A mass-meeting was called together here
last nlrht by Frank @. Moon. Esq, as chair
man, and G. @. Bell, ESQ.,. was requested to

ing was briefly stated by the Chairman TO
be that an expression of the interest felt

Beal. ESQ, offered the following preamble

THE RESOLUTION.
Whereas the people of Scottsville
and vicinity desire to express their
entire sympathy with the movement
to establish railroad connection be-
tween Scottsville and the city of
Charlottesville and the railroads centring
there, and to call the attention of those
connected with the movement To the large
and valuable mineral and timber resources

agricultural advantages: therefore be 1t
Resolced, That We heartily commend the
movement, and pledge ourselves to extend
not only our sympathies, but to render
any material aid i'll our power toward the
building of the proposed road, and we ask
investigation of our mineral. timber, and

paying investment to those who build 1t.

quafnted with The history or these two trees
say that there is 10 reason why efforts 10
transplant other trees from Virginia should
not be equally successful, and thus make
plentiful in this locality one Of the handsom-
est OF the magnolia family.
In the neighborhood of Savannah, Ca, and
near New Orleans, the southern magnolia
commonly grows TO a height Of from sixty TO
eighty feet, and occasionally trees are found
the graceful and spreading submits of which
are hundred feet from the ground 1t is
one OF the handsomest trees of the south, and
when in bloom its large white flowers form a
striking contrast to the dark green foliage,
and the delightful fragrance which the flow
ers exhale fills the air for long distance.
Travellers who have seen tais royal species Of
tree for the first time in blossom declare that
it is sight never to be forgotten.
1t is said that the first specimen of the mag
nolia grandifora was introduced into Europe
in 1872, and was transplanted from the banks
of the Mississippi river to Maillardiere, about
five miles from Nantes, where it seems to have
been speedily forgotten until twenty-eight
wears later. when II. Bonami, a physician,
and also botauist Of Nantes, took notice OF
it, and at a meeting of the states of Bretagne,
in September, 1850, in Nantes, he presented a
large branch of this magnolia in flower to the
Princess Of Rohan-Chabet. Its loveliness,
both OF foliage and flower, made it SO much
talked of that Louis XIV, who had short
time before received several small trees. but
which were not thriving, sent two gardeners
to see whether the tree, which was then about
forty feet high, could not De moved to Yer
sailles, but this they found to be impractica-
BILE.
During the civil war Of La Vendee the tree
was badly mutilated, and it lost many of its
branches. A few years later it was still fur
ther damaged through the burning OF an ad-
jacent house It had not recovered from this
when, according TO its historian, q severe
winter nearly killed it. In spite Of these dis
asters the tree made another effort, with such
success that few years ago it was still alive,
with a height of between 80 and 40 feet, and
trunk four feet III circumference, and
bearing nearly 400 flowers annually
During the civil war III this country so
great. were the straits to which the Confeder-
ate army were driven for medicines, that
DR.. Francis Peyre Porcher, surgeon in charge
of the city hospitals III Charleston in 1861, was
directed by the surgeon general of the Con-
federate States to study the medicinal quail
ties of the plants and trees Of the southern
states, and in voluminous report which he
published he says of the Magnolia grandi6ora
that from it could be produced a stimulant
aromatic tonic, and that it also yielded a
volatile oil, resin and a crystalhzed substance
similar to camphor. Philadeiphia Ledger.
