nit the cause of the phenomenon. Across the
small plain from the foot of the river extend.
ed broad, irregular chasm some fifteen OF
twenty feet deep On its edge stood the ruins
of several cottages, and above, in the face Of
the mountains was a tremendous gap like the
mouth OF an immense sluice large trees torn
up by the roots, rocks of enormous size rolled
down and jammed together among the ruins
OF the forest, appeared to indicate the passage
of some resistless flood, hut all was now dry
and from the nature of the ground, it was
clear that no liver or even streamlct could
ever have flowed in that channel The Jesuit
viewed the scene with a look expressive of
sorrow and painful recollections, which sug-
gested to me the idea that he had witnessed
some tragedy on that spot.
:" will tell you, said he, ''as wego along,
the history of the destruction of this little
plain, which, as you perceive, is of very recent
place, and was blessed with more than one
opportunity of aiIording aid or consolation to
the sufferers. Similar occurrences are not

promoters of appetite.

tomb of Juliet, sa tho stranger who yisites
vevay is shure 10 have pointed ont TO him
the site of Julia's bosquet at Clarens-the
site, say, because the monks of the great
st. Bernard, to whom the place now belongs,
are said to have cut down the trees in order
to plant vineyard on the spot. When
once, in a tone of dissapproval, mentioned
this fact to a gentleman in the neighborhood,
he shrugged his shoulders and observed, eLe
bon win vaut bien les associations" But
though good wine is an agreeable thing,
should, upon the whole prefer Julia's bosquet
to the vineyard, no matter how 1t obtained
the name, or whether the foot Of Rousseau's
fancy ever visited it or not. During our
months stay at Vevay, used frequently to
walk in the evening towards the chateau of
Chillon, and as often as we did so we had to
pass the house in which Edmund Ludlow
thsgreat English republican, spent the latter
of his life in exile. We all observed the spot
as we passed, and the recollection of his stern
and noble virtues may be said to impart sort
of sanctity to Vevay. He enjoyed breathing
the air of liberty to the last under that form
Of government which he preferred to all
others.
We now slowly skirted the end of rhe lake,
passed Chillon and Villeneuve, near where
"the blue rushing of the arrowy Rhone''
plunges into the lake. Pity that 80 singular
spot should be perpetual prey to malaria
and ague, which extend their influence as far
as Vevay, and are almost sure to assail stran-
gers on their arrival. We now turned sharp
round towards the left, passed through Aigle
and Bex, after which fell asleep and did not
wake again until we arrived at st. Maurice,
