dagratiOn Endled in these woods, it Il
said. is more likely TO iniure the green
sprouts only than TO take hold OF the

durable, although, it is soft and coarse

the California sequOia forest belt, where
it grows hard and Ainty, perhaps be
cause there is less rain and fog in that

future, unfortunately, as the redwood
growth is as slow as it is sure.

Franklin Pieree's Concord Home.
Boston Budget.

When Mr.. Franklin Pierce was a can
didate for the presidency the pictorial
papers OF the day, among other items,
gave a picture Of Mr.. Pierce's house at
Concord The facts were, he did not
own a house there or elsewhere. Before
his election he lived In a hired house OF
boarded his family. The house repre-
sented as his was the fine residence O
Willard Williams, with whose family he
boarded. After the expiration of his
presidential term Of Office he purchased
the tract Of land situated a mile west of
Main street, and while he Travelled in
Europe had portion of it walled and
otherwise improved. While abroad he
obtained plan for a mansion from some
European model, but it WIS found to be
too costly for his purposes and its build
ing was abandoned. On his return from
Europe he had a stable built and the
work Of eZcavating a cellar for a house
upon another plan entered UPON. But
after a while work upon the cellar
ceased, and for cause not known to the
public, the enterprise was forever aban-
dOned. The general belief was that the
chagrin arising from the obtaining and
exposure Of his original letter of sym
pathy and assurance to Jeh Davis In
favor OF the rebellion Of the southern
states was so crushing as to influence the
abandonment OF his building designs.
Mr.. Pierce was never himself before the
people Of his native state and the north
after this exposure. The authenticity Of
this letter was never denied.
