dows—perhaps it wasachurch. One little WHOLESOMENESS lake was full of logs. Among our fellow- passengers were two boys from near Monc- ton, bound for Seattle, and nice lads they —SECURED IN USING— are. There is a woman here from Finland, who is going to the same place. She is rather short and dark, wears large earrings, has a very pleasant manner and expression, and speaks English nicely. She came by way of New York, where she stayed three weeks. There is another emigrant party of four men, who have been very nice. Now that wefare settled down, the trip is very enjoyable. The cars are airy, and it is a splendid day. I hope none of my good friends will be much shocked at my chat- ting this way on Sunday morning, as it is more pleasant to me than spending my time in thinking regretfully of the friends I have left behind. By the way, 1 was nearly up- set this morning by hearing a lady speak on the platform of one of the stations in what I imagined was a very familiar voice. Most of these people have no mattresses, but they make out to sleep quite soundly with- out. There is an old gentleman in one of the upper berths who evidently has come from the ‘‘ ould sod.” Here we are run- ning along at the foot of a chain of hills partly clad with trees, but showing great grey bare spots every here and there.

For a while we pass through a "‘fectting country, with small houses here and there, and then there are larger hills than any we have seen, and we cross and recross a rapid little river that goes foaming over the rocks form- ing rapids in two or three places. The trees here are tall and thick. Is it the the forest primeval? We have stayed here quite a while, and our old- Irish gentleman asked a young swell who came through the

cause of the delay. He was told a wheel of the engine had come off, and they had sent

,up country for a blacksmith to repair it.

‘sign of alarm, I conclude that he has not

We have become acquainted with our neighbours across the car. They are a party of Englishmen just out; jan old man and his son who look like sea-faring men, a tall fellow from Wiltshire and two boys, one of whom is from London. They are going to settle out West. They seem fairly educated gentlemanly fellows, who are pretty sure to do well. There are quantities of lovely pond lilies in bloom all along, white and yellow.. We have passed such a number of small rivers, most of them running between prettily wooded banks. One thing that is rather dismal to look at here is the number of skeleton trees that stand near the rail- road. The fires have swept but not burned the forest, or rather burned away the undergrowth and killed the trees. Well, our good looking young man is really kind- hearted after all. His companion has brought our invalid a lovely pond lily and he has hunted her out some fruit salts. She will be all right to-morrow, I hope, though the heat is rather enervating.
