FORECLOSURE OF MORTGAGES. The sale of real or personal property, by foreclosure of 'mortgage, lis likewise suspended in the cases embraced in paragraphs II and III, of said order No 10 as above amended, except In cases where interest money accruing subsequent to the 29th ol April, 1865, shall not have been paid before the day of sale, and all previous restrictions on such sales are revoked. Paragraph IV of the same order is modified by sub stituting the 29th day of April, 1865, for the 191b day of May 1865. . Paragraph Y of the same order is modified as follows. SUITS ON NEGRO DEBTS, All proceedings for the recovery of money on con tracts, whether under seal or by parol, the considera tion of which was the purchase of slaves made subse quent to the 1st day of January, 1863, are suspended.— Judgmentor decrees entered for such causes of action shall not be enforced. Paragraph VII of the same order is modified as 101- rect the closing of bar rooms and other places for the sale of intoxicating liquors wherever it may be neces sary in their judgement to preserve order and quiet. 5. The proceeds of all license, forleitures and fines, under the local regulations or under the provisions of military orders, will be devoted to the support of the poor, and as soon as realized will be turned over to the commissioners or overseers of the poor of the district, county, city or town in which they accured, and the commissioners or overseers will atthe end of each month report to the Provost Marshal General of the District the amount received by them during the month, specifying the names of the parties from whom it was received. 6.

To promote the speedy trial of prisoners con fined for minor offences, and diminish the cost of their maintenance, all committing magistrates will on the 15th and last days of each month, report to the judge of their county or district court all commit ments made by them during the proceeding half month, specifying the date of commitments, the names of the prisoners and the offences for which they were committed, to the end that the judges may whenever in their opinion the number of [prisoners or other con siderations of public interest call for it, hold special terms of their courts for the purpose of disposing of such cases. The additional expense of holding such special terms will be charged upon the State Treasury, and the accounts therefor will be audited and paid, as accounts of a similar character are now audited and paid, and if the salaries now paid the judges should be inadequate in view of the additional labor perform ed by them, a reasonable addition upon the proper representations through the Governor of the State, will be allowed.

And nearly everywhere, trees of all ' varieties, sizes, heights and thicknesses j abound, sometimes reaching a diameter that ! sounds incredulous to those who have never beheld them for themselves. The rangeof temperature in North Caro lina, is somewhat peculiar- and it has its effects upon our vegetable growth. The j difference in the degree of Latitude between | the Northern and Southern limits of North Carolina, is only about two degrees, or two and a half. But our mountains being the highest in the Union east of the Rocky Mountains, by several hundred feet, there is a very wide range between the coast and the mountain heights for variety of all vegeta ble growth. The difference between the coast and the mountain tops is from ten to twelve degrees; or as great as that between the Southern limit of North Carolina and tne Northern limit ofNew York. The same growth that is found in New Hampshire and New York, is found here in North Carolina. Some of the growths of our mountain districts, owing to the great ele- - vation, are found nowhere else, this side of New York. The Firs of our mountains belong proper ly to New York and other Northern lati tudes. Indeed the ascent of every hundred feet, as you go up the slopes of the Blue Ridge, affords some new variety of tree or plant, such as ferns, mosses and other forms of vegetable growth. THE PINE. We have at least six or eight varieties of this useful tree in North Carolina. It made up a large proportion of the primitive growth of the eastern part of North Carolina ; and from which the trees had been cut off and PRACTICAL BUSINESS COLLEGE ANH NATIONAL TELEGRAPHIC INSTITU IE, • ^..^x x^ unTtoru ana unaries ^tretSS ’ Baltimore, md.

The fact that this tree grew j upon worn o*ut lands, gave an unenviable reputation to the pine tree, but a very un just one. But a full grown pine, in full health and vigor, growing in Central Park in New York city, would attract almost as much attention as the India Rubber tree. The proper classification of the Pine is under the two general heads of “Long Leal” and “Short Leaf.” But there are half a doz en distinct varieties. THE LONG LEAF PINE. This variety usually goes by the name of Yellow Fine in Northern markets. The Yellow Pine really, is another and a very interior tree. It begins in the southeastern part of Virginia and extends along the At lantic coast to Florida, a tract of seven hun dred miles in length and extending some hundred or more mile from the coast.— North Carolina, enjoys its full share of this extremely valuable wood, and can well af ford. the epithet of “ tar-heel,” for the sake of the income of some two millions of dol lars per annum, from the sale of the lumber and turpentine derived from this growth.— It is of more value to us than twelve dozen National Banks. It is easily distinguished from all other Pines. Its leaves are double the length oi ordinary Pine, say ten to fifteen inches. It^cones are six to eight inches long. It grows sixty to seventy feet high, and in some situations much higher, and is from eighteen inches to three feet in diameter, occasional ly four or five feet. The trunk is straight and free from limbs most of the distance the branches forming a heavy tuft at the ^x^ auH t.hp smaller the tuft the better the tree. The seed are about the size of grains i f wheat, and readily eaten by hogs. It prefers a dry, sandy soil. The best trees are found on fertile lands. This is the tree that furnishes the best pine lumber that goes to Northern and Foreign markets, makes the “ Yellow Pine flooring” of lumber dealers. This is the turpentine bearing Pine.
