P reservation of Forests.

From the manner in which the Ger-
mans preserve and improve their forests,
our countrymen might take a valuable
lesson. At Hohenheim this forms one of
the most important departments of study.
The pupils are instructed in the best man-
ner of preserving, propagating and im-
proving their forest trees, while at the
same time a proper estimation of the pe-
cuniary and moral value of these noble
productions of nature is instilled into their
minds, which must eventually become the
common sentiment. Our people must
give attention to this subject, sooner or
later, and every day’s neglect of this
practical science will entail upon us evils
for which years of labor will hardly make
amends. We do not as a people, appre-
ciate the value of our forests. Negli-
gently, carelessly and wantonly we are
destroying them on every side not consid-

~ criug that in them lies a mine of untold
wealth; for the time comes with every
people when they can turn their own nat-
ural productions to the most advantage-
ous use for themselves, and this law ap-
plies as firmly to the trees as tothc vari-
ous mineral ores. Yet what destruction
of the best and most valuable timber have
you and I witnessed during the past for-
ty years in Indiana ! Astatistical state-
ment of the pecuniary loss would aston-
isll the reader, to say nevhing of the less
health and domestic comfort. The con-
nection of family health, enjoyment and
comfort with a grove of prival forest trees
about the homestead, never entered the
practical heads of our fathers; and their
sons, true to the example before them,
pursue the same suicidal conrse,’ Down
come the ‘ lofty oaks and the beautiful
maple, leaving the homestead to patch
and the spring to dry up in the scorching

rays of the sun. : .

If there are exceptions here and there
you will find the value of the farm in-
creased a thousand-fold, simply‘becausc
the trees have been let alone ; and what
if they were cultivated with the proper
care 1? All along the line of the railway
in Southern Germany I saw acres and
acres of forest trees, from ten to fifteen
and perhaps twenty years old, planted in
rows as regular as corn is with us, and

all cultivated in the most scientific man-
llCl'. '

When will our people learn wisdom in
this matter? Will they heed the warn-
ing. of the Old World, listen to the admo-
nitions and counsels of science, 13nd be
prudent in good time, or will they wait
to learn it too late from their own expe-

 

rience? .We certainly who boast so free-
ly, and With good reason, of our practic-

al foresight, should take shamej to our-
selves to be surpassed in this important
matter by the Germans.

Woman’s Beauty.

It takes most women two-thirds of
their lifetime to discover that men may
be amused by, without respecting them ;
and every woman may make uphcr mind
that to be really respected, she must pos-
scss merit; she must have accomplish—
merits of mind and heart ; and there can
be no real beauty without these. If the
soul is without cultivation, without re-
finement, without taste, without the
sweetness of affection, not all the myster-
ies of art can make the face beautiful ;
and, on the other hand, it is impossible
to dim the brightness of an elegant and
polished mind ; its radiance strikes
through the encasements of deformity,and
asserts its sway over the world ‘of the af-
fcctions.

It has been my privilege to see the
most celebrated beauties that shine in
the gilded courts of fashion throughout
the world, from St. James to‘St. Peters-
burg, from Paris to India, and yet I
know of no art which can atone for de-
fect of an unpolishcd mind and an unlove-
ly heart. That charming activity of
soul, that spiritual energy, which gives
animation, grace, and living light to the
animal frame, is, after all, the real source
of woman’s beauty. It is that which
gives eloquence to the language of her
eyes, which gives the sweetest expression
to her face, and lights up her Whole per-
sound as if her very body thought.

From the ClcauelandlLeader.
Two Daughters Bmanclpated by their
Father.

