his throne, and with his wife and twochildren set out fur a great desert in Central India, to live there an ascetic and secluded life. While prosecuting their journey, two reindeers harnessed to a coach presented themselves so they mounted and traveled with wonderful speed, all the hills being levelled and the valleys filled and a beautiful smooth road prepared as they proceeded; and when they came to the tangled forest, this gave place to springing flowers filling the air with fragrance, the wild beasts Inst thoir savage fierceness, and at last they were brought to a lake precisely in the centre of the desert, on whose margin rose at once a magnificent palace for their accommodation. Forty years he walked tho lofty halls of his palace, with arms folded and absorbed in meditation. At the end ot that time he was not a god yet He now sat down with his feet bent under him, and his arms folded, wrapped in profound thought when suddenly the godhead unfolded, burst (to pre serve the allusion) like a flower into full bloom. The evidences of hishavint? become a eoi were four in number. The 1st was that all his fingers became the same length: 2d. All his toes became the same length: 3d. His ears were made pendulous and elongated so as to reach down to the shoulders: 4lh. Seven rays of light went up from his head. He continued a deity 40 years. One day he dined on pork, and the consequence was an incurable disease. His physician told him he must die on account of a sin he had formerly committed, being that of murder but that he should not cease to be a trod. He directed however that they should make an image of him as he sat under the sacred Banyan tree with his legs and arms folded up, and that they should shave Itia Dead, and preserve his bones as relics to be enshrined ind worshipped. Rangoon contains 2000 Pagodas, yet is it comparatively a small cittr. There is Ava, "the Golden Citv.' situated on the same river, 500 miles farther up. juany mnes oeiore you reacn it you are made aware ot your approach by the continually increasing number of temples and pago las. Enter the southern side. Then comes in view an immense Temple (not pagoda) which is called the Crown of the World.' Go up story after story until yon reach its top, whence you shall be able to command an extensive view of the pairndai and temples, and you will be bewilder ed and astonished at the number, all shining with gold. Enter this temple In the centre you will see JOURNAL, 1845. an immense idol cut out of the purest white marble, and seated on a throne cut from the same, which is said to have cost 140,000 rupees, or $05,000 and there are besides 500 marble images, two or three times as large as life, and an incredible number of smaller nno. T . 1.1 L . . .... s..iv. ji, wuuiu inn oe extravagant to say mat the cost of this one Temple exceeds that of all the churches in Now York put together. Go to Ilindostan for another exhibition of Heathenism. A little below Calcutta is the Temple of Kali, the goddess of Destruction. It is the anniversary of that goddess, and a grand festival is to be celebrated. At the earliest dawn of morning you will see people streaming in from every avenue. From one street mav be seen issuinor m.iliim.lo ,li.i over with Vermillion. From unniher a rreat number with all kinds of instruments of music, surmounted with an imnrre of the rrmlilpsa K.ili Pm, .,,.ii,- persons all besmeare , and of most disgusting appearance some with rods of iron, spits and living serpents wreathing their arms.

The hands ot persons alio has murdered clasped together form her girdle, her necklace is made of the skulls of those whom she had slain. Go out now and round upon the other side of the Temple. There stands a row of blacksmiths, ready to perforate tho arms, sides or tongues of those, whom we have seen provided with rods, spits and living scrpenls, theso latter are dra wn through the holes thus made in the flesh. But this is not all. There is a long verandah, supported by a row of pillars a balcony above filled with musicians. ,The Brahmins stand ready for the sacrifice of a vast number of animals. A signal is given and all aro slain at the same moment, while the blood flows out like a river. Another signal is given, and all are silent. Still another, and the silence is still deeper. After a while suddenly the great drum beats, and tho whole band of musicians strike in, and all begin to dance furiously, and anon, they send up the cry, " Great is Kali!" The speaker stated that lie arrived in Bunnah in 1830. At that time there were but 2 christian churches. Now there are f0 churches and 8000 converls. The whole Bible has been translated into the Btir-meso in 3 editions, and the New Testament into the Karen. For tuore than 1000 miles there are cliurci-es here and there. There has been no place where this gospel has been preached but it has taken root. In Ava, under tho very shadow of the Imperial Palace, rose a church 10 years ago. More than 2000 have been converted during the past year. Since he left five ofhis missionary brethren have died three in Burmah and two in Cliin. tin nil o ., .,.i. ing tributo to Rev.

It is said to have been ascertained that half a million of eggs are consumed every month in the city of New York.

Fine seeds may be smothered if covered more than from one-eighth to half an inch deep; and their short roots may be parched if exposed to the sun except in morning and evening. To a fine toil, therefore, we must add the protection of tkade, and in time of drought, a regular supply of moisture. If the seeds are sown in an open border, a sprinkling of water in the evenings is best, but carefully abstain from applying so much as will bake the ground. In gardens of considerable extent, when new seed! are to be sown, and nothing is known in regard to their germination, it would be prudent to tr them in different soils and situations. We have succeeded in one spot and failed in all the rest Some plants are coarse feeders, and do best when well supplied with manure from the stable. Of this kind is the beautiful Cypress vine, so remarkable for the delicacy of its leaves, and the brightness of its flow-era. David Tliomas, in G. Farmer, 1840.

The amount of grains exported from this country to the British province!, exceeds in value four millions of dollars annually. Nothing is needed, it ia urged. except continued peace and friendly commercial relations, indefinitely to increase this already considerable trade. The writer of the letter very urgently urges upon the attention of British statesmen, the importance of admitting Indian corn, from the United States, into Great Britain, free of duty. Wheat now, he says, forms no part of the diet of the laboring classes ; so that the free admission of maize wotild not materially impair the consumption of English wheat flour. Nor can this corn be cultivated in England, by reason of the coldness nf tho ilimi. i-j. more than any other grain in the world, can be made a luxury for the laboring classes, by being prepared in a great variety of ways; and it is said now to be relished by the great body of the laboring people of A rnn.ii..

The writer urges the impossibility of an English farmer being able, with his eight shilling! a week, to feed bis family with wheaten bread, even at ita reduced rate of duty ; and thence enforces the necessity of throwing corn into Great Britain, as a cheaper article of food, than any now in use.
