are in France very much used as ornamen-
tai plants in rooms, and they resist very
we'll variations of atmosphere and tenn

much grown and cultivated i'll all gardens,
the Journal d Agriculture points out that
it would be worth while to try decoctlons
of the leaves to destroy the green flies ana
other insects which in summer are so des-
tructive to plants and fruit-trees. Any
how, NJ. Ratford's observations merit that

of its peculiar coppeTy tint, has hlthelt0

But a still more formidable rival to

M. T.. s. Maumene, a distinguished French

that he has succeeded i'll making quinine

not wish to announce the details of his

nouncement is clear and distinct, and his
reputation as a philosopher is too high
for him to imperil it By a premature or

has succeeded in making artificial quinine

from bark, he has both fame and fortune

TOLEDO
George E. Prentiee's Advice

10 young man away from home,
fr1endless and forlorn In great city, the
hours Of peril are those between sunset
and bedtime; for the moon and stars see
more evil in a single hour than the sun
in its whole days circuit. The poets
visions of evening are all composed of
tender and soothing images. It brings
the wanderer to his home, the child to
his mothers arms, the OK to his stall and
the weary labOrer to MS rest. But to
the gentle-hearted youth who is thrown
upon the rocks Of the pitlless city, and
stands homeless amid a thousand homes,
the approaching evening brings with it
al aching sense Of loneliness and desola-
ton which comes down upon the spirit like
darkness upon the earth. In this mood
his best impulse becomes a snare to him;
and he is led astray because he Is social,
afectionate, sympathetic and warm
hearted. If there be young man thus
circumstanced within the sound of my
voice, let me say to him that books are
the friends Of the friendless, and libra
ry is a home of the homeless. 4 taste for
reading will alway carry you to converse
with men who will influence Y0u with their
wisdom and charm you by their wit, who
viii soothe you when fretted, refresh you
when weary, counsel you when perplexed,
and sym pathize you at all times. Evil spir-
its in the middle ages we're exercised and
driven away by bell, book and candle,
and you want but two Of these agents,
the book and the candle.

Huntino in Austria.

Hunting, as practiced by the German
and Austrian nobility, Is brutal sport.
Grown Prince Rudolph, OF Austria, in a
hunt at Kommessitz, near Prague, with
five associates, this autumn, brought in
stretch of 10 bucks, ], 1874 hares,
SO rabbits, 336 pheasants, 81 cartridges,
snipes, and one wild cat, making 1878
pieces. Evidently the royal sportmen
arevery good marksmen, or the game was
abundant, or both. But ''sport IN
German opinion, is a very different thing
from what English or Americans call
sport. In the latter countries it is con-
s1dered almost disgraceful to shoot a
bird while sitting, or hare on her form.
But in Germany, when there is a big
hunt, the game is driven into Enclosures,
from which there is no escape, and shot
down at leisure. In this way the German
princes the other day slaughtered over
400 head of deer. This occurred in
the celebrated hunting grounds IN the
forests of Werbellin, where there are
5000 or 4, 900 stays, and where, at their
rendezvous, near Castle Rubertusstock,
two subterranean passages have been cut
to bring'the brave rifemen, unseen, with
in reach of the game.

THE CLIMATIC VALUE OF FORESTS.

In a valuable paper read before an
agricultural meeting at Northampton,
Mass, on the 18th, Professor @. S. Sar-
gent pointed out the vast losses co the
country annually by forest fires. The
strongest point in his paper-on the per-
manent damage done by these fres-is
that they destroy not only the growing
wood, but the fertility Of the soil itself. 4"
As this is the season for legislation, it is
timely to press on Legislators the neces-
sity for revising existing enactments to
better secure the wasted forests from the
wholesale confagratlons to which they
are every year exposed. In a recent
article, Professor Sargent takes the
ground that ''forests do not produce
rain; rain produces the forests, and with
out certain amount of rain they can
not exist" Rainfall may not be direct
" produced in large quantities by the
condensation of atmospheric moisture
caused by the cloud-chilling forest; but
the indirect agency of the timbered land

RObberieSs

The office of Long John Wentworth, the
sage of Chicago, was entered by thieves re-
Gently. They secured a large tin box from the
vault containing $4,000 in registered United
States bonds, besides deeds and mortgages
representing a large amount. There were also
in the box letters from Clay, Calhoun and
other public men, and documents OF great his
torical value. The thief was afterwards cap
tured with the box. The bonds were missing
however, and payment of them has been
stopped.
Conklin Bros store, On Broadway, New York
City, was entered by thieves and relieved Of
$4,000 worth Of silk goods on the night of the
18th.
Burglars obtained diamonds valued at 50, 500
from the residence Of D. Shay, in Eighty
fourth Street, New York.
On the 18th inst, a stranger entered Mills
jewelry store at Cleveland O., and asked the
proprietor to supply his watch with a new
spring. While Mr.. Mills was busy with the
time-piece the man appropriated bag filed
with diamond jewelry valued at $4,000 and
left the store The loss was not discovered
until the thief had ample time to make his es-
cape from the city.
The Edwards County Bank, at Kinsley, Kan
sas, was entered on the evening of the 9Th
inst, while the cashier was at supper, and de-
spoiled of $4,000. ...
