into dreamy slumber,-a regular raj
road siumber, In which we dream we are
IN Bedlam where the horrid noises RING in
In our ears till We strain to tear ourselves
away to place of quiet, but in vain, the
internal sound continues, broken only by
the yet more demoniac yell of Brakemen
calling out the stations. At this we rouse
ourself, look out of the window, when
away dashes the train, and we sink again
into the same slumber. Such is night on
the rail cars
Tickets! if you please, SIR at length
assure US that we are approaching the end
of the route; then comes long whistle,
rumbling of car wheels, and we are at
Toledo.
Here we change Immediately to the
Cleaveland and Toledo cars, and with the
word all on board are again heading
towards sunrise. Passing out of Toledo,
we cross the Maumee on a substantial
bridge of considerable length, and enter at
once low, level, swampy country, which
extends for several miles. This is a
part of the great Black Swamp so ia
NOUS in the early settlement Of that coun-
try and this, for its miserable roads. 1t is
said that the traveller would toll hard all
day, and at night could look back and see
where he started from in the morning.
This may smell little 'fshy,' but how
over that may be, that country has im.
proved very much-since then, and, Instead
of old mud roads, they have in MANY
places, the best of McA4.amized roads.
Thirty nine mills from Toledo we reach
Fremont, formerly called Lower sanduskv:
Out' In honor to the great mountaineer
changed to its present name. This is
pleasant looking village, and the centre of
a good farming district. The style of
the buildings and their surroundings indi.
Gated no inconsilerable wealth and prcs.
perity. Eight miles beyond is CLYDE, a
small scattering village which has sprung
up since the completion of the railroads.
Its proprietors, having caught the genu-
ne western fire, have digniGed it with the
itle of Railroad City'-a title that it
neekly wears. Here the Sandusky, Day.
on and Cincinnati road crosses the C. & r.
-oad. Seven miles further we come TO
Bellevue, the French for fine view'-and.
Is we think, very appropriately named-I
1t Is handsome town, from which, in
very direction, stretch away beautiful
Iistas of field and meadow, mound and
lale. We observed some charming villas.
Jet off with tasteful grounds. The farms
n this vicinity, though. apparently under
he management of skiful farmers, seem
title productive. The corn was wretch
IDLY poor. and the soil, light loan, had
apparently, by being too hardly driven,
yielded up almost its last vestige Of fer
ility. Eight miles from Bellevue is Mon
'oeville--a modest little village, SO much
SO, that it discloses but few Of its charms
% the Railroad Traveller. But here, AS we
axe leave of the c.. T. railroad, we must
,lso take leave Of our readers till anoth-
