A Wee p:a a: Tree. The weeping tree of the Canary Islands is one of the wonders of plant life. It is of the laurel family and rains down a copious shower of water drops from its tufted foliage. This water often collects at the foot of the tree and forms a kind of pond, from which the inhabitants of the neighborhood can supply themselves with a beverage that is absolutely fresh and pura. The water comes cut of the tree itself through innumerable little pores situated at the margLi of the leaves. It Issues from the plant as vapor during the daytime when the heat is sufficiently great to preserve it in that condition, but In the evening, when the temperature has lowered very much, a considerable quanity of it is exuded in the form of liquid drops that collect near the edges of the leaves until these members so bend down under their increasing weight, as to pass, for them, the angle of the limit of repose, when the drops tumble off on the ground below In a veritable shower.

Our NTjr. As compared with the great naval powers of Europe our fleet of war vessels is inferior numerically, while the enlisted force of the navy is hardly large enough to man the ships already In commission, or soon to be placed In active service; but the ships are unquestionably equal, and in some cases superior, to any of their kind afloat, while officers and men are second to none in the world In intelligence, courage and uavlfish and patriotic devotion to duty. tit ittsVga.
