THE DARIEN EXPEDITION.-A letter from
the Darien expedition, dated Caledonia Bay,
16ult., states that on arriving the Indians on
both sides of the bay were assured that they
would not be molested, and their friendship
Was secured. Washington river was explor
ed for about mile from its mouth, when the
boats sent found it impossible to proceed fur
ther, and returned; but it was decided to COM
mence the survey about three hundred wards
from the mouth OF this river. Subsequently
captain Seliridge, accompanied by other Offl-
GERS and slxty-four marines, started by the
way OF Caledonia river to reach the head wa
tiers of the Savannah river, and returned on
the 3rd Of March. They passed over Lieut..
Strains route for a considerable distance. fol-
lowing Caledonia river to the foot of the last
OF the Cordileras that divides the Caribbean
sea from the Pacific slope. Then he crossed
the mountains to the western slope, had an
interview with Indian chiefs, and afterwards
returned. 1t was such a Reconnaissance. DEM
onstratlng that the Caledonia river has a rise
OF only fifty feet to the mountain spurs. and
between that point and the plain of the
Sucubte river, on the Pacific slope, there is
but one and a half miles of higher elevation.
1t is believed the survey will prove that the
watershed between the Caledonia and Sucubte
rivers is not more than $50 feet, Pack mules
have been sent for at Carthagena. SURVEYORS
are running line to the lowest of the msun-
tain passes, but work is slow, owing to the
dense underground. The expedition is heal
thy. The Indians are friendly, but it is said
those on the Pacific slope are not. Several
passes will soon be examined by Capt. Self
ridge, and all are saIguine of success.

PRESERVING THE TREEs.-A correspon-
dent (D) takes up this subject, and suggests
that the cause Of the destruction of the shade
trees in and around the city by caterpillars Is
found in the fact that boys and men are In
the habit of shooting and trapping the birds,
which are the natural enemies of caterpillars
and other worms that infest our trees.
Deering's Oaks and other groves in the vi
cinity of the city are favorite places for bird
hunters; and he asks the attention of the po-
lice authorities to this reprehensible practice,
and desires to remind people that the statute
penalty for the destruction of birds is severe.
We think a few wholesome examples of the
efficiency of the law is advisable.

Barnes with Halls and comfortable Cushings,
but this is more than neutralized by their
preparation for sports. They keep Woods,
and though they can Chase but one Hare
and one Martin therein, they have Fishes
with Gils, though they have Lothing

professions! Does this account for the fact
that one of their number is always High?
Their Merryfield is easily discovered by their
Noyes They have Day without night, but
they have Noon after Noon. No wonder they
claim a perpetual Pentecost. Winsloto, from
the Lee. promises to carry them to their favor

the line, and the Noble gathers the Gould and
Stone for their temple attended by good Feltosos
With good Coltyer, of course they keep
good supply of Cole. This may account for
the unusual phenomenon of Rice by the Peck,
among Ayers where Sno,o is ever found
