TJosays:
Wo wroto to a cousin in Rutland ask
ing hcr to find us a homo in a farm
houso on tlio inountains, and tlion
took turna fanning cach other till
her answcr came.
Ono of tlio family liad visited Rutland
onco upon a tinio, and her description of
tlio mountain tops lost in tlio clouds, of
tho babbliiif: brooks and cool vales, of
tlio bcautif ul foliago and happy favmers,
added to our dosircs, and whcn an ans
wcr camo to our lctter that a farm
liouso was opcn to us, wo turncd our
faces to tho North and followcd tho
linppy anticipation of our hcarts.
My uwn dauRhtor is just out of a somi
navy now, and I was ftrowing old. It
was my lcalization ofthis thatsontmoto
Vermont. I foar that you will think I
am long in gctting thcro, but from New
llavcn, Coun., to Rutland is only six
hours' ride, takhiR tho Connecticut Rivor
railroad at SprinKlicld, Mas., and con
iiccting with tho Central Vermont rail
road. In that rido ono passcs through ascoro
of villages that tompt him to lcavo tho
o.ars and trust hiniself to thcir fricmlli
ncss. Ono such placo is pro-cmincnt in
our mcinoiy, that is Ludlow. Vermont.
Out of 11 tho summer's travcls this
charmiucspot secms to spoak loudcstto
us in entieing toucs to visit it in tho fu
turo. To havo a homo for a wcck in ono
of thoso charming houscs that dot tho
hillsido makes mo happy by anticipation,
and if thodream is nover rcalized I &till
shall long rcraember tho enchaiiting
looking spot. I am told that ono can
get good board for ?o pcr wcck.
Ialso intend somo day to stop at
Rcllovvs Falls and cnjoy tho rivor thcre,
and thcn spcnd a day at Brattleboro,
only 21 miles away. But wo passod
through thcso phices, and stoppcd at a
little station threo from Rutland Xorth
Clarendon. Ilcro is a quict farm liouso,
at tho foot of Uald mountain, and with
Mount Killington, 4I1S0 feot lngh (tho
highest peak iu Vermont), looking down
upon us,- wo sought and found rcst.
I bclicvo ono might moyo away from
tho sca and forgot its roarand its com
panionship, but I do not think ono could
ovcr forgct tho hills or mountains of his
vouth, or ccaso-to mourn for them if ho
loft them.
IIow tlicy nholtcr yon ! IIow thcy join
with vou inall yonr moods! Though I
havo beon a quartcr of a ccutury away
from tho hills of my childhood, I think,
almost every cvening, of tho way tho
sun sank behind them, and of tho glow
intho westernskyattwilieht, or or tho
frowning stornis that scom to havo birtli
upon thoso hill tops.
But how tamo theso sccm as wo stand
at tho foot of theso Green Mountains
and "liftour eyes unto tho hills!" Wo
at onco begin to comparo them with tho
Itocky Mountains, with tho Siorra Ncva
da, and whilo wo do not agrco as to a
vordict, wo both say, "Theso, too, aro
grand."
Wo recall a day in Californin. in
Truckce. whcn on our way to Lako
Tahoo. Tlio mountain sidcs secmcd to
mcct and pass into tho sky. Grcat
pincs that wero said to bo 200 hundred
fcet liigli, looked liko bushes, and wo
said tliat at last we had sccn a moun
tain. Ono does not rcalizo it whcn rid
ing over it. You aro told that you aro
NOOO fcet abovo tho nea, out you aro not
higlicr than tho surrounding landscapo,
and tho elTeot of tho licipjht is lost. But
whcn standing at tlio foot of a hill that
picrces tho clouds. whether it is 4000
lcct or S0O0 fect, it imprcsscs ono by its
majestv, and ho trcmblcs at his own in
signillcanco, whilo ho crceps to its shel
tcring fcet. California was grand and
wild; hero it is grand aud charming;
tho two pictures aro hclpful to each
othcr.
