Tins War in Europe. The French
press i still' desirous of peace, and says
the defence ot Paris is impossible. Tho
Frcnsb h suffered two defeats lately,
one between Villors and Scleux, and tbe
oilier near Nilliers. Reports also state
tlut ltowiao soldier attempted tbe
assassination of King William. It is al
to rumored tbat no collision will take
place between Russia and England, ow.
iug to tho treaty of 1850, and that a
Congress of nations will take placo in

will be adjudicated, and tbat Russia is

Clearing Forest Lands.
Mr. Luther: Sir: The enclosed
article was written.by J. S. Schultz for
the Shoe and Leather Reporter, and is
desigued to correct some erroneous no
tions which some people bold iu regard
to hemlock land.
The article refers to Montmorency,
which is well known to all around this
section, and tho facts were obtained of
Col. Wilcox and others, who are per
fectly conversant with them:
Yours, truly, J. Sciicltz.
Many years ago, a gentleman of lurjrc
wealth, living in Philadelphia, deter
mined to clear a few hundred acres of
his vast possessions in tbe northern coun
ties of Pennsylvania. He selected for
liis experiment four hundred acres ot
juost beautifully situated hemlock tim
ber land. The growth of the trees indi
cated great strength of soil, and as he
had many thousand acres of these land
in the tame vicinity, he determined to
test the truth of the theory so prevalent,
that hemlock lands are cold and unpro
ductive. With this view be had felled,
t tbe proper season of the year, a
square of 400 acres. Tanners wili ap
preciate the growth of hemlock timber
n this land when they are assured that
it would yield 15 to 20 cords of bark to
the acre, in addition to that which might
Jiave been obtained from the hard wood,
rvhich, in that section, constitutes about
one-quarter to one-third of the growth.
Some idea of the amount of timber on
this land, may be obtained from ihe fact
hat, when this fallow bus burned over
-the heat was so intense that large limbs
of trees were carried grcut distances by
he strong currents of uir created.
For two or three years this laud pro
duced wheat in prolific 'quantities and
tfor perhaps double this period produced
jprassbut finally it lost its power, and
no-day it is a barren waste, hardly pro
ducing grass enough to pay lor mowiu.
Tbemclusion seems to be that lieui
.lock lands soon wear out, and are com
jparBV.ve'iy worthies?. Against this con
Jnsicn 1 want to present a few consid
erations. I wish J could base them on
chemical knowledge, and thus make
'them -authoritative: but they will be
utJh li'&PW; and conclusions as seem UDiei
. " t
1 nd. nccunied bv the ever-
greens such as piue, hemlock and the
like do not anuually throw of! their lo-
tageas do the other trees ot the loretst;
Mud for this reason, no doubt, the heui
)'ock .forest does nut accumulate so much
vegetable soil os the laud covered with
oak, maple, &e. Rut what matters it
how much of this accumulated soil
there U if it is til consumed when the
fallow is burned over, as was evidently
ihecaso when those 400 acres were
cleared'
It must be wi hin the experience if
persons familiar with (allow burning,
ihut whete logs ore heaped and burned
It often happens tltuc the soil and earth
lire luirued to .the depth of one or two
feet, iitrtil either stone or bardpan is
reached. This log heap deposits, ot
course, uioto or less ashes, which is a
fertilizer, and will for a few years rro-
-duce good crops, but alter the effect of
the ashes passes away toere is no sou
".elt.
In tho experiment under considera
tion, the whole 400 acres were a log
J'ap, and the accumulated vegetntion
tf a .thousand years oruore was debtrov
td ia one day, while in iu place was left
ii dMsitof wood ashes; tbat is the whole
case, and truly describes the practical
clcaiins of forest lands all over ine
country.
"liw richer and stronger the soils, of
course, ihe tailor and stouter will be tbe
forests, tiod, when cleared in tbe usual
way, the more certain will be tbe de..
struction. A moderate fire, such as will
be produced by the burning of limbs,
toD and brushwood, when well spread
over the ground, is at advantage, since
ihe chips and Cebris oi Clearing wouiu
lie nil nrvsumed.
It ia now proven that hemlock lands
ar not necessarily cold and barren. The
comities ot Greene, Delaware, Ulster
and Stillwas, in New York State, pre
sent abundant evidence ot tbe lertuity
f hemlock lands. These counties are
jo-day the best dairy portions of our
State, and where the land is arl!a at
1L are. for tbe Durposes named, equal
to Duchess, Columbia and tbe older
hard wood counties.
