grounds and the cemetery there. The
stockade Is falling to decay, and year
or TWO more viii efface it entirely, except
from our hearts and memories. The
dead line -over which SO many SOL
diers passed to the freedom of eternity
rather than endure the misery of life
can only be traced here and there. for
most of the marks the last eight years
have obliterated. The thirty FIVE wells
which the prisoners dug with cups and
spoons remain as they were left. And
the wonderful spring. which was discoy
cred one morning after a thunder storm,
e wing down the hill side. still yield It's
sweet, pure water as freely now as then.
The cemetery with its thirteen t. usand
graves, is on the slope of a bea al hill.
Over the quiet spot young trees give the
cool shade which would have been SO
gratefully sought by the poor fellows
whose lives were ended under the scorch-
inl sun.

The Presidents Salary.

The committee has reported fsvorably
on the bill to increase the President sal
airy SO that he shall receive $4,000 q
year after the 4th of March next. The
law fixing the salary at $25 .0C0 a year
was passed the last days of Washing ton s
first term, we believe, February 10. 1893,
to 60 into effect March 4th, the safe
year.
There has been great change during
the eighty years that have passed. We
have nearly three times the number OF
States aud over thirteen times the num
Der oil inhabitants we had then. The
expense OF living has increased four fold.
The salaries of all. or nearly al other Of
icers have been raised and waves every
where have advanced. There are some
county and city officers who receive a
larger compensation than the President.
There are many people who think that
the President should be paid salary
sufficient to allow him to extend hospi-
talities to visitors, citizens and for igners,
anc have enough left to support him
comfortably. Probably Congress takes
this view of the case, and will pass the
hill - State ,IOurD0Z

AN IMMENSE TIMBER REGION.
The Timber Region Around and About
Puget Sound.

Hon. William A. Howard, of Grand
Rapids, last week delivered lecture in
that city on his recent western trip.
The following extract from the lecture
gives some idea of the timber region
around and about Puget Sound
There is more lumber around Puget
Sound than [ ever saw before. There
i. one channel called Hoods Channel
that seems to run from Port townsend,
60 or 70 miles toward the Columbia,
River, and perhaps not averaging over
half mile wide, and if one-halt of what
people said about the timber growing
there was true, and is was here in this
market, it would build the Northern
Pacific Road. The timber is fir and
pine. There are three kinds, the white,
yellow, and the red. the red predomina-
ting. 1t has c coarse grain, more like
hemlock, but is free from knots. and the
wood between the seams, that separates
the layers, Is of red color, and soft.
This kind of tree grows to an enormous
size Indeed, all that the timber thieves
there think of, and exert their ingenuity
for, Is to find trees small enough to
handle to advantage, not liking to Crap
pie with the big ones. We went through
\ portion of this forest when We went to
olympia ny stage. auu lt WAS FeFy rare
to find tree as small as three feet at the
butt. They were from five to six, seven,
eight. and sometimes nine and ten feet
through at the butt, and marvelously tall,
some two hundred feet high.
What would you say if [ stated that
l saw tree that would make an amount
of lumber more than the average for five
acres in Michigan? Every one that
knows pine lumber lands in Michigan
knows that 10000 feet is more than an
average. taking the whole of the pine
lands of the state perhaps 600 would
be the fair average At 10000. five
acres would have SO, 900 feet. Now sup
pose We take a tree ten feet through
that ought to square six feet. A piece
OF square timber oDe foot in length would
contain 80 cubic feet, Or of board meas
ure 432 feet. Suppose you went on In
that way until you had worked up 200
feet, yol would have 200 times 432 feet.
