Daring the spring of 1874 the British
Government addressed a circular to the
representatives of Great Britain in the
principal tiralwr-prodncing countries of
Europe, in the United Stntcs and Brazil,
in Cuba and Honduras, asking for in
formation as to the production and con
sumption of timber; Information desired
more particularly by the Commissioners
ot our Woods and Forests. Fifteen
questions were asked. These related to
the sorts of trees grown in each country,
the uses made of each kind, the owner
ship of forest lands, the causes of in
crease or decrease in the acretge ot for
ests, the quantity of wood cut annually,
and the amounts exported and consumed
at home. Inquiries were also made as
to the ascertained influence of forests
on local climate, rainfall, floods, etc.,
and, particularly in Switzerland, whether
any steps have lcen taken to replant the
sides of the mountains, so as to stay the
action of rain in denuding the sol
Various reports on all the foregoing
topics have now been received, and may
Ik; procured in the form ot a Parlia
mentary B'tic Book, from which we may
cull here a few brief extracts, commend
ing the work itself to the careful atten
tion of all who take an interest in forest
preservation, a subject full of importance,
not only because timlxir is indispensable
to human existence, but localise we may
point to ralestinc, to Spain, and probably
to many regions in North Africa, to
show how the gradual destruction or
forests will change the character of a
country and its inhabitants forever.
In Bohemia, during the past ten years,
a species of worm, which sceins to act
like an epidemic, has been cit using
great devastation in the forests. Tin;
entire side of a range of bills may he
seen sometimes laid bare of timber by
the inroads of this worm disease. The
diminution of forests in parts of Austria,
and more especially in Hungary, luis
been followed by baneful consequences,
such as long droughts and tremendous
winds, which fill the air with unceasing
clouds of dust and considerably increase
pulmonary diseases in towns which have
become totally unsheltered. Pusth,
Presburg and Vienna arc now perfectly
intolerable during three parts of the year
Irom this cause. At Kin dc Janeiro,
thunder storms, formerly of daily occur
rence, arc now rare; and the cause is
supposed to be the destruction of the
forests which surrounded the town.
Hence, in 1852, yellow fever visited the
place, and has never left it since, though
trees arc being busily planted in every
street. In Hesse and Baden greater pru
dence has lietn displayed, four-fifths of
the former Duchy and one-third of the
latter are wooded, and the law requires
that every thirty years land which has
once l)clongcd to the cultivation of trees
must return to its original employment
In Sweden the timber resources are im
mense; Lapland .has never been surveyed,
but is reckoned, .with the Northern
Provinces, to contain some 00,000,000
acres of forest.
Unfortunately, the unceasing and enor
mous demands for wood, especially for
charcoal, house-building, and lucifer
matches, are telling rapidly on the pro
ductive power of the forests; this fact is
of world-wide importance, for there is
hardly a maritime country, except China
and Japan, to which Swedish wood in
some form docs not find its way. At
last, in 1874, a lawjwas passed forbidiug
the felling of any trees less than 7 inches
in diameter, at 1G feet from the ground.
This statute applies only to the Bothnian
forests. If extended to all Sweden, as it
probably will be, it may greatly affect
the mining interests of Great Britain, for
it will cut off the supply of small timber
known us "pit props." In Switzerland
there is now a Sylvan Society, and great
pains arc being taken to induce people
to replant cleared and denuded mountain
slopes,'so as to prevent the damage which
floods, landslips and avalanches have of
late years so frequently inflicted.
Switzerland also has an industry that
of wood-carving which she had made
peculiarly her own, although it was not
introduced into the Bernese Obcrland
before 1815. Tjjis wood-carviug annu
ally uses up an enormous quantity of
wood of all sorts. In Cuba there are
abundant forests, which must have in
creased since 18C8,when the insurrection
broke out, for there has been very little
cutting of late years; but as we might
exj)ect, where the Spanish are concerned,
no more care is taken, .no less reckless
ness is shown, by the farmers who cut
woovi for their use in Cuba than in any
other timber-dud part of the globe.
Jjitml and Water.
To Whom It May Concern.
A point was made by Dr. J. P. New
man at Arlington on Decoration, day,
which is short and worthy the -careful
and prayerful attention ot the clercy in
at least three leading denominations. He
said : "Our gratitude to the dead is to
be manifested by perpetuating the bless
ing they secured for us, and this will lc
done by a sincere and intelligent frater
nity throughout the land; but this fra
ternization will not be a sublime fact
until the churches north and south shall
unite as before the "war, and thereby cre
ate a healthy loyal sentiment. To-day
the soldiers of both armies are in ad
vance of the churches in good fellow
ship. Oar soldier president, great in
peace as he was in war, has set the ex
ample of fraternity. Our statesmen are
more fraternal than the Christian minis
ters: Let the churches follow the teach
ings ot their King of peace, ami, the
Minion shall lire forever."