Down bclow us thrco miles away. yet
seeniingly not onc-fiiiartcr that, was fair
Rutland," and her clectric liglits ap
pcarcd to bo a showor of stars caught in
their dcsccnt on boughs of trees. It was
a prctty picture, and ono that wo turncd
to many times ovcry ovcning of our
stay.
Tho morning is ushcrcd in by tho
crowing of tho cock, tho gcntlo lowing
of cattlc. tho noiso of milk pails, tho
r.ows going to pasturo, and tho appctiz
ing sounds of prcparation for breakfast.
Tho night had been cool and invited ono
to slccp. Tho country rond had bccn
descrtcd assoon as it was dark, and tho
long hours wero undisturbcd oxcept by
tho momcntary llash of tho midnight cx
prcss. Tlio noonday sun was hot, but tho air
was dry, puro, bracing, and wo hcld our
selvcs back from doing all wo wero in
clincd to do lest we might in our ignor
anco of tho climate, work oursclvcs
harm.
Thcn tho woll ! Yo who drink watcr
of a clay coinplexion and of moro than
doubtful purity, think of a well of watcr
on tho mountain side, abovo all drains
andout-buildings, clear as crystal, cold
as ico, swceter than wincf Tho old
oakcn bucket brought it up to your
leach. and ono could scarcely resist tlio
tempation to quaff too frequently. 1'iiro,
air and puro water; what will thcy not
do for humanity? Ilcro thoy wero, and
hcro also wero wo to cnjoy them.
Tho botanists tcll 1110 that Vermont is
thcir Taradisc. I can well beliovo it.
In our shori; stay wo collectcd ovcr 20
Rpecimcns for our hcrbarium within a
few rods of our tcmporary homo.
Our sitting room was tho shado undcr
sovcral splnndid sugar niaolcs in front
of tho door, whcro a hammock was
swiing. Across tho road was a row of
10 or 12 handsomo buttcrnut trccs,
whcrein tho squirrcls flashcd in nnil out
and occasionally chattcrcd nt us saucily,
as if tclling us to "go West."
Always in tho air was tho roar of tho
rockv nver that circlcd our farm, and
Rutland was shining in tho sun, or
sparkling with clectric gems.
I'assing ui) tho road a sliort distanco
ono camo to" an opcning, and thero at
his fcet, and cxtcmling to tho feot of tho
mountain oppositc, was a valley about
onc-eighth of a mllo in wldtli, carpctcd
with tho grecncst grsss, shaded by scv
cral scoro of grand sugar maples and f ull
of tho rushing stream, woll named Uold
rivor.
Following tho cdgo of tho hill ono
camo to an old mill, near path lcading
into tho valley. Along his way thcro
wero grcat fornsand bcds of clccampano,
that old hcrb so woll known to our
grandmothcrs. Through tho carpct of
grass was a tiny brook. Among tho
maples was tho "sugaring houso," uscd
in its scason, and along tho banks wero
grcat beds of mosscs and delicato
fcrns.
But the charm of all was tho river and
itsstony bed. Thero was no sand, no
pcbbles, no shorc. The nver bed and
tho banks on each sido of tho river wero
onoimmcnso collcction of stoncs; big
stones and littlo; white, red and bluo;
stoncs seamcd with quartz and glitter
ingintliesun; stoncs stained with iron
aud mauganeso; stones clistcning with
mica: but all of them worn smooth and
rounded with travel ovcr many a milo of
mountain courso.
Can you imagino a richcr trcat than
this for a child? Tho current was strong
but tho watcr was not dccp m summer,
though it must bo a terriblo river in
winter aud in spring, as tho immonso
boulders thrown up on tho banks testl-
I dcfy any man or woman to sit on
thcso banks and not begin to throw the
stoncs, lying under his fcet, into tho
water. It is one of thoso temptations
human naturo cannot rcsist. But think
what tho tcmptation is to a child, and
what supremc happiness to bo whero slio
can throw, and paddle, and splash to her
hcart's content.
