Let me tell, In the briefet manner possible how Il

OF your readers at least. Tire trees are felIed und
tbsi trunks cut into pieces three feet ten insses
long, which are maued up and put in square peos
to dry or season. Five Of these pens, sevea feet

best data to be had there are more than hundred
vessels engaged in this trade il James river slcse,

The zine is Of rapid growth. Pine wood has beeA
cut acd shipped to tie North which was scarcely
twenty old. SO, If no substitute for wood b.
found 1t will be fair to infer that this trade will b
carried on for many years to come. The vessels
generally return in ballast, but sometimes they
bling on argo of hay, to feed the teams esgagoA
in hauling the wood. Some will sheer At this bat
