pose Of securing well-selected Library

The College buildings are located at
the head of Winter street in the western
part of Delaware. The grounds are very
beautiful and though always commo-
dious have been enlarged by recent pur-
chase. During the past year the tower
which forms a prominent architectural
ornament of the new central building
has been completed.
The College, ever since its foundation
in 1858, has had rapid growth in eff
cheney, influence and prosperity and for
many years has held place among
the foremost of its cOnpeers in the prov
ince of female education. Its past and
present are auguTies of future full of
golden promise.

ERIE RAILWAY.
Luxuries of Modern Trave

kuXuFtes of Modern Travel.
The question which to-day most forcibly
presents it~elf to the prospective traveller is
not by what line can earliest reach my
estimation 2" (fOr running parallel with

same average time between their Western
and eastern termlnl(, but by which route
can CraVel with the greatest degree OF
-omfOrt and of freedom from those annoy
Inces hitherto considered inseparable from
h journey of a thousand miles or more ?'
The inquiry is easily answered. Seated in
one OF the spacious and luXuriously finish
ed DraW1ng-rOOm coaches peculiar to the
broad gauge Erie Railway, running without
change from Cincinnati, Cleveland, Dun
kirk, Buffalo and Rochester to New York,
he traveller finds lacking none of the COM
FortS and conveniences of his own home.
RoOmy seats, neat Washing and Dressing
rooms, parlors well ventilated and cool in
summer, warmed by steam in winter, and
illumed by gas when night comes, attentive
servants, and a view of The grandest OF
American scenery, all combine To trans
form the formerly slow and tedious journey
INTO an enhancing panorama the termin-
alton of which comes only too quickly to
the beholder. AT the COmpany's hotels
along the line, the traveller alights to re-
fresh the inner man-eating breakfast in
Ohio, dinner in Pennsylvania, supper in
New York, yet fartng sumptuously and
with the same regularity as if at his own
hotel or residence at home.
