In oin- native woods, it often rises more than eighty feet in height, and fre- quently upwards of four feet in diameter; and there is little doubt but, if cultivated, and judi-i ciously treaterl, it would reach a size little inferior, if not equal, to the European species. Its body is straight, uniform, and surmounted with an ample and tufted summit. In winter, it is readily recognized by the robust appear- ance of the trunk and branches, and by the dark-brown colour of the bark on the shoots
