TRANSPLANTING TREES.
Tbe active parts of a tree are the
spongioles and the leaves. The form
er permeating the ground, ducking
therefrom water impregnated with
some of the needed materials for the
further building up of the form, car
bon and other substances in a ga/.eous
state, which are required in the struc
ture, as well as to permit the escape
ofthe water and gases after they have
performed there various offices.
To insure the highest state of health
and greatest luxuriance, it follows
that a perfect equilibrium must exist
between the leaves of a tree and its
spongioles. If the power of the spon
gioid is in excess of the leaves, new
buils, branches and leaves will be
found out to preserve the equilibrium.
If the leaves are in excess of the capa
bilities of the spongioles to supply
water and the other requisite material
taken up from the ground; they soon
wdt, shrivel and close up their pores,
and if necessary, in order to restore
the equilibrium, die, falling to the
ground, and there with their dead
bodies spread over the earth detain the
water therein, so that the spongioles
may obtain v greater supply of this
life-preserving fluid.
There are reasons and facts to support
the conclusion that electricity is the
power which causes the circulation of
the sap in vegetables. That undefined
power, called capillary attraction,
seems so inefficient to raise to the tops
of lofty trees, the enormous quantity
of water daily used and exhaled by a
large and vigorously growing tree. If
such is tlie case, the electrical condi
tion of the earth aud the atmosphere
at the time of and immediately follow
ing the transplanting of trees, must
exert a controling influence over the
degree of the check caused by the func
tions of the tree by the operation of
transplanting when it is performed
with ordinary skill and carefulness.
It is a well known fact that
the electrical current which passes
through a lightning rod is
more active, and much greater
when the earth end of the rod is ein
beded in wet ground, than when it is
in comparative dry earth, and we
know that the circulation of the sap,
in a tree having its roots in dry and
parched ground, is almost instantan
eously increased when the ground in
which the roots are etnbeded are satu
ated with water. This part, and many
others which the careful obserer may
note, tends to strengthen tlie conclu
sion that electricity is the great power
which causes the circulation of sap in
vegetable organizations.
The advantage of transplanting
trees when the ground is warmer than
tlie atmosphere is also indicated by
transplanters who are so well aware of
the benelicial effect of a spell of cool
weather at the time of and following
the transplanting of trees.
From tlie preceding will be seen the
importance of exercising a sound
judgment ou the use of the pruning
knife upon the tree at the time of
transplanting, so that the equilib
rium between the leaves aud the spon
gioles may be as little destroyed as is
possible. As the exhalation of water
from the leaves is not suspended by
uprooting tlie tree while the supply is
entirely cut oft', it follows that the
pruning should be performed before
the tree is taken up, and when this is
not practicable it should be done im
mediately after the tree has been
removed from the earth. * * *
A GREAT CATTLE SALE.
A communication from Utica, ou
the 10th inst., to the N»w York pa
pers, says: " The most wonderful sale
of cattle ever held has taken place at
New York Mills, three miles from
here. The herd, which was the
property of the Hon. Samuel Camp
bell, consisted largely of the Duchess
and Oxford breeds, and others close
akin, or subordinate families. This
sale drew to New York Mills represen
tative men of the shorthorn breeders
ofthe world. Not only were the great
glazing sections of Kentucky, Illinois,
Ohio, and Minnesota represented, but
the most prominent shorthorn breeders
of New England, Canada, England,
and Scotland met on common ground
when these superb specimens of the
noblest race of cattle ever bred were
brought to the auction block. The
origin of the herd was the purchase
made by Mr. Samuel Thorne, of New
York, of several animals of the Duch
ess tribe at the famous sale of Earl
Ducio in 1853, which he bought for his
father, and for Colonel Lewis G. Mor
ris. About 500 people were in attend
ance at the sale. Among the English
breeders present may be mentioned
the Right Hon. Lord Skelmersdale,
Mr. Halford, of Papillon Market Har
bour; Mr. Caltrope, Mr. Richardson,
who represents Sir C. Lampson, of
Sussex; Mr. Berwick, agent for Lord
Dunmore, but who buys for Earl Bec
tive; and Mr. Kello, agent for Mr. R.
