our knowledge extends, though young insti-
tuition, it has the finest and largest specimens
OF the antediluvian forests with which we are
acquainted
While the change to stone is complete, the
structure of the wood is as perfectly preserved
as if no change had occurred. The petfffying
agent was SILICA, and ii may be seen incrust
ing some portions of the surface in white and
blue globules.
From the curvature of the annual rings of
growth, we judge the tree from which these
specimens come to have been at least fourteen
feet in diameter, and their number and thick
ness indicate that it must have required about
one thousand and .six hundred years to grow
10 that size. The larger specimen of the TWO
is over nine feet in circumference at the base,
on which it stands nearly erect and is five feet
and half high and weighs one ton and half,
3O0O pounds. The other specimen is nearly
as long, weighing half as much, and is nearly
uniform in size from end to end, while the
larger specimen tapers from the base to about
half the size at the top.
The species to which these wonderful speei.
mems belong has probably been long extinct,
but they appear to resemble very closely in
every respect the California redwood &C hica-

WHAT CAME OF A CoTToN HANDKERCHIEF.
Within few weeks there died in one OF the
towns of Bristol county man leaving proper.
ty to the amount of $4,000, who in his young
days was the owner OF ninepenny cotton hand
kerchief, which, like many an object of more
importance, has its own history. Upon one
balmy day in August, when whortleberries
were thick and mosquitoes plenty, he, in com.
pany with other juveniles Of either sex, made
an excursion for the berries. Among them
was one rosy lass who was exceedingly annoy
ed by the numerous bills presented, and whose
white neck rebelled against their acceptance
but nevertheless, the Aforesaid cotton flag
was offered and accepted as protec'
ton, worn home, aud that night thrown
aside and forgotten. The girl grew into
womanhood, married, and was happy in
her iorgetfulness of the "cotton loan" or
its embrowned and frecklcd owner. Not so
with him, AS year succeeded year and his
"pile" increased that investment in cotton trou.
bled him, until not long since he made GER
tain resolution. The next day there was
heard at the lady's residence the misers ner-
vous knock, and without Introduction or par
ley he reminded her of the loan which for forty
years she had forgotten, anil informed her
that upon a careful calculation of the debt he
made the loan and interest amount to the ex-
act sum of eighty seven cents which he sug.
gested perhaps she would be willing to repay.
In reply lie was told that il would give her
pleasure to discharge her indebtedness TO him
even for SO small u sum, and that night an adj
dition of eighty seven cents was added to his
"pile." The foregoing incident is true--
