now CHANCE MADE A MARINE
PICTURE.

The frost-work representations on the
window-pane, says the Belfast (Me.) Aqe,
Of trees, castles, landscapes, and common
scenes-familiar phenomena az they are
always excite wonder, and often cause one
to ponder on the mysterious chance which
makes these pictures in the regular outline
of t. careful design. But the ephemeral
frost is not the only material employed by
the unseen artist, as witness marine view
on wood which can be seen at Mr.. Calvin
Herveys jewelry store. It hooks like an
old oil painting; no one would for a mo-
ment suppose that it Was chance picture,
but such it nearly is. 1t was discovered
recently by Mr.. Heryey when he had the
partitions removed from drawer which he
has used to keep tools in for twenty five
years. The scratching of the implements
as they ratified around in the drawer, the
action of the oil which mingled with the
rust turned green. the dust and CRIME of
quarter of a century, all had combined to
paint on these pine board partitions toier
ably good sketch. in dull colors, of the
ocean with three vessels sailing on its
bosom: and in the distance headland with
lighthouse. Mr.. Hervey has had the pic
t1,rc framed in gilt, and it hangs over his
repairing bench ready for the close inspec-
tion of doubling Thomases, or any one

THE MILK OK TEE COW TREE,

No tree aroused the imagination of Hum
boldt 30 keonly as the Brox'man, galactoden-
d'on, or, Pulo de iecbe, or COW tree, which
grows upon the slopes OF the Cordilleras of
Venezuela. AS the nutritious juice of this
tree is allied very closely 10 the rubber tree
Of Brazil-and, indeed, may yet come to
supply rubber to the European markets.
the following account of its composition,
communicated to the French Academy of
Sciences by NJ. Boussingault, may not be
without interest. The COW tree grows to a
height of from Is to 90 metres; its leaves
are oblong, alternate, and terminated by
points. The creamy juice is obtained by
cutting into the inner bark 1t is used by
the natives in place of cows milk The
analysis of 100 parts of the milk, contain.
ing ~ parts Of mixed matter, is as follows.
Wax and saponaeeous matter, 352; su-
gary substances, rs; caseine, albumen, 1T;
earths, alkalies, phosphates, O.5; indeter-
inmate substances, is; water, 5s.O-1O0.O,
The cream of the COW, according to an
analysis Of NJ. Jeannier, contains:
Butter, s4s; milk sugar, 40; caseine and
phosphate, 3.5; water, 5s,2-lO0.O.
1t will be observed that wax appears in
the vegetable milk in about the same pro-
portion as butter In the animal.
