The cow tree, that botzaient curiosity of South Aurica, grows on the broad, barren plateaus of Venezuela, where it would be next to impossible eng...
And fold floient to slake one's thirst were it not for this wise provision of nature. The rap of the cow tree, as its name implies, ro- embina milk, both in leaks and tasta. A slight ba's m'a taste has been. 'reported by some pa turaliste who hace drunk of the strange, liquid; { otherwise it was said to "have the favour of rich ́ersam, and ́ to be very wholesome and¦ nourishing The tree itself frequently attaió to a height of 100 feet to 125 font, it not being, unusual do seu a trunk of this specion 70 feet de & fost, por Feqtly smooth, and without a limb. A bole bored into or a wound made in tho bark of this wonderful tree is almost immediately filled with a lacteal-like duid, which continues: to fow for some days, or until it disgulate at the month of the wond sail forms a waxy, mass, which stops further flow.
Once anly after separation from his wife did the Marquia de Caux again come in contact with bez. This was at the Mairie, where, the degree of divorce having been pronounced, it was never- sary for the disjoined couple to sign the register iu recognition of the dissolation of marrings. It is oustmary on them, as as other joyful 'occia our to give money to the poor of the arron- lissement;anilike obroniclers of Che event re- Iated that Mame. Patti, imring left her purve at home, the aptessary gold piece was with charming polifanese, presented by the or hasband. During the period of his union to Mdue. Patti, the Marquis de Canz socupted frankly his position, making a point of bo- ing present in a particular stall at asury one of his wife's operatio representations and panying her assiduously wherever she want. Ho took aine delight in music-or at least in operatic music; was familiar with the parts and aren the works included in Mamà, Patti's re- pertory, and soca acquired most of the babits of the prima danza's husband-including that of substituting, in connection with her perform ancas and triumphs, the word "wo" for "sba."

All the new words which the Chinose have of late péazs been cunpalled to coin to express the nurserons ob- jectâ in machinery, photography, telegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid advance of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are heie given in extenso. Each and every word is fully illustrated and explained, forming exerving? for stadents of a most fpafmotive nature. Botk the Court and Punti pronunciations are given "the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typography displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the size of body, thereby effecting a vast economy of apsen sohieving a clearness not previously attained, and dispensing with those vast margina wad vncant spaces which have heretofore charac terized Chinesa publications.
To illustrate the vast songs of the work-the following facts are submitted forcemdurations- Chalmers Vocabulary contains about 16.000. Chinese characters, and Medhurst's English and Chinese.
