TIE UNITED STATES DESCRIBED By

1t is true, that Canada has some
charming scenery, which has bsen
much improved by British taste and
art the natural consequences of the
refinement and cultivation Of the in
habitants; but whenever one crosses
into the States, the country exhibits
either wild forests or naked prairies,
both of which are dangerous to travel
through, in consequence of the guam
titles of voracious animals they con-
tain. A distinguished member Of
the United States parliament inform
ed me that a railroad train last year
was attacked by a drove Of racoons
while crossing a prairie, and every
passenger destroyed. These racoons
are the terror of this wild country.

"dear father, you must think us very

particular attention TO the husband.
Still the family circle was not dis

husband concluded that BeardstOwn

arrangements to leave, and was rath.

for her also to visit her mother, and
that she would go with her brother
