grow miniature pines and oaks in flower
pots for half century has always been
much of secret. 1t is the product chiefly
of skillful, long continued root pruning
They begin at the beginning. Taking
Young plant (say seeding OF cutting OF
a CEDAR when only two or three inches
high. then cut off its tap roots as soon as it
has other rootlets enough to live upon, and
replant in shallow pot or pan. The end
of the tap root is generally made to rest
upon the bottom of the pan, or on fiat
stone within it. Alluvial clay is then put
into the pot, much of it in bits the size of
beans, and just enoughin kind and quantity
to furnish a scanty nourshment to the
plant. Water enough is given to keep 1t
in growth but not enough is given to excite
a vigorous habit So likewise in the APP
plication of light and heat Then, too, the
top and roots, being within easy reach OF
the Gardener, are shortened by his pruning
knife, or scared with his hot iron. So the
little tree, finding itself headed on every
side, gives up the idea of strong growth,
asking only for life, and just growth
enough to live and look well. According
", each new set of leaves become more
and more stunted, the buds and rootlets
are diminished in proportion, and at length
a balance is established between every part
of the tree, making it dwarf in all re-
spects. In some kinds of trees this end is
reached in three or four years; in others
ten or fifteen years are necessary. Such
is the fancy horticulture OF the Celestials.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June 25, 1867.
II, T. HrLMBoLp, Druggist-DEAR SIR: have
been n sufferer for upwards of twenty years with
gravel, bladder and kidney affections, during which
time have used various medicinal preparations
and been under the treatment of the most eminent
physicians, experiencing bit little relief
Having seen your preparations extensively ad
vertised, consulted my family physician in regard
to using your Extract Buchu.
did this because had used all kinds of adver
tised remedies and had found them worthless and
some quite injurious; in fact, despaired of ever
getting WELL and determined to use no remedies
hereafter unless knew of the ingredients. 1t was
this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you
advertised that it was composed of buchu, cubebs
and juniper berries, it occurred to and my phys
ician as an excellent combination; and with his add
vice, after an examination of the article and con
sulting again with the druggist concluded to try
it. commenced to use it about eight months ago.
at which time was confined to my room.
From the first bottle was astonished at the ben
efcal effect, and after using it three weeks was
able to walk out. felt much like writing to you
full statement of my case at the time but thought
my Improvement might only be temporary, and
therefore concluded to defer and see il it would
effect perfect cure, knowing then it would be OF
greater value to you and more satisfactory me.
am now able to report that a cure is effected
after using the remedy for five months.
have not used any now for three months, and
feel as well in all respects as ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste
and odor nice tonic and nvigorator of the system
i do not mean to be without it whenever occasion
may require its use in such affections.

| propose to give evidence that this Remedy is
not patent medicine. The objection which gener-
ally lies against all discoveries and inventions in
medicine is publicity" If somebody should dis
a remedy to proong life, or an infallble cure
for cholera or consumption, what monster would
he be to withhold his knowledge! We have yet to
learn from what chapter or verse in Scripture to
quote, hat may not heal others of their fellow men
of any disease"
Nor have we asked Pickwcks, affected prudes,
or in short men who are possessed of every kind
of sense but common sense, and all kinds of opin-
ions but their own. The Buchu is good thing 1t
has hundreds of thousands of living witnesses to
attest its virtues and commend it. 1t is the preju.
dice of bgots and the envy of "Quacks."

EDITOR CosMopoLITE: Il desire, as au unsoici-
ted tribute TO the merits of HELMBoLD's BUGuU,
and for the benefit OF those similarly afflicted as
myself, to say that afler consulting many eminent
physicians and trying nearly all the best advertised
remedies, in the vain hope of finding relief from
aggravated kidney and bladder diseases, from
which have suffered excessively for many years
good fortune finally suggested to me UEIMBoLD's
BCCHU, which commenced using with little faith,
and no apparent beneficial effects for about
month. At the expiration of that time, however
thought commenced to experience slight relief,
which encouraged me to persevere in its use, and
now at the expiration of four months although
am an nirm old man, nearly seyenty-eght years
of age, and consequently medicines cannot be ex-
pected to favorably affect me as they otherwise
would, have found such unspeakable relief and
permanent benefit from Mr.. Helmbods valuable
discovery, that feel ought to publicly record the
fact an acknowledgment to him. and a valuable
suggestion to the public Yours respectfully,

INVESTMENTS IN CONFEDERATE Bonds
We learn that the decision OF Chief Justice
Chase in a case lately depending before
him (Head and others us. Tally, administr:,-
tori touching investments made by admin
istrators, guardians, &C., in bonds of the
late Confederate States, was that where an
administrator purchased such securities
directly from the tnsurgent Government,
though one of its officers, with the funds
of his beneficiary, he must be held respon-
sible for the amount so invested. Such a
transaction, directly furnishing money to
the insurgents to carry on the war against
the United States, could not be recognized
BY the courts of the United States.
The Chief Justice intimated no opinion
as to what would be the law in case per-
son acting in u fiduciary capacity invested
trust funds bona .ttde in Confederate securi-
ties, purchased, not from the Confederate
Government, but in open market. without
any intent to aid the rebellion.
We make this explanation because the
simple announcement of the decision OF
Chief Justice Chase, in the case of Head ps.
Tally, administrator, might cause the souls
of administrators, &C., acting as such du-
ing the late war, to quake within them.