In the summer of 1857, James Oldllam, a
“ free white citizen” of Coahoma county Mis-
sissippi, left his plantation near Friar'a Point
with his two beautiful daughters,one of whom
is now 12 and the other 15 years of age, for
the double purpose 0‘ emancipating and edu-
cating the girls, for they were his slaves. He
was accompanied by Miss Hattie Oldham, a
near relative, who came to assist in locating
the daughters In their new condition.
At Memphis, the younger daughter, Cyrena,
having been the pet of the family, and prefer.
ring the kuown ease of her sunny home to the
fancied trials and the dreaded restraints of
school. could not be persuaded to come any
further on thcjourney,and her kind father was
induced to permit her to return to the planta-
tion, while the balance of the party came on
and arrived at Oberlin in August.
The next day alter their arrival Mr. Oldham
was attacked with the typhoid dysentery, and
was soon reduced to a critical condition, in
which he lingered some three weeks and died
Having formed an acquaintance with Dr. R.
L. Rea of Oxford, Butler 00., Ohio, and hav-
ing great confidence in his skill as a physcian
at Mr. Oldhanl’s request, the Doctor came to
his bedside, Watched over him until death
ended his sufl'erings,aud then accompanied his
mortal remains back to his desolate home in
Mississippi.
When Mr. Oldham became convinced that
he must die, his concern for the freedom of
his youngest daughter was intense. The old
est, Emeline, was with him in Obio,_and was
therefore free ; but the younger, by lingering
amid the loved scenes of her childhood, was
exposed to be inventoricd among the other
chattels of the estate, and sold at a high price
because ofher light complexion, her beautiful
ringlets and her graceful form, and the dying
father knew it, and bitter anguish stung his
soul.
He knew, too, that the.laws of Mississippi
forbid emancipation Within her borders, and
further, that he could not by his will make
her free to be sent out of the State, nor could
he will her in trust to another for the purpose
of making her free, neither yet could he sell
her to any one for that purpose. Thus was
the dying parent beleagured on every hand
by the monstrous cruelty of the law hedging
up as it does, every way by which he might
secure freedom to his child and thus save her
from adrcadful fate. In this strait he applied
to Hon. Phil emon Bliss, of Elyria, for counsel
whose clear head and warm heart was soon
enlisted in what would seem the hopeless task
of enabling a wealthy father to free his own
child from eternal slavery.
A will was soon executed, in which the facts
of the parent’s earnest wish were clearly set
forth,‘and by the terms of which the daugh-
ters were made free, and the sum of four thou-
sand dollars bequeathed for their support and
education, and the noble Dr. Rea was appoint-
ed executor of the will.
It was also provided that the Whole of the
above sum should be expended, if necessary,
to secure the freedom of the youngest girl,
should an attempt be made to prevent it by
the heir, under the laws of Mississippi, which
wise provision, with the energy and firmness
‘of Dr. Rea, proved more than a match for
slavcholding cupidity and slaveholdiug law
as is shown in the fact that both Emeline and
Cyrens are now safe in Oberlin, where their
wants will be supplied and their education
provided for under the direction of Dr. Rea.
‘But all this has not been accomplished with
out a severe struggle,every point being warm-
ly contested by greedy heirs and wicked laws
on the one side and the determined Doctor and
righteousness on the other. For a time it
seemed almost certain that the cormorants
would succeed, and that the money as _well as
the liberty of Cyrena would be lost ; indeed,
so sure were they of success that the heirs bid
Doctor Rea a bold defiance.
At length a point was decided by the Sn-
preme Court of Mississippi‘in a case involving
some important ones in this and the contro-
versy was brought to a close by a compromise
in which Dr. Rea secured the freedom of the
girl and three thousand dollars of the money.
A few days ago Dr. Ron might have been
seen leaving the plantation of the late James
Oldham in a large canoe freighted With his
precious charge, the tender Cyreua,an unwil-
ling cxile from her childhood’s home, and ma-
king his devious way for nine miles through
recently cut gorges and eddying currents
made by the turbid waters of the Mississippi
back to Friar’s Point, where he embarked for
the purpose of reinstating these sisters in
Oberlin, the very place chosen for them by
the dying, honest slaveholder, where they can
become free, virtuous and intelligent women.

RIDING 0N aCowcarcnsa.—N.P. Willis and
others recently made an excursion over Balo
timore and Ohio railroad. Mr. Willis gives
an amusing account of a ride upon the cow-
cafcher. He says ; '

“ We had reached Martinsville, on our re-
turn—retracing in sixteen hours the four days
route of exploration, and of course travelling
at full railroad speed—When our kind ofiicial
entertainer, Prescott Smith, pointing to the
front of the engine, asked if I would like to
ride there. The thought delighted me, of
course, and I took my seat at once on the sort
of gridiron Wedge, and front of the locomotive
built for throwing to the right or left any
number of stray cattle on the track. With
the sun intensely bright, and the thermometer
all day at ninety-four degrees, my black "011
seat was not the coolest, and the glowmg ad-
miration of the Matinsburg boys, who gather-
ed around in the few minutes that I sat alone
on the cowcatcher, in front of the sultry sta-
tion-house. made it promise, at first, totbe too
warm on experience. Presently, hpWever, I
was joined by another of our charming party
to when my example had proved tempting;
and. with Prescott Smith on one side of me
and Thompson, (of the Southern Litcrary.)
on the other, I felt a little more reconciled to
the risky possibility— that of being wrped off
with my two brother authors, by any cow that
should camber the track, or, in other words,
served up to late in a literary sandwrch With
“ forced cow-cumbers.”

