SPARE THE TREES.
The more superficial observer traveling
either in England or on the Continent,
must have noticed the extreme care which
is taken to preserve trees and fruits from
destruction. The country-seats and parks
of the wealthy are StitiotindkOvith strong
walls, not so much from an idea of exclu
siveness, as with a vieletoward the preser
vation of the shrubbery; and even on the
highways the trees are guarded with the
utmost care. Among the peasantry of
Spain and some portions of Germany, the
custom is general of depositing in the
ground the pit or seed of the fruit just
eaten. It is also an old oriental custom.
he result is seen in the large number of
ruit trees that shade the highways of some
.'ountries. The magnificent trees, also,
hich on many parts of the continent line
the public roads for miles, bear abundant
testimony to the zealousness with which
their growth is guarded. In England the
same vigilance is exercised to prevent the
destruction or mutilation of the forests
It is but a few weeks since an English
baronet was sentenced to six weeks' hard
labor and compelled to pay a fine of seven
pounds for marking and causing to be
felled two trees on an estate to which he
laid claim, but of which he was not the re
cognized owner. Nor does the sentence
seem to have been thought by the English
pc ople ton severe—the public verdict being,
" served him right."
The Americans would do well to copy
after the example of their European neigh
bors in this matter. Yearly and daily and
hourly our magnificent forests, the distinc
tive beauty of an American landscape, are
falling under the woodman's axe—a sacri
flee to the greed of gain. Undoubtedly
one cause of the different estimate that the
inhabitants of the two countries put upon
the value of trees is, that in old countries
the fact is realized that the forests are
nearly gone, and must be guarded if any
portion of them is saved. In America, on
the contrary, settlers never can believe that
the vast forests will be exhausted. The
esult, however, is the same. A farmer.
raving selected his land, at once goes to
ork to clear off the timber; and seemingly
ossessed of an unquiet spirit urging him
rn, stops not until he has removed nearly
very particle of the wood, often leaving
r is cottage standing alone, without even the
.helter of a solitary tree—a fiery furnace
n summer, and a bare and bleak : place in
inter. Nor do the consequences end
ere. The farmer soon finds the cooling
.rings, at which he was wont to water his
ocks, either drying up earlier that usual,'
affording much less water than when he
st settled the farm, and htnorantly earl
tea it to an unusual number of droughts
d " dry spells," instead of finding the
ue solution in he fact that the chief pro
otion of the cooling springs that formed
ch a prominent feature of attraction in
using him to purchase, was destroyed by
msell when be cut down the forests.
But notwithstandiug the vastness of the
rests that nature so prodigally scattered
er the country, they are fast disappear
before the axe, and it is now a serious
cation how long they will last —Journal
Commerce.
FLORAL EFFECTS;
the beauty and effectiveness of "flower

ls, and more especially annuals, be
rated in masses. A bed of tulips, gor-

last century; while the same flower,
as we frequently see, in a straight

token of their possible beautiful effect.

mouth. This will give him the idea of
raising his head to loosen his bit, and then
you can draw the bit a little tighter every
time you put it on, and he will raise his
bead to loosen it. By this means you can
gradually get his head and neck in the
position you wish him to cary it, and give
him a graceful carriage without hurting
him, making him angry, or causing his
mouth to be sore."
TO KEEP TIRES. ON WHEELS.
Hear what a practical man says on this
subject :—" I ironed a wagon one year ago
for my own use, and before putting on the
tires I filled the felloes with linseed oil;
and the tires have worn out and were never
loose. I ironed a buggy for my own use
several years ago, and the tires are now as
tight as when put on. My method of filling
the felloes with oil is as follows : I use a long
cast-iron heater, made for the purpose.
The oil is brought to a boiling heat, the
wheel is placed on a stick, so as to hang in
the oil each felloe, an hour for a common
sized felloe. The timber should be dry, as
green timber will not take oil. Care should
be taken that the oil be no hotter than a
boiling heat, in order that the timber be not
burnt.. Timber filled with oil is not suscep
tible to water, and the timber is much more
durable. I was amused, some years 'ago,
when I told the hlacksmil h how to keep the
tire tight on wheels, by his telling me that
it was a profitable business to tighten tires,
and the wagon-maker will say that it is
profitable to him to make and repair wheels;
but what will the farmer who supports the
wirelright and smith say ?"—Exchange.
PRESERVATION OF FRUIT.
At the Russian Court fruit is preserved
by being packed in creosotized lime. The
lime is slacked in water in which a little
creosote has been dissolved, and is allowed
to fall to powder. The bottom of a plain
deal box is covered with it one inch thick,
and over it is a sheet of paper. Upon this
the fruit, well selected and cleansed, is
arranged; over this another sheet of paper,
and on the top of this another stratum of
prepared lime; in the corners a little finely
powdered charcoal is put. The whole box
is then filled in the same manner, and the
well-fitting lid nailed down. Fruit kept
in this manner will remain. intact at least
one year.
A WORD IN SEASON.
As the warm season , approaches, the
farmer who intends to be ready for the
duties it will impose, cannot fail to derive
strength for their performance by recurring
to the saying of Solomon. Whether he
was a practical farmer at any period of his
life or not, is a matter of small consequence,
since it is clear that, in most things, he
diSplayed great sagacity and a profound
knowledge of the results of human actions.
In one of his excursions, he seems to have
passed by the farm or plantation of a lazy
farmer. The grounds were overgrown with
weeds and briars, retarding the growth of
the struggling grain. The cause he saw,
and considered it well. The owner of that
farm was yet in bed, saying or dreaming of
" a little more sleep, a little more slumber,
a little folding the hands in sleep." This
will never do. To farm properly, a man
must begin work with the opening of the
season suited to each department. He
must not content himself with eight hours
for a day's work, but meet each claim at
the proper time, and if he does so, he will
prosper and afford no chance to the passer
by to denounce him a sluggard.
SICILIAN MODE OF EATING STRAW
BERRIES.—Throughout Sicily it is the cus
tom to eat strawberries along with sugar
and the juice of an orange or two. The
strawberries, a small kind, come to table
without their stalks, are crushed with white
powdered suc , ar ; and the juice of an orange
is squeezed over them. The result is a
most fragrant and agreeable compound,
much superior, in my opinion, to strawber
ries and cream. Indeed, I think it is all
but worth while to make a journey to Sicily
to be initiated into this mode -of eating
strawberries.— Gardners' Chronicle.

