Northern Illinois Hortioural Society.

This society held it's annual session at
Freeport, Ill. last week. Matters of great
interest were brought before the Society.
On the subject of tree culture, the southern
portion of Wisconsin, is perhaps as much
interested as northern Illinois The follow
ing proceedings were had
Mr.. Scho6eld, of Kane, read an essay up
on timber culture aud the wants of the
country. He who increases the number of
trees is a benefactor of his race. Every
body of timber cut away, in this or any
other locality, should be as carefully pro-
tected from fire and cattle as before the
forest was destroyed. The demaud contin-
ues to increase while the supply is con-
stantly decreasing. In half century, if
nothing was dono the country will be tim
ber-impoverished. What can be done !?
First proclaim the present destitution. Hun.
dreds of millions of dollars were annually
paid for imported lumber and timber.
Eighty years ago the pine forests of the
East were deemed perfectly inexhaustible
They are now devastated. The great North
ern forests are melting away before the ak
and the fame.

Johnson's officials who hold. commission
by and with the advice and consent OF
the Republican Senate, on tie 4th of
March next, by the incoming administra-
ton, has been the subject of deep con-
sideratio by the friends of Gen. Grant
for q long time past. The subject hav-
ing lately been alluded to in conversation
With the President elect, he emphatical-
~ declared his opposition, in SO many
words, to the old Jackson doctrine that
TO the siutors belong the spoils. In
other words, he is opposed to turning
men out OF office merely for opinion $
sake. The purpose of his administra.
ton will be the faithful pre- ormance OF
the duties oil his great office; to see that
the laws are carried OUT that honesty
and economy prevail in the public SER
vice, and that all the offices arc filed by
capable and efficient men. This is under
stood to mean that if an officer in tn G
public sevice has shown q peculiar fit.
ness for his position and evidence of his
ability to preform its functions IN Che
highest degree of excellence and with
honesty OF purpose, no matter what his
political opinion may be, it would be
improper to disrlace that officer with
one who could at least perform the du-
ties no better. While it is probable
that Gen Grant will elk in the Rep
ublican party men to fill the verious
offices, il is certain that he will look
more closely to the fitness of the candi
date than to his political services to
any party; and that the claims Of no
man on the latter groun d merely will be
considered. Gen. Grant has also said in
conversation, recently, that he is in fa-
vor of the general features of Mr. Jenck.

For some time the project of building
another bridge over the Ohio river, be-
tween New Albany and Portland. has
been agitated, and very decided feel
ing in favor of the project has been de
veloped Il proposed that this bridge

We are glad 10 learn that this project
is about assuming definite shape and
substantial form. A survey has been
made and estimates completed in view
of the enterprise being organized, and
it is ascertained that such a bridge az is
contemplated can be built for five hun
dred thousand dollars. We are inform
ed that gentlemen in this city and Louis