Our young pcrson led us faithfully
ovcry day onco, and sometimes twice, to
tho bank of this river. Her shocs and
stockings wero quickly removcd, and
(though tho watcr scomcd vory cold to
us), thero sho worked, btiilding channols
and movinff stoncs, till wo drow her out
and carried hcr homo. It may occur to
you, if you remember your own days of
wading, that stones aro somowhat slip
pcry whcn undcr water, so you necd not
bo surpriscd to hear that our young pcr
son occasionally sat down in tho stream,
nor to bo told that whatover clso this did
it did not dampcn hcr ardor.
Wo all took dclight in tho river. Wo
camo upon it in many othcr placcs near
tho farm, aud mado ourselves its fricnd
and coniidcnt. I had to pay for cxtra
baggatro bccauso of so many of its stony
jowels being storcd in our trunks.
Wo aro always grateful for fair wcath
er, but ono-half day of rain was gladly
hailcd that wo might watch tho ciouds.
Anothcr afternoon fortuno favorcd us
with a magnificent thundcr shower.
Wo first saw it in tho north and watclied
it orceping along tho wcstern moun
tains. peak aftcr peak disappoaring in
tho clouds, though farther soutp tho sun
was gilding tho hills. Thcn it camo
slowly across tho valley to us, and sud
denly tho world was vcry dark and very
small.
Tho young pcrson bccamo an cxpert
drivcr of cows, and was encouragcd to
rido tho old horsc. Sho was allowcd to
hunt for cggs, to feed tho hens and
stand on the fcnco whcn tho pigs wero
fcd. Sho wcnt off to markct whcnovcr
tho wagon went, and sho was 'supromoly
happy from inorn till night. Sho cn
joyed farm life, as ovory child docs, and
whcro could a child flnd sot much with
wliich to bo happy?
Wo niado fcw long jaunts. Wo wero
in Rutland frequently. Itisa beautiful
city, whcro ovcry prospect pleases and
only tho railroad station is vilo. Thoy
havo a lunch couuter thero, and tho
wash cloths aro hung on a towel-rack in
front of tho main door of 'tlio dcpot to
dry. The sitting-rooms are, naturally
and pcrliaps inevitably a, placo of tor
turc bccauso of tho ilies drawn tliero by
tho cookinir. and tliocloscts arocarefully
ncglcctcd, so that cholcra can hero flnd a
homc. I pity you it you, must stay in
that waiting-room m.wy- minutcs, with
its varionsodors and hungry llics. But
I wanl to except tlio tickot agcnt from
my condemuations. IIo was courtcous,
paticnt, hclpful, and won my admira
tion. IIo was tho ono- good thing in
tliat Nazarcth !
In West Rutland aro tho famous mar

rieu theso many years jjast, aud yet tho
great scams are hardly touched. Proc

principal owner, and tho inarblo king of
Vermont.
Wo spent one day there, taking a bas-
kctof lunch with us, and eating our din
ncr on marblo hlocks, it is an uncanny
positiou to stand at tho moutli or ono
of thcso nuarries, grasn an iron rod.

