The Queers speech, that portion re
fer ing to the Alabama claims, has
caused a Hurry in the United States
and England. The speech and debate
iu parliament will be touud in another
column. Some people think they see
a speck of war between lbs two coun
tries. We are not yet alarmed
The World makes the following #*-
tiinate of the modest bill hauded in
to the Geneva Conference in behalf af
the United tates:
I. Fur the destruction
of vessel* and property be
longing to the Govern
ment of the United States 1*2.000
11. For the destruction
of merchant vessel*, car
goes aid property tailing
under the flag of the I ut
ted State* ... $17,i00,h30
111. For other damag
es or injuries t® persoua,
growing out ®ftbe destruct
ion of each class of these
vessels.
(In respect to this item
the "case" says it is im
possible at present for the
United States to present a
detailed statement, but the
amount of the claim can
not he leas than hundreds
of thousands, and possibly,
mill ion* of dollars, on ac
count of hardy, helpless
sea me u and their LaUiiiies.;
IV. Far national ex
penditures in pursuit of
the cruisers 7,080,478
V. For loss in the trans
fer of the American com
mercial marine to the lint
ish flag.
[ln respect to this iteui
the United Stales ask the
arbitrators to estimate the
amount which ctigbt t® he

ter the rebellion.]
VI. For en hauced pay

xens of the United biates,
so far as now known,,,,. | 1,120,790
VII. For prolongation
of a civil war, the addition
of large sow to lite coat
thereof and of tft* sup
pression of the ivLelliou.
(As to this item the United btatts
clpi/u that after the battle of Gettys
burg oileusive operations ®f the insur
gents were conducted only at tea,
through liic A.ngior&mfederate cruis
ers, with the hope of involving this
country in a war with Great Jfritau,
ari l that the latter ought in e<juity to
rei in burst* the United .States for the
expenses thereby entailed upon them.]

city of New York, where most of the
claims ®f individuals are held which is

According to the foregoing state
ment, so far as it goes, the figures
reuch the sum of f 26,186.896. It will
be observed, however, in reading the
exhibit, that the amounts for damage*
or injuria* to persons growing out of
the destruction of vessels by coufeder
ate cruisers, the loss in th® transfer of
th® American cuiuiueicial marine the
British flag, the prolongation of the
war, due l the continued offensive]

teers after tiie battle of Gctyeburg,
and iuterest upon ail the t'Juims up to
the day when the award is pavablf,
according to the terms of of the Wash'

icripvel lit* attention aiuelig ecien
utiu men which it claims, and which
IIM titpettswi practical bturings,
*• nil mii d to th Inct that seeds which
Imv* the genua ul vegetable lit* with
in thcin nr* much more generally sub
yet t thr minr |ili*iioiuem>ii. When
n ateJ ia perfected, it does uol at one*
spring op iolo a plant or tree. Th
lite that ia in the ered may ruuain
dormant tor an indefinite length ofj
lime in lciii|ierat* and cold region*,
all seeds ooutiuue in thia stale during
the winter a*a*u. Every granary ia
a alwr>'houae of seed* which eorni per
fect li inert, life!rs, and they will re
main uutil heat and moietura revive
tlieiii. iiuw long seeds will remain in
llua etala without losing their vitality,
lots beeu a |U< atiuu. It ha* been aa
avrled that wheat mcloeed in aarco
phagi with Egyptian raummiee fur
thoueauda of yeara, has vegatatad.
Wheat ia said t hava batn reproduc
ed from auch seed, Las* beeu aold in
the market.
There ia nothing in thia inconsist
ent with the analogy of other facta.
Dr. Lindtey, the amiuaiit English hot
auist, says; "I have new before me
three plants of raspberries, which have
been raiaad in the gardens of the Hor
ticultural Society, from aeeds taken
from the atumarh at a man whose skel
eton was f.iiimi thirty feet below the
surface of the earth, at the bottom of
a barruw that was opened ucar Dor
cheater. ll# had been buried with
some cuius of the Emfieror Hadrian,
and it ia probable, therefore, that the
seed* were 1.600 1,71)Q years old."
Numerous esses are recorded in
which earth thrown up fromn consid
erable depth has become covered with
a vegetation foreign to the neighbor
hood iu which it appears, and the
garins of which must have remained
dormant for a great length of time.
The fact that seeds retain their vitali
ty from year to jear, when exposed to
atmospheric influences, makes it ap
pear highly probable that they will
retain it for a much longer period,
bow long no oue ran aay, when light
and heal aud moisture are withdrawn.
It is a fact with which the agricul
turist ia pertcctly aware, that seeds
are not so apt to germinate on Iwing
kept over from year to rear. This is
owing to the effect of exposure to the
atmosphere and other influences, and
•very farmer or gardener thou Id be
particular tu abtaia the freahrat *aei
for piavnliitff. Sometime* a crop ia
iuet or greatly dtniiiiUhad by the age
of the feed.
