WHY THE WINTER OF 1S7l-72 WAS INJURIOUS TO

Horticultural Society contain recent report from
prominent Boston horticultursts upon this subject
The causes combining to produce the results were
the unprecedented drouths of the two preceding
Summers, enfeebling the roots and preventing
strong and vigorous growth the want Of snow and
the cold Of the Winter freezing the ground TO
an unusual depth; continued and violent winds,
causing a constant evaporation of sap which the

NICOTINE IN Observation-Disclosures by
Dr. Heubel do not confirm the alleged absence OF
nicotine from tobacco smoke on the contrary, by
condensing smoke from cigars, and washing 1t IN
water and alcohol, he obtained solution which was
capable of producing the effects of nicotine; and
he also detected its presence chemically in the form
Of tbe salrs more permanent at high temperatures.
The effect of smoking he concludes must therefore
be ascribed in part at least, TO the absorption OF
nicotine though other substances may act Win thls

WASHING

WASHINGTON, July 3. = Attorney
General Williams has delivered an
opinion in the case of Gen. Howard
He says the papers furnished him are
incomplete, in not including the bonds
of commissioner Of Freedmens Bu-
reau, and its chief officer. And in
other respects the Attorney General
differs from the opinion Of the late
Secretary Stanton, that bonds are not
required of an army officer detailed to
this duty. In response to the query
as. to what course should be pursued
in cases where considerable sums have
been taken from the treasury by the
means of forged receipts and vouchers
for bounties due colored soldiers, and
to what extent the commissioner and
chief distributing officer are RESPONSE
BILE, he says the offenders can be
proceeded against criminally and civ
lily, or against persons responsible for
their acts by the government. The
bond of ten thousand dollars required
of the commissioner from and after
Oct. 3lst, 1871, does not cover any de-
commissioner liable for the acts OF his
assistants, under the acts of 1865, but
under the joint resolution of 1867,
The commissioner is explicitly held
for all monies paid under that act, and
he is also responsible ciyily, for the
acts of his subordinates. The Attor-
ney General says: 'sThe commission.
en- Of Freedmen's Bureau Is therefore
liable for all losses Of the government
by defanlting subordinates, or other
persons employed BY him under the
joint resolution of 1867

in place Of Jesse r. Grant, deceased.

prices. Late in the day the demand
became less urgent and prices, although
not quotably lower, were weak with
