_ Neither scientific men generally, nor theologians, desire to “ hold up. strict construc.

“that even before the era when the chan-. bet

formed, the world was inhabited by races
similar to those in existence ut the present

They have professed ts coma very near

or Trees,
&c.—We notice that a large share of the
trees and vines brought to this market have
mutilated or dried up rocte. It is reasona.
ble to say that such things will not grow as
well as those recently taken from the ground,
or those with roote well preserved. We
have found by experience that a well and
fresh roeted vine or tree is worth more for
planting than a half dozen dried up articles
} Generally the dried thing makes little growth
the first year, if it even lives. Parties purchasing such articles can put a stop to pedGling dried up trees, &c., by refusing to buy
only the beet. It is just as easy for venders
of trees to sell good us bad ones, but. while
purchasers will take the poor ertele the in_.p. dueement for peddlers to bring them to_mar—abruct the rising generation in-ell the arte of ket i too great as damuged goods are sold to

buy always the beat, and trees or vines with
dried up roots are certainly not the best.
