GOING INTO THE CouNrRY.-May, the beautiful
month of May, is round US and about us; and in
few weeks all the land will be covered with
buds and blossoms; and then everybody will be
thinking of going into the country to spend a
few months of the coming summer.
Yet there are few who can afford the luxury of
escaping the heat of summer in the city, and of
spending brief period of time in the country;
and it is a fact, that among those who can, there
are still fewer who know how to do it, In Eu-
rope, going into the country is an economical
movement-they live in the fields, they stroll in
the woods, and they wander around the wilds,
without form, and in the commonest garments.
In this country it is quite the reverse-those who
60 carry boxes and band-boxes for fnery and
show-of at the Springs and watering places, and
make themselves miserable in the hot and sultry
days and nights, when they might be reclining in
economical quarters, on the banks of streams,
away from the throngs of iders. What comfort
can be expected at the Springs or ON the sea
shore, and similar places, in vast hotels, with
little room, bad food, in the midst of wretched
attendance and miserable vanity? 1t is no en-
joyment of the country to spend the summer in
such places.
We hope a change will soon come over the
public taste in these matters, and that going into
the country will be different to what it has been

REFORM IN ENGLAND We may look with GER
tainty soon for some radical and necessary ye-
forms in the government and political institu-
tutions of England The recent chartist demon
stration, as our readers are aware, was a COM
parative failure; but the cry of reform has been
taken up by such men as Hume, Golden, and
others, sound practical men, who know not
he word fail. This is a subject of congratua-
ion, and omens well for the cause of popular
liberty. Some thirty or more members OF
the House Of Commons have recently enlisted
themselves under this banner, in front of whom
are Golden and Hume. and the progress which
they will make in the cause, will be closely and
and eagerly watched We may prepare to re
ceive extremely interesting and important In
telligence from that part of Europe by every arr-
val, for some time to come-inteligence of the
the course of a moral and peaceable revolution,
which will, before it ceases, accomplish all that
is necessary In the way of reform.