The world swoltcred in tho lowlands
whilo wo wero enjoying mouutain

wero paying oxtravagant prices for

Tho N. Y. Werld's corresnondcnt at
Aix lcs Bains sends an account of an in-
terviow with ox-Sonator Georgo F. Ed
munds of tho 17th. In nnswor to tho
question, "What is tho most vital qucs
tlon confronting tho pcoplo of tho Unitcd
States?" Mr. Edmunds roplied: Tho im-
migration probicm. Tno poriou has
been rcachcd whcn action must bo taken
to provcnt a hordo of Europeans who
llock to Amcrica, from landing on our
shorcs. According to tho provailing
system, tho class of peoplo whom Euro
pcan nations do not requiro, havo bccn
shipped ovcr scas to Now York. Thcso
alicns do not rcadily assimilato with
Amcrican idcas and customs, although
it may bo said that they acquiro our
vices moro rcadily tlian our virtues. They
constituto distinct Nntionalilics, with
thcir own home prejtidices,supcrstitions,
pcrsoual habits and modcs of lifo, whilo
at tho samo timo enjoying all tho privi
leges of Amcrican citizcnslnp, acquired
in a brief pcriod. You and 1 sorved our
twenty-ono years' apprcnticcship beforo
wo attalncd thoso rights, during which
timo wo wero oduoatcd to an undcrstand
ing of tho principles of a Republican
form of Govcrnment. Wo should wel
como tho industrious, honcst,immigrant,
who leaves his homo in ovcr-crowded
Europo to improvc his condiUon and to
bccomo ideutlflcd with tho land of his
adoption. A largo proportion of tlio
country pcoplo of Franco and Gormany
would become usefulcitizcus. Thourban
immigrauts aro apt to bo undcsirablc.
Thcro is no rcason why Russia, iu licr de-
siro to got rid of acertain uttinbcr of sec-
tarians, should scud them to America,
whcro they aro undcsirablc. Stoamship
companics, from business reasons, havo
cncouragcd imraigration, rcgardlcss of
'.ho character of matcrial they transport.
A chango should bo mado nt oncc, and a
largo proportion of tho class of immi
grauts who havo landcd, should bo do
nied admissiun iu tho f uturc. Tlio rccent
law passcd by Congiess, rcgulating im
migratiou, was a stop in tlio riglit direc
tion, but vcry iucomplctc." Mr Ed
munds spoko of tho difliculty of securing
lcgislation, for fear of antagonizing tlio
foreign votc, and added: "Finally, self
prescrvation will compel public scnti
ment to forco strong rcmedial lcgisla
tion. Tho salvation of tho Republic, as
it exists, according to tho principles of
its fonnders, hinges on a ccssation of tlio
abnormal iullux of undcsirablo immi
grants." Mr. Edmunds thiuks tliero aro
not any legal constitutional barricrs in
tho way of legislation to piovcnt immi
gration. Tho cx-Senator was asked what
ho thought tho outlook for ncxt Novom
ber was, and replicd: "Tho country has
rcccivcd political platformsand addrcsscs
of candidates for tho prcsidcncy, and tlio
merits of respcctivo party claims havo
beon or aro buing weighed. Tho ncccs
sity for tlio maiiitcnanco of a Protectivo
system is so obvions that tho woight of
scntiment and practical inllucnco will bo
thrown m its favor. Tho substantial
olomcnts will generally support tho party
that will givo tho best rnturn. Tho dis
intercstcd, intclligcnt scntiment, whether
it bo that of bankcr, mcrchant, trader,
mechanie or workingmaii, dcmauds tho
Protectivo systom, and corruptly ob
tained majontics iu tho great ceutres of
populatiou will not prevail against it. I
anticipato tho ro-clection of Prcsident
Harrison, for tho rcason that ho, as
cverybody knows, is a coiisciontious,safo
Exccutiye, who is always coguizant that
ho is, like you or I, bound by tho law.
IIo ropresents tlie Republican party and
ho is wiso and discreut. Public interest
will coutinuo safo in his hands. IIo is
backcd by thrcc-fourths of his party. I
speak broadly, in tho measurcs ho advo
cates and supports. This gives him grcat
popular Rtrcngth, for tho Presidcnt mav
liavo viows tliat aro at varianco with
tlioso of the largcr portion of his practi
cal associates, as Cluveland had. Clevc
hmd has no such solid backiiur. I regard
him personally as stromr, ablo and hon
est, and couragoous. His rccent lettcr
of acccptance, in which iio virtually de
(ics his party, provcs this. Thcy havo
to acccpt what ho says, bccauso thoy
cannot hclp thcinsolvos. Tho Domocratic
party will swallow almost anything to
obtain ascendcncy again, but Clovolaiid's
tinancial viows aro not hiipported by a
majority of tho Democracy. A majority
voted for tlio frco silver schcmo in tho
last Congiess, and Cleveland, wo aio lcd
to supposc, will opposo this. His mod
eration on tho tarilf qucstinn is antago-
nistic to tho w shos ot a nowcrlui contin-
gent of his party, also could ho rcsist tho
pressuro that would weigli on him tro
menduously, in tho ovent of hisolection?
