E.E.

It should appear that Mr. Sawin found the actual feast curiously the reverse of the bill of fare advertised in Faneuil Hall and other places.  His primary object seems to have been the making of his fortune. Quaerenda pecunia primum, virtus post nummos.  He hoisted sail for Eldorado, and shipwrecked on Point Tribulation. Quid, non mortalia pectora cogis, auri sacra fames? The speculation has sometimes crossed my mind, in that dreary interval of drought which intervenes between quarterly stipendiary showers, that Providence, by the creation of a money-tree, might have simplified wonderfully the sometimes perplexing problem of human life.  We read of bread-trees, the butter for which lies ready-churned in Irish bogs.  Milk-trees we are assured of in South America, and stout Sir John Hawkins testifies to water-trees in the Canaries.  Boot-trees bear abundantly in Lynn and elsewhere; and I have seen, in the entries of the wealthy, hat-trees with a fair show of fruit.  A family-tree I once cultivated myself, and found therefrom but a scanty yield, and that quite tasteless and innutritious.  Of trees bearing men we are not without examples; as those in the park of Louis the Eleventh of France.  Who has forgotten, moreover, that olive-tree, growing in the Athenian’s back-garden, with its strange uxorious crop, for the general propagation of which, as of a new and precious variety, the philosopher Diogenes, hitherto uninterested in arboriculture, was so zealous?  In the sylva of our own Southern States, the females of my family have called my attention to the china-tree.  Not to multiply examples, I will barely add to my list the birch-tree, in the smaller branches of which has been implanted so miraculous a virtue for communicating the Latin and Greek languages, and which may well, therefore, be classed among the trees producing necessaries of life,—­venerabile donum fatalis virgae.  That money-trees existed in the golden age there want not prevalent reasons for our believing.  For does not the old proverb,
