by which he Is animated, and the miser-
able dogmas of State rights, Immediate
restoration of rebels to power, and po-
litical equality of rebels and loyal men,
by which his competitor and the party
with which he is identified are distin-
guished, you will feel proud and power

accord, enlAusia astically resolve that
General Gresham shall be elected as

The Production Of Timber.

Bayard Taylor, in a recent letter from
Kansas, says that hundreds of acres of
prairie, which have been protected from
fires by contiguous cultivated fields, are
overgrown with hickory and oak trees
from four to six feet high. Where land
is tolerably well watcred and undisturb-
ed, especially if in vicinity of wooded
country, it will give support to what is
commonly called spontaneous growth
of timber. The character of the growth
depends mainly upon the quality of the
soil. The seed may have remained for
years in the soil, possessing latent Vi
tality, which awaits only favorable con-
ditions for its development. Poor soils
seem first to favor the pine, and this In
turn gives place to the more rapid grow
ing deciduous trees, until the chestnut
and the oak find fitting support and con-
dtions for their growth and develop
ment But in country like this, where
the demand for timber for manufactur
ing and building purposes threatens to
rob us of our forests, 1t may not be well
to rely wholly upon the unaided forces
of nature for supply. The resolution
introduced into Congress to offer incen-
tives to the planting of our immense
parairies with trees, we regard as time
ly suggestion. The great drawback to
the settlement of those vast fertile plains
is the absence of wood and an unfailing
supply of water These secured, and
our parairies will be selected in prefer
ence to localities less favorable To agri-
cultural pursuits, but which furnish wool
and water in profusion.
Wherever there are forests there will
be water, and the last is an indispensable
requisite to human habitation. 4 sec
ton of country unprovided With elevat-
ed points as gatherers Of the moisture of

est to retain the rains, which, on a naked
| plain, alternate periods of extreme

SCANDAL on THE BRAIN.

or all the many maadies
And many human ills
That rack the frame and fire the blood,
In spite Of drugs and pills,
The that takes the deepest root,
And gives the greatest pain,
And makes the patient venomous,
Is scandal the brain.
CHORUS:
Biting biting, trying, 2ryng. seeking spot and stain,
Those are sure and rapid signs Of scandal on th'
brain.
There's Miss Fitz Frr, the dear good soul,
She thinks of self,
But keeps a record of her friends,
Quite handy on the shelf
And when she's nothing else to do,
She takes the volume down
And enters all the scraps and bits
Of gossip round the town.
Some people dress and 90 to church,
With faces long and prim
And meekly say their morning prayers,
And sing the Sunday hymn.
But just church is out,
Some shady nook they gain,
To ease their minds and treat their friends
To scandal on the brain.
Says Beam to Mote, OH have you heard
The strange and shocking news,
How Mr. Milf and Mrs. Milf
Have taken separate pews.
And how artful patience Gale
Was seen-now, don't you tell,
Out walking with a married man,
know him very well.
And there's so much horrid talk
About that Nancy Boggs,
They say she really went to ride
With Ebenezer Noggs,
And when the young man started of,
To leave the forward Miss,
The neighbors hea rd a faint report,
1t must have been kiss.
Now don't you think last Monday night.
When went out to walk
met Ned Huntley's wife, and we
Had such splendid talk;
She told me all about the fair,
And told her, you see,
The awful case about the Flints
That lived at No. 8.
And thus you'll find where'er you go,
That some will talk and pry,
And seek to have finger in
Some other body's pie;
But never mind. they're to feel
Themselves the sharpest pain,
When suffering with the dread disease
OF scandal on the brain.
SYMPTOMS.
Now when you a person nod
And ink, and whisper the sly,
About what .they say''-mighty "they,'
And end it with a sigh
Just set the man or woman down
As rabid-for It's plain
The've got the most malignant type
OF scandal on the brain.