This is a nucstion that tho votcrs must
ask thcmsclves if they aro wavcring.'
Mr. Edinunds thinks "tho recent elcc
tions iu Vermont havo no political mean
inir v.nf flmf flm 1 ll.tTl nPI'!l f Q 1in1llft
ncaily a full votc, or cuito so, and that
tliero wero many Kcpunucans wno rc
maincd at home. Vermont is almost cn
tircly an agricultural, nativo population
and generally Rcpublicans, and they
know tho Stato is sccurely for their
nartv. In cverv district thcro may havo

two miles, say, to votc, whcn tho Lcgis
latnro will bo threo to ono Republican,
and our candidato for Governor will bo
elcctcd beyond peradventnro. They ro
maincd on tho farm. Tho Democrats
havo gained in strength slowly, owing to
tho inllux of Irisli and Frcnch Canadians.
Tlio rccent clection had no conncction,

With a majority of only thirty-cight,
cnmposed of elomeuts that aro not
altogether accordant on all ques
tions, Mr. Gladstono may tind
it difliuult to carry his
covcrnment tlironch tho scssion and to
kccp his numbcrs compact and well dis-
cipllucd. Tho most (lcunlto and le
cided programmo which has yct an
peared for accomnlishint: this obiect is
laid down in an articlo in tlio FortnighUy
Jletlew by Mr. Frodcric Harrison. Mr.
Harrison is not. in polltics himself, but
is intcnsely intercstcd in tho Homo Rulo
schcmo, and ho is a most dramatio aud
vigorous writer. His programmo has at
lcastthomcritof courago aud earncst-
ncss; and should it boadoptcd, it might
provo cffcctivo. Ho porccives that the
liomo Rulo hill is likoly to bo delaycd
at every staco by tho obstruction of tho
Unionist mcuibers, and that ovcn aftcr
its passago throuch tho Houso of Coin
mons, it will bo thrown out by tho
Lords.
In viow of theso facts, Mr. Harrison
nronoscs that tho blll Hhnll lin nrcnarcd
in a largo and gcncrous siiirit so as to bo
cntircly satisfactory to tho Irisli mcm
bors. Tho Encllsh. Scoteh. Welsh
metropolitan and labor eroups on tho
Llboral sido aro to bo kcpt in lino for
tho Homo Rulo schcmo br definito as
suranco that tho bllls in which thoy aro
most narticularlv intercstcd aro well in
hand and awalt only tho passago of tho
Homo Rulo bill. no thinks that six
wceks would bo timo ouough for tho
considsration of tho bill, followed by
ono full debato on its principles, lasting
not moro than four nights. Af tor tho
division thcro should bo do second de
bato on tho principles. In tho commit
tee stago tho bill should not bo allowcd
to consumo moro than two or threo
weeks at tho maximum and in order to
cut ofl obstruotion and dilatory amcnd
ments, ho would havo tho closuro used
overy noitr if neccssary. Finally a de
bato of two nights on tlio bill as rovised
in committeo should bo allowcd and
thcn it should bo passcd.
Tho conditions of dispatch, Mr. Harri
son says, aro thcso: "Rigid timo limits
for dcbatcs and soparato speechos; con
stant hourly resort to closuro; no com
promiso or mangling of tho original
seheme: but tho billj tho wholo bill,
and notliing but tho bill." Such energy
as theso measurcs would discloso would,
ho bclicvcs, givo hcart to tho majority
and would kccp them closo as a phalanx.
