The India Rubber Tree.

The tree (Siphilla Elastical is quite
peculiar in its appearance, and sometimes
reaches the height of so and even 100
feet. The trunk is perfectly round. rather
smooth, and protected by bark OF a
light color. The leaves grew in clusters
of three together, are thin, and of an osate
form, AID are from 10 to Ia inches long
The center leaf of the cluster is always the
longest. This remarkable tree bears a
curious fruit, of the size of peach, which,
although not very palatable, is eagerly
sought after by different animals-it is
separated into three lobes, which contain
each a small nut. The trees are tapped
in the same manner thai New Englanders
tap maple trees. The trunk having been
perforated, yellowish liquid, resembling
cream, flows out, which is caught in small
clay cups, fastened to the tree. When
these become full, their contents are emp
tied into large earthen jars, in which the
liquid is kept until desired for use. The
operation of making shoes is as simple as
it is interesting. Imagine yourself in one
of the seringa groves Of Brazil. Around
you are number of good-!ooking natives,
of low stature and olive complexions.--
All are variously engaged. One is stir
ring with long WOO len stick the contents
of cauldron, placed over pile of blazing
embers. This is the liquid as it was taken
from the rubber tree. Into this wooden
last, covered with clay, and having o
handle, is plunged. A coating Of the
liquid remains. You will perceive that
another native then takes the last, and
holds it in the smoke arising from the
ignition of q species of palm fruit, for the
purpose of causing the glutinous substance
to assume a dark color. The "last" is
then plunged again into the cauldron, and
the process is repeated, Us in dipping cam
dies, until the coating is of the required
thickness. You will, moreover, notice Il
number of Indian girls engaged in making
various impressions, such as flowers, &c,
upon the soft surface OF the rubber, by
means of their thumb nails, which are
especially pared and cultivated fer this
purpose. After this final operation, the
shoes are placed in the sun to harden, and
large numbers Of them may be seen laid
cut on mats in exposed situations. The
aboriginal name Of the rubber is cahuchu,
from which the formidable word caca.tciouc
is derived.
