The marble-like things on your rosary plant are tubers, which are part of the plant. They are not mealy bugs. They are perfectly normal and act as storage vessels for the plant. You can also start new plants by placing them on top of the soil, burying them a little. This plant likes a sunny location and water it when dry.
