Our agricultural societies and our papers keep harping on the subject of trees adapted to this locality and other topics upon which knowledge is most required, yet right iu the face of this "line upon lino and precept upon precept" tkey go and do the other thing. I have never been more tordibly impressed with this fact than when passing the beautiful lots of Mr. Howard Ruth-bone on comer of 5th avenue and Rural street a few days since I saw a whole row of box elder trees set out for street trees, of all our native trees one of the nearest worthless for this purpose.

The following manifesto will appear in the Call to-morrow morning protection of the United States is relied upon, the United States must exercise such control as will enable this country protect its national interests, and maintain the rights of those hose private capital is embarked in the work.

An inler-oceauic canal across the Amer ican Isthmus will essentially change the eoeraDhical relations between the At lantic and Pacific coasts of Novia Scotia and between Novia Scotia and the rest of the world. It will be the great ocean thoroughfare between our Atlantic and Pacific shores, and virtually a part of the coach line of the United States; our merely commercial interest it is great- than that ot all other countries. While its relations lo our power and proserity as a nation, our means of defense, our unity, peace and safety arc matters or paramount consideration to the people of the States, as no other great power would, under similar circumstances, fail to assert rightful con trol over a work so closely and vitally affecting its interest and welfare. Without urging further grounds of my opin ion, I repeat, in conclusion, that it is the right and duty of the United States to assert and maintain such supervision and authority over any inter oceanic canal across the isthmus that connects North aud South America as will protect our own national interests, in is 1 am quite sure will be fouud not only com-natible with, but the promotion of inter est and most permanent advantage to commerce and civii.zalion.
