An old Manuscript. .

In Upsala, in Sweden, there is Gu
IiOus and renowned old manuscript,
commonly, known as the Silver
Handwriting. 1t is a translation OF
the Bible into the original Gothic,
and the best authorities claim that il
was written toward the end of the
fifth or commencement of the sixth
century. IL was discovered in the
sixteenth century Mt Verden, on the
RihT, and its authenticity was at
once established. 1t was taken to
Prague, but the Swedes took il away
in 164S, and carried it to Stockholm /;
thence it was taken Into Holland,
and was brought back again for
Sweden by the Chancellor de Ia Car
die for four hundred dollars. He had
it magnificently bound in a solid sill
yer cover, and in 1863 presented it to
the University Of Upsala. 1t is writ
ten in silver on crimson parchment.
The headings in a few principal pas
sages are in gold. IL is rich in ByX-
antine tracery Of symbolic devices. =
It numbers three hundred and thirty
leaves, with twenty lines to each
page. Only two punctuation marks
are used throughout the period and
colon.

FirIIE oLD ELM"

This tree has been standing here
for anunknOwn period. IL is believed
to have existed before the settlement
Of Boston, being full-grown in I7.2-
Exhibited marks Of Old age in 1892,
and was nearly destroyed by a storm
in 1892. Protected by an iron fence in
1854. J. V. G. SMITH, Mayor
In 1S3j the Great Elm was sixty
five feet high, the circumference at
thirty inches from the ground being
twenty-One feet and eight inches, ansi
the sprend of branches eighty-six feet.
In 1855 it was measured, and found to
be senty-twO feet and a half in height;
first branch from the ground, twenty
two and a half feet; girth four feet
from the ground, seventeen feet; av-
erage diameter of greatest spread of
branches, one hundred and odd feet
This shows that the elm, ifteen years
ago, was still vigorous, and that dur
ing the last quarter of n century it
had made considerable growth.
During heRevOlutiOnarype period, after
the passage Ofthe Stamp Act by Parlia-
ment, the Great Elm was much used
by the patriots for hanging and burn
ing the effigies of obnoxious persons,
and was often, in consequence, expos
Ell to danger Ct destruction. Severe
tempests have several times assailed
it with great great violence. In 1881
or 1882 a storm separated four OF its
large limbs, and so far detached item
that they rested partially upon the
ground. They were raised, and bOsted
tOgethe-; the bolts are still visible,
and the branches appear to be perfect
ly united. In 1859 a large branch was
blown off; and in subsequent storms,
we believe, still greater damage has
been inflicted. Still, the old tree
stands, the pride and ornament Of the
Common, and the last relic Of the
days of the aborigines. All other
traces of the forest primeval chat
clothed the hills of Shawmut when
the Puritans settled there, have van
ished entirely. This noble elm alone
remains a memorial Of the savages
and the settlers.
