was to great extent broken up by
the engrossing nature of his duties
at the executive mansion and that the direct
pecuniary loss resulting therefrom and from
the subsequent i'll health caused by the long

Joshua Il. Speed was one Of Lincoln's
Oldest and most confidential friends in
his younger days, and their friendship
continued through all trials.
After The capitnlation Of General Lees

Louisville, KY, to visit Mr.. Lincoln,
and while in Washington was invited to
an informal meeting OF tae Cabinet.
The question of the disposition Of JEFF
ferson Davis and other prominent Con-
federates, after they should be captured,
was discussed, each member Of the Cab
met giving his opinion, most Of them
for hanging the traitors, or some severe
punishment. Lincoln said nothing.
Finally, Mr.. Speed, addressing the Pres
ident, said: Now, Mr.. Lincoln, you
have invited me here, and this seems TO
be free fight. have heard the opin-
ion Of your ministers, and would like 10

4 MonderfnI Tree.


Why men occasionally see sea serpents
and other snakes is plain enough; but
what is there in n Jersey cedar to ac-
count for the following from the Clinton,
Y. j., correspondent Of the Philadelphis
Times, He says;
ga farmer living near Schooley Noun
tain has greatly excited his neighborR
by an account Of q wonderful tree which
he discovered several years ago, and
which he has been Watching ever since.
lie says for three years it has gone
through the cold weather without she'd
ding leaf. 1t is maple tree, and its
sap makes very good maple sugar.
"The farmer noticed it first while fol-
lowing the trail OF fox up over the
mountain early in December, 1873 All
the other trees, even Of the same species,
were entirely bare, while this tree had
not, TO all appearances, lost a single leaf.
There were no dried leaves underneath
it, and the leaves ON the branches we're
all green. 1t was with great difficulty
that a leaf could be pulled from the
twig to which it was fastened, and a
strong breeze, which was blowing at the
time, had no effect upon the leaves. So
astonished waa the discoverer at the
phenomenon that he forgot all about the
fox he was after and the cold character
Of the day, and spent several hours ex-
amining the tree.

returned several days later with clergy
man living in the vicinity. They de-
termined TO mark several Of the leaves
and see how long they remained where

tho thing q secret and watch its progress
until spring. This they did. When
April arrived the leaves which they had
marked were just ns green and fresh as
in December, and the tree itself was not
affected in the least by the severity Of
the weather and the many windy blasts.
"The bark was tapped every week and
yielded plentiful supply Of sap ;
enough okeep both the farmers and min
iater's families in syrup all winter long.
The same has been tried ever since; not
q leaf has fallen, to the best of their be-
lief, since the day the tree was first
noticed, and the sap has flowed with the
same regularity and profusion.
Gas far as can be ascertained, there is
no cause for the mysterious vitality Of
that particular maple. There is nothing
in the sod or sub-soil to render growth
more available or make the trunk and
branches better able to stand the storms
and cold weather.
"a number u people have lately Wis.
tied the curiosity, but each one comes
away perfectly mystified. At the pres
e1t time not another tree on tho whole
mountain, with the exception Of several
evergreens near the hotels, has leaf or
it, and the trunks and branches stand out
bleak and bare. This maple is in AT
exposed spot, unprotected from thl
winds and surrounded by rocks. jus
why il is as it is battles the ingenuity o
all beholders. Even the regular Decem
ber fox hunt is cast in the shade by thi
perpetually green maple tree"
