Hood. 'I'ho ling-Jy- The cactus family are remarkable for their 'power of withstanding drought. crowing as they do in a climate that is for a great part of the year almost dee- titute or water. and being found as they are on arid soils and bare rocks some 0! them are, notwithstanding all this. reli- reeented as containing a store of whole- some juice of which both men and eat- tie avail themselves. But perhaps the most remarkable or all is a plant not properly a cactus, but in some re. specie similar, called the A83" 0" American Aloe; and another species. the Mexican variety. or Masuev plant. being the same as cultivated in our eona aervatorlee under the name 01 Century plant. The Mexican variety grows to an enormous size, and is cultivated in that country as a hedge plant. The fibres of the leaves are under the name of Maguey used (or the mAnutacture of thread. twine. ropes. etc" but its prin- cipal value is for the juice. which yields sugar, and which, when diluted with water and subjected to tour or live daya' iermentntion, becomes an agreeâ€" able but intoxicating drink called Pulâ€" que. which is the national beverage of the Mexicans. This liquor is obtained by cutting or scooping out a basin in the very heart of the plant‘. into which n Juice called honey- -wnter ilows at the rate of (mm {our to eight quarts A day, according to the size of the plant. and continues to flow. according to our nc- I count.
