Char Gin OF England Temperance
Society.

The annual meeting Of the total
abstinence section Of this society was
held on Wednesday evening at
Exeter-hall, under the presidency Of
Lord Mount-TempIe. The large hall
was crowded on the occasion. The
chairman, in his address, said that the
hopes and expectations of the tenn
perance cause never were brighter
Or more encouraging than at the pre-
sent moment. All classes and all
professions were opening their eyes
to the delusions which existed on
that question. He remembered the
time when the difference between
medical men was merely as to the
kinds of alcoholic drinks they should
give their patients, but now that the
profession had looked dispassionately
into the question their general OPT
Mon was that in health alcohol was
of no use. 1t was only necessary
when people were i'll, and then should
be used in the smallest possible guam
tity. lis own experience had been
that since he gave up strong drinks
his brain had been clearer, his nerves
stronger, his heart lighter, and his
purse heavier. Intemperance was a
national vice. because it was promot-
ed by the licensing laws. It was
national because OF the heavy bur
dens imposed N the country by the
prisons being filled with those who
were confined there through drink,
as was also the case with the work

The Lace Bark Tree.
From the Jamaica Cleaner.

Prominent amongst the botanical
curiosities of this Island is the lace
bark tree. This tree, LagettG LjQtea-
ria, of the natural order IhymeleG-
ce@, is a native of the West Indies
ana is remarkable as having an
inner bark which when taken from
the tree in long strips and acera
ted in water yields lace Of most de-
ljcatc appearance and texture, in
LAYER upon layer. This lace, as our
readers in Jamaica are we'll aware,
is worked up into a great variety
of fancy articles. Tt is on record
that a Governor Of Jamaica pre-
scented Charles Ii. with a craya(,
friII, ard ruflcs made of it, and from
that time to this the bark has been
manufactured into dainty articles for
personal adornment or household
use.
We regret to say, however, hat
the supply gives many signs of falling
off. 1t is to be feared that the tree
Is becoming scarce. The bark is
now obtained with great difficulty
in Kingston from the country, al
though the demand for it has in
creased immensely on account of
the very successful working of the
Women's Self Help Society, by
which curiosities OF local make are
sold in large numbers. We under
stand that the Society is not able to
get anything like the quantity of
lace bark it could use, and COM
plants Of the scarcity reach US
also from other quarters. One aus
of the rarity Of the tree is said to be
the habit of stripping the saplings of
their bark in order to make whips of
it. That is simply killing the goose
which lays the golden eggs, as the
supply of bark from a full grown
tree IS of great value, while a lace
bark whip is worth next to nothing.
We hope these remarks may lead to
the discovery of sOurces of sup
ply as we'll as to the preservation or
propagation of the tree. 1t would
be Il great pity if this really wonder
fuI bark were to become a thing of
the past in Jamaica. AS a proof of
the surprise it creates in strangers,
we may mention that when some
fans made from this Iacebark were
to a gentleman at the rooms of
the Self-HeIp Society the other day,
he could hardly be persuaded that
the lace had not been wrought by
human fingers, and was afraid that
OH taking the fans away, bis friends
at home would not believe his travel
Ier's tale in connection with them.

The Sabine City company, recently
incorporated, has. for lis object the
establishment Of a city at the mouth
of Sabine Pass. They have purchased
d tract Of s400 acres Of land border
ing the pass and skirting the gulf shore
for some distance. The proposed city
has been surveyed with broad avenues
leading to the gulf and to the pass,
The latter, which is about six miles in
length, with an Average width Of about
5000 feet, and q depth ranging from
l6 to 40 feet, is calculated to furnish
safe harborage for any number of yes

when the bar Is cut away. This obstacle
Is the powerful factor preventive of
the development of that section. It is
pronounced BY the government epgin-
GERS to be abopt two miles in width,
