BEAUTY OF TREEs.-A tree, undoubtedly, is one of the most beautiful objects of nature. Airy and delicate in its youth, luxuriant and majestic in its prime, venerable and picturesque in it's old age, it constitutes, in its various forms, sizes, and developments, the greatest charm and beauty of the earth in all countries. The most varied outline of surface, the finest combination of picturesque materials, would be comparatively tame and spiritless without the inimitable accompaniment of foliage Let those who have passed their whole time in richly wooded country-whose daily visions are deep leafy glens, forest-clad hills, and plains luxur- ousy shaded-transport themselves for a mo- lnent to the desert, where but few stunted bushes raise their heads above the earth, or those wild steppes, where the eye wanders in vain for some "leafy garniturc'- the sln strikes down with parching heat, or the wind sweeps over with unbrokenfu ury-and they may, perhaps. estimate by the contrast their beauty and value.
