How TREES GBow.-As showing that
trees do not grow upward except by
extension of the top, correspondent of
an English horticultural journal writes !:
About twenty-five years ago, new wood
en- ratings were fixed on garden wall
in front of house in the neighborhood
where reside. The carpenter, to fasten
them more firmly, drove an iron stay
into a sycamore tree which stood in the
garden, and fastened the other end to
the rails. Assuming that the stay was
placed level, find that it is so at pres
ent, and a large excrescence has grown
over and around that part of the stay
which joins the tree. This is one proof
that a tree is not elevated bodily by the
DEVELOPMENT of the roots.

The ghost of Louis Napoleon, or what
looks strangely like the wrath OF the

Vanderbilt.

The wealth of the Vanderbilt family
has been variously estimated, and the
retlcence of the commodore himself
has admitted of little else than mere
conjecture on this point There is u
| general opinion, however, among those
who are IN position to Judge most cor
rectly that the wealth vested in Com
mOdore Vanderbilt exceeds one hun
drcd millions of dollars, and a prorni-
neBt member of the family recently
said that the "old man" was worth more
than that sum. This vast fortune was
acquired by Cornelius Vanderbilt
through hls own efforts, starting early
IN life without capital or influence. His
parents were poor, and his first money
was earned IN conveying people to and
fro In a row-boat between New York
and Staten Island. He made a laroe
amount of money in steamboatipg. bnt
the great bdlk of his wealth has beens
acquired in railroad combinations and
IN the manipulation of railroad stocks.
He is and has been all his life very
remarkable man. His self-reliance and
pluck are as natural with him as draw
ing breath, and his will and purpose in
domitable. A man of such tremendous
mental force has he been that he has
moved forward to the accomplishment
Of hls objects with a power as irresisti-
bic as one of his steamboats,. His one
purpose IN life has been the ACQUISITION
of money. To this end he has trained
his mental and physical resources with
the beeg gFstatefset gTft ft efsetfhg f1Fff fforcF a6 Ice s
has always drank moderately and lived
regularly, taking jRst the requisite
am unit of exercise always. Smoking
and whist playing are the only lndul-
pences which he has permitted him
self to any considerable degree. Every
dav he is to be seen driving on the road
with a stump of cigar between his
teeth. and until within a year past he
has had every evening some of his GRO
MES, in for a rubber at whist and TO
talk horse, a subject at which he never
tires. Latterly, however, his evenings
aave been passed very quietly. He has
alvavs been a strict man of business,
kept his own counsel, and admitted or
known no partners He never allows
the plea of affection or charity to IN
terfere with his business matters. Ap-
peals to his sy ympathy have about as
much effect rs a straw forced under the
wheels of a locomotive. He has been
well, active and in the harness all his
life. and has never tired or weakened.
He will be 80 years of age in May, and
his 60 odd wears Of constant hard work
show that he has had one of the strong
est physical constitutions ever given TO
