Some experiments made at Coldwa-

trees nearly dead can be galvanized
into life. A couple Of Norway spruce
trees, apparently dead, were restored
to life and wonderful vigor. A bate

the roots, and in less than week
both trees evinced a newncss of life
truly remarkable, the branches swell

men are buying largely for the pur-

The Presidential Turf.

As things stand at present, we are
likely to have a regular scrub race on
the Presidential turf. A new horse
appears in the field every few days,
which makes the prospect decidedly
more and more interesting. It's free
race, and if any others feel disposed
to try the sod, the field is open. OF
course there can be no question as to
the winning nag. Ten to one on the
Lincoln steed. All the old crabs that
have entered against him, might as
well pay their forfeit. They may car
ry light weight, jockey, sponge off,
and resort to all the tricks of the turf,
but they arc all bound to be distanced.
The slate is now filled up as follows ::
THE WINNING srEED.
For President,
ABRAHAM LINCOLN, of Illinois.
For Vice President,
HANNIBAL HANLIN, of Maine.
THE CONSTITUTIONAL UNION CRAB.
For President,
