TEdE CANTPHOEe TREE.

One of the most useful and MAJ agnifcent
productions of the vegetable kingdom
that enriches China, and more particular
ly the provinces of King-si and Canton, is
the champion tree. This stupendous
laurel, which often adorns the banks of
the rivers, was in several places found by
Lord Amherst's embassy above fifty feet
high, with its stem twenty feet in. circum-
ference. The Chinese themselves affirm
that it sometimes attains the height of
more than three hundred feet, and cir
cumfepence greater than the extended
arms Of twenty men could embrace.
Camphor is obtained from the branches
by sleeping them, while fresh cut in wa
ter for two or three days, and then boiling
them till the gum, in the form Of a white
jelly, adheres to,a stick which is used in
constantly stirring the branches. The
fluid is. then poured into glazed vessel,
where it concretes in few hours.
To purify it the Chinese take Il quanti-
ty Of fnely-powdered earth, which they lay
at the bottom of a copper basin; over this
they place layer of camphor, and then
another layer Of earth, and so on until the
vessel is nearly filed, the last Or topmost
layer being Of earth. They cover this last
layer with leaves of plant called po no,
which seems to be species Of mcntha
(mint). They now mvert second basin.
over the first, and make it air tight by
luting. The whole is then submitted to
the action Of a regulated fire for a certain
length Of time, and then left to cool grad
ually. On separating the vessel the cam
phor is found to have sublimcd, and to
have. adhered to the upper basin. Repe-
titions Of the same process complete its re-
fnement. Besides yielding this valuable
ingredient, the camphor tree is one of the
principal timber trees of China, and is
used not only in building but in most ar
ticles of furniture. The weod is dry and of
q light color, and although light and easy
to work, is durable, and not likely to be
injured by insects.

can savage suggests solution of the In
dian problem. and incidentally of. the
tramp nuisance. There is never. any
very lengthy period in the history of the
world but what some of the nations are at
war with each other Why can't the
United States keep an open market for
foreign enlistments? 1t could be ar
ranged on such an impartial basis that
no belligerent rights of any.of the COM
batants would be infringed upon or
prejudiced. Each one could have a fair
field and no favor. 1t is not improbable
that our Government might derive great
pecuniary benefit by adopting these sug-
gestions, even to the extent of paying off
the National debt. 1t might charge an
export duty on all such enlistments.
One hundred dollars per capita would be
very readily paid by a befiigerent who
was getting the hot end of the poker
from his adversary, and perhaps even
double that sum. The whole matter
could be placed in the hands of syndi-
cate, who would only need a liberal grant
of power and percentage to insure sue
cess and give to the United States the
balance of power among the nations of
the earth. Let the subject be agitated.

Sparkling. dancing downwOid,'


Sparkling; dancing downwaid,'
Merrily hop the sands,
While the golden hours so gaily pass,
Amid rose and lily and soft green grass:
Wherefore-so eager to turn the glass,
Oh dinpled baby hands,
Glittering, flashing downward,
In the glow of the April sun,
All sweet white fingers and slly-blue eyes,
And cheeks as rosy as s~estern skies; .
Tfs pity In Youths first Paradise
, That the sands SO swiftly run.
Stealing forever downward
Gray tinging their VIRGIN gold,
Pulses still quiver, anu hearts still beat,
But the road grows hard for the tired feet;
Surely ihe sky had more warmth and heat
And the sands showed brighter of old.
Dropping drearily downward,
The evening is well nigh DER,
The brightest and best the river have crossos.
The bolt is shot, and the venture lost;
The bark on the last long wave is tossed
The glass needs to turn no more.