Paviu Davis, of Horton, Gloucester
shire. The Duchess family, headed by
that noble three-year-old bull, Second
Duke of Oneida, came first in the sale,
which began punctually at one o'clock.
He was no sooner presented than Lord
Skelmersdale offered 10,000 dollars.
This was quickly followed by otters of
11,000 dollars and 12,000 dollars, and
he was sold to Mr. Thomas J. Megib
ben, of Cynthiana, Ky. Next came
First Duchess of Oneida. The bidding
started at 15,000 dollars, and quickly
ran up to 30,000; after which bids of
100 dollars were made until she was
sold to Lord Skelmersdale for 30,000
dollars. After the tenth Duchess of
(ienevacame Into the ring. The bid
ding started at 500 dollars, ran quickly
up to 30,000 dollars, and then, by
smaller bids, to 45,000 dollars, at which
she was taken by Lord Bectlve,
through Mr. Berwick. The culmina
Los Angeles Daily Herald.
tion of the intense interest, however,
was reached in the bidding for the
Eighth Duchess of Geneva, which was
sold to Mr. Pavin Davis, of Glouces
tershire, England, for the unpreceden
ted sum of 40,000 dollars. After this
eleven cows of the Duchess family
sold for 238,000 dollars, an average of
over 21,701) dollars. Of these six went
to England at a cost of 147,000 dollars,
and five remain here at a cost of 91,
--700 dollars. There were in all 111 an
imals presented. The Hum realised
was 880,890 dollars."
Wintering in California.
The trains arriving from the East
are all crowded with passengers, the
inward traffic being considerably in
excess of that during the summer
months. Each train has four or five
sleeping cars iv its list, and of the
passengers many are well-to-do people,
who have fled the approaching snows
of the Eastern States to spend the
winter in California. One gentleman
arrived a few days since from New
York on his fifth* winter excursion to
our coast, and declares it his intention
to run away from frozen thermometers
every winter of his life. The increase
over' last Fall of Eastern visitors is
very considerable, and it is reasonable
to suppose that next year will see a yet
larger deputation from the Atlantic
Coast to the Pacific—[Call.
A Noble Sacrifice.—Among the
first who hastened to the relief of the
Shreveport sufferers was a beautiful
young lady of Philadelphia, who was
willing even to brave the terror of
death to give aid and comfort to the
helpless victims of a terrible scourge.
She was Agnes, the daughter of a Uni
ted States naval officer, deceased, and
wasladopted by S. and Agnes Arnold, of
Philadelphia, when scarcely three
years old. At Shreveport her noble
bravery and devotion gained for her
the title of Angel Agnes. One night,
while walking with a sick child in her
arms, she fell down a stairway, and
fractured her spine, and died in great
agony. Only a few days previous, her
intended husband, who had followed
her to Shreveport, died with the fever.
Both bodies will be brought to Phila
delphia.—[New York Times.
An economical pair at Springfield,
111., partook of their wedding feast,
composed of smoked herring, crackers
and cheese, spread out on the head of
a barrel. A meddlesome crowd around
the door was dispersed by the bride,
who exclaimed, "What'n thunder you
lookin' at."

University of California, 1
Department of Languages. >
Oakland. July 11. 1872. J
Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Lind
l«y .ins been a student In mv department of
the University for Aye consecutive terms, vlst:
from September, 1870, to April Bd, 1872. During
this time she studied the French, the Spanish
und the German languages, obtaining always
the highest marks for proficiency and attend
ance, her average credit mark for live terms
being 97 percent.
On entering tbe University, Miss Lindley
possessed already such knowledge of the
French and Spanish Idioms as to be able to
speak them with ease, fluency, correctness,
und a pure pronunciation.
She may now be considered thoroughly fa
miliar with the theory and nhtlosophv, as well
as with the application of these two tongues;
ai)d she may safely be recommended as a can
didate of great promise, for teaching the
French und Spanish languages.
