a tide itn culture is rapidly increasing
in the arid Territories east of the
Rocky Mountains Its v.cial value
to our tratim.Miriaissippi regions resides
in its rapid growth. A tree of this
species in Colorado iii five yearn grew
to a diameter of trunk of fifteen inches.
This quality will enable our fruit cal
turintn to clothe many arid regions
with a thick coat of arboreal vegeta
tiro], averting excessive evaporation,
and Itllleltorating climates. A xpeci
ineri tree, in the Botanical Gardens of
Melbourne, Australia, is 480 feet high.
Its timber ix excellent for house arid
ship building, for furniture, &c. Its
bark ix rich in tannin arid in medical
properties, promising to nupercede the
use of quinine by a product of equal
benefit, without its injurione qualities.
The tree, itself, whße growing, is said
to absorb the miasma of malarial die
tricts' arid to improve their salubrity.
In Califorrf several efforts at plant
ing on aconsi ale scale have been
commenced. M .1. T. Stratton, in

planted 50 acres in two varieties of the
ucalyptus, which now average 10 feet

citizens shall apply to the judge of the
United States circuit court in whose
circuit th'd town or city may lie located,
that they desire the law to lie enforced
in said place, and requiring said court
to provide f(-(r the appointment of fed
eral inspectors and supervisors of elec
tion to attend all registration of voters
and elections of representative or dele
gate to Congress, and to remain in ses
sion while the act is being in force to
transact business under it. Elaborate
powers are given to the inspectvr - to

(1 r. -A few days after the capture
of Fort Sumter, in April, 1861, when
the voice of the whole country wan for
war, we had a conversation with a
gentleman who was an officer in the
Mexican war, and who besides, in Ohio
has obtained eminence as a civilian,
that we have often thought of since.
said he to us: "I saw to-day an old
comrade of mine in Mexico, a West
Pointer, but who resigned his position
in the army a few years ago. I asked
him why he was not in uniform, and
expressed my surprise that he was not
already a colonel or general of volun
teers. His reply was, 'I thi9k and
have had lighting enough , What I
want in this war is a place by which I
can make money.' ' sought to
get that place here. He made an ef
fort to be selected by the Government
as a buyer of horees, but failed. He
next endeavored to borrow a few hun-
dred dollars of a military friend of ours
then and now in the regular army, for
the purpose . of entering into business
where he would get army patronage.
Tieing refused, he applied, as we un
deretami, to Gen. Burns for a position
in the Commissary Department in this
city, but failed also in getting it. There
being nothing here to suit him, he
wended his way back to Illinois, and
became a.sort of secretary to Governor
Yates, and everything Q 1 _being un
successful, he chose at heat to go into
the army: But he did not want to go
where there was fighting at all. It
was money he was After, and money
he has made as General and President
of the United States. If he had ob
tained the position he asked liar, us
buyer of horses, the country would
have had a competent if not an honest
Wall in that place, and we should not
now have a bad President, who makes
the tilling of his puree his principal
business.,—Clartanati Enquirer,
