vegetables, fruits greenhouse, etc., IS
twenty-five acres There are thirty
green houses, each from fifty to seventy
Eve feet long. We went into three or
four containing nothing but pine apples,
ripe; others contained nothing but
melons and oucumbers. One peach tree
on the glass measures ffty-Ouo feet in
height, and bears one thousand peach
es Itis the largest in the world The
grape houses, FIVE or six in ALL are
hundred feet.long, and such grapes.--
We saw pine apples weighing ten or
fifteen pounds each. One green. house
had only eggs another only mush-
rooms. But what shall be said Of the
great conservatory; filed with every
variety Of tropical plants2 1t is one Of
the wonders Of the world. IT covers
an acre Of ground, is one hundred feet
| high, of oval shape, and cost $500, O,OOO.-
1t is heated by steam and hot water
pipes, which, in all are six miles in
length. The apparatus consumes six
hundred tons Of coal in year. We
saw banana trees twenty feet high, with
clusters Of fruit, sugar cane, coffee trees,
bamboo, and in short, every tropical
plant that can be named Several Of
the palm trees are from fifty to sixty feet
high. The smoke Of the immense fire
underneath is carried in pipes under
ground to an outlet in the woods. The
coal is brought in a tunnel six hundred
yards under ground. One fountain
throws a jet Of water to the height Of
two hundred and seventy feet.

More Gold and Rich Diggings.

The Kansas City journal Of Com
merce of Wednesday, the goth ult.,
says
Mr.. John Horton arrived in this city
yesterday, having left Fort Laramie on
the Sd inst. He brings most important
and interesting news from tho gold
mines of the Arkansas, Pixies Peak and
Cherry Creek,
All the Indian traders about the Fort
and in the vicinity of Deer Creek, were
removing their goods to the mines. He
saw at the Fort a Mr.. Jackson, who had
several hundred dollars worth of the
dust. The greatest excitement existed
at Fort Laramie.
The miners were poorly provided with
breadstuds, not having over two months
supplies on hand. They were also en-.
tirely destitute of mining tools. Picks
and shovels were worth their weight in
gold-in fact they could not be had al
any price. There was not a rocker ia
the mines, and no sheet iron with which
to make riddles.
Mr.. Benjamin Clemmore is now com.
ing in, and will be here in eight or ten
days, bringing some Eve hundred dol
lars of the gold, which he obtained in
about two weeks without any tools.
There are now about $50 men in tho
mines, most of whom are engaged in

How TO PRoDUcE LARGE FRUIT -
A correspondent Of the "Gardcner's
Gazette" says, by very simple and easy
process, fruits of many kinds may be
raised about one-third larger than is
usually the case, and Of greatly improv-
ed quality The secret consists in sup
porting the fruits so that they shall not
be allowed to hang their whole weight
upon the stalk, or twist about in the
wind The Gazette states that when fruit
is allowed TO hang naturally upon the
stalk the increasing weight strains the
stem or twig, and thus lessons The guam
tity Of nutritiousfood Aowiugt0 the fruit,
which may be supported either by tying
it to a branch with a piece Of string, or
by enclosing it in a small net. Flow
ers, such as dahlias or peonies, may also
be rendered much larger by the Qdop-
ton Of this system.

From the Albany Evening Journal.
Our Navy - Ships Rotting on the
Cfoalye.

Our Navy - Ships Rotting on the
Stocks.
When the Secretary of the Navy wis
tied the Yard al Brooklyn this week,
he went aboard the Frigate Sabine, and
was received with the usual honors. A
newspaper report says that the Secretary
was "umused" to hear the history Of the
Sabine, which, though one Of tue oldest
vessels in the Navy, has never been to
sea yeti She was put on the stocks in
1919 and took over thirty years to be fit
for launching, and nine more to get
ready for sea!
Nor is this a solitary case. The Ala
bama Seventy -Four, was on the stocks at
Portsmouth twenty years ago, and she
is there still. The New Orleans, un6u.
ished and unroofed in, has been a show
at Suckett's Hurbor these forty years, ,--
The New York, at Norfolk, is hardly
nearer completion than she was in 1897.
The Vermont and Virginia have been
standing on the stocks in the Boston
Navy Yard while a whole generation Of
cotemporary ships have been built, used,
and grown rotten.
All this may be amusing to the Sec
retary, but it is anything but funny to
the taxpayers. Ships so delayed cost
twice as much money, for they pass
through the hands of different sets Of
contractors, and the natural decay Of
theirtimber5 requires constant repairing.
When they are at last finished "thirty
years after date, their model has grown
antiquated, and they prove the slowost
craft aAoat. We venture to predict that
any modern built clam-boa will outsail
the Sabine, either on or off the wind
This is the policy that keeps the
American Navy filed with old-fashion-
ed, unseaworthy hulks, while surround
ing nations boast Of their cliPper-mod-
eled, fast-sailing war steamers, built in
the same American ports by the same
American mechanics, side by side with
our "Sabines" and "Alabamas."