The moral of the statement is this:
the tanner and the lumberman must go
iirst as pioneers and fall and remove tbe
heavy timber; then the agriculturist may
follow, and with comparative ease and
Hafetv burn the tops ana brushwood re
inaioiog. When this course is pursued
. hemlock lands are as fertile as any, in
deed more so than those lands which
produoe the stunted white oak, pine an
' cedar Lands cannot be poor that bear
trees from two to tour feet id diamoter,
100 feet high, and more than 80 of such
to the tare. There stands tbe evidence
.of its strength, and only when consumed
fcy tbe folly of miu does it pass away in
The First Senatorial District.
From tho Maucli Clunk Coal Gotelte.
Since our last ifguo Mr. Watt tie
member ol our Stiito Sciuto from the
lirt district hns died. This leaves the
present delegation the the Senate a
tie 16 Republicans und a like number
oi Dem jtrats. Mr. Watt's place can
only be filled by an clecctiou in bin
district which must be called by tbe
speaker of tbe Senate, and which must
take place not later than thirty days al
ter said call frlmll bo made. Whether
Mr. Speaker White will make this call
before the meeting of tho Legislature
we have no means of knowing. The
Firt Senatorial District is politically
very close, and the result of an election
considerably doubtful. The Repcpli
cans, dur.ng tho lust Congressional
election, were divided into two (actions,
and tho feeling between them was quite
bitter. This state ot things, to some
degree, still, unfortunately, exist. Mr.
Watt had two years yet to serve. His
seat was contested by bis Democratic
opponent, and it was only at the close
of the last session of the , Legislature
that that Committee reported in his favor
and he was confirmed in bis election.
There ate quite a number of candidates
offering for tho unexpired terra, but
they have all been mote or less connec
ted with tho rival factions mentioned.
Wc regret to see this, and hope that nil
these'p&rtics willjwithdrawtheir claims,
and unite upon some competent candi
date who bas been in no way connected
with the late family fight. There are
many such in that district, and it is o
the highest importance that a Republi
can should be rctruned from it. This
can bo done by a united effort, and the
Senate saved to our party. Never was
there a time when in nn election in
a single district it was so important that
harmoney should prevail. The loss ot
this elcctioo'will give'a majority of one
to the Democrats iu tho State .Senate,
an evil whieh we sincerely hope will
nut occur. With a hearty pull and a
pull altogether tills evil can bo avoid
ed. During the next session of tho
Legislature many important measures
will be presented, and it isextreniely
necssaryh&t the miijoiityiny the Senate
s Louie be good and pure men.
Tho Ifardsr of Engineer Eellogg.
The shouting of Engineer Kellojrg
y Surgeon Kiug at key Weft, was giv
en in our telegraphic despatches a few
days since. A Washington coriespon
dent gives the following particulars :
The .Navy Department to-day recived
news of the fatal affray at key west, be-
ween surgeon William M. King and
Chief Kngeneer Mortimer L. Kellogg,
(which resulted in the almost immedate j
j Jeath of the latter. The particulars, i y
beyoud those contained iu thc'.deRpatch
seut by Capt. Clary of the Terror, havo
et been received at the department ;
but officers here, who are acquainted
ith both parties, have no difficulty in
accounting lot tbe affray and its terrible
reusult.
Chief En-rencer Kelcptr, the officer
who met his death so trade a manner,
was well known as a most quarrelsome
man, aud a very irritable and disacree
ble niessuiate. His assistaut, Dr. Kin-:,
is a pompous, overbearing, and blustcr-
ng officer, and, at times, 'particularly
insulting. He always carried a Ler
ranger pistol, and frequently displayed
it in a most offensive mauner. Both
gentlitnon possessed uufortunate habits,
and, wheu in their cups, wero exceed
ingly disagreeable compauious.
The opinion ncre is mac a quarrci
over bouio tnniug tnauer rcsuuea in
Kellogg's slapping tho doctor s lace, who
in return drew ins Lierniiger ana nrea.
Kellocg is said to have died almost in
stantly. As the affray took place on
shore, the doctor was at once arrested ny
the civil authorities, and held to await
tbe action of the grand jury. The of
fenco ol murder not coming within the
category of military crimes m timo ot
peace, the naval authorities will have
nothing to do with tbe matter beyond
dismit-sing Dr King as soon as bo hhall
have been cotvicted in a crvil court.
