LETTER VIL Cnhivation of trees~-Nahant robbeit of its wood for • fuet — Robert Page preeented for *8ennge eaille* with wood on Sunday — Order of the town for clearing the land — Considerat ion» concerning Nahi^nt ; ita , patt and present uses, its growth as a place of resort. You could not but have remarked the fact stated^ that in 1680, Nahant was well covered with for- est trees, of various kinds, which since that time have all been destroyed. There are now but few trees of any age on the Pen...insula, and those are principally willows. Efforts have been re- peatedly made in years past, to rear trees of ev- ery description on Nahant, which so far, except- ing in relation to the Balm ot Gilead,. have prov- ed unsuccessful. Of thi^ last description, Mr Tudor has raised a great number, and they have been set out along the road and over the penin- sula very generally. They have thrived pretty well so far, and seem to atand the winter and winds very successfully. Nahant was robbed of its wood, probably a» the islands in Boston Harbor were, — for fire- wood.
