A Voice From the White Mountains,



\ letter from the White Mountains at this
season of the year can hardly be called in good
form. But to my mind there is quiet beauty
about these autumn tintS more lovely than any
thing which spring or summer can boast
While the grand Old monarch Mt Washing
ton, has donned his winter garb of white the
winding valleys and dark ravnes are still
| clothed in the glitterin@ colors of diving year
| How glorious these manifestations of nature
| The wings of fancy here seem impotent and
feeble The rays cf the morning and the set
/ ting sun stream across peaks and precpces
! and light up the dark passes with weird and
! peculiar beauty. What mighty conyul>ion> in
the unwritten past have touched these uphea,-
ing rocks with the foot prints of Omnipotcnce: ::
Stern. grand and gloomy. but yet lighted with
a grace that softens the impression of >uhlinl-
| lily, here stand the mountains, stretching
away in the distance, their broken and irregu-
lar outlines and black and ca>telated SUBMITS
resembling the clustered towers and froWning
battlements of feudal de>potism. Around their
bases are dark caverns which seem like fitting
abodes of the genii. Here and there the water
gushing from the ga>hed and Splntered rocks
leaps over cascade, and whirls away on its
course down TO the valleys. From these
streams are fed the lakes that cluster around
these rock-rbbed hills;

customary in those days to name the Oldest son for
the father and the oldest daughter for the mother
