towns gave last year 1, 237 for Chamberlain

the sea sand encroached upon the arabic fields as
soon as the woods near the shore disappeared
Every one who has paid much attention to the
subject knows that these changes take place, gr-
ing rise sometimes to remarkable phenomena.
For instance, the long beach at Plymouth, when
the Pilgrims landed there, was covered with trees
and an island of considerable extent outside oil
the beach was also wooded. Since the trees nave
been cut the sea has washed the island away so
that it is covered by every tide, and the beach
has become 80 narrow in some parts that the seas
break through il. and needs 10 be strongly iro-
teeted by artificial means. As the security OF the
harbor Of p ymouth depends upon this beach the
folly of cutting down the trees Is now manifest
The effect of tine laws against cutting and in taVor
of planting trees in france have been such, that
of late years, instead of = steady decrease IN the
extent of woodland in the Empire, there has been
Il constant gain. In 1850 the wooded surface oil
France was S,7S3, 343 hectares, or less than D.
SOC. 600 acres, the whole number of acres of land
in France being ut least lbs zoo GOO. In 1865
the number of hectares in wood had increased TO
over 9.0O0, 900, or nearly a million acres more
than fifteen years before. In 4 few of the other
European countries preservation of wood has been
undertaken, but nowhere Will so much success as
in France. Until within a few years since coal
has commanded a high price, the natural increase
of wood in Massachusetts has kept pace with the
amount cut off each year.

As this Is the season most favorable to plant
ing trees, all who have land should endeayor to
increase the number Of trees growing on it. The
value Of even Il vacant pasture lot may be doubled
by planting it with fruit and ornamental trees.
Care must always be taken to guard against ami
mails during the first few years.
Every year the forests on our mountains are
decreasing in extent. and the time will come
when legal provision will he necessary to protect
them, a. Is done in some European countries. for

1t is well known that the views expressed by
our correspondent, 90 are not in all respects in
harmony with those held by the publisher of this
paper but we are constantly receiving evidence
that he expresses the sentiments of a large and
increasing number of persons, including many of
our Oldest and most influential residents.
We regard the growth of such sentiments rs
the natural result of the course of the Ministry.
and regret that their policy, or rather want of
policy, should give force to the arguments adduced.
While we are not as yet without hope that some
cure may be found for the growing evils com
planned Of, short of the remedy advanced by our
correspondent, We deem it our duty To give
free scope for the discussion of n subject that is
daily forcing Itself upon public attention. We
Yet hope that the earnest desires Of a large class
of His Majesty's faithful subjects will secure
the respectful attention due to them, in spite of n
hostile Ministry, which we have reason to fear is,
by n most persistent and ill-advised course, sdo-
ing its little best " to ALLEVIATE His Majesty from
the respectful and earnest loyalty of Il large num-
Der Of His subjects.
