WO0D PREsEBVING.-WOod preserving

The United States Government having eX-
amined the subject of our rapidly dimil-
ishing forests, have given warning that we
shall soon be conscious of a national famine
for wood, unless we preserve what we now
have. The necessity of providing by legis-
lation against the rapid destruction and
waste of the valuable timber lands in the
State Of Michigan, is now being discussed,
and will be urged upon its Legislature at
it's neyt session. Such legislation, too,
would largely Increase the value of lumber.
As to the matter of general utility, would

able of metals. In view Of these Conside-
ratiOns there are at present six or eight
patents in vogue by which wood may be
rescued from the remorseless grasp of its
inexoraole enemy, decay. The time may
soon come when oil the wood that enters
into the construction Of dwellings will be
impregnated with some preserFatlZe sub
stance as a matter of real necessity.

AUSTRALIAN ENTERPRIsE.-We notice
by Australian papers that that country,
having but limited number of useful ami
mails inhabiting it originally, Is doing its
best to supply the deficiency. Phsassnts
and guinea fowls have been imported and
set free and have rapidly increased. Trout
have been placed in all the principal streams
and some few English perch. Deer, An
CORA goats, ostriches and sparrows are also
thriving, and becoming more plentiful. Is
there no hint for us in America In this !
We have an experimental garden for the
propagation of foreign plants. Can we not
have supplementing this, garden for the

successful in other countries, with view
to utilizing those animals that are found to
endure our climate kindly.

New York, Dee. 15.-The Tribune trustees
held a meeting Friday afternoon, at which every
member was present. Mr.. Sinclair brought for
ward the ColfaX proposition, which received the
support Of only himself and one other. Six
ont Of the eight trustees opposed sustaining MIR.
Reds conduct of the paper, and urging that he
be retained with no instruction save to continue
carrying out the policy of Mr.. Greeey's card.
1t was settled that no change would be made
in the policy OF the-paper as Mr. Greeley left il,
without change in the controlling proprietor
ship. Mr. Sinclair then went TO work to make
up pool of ouside stockholders 70 sell con
! trolling interest. 1t is understood that be with
DR.. Aver and the representatives of estates Of
one or two deceased prOprietors mot including
Mr.. Greeley 81 have nearly or quite made up the
hIty-one shares needed, and propose selling at
| the rate of 81 100000 TO a combination repre-
senting the telegraph and administration inter
est.
Mr.. Reid said that in case the proprietorship
and policy thus changed, he would also sell his
four shares and at once retire.
1t has transpired to-day that in the trustees
meeting, MIR. Reid protested against Mr.. Sin
| car's proposal TO abandon the ground on
| which Mr.. Greeley placed the paper in his card,
! reSuming the editOrShip He said Mr.. Sinclair
was the last man who ought 10 do this injustice
| to Mr.. GIeeley'S memory, because il was through
Mr.. Sinclair's solicitation that Mr.. Greeley
! finally consented to become presidential can
| didate.
Mr.. Sinclair admitted this, but said he urged
| Mr.. Greeley TO it and wrote letters over the
country to further Mr.. Greeey's chances at
! Cincinnati, because he knew that Mr.. Greeley
would not support Grant, and thought the next
| best thing was to get him TO be Il candidate
| himself. MIR. Reid said he himself had
not favored Mr.. Greeley's candidacy, and
had discouraged MIR. Greeley from nearly
up to the time when Mr. Greeley directed him
to go to Cincinnati as his representative. But
he believed in the Cincinnati platform, as Mr..
! Greeley did, and would not remain in charge Of
the Tribune if that platform were opposed, and
| the position in which Mr.. Greeley placed the
paper by his card and his latest writings were
fatty abandoned, as he understood to be now
| proposed.

United States legal tender note of the
denomination Of $500. 1t is composed of
parts of different genuine notes OF var-
Gus denominations. The centre is part OF
one hundred, with the one taken out in the
centre and the upper border, and five neatly
inserted. The left hand lower end cont aims the
portrait of Andrew jackson taken from So
note, the right hand lower end vignette from
a 10; the scroll work, containing the figures 500
has been taken from a national bank note. The
back of the note is from SO United States
note the 10 having been cut out and replaced
by the ovals from the back of a five. Although
this note is not calculated TO deceive bankers and
brokers, it would be readily taken by those who
are not accustomed to handling much money.
The engraving is all genuine, and in its general
appearance it has no resemblance to the note of
the denomination OF which it purports to be a
genuine issue.
