Whe is there with so little sense of graeeand uty ax not to like evergreens, especially at season of the year when their dark, green, iathery spray gives life and freshness to the jutry Iandseapes’ There is such an “irre- essible’’ vitality about them—sneh an in- te vigor snd power of resisting the lowest mperature in their apparently delicate leaf- ie. thatev@n a few seattered pines. cedars, hen n 2 wood of decidious trees, are ‘o give a sense of life and animation to scene. ‘Those whe walk in the woods only in sum- er lose much of the beauty of nature.

Evergreens are so ornamental, and such a elter from high winds, that it is surprising o few of them should be found near our dwel- ngs. Most of them are easily transplanted, Bd when set in double or tr ple rows, and pperly trimmed, make living fences, imper- jous to wind and animals, and of any desirx- bie bh t. The hemlock is especially adapted or this purpose, growing rapidly ‘after the rst few years, bearing to be trimmed to ul- { any extent, and after a time forming a olid wall of the richest green, almost as high ni impenetrable asthe fable hedge around be pe of the Sleeping Beauty. Mr. Geo. immerson, in his valuable report upon he trees of Massacuusetts, a work which de- tves to be illustrated in the highest style of us a companion to the new edition ot Har- sss ‘+ Insects,”’ speaks of seeing in the rounds of Dr Greene, of Mansfield, a hem- ck hedge which greatly excited his admiya- ion. It was planted to shelter the Doctor's arden from the northwest winds which swept bvera blezk plain. Mr. Emmerson thought he delicate and rare exotics which were cul- ivated under its shelter, beautiful, but the shemlock hedge much more so. A little time and trouble would enable any bue with # gurdsn similarly exposed, to forma milar scree: of evergreens.

[t is to be hoped that the time has gone by when it was considered as satisfying the very highest canons of taste to stick two solitary silver-fir trees in front of the house, looking like two sentinels on duty.with no force in the reer to fall back upon in caze of a surprise. To be sure. two trees are better than none; but it is better to have more, and to e them of a inere graceful kind than the stiff and formal fir. Those with lay] enough may bave, at little expense, whole companies and regiments of gruceful pines, hemlocks, spruces, de . grati- | fying the taste for form and color, and tem- pering the severity of our climate. — Taunton Republican. swee- Jons Raxpoiea’s Sarcasyv. — Randolph's sarcasm was always withering, and sometimes is very look, or even Siience was an ibilating necdotes toid of him are almost innumer- ad sume of them xre doubtless pure in- ventions.
