WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The case Of
the British government relative to the
schooner Sayward, seized in the Bering
sea, was taken up in the supreme court
and arguments began by representatives
of the British government. The brief

SHAPING THE TREES WHEN YOUNG.
Fig. 1 in the first cut represents a
young tree when first set out 1t grew
with single stem and few side shoots.
These were cut off as represented, so as
to form the framework of the new head.
In the course of year or two, and by
rubbing off needless shoots as they start,
the head is made to assume the form
represented by Fig. 2. BY q little yearly
attention in removing supernumerary
shoots as they start the tree is gradually
brought into the regular shape in bear
ing represented after the leaves have
fallen) shown by Fig. in the second
cut. Fig. in the second cut represents
the tree of equal age and culture, but
with no attention given it for forming
symmetrical head, distorted in shape.
In a few more years the owner will find
it necessary to cut off with the AK or saw
some of the large limbs which have
grown out Of limits or proportion, leav-
ing large wounds several inches in diam
eter, injuring the health and vigor Of
the tree and endangering decay at the
mutilated points.

Much unnatural history has been
written Of the owls, and unfortunately
most people have their ideas of them
from the poets The owl is not moping,
nor mourning, nor melancholy, neither
Is he dolorOus nor mournfat. He is
neither grave monk, nor anchorite, nor
pillared saint. Poets write by day and
owls fly by night, and doubtless Mr..
Gray and his school have their opinion
Of owls from staring at stuffed speci-
mems in glass cases, or at the birds Of
wisdom surprised in the full light II
day, when they will be seen blinking,
ogling, nodding and Kissing at each
other, very unlike representatives Of
Minerva.
Christopher North" is the only
author who has done justice to the
owls or justice TO the poets for the
matter Of that, by his denunciatiOn Of
their epithets and false images. he
knew well that the white owl never
mopes, but holds its revels through the
