aXle-tree, in the course of wearying
journey. No Eastern farmer ever real
lied the blessedness of abundant and
excellent wood and water until he had
wandered far from his boyhood's
home.
No one may yet be able fully 10 ex-
plain the intcrdependence of these two
blessings: but the fact remains. All
over the Plains, y there Is evidence
that trees grew and flourish9d where
none are now found, and that springs
and streams were then frequent and
abiding where none now exist. A
prominent citizen of Nevada, who ex-
plored southwark from Austin to the
Colorado, assured me that his party
travelled for days i'm the bed of what
had once been considerable river, but
in which it was evident that no water
had flowed for years. And | have
heard that, since the MCrmons have
planted trees over considerable setions
of Utah rains i'm Summer are no lon
ger rare, and Salt Lake evlnces, by
constant though moderate increase of
her volume of waters, that the equilib-
rum of rainfall with evaporation in
the Great Basin has been fully restored
or rather, that the rainfall is now
lslhlilH llit ltitu.
Spain, Italy, and portions of France,
are now suffering from the IMPROVE
dence that devoured their forests, leav-
ing the future to take care of itself. /
presume the great empires of antiqui-
ty suffered from the same folly, though
to a much greater extent. The re-
mains of now extinct races who for
merly peopled and titled the central
valleys of this continent, and especial
ly the Territory of Arizona, probably
bear witness TO similar destruction,
which is parallelled by our fathers and
our own determination of the magnifi-
cent forests of White Pine which bare
ly "A century ago, covered so large a
portion of the soil of our Northern
States. Vermont sold White Pine
abundantly to England through Cana
da within my day: she is now supply
ing her own wants from Canada at n
cost of not less than five times the
price she sold for; and she will be pay
ing still higher rates before the close
of this century. ! entreat our farmers
not to preserve every tree, good, bad,
or Indifferent. that may happen TO be
growing on their lands-hut, outside
of the limited districts wherein the
primitive forest must still be cut away
i'm order that the land may he obtained

Two of the roads of this line were
physically broken down and financial
~ bankrupt when they escaped from
the control of the management which
the present superseded.
This is the line of railway whose
power for good to the State and capa-
bilittes for resuscitation are so abIin-
dantly displayed, and which George
rye, acting as member of the Board
OF Public Works, prevented from be-
ing sold out.
Yes, land to his credit be il remem-
bered) It was Treasurer Rye who said
that never while his head was hot
would he consent to the sale of the
states interest in her public works.
The receipts of the several roads

current fiscal year, October to January,
inclusive, i'm round numbers:
Norfolk Il Petersburg II. n. S18S, 900

When for the corresponding period
OF the past fiscal year they were rs fol-
lows;

And when for the corresponding

ginia and Tennessee railroad they
were.

[Rome Cor. ~ Y. IVorld.l
The Fathers of the. Council drifted
i'm early, each as he listed, after the
fashion followed by them on Chistmas
day, and so seated themselves. About
nine a. NJ. n company of eX-royal per-
sonages, including the wretched little
Duke of Parma and his Duchess; the
small and Insignificant looking daugh-
ter of Isabella of Spain and her young
husband, the Count of Girgenu; the
Count and Countess of Caserta; and
the Grand Duchess Marie Antoinette
of Tuscany, entered on of the tribunes
to the right of the Papal throne, and
seated themselves therein and short
ly after the Pope himself emerged from
the Gregorian Chapel wherein sleeps
his predecessor, Gregory XVI, and
which is Just now used as vestry for
his Holiness. The ex-royal person.
ares in the tribune Ut was a curious
thing, was it not, by the way, that
ROYALTY on this occasion should have
been represented only by the members
of two dispossessed dynastes?l raised
their opera-glasses in their well-gloVed
hands and scanned, in what seemed TO
me a somewhat worldly fashion, the
PontiR King as he advanced with a
firm step and lifted head up to the
throne. His holiness wore the gleam-
ing tiara. or triple crown; he was sur
rounded by the highest officers OF his
court-the Vice Chancellor of the Holy
Roman Church; Cardinal Bisop di san
Filino G Sorso, q venerable old man..
all Il blaze of scarlet drapery; the
Prince Orsini, Prince Assistant Of the
Holy See, soberly and solemnly cloth
ed in a flowing black Spanish mantle !;
the Marquis Cavalletti, Senator of
Rome, and his colleagues the Conser-
yators. in robes of cloth of gold turned
up with crimson silk; and the chief
officials of the Council. Whatever
critical Protestants in the crowd as
sembled to gaze upon the scene may
have thought Of its spiritual aspects,
the least artistic among them all, l
think, must have been impressed by
the sensuous splendor of its accesso-
ries, and the temporary magnilicence
of the general effect, when the glitter
| ing central figure took his seat beneath
the crimson canopy of his throne, and
| for a brief moment glanced around
| him upon the shining array of prelatcs,
| tier above tier, on either hand, robed
i'm white and gold, and outward thro'
| the colossal framework of the Councils
opened doors upon the motley multi
tude beyond, and upward to the inn
perial dome of his own proud and
peerless church. Standing, as | stood,
near the doorway of the Aula, among
the armed and uniformed knights
of st. John and the noble guards who
kept its portals, could not but think
that certain amount of injustice had
been done, some three centuries ago,
to John Huss, considered merely as All
arch@ologist, when at Constance hC

