Serenade.

On Saturday night last Forest Hill was treated
to an agreeable surprise, in the way of an in.
strumental serenade. The gallant knights OF
the bow were nicely equipped with horse and
buggy. Who they were is a mystery to the old
folks. Perhaps the Neck Tie Party had some
thing to do with it. Be that as it may, the music
was. good. The only regret is, they did not have
their pictures taken ID

FOREST FIREs.-The news of the forest free
would seem to indicate that half the country
is ablaze. In the estimate of losses we note
that account is taken mainly of improvements
end of cut wood-of houses, barns, sawmills,
lumber, and corded f1el. These are, of course,
the losses that most strike home to the individ-
ual bat in q national sense, they arc really
the smallest item of this calamity. All these
things can be replaced. But the forests, the
hundreds and hundreds of miles of forests that
are destroyed every spring, can never be re-
placed--or at least, only after the lapse of CEN
tures. We see the result in the falling of our
streams in summer, and of destructive freshets
in the spring. The climate, too, is changing
with the waste of woodland. Fruits that
used to be plenty as grasshoppers in a meadow,
are now scarce aud of poor quality. High
winds and late fcosts work disaster. The evil
promises to effect even our national stand
ing. Oar great rivers are falling from the de-
nndaton of the land about their sources Fifty
years more of such land clearing az the last
fifty has seen, about the headwaters of the
Hudson, would make the upperrea of that
! stream unnavigable at low tide. 1t is difficult
to point out Q remedy; and yet the situation
loudly calls for one. Suoh sweeping fires are
unknown In the great forests of Germany, for
the simple reason that the upderbrushs which
acts as finder to the spark, is all cleared out.
| Of course We are too young q nation for any
| such work as that yet it is full time at least
| to begin q reform in our forest management

THE CoCKRoAcH UTILIzED.-In Russia

a favorite popular remedy for dropsy. DR..

affections accompanied with severe drOpsy,

On the let of October an expedition of Pc
culiar charac er will start from New York
around the world. It's objects are scientific
investigation and education al mprovement. It
will sail in o steamer chartered for it's use, and
will be gone about two years. The enterprise
was started in Indiana, where it has the coun-
tenance Of the Governor and men of learning.
In the company will be included scientific
faculty, headed by Prof. Burt G. Wilder, and
containing Professors from Harvard and Yale
Colleges and the Univereity of Michigan. A
regular course of instruction will be given
aboard ship, and when the different places
where the steamer will anchor are reached, the
scientific Investigation on the ground will pro-
oeed. The students taken will include both
men and women. As the fees for the two years'
trip are IS 0O0, we should imagine that the ex-
pedtion will find it difficult to get students
anou Rh to mako it successful. Besides, these
long Journeys of large parties At sea are not
unlikely to end in chickering's and animosities
which make everybody rejoice when the
Journey is over.
