PLANT OAK TREES. The process Of defor-
estiug our lands upon the Atlantic border has
gone on for centuries, and in the very populous
States has necessitated replanting. : t, is a
tact not sufficiently known, that oaks may be
rapidly grown and will develop, within an or
dlnary lifetime, fine groves Of those noble trees
stead. Major Ben ePerley Poore has upon his
estate in Massachusetts, splendid oak forest
Or woods Of thirty acres, every acorn for which
was planted BY himself about thirty years age.
Ihe trunks of the. trees are now from foot to
a foot and halt in diameter.-- Wttsh: ChSon.

IA TEST, OF MORALITY. There is a general
decay Of publ, morality In the little Missis-
sippi town known by the sounding title of
Yazoo City. A local paper .deplores the evil
habits into which the men Of, the place have
fallen. : Are; there twenty men in Yazoo
City, 1T inquiries s.swho do not average from
three gto nine drinks daily?" Norris this the
worst; the drinks" are taken on empty
stolnachs, when the liquor, having nothing
with which to assimilate,, acts directly upon the
mucous membrane" Yet the editor of this
Yazoo sheet does not mean to say that Yazoo
is a disspated place; hessimply announces the.
fact that it is the fashion to, be drunken, and!
he, adds with charming candor that this ten
dency Of the population is really deplorable,
ON account sot tbe peculiar character Of our
common Diseases and the consequences are,
therefore moro serious than they would other!
wise be. But the conclusion is the best =.
No gentleman need iee touched at our re-
marks, and say we are after :motes5in other.
peoples eyes; for we very candidly ackaow-!
ledge our partiality to the stuff, and if any one
thinks we wilE not take it, just let him bring
along a bottlc5apd try u.s.. But:does, that alter
