Reaatlral ArtIeles d q Furn.ture.


The bogs of ireland are to the masses of
that country what the coal fields Of England
are to its people, and what our own forests are
to u.s. in the matter Of fuel. The peat dug
from those bogs, cut into cubes, about the
dimensions of brick, is sun dried, and dur
ing the inelemency of winter serves to warm
the peasant in his cabin, as ascomfortably as the
supplies furnished by the Whitehayen collier
toasts the shins Of London cit, or the hickory
or pine Of this eis-Atlantie region, generates
the caloric needful for winter season.
In digging these bogs, at the depth of
many feet stratas of timber have been found,
as if whole forests had been leveled, by some
great conYulsion. When Or how those trees
We're laid prone, is matter of speculation, in
which geologists and antiquaries have
spread themselves, but no one has vet
thought Of theory that is not open to OBJ
lection. The history Of Ireland, written and
traditional, goes back to the earliest days of
christianity, but no account exists ofany event
which would account for these subterranean
woods. What is most strange is, that pine
knots are now taken from these bogs, as full
of resinous matter and as infammable as the
pine knots our soldiers picked up around
| their biyouaes to cook their rations and illu-
inmate their camps; and the Irish oak, in its
living condition now, ponderous and very
cross grained timber, is found beneath these
spongy and humid earths, not only in perfect
preservation but more compact, and so solid
that it seems to have undergone something
like petrifaction. This is what is called bog
oak. 1t is sometimes as black as ebony, and
Iis susceptible Of gloss like that of fine
marble.
In the beautiful dells and glens about the
Lakes Of Killarney is found growing natur-
ally the arbutus, or strawberry tree, which
is an exotic in every other part Of Europe,
except on the shores of the Mediterranean.
About those enchanted lakes this evergreen,
las if it were a missionary from the vegetable
kingdom, toremind the Irish people that they
are q race cognate to those who are most
familiar with the tree, fourishes with beauty
unknown even on Latin ground.
OF these two woods we now have in the
auction mart Of Montgomery 4 Brother some
o& the most beautiful specimens Of mechani-
cal skilI and artistic conception that has ever
been submitted to the inspection Of the peo-
pie Of New Orleans. They have lately re-
ceiyed a1 escritoire, side table, an oval
table and round table, from James Egan 4
arbutus works in Killarney. They were
among the articles exposed at the Dublin Art
Exhibition, in 1866, aud challenged the ad- |

The furniture is framed of the bog oak,

being of a cream color presents pleasing
contrast with the dark oak. 1t is not however

MECHANICS AND AGRICULTURAL FAIR.


We publish elsewhere to-day list of the
committees appointed to make the awards of
premiums to be distributed at the approach
ing fair of the Mechanics and Agricultural
Association of Louisiana. The reader will
also observe the different classifcations
which include most, if not all, of the indus
trial productions, either mechanical or agri-
cultural, of Louisiana and of the South gener-
ally. The directors have, in general, shown
very excellent Judgment and discrimination in
the selection of the awarding committees; and
in the list will be found many of the best
names among the merchants, mechanics,
planters, and other representative men Of the
southwest
1t will be seen, upon referring to the expo
sition of MIR. Homes, the secretary, that there
are no less than forty classes. forwhich award
| ing committees have been appointed; and
these classes include everything which rep
resents the industry of our people. There is,
indeed, hardly citizen, no matter what his
| business, who will not have an opportunity
to show to the, crowd of visitors some speci-
men of his handiwork, or of his mechanical
skill, or of his excellence as an agriculturist
or stock raiser. The ladies too will find,
