Iiut the truth is that Greenland, though scarcely an eligible place ot residence, ha long been known to lie not merely a great field i'r hunt ing and lishinj, but also a locality by no means unsuited to the miner, were it not i'or its unhuspitable cli mate and the extreme dilliculty o! approaching the eastern coast, or at laasl tlie most southerly part of it. Jutting, as the country does, far out into the Atlantic (Cape Farewell is in the same latitude as the centre of the Shetland group i, and curving, as it does at the same time toward the east, it catches the ice drift lrom the polar seas, and retains it all along its southern coast. It therefore rep resents the spe-tacle, singular in the Northern Hemisphere, tf ice-bound chores to the south and free water northward. In addition to these drawbacks, it may be doubted wheth er even the pressure of population iu civilized countries will son induce many Europeans to colonize Green land. And without European colo nization the development of such i i. ! mineral wealth as it mar possess is impossible. Either the climate of the regions, as is certainly the case with Iceland, has positively grown worse during historic memory, or the human frame has become less enduring, or which is more proba ble the habits of advancing civili zation have made the human will less tolerant except for purposes ot sport or scientific investigation, of the sordid discomforts of an Arctic winter. We say Arctic for conven ience sake, though in lad Greenland stretches for hundreds of miles south of the Arctic circle. We should be the last to deny the value of Arctic exploration, both as what may be called national gymnastics and as enlaruing the sphere of knowledge; but it may be doubted whether any practical result of marketable value is likely to come of it now. Duron Nordeskold's own most famous achievement that voyage of the Vega which has really opened up a prospect of trade on the north Asiat ic coast may seem to be an excep tion to this, liut the value of this discovery depends upon the exist ence of three great river highways from the Siberian Sea, and if the often talked-of trans Siberian rail way, which would tap and connect these highways at their head instead of at their foot, tie ever carried out, it may be questianed whether there would then be any temptation to ahips to follow in the track of the Vega. The Mackenzie in America aud the Petchora in Europe by no means supply the place of the three Siberian rivers, and such a windfall ps the fossil ivory of New Siberia, though it might recur, can not be counted upon. Greenland, indeed, has the advantage over these distant and still more inhospitable coasts, that when its shores are once cleared the distance to the great markets of the Atlantic seaboard is trilling and the way perfectly open. It has some trade as it is, and it may probably !:ave more, though both geographic ai ana political considerations are rather against any development. London A m a, When fcbonld a Cow tro Dry. There is such a thing as burning a candle at both ends. One may easily do this in the dairy, and while the good, easy man thinks he is making a good deal of light at the same cost, suddenly his candle may go out This kind of thing may go on when one miiks the cow up to the time of calving or near it, and even encourages it by feeding for that end.

Appetite and The sick. That we may fairly discuss th matter of food for tbe ick, it is well i to understand that a normal appe tite accurately represents the true want of tae iytem, a want based on tb amount of watte, produced by exercise, both physical and mental. This demand is "for the repair of that part of the body actually de ftrved, which, to avoid an utter waetinjr away of the whale body, mut b replaced by tbe appropria tion ot the constituents of th blood, the essence of the food taken. If this demand is increased by uuuu al exercise, simply because the tis sues of the body art correspondingly wasted, worn out, destroyed, it i reasonable to infer that diminished exercise, as in "ickness, will produce a