I was surprised at the absence of fruit trees in the email farms where one might expect them to abound. On speak- ingot this. the reason given was that all trees are the landlord’s property; that it a‘ tenant should plant them they would sug- gest luxury and prosperity. and therefore a rise of rent; or. otherwise stated, the tenant would be fined for thus improving the value of his holding. This was betore the passing of the Land Act. which. we may hope. will put an end euch legallned hrigandage.

His late lecture tour in England and Scotland is said to have been a cdntinuous triumph. his audiences having generally been very large and always enthusiastic. While in Glasgow the Baltic, a penny paper, spoke of him as " a man of great copiousnees and strength of language. and daring force ofstatement," with “ a cool. collected and courteous man. ner." “ An educated highwayman," " a California bank robber," "a communist," “ a socialist." and other hard names that are supposed to carry with them a certain ‘ measure of contempt and to signify a cer- tain degree of outlawry or ignorance. have 1 been applied to Henry George. but his I popularity has seemed to increase with the I increase of epithets.

This man is Henry‘ George, by birth an education an American, but thoroughly imbued with cosmopolitan ideas. Henry George is in earnest. He believes he has discovered the secret of poverty advancing with progress so regu- larly and unceasingly, and his eloquence and logic have been such as to make the study of political economy a duty and a pleasure.

It is pursued in the old house of “ Ziehenkamer," already spoken of. This ancient house is said to stand on the spot where the saint was slain by her unnatural lather.

The drinking shops referred to are very freely atronized by the pa- tients, numbers 0 whom are domiciled therein. .Generalizing on the aspects of the place Dr. Tucker says! "Many it not most of the patients I saw looked neglected, oond, dirty and miserable. A number of them seemed to have no object or pur- pose in life but that of sitting near the smoky stove (it there is one, which is not always the case) of the kitchen. with noth- ingto divert the mind or break the eternal monotony of their existence. Only in one house did I find any books, and nowhere did there seem any provision made for the intellectual or other amusement of the patients. In this,“ in many other re- nnnne- -II AL- _.,, , ' Dr. Tucker inspected the hospital very thoroughly and went about among the people freely. talking with many of them. He found the dulness and monotony universal. There is nothing to occupy the time or attention of the patients but the almost enforced labor imposed upon them. which in many instances is rspugnantto their feelings and unsuitable to their mental and physical conditions. Inother respeects they are left to their own resources in the families and amongst the frequenters of the houses in which they are lodged. Their life from day to day and year to ryear-is amsre torpid existence, devoid o variety in the present and of hope in theifutnreâ€"an existence as stagnant and unwholeeome as that of the water in the dirty pools scattered all over the place. At the hospital he learned that the patients on their first coming are detained there from five to eiglg days. E,ve1ry~,V§’edn_eeday the medical ,7 ,__--_vâ€" â€" ukuu wunsu Ill nine days’ similar treatment was gone through. and it they still showed no signs of recovery they were committed to the care of some family in the neighborhood of the church which they daily attended to participate in the benefits of the prayers specially oflered on their behalf. The house is still used as of old, though not to the same extent. In addition to the medical director, who resides at the hospital. there are-{our medical assistants living in the town, and to each of these a quarter of the colony is assigned, which they are expected to Visit twice a month and personally to inspect each patient. There are, besides. six inspecting atten- dants. who are also supposed to visit each patient twice a month. Dr. George A.
