in the reign of George the Second, the
Rajah of Bengal took some English prisoners
in Calcutta, and put 146 Of them into a

This place was only eighteen feet square by
sixteen feet high, and ventilation was pro-

One hundred and twenty three of the pris-

Antumnal Beauties.

Antumnal Beauties.
We always regard this as the most
pleasant of the four seasons. 1t is pro-
verbally beautiful and interesting.
Our Springs are too humid and chilly;
our Summers toe hot and dusty, and
our Winters too cold and tempestuous.
But Autumn, that soft twilight Of the
waning year, is ever delightfully."- tenn
perate and agreeable. Nothing can be
more rich and splendid than the varie-
gated mantles which our forests put on,
after throwing off the light drapery of
Summer. This is the only proper sea-
son in which one truly enjoys, in all its
maturity of luxurious loneliness, an ex-
cursion into the country.
Autumn now throws her many-tinted
robes over our landscapes, unequalled
by the richest drapery which natures
wardrobe can furnish in any part of the
world. We read of Italian skies and
tropical evergreens, and often long to
visit those regions where the birds have
"no sorrow in their song, no winter in
their year" But where can we find
such an assemblage of beauties as is
displayed, at this moment, in the groves
and forests .f our native State7 Europe
and Asia may be explored in vain. 10
them has prodigal nature given Springs
like Eden, Summers of plenty, and Win
tiers of mildness. To the land of our
nativity alone has she given Autumns
of unrivalled beauty and abundance.
