THE EFFECT OF TREES UPON HEALTH-
The Milwaukee Wisconsin has the following
in relation to the beneficial influence exerted
upon health by trees: at is n well known
fact that trees in the streets of city absorb
through their foliage portion of noxious va
por and gases which are evolved by the rays
of the sun. The comfort which we enjoy
from their cooling shade, and the pleasure we
receive from their gay and cnlivening appear
ancc, are not their only benefits. The air is
purer and more hcalthful thereby and the
exheraton of the system, induced by breath
ing more oxygen draws our thoughts towards
the bright side of nature and things in gen.
era; thus acting as preventive against dis
ease that easily preys upon depressed spirits"

OLA German couple named Stinman are
under arrest in Philadelphia, charged with
treating, in n cruel manner, boy in their
employ, named James Wallis, aged 10 years.
1t appears that he was compelled to work all
hours without receiving anything like sufli-
cient food or clothing. In addition to this the
German and his wife would give the boy con-
trary directions, and if he obeyed either, he
was most savagely punished. He was whip
ped until he was SCARED from head to foot;
ana tho wife to surpass her husband in cruel
W. was accustomed to stick the poor boy with
the point OF a knife. The husband, when he
wished to chastiso tho boy lightly, generally
beat him with club. The inhuman couple
are to be tried for assault and battery with
intent to kill.

BRANnY IN CLIMnINe MounrA1Ns-A recon

BRANDY IN CLIMBING MoUNTAINs-A recent
writer says: at is astonishing the effect pro-
duced by spirits upon the persons of even the
strongest constitutions, when INDUCED in at
an elevation of 10000 or $4,000 feet. At
10000 feet it is perfectly dangerous to take
any quantity of raw spirits as even half
glass of brandy produces intoxication. All
hill travellers drink nothing but hot tea; for
travelling up the mountains and down valleys,
across bridges of very questionable security,
requires firm and very steady nerve, which
it is impossible for those who indulge freely
in the use of spirits to retain long in the
snowy regions"

greatest GOODNESS, and on reaching her house
in Polonia street, said to her husband with
the greatest enthusiasm-"now you have

Immediately on the attack, the family physician

CHOLERA PANIc.-The New York papers
complain that the Philadelphia merchants are
sending out circulars warning traders from
the interior not to visit New York this season
as the cholera prevails there as an epidemic.
The Journal Of Commerce also says that the
merchants of that city are receiving letters
from their customers nquiring whether it will
be safe to come there this season, whilst
others are sending on their orders in prefer
ence to making their purchases personally
OF course the New York press deny that a
visit to the city would be attended with any
danger, and aver that the epidemic is confined
entirely to newly arrived emigrants and dis
solute livers. We doubt, however, whether
these assurances will have much effect while
the weekly bill of mortality ranges between
one thousand and twelve hundred deaths out
of a population of little over half million.

THE BLUE RIDGE RAIL RoAD.-The Ameri-
can Rail Road Journal of the 5th instant,
says:
"The Blue Ridge Rail Road is the work by
which the city of Charleston and the State of
South Carolina propose to secure to them
selves portion of the trade of the Mississip-
pi basin. In building this road they are only
acting in obedience to an idea which has led
every city of any considerable importance,
and any one that proposed commercial great
ness as its future, to construct or undertake
works of similar character and for similar
objects. The valley of the Mississippi is
looked upon as the seat where is to be the
greatest development of wealth, population,
and trade on this continent, and the posses
sion of the trade as the great source of wealth
and prosperity of eastern cities Between
these and the great valley, the Allegheny
range is interposed, which, without artificial
avenues, is sufficient obstacle to force this
trade to take its natural outlets, the Missis-
sippi and st. Lawrence rivers. Wherever this
great barrier has been scaled by artificial
works, results far exceeding expectation have
been realized. This trade can never be mo-
nopolised by one city. Each can command II
considerable portion of that lying upon its
own parallel; so that although some may Sc
cure more than others, from the superior at
fractions they possess, all are certain Of that
degree of success which justiies their under
takings. Charleston is now the only Atlantic
city with the exception of Richmond) that
does not possess its appropriate and peculiar
railway, extending TO the Mississippi basin.
This want she now proposes to supply by the
construction of the above road"
