Tomb of washington's Mother.

\ correspondent of the Lowell Courier wri-
ing from Virginia, says that while in Fredricks-
burg, which was for some time the residence of
Washington while young man, and where lac
vas made Mason, he had the curiosity to ex-
omiRe the house in which Washington lived. 1t
Is capacous brick edifce, in most excellent
repair, and though untenanted now, bids fair,
with proper oversight, to last sound for many
years. The ceilings and walls are adorned with
elaborate stucco work, the starways wide and
the halls very commodious BNk Of the louse
is the tomb Of Washington.s mother, which is in
sadly neglected and dilapidated condition
For some reason or other, it has never been fin
ished, part Of the marble lying in rough
state not ten feet from the foundation on which
II should rest, and thus in the very birth State
Of the immortal Washington, constant dishonor
and disrespect are shown the sacred ashes of his
mother, Her tomb is unfinished to this day.

Oregon rimber--hoyv they cut it.


The trees in Oregon have long been subject Of
remark on account of their immense size. \
letter from Oregon mentions the fact that the
keel Of the steamer Lot Whitcomb, 100 feet ong
is made from the length Of q tree. One tree on
the claim Of Judge Strong, Cathlemet, drawing
for which was recently made for London pic
toral newspaper, stood ! 0 feet in diameter at
the bottom, and $50 feet high. But trees are
found that measure 300 feet as they lay exten-
ded the ground, and neaT the coast 200 in
length of saw-logs have been taken from tree
yn more than one occasion. Fur and spruce
run up, spire-lile, furthest among the clouds,
never throwing out any large lateral branches
The manner Of telling spruce timber is some
what peculiar. With a large auger, hole Is
bored through the green standing tree, or two
holes so bored meet within the white or sap part
Of the wood. Then a cole of fire is put into the
hole. The Ckaught Of air sets ii 70 burning, and
in from six to twelve hours, according to the
si2e Of the tree, it falls, with little or ya4oTe
waste of wood, than would be used by an axe
man. 1t IS then buttcd and cut up with a saw.
Thus fifteen minutes with mn auger does the
work ola half or two-thirds of day with an axe.
