We have all heard and read of the lib
eerty bell which, on the Fourth day of July,
ITO, proclaimed independence throughout
all America. The English made
successful attempt to cast this bell in Eng
land and in 1853 it was cast in the new
out the joyful tidings of liberty. On the
crown of the bell was this inscription:
"Proclaim liberty throughout all the land
unto all the inhabitants thereof" 1t was
observed after a certain length of time
that the bell was beginning to crack and
in order to preserve it, a little hole was
cut through just under the inscription.
THINK there is another bell ''the Columbian,
liberty and peace bell which was made
recently and exhibited at the worlds fair
in Chicago last wear.

Atlanta, Ga. July Il, 1S9f-In the summer
Oh 1872 accompanied by four others, Il took
a walk up that cool mountain known by the
Springs at the time and from that place
we started. 4 half mile walk brought US

we began our pleasant climb. The mountain
was covered with delicate ferns and pretty
wild flowers and a cool breeze stirred them
to and fro and brought to us their delicious
odor.
All up the mountain were magnificent
pines and large, spreading oaks, and
We're often tempted to retreat to their shade,
but, as we wanted to see more of the noun
tain, we refrained from doing so. A large
road wound around the mountain and on
both sides trees stood like sentinels with
their branches interlacing above our heads,
forming a shady and delightful canopy.
AS we went further up this shady road it
seemed that all the birds of the forest
came out to serenade us, and the woods
resounded with their melodious songs.
Nature seemed to have heaped many of
her beauties on this tranquil spot, but she
had one in store for that was far great
err than any that we had seen.
AS we proceeded the rustling of water. be
came more distinct and at last we found
ourselves on the green banks of a, cold;
down to beautiful stream of liquid silver
under the shade of magnificent oaks,
in the thick foliage. 1t was. indeed a lovely
spot. Our dusty throats called for water
after seeing this and we were soon partaklnS
of the liquid of life. About this lovely
stream the air seemed cooler and we could
have remained there for the rest of the
day, but we decided to walk further up the
stream
