inga Yes, sir, there could. The double
echo of that horn rolling up the great
mountain toward Junfrau as regular as
that fellow swelled and footed, is among
my most exquisite reeollections of the
Alps.
When the sound emerged from the
faring end of the concern it was bright,
wild, lightsome; fall of the air of the
hills, and delicious bit for the imagina-
ton, but when after little interval, the
mountains caught it, and handled it to

play, noticed and noticed breathlessly
that it was gradually refined and soften

musical than the proceeding one, until
when it had died away at its Hottest

amuse me at an expense of seventy FIVE

from the table with a heavy frown on bis
face. When / had finished my dinner

knife and sternly demanded of me whore

hesitation, that l was born in Alber-
male county, Va, andithat l was neph
ew of ColoLel -. He then said -
''If that Is the case, sir, you may con-

the general he was the first man he ever
voted for that he had fought against,
that the South could have never been
conquered if he-Col. Jay IIawker, l
