ROsEMOST IN RAPPAHANNOCK.

A happy chance brought me to Rose

min Liilard, esq the brother OF the deceased
S,ila LilIard, 80 we'll known as q merchant
10 Na,chrz, aud as a planter IN the Parish
of Concnrdis. His farm is near the Laure!
Mills, Rappabannock County, in q vale be-
tween two celebrated mountains. one called
Castle mountain, ard the other Battle u;o4n'
tain. There is a Legend that giants, IN early
times lived on Castle mountain, and as they
were represented 10 have been taller than the
majestic trees, they doubtless were unable to
hide themselves, aud thus may have been eX-
terminated ty their enemies, az none OF theni
appear to have survived the dubious aud mis-
ty age of tradition.
TDere, away down in that secluded and
mountain-guarded valley, lives, Mr.. Liilard,
With ell the independence of a god old 'ir-
ginis farmer, ''all Of the olden lime" In
that vale of pleassntness, near the base OF
the mountains, which serves as q background
to the picture, q %conieai hill is planted down
like one-half of a sphere or a bali. On tbs
stands the farm house, "Rnsemont." Graded
and flower crowned walks environ this ter
restial paradise. Near the base of tie con-
ical hill. on which is seated the family maa-
sion, a noble spring, with u volume OF water
sufficient to turn a ~mill.wheel, leaps up fresh,

brings from the fountain tie brimmi, <
