szy There is summery feeling about the
woodcut of the k-adyertiscment-defled
rock, at page 694 in the June number of " OLD
AND New !" and so there is about the fanciful
story which 1t illustrates. This is called ''The
Iconoclast of Sensibility," and narrates how
Mr.. Willoughby Aspen "bonnetted" the rascal
who had painted quack names on a magnif-
icent rock, with his own paint-pot. In con-
trast, there is wintry feeling about Rev.
Charles T. Brooks poem, GA Winter Sunrise
on the Hudson" Two other papers in this
number will attract attention,-Rev. E. E.
Hale's article on GA Good Appetite" and a
straightforward and simply-told narrative of
occurrences in McClellen's first campaign in
West Virginia, in 1861, by an engineer officer
who took an important part in it, Besides Mr..
Brooks poem, there is a short one called "Mis-
understood" by Nora Perry, and valuable
editorials.

"A Reader'' in a communication las

sA Reader'' in communication last
week, stirred up lots of people. Judging
by the letters we have received, the subject
is considered of considerable interest. We
have three letters in which the writer has
taken the signature of "Upper End"
We think it necessary to publish only one
of them this week, though we may publish
others next week, as we like to give people
chance to express their views on questions
of public interest, even if we do entirely
disagree with their ideas.

A Mystery.-The other afternoon Chris
tian Cable was fishing in the river near
Georgetown, and while patiently waiting
for bite the hook attached to his line be-
came fastened to something which he sup
posed was large salmon. He gradually
raised the object to the surface of the
water, but instead of fish it was the de-
composed body of girl of a size to indicate
about ten years of age. Mr.. Gable was
greatly startled at the discovery and scarce
ly knew what to do in the emergency, but
after while he procured the assistance of
a gentleman in drawing the body on shore
and burying it, Nothing is known as to
who the girl was or as to the circumstances
of her death. The body had evidently been
in the water for months.
