THE BLOOD OF PLANTS.
Plants like animals depend for sub-
sistence and growth upon external
matter. Animals, having the power
of locomoiton, can go to their food.
Not so with plants; the food must come
to them, Animals are posessed of a
mouth for the comminution of food
and a stomach to digest it. Plants on
the contrary, have neither, and their
food is taken entirely unmodified by
the performance on their part of the
operations of mastication or digestion.
We say food is taken, for food cannot
properly be said to be taken until it has
passed into the circulatory system.
Stop up the vessels that convey the di-
gested food of an animal into the blood
and the animal would die of hunger
though the stomach were crammed.
The mouth is a mill which grinds; the
stomach and other organs of digestion
form a chemical labratory which dis-
solves and converts all food into a flu-
id capable of becoming blood by the
absorption of oxygen. It gets its sup-
ply of oxygen from the lungs during its
first arterial trip, and the blood thus
formed is drawn upon by tissues to sup-
ply waste.
Plants are nourished also directly
from their sap which we have by anal-
ogy called their blood; and though
they have no mouths or stomachs to
digest their food they can no more take
undigested food into their circulation
than can animals. The food must be
comminuted and dissolved before it can
become a constituent of plant food. As
an illustration of this fact let us expe-
riment with a plant requiring, to form
its tissues, silica, lime, magnesia, phos-
phoric acid, carbon, etc- Take the
most thrifty specimen you can find, and
place about its roots lumps of limestone,
flints, soapstone, gypsum, charcoal and
potash. Of course you will not be sur-
prised to see it droop and die in a short
time. But subject now these same sub-
stances to the action of heat and cold
until the earthy matters are pulverized,
mix them mechanically, pour upon
them the fluid that is to plants what the
gastrie juice is to animals; and tf the
proper proportions are observed your
plant will shoot at once into a vigor-
ous growth.
Nature provides for all this. She
heats and freezes and grinds rocks in-
to powder, enriches the mass by drop-
pings of animals; pours water over
beds of mineral salts and leaches it
through the soil thus manufactered.
The substances are now soluble and the
plant sucks in the nutritious fluid pre-
pared for it through its roots directly
into its blood. This blood must, how-
ever, be aeratad, that is, it must come
in contact with the air. This is accom-
plished by the leaves of the plant
which inhale and exhale, as do the
lungs of an animal, only there is no
mechanical action required to bring
the air in contact with the plant's lungs
as they are situated~upon the outside,
their work being supplemented by the
twigs and roets which also have an ab-
sorbent power and help to supply the
plant with the necessary oxygen. A
large part of the carbon which consti
tutes the great bulk ofthe solid portions
of plants is alse obtained throuh the
leaves in the form of carbonic acid,
which is a chemical compound of six
parts by weight of carbon with sixteen
of oxygen.
Now let us look a little into the man-
ner in which circulation takes place in
plants. Cuta piece of grapevine as thick
as your thumb straight acrossthe grain,
Do the same with a piece of hickory,
and compare the two sections, You
will perceive a striking difference in
the internal structure of the two woods.
The hickory is made up of concentric
rings of woody fibre, the grapevine is
full of small holes scattered all over
the surface of the section. There are
no signs of growth by successive layers
in the vine section. - The hickory has
a thick bark, the grape has none, if we
except a thin cuticle scarcely thicker
than paper. The difference in the two
sections are characteristic of the two
great divisions of plants—Exogens,
those which grow by successive layers
upon the outside, like the hickory; and
Endogens, those which grow through-
out their entire structure, like the
grapevine. If we examine more close-
ly the section of the hickory we can
see that between each grain is a layer
of spongy tissue. The minute holes
seen in either the hickory or the vine,
are the severed veins of the plant
through which the blood flows. They
cannot be perhaps called arteries, for
as a plant has no organ correspoond-
ing to the heart of an animal, no di-
vision can be made of these vessels in-
to arterial and veinous systems, as in
the cireulatory system of animals.
Let us trace the course of the circu-
lation of the sap through these vessels.
If we cut off the stem of a young tree
close to the rootand place it in a solu-
tion of certain dyes inocuous to the
plant, the coloring matter will pass in-
to its circulation. After a little while
we shall find it has ascended to a con-
siderable hight; a little while longer
and it can be detected in the leaves.
The motion most obvious, then, is an
ascending one, but this motion could
not continue unless there was either a
return flow somewhere, or an outlet for
the ascended sap. There are both. The
leaves reduce the volume of the sap
greatly by evaporation of the aqueous
portions, und the modified remainder
returns through the bark to the roots of
the plant, and there receiving an ac-
cession of newly absorbed food, travels
over the same rout again; supplying in
its entire passage the material of growth
to the plant.
The heart is a force pump which, in
the animal economy, gives the primary |
and controlling impulse to the blood.
Plants being destitute of a heart, the
force which gives impulse to their blood
is am interesting subject of inquiry.
The law of capillary attraction has
been supposed to account for it, but it
is not sufficient to account for all the
phenomena of sap circulation. It is
probable that another law of attrac-
tion by which membranes force fluids
to pass through them with great force,
comes into play here. We refer to!
what the learned call exosmose and. en-
dosmose, for want of any simpler terms.
If a piece of bladder be tied tightly
over the mouth of an empty bottle,
and the whole immersed in a proper
fluid, the fluid will pass through the
bladder with such force us finally to
burst the bladder from the internal
pressure thus generaied. The fluid
passes through the bladder by virtue
of a peculiar force not yet thoroughly
understood, to which we have just re-
ferred. If the bottle were filled with
the same fluid, the bladder tied over
it, and then Jaid on its side so that
the fluid should come in contact with
the membrane, the fluid would be
passed out through it, leaving a partial
vacuum in the bottle. The evidence
of the vacuum would be the depres
sion of the bladder by the external
pressure of the atmosphere, which, if
the membrane were not too strong,
would burst it inwards. The terms
endosmose and ezosmose are merely
relative, and express the opposite di-
rections in which this force acts. The
same force has much to do with the
circulation of the blood in animals, as
well as plants.
