HAMILTON.

We visited the camp-meeting in southern
Lawrence on the Sunday evening it was in
session. When we arrived a great crowd
was gathered by the roadside, all eagerly
looking toward the center of the group. We
found that we were just too late to see a
knock down. 1t is curious how some people
will rush up to see a fght-it always affected
us in different way. We did not get out
of our vehicle until we learned that peace
was declared. At twilight the harsh clang-
ing of bell called the people to the big tent
for evening services. They began focking
in fresh from supper. chewing the last
mouthful, gulping it down and wiping their
mouths and hands. We listened to some
what witty. quite logical and very orthodox
sermon. The speaker said he believed in
hell-fire, and that the reason he believed it
was because the bible said so. There was
no exhibition of spiritual power that even
ing. An old gentleman told us that in the
afternoon they had had very lively time.
We went away disappointed, for the desire
to see an exhibition of the power was not
the least of our motives for going to the
meeting.

Continued from last week. }

In our last we left Judge H. standing on
the porch at the Glen House. He, however,
succeeded in getting down to Gorham in the
afternoon, where the others were waiting for
him. At about 2 p. IN. we took the train
for Portland, which gave us the first oppor-
tunity of riding through any portion of New
England in the day time. The train that
afternoon was about an hour late, and the
conductor evidently was trying to make up
lost time, for as it dashed around the short
curves, past the huge rocks that came close
by the car windows along the mountain side,
it seemed to us that we had never ridden so
fast before. The country through which we
passed, was very poor for farming purposes,
and large areas of it had never been cult
waited at all. Where the rocks did not oc-
cupy the surface it was covered with very
scraggy growth of grubs-occasionall we
would pass by large magnificent farm house
and well kept and painted out-buildings,
nestled away among the rocks on the hill
side; one was led to believe, however, that
those fine buildings had been built by some
yankee ingenuity or shrewdness, rather than
wrung out of the sterile soil that surrounded
them. Portland is fine old city, and like
most of the eastern cities and towns we
visited. is far behind our western towns in
the splendor of its business blocks and build
ings but surpasses ours in magnificent
dwellings, beautiful yards and lawns and
shade trees. New Haven has been termed
the city of elms, but we apprehend she will
have to look well to her merited title, or she
may some day be surpassed by Portland,
with its handsome streets with double rows
of elms on either side, whose tops for COM
plete arch fifty or sixty feet above the street,
as far as the eye could reach. Among the
most noted places about Portland is MI.

Paul Hart: or, The Love of His Life.
New American Story of Real Life. by Uncle
Lutte. Published by L. b. Peterson g. Broth
ers, Philadelphia.
This is thoroughly American story of
real life, without sensational exaggeration,
yet full of incident, and exhibiting, in
marked manner, the various characteristics
of the persons through whom the plot il
simply yet artistically developed, and will be
welcomed by the reading public as much for
its complete probability as for its well-sus-
tanned interest and originality. The scene is
principally laid in New York, and the inter
est is mainly concentrated on the adventures
of Paul Hart. from childhood to successful
manhood. OF course. where there is hero.
there must be heroine. She is here in the
person of Lisette Lawrence, daughter of
wealthy merchant in the Empire City-a
young lady of great personal and mental
charms. Her character, indeed, is admirable;
and the author has evidently taken infinite
pains to develope it, whether amid the sun
shine or storm which pervade what is called
Life. Indeed all the women in this tale are
drawn with truthful pencil. Paul Hart
who, by his own merits and perseverance,
has risen to prosperous and distinguished
manhood, is another pen-portrait of great
merit. There is an under-plot, as usual,
which will divide the readers attention. But
the great merit of this life story is. that it
makes the career of Paul Hart its principal
objective point: and very checkered career
with its alterations of light and shade,
poverty and success, it is, from first to last.
1t is what may be termed domestic romance,
yet the reverse of mere fiction. That is. it
is a thrilling story, so truthful even in its
presentation of individual traits of character
and superstitious dialogue, that one will inn
agine it is literally founded on facts Hart,
the incarnation of a self-made man, must be
photograph from life. 1t is publisher in a
large square duodecimo voiume paper cover,

evidence that they intend to keep fully up

Desert Island, little way down the harbor,
we'll pstronizsd seaside resort, with its
rocky beach ON one side and its sandy beach
ON the other, well situated for sea-bathing.
At night we took the boat for Boston. Two
of our party retired early that night on ac-
count of little unpleasantness they had
with their stomachs, caused by the boats
motion. The others, excepting that Judge
whom we left again at Portland, remained
a long while on deck, enjoying the cool sea-
breeze, and when we at length sought our
stateroom for the night, two of the ladies
still remained, who were having a pleasant
chat with the Captain, and were watching
the moonlight on the water. 1t was so
romantic" you know.
At Boston our company separated, some
going to Lowell, others to Worcester and
one to Newton. Worcester is city of about
$4,000 inhabitants, and is about forty miles
from Boston, on the Boston and Albany
road. has well merited reputation of being
one of the handsomest cities in all New
England. It contains the State Insane Asy-
lum buildings of Mass. large rolling mills
for making railroad iron; the largest wire
factory in the world, employing about 300
hands and running day and night II is
there that nearly all the barbed wire used for
fencing is made. One day, while staying at
Worcester, was spent in trip by rail to
Providence, X. l., and then by steamer down
the Providence river to Newport, which is
situated on an island at the mouth of the
river and is the toniest seaside resort in all
the land. Here we saw some of the finest
residences and grounds that We're seen on
the whole trip. We also saw the finest car
riages and turnouts of every description;
two wheeled phaetons driven by ladies with
their negro footman in stovepipe hat, kid
gloves and knee breeches, perched on little
rest behind. The old stone tower is still
standing, which was found there by the first
settlers, and among the names of the pleas
ant drives which surround the city, we
found that of Lawton's Valley which no
doubt took its name from the ancestors of
Hon. Geo. w. Lawton, who were among the
first settlers on the island. History also as-
serts that among the bellies of Newport in
the olden time, Miss Lawton was the hand
soonest and fairest of them all. We returned
to Rocky point in the afternoon for our clam
bake dinner. Here it was that our friends
in trying our hand at a clam bake, but we
soon fell into the way of doing it, and did
not come out far behind either. 1t does one
good to see those eastern fellows eat CLAIMS
though. Each will get away with from half
bushel to bushel and half at one sitting
that is putting it pretty strong. but we will
let it stand however). Rock point is rightly
named, and just back from the rivers edge
on the bluffs, is built a large hotel, surround
ed by grove of chestnut trees, and the
whole place fitted up in lovely manner. 1t
is a place much frequented by excursion
parties, for the purpose of getting shore
dinner
