Especial" as it drew up at the station
that Friday morning, and the deluge
of flowers with which we were greeted
proclaimed the presence of friends even
before we came to stand still.
There was only time for a goodby,
but it was hearty one and as the
train bore us away amid the waving of
hands and futtering of handkerchiefs,
we felt better and happier to know that
such were the friends who would well
come our return byand-by.
The ''woodey'' scenery between
Princeton and Duluth admits of little
in the way of variety but forest fires
were raging at various points and the
bright-red flames creeping among the

Duluth, in its hilly setting, formed a
refreshing contrast to the monotonous
level of West Superior and, as we
crossed the arm of the lake between
the two cities, we obtained a distant
glimpse of the great Northwest" upon
which we were to take passage. ..s1
Upon arriving at the wharf, we
found that the boat had gone out with
a large party of excursionists and
would not return until six O'Clock.
The time would have dragged
heavily enough had we not fallen in
with two old friends from Princeton,
Mr.. and Mrs. Partisan, who made it
very pleasant for us, pointing out OBJ
jects Of interest in the city, and aiding
us in our struggle to board the steamer
midst the crowds that focked to her
sides the moment she touched the
landing.

BLACKIsTON'S ISLE.

[The following beautiful and expressive little
gem is from the pen of Miss Mary Huse, who is
at present sojourning at Biackiston's Isle. But
let Miss Huse describe the island in prose as well
as in poetry. Distant about ninety miles from
Washington, this beautiful little island lies just
where the Potomac mingles it's waters with the
broad Chesapeake and is bounded on the north
by Mary land, south by the sole VirgnnyI' shore.
It is nearly circular and about a mile in circum-
ference. My Cousins cottage occupies an elevated
position in the center, and from it we can see
every part of the island with its blue encircling
watersand the mainland beyond. Alight- house
stands at the southern extremity and there are
several cottages, some of them occupied only as
summer residences, others as permanent homes
by the native islanders Fishing and dredging
for oysters form the chief industry during the
winter and spring while the income from summer
sboarders aid the Inhabitants in eking out COM
Portable livelihood. Apples, pears and plums,
also the mulberry tree grow upon the island and
are as free as the air and water to ell, while
groves oflocust, cedar and walnut trees furnish
shade. One young man, the fortunate owner of
several fine boats, can furnish entertainment fo1
many, and 'Sailer Fred captain of the schooner
Splendid and two oor three salboats, has prom
ised us innumerable trips, while in the way OF
amusements there are grabbing, oystering, the
