Mount Washington on horseback.
She was ten then; if she lives till
next summer she will be twenty one.

summit, where the only vegetation
that dared make an attempt to grow
was little stunted, pale green moss,
and gazed as those lifted up from
the world into limitess space.
Below, stretching outward in all
directions, lay n deep sea of clouds,
amid which lightnings were seen to
dart and writhc like gilded serpents,
and from which the thunder came
up to the ear, peal after peal. We
knew that down there rain was de-
scending in torrents; while on us
who were above the clouds shone
the sun in unobstructed and awful

sever feet in diameter two feet from

which point the first branches start

to go to the barber, who lived across

er writing home to account for his

the chief circumstances explained by
the two friends thus strangely met.
The silver coin being found in the
possession of the young man, could
only be explained by the conjecture
that when the boatswain gave him
the knife in the dark, it is probable
that as the coin was in the same
pocket it stuck between the blades
of the knife, and in this manner be
came the strongest proof against

The Utica On. W Herald says
the prospect for farmers-especially
dairymen---in that section, has not
for years been more promising
Flour, woolcn and cotton goods,
most articles the farmers have to
buy, are cheaper than they have
been before since the war; while
beef cattle, butter and cheese com
mand high prices and find ready
sale. The market is so thoroughly
cleared of cheese, on both sides OF
the water, that even Il more than
average production will not be likely
to put the prices below the highest
figure sold at during last season
while the increased number who
will turn their milk into cheese, Will
keep the supply of fbutter SO reduced
that remunerative prices are likely
to be obtained by the butter makers
The season, too, opens auspiclouslA
for the manufacture of both buttel
and cheese, as the winter has beer
such as to leave the ground in al
excellent state for the grass crop
Although the demand for cheese
making apparatus exceeds that ol
last year, there appcarsto be strong
disposition throughout the dairy re
gion of New York to return to prl-
vate dairying, instead of sending
milk to the cheese factories.
The general condition ofthlngs II
New England is pretty much tn
same as in New York, and our iaI
mcrs can look forward to season
