\RLY all the Pine family are pleasing to the e3'e lor the 

 f diversity as well as the continuity of their foliage. There 

 ■" .ire somewhat o\'er a hundred species in the order, and all 

 of them of infinite importance to man, growing as some of 

 . them do in immense forests, they j'ield an unbounded supply 

 i.^.Oof timber tor various architectural purposes, being light, 

 I asiU wrought and durable. This includes all the pines, hemlocks,

 are in great demand for the masts of vessels, while other varieties 

 Meld the resinous sap from which resin, tar, pitch and turpentine

 the United States, but principall}- in rocky situations near the sea- 

 coast. Its wood is of a reddish cast, compact, fine grained, and 

 almost imperishable, so well does it resist all the processes of decay.

Yok'd in all exercise of noble aim. 

 And so through those dark gates across the wild 

 That no man knows.
