Monarchs Of the Forest.

The Calaver as grove of giant trees is
the most motherly yet discovered and the
one best known. It is situated on the
Stockton and Calaveras trail to the Yose-
mite, and is distant 164 miles from San
Francisco. The number of trees of larger
size is not far from 100, with many
smaller ones on the outskirts. Most of
these have been named, and tables have
been published giving the exact height
and dimensions Of each. Here are at least
twenty five trees above $50 feetin height,
and thirty trees over 230 feet in height.
The four highest trees in the grove, and
perhaps on the American continent, are
the keystone State" "Gen. Jackson, :"
"Mother of the Forest" and "Daniel
Webster" The height of the frst-named
is 1926 feet; of the second, 319 feet; of the
third 315 feet; and of the fourth, 307
feet. A column might be filled with o
description of such like monsters as
The Husband and Wife," pair of
trees gracefully leaning against each
other, $50 feet high, and each sixty feet
in circumference; "The Hermit, j" q soil
tary specimen of great proportions; "The
Old Maid" disconsolate- looking
spinster, fifty nine feet incircumference;
"The Old Bachelor" q. rough, unkempt
old fellow, nearly 800 feet in height;
"The Beauty Of the Forest" with grace
fulfoliage and symmetrical trunk; "Uncle
Toms Cabin, in the interior Of which
twenty-five persons can be- seated com
fortably.
