Prof Rothrock in Our Continent
No department of botany has received less at
tentlon in this country than the lichens prob
ably none would show more unexpected sur
prises than they to an earnest student.
OF all our vegetable grOwths none are slower
than they; and except in rare instances none
with less external beauty to attract attention.
Yet they are everywhere present where air and
water nourish, and earth, trees or rocks furnish

marked tendency to cOnfine themselves to par
ticular portions of the globe; these, on the other
hand, range over wide areas. have taken one
OF the least obtrusive of them from the bark of
the trees growing on lawn in Westchester.

feet up in the air, defying the elements as it
grew and multiplied on the time-worn spire of
the Strasbourg Cathedral in Southern Germany.
Within the year, the same species was sent to
me growing on human bone that lay uncovered
upon the bleak shores OF the Arctic Ocean in the
most northern part Of Alaska.
Surely organisms so widely diffused, gifted
with powers OF resistance to such extremes of
Climate, must have important uses in the gen.
eral economy of the globe Toss their spores

put give them sunshine and shower and storms
too and they will find crevice in which to start
on long enduring growth; trample them under

they might at least show what the possibilities

nObler purposes and sublimer deeds. They have
however, other functions. They act as adjutants
to fire, water and frost, aiding them in prepar-
ing the once naked rocky surfaces for the sup
port of higher forms of plant life and them
selves forming by their growth and death the
tlrst soil on which subsequent and more striking
types may flourish.
Furnishing food to man and beast, they rem

Both measures werc rejected, and the
House went into Committee Of the Whole.
The tariff fcOmmisSion bill was taken up
and Mr.. KuSsOn addressed the committee.
He advocated the passage Of the pending
proposition and spoke in favor OF pro.
tective tariff.
Mr.. Carlisle opposed the Civilian Com

demands OF the country, TO proceed i'm.

so OF Republican Senators who happened
to meet at the Capitol, discussed the prcsi.
dental tardincss with some warmth and
commented freely on what thev
regarded us iavoritism shown cor.

at this gathering that both Massachusetts
Senators had been sighted and neglected.
that the Custom House appointments in
Boston had been vacant some weeks and
though both Senators urged daily the fill.

aclion at all. One Senator remarked that
y looked TO him us though the administra.

was said that no Senators except I.opa,
