UMBRELLA makers will do well to keep
their eyes on wood-cptters, for there seems
very little doubt that when trees fall in
large numbers the rain refuses to follow
their example. A melancholy account Of
the island Of Santa Cruz, in the West In
dies, is given by the Bulletin ofthe Terrey
(American) Botanical Club. This island
is said to have been a garden Of freshness,
beauty, and fertility twenty years ago !;
it was covered with woods, trees were
everywhere abundant, AN rains protuse and
frequent. The recent visit Of a gentleman
who had known the island in its PALMER
days revealed q lamentabIe change, one
fourth of the island having become an ut
ter desert. The forests and trees bad been
cut away, r~ainfalls had ceased, and the
process of desiccation beginning at one
end of the island had advanced gradually
and irresistibly upon the land, until for
seven miles it had become as dry and bar
rem as the seashore. Houses and pIan'a-
tons had been abandoned, and the adj
vance of desolation was watched by the
people, wholly unable to prevent it, but
knowing almost TO a certainty that the
time must come whentheir own babitations,
their gardens, and fresh fields will be apart
of the waste. Indeed, the whole island
seems doomed to become a desert. This
sad result is owing entirely, according to
the belief of the inhabitants, to the des-
t%ruction of the trees upon the island some
years ago.-FYom the Pail Null Gazctcc