corresponding diminution of this appetite. If true, also, that the heat of the summer similarly reduces ! the appetite, a large per cent of our food is for the production of the J heat of the body, it is reasonable to (suppose that the heat, attending j acute forms of disease, will to the same extent reduce the appetite. In laecordance with these principles, the I appetite is entirely wanting in these j acute forms, as in fevers of the sick. thirst for watr being instituted. Many of this class absolutely need no 'food, are better t fast for a weak or j more, if fleshy at the time of the at tack, as demonstrated by the ab ! tence of a desire for food. It is wll here to remark that the appetite is far more reliable in sick ness than in health, a merc'ful ar rangement indeed, that all of the powers may unite in the great work of renovating the body. This is proved by the fact that all habiu like the habits of tobacco, whisky and ttpium, disappear in critical cases of disease, when every possible effort is in demand for the restora tion of health. Again, in such sick ness, the digestive powers un as much debilitated a any of the body, are just a incapable of doing their usual work as the body, as a whole, is, from which fact we may ses that rest for the vlmle body is demand ed. If tiiere is reat, therefore.it is plain that then will be but little waste, but little wearing out of the tissues, but little occasion for re pairs, but littl need for an appetite. Hence, this is indeed a merciful ar rangement Dut, there is a thirst substantial, one not easily coLtrolled. This is also a merciful arrangement. The water, the drink in special de mand, tends to cool, reducing the symptoms, thus promoting comfort. I5ut best of all, while the disease is oftener than otherwise produced by an undue retention of the waste and worn out particles of this ever decay in body, this water so reduces this putrescent mass f accumulated cor ruption, in consequence of the clos ing of the pores . a cold t that tiie system is ranidly puniied, by vari ous excretive methods. As soon, therefore, as food is needed, ordina rily, the appetite will indicate that need. The first food to be given, as the appetite returns, should be of the simplest charact'-r. As the digestive powers are very weak, the food must Le very easy of digestion, or it will prove a curse. Only liquids should be given at first, such extracts as the juices of fruit, bread, tea the abso lutely clear juices of food, that no digestion need be required, no labor r .t. - u .i iL. .1 oi nits ffiuniaeu, more man in ine ao sorptiwn of water, which, previously, in the acute stage, has done eo much good. After a few days, the very simplest form of food, a single arti cle at once, sheuld be given, as fruits, rice, baked potato, stale bread and the like. Golden lluk. Shade; trees. All wili admit that shade trees lining both sides of the street afford the mot inviting attractions to a town. The bare, black sides of houses and the burning sidewalks of a shadeless street have few charms tin a hot summer day. Our town is not overcrowded with these beau tiful natural ornaments, yet it has a goodly number of them lending at traction and pleasure to the pedes triu and sight seer. The popular opinion seems to pre vail thit every year or so these handsome ornaments must suffer a mutilation by the saw and pruning knife with the helief that nature has false notions of beauty and symme try. A more fal-e and erroneous notion could hardly gain currency. Every time that art attempts to improve on nature it makes a sorry failure ot it. Io illustrate, lot the observer now lake a look over our town and compare the shrt, ungain ly stuns sticking out frm the bod ies of mutilated or trimmed trees with the nicely rounded forms and symmetrical branches v;f those per mitted to intertwine their tendrils according to nature's method T 1. i iree culture is niucn more a fci ence than people ordinarily imagine, requiring me most exact observance of conditions and properties as sen sitive and delicate as the human anatomy.

