W2s written for the BAzoO by one OF
Sedaliais most prominent citizens:
Near a score of years ago | had
ssften heard of people catching trout
as fast as they could haul 'em out >
Z had often been assured Of the plausi
MIity of such fact, but l had my
doubts. l knew / had fshed fol-
sxout and never 'hauled 'em out al
all, aud SO / was a skeptic as to any
sach proceedings as enthusiastic ang.
sezs from the north of the granite
xate had repeatedly affirmed to have
been within their daily experience.
Taking all things into consideration,
therefore, l determined to try for

Littleton was a large and flourish
ing com nlunity, composed chiefly of
epheneral stagedriven. black-legs,
and acute5 landlords, who play poker
with Hnsuspecting travellers over
night, to whom they lend money in
tie morning to pay their tavern bills.
We did not abide in Littleton. We

I Rad been in the habit of thinking
that my own native western New
York was the most beautiful country
upon Gods earth, and, indeed, in
of foliage and verdure, in
brilliancy Of color, know Of
none that surpassed it.
In the spring-time of the year, when
everything is bursting forth in vigor-
GUS life; when the trees bud in fearless
defiance of frost, and flowers bloom in
bright profusion: when the corn tran
sends all limits Of respectable growth,
md the grain starts its tender shoots
befoe the snow is quite gone and in |
EaSer summer, when the golden harv-
est Is ripe for the sickle, and, swayed |
BY the gentle wind, the vast field
rolls like the pillows of the sea; with |
he cultivated garden, the farm with |
ts barns of plenty and its presses
with new wine; the plain
nth its velvet grass, the hillside with
= luxnriant vine, nature presents no
ovelier sight than meets the eye, and
,laddens the heart of the dweller in
hs Empire state.
Still, such scenery conveys no i'm
weston of the vast or grand, for the
,ornon is limited in its view. But
mong the mountains of the eastern
tates, the landscape stretches away
'efore you for miles upon miles, with
lkes, streams and rivers, villages and
arms, spread out in one great picture.
Int however beautiful the sight, the
m began to get hot, and ideas of SEN
irRent rapidly vanished, and soon ar