Well—the iron steed gave his accustomed
snort, (which it takes pretty good car-drums
to enjoy as you sit diaphragm) and off began
to rattle the fore-foot bestrided. Behind glid-
ed the streets and people of Martinsburg, and
the hot-air along with them for to our ex-
quisite delight, it grew cool enough in the
second or third minute. Smoke, cinders, and
second atmosphere, were all fanned to the
rear. With the accelerated speed, the rush
of air was a strife of unseen caresses, a my-
riad of soft fingers storking back the hair up-
on one’s temples, and pulling gently at the
corners of one’s beard, like the shampoolng
by the daughters of Eolus—(a little imagina-
tive, perhaps, but remember here were three
authors on the cow catcher !) while the hand-
kerchief with which I endeavored to blow my
nose was so forced up my nostrils as to make
me sneeze. The " sleepers” or braces across
the rail track, at first separate and distinct.
confused into a solid plank. Cow after cow
came in sight, and in the next instant had a
narrow escape of our rather-be-excnsed bosoms
—pig after pig, idem—idem flocks of sheep,
grazing horses, drunken men, and Irish chil-
dren. What a gauntlet of accidents runs a
common cow-catcher, to be sure!

. But,to be thus telegraphed in one’s hat and
boots, strangely removes some of one’s early
prejudices. The way we jumped chasms and
skimmedlponda—popped across rivers and cleft
Open hills—shot over into caverns under
mountains, and spun away on the other side
as if nothing happened—skirted precipices and
round ed bluffs—all at the same pace,and with
no manner of recognition of mortal manta
common hindrance and obstacle. Why It
emanated a“ flight of fancy 1” It was thought
travel—ghost Sighting—angel’s errand going
(or rather “ Adam’s Expreg. befm-e the fan)
-—a realization, in fact, of two of my own once
imaginative questions in an early poem.

Are ye thought rapid ? Can ye fly as far,
As instant as a thought?

To which any rider on the cow-catcher of the
Baltimgrc and Ohio would anaWer, .. Yes-

A New Question.

A case of murder was to have been tried on
Long Island last week, says the N. H.§Courier
but it was “ nailed” by the State Attorney..—
If the murder, which was by posioning,oc.
curred at all, it was on the Sound be.
tween New London and the defence would
have raised the question of jurisdiction
New York has claimed. and Connecticut has
not resisted, sjurisdlction over the Sound up
to low water mark on the the Connecticut
shore, and this claim would have been resist-
ed by T. S. Attorney Shipmau, who appeared
for the defence, who would have is en the
ground that Long Island Sound is an arm of
the sea. and that all that portion of it which
lies without the headlands of the harbor, is
not within the body of any country, and, con.
sequent! , crimes committed on it, on board
of Amer can vessels, are within the exclusive
jurisdiction of federal courts. ' ~ ~-

the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu.
tions not only suffer from scrofulous com-
plaints, but they have far less power to with-
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse—
quently, vast numbers pens' h by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature.
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which do-
cimntes the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and. indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.

One quarter of all our pcoplearescrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in-
fCCtlon. and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an alterative medicine, and in-
vrgoratc it by healthy food and exercise.
Such a mullcme we supply in

AYER’S
Compound Extract of Sarsaparills,

the most effectual remcd which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com-
blncd from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder tom the blood, and the rescue of the
system. from Its destructive consequences.
Hence It should be employed for the cure of
not only scrofula, but also those other affec-
tions which arise from it, such as Enumvn
and Sim: DISEASES, Sr. AN'rnomr’s Furs,
Rose, or Envsrrsms, Plurrss, Pusrosss.

indeed, an. Comamrs ARISING FROM VITIA-
ran on Inrons Bmon. The popular belief
In “ impurityqf the blood ” is founded in truth,
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa.
rll_1a is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
Without which sound health is impossible in
contamm' ated constitutions.