The day after the repulse of the fifteenth Corps at Keneaaw Moun tain, the fortieth and Fifty-eventu Indiana, Ninety-seventh and Twenty sixth Ohio, Twenty-eighth Ken tucky, and One hundreth Illinois regiments, each numbering about SUU men, were selected to assault a salient on a ridge 3U0 yards in their froti. The lines were formed iu regimental divisions and while the front was only the width of two companies the depth wa9 thirty lines f men iu open order. It was in fact a giant w edge of flesh and blood and steel which was to drive itself through the Confederate lines. As the men stood in line their ollicers explained to them in low and earnest tones what w;as p!annd and what was honed lor. It was a forlorn hope indeed. Every man must have realized that there would be a terrible loes of life even before the salient was reached, but each one Feemed to nerve himself for what was to com. During the twenty minutes interval between forming and the order to advance there was almost dead silence iu the ranks. The men leaned upon their muskets and peered through the forest in their front which hid the Confederate position, and the sup ports on the flanks moved up and into position, as if fearing that their footsteps would disturl) the dead of the day before. It was not positively known to the Federals that the salient was defended by cannon. The hope that it was not cue the men more pirits, as the Jay of the ground j forest, thicket at.d ridge furnished fair slit Iter from musketry fire. Soon after N o'clock a single low spoken order brought every man to a trout face. The moment had come. As the column had been formed under cover it was hoped to take the defenders of the salient by surprise. The lines were dressed, and in a moment were moving through the woods. From .the val ley at the base of Kenesaw, Lost or Pine mountains to their crests there is scarcely a level spot. The sides are covered with fureats and thieket, and the ground is almost a succes sion ot rocky terraces. Over this dillicult ground the great blue wedge forced its way at a rapid pace, but no eheer was heard no shouts w ere given. ' Crack ! crack ! crack !" It was the alarm from the Confed erate skirmishers, who have crept down almost to the base of the mountain. The' are posted behind great rocks and bidden bt-hind ledg es. They cannot retreat ; they niusi surrender or fight it out. They choose the latter course. Nine out ef every ten held their position un til the point of the blue wedge reach es them and brings savage death with it, All along the sides of the grim mountain the skirmishes bar the way seeking to deti.in the wedge and alarm the defenders of the salient Here aud there a Federal throws up his Lands and falls back, but the column makes nu halt. Up, r.p, up. and now an officer in front waves his sword as the fclopes of the para pet come into sight. Here the cov er suddenly ends. From the bushes to the salient, a distance of 20J feet the ground has been swept bare of trees aud bushes, and rocks have been rolled aside. At the foot of the parapet is a paliside-outside of that an abattis. Behind the works are a thouand muskets a thousand Confederates with fingers on triggers. At regular intervals along this line OoOfeet front are six field pieces, each one loaded with grape ami canister. The men within are wait ing. Not an order is givei nor a head appears in sight until the first line of blue is out of cover. Nw, as if one finger had pressed the thousand triggers, a great sheet of tlanie leaps forth and scorches and blisters and shrivels the advance. The second line crowds up over the dead and dying the tnird and fourth cheer. Now, with a crash as if a volcano was breaking the crest tif the mountain, the six guns belch their contents into that mass of men sixty deep. Th effect was horrible. What were men a moment ago, are now bloody shreds blown against the rocks and scattered afar over the ground. Some of the gory fragments fill upon the lines yet half way up the slope. The advance halts in confusion the rear lines crowd up. Tin-re is another bloody feast ready as soon as the cannon cm be charged. Then came the order to break lines ami divide to the right and left to get out of range of the artillery. The men rush forward to the" abattis some lie flat down others lake cover behind rocks. For fifteen minutes heroic courage holds them before the salient. The Confeder- ! ates have them attheir mercy Mtn take deliberate aim and send a bul let through the head of the living targets. When the burial party comes to do its work it will find that seven out of ten Federals lying before that abattia has been killed stone dead by a single bullet. The fire of musketry might have cheered the assault, but aided by ar- 'tillery the check became a butchery. Grane and canister search out spots secured from bullets, and in the very rear ranks, men who did not even catch sight of the abattis were struck down bv the iron missiles No assault could have brought out I more nerve and heroism, but if was jtne nerve dashing against the rocky cliff. When the men had fallen back to their original position the roll of dead and wounded was shock to those wh escaped. No one had blundered Johnston's lines were there and thev must be carneu uy assault Mierman was looking for a weak spot to drive a wedge into. That salient was one of the strongest on the Confederate line. . : . j i i . . Messrs.

