The Australian Gum Tree in America.

A plantation ofthe Australian gum tree -
Eucalyptus is growing finely IN Castro
valley, Alameda county, California. 1t
covers fifty acres of ground; the trees are
planted in rows eight feet apart each way,
making forest grove of 80, 600 trees, SET
this season with one-year old seedlings oil
the blue-gum and iron-bark, the most Wig
orous and tall growing varieties OF the
Eucalyptus.
The largest of these trees are but i've
years old, erect, straight, vigorous growth,
and fifty feet high. They are elegant orna-
mental trees, somewhat resembling the
laurel, but more majestic and massive In
figure and foliage. They are hardy
throughout the lower hill and valley co1n-
try of California, and are the most popular
street, shad. and ornamental trees cult
waited there.
The wood of the Eucalyptus is hard, and
the timber useful for many purposes. Their
peculiar flavor and fragrance being dlsa-
yreeable to animals keeps them from being
eaten or gnawed. Hence the gum trees
can safely be set where other sorts of trees
would be destroyed. The past winter has
been severely frosty, but not one OF the
tender little trees in this grove have been
killed.
A great variety of Australian shade trees
of exquisite foliage have been cultivated IN
California with entire success. They are
very hardy and might be safely introduced
in Central Park, ~ I. Post

A Live Sensation.
From the Allentown pa Chronicle.

flblu NV hAiNufb"h Va ~ NN'N'AN
The people of Washington township
we're thrown into an unusual state OF ex-
element a few days ago by the appearance
of very remarkable and very strange
looking animal near the foot of the Blue
Mountain. 1t was afterwards seen prowl'
ing around the premises OF Daniel Haud-
work, and one afternoon it seized and car
ried off 10 the mountain one OF his largest
geese. Pursuit was made, but the animal
escaped A strong and well bated fox trap
WAS set on the farm of Hon. Samuel klst
Ter, where 1t had last been seen, and In
very short time they had the satisiac-
ton of baeging their game, which, IN
the end owing to the great strength and
ferocily Of the animal, was the most diff
cult part of the undertaking, but by means
of pitchlorks, pixies clubs, Nc, 1t was
finally secured. Some idea OF its great
strength may be formed from one OF the
leaps il made after being caught in the
trap, 1t Jumped twenty feet, carrying
with it the heavy trap chain and anchor
used in catching foxes. The strangest
part OF the whole affair is that the oldest
hunters IN the vicinity do not know what Il
is. IL has the appearance about the head
OF Wild cat, yet the shape Gifts body and
limbs is more like that of dog in size II
much exceeds wild cat; it is Of dark
color, with a few streaks of gray, and its
hair is long and coarse. All the works on
natural history in the upper end have
been consulted, but they have failed to shed
the least light upon the subject. We un'
ders and Mr.. Muthard, one of tho captors,
intends bringing ID to this city to put on
exhibition as a curiosity.

LOVERS PAIN.
BY A. M W.

I've thought, If those dumb heather gods could
breathe,
Asshapeless, strengthless, wooden things thsJ
stand,
And feel the holy incense round them wreathe,
And see fore them of rings Of the land;
And know that unto them is worship paid
From pure hearts kneerg on the yer liant sod'
Loobing to helpless ess for light and aid,
Because, by fats, they know no higher God:
Wow their duh hearts must ache with constant pain
And sense of shame, and fear to be hung down
When all their weakness must one day be plain,
And Are ayepge the undes erved cr0wni
A a reading my Loves letters sad and sweet sign
Knowing that such helpless, wooden thing am l.

The DUEL BETWEEN MoNrPfNsIEB AND
DoS ENRIQUE. The Paris correspondent OF
the Times writes; 1T appears that the
Duke of Moutpensicr, who Is ful'-bloodsd
and corpulent, took to his bed on Satur-
day with an attack of fever. Persons here
who know him intimately say that he is so
near.sighted that he csnnot at eight metres
distance, have possibly seen his cousin
sufficiently to take aim at him, and that he
must have hit him by mere chance; so that
il seems as ii the unfortunate Don Enrique
had been doomed TO die by the hand Of the
man whom he so long assiduously insulted
and ,raduced. The origin of the deceased
Iufantes hatred OF his cousin IS said TO have
been old rivalry for the hand OF the present
Dncbess of Montpensier. You may re-
member that in the period which preceded
the famous Spanish marriages, Don En-
rioue was one of those who aspired TO
become brother-iu-law to the Queen.