ANECDOTE OF DR. PAYSON.
An eminent divine now living related to
me, not long since, the substance of a con
versation between Dr. Payson and himself
with reference to the relation of Christ's
death to his people. The question put to
Dr. Payson was,
" What relation does the death of Christ
bear to me, if I am one of his sheep ?"
At the time of the conversation, Dr. Pay
son was sitting with his friend in a parlor
fronting the public square in New Haven,
Conn. Dr. Payson sat for a moment with
out answering the question, and then said
to his friend :
" Look out of this window upon yonder
green. Imagine it filled with people of
every description of characters, of all sizes
and ages. Imagine that they are looking
at the huge elm in the centre of the green,
and upon that tree is suspended a man who
is struggling and gasping in the agonies of
death. You instantly become interested.
You go out on the green yourself, to inquire
into the cause of this fearful tragedy. You
look around you, that you may meet with
some person who can give you an intelli
gent account of the transaction. You see a
venerable-looking man in the crowd, and
you approach him You ask him if he can
tell you why that 'man is stretched on
yonder tree ? He replies as follows: This
is a wonderful thing - that occurs in our city
to-day. That man whom you see suspended
on that tree is one who was never known
to sin. He has lived among us for more
than thirty years, and set before all a per
fect example. In his intercourse with others,
gentleness and love was prominent. In fact,
he has devoted his life to the good of others.
Ile has visited the sick and imprisoned.
Ile has ministered to the poor and needy;
and he has poured the oil of consolation into
the hearts of the bereaved and afflicted.
But notwithstanding all this, he I.as labored
most of rill for a higher and nobler object.
El is chief aim Ints been to make men good
comes the
happy hereafter. ' But now
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY. MAY '3, 1866.
strangest part of his history; when he has
tried hardest for the good of others, he has
been most persecuted. Several times he
barely escaped death at the hands of those
upon whom he desired to confer the richest
blessings; and now, as the highest evidence
of his good will to man, he is suspended on
yonder tree to bear the punishment due to
one who was sentenced to death for his
crimes, and who must have died, if this man
had not offered to die in his stead !' By
this time," said Dr. Payson, " your feelings
would be excited to the highest point of in
dignation against the man for whom this
noble and magnanimous person was strug
gling in the agonies of death, and you would
ask your informant who the monster was
that had suffered this pure and noble being
to die in his stead ! What would be your
amazement and shame if be should reply
'Thou ART THE MAN.' "
The country was startled a few weeks
since, by the announcement of an extensive
robbery in New York city to the amount of
a million and a half of dollars. The facts
as reported make the theft one of the
coolest, boldest, and most skillful on record.
Four men, in the busiest hour of the day,
in the busiest street, enter the office of one
of the busiest of men, and-while the 'ring
leader, gifted with a ready tongue, is en
gaging the attention of the venerable mer
chant, by a preconcerted plan one of his
comrades glides into the safe, and carries
of two tin boxes and a wallet On meeting
and looking over their gains they are aghast.
There is a million and a half of dollars and
'aluable papers. The leader an adroit
man, soon sees that he can make a good
strike and keep clear of prison. ' We will
bide these bonds and then open negotia
tions with the old gentleman! Soon the
parties are brought together and diplomacy
begins. The rogue frankly says, " You
can have me or the money. Which? If
you will give one hundred thousand dollars
and secure me from personal harth, it is a
bargain; otherwise, not a dollar will you
have." A. transaction . like dila' 'requires
management and time. The robber, " mas
ter of the situation," patiently waits in the
public house, while officers go to and fro
between New York and Boston. A. mys
tery hangs over the affair. At present it
would seem that, like the case of the Con
cord robbers, all the public are to know is,
that felony has been compounded with.
Here is a case more alarming than the
theft itself. If the officers of the law, in
open violation of the plain provisions of the
statute,._ bargain with thieves, crime will
have a holiday. The only thing to be sure
of is, that a large sum be clutched, and
then good terms will be made. Only be
adroit enough to hide the stolen treasure
and have nerve sufficient to assure the late
owner that sooner tban.3ield you will go to
prison and destroy his wealth, and the
point is gained.
The effect of this upon public morality
is deplorable. Not only are old rogues
emboldened, but the fear of punishment
loses all influence. Young thieves are
greatly encouraged. The moral sense of
the community gets blunted, and the very
foundations of security are undermined.
The evil will surely work out its own cure,
because this state of things if -allowed to•
continue, would bring ruin upon society.
But the sooner the practice is stopped the
better. Every repetition of bargaining
adds to the corruption of public morals.
We trust that some one who thus com
pounds with crime will FOO.' be made to
feel the hand of he law that justice
may not be stabbed by her assumed guar
dians.—Christian Register.