Gea. Shertiaa's Residence
After the marriage ol Gen. Sheridan
and Mfs Ruckcr, Jn Chicago, June 3d,
they went to a hotifC to live that is fixed
up in tills way: The honsc is a square
brick, two stojy and basement, and
stands alone in the center of a clipped
lawn. It is handsomely furnished in
real military style, a happy melange of
battle relics, and parlor ornaments.
Pictures of Generals adorn the walls,
French sketches in water color?, por
traits of the General, landscapes, and
bits of sky tenderly expressive of nature.
The carpets are roie color, black and
yellow. The tamboured cloths on the
round table match them An upright
piano stands closed at one side of the
further parlor. A handsome mirror in
an ebony frame reflects the double
length of the house; opening off this is
a quaint little library, sacred to commis
sions, array records-, and great volumes
cliat smell of smoke and carnage; sitk
flags, the flags of peace now, stand
furled in the corni-rs, and eoldierly ac
coutrements 11i.sh out here and there.
The hall is .like the parlor, hung with
pictures of Sheridan's ride illustrated,
and various portrait and army scenes.
Upstairs are the guest-room and the
bridal chamber, the front room in the
house, furnished in gold and blue, a pale
drab curpet with blue viney border, blue
velvet and rep furniture; lace hangings
at the three windows, with blue and gold
lambrequins, and in a small alcove u
blue draped bed, with lace triuiniinirs,
the foot draped with silk iligs, and the
1 anions sword from which the diamond
was so ruthlessly stolen, hangs above it.
Over the mantel are a group of pictures,
portraits, and fancy sketches, two being
heads of a lady well-known and esteemed
in Chicago, the beautiful wife of a mil
itary journalist, and the intimate friend
of Gen. Sheridan and his bride. A
sketch in water colors of the head and
shoulders of Napoleon III., and some
pretty French colored lithographs, illus
trative of the seasons. On the lace
draped toilet table a Ect of crimson and
gold. A superb rosewood writing stand
with plate glass mirror. On the mantel,
various large medals commemorative of
the General's victories, and a puiticularly
ugly stone god, exhumed from the ruins
of Pompeii. Over ail this is a glory and
splendor of flowers that make it like an
enchanted bower; fbiweis in antique
vases and cut glass, in silver goblets and
bouquet holders. Even the General's
silver shaving cup is crowded full of
white carnations and clusters f heli
otrope. If the young couple do not
live in magnificence here, they can at
least be very comfortable with a retinue
of colored servants to wait upon them
and an income of $20,000 a year, free of
all expense.
The War Strength or the German
Laiidwehr.
The military contributor of the Co
logne Gazette says that in the event of a
new war with France u much larger force
of landwehr will be available for service
in the field than wns the case in 1870,
when the total strength of the landwehr
troops thus employed did not exceed that
of two and a half corps d'armce. The
movable landwehr battalions can, under
the new organization, be partly attached
to the divisions and brigades of the
regular army, while the fourth field bat
talions will be available for reserve and
commissariat duty. These 148 battal
ions, which are only to be called out in
case of war or mobilization, will consist
of 2,0G1 officers and from 118,G90 to
148,290 men, with G.000 horses, thus
raising the total force of the German
army when on a war footing to 1,032
battalions, 745 ot which, under the new
increased establishment of 29 battalions
for each of the 22 corps d'armee, would
be available for service in the field. The
artillery equipment of the fourth field
battalions is already provided ; :J00 field
batteries and 54 reserve batteries arc set
apart for them, which would allow 1G
-batteries, or 90 guns, for each corps.
The writer adds that it is very probable
thai the landwehr artillery will be largely
increased. As to the yearly contingent,
that of the German army is smaller than
those of the Russian and French armies.
According to the last returns, based on
the census of 1871, the number of young
men of 20 on the lists was 502,000. Of
this number, 9G.000 had been, by mis
take, entered twice over, 42,000 had emi
grated or hat! otherwise become unavail
able, 14,250 were qualified as one year's
service men ciujalirige), 240 were-iimox-.
ally disqualified," 25.000 were "totally
unfit for service," 5,500 "not sulliciently
fit for sen-ice," 232,000 "not sufficiently
developed physically," 10,000 were ex
empted for family and other reasons, and
400 were in prison or under trial. The
original number of 502,060 men was
thus reduced to 7G.000, to which were
added 90,000 men who for various rea
sons had not joined in previous years,
making a total of 1GG.000 men. Of
these, however, the numlcr actually
taken into the service was only 145,550
viz., 1 13,050 for the army and 2,500 for
the navy.

ITEMS OF INTEREST.
