social fe the eud Of all things After this the civic
bond is, by common consent, broken up. The Mayor
and Council supposed to provide for the safety Of
the State House. and to keep all stray quadrupeds off
the Common. Even this is matter Of faith rather than
of sight. II is not known how many cruises they take

their allowance for the Holsters ice spirits etc., which
are necessary Keep them alive through the Summer
months. Doubtless they have their reward but
whether they do their work, neither you nor shall

And II our, yours aIso DO VIC not cut il up and
fling il to you ia small pieces every Summer But be-
tween this and that there is great gulf fixed only we
can cross it BY the slender bridge OF patience. Packing
must come ii-s.the crowdug Of life and its appliances
into 60 many boxes of portable size. Would that the
primeval ark waited at the door, into which knives
and forks might walk in pairs with spoons, glass aud
china following iu regular order the very dinners Of
the Summer entering meekly by the same door legs

you think that thoFe elegant young women who wait
upon our table, &c, would mount an express wagon
Certainly not. We rememb once requesting them to

which we hed agLast. Such scene we never could
bear again. Afer "A mOmeut's thought, we motion
