THE RIVAL BROTHERS,
II Tale Of the Revolution by the Author Of
Hobomok
Ii is fearful tale-yet true"

Hobomok
1t is fearful tale-yet true"
twas in the middle of one of the most delight.
ful days in June, that I commenced a short
journey, which led mo through The cool, seques-
1ered forest on the enstcrn shore ot Massachu-
sets. Few things are more enchanting than to
saunter through the woods during summer s
noon. Nature, enjoying the deep tranquility of
a most voluptuous repose the gay warbling of
the birds, changed for that occasional twitter
which speaks the full enjoyment of their tiny
hearts, more plainly than the rich burst of their
morning songs the very butterflies, like gay
coqnettes weary of conquest, closing and spread
ingfheir gorgeous wings, in Ianguid indifference;
the deep shadc--the drowsy splendour man,lipg
the distant hills, all these bring TO me a deli
cious sense ofquiet existence, which no other
scene produces.
During my ride every thing tended to heiph.
ten this feeling to the utmost I could not
mistake that was in the land of my Eorefathers.
Even nature bears the aspect of those venera
bic heralds Of our freedom and time when he
had led wealth. taste and fashion through all
our favored land, has passed by these secluded
spots with religious awe, and scarcely hsusned
the antiquated scene with noiseless wirp. The
faces you meet are as title page, on which 'by
gone days are written tho children have the
reverential derneanour ofthe olden time |; the
sen breeze murmurs through the wood, with