Olean, N. Y-, has a clothes-pin man
ufactory, of which the Olean Timet fays:
"Monday of this week they turted out
at this factory 55 bushels of pin?. They
measure GOO to the bushel, making a total
of 33,000 clothe pins in ten hour. Mr.
Latimer ran COO pin? through the Intlic
in five minutes, and he didn't consider it
much of a day tor making clothes-pins
either. Sime may wonder where all
these clothes-pins go to and where wild.
They are as salable a3 flour. Kvery pin
made at this factory is shipped to one
firm in New Yoik. They are worth
in i ween one and two cents a dozen at
wholesale, and retail throughout the
country at five cents a dozen.'
The story of Elij-ih and the raven i
equaled by an eastern exchange, which
relates that in the town of Putnam, N.
Y., recently, a young lady, lying upon
her death bed, expressed a desire for a
boiled partridge; but her friends, know
ing that it was almost impossible to pro
cure one at this season of the year, en
deavored Ui pcmiiidc her out of the
notion by offering to obtain a squirrel.
This did not seem to Miit her, as her a
petite craved the partridge alone; and,
strange to say, during the same day a
partridge flew against the house, and
becoming disabled, was readily ciiutjhl
and cooked for the dying girl. It was
about the last of eaithly gratification
the was permitted to enjoy, as she soon
after expired.
Capt. Deight, tile inventor of a bal -loon
"sailing apparatus," by means ol
which he as-scrts that he in able to "tack
about in mid air," ascended in his war
balloon Fairy from "Wolverhampton, on
April 19, to illustrate the action of. his
apparatus lrelore making an experi
mental trip acmss the channel. The
balloon having been filled with about
30,000 feet of gas, an attempt was made
to ascend, but the power of the balloon
broke the sailing apparatus to pieces. A
second attempt was made, but the bal
loon refused to rise, and alter narrowly
escaping striking the tops of the
neighboring houses, Capt. Deight made
a quick descent in an adjacent field, lie
sustained a few slight bruises.
In one of the illustrated papers of
Berlin there is a cut of Bismarck and Von
Moltke looking from garret windows on
opposite sides of the street. The sky is
I nit ok and threatening, and in the out
lines of its rolling clouds the faces of
the Pope, Victor Emmanuel, Emperor
Joseph, McMahon, and the king of Bel
gium are discerned. AH aroun I and
beneath are the house -tops of Berlin,
each gable-peak having the figure of a
German soldier, erect, with helmet
spike and musket bayonet pointing
straight" up. Bismarck says: "Stiltrj
air; a thunder storm is gathering." Von
Moltke, gazing around, replies, "It's no
matter; the lightning reds are all in
ordsrl"
The disaster in the Holyokc church
Thursday evening recalls the burning of
the Church of Campania, at Santiago de
Chili in 1SG3. The occasion was the
celebration of the feast of the immac
ulate conception, when the sacred edifice
was illuminated by the aid of wooden
frames and lamps and caudles. The
combustible ornaments about the altar
caught, as was the case at Holyoke, from
the flare of flic illumination. Over 2,000
people perished in the flames. Of this
shocking disaster it was said "the means
of egress were utterly insufficient." The
Chilian government subsequently or
dered the edifice to be razed to the
ground. But nothing could assuage the
indignation of the people who had seen
their wives, daughters, and friends thus
needlessly sacrificed. There are many
points of similarity between these two
destructive fires which will occur to the
reader. The paraphernalia of a church
of this description are highly in flamma
ble, and when the means of exit, as at
Santiago and Holyoke, are imperfect,
the catastrophe would seem almost in
evitable. Gen. Leslie Combs, who is now in his
83d year, attended the reuuion of the
old settlers of Chillicothe, O., the other
day, and made them a speech. Without
preliminaries he plunged Into a descrip
tion of Dudley's defeat, sixty-two years
ago, which introduced him to tho town
of Chillicolhc, and in that battle he was
wounded through the shoulder, captured
by the Indians, and forced to run the
gauntlet. The man in front of him was
killed, but he went through -double
quick and did not stop to interview the
Indians. It was then, too, that he had
first seen Tcctimsch. He was one of the
500 American soldiers captured who
were about to be masacred when Tecum
sch leaped upon the walls of the fort and
by a speech sived their lives. This was
hi3 first vh.it to Chillicothe. His second
was made during the campaign of 1840,
in the interests of William Henry Har
rison. The remainder of tho- general's
speech consisted of a treatise on Boarlon
whisky, which the old settlers seemed to
consider quite as interesting as the rem
iniscences. Prof, nuxlcy delivered his first lecture
at Edinburgh university, a few. days ago,
in presence of a very large audience, ne
spoke at some length ou the structure of
the crocodile, which he regarded as tho
key to a vast number of extinct reptiles.
Archaeological facts, he said, showed
that there had' lecn a succession of
frmsof that animal from the triassic
period to the present day, the oldest
being something like the lizard.
