The republican journals, politicians
and spellbinders who are gloating
over what they call the failure of the
democratic party in congress to car.
ry oat democratic pledges, know that
their cry is only all sound and farv.
signifying nothing. It is only 18
months since the democratic party
took complete control, for the first
time in SO years, of the government
of the United States. At that time
the heavens were dark with the
clonds of cnlminating disaster, re.
suiting from SO vears of vicious leg
islation in behalf of the few at the
expense of the many. To expect it
to overcome ana wipe away in 18
months the evil work and results of
SO years is ft palpable absurditv.
But it did do wonders, battling
bravely, manfully and loyally with
the open enemies and secret foes of
the people, and it may confidently
appeal to the people to ratify its

Man v chanters of history have been
helped out by researches among old

our own history is that made in Ed

independence achieved than the Eng.

lustrate it are interesting in the

THE ABQUB
On the Canary island stows n foun
tain tree, a tree most needed in aoae
parts of the island. It is said that the
leaves constantly distill enough water
to rnrnisn drink to every living creature
in Hiero, nature having provided this
remedy for the drought of the Uland.
Every morning near this part of the is
land a cloud or mist arises from the sea,
which the winds force against the steep
cliff on which the tree grows, and it is
rrom the mist that the tree distills the
water.
China, too, claims her remarkable
tree. This is known as the tallow tree.
so called from the fact of its produc
ing a substance like tallow, and which
serves the same purpose, is of the same
consistence, color aridsmelL On the is
land of Loo-Choo grows a tree, about the
size of a common cherry (area, which
possesses the peculiarity or changing the
color of its blossoms. At one time the
flower assume the tint of the lily, and
again shortly takes the color of the rose.
In Tibet there is a curious, tree known
as Vie tree of the thousand images. Its
leaves are covered with well defined
characters of the Tibetan alphabet. It
is of great age and the only one of its
kind known there.
The caobab tree is considered one of
the most wonderful of the vegetable
kingdom. It appears that nothing can
kill this tree; nence it reaches an aston
ishing age as well as enormous size.
The natives make a strong cord 'from
the fibers of the bark; hence the trees
are continually barked, but without
damage, as they soon put forth a new
bark. It appears impervious to fire, and
even the ax is resisted, as it continues
to grow in length while it is lying on
the ground.
In Mexico there is a plant known by
the name of palo de lecha It belongs
to the family of euphorbia. The Indians
throw the leaves into the water, and the
fish become stupefied and rise to the
surface and are then caught by the na
tives. In this case the effect of the nar
cotic soon passes off. The milk of this
plant thrown upon the fire gives out
fumes that produce nausea and head-
acne. The milk taken internally is a
deadly poison. It will produce death or
insanity, according to the size of the
dose. There is a popular belief among
the lower class in Mexico that the in
sanity of tho ex-Empress Carlotta was
caused by this poison. San Joee Mer