tempting to preach. An elder was
summarily banished from Sweden.
The Prussian authorities acted
with their wontcd vigor when Nor
monlsm attempted TO gain footing in
Berlin. In January, 1853, Elders Or
son Spencer and Jacob Houtz arrived
In Berlin, Prussia, but found that it
was impossible to preach or publish
the truth of the Latter Day work in
consequence of religious moderation.
Ihese elders wrote to the Kings Minis
Ter of Public Worship for permission
To preach but were immediately sum-
moned before the Police Court and
catechised as TO the object of their mis-
sion. They were ordered to leave the
Kingdom next morning under penal
ty of transportation The succeeding
paragraph, which relates To Gibraltar,
stands out in marked contrast to to the
foregoing. An elder who went there
the same year that his brethren pro-
ceeded to Prussia had his right to re-
main on the rock challenged by the
Governor, who afterwards recognized
1t, but he forbade the preaching of
Mormonism. Elder Stevenson paid
no heed to the interdict, remained
over year, and baptised several,
"'i'''Sl thi'ttt@g lDIOulDlliOllS anu COll-
slant opposition
This illustrates the difference be-
tween the governor of British pos
session and Prussian police magis-
trate. The latter having decided
against Mormonism, made his will law
to the elders. They had simply TO
choose between an immediate depart
ure from the kingdom and the penalty
of transportation. AT Vienna the eld-
ers were rebuffcd as eilectually as at
Berlin. Two of them went to the
capital of Austria in 1864. There they
labored for several months to acquire
the German language, but i'm cense-
quenenc of religious intolerance they
were unable 10 open the door for the
proclamation of the gospel in that
country. In some of the British colo
nies the missionaries were treated as
summarily as liz the countries Just
named. On the whole, the religious
liberation which is the glory of Eng
land has made that country an open
field for their labors. They have
founded churches i'm England, they
have published books, phamplets and
newspapers there, have held meetings
by the hundred, have made dupes
by the thousand. In truth, Salt Lake
City resembles an English settlement

The phiicsophy of welding Metals.

When two pieces of metal of any
kind are to he united by welding, the
surfaces of conjunction must be brought
to such temperature that the particles
will form n perfect continuity between
the pieces united. This embraces the
entire theory OF welding, soldering, or
brazing metallic substances of any
kind. \ poor weld, or an imperfect
piece of braZing or soldering, may al
ways be attributed to the lack of skill
on the part of the workman. In adj
dition, however, 70 the equal and ade-
quate heating OF the surfaces To be uni
ted, every particle of coal-dust, cinders,
or scales of oxide must be removed, so
as to present two perfectly clean sur
faces mt the very moment when the
union is TO be effected. Furthermore,
the piece of metal that would fuse at
the lower temperature must be the
guide, when bringing the surfaces of
conjunction up to the proper heat. If,
Tor example, two pieces of wrought
iron are TO be welded, the part that
Will melt at the lower temperature
must be brought just TO a welding heat,
and the surface OF the other piece must
be heated quite rs hot; or n tIillc hotter,
than the first piece. Then, if the sur
laces be clean when the parts are
brought together, the union will be
satisfactorily complete. The degree of
heat aimed at must bo-not to produce
fluid-but simply to bring the metal
INTO a condition between tiuidity and
Elasticity.
When a soldering-iron, sufficiently
hot to melt solder readily, is applied to
Il piece of solder on n sheet of clean
tin, as the tin Is so thin, the surface
will be heated almost instantly as hot
as the melted or half-fluid solder, and
the resulting union will be perfect
But let the same soldering-iTon and
some of the same solder be employed
