NTELROSE.

Your correspondent took a stroll
on Sunday last through part of the
beautiful valley, situated between
the Atlantic on one side and
the Blue Ridge mountains on the
other, and was entertained by the
grandeur of nature at this time of the
year, occasioned by the heavy frost.
The many colored leaves were falling
as thickly as snow fakes in a snow
storm. I came in contact with an
abundace of snow on the north side of
Dug Hill, even walking on top OF it
for quite a distance. The apple
crop must have been an immense
one, as we saw trees with an abun-
dance of apples on them yet Great
changes have taken place i'm recent
years, woodland has given way to
cultivated land, bearing abundant
crops. Orchards have sprung up on
seemingly barren lands. We also
noticed that streams crossing roads
and paths that have never failed are
now perfectly dry Many places ia
miliar to your correspondent thirty
years ago, have materially changed,
yet some of the old land marks re-
main. This world truly Is ever
cality to another and make use of
their talents until they are called up
higher.
Recently we learned of Iaughable
incident that happened in the neigh
borhood. a man heard a dog bark
ing, and going to his rescue he found
him in an excavation Of the earth.
Taking stick he tried to creep fin
to help capture rabbit the dog run
in, when a skunk made him get out
faster than he had entered.

Mrs. Jonas Bachman, Of Westminster,
