K Gilder and .\r. R. Y. Leaveli wer destroyed by tire Saturday mornin3 about two o'clock. The fire whic1 is supposed to have been started b: rats, originated in Mr. Leavell's bari and had gained great headway befor it was discovered. The flames sprea rapidly and before the fire departmen arrived the adjoining barn of Di Gilder's was in full blaze. Both barns were burned to ~thE ground. but the horses and buggie were saved. Mr. Leavell's loss i about $350. and Dr. Gilder's abou 5oo. There was no insurance. The fire department responded t, the man-not a member being absen -which certainly speaks well for volunteer company. They did effc ient work in saving several adjoin ing out-houses which were in the patl of the flames. On the way to the fire the hos, vagon came very near colliding int< a broken down wagon near Mr. Jin Davidson's residence. The wago1 as stranded nearly in the middle o :he road, and had it not been tha he moon was shining the hose wagoi sould have been wrecked and som, >ne would have been seriou4y injur d.

Of course we traveled over the Le high Valley road from Philadelphi, to Niagara. and enjoyed the beauti ful mountain views, the wooded land scape, the ever changing scenes o woodland and streamlet, all thrilling all inspiring, until we arrived nex day at Niagara Falls.

Right lus:i ig up." we visit p int .d interest on iy d1e, ur part y eler up it this grand scene, a veritable panorama of rge4us and unrivalled beauty. and as we skirt with nonchalance the wa ter's dangerous brink, and dip our arms into the dashing. splashing wa ters as they foam and froth at ou very feet. we are almos't lost in won der and ecstasy. Venturing far b' low where timid mortal treads, to the very brink of the rushing vortex. I select an exquisite piece of limestone rock, as a souvenir of my venture some spirit, when lo! the ever-watch ful patrolman rushes hard upon _ue to remonstrate but excited, aimost angry though he appears to be. we win him with our protest that we fear no danger. being a good swimmer. He readily perceives that we are sane and even-balanced and so we ascend the cliff above us and all is well. But ie tells us all cannot do that and only a few days ago he rescued a fellow who had been on too intimate ac quaintance with John Barleycorn and was trying the same trick. The Cave of Winds, the Inclined railway, a ride on the Maid of the Mist, through and around the Niagara gorge, the great gorge route, the Whirlpool Rapids. the Construction of immense Power companies, the ride to Chippe wa above the Niagara rapids, the great arch bridge, these are but a few of the pleasures that a visit to Niag ara affords. These I cannot describe, being without poetic fancy, and not being struck by the divine Afflatus, that inspires to exquisite imagery. My advice is to go and go again if you love the beautiful in nature and are seeking to know aesthetic culture. Queenston heights, the Devil's Hole, where a British caravan and a compa ny of soldiers were ambushed and massacred by the Indians in 1763, the entire company save two, left to tell the tale, having been driven over the cliffs into the raging waters below. All this and more awaits your en - raptured vision, reader. Leaving, with a lingering look, beautiful Niag ara, we are ~soon transferred to our boat, Chippewa, at Lewiston and we ride Ontario's beautiful lake a dis tance of 35 miles, and inhale her balmy breezes, unmolested by cus tom's officers and are soon landing upon Toronto's hospital shores.
