| had as a guest in my residence in
Jamaica a lady of unusual intelligence,
who was very intimate with and much
attached to Mrs. Beecher Stowe. They
frequently corresponded. She had Il
dream in which Mrs. Stowe seemed to
be occupied, singularly enough, in dig
ging the ground, and she inquired if
there was any foundation for this. From
the reply she learned that Mrs Stowe
had been shortly before i'll Scotland on
a visit to the Duke of Argyle, and had
been asked to plant a tree us Il memorial
Of her visit on leaving. Here it is proba-
Die that, besides the general sympathy
between the parties concerned, there
was some special thought, on Mrs.
Stoves part, of the friend who dreamed
OF her act, connected in time either with
the actual handling of the spade or with
the remembrance of her strange occupa-
ton. Few people would suppose such a
coincidence to be purely accidental, unless
from the apparent impossibility for ac-
counting for it otherwise -Blacllwood's

Sure enough, when the delegation ar
