I NOBLE TREE.
From the last Patent Office (Agricultu
ral) Report, we extract the description of
a noble tree recently brought over to Ameri
ca, and said to be admirably adapted to our
Southern latitude:
"The Deodar or ,India Cedar (Cedrus
Deodara) bids fair to prove a valuable ac
quisition, not only to the list of our orna
mental, but to that of our valuable timber
trees. This lofty and very graceful object
is a native of the Himalayas, Nepal, Ka
maonh and of regions as far north as Cash
mere, at elevations of from ,000 to 12,000
feet aoe thee eel oh sea, where it at
tains agreat altitude, even surpassing in
dimensions the cedar of Lebanon, rarely
falling short of a height of one hundred and
fifty feet, with a trunk thirty or more feet
in.oirumference. Its wood is described as
of first-rate quality, being compact, resinous,
highly fragrant, of a deep rich color, which
has been compared to that of a polished
brown agate. It is also of the most dura
ble nature, instances being on record where
its timber, employed in the roofs of build
ings, was found perfectly free from decay
after a period of upwards of two hundred
years; and pieces of it from the Zein-ul-1
kadal bridge, in Cashmere, proved but little
decayed, although exposed to the action.of
water for four hundred yearsd.
The loftiness and spreading branches of
this tree accord admirable well with the
description given of the cedar in Holy1
Writ, but not with the "Cedar of Lebanon"
of the present day. Its wood, which is re- 1
garded as almost incorruptible, from its
hardness and the fineness of its grain, per
haps, could be as easily wrougt as that
employed in the construction of Solomon's
Temple. The principal difficulty. with ref
erence to its being identical with the cedar
mentioned in the sacred writings, is. that
it has never been found on, nor near, Mount
Lebanon; yet it might have feirmerly grown
there in abundance, and subsequently dis
appeared, and given place to another species,
as is frequently the case in many parts of
the globe in modern times. It is regarded
by the Hindoos as a sacred tree, and, in
some places, is highly venerated, never being
--used, except to burn as incense on ocasionls
of great ceremony; but, in others, it is
employed for the purposes of construction,

MOFFATT'S LIFE PILLS
AND
PXiiE .EETX| 2X'I' .,
FREE FROM ALL MINERAL POISO S.
THE great popularity which MOFFAT'S LIFE PILLS
and P11OENIX BITTES have attained in consequence
of the extrasrdinary cures effected by their use, renders it
unnecessary for the proprietor to enter into a partlculari
analysis of their meiinal virtues or properties. Having f
been more than twenty years before the publie, and having
the united testimony of mere than THREE MILLIONS of
persons who have been restored to the enjoyment of per
'ect health by them, it is believed that their reputation as l
the Best Vegetable Medicine now before the public, l
aimits of no dispute. In almost every city and village in
the United States. there are many who are-ready to testify
to their eflieacy in resoving disease, and giving to the
whole system renewed vigor cud health.
In cases of SCROFULA, ULCERS, SCURVY or ERUP
TIONS of the skin, the operation of the LIFE MEDICINES
is truly astonishing, often removing in a few days, every
vestige of these loathsome diseases, by their purl tng
ffects on the blood. FEVER and AGUE, DYSPEPSIA,
DROPSY, PILES, and in short most all diseases. soon
yield to their curative properties. No family should be
without them, as by their timely use much suffering and
expense may be saved.
