AN EIGHTY FEET MAGNOLIA.

Those who are fond of flowers are advised to read the following article from Mobile: "This is the land of flowers, and moonlight evenings, and soft southern breezes. Here we have flowers of every variety, from the little picaroon rose to the lofty and most magnificent magnolia. The magnolia is an evergreen rising in the height of eighty feet; and often much more. The leaves are the deepest green, and so full that the branches are scarcely to be seen. Its blossom is of pure white, five or six inches in diameter, and a delicious fragrance. This magnificent tree grows in great abundance in the wood, adjoining Mobile, together with the titi, the cucumber tree, which is a species of Magnolia, bearing still larger flowers, the acacia, and many others."