The power exerted by this force is
very great, and the circulation, espe-
cially in vines having stems at the
root and very. large tops loaded with
dense foliage, is very rapid. We once
experimented with a flowering vine in
our garden, which running up over an
outbuilding must have covered with
dense foliage a space of at least one
hundred square feet. The main stem
near the root was not more than three
eights of an inch in diameter. When
this plant was drooping for water, wa-
tering it at the root would revive it in
twenty seconds. In that short space
the water was absorbed by the roots
into the circulation, and carried to
the remotest twigs and leaves as was
shown by their changing from a droo-
ping to an erect position.
We have thus shown that the meth-
od by which plants are nourished is
strikingly similar to the way in which
plants are supplied with nutriment.
A proper application of the analogies
we have pointed out, and their rela-
tion to the growth of seeds or fruit, is
the basis of all intelligent horticulture

“That Tarnsl Stuff”
To hear Gough tell the “drugger”
story is worth a quarter at any time.
The story is a capital one, but it takes
the man to tell it. This he does in
some such werds as these :
A long’ lean gaunt Yankee entered |
a drug store and asked :
“Be you the drugger ?”
“Well, Is’pose so; I sell drugs.”
“Waal, hev you got any uv this "ere
scentin stuff’ as the gals put on their
handkerchiefs?”
“0 yes.”
“Waal, Sal's gwine to be married,
and she gin me a ninepence and told
me to invest the hull amount in scentin’
stuff so’s to make her sweet, if I could
find some to suit ; so if you've a mind
I'll just smell round.”
The Yankee smelled around with-
out being suited untill the druggist
got tired of him, and taking down a
bottle of hartshorn said :
“I’ve got a scentinstuff that will suit
you. A single drop on your handker-
chief will stay for weeks, and you can’t
wash it out ; but to get the strength of
it you must take a big smell.
“Is that so, mister? Waal just hold
on a minute, till I get my breath, and
when I say neow, you put it under my
smellers.”
The hartshorn of course knocked the
Yankee down, as liquor has done many
a man’ Do you suppose he got up and
smelt again, as the drunkard does?
Not he; but rolling up his sleeves and
doubling up his fist he said :
“You made me smell that tarnel,
everlastin stuff, mister, and neow I'll
make you smell fire and brimstone.”

a ——
Trial of Jefferson Davis for Trea.
son—Argument on the Motion
to Quash the Indictment— Disa.
greement of the Court.
Ricamonp, December 4.—In the
United States Circuit Court, Chief Jus-
tice Chase presiding on the motion to
quash the proseedings against Jefferson
Davis. R. H. Dana, for the govern-
ment, opened this morning. He pro.
ceeded to show that the fourteenth
amendment was not a penal statute,
but was merely a change in the politi-
cal system adopted to secure trust-
worthiness in office and preserve pa-
rity in the administration of the goy-
ernmsnt. It was a measure of precau-
tion, to secure the country against fil
ling offices with persons who once be-
fore filled them and broke their oaths.
[fit had been intended to infliet punish-
ment it would have been the utmost
folly of legislation, seeing that while it
would, viewed as the defendant's coun-
sel viewed it, lighten the punishment of
the leaders, who had held office and
broken their oaths, it would leave the
people, who never held office, exposed
to penalties of death and imprisonment
as pronounced by the Constitution be-
fore the adoption of the amendment.
[t was an expression only of the fitne
of persons who engaged in the rebel-
lion, after breaking their oaths, to
hold office again. It was not intended
as alleged by the defenses, to act as an
amnesty, nor was there a eingle word
uttered in the Congress that framed,
nor the Legislatures that adopted it,
to warrant such a construction. So
far from that, it was intended as a test
by which those men may be reached
and guarded against who had proved
unfaithful to their pledges to the gov-
ernment. It could not he plead in
the case of conviction for treason, see-
ing that it applied to those only who
had taken often the oath of office and
engaged in insurrection and rebellion
against the government. Now, trea-
son is something more than engaging
in insurrection and rebellion. It is
levying war against the government,
and of this the defendant stands
charged. It would be strange, in-
deed, if Jefferson Davis could, as he
might, under this plea, come to the
bar and acknowledged that he was
guilty.of treason, deny his liability to
be punished because of the 14th Arn-
endment.
Mr. O. Conner followed Mr. Dana.
He showed from the very nsture of
the great civil war that it was impossi-
ble to follow itup by trial for treason
conducted with the fairness required
by law. How utterly repugnant to the
world’s idea of humanity itis that af-
ter being recognized during the war as
in all respects equal and as honorable
men, the leaders ofthe conquered forces
should be searched out in peace to be
hung as traitors. The government and
the people had never intended to do
this, and it was for this reason that the
fourteenth amendmet had been adopted
It was a constitutional provision, and
executed itself, and those who fell un-
der it wire now suffering the punish-
ment. He askad the Court te give the
construction to the Fourteenth Article
that the American people intended it
should bear, and to accept the great and
beneficent act of mercy in the constraz-
tion which they had put upon it and
which tends to advance all good men
who are believers in universal suffrage.
The Court adjourned until to-morrow.
After the adjournment of the U. S.
Circuit Court to-night, the counsel
were recalled, when Chief Justica
Chase announced that the Court was
divided, he, Chase, being in favor of
quashing the indictment, and District
Judge Underwood opposing it. This
division of the Court was certified to
the Supreme Court of the United
States.
