Another error In the application O
names in noticeable in the vegetable world
This is to the so-called sycamore.
The true sycamore-acer pseudo platan
tus-grows only in Eoglaud, or, at most
the British Isles. Our tres-palsntus &C
cidentalis-should be called ~buttonwood
The true sycamore is as worthless as buck
eye or horse chestnut.
Another error ia held regarding the Vir
ginia creeper-smpelopsis cirque folium-
that grows 8 sbundantly along our fence
and in our forests. 1t is beautiful plant
and perfectly harmless. It can be trained
over stone or brick walls, over windows
doors, l~attiees or srbors, so as to give
most pleasing effect; but most people thinl
it is poisonous.
They mistake 1t for the poison ivy
Ihus toxieodendron-which also grow
abundantly throughout the country. Tn,
beautiful Virginia creeper, or American
ivy, grows plentifully along the Missouri
river bluffs and along old fence rows O,

poison ivy has only three leaflets. Tn,
creeper is O dark rich green, and in an

Now, let us see how the internal system

foreign one. All the surplus that is over
the home demand goes to Europe, where

comes in contact with the lowest form Of
pauper labor known to the world. How
Is il when he comes 10 buy? Il is protec-
ton. Every article Of protection, every
material that goes to give him shelter, all
that is necessary TO carry on his work, Is
increased as to price to twice or thrice its

Small wonder that the moor man stands
aghast in the midst Of his overtilled fields,
and sees the very ground slipping from
beneath him, as year by year this fearful
abuse goes on. To meet his loans he Dor
rows money on mortgage in the vain hope
that the next years crop may prove more

every morning to the fact that his prison
grew smaller by the disappearance of q

AS remedy for Whooping Cough,

found that it will flourish even where
a pail of smoke is thick endnsh I'd

to these valuable if not wonderful
characteristics, it is regarded MS an
anti-malarial tree because of its great
capacity for absorbing water from the
soil. Mr.. Smith has named it the
american eucalyptus" and has used
it most extensively iii the lower purs
tions Of ile tit55 and has giFen Maby
thousands OF it for planting on those
sections of the Potomac flats which
have been reclaimed.
The Tree Commission have also dis
covered Il method of c%ultivating anoth-
er tree, which will flourish in Western
cities in spite OF smoke. hut which has

of the disagreeablc odor given out
when it is in bloom: this is the allan

The Vienna papers give the following
particulars Of the expenses incurred at
Milan by the emperor of Brazil during
his recent illness. His majesty's hotel
bill amounted to 1, 00Df. per day, but in
consequence of his illness other visitors
had to leave, so that he should not be
disturbed. This, together with certain
Items, doubled the hotel charges and made
them amount to about 2,0Oof. per day.
The total sum was about 65, 000f. for
forty-tive days. The Brazilian emperor
further presented his host with Il gold
snuff box md n decoration. The ice
ordered for the imperial patient cost l0Of.
a day. Telegraphing to Rio de Jareiroi
sometimes to the extent of 3,O0Of. OF
4,000f. a day, came to 80, 000f. The en-
peror's French physician received for two
trips to Milan 40, 000f. His two Italian
doctors were paid 1, 20Of. a day. Then
Dom Pedro had to give a large number of
fees and 10 contribute to numerous char

The Railways Of Greece.

-@--~
Tho railways Of Greece are II well
come convenience. and as yet they do
not tear the landscape, like some of
onrs in the White mountains. They
are narrow gauge, laid with iron bands
instead of wooden ties, running up hill
and down; when the grade would be
too steep they make long dctours to
avoid deep cuts or high embellishments.
Only the road from Golintl, to Mcgara
is cut ont of the rock; and this may
easily be forgiven, since the view from
ii, upon and across the Saronic gulf to
tl1c islands and Pelopennesus, is one of
the most charming in Greece. The
trains run slowly and quietly. The
ears are partly on the American pat
tern, partly on that of the continental
railway, They have three "cInsscs,"
but must allow Il passage within the
ears from one end of the train to the
other. Some compartments are large,
with seats along tho side. The railway
is still Il marvel to the people. who
gather nj the station to watch the
trains, often with the priest WapaS) at
their head. The novelty was still at
tractive TO the officers two years ago.
-Four men ut Cornith busted themselves
with my ~valise, weighed it, made ont a

The fee WAS two cents. They were too

agent, who was also baggage-mastcr
and s%witchman, had his unused pen
ellis, pens, and blotters in the neatcst
order, and vas n proud and happy

of the approach, of the train, and raised
his lantern as a signal to the engineer.
