TRAVELLING III OLD TIMES.

Of former times leads us to the cOnclu-

with zinc and copper-faced for nothing
short of it could have withstood the
joltings and Earrings, the bOuncings
and bumpings entailed on those who
used any other method OF lOcOln0tiOn
except that which nature provides.
The chariot i'm which Gen. and Mrs.
Washington went to Philadelphia
upon his election to the Presidency
was no doubt an instrument Of torture.
To the discOmfOrts Of this rambling
old carriage may he added, for the
General, the incessant wagging Of Mrs.

known fact that Martha was Of
shrewish nature, and made no bones
of giving the General her views in
very fOrcible manner. The method Of
travelling which they pursued gave
publicity to the fact that the General
had curtain lecture every night for
night-cap. In the course Of their
journey they arranged to spend the
nights ut the houses of the gentry scat
tered along between Mount Vernon
and Philadelphia, and Martha was Of
ten heard to nag her lord and master
until loud snOre announced that the
General was safe In the land Of dreams
from all worldly annOyances.
