TRAVEL TO EURoPE.-The Great Western, to sail
to-day, has about fifty passengers engaged, and that
will be the least number that she will carry
this trip. When we take into consideration the fact
that the splendid of our packets sail this month,
and at the rate of one a week, the Western has more
than her share of ocean travellers seeking airs
abroad We cannot resist mentioning that the Gale
donia, which lett Boston on Tuesday, had but thirty
eight in her cabins for Liverpool Our amiable little
neghbor city, which happens to be the depot of the
Mail Line, will probably, however, get up subscrp
ton TO fill up one Of their steamers on the same
principle that governed her in giving three or four
thousand dollars have passage, miles long,
through the ice in the winter of 1874 to get the
Britannia to on her regular day. There is, how
ever, 10 say the least good share of enterprise in
Boston. We are very glad that the harbor Of New
York is never frozen up, for three four thousand
dollars pllotage for each shipwould be an enormous
sum for US topay.

In a Tract recently published by the Mar
lyland Tract Society, the following passage
occurs. Ii contains truth that will be respon-
ded to by every one:
Zone of the grossest neglects of youth, pro-
ducing incalculable mischief and ruin, is in
the improperspending of evenings. Darkness
was created for quiet; home is the place of
quiet. Darkness is temptation TO misconduct;
suffering the young TO be out when the light
of the day does not restrain them from mis-
conduct is training them to il. We have al
ready an abundant harvest of this seeding.-
Riots, mobs, crimes, giving fearful forebod-
ings, are the result of youth becoming fit
agents of outrage BY running uncared foron
evenings. What we see in these respects is
deplorable enough; but what is this compar-
ed with what we do not see-multitudes ma
king themselves miserable and noxious in this
world, and what in that 10 come?
"Parents should look at the truth that eve
ming pleasures aud r~ecreatio MS are often dear
ly purchased; the price, their own impaired
comfort, and the blighted prospects of their
offspring. 1t must be obvious that in this
matter there can be no prescribed rule. There
can be no interdicto of all evening recreations
and employments; yet here is an evil not on
y destructive 10 youth, but planting thorns
in many paths, and covering many lives with
desolation. The reformation demanded must
proceed from judgement and c~oncience, and
for this purpose judgement and concience-
must be enlightened. Heads of families
must learn that the place on earth best adap-
ted TO be a blessing is home; and by exam
pie and wholesome restraint they must teach
this truth to all under them. Especially
should home during Sabbath hours be conse-
Grated. Sabbath mornings and evenings are
blessed indeed when they gather the family
into the circle of converse and instruction !;
and parents and children masters and appren-
tees, and servants, and in the presence and
by the grace of God who has made them and
placed them in their respective stations, raise
themselves to the exalted level of the truth
that they are invested with capacity and OBJ
lIigation in their respective conditions, as
signed them by an all-wise Providence, TO
help each other onward 10 honor. glory, and
Immortality; eternal life. Souls perish in
everlasting death; they perish through neg
llect. Who would stand at the judgemnt of
the Great Day under the imputation of that
neglect! Do you say not ~ Then think Of
these things"

HOW THEY GET TAR AND TUaPEN-
TINE

The principal PURSUITS OF the inhabitants
in many places near the sea coast Of South.
Lem States IS thatefEeHiae4--9@aaaa
IS made from the pines which abound almost
10 the exclusion of every other species of
forest trees. Many persons have no other
means off livelihood than this employment.
especially those ofthe poorer classes. As
soon as the sap begins to run in the sea-
son, a notch is made near the root of the
trees TO catch the turpentine. Thisi is called
boxing the tree. Then if is dipped out,
generally with a simple gourd, into buckets
which are emptied into barrels on the spot.
These are ready for market as soon as they
are filled.
Another small portion of the tree is tEen
pared offand the sap again descends freely
into these receptacles. Under this opera
ton a pine will usually live for six or seven
years, and is used IN this manner until it is
deprived Of its bark and a small portion of
its trunk, 10 the height of ten or fifteen feet.
One man, it is calculated, will attend 10
1000 boxes in a season, and will collect
from 100 TO I39 barrels of turpentine in a
gear. The old trees when they can yield
no more iurpentine, are cut up into small
pieces, and then piled in heaps TO make tar
which is only turpentine heated and smoked.
The whole is then covered carefully with
dirt, and a smothering fire is keptup beneath.
As the wood slowly burns out the tar runs
from beneath into the cutters prepared for
its reception,
While burning the kiln is carefully watched
day and night. One hundred barrels Of tar
are usually made at one burning. When the
kiln is burned out, the charcoal still remains
from the wood, and becomes also an article
of use and'value. How wisely are the proVis-
ions of Providence adapted TO the use of
man! Thus pine, growing as it does on the
poorest of lands, affords support to thousands
of persons. How useful is the treei 1t pro-
duces the turpentine and when worn out for
this purpose, tar and coal are obtained from
it; from the wood are made, also, the barrels
to convey the tar and turpentine 10 market.
The whole process is carried on in the very
forests where nature has planted this beauti-
ful tree.
The road in these regions often runs Tor
miles through these pine woods; and | know
of no sight more sigular than for the eye TO
rest upon these trees, thus rising up on every
hand, naked and stripped for many feet from
the ground. In their resemblance, the I'M
agination pictures many things. | have of
ten beheld them silent and majestic, and
thought they resembled an immense army
drawn out in columns and at rest. AT night,
especially by clear moonlight, the scenes be-
comes impressive. There they stand, naked
and white, and solemn, like the tombstones
Of some vast graveyard, impressing the
mind with serious and profitable reflections.
