The question of poisoning by the
G,lanthus tree has been many times dis
cussed, but never settled by scientific
lesearch and experiments. A case was
reported few days ago to the New Ha-
ven Board Of Health. The case is thus
described: "The victim Is girl Of
twenty, and claims to have been poi
soned while lying on lounge near an
open window and looking at the tree,
distant some four yards. The erup-
tions nearly closed one eye and cov-
cred one side of her face and body.
This side was uppermost. The side
she was lying on was not affected. Reg
ularly every time the tree flowers she
breaks out, and some times the eruption
takes place when the leaves are shoot
ing. The odor of the tree is not stronger
than usual. The patient is not feVerish,
and has no increased pulsation. Her
temper is not affected, and she has a
good appetite. The irritation is only
on the surface, and she has no other
symptom Of poisoning" Professor
Brewer, in the course OF the discus
sion which followed, said that, as a
rule, persons once poisoned by a plant
Or tree were ever afterwards especially
sensitive to it. He had seen in the
newspapers cases Of poisoning by the
ailanthus tree, but had never known OF
a case In his own experience. The tree
had existed in England about one hun.
nred and thirty years, and in France
one hundred and twenty years. 1t has
existed in this country tor long time
and thirty or forty years ago was spfeaC
by the desire for quick-srowing tree
to take the place Of the elm, which wal

while he wept out his welcome, Presi-bO-

Savannah News, Dem: If Mr.. Hayes,
an avowed republican, is so welcome to the
colored people through his liberal policy,
how much more welcome would have been
president-elect Tilden, the representative Oi
the party which originated that policy

New YOlk Herald, Ind: Mr. Hayes
humor when he attempts to be humorous, is
clumsy and sometimes grOtesque, and, ex-
cept as an evidence of his good nature and
kindly feelings, it is better calculated to pro-
woke ridieule than to inspire respect. But
when he speaks seriously and earnestly, as
he has so often done in Tie south, the un-
affected generosity of his sentiments is fitted
to make deep impression.
Cincinnati VolksbIatt, Ind: One may
think what one pleases of the legal title
the president; one may smile incredulOusly
at the hitherto imperfect results of his So
called ciyil-service reformi one thing, how
ever, is evident, he has succeeded in recOn>
CLING the hostile portions OF the country,
tthe north and the SOUTH; in awakening
feelings of mutual regard and renewed
friendship between them, which will be of
the most bene6cent results as well for the
political business development of the
country, if no unforeseen events or prOYOca-
tiOns come between.
New York Tribune, Rep: Seeing what
the president is and what he means, the
south comes out to meet him with rejeicings
and in the cheers that ring through the
streets of the Georgia capital, the whole
country recognizes the celebration OF a new
Union, The troubles of the south, the per
slstence in certain sections of a sulien, bitter
and reyengeful spirit, the morbid cherishing
of the Lost Cause, even the Injustice to the
cOlored people; can be traced in great meas
ure to sentimental causes. Substantial
grievances have been removed; nothing
seems to be wanting except a little healthy
stimulating and clearing of the imagination,
little more cheerfulness, confidence and
courage
