A WESTERN METROPOLIS.

 

The City of Chicago as Seen by an Occasmnal
Correspondent of the Gazette.

Caroaeo, October 24,1883. ~11: order
to fully appreciate the wonderful growth
of our western country, its resources, in-
dustries and ambitions, it is necessary to
visit this city, the depot for the agricul-

' turai products of the immense states and
l'erritorics surrounding it. Chicago is a
marvel. It is the outcome of American
energy and enterprise, and more than any ,
other city in our Union, shows thc strong
p link; of American character. New York,
Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore are,
more or '1e'ss.: 'tl10 optgrowth iofi foreign

foreigners) and'rn their commorcial and

vast commercial interests be 11g purely in
land and comprising only the products of
American states and territories. Its feed-
ers are exhaustless, the State of Kansas
alone sending supplies of cattle and grain
that would seem sufficient to feed half
the inhabitants of the globe, and on this
little stream, the Chicago river. which
was formerly a more water course, are
continually arriving and departing, crafts
of all kinds and description, heavily

Next question:

POISONOUS PLANTS.

It is important that all who ramble in
the woods should be able to identify the
poisonous plants; not only _that' they may
a'void them, but that they may feel secure
when such plants are near them.

The inflammation caused by the poison
ivy (Rims Wadi-071) and the poison
dogwood (R. semis) resembles eryslpe'llis'.
but it_ is not dangerous. It yields grad
ually to a wash of a weak soldtion
_oi sugar of lead. There. is]. s- popu-
lar belief that if one has suffered an at-
tack from it be Is rendered more liable to
be affected by any future exposu're to the
banefui influence of the plant. I have
reason to believe this to be an error.
Some perenns are very s'us'c'epllb'le of the'
poison, while, others. are not; affected by
it at all. But I have known persons who
vverc badly poisoned 11:. their ‘ early days
who could, after becoming adults, handle
the plant with impunity. An Intelligent
farmer, who had such experience in his
own case, believed that any one who is
subject to ivy or dogwood poison might
counteract his susceptibility by frequently

haudling‘tf. glfici’clt

full of antidotes to the effects of ivy and
dogwood, and that the habit of many
plz'rscns‘of “occasionally ch'ewl'n'g theiends
of a pine twig is a preventive. The
cr-ewliig of the tender sprouts of the com-
mon pear tree is also considered a safe-
guard. I mention these notions without
professing any belief in them, but they
may be correct. If they seem insignifi-
cant remedies, because these plants have
no powerful medicinal qualities, we must
consider that the two noxious sumachs do
not manifest any properties of taste or
smell that would lead us to suspect their

deficiency of taste dclsmhll, though he
emails that the poisonous vegetables for
the most part have a decidedly nauseous.
and disagreeable fisvor. , ,

But as thesé properiies of poisonous
plants do not exist in all species which
are poisonous, it is prudent for all persons
who frequent the woous, either for l'abor
or recreation, to learn how to determine
upon their own safety. Now, with re-
gard to the poison dog'woodJ may say
that it is not to be found in every- weed;
though not a rare plant. It is an elegant

There were taxes on butter, fish and fruit,

depleted the country of its capital—the spec-

profit derived from the cultivation of the