Cant. Clarv's dispatch says that an
inquest was held on the body of Mr
Kellogg, and that the jury reudered a
verdict of manslaughter in the secoud
degree In the absence of tunher par
ticulars, this woula muicaie mat greac
provocation bad been offered for tbe
deed. Of tbe two men, Kellogg seems
to have been tbe most liked ia the ser
vice: therefore, sympathy here Is entire
ly with him, and much sorrow is expres
sed at his trsgio eud- Doth officers were
attached to the monitor 1 error.

Ha Has Said It.'
Several years ago, when preaching for
a time at a church 011 the other side of
the Atlantic, my attention was attracted
by a little girl, .Sabbath after Sabbath,
in the corner of a certain pew. She in
variubly kept her dark sparkling eyes
fixed on the minister, indicating an un
divided atteu'ion. Several times I bad
determined to speak to this infantile
worshiper after the Bervice, but before
reaching her she was always gone.
Week after week I watched her, and
found that like a faithful sentinel, she
was ever at her post, manifesting the
same devout interest.
On inquiry I found she was not, nor
ever had be;n, a pupil at the Sunday
School, and further information pro
claimed the fact that she was a beauti
ful "lily among thorns," or an exquisite
flower,
"Bora to blush unseen.
And waste its swectnees on the desert air'
No friendlyihand bad led her to the
sanctuary, and no cue cared for her soul.
Rut Israel's gentle Shepherd sought out
his tfludcr lamb, and brought her o his
house, where she beard the music of
Cavalry, which melted bcr heart und
drew it to Jesus.
One Sabbath, I looked for my little
hearer, but hhe was not there: soon a
lady called and. requested me to visit a
little girl who was sick. On entering
the chamber, whnl was my surprise to
find it was my'little hearer. On con
versing with this dear child ot twelve
years, I found, to my inexpressible de
light, that I was conversing witb'a ma
ture saint already ripened for glory.
Never shall I forget her sweet smile, n
her more than earthly joy, and her
beautiful nud unwavering confidence
Jesus. When asked how she knew that
Jesus bad heard her prayer for her
mother, whom she thought she should
soon leavo, she replied iu a voice soft
and touching as an iEolian barp: "IIk
rtAs said it. He has said it." That
wasenough;for her. Never did I liavo a
firmer illustration of tho meaning of
laith, than from the lips of that girl,
who in holy triumph soon passed away.
Surely out of tin mouth of babes and
sucklingsthe great Redeemer perfects
praise. Let not tlio Church, let not min
isters or Sunday School teachers, let not
parents suppose that very young chil
dren are too young to come to Jesus,
fie himself declares "of such is the
kinedom of heavcu." Amn-iccui Met-
senger,
Something to Ckeer. "I will tell
ou something to cheer you,"i9a:d a poor
woman to one of tho mission schoo
teachers. "One af ternoou I was obliged
to go, leavingjiny two children at horn0
alone. I was kept out till long niter dark"
When I reached my door I heard the
little ones talking, audstopped to listen
"I wish mother would come home, I am
. so afraid," wid Tommy. Little Mary i
, Krsoi: un ."Don't crv. Tommy. Don't
ia a " '
you know .Tesu died lor little children,
and he'll take care of you and mej don't
be afraid; let'a bin-;." Oh, I bless tho
hour when my children first went to
Sunday School," said the mother, with !
tear of gratitude in he-eyes.
Beyond Price.
I have in my house a small bandker-
chief, not worth three cents to you, bnt
you could not buy it frimi me. A wo
man brought it, and said to my wife:
''I am very poor; I would give him a
thousand pounds if I hid, but he bro't
this. I married with the fairest and
brightest prospects befoto mej but my
husband took to drinkit g, and eveiy-
thing went. The piano-forle that my
mother gave me and everything was sold'
until at hs-t I found mysi:lf in a miscra
ble room. My husband lay drunk in
the corner, and my child, tbat was lyin
on my knee, was restless; I sang, ''The
light of other days has t'adod," and wet
my handkerchief through with tears.
My husband," said she to my wife, 'met
yours, lie spoke a few words uud gave
a grasp of the bind, and now, for six
years, my husband has been to me all
that a husband can be to a wife, and we
are gathering our household goods to
gether ugaiu. I have brought your bus
baud the very handkerchief I wet thro'
that night with my taars, and I want
him, when he is speaking, to remember
that he has wiped awav those tears from
me, I trust in God, forever." These are
the trophies that male men glad. J.
