INDIA MooNsmNE-M -Mr. Coffin ii bis
recent book, 'flur New Way Round the
World, thus writes Of its effects on man
within Che trepic-. lie in India The
moon Is at It's full, pouring lis rays upon the
zenith straight do@n upon Us, with power
that is almost uubeareblc a, that Of the sun
at MD day. There is no heat in its rays,
but they have great effect upon the brain
The blood rushes to the head and there is a
sense Of flllne5s and pressure which although
uot attended by accute pain, is exceedingly
unpleasant We fnd it necessary to keep
our umbrellas spread at midnight, as vel
as nj day It's dangerous to sleep in the
moonlight in the tropics In this country
we can see new belu;y in tie words Of the
Psalmi-t, expressive Of Gods care for those
who lJvc him: Tue sun shall not smite
thee by day, nlr the moon by night

NEWSPAPER POWER Thirty years
ago, says Wilkes Spirit, "the orators ruled
America: to-day it is ruled by the editors
1t adds: There is a class Of men among
bankers and merchants and lawyers who
affect condeseen-ion toward the journal
lists which is intensely amusing The writer
for the newspaper appears to their blinking
eyes kind Of literary adventurer, who is to
be tolerated for his genius, but MT to be
trusted in business. They are ignorant that
it sells their goods, furnishes all their facts,
aud presents the,n grataitously with opin-
ions. They do not know, as j. Cooke does,
that he newspapers Of America sold two
thousand millions Of national bonds They
Do not kpow, as Edwin NJ Stanton knows,
thar the newspapers Of America sent five
hundred thousand men to the war. News
papers len them b. the nose wherever they

is tie reason why We give this special

Planting Trees.

II we knew the names OF those persons
who took the lead in setting out trees in our
city generations ago, we certainly would
make record OF them and hand them down
to posterity. They set noble examine
which has been followed by mans who came al
ter them, aud even now their influence is felt
by our citizens. At an early period OF the
history OF Portland somebody had fine tsste
TOR trees, aud we are happy to say that there
IS at the present time no great lack OF it.
we are certainly shead OF many other New
England cities in our love and taste for shade
trees. This is just as it should be, and we
trust all ouf owners of real estate will con-
tinue to follow the example OF the early iath-
ers, and plant trees on every available spot.
The French have strong attachment Tor
trees; at least we should judge so from the
fact there are row in "a is 14S,OOO shade
trees-pripcipally the Elr, Plum, Horse

Ailanthus. Perhaps our city previous to the

returning thanks to Providence the only
occasions when he does 30 being those on
which he writes message or issues proc

the material increase and Development Of
the state generalizes upon It's manuiactur.
ing ind mining interests; and hopes that
congress will look with favor upon its com.
mercal interests by granting aid to the Hi.
uois river and canal improvements. Some
lengthy statistical tables concerning the
state debt are introduced that are Of interest
TO people who desire to acquaint themselves
with the details Of our local fSancial situa.
ton, although, to the general public, the
debt of Illinois mas ceased to be- an object of
solictude. To meet the amount ofindebted.
ness falling due in 1871 about three and
quarter millions,-the governor thinks it
will be necessary to levy only very light
tax. After 1870, the receipts from canal
tolls, and the Illinois Central railway seven
per cent. will be sufficient to pay the funded
debt as it natures, without looking to rove.
nue. from any other source for that purpose.

FUsEL OIL

else, that Of thirty.two samples Of bourbon
and brandy obtained from the liquor deal
ers Of that city, all but four contained more
or less fusel oil. Fusel oil is not at all pc.
cular to the empire city, but doubtless en-.
tiers into the strong drink Of the country in
about the same proportion as into that Of
the New York liquor dealers. In reply to
the question what this oil is, the New York
Times says:
"Duuglson describes 1t as an acril, volatile
OH, ior,1sd in the manufacture Of potato brandy
and which il not easily Iepbrable from il AMI
another authority says it "ccompontcs ordinary

constituent IL 0Haloy0W Ia that Of alcohol, and
that, in small doses, it IS highly stimulating

duses il destroys the mucous membrane Of the