Tbe counting of the ring added by exogenous trees every year to their circumference can only, without risk of great error, be applied to tret s which are hollow and decayed. Trees, moreover, often develop them selves so uneqnally from their centre that, as in the case of a specimen in the museum at Kew, there may be about two hundred and fifty rings on one side to fifty rings on one side to fifty on the other. Perhaps tbe largest number of rings that has ever been counted was iu theca.se of an oak felled in 1S12, where they amounted to seven hundred and ten; but DeCaudolIe, wh mention this, adds that three hundred years were added to this number as prob -ably covering the remaining rings which it wrs no longer possible to count This instance may be taken to illustrate how unsatisfactory this mode of reckoning really is for all but trees of comparatirely youthful age. The external girth meaaurment is for these reasons the best we can have, being especially applicable where the da.e of a tree's introduc tion into a country or of its planting is definitely fixed, since it enables ts to argue lrom the individual speci men or from number of specimens, not with certainty, but the rate of growth of that tree as a species. Ia these measurements of trees of a cen tury or more in age, such as are gi"en abundantly in London's "Ar boretum," lies our bsst guide, though even then the growth as in subse quent ages must remain matter of conjecture. The difficulty is to re- uuce mis conjectural quality to the limits of probability ; for, given the ascertaned growth of the first centu ry, how shall we estimate thedimin ished growth of later centuries ? The bet-t way wouid seem to be to take the ascertained growth of the first centurv, and then ta make, sav, the third of it the average grow th of every century. Thus, if we were to take twelve feet as ttie ascortained growth of an oak in its first century, four feet would be its constant aver age rate, and we might conjecture that an oak of forty feet was about a thousand years old. But clearly it might be much less; for the reason fer taking the third is not so much that it is a more probable averaue than the half, as that is obviously less likely to err on the side fo excess of rapidity. Training Bloodhounds. In a letter from Huntsville, Texas, to the Houston Poet, the writer says : "And these are the bloodhounds I hear so much about?"' I remarked to my conductor. "Yes they are the famous blood houndsthat is, as much blood hounds as you will find in Texas They are simply foxhounds trained to hunt men." "Do you keep theirl shut up all the time','" "Yes; they would make it pret ty lively for the boys if they got out." "How often have you occasion to use them during the year?'' "Not more than two or three times. Convicts will not leave when they know good hounds are on hand to catch them." "Could you not dispense with the hounds and depend upon your guns ?"' "No, indeed; you cannot hold convicts with shotguns. It is fear of the hounds which keeps them quiet. Desertion is useless when recaptured is a moral certainty, as is the case when good hounds are em ployed." "Do you have difficulty in prop el ly training your hounds?" 'Oh, no: that is about the only sport there is. Here come the pup pies. We will have them a run and iet you see how it is done." A trusty was sent down the lane and over the fence through a large field, on a run for dear life. Whui he had accomplished about half a mile, or half his circuit, the puppies, three six-months-old hounds, were nosing the ground and yelping as they ran. On they kept, over fences and through stubbles and ditches, never ceasing their noise. Some times they would run over the trail when the trusty had made an abrupt turn, but soon they wuld return to the spot where they had lo-t the scent and cautiously feel their way until eertain they had the trail. when they would off again. The trusty was a long-distance runner, but the soft ground made his im promptu track heavy, and he lagged as he approached the end of his run, evidently fatigued. The dogs gained on him rapidly and were -elpiig close upon him. He was ordered to run to a tree or fence and get out of their way, so that they would have to find him by tbe scent. He first tried to climb a high gate post, but the dogs with their noses to the ground were upon him almost and forced him to take shelter in a wagon which was stand ing in the yard, where he hid him self just as the dogs came to the gate. They looked up the gate-post and smeiled around a little, then without delay followed the trail direct to the wagon and discovered their party lying panting like a tug boat, i looked at the perspiring convict, and my heart smote me for being the cause of his race, but I soon lound out that it was a great privi lege, enjoyed by but few, and giving the puppies a race was considered by them the very essence of pleasure. The convict took an old blanket in a j his hand and alighted on the ground where the dogs fought him fiercely, making vicious snrings for him. He rep i Ised them by buffeting them with the blanket, jumping away and thwarting them in any manner without hurting them. Finally one ot the dogs fastened his teeth in the convict's coarse pants, aad, holding on with unyielding tenac ty, was swung arwund, with vigor,until tired. ine aogs were men uiKen by a guard, and the convict went away highly ple.ased with his sport CURES. .
