PHEnTHrT0M
BY RICHARD PENN SMITH.

In the year 1872, shortly after the declaration
Of war with Great Britain, made an excursion,
parity OF business. partly OF pleasure. INTO that
beautiful and romantic section Ct PENNSYLVANIA,
which lies along its north castcrn boundary
Owe morning. while pursuing my journey
heard at distance the sound Of martial music
which gradually became more distinct as as
cendrd the Blue Ridge, and seemed to proceed
from humble village, situated in the deep val
ley beneath, on the Bank of the Delaware. No
thing could exceed the splenIour Of the scene
thai lay below. The sun was Just rising; his
first beams were gradually stealing through the
break or zap IN the distant mountains which
seems to have been burst open hy the force Of
the torrent; and as they gi,,led the dark green
foliage of the wilderness, presented Il view
which sht we'll awaken the genius of art and
tn" speculations Of SCIENCE but was far too pure
to be estimated by those whose taste had been
corrupted by admiration Of the feeble skill of
man.
There are indeed throughout the globe vari-
ou> features which the most plausible theories
are scarce sufficient to account for, and among
them may truly be classri that to which we
have alluded, where the Delaware has cut its
way through the ragged bosom Of the kittatin-
nv mountain. The scene is indeed sublime,
aud while raising the eve from the smiace of
the water to the blue summit of the ridge, a
perpendicular height of twelve hundred and fif-
ty feet. the question fnrcihly occurs, was this
wonderful work the effect of An inward convul-
SION of nature, or was it occasoned by the ire
siS'Ihlr pressure Of water ages before the Euro
pam dreamed Of the existence Of western
world
After Gazing and rejecting for some time on
the wonders of nature, thus suddenly spread be
fore me, resumed my journey, The music
which sill continued. proceeded. as ! found
from band of soldiers drawn up in the main
street OF the will ge, surrounded by their friends
and families, who had evidently assembled FIR
the purpose of taking "A melancholy farewell
drscendrd the mountain by tn. circultous path,
and ro'r up to the inn before which the crowd
had gathered, hut they were all too busily en-
gag"d With their own feelings TO notice the ar
rl''i d stranger. Wives were listening to the
last injunction Of their husbands, the widowed