Homo Rulcrs of every slnulo would fccl
that tho battlo of Armagcddon was at
hand and would strain cyery ncrvc. In
this way tho bill could bo passcd beforo
Eastcr, aud tlio rcst of tho scason could
bo dovotcd to tho satisfsction of tho
claims of tlio various scctions of tho
Liberal party alrcady nientioncd.
So much for thc Houso of Cominons.
With tho Houso of Lords Mr. Harrison
would deal in a vcry hiinimary fash
ion vcry much as his namesako, tlio
progenitor of our Prcsident Harrison,
dealt with Pailiament in CrotnweH's
timc. IIo would mako it part of tho
Liberal programmo to follnw tho rojec-
tion of tho bill by tho Lords inimediato
ly with a movi'inont for tho suppression
of tho uppor chamber. Ho would send
tho uill uack atter rnjection withouc tle
bate and witli now and harder terms
cach timc. Ho would mako it plain to
tho peers that, if necessary enough now
pcers woum uo crcated to swamp tno
advcrso majority in tho uppor house.
By thcso mcans it would oo matio cicar
to" tlio aristocrats that tho acceptanco of
tho bill would bo for them only ono
horn of a dilemmn, tho other horn of
which would bo tho abolition 01 tho
Houso of Lords.
This, of coursc, is a rovolutionary pro
grammo. Tho autnor recognizes tno
fact, antl admits it; uut no jtcciarcs tnac
England is alrcady in a stato of rcvolu
tion not rcvolution by forco of arms,
uut rcvolution oy pcaccabio aud legal
processcs and that tho immcdiato
abolition of tho Houso of Peers would
only bo an anticipation ot a stop that is
bound to bo taken beforo many years
havo passed. iv. 1 . rrcsn.

by tho Unitcd States 1'isli uommisston.
Tlio iititland 1'isli and uanio ciub ro
ceivcd during tho year 15,000 trout, which
wero placed in diffcrent streams in town.
About 5,000 wero lost in process of traus-
poitatiou.
m spcaking ot lisii lood tho commis-
sioncrs say that watcr is not tho only es
sential to tho successlul culturo of lish,
In othcr words food lish will not thrivo
whero thcro is no flsli food.
Thero aro somo watcrs in tho Stato
that necd to bo stockcd with lish food
rather than with food lish. Smelt or
frost flsli aro regardcd as tho best food
for trout lakes, and frcsh watcr shrimps
for trout streams. Miuuows aro not re
gardcd as dcsirablo bccauso thoy cat
tood bettcr than thoy are. Crawlish aud
vcllow pciuu aro regardcd as tho best
food for bass."
Tho Commi.ssioners mako scvcral rcc
ommcudations, among which aro the
followinc:
Tliat tho law for tho protcction of
trout lcss than six inchcs in length bc
rc-cnactcd. If possiblo tho limit should
bo moro than six iuclies, rather than
lcss.
Tho flsli walden system can bo mado
moro ciTectivo by allowing tho wardens
to havo part of tho flnes in all cases at
tcnding conviction. Evcn tlieu tho war
dens iu many cascs would bo out finan
cially. Thcir work is of a disagreeablo
and oftcn dangcrous character, and
should bo fully apprcciated by all law
abiding citizcns.
Although not connccted with tlio du
tics of tho flsli commissioners, tliey call
cspccial attention to tlio gamo laws,
which aro thcmselves not pcrfect.
Thosubjcct of iishways should havo
attention. Dams on tlio smaller streams
should bo so constructed as to admit tlio
freo passago of lish. In many instanecs
this can bodono at littlo or no cxtra ox
penso in construction.
Fisliways sliould bo constructed on
somo of tho larger streams at points
whero tho passago of fish is obstructcd.
Tlio cmptying of sowcrago or any sub
stinco dcletcrious to tho lifo of lish
sliould bo prohibitcd.
