The forests of Tyrol and-Styria by , their 'magni
tude and number form one the distinguished lea.
lures of those countries when compared with
Switzerland. They cover the middle regions of the
Alps, and encroach more :open the verge of the
cultivated fields, which occupy tills lower Tart of
the valleys, in Switzerland. II might at first be
supposed that "thirsis vese - siiiiidfciiiiii of timber,
from their extreme remoteness and difficulty -of
access, would hardly beat any valve, to man, : and,
that trees, would be allowed to flourish

planted them. This is by no,rneans the case; there
