found us. Royal fare and courtly atten-

Vernon street and WeareslY avenue.
Every means Of transportation awaited
us here, even q we'll conditioned steed,
warlike in appearance, who we'll knew
how to leave the world behind him. The
roads were the pride OF the Newton
families, so smooth and wide, giving
ample opportunity for horse flesh
development, All kinds of rigs are seen
on these smooth roads. Barouches,
drivers in livery. phaetcns, hacks, cabs.

driving as if manifest destiny was to be
reached by this route now and here. IL
has o fearful realization now and then,
as it did when we were in the vicinity of
a tricycle., when the young married
couple quickened the speed of
the already limited express. The
route lay down an inclined
plane under the threatening
heavens, for dark and leaden clouds over
cast the sky. The foot of the hill var
nearly reached, but death cnme to the
husband and insenslbility to his bride
ere 1t was reached.
As one rides about in these mystic
rious cruises he has O wonderful vision
of the picturesque and beautiful, now
of architectural beauty, now of q beau
tifnl lawns skirted by lofty trees of pine,
of fir, elm and maple. Now the beauty
is in the choice and disposition of the
trees, shrub and flowers, now in the
lawns. All is beautiful. If the prefer
ence is given to the one he is now pas
sing it is because he has not had q view
of the next. Then the owner of the
fiery steed is at home on his yacht
among the islands in Boston harbor, or
outside the Boston light house, where
old ocean bears rule. On one of these
flying trips we were invited to sail
Sick at first, then We sat on the up

resort of pleasure seekers. was our desti-
nation. A short time ashore in the
salutation of friends seen long ago, ana
against us. The heavens darken snG
look threatening. Some of the pleasure
seeking crafts lower sail and cast an
chor. Like the proud ocean steamer Of
the well laden boat from Nantucket
beach, SO we held on N way. Oul

Boston. What a oityl When Danie
Webster gave a memorable Fourth o
July address on Bunker hill, in days o
yore, with many of the reyolutiopar,
patriots before him, he said: "Hoy
changed! the same heavens over us, tn,
same ocean washes III coasts, but al
else how changed" These words / could
heartily endorse, when I well remembe,
when q lad Of nine years / visited Bos
ton for the first time when "Rostol
neck" had Q history, when a single stree
or roadway connected Roston with thu
outside world by land. Now the elit'

a change has come at last to Bostol
