Ode of the many pleasing object* pre

numerous line drives from Newport t4

Portsmouth on tile same islaud, are th
old-fashioned windmills. They maj
truly be called old-fashioned, nut oulj
ton account of the antiquity of tia
tiethod of ga inding grain, but also be
cause of the veneraule age of the strue
ures themselves. Atust prominen
tmong these is the Old Stone Auli
iulilt, two hundred years ago by Gover
nor Arnold, which has so absurdi

tegendary visit of the Northmen t4

at ter the model which he had seeni nea,
his own birthplace In England, whiel
is still in active working order. Doubt
less many a grist mus, in years gon
by, ground within this roofless relic
'The lack of running streams, tidal o
otherwise, on the island, compelle(
the Ilrit English occupants of it to hav
recourse to this method of manufactur
ing their breadstui's. It offers a prett:
fairly balanced comparison of facilitle
and costs with the use of water power
There are eight of these windmills oi
the island besides Arivold's, seven o

The Bastil.
The Bastile of Paris, did not actually
becotie notorious as a State prison
until the reign of Louis X 1II,, al
though high personages were cotidned
In It from time to time almost from its
first existence-in fact, if tradition is
i to be believed, the very noble who
- built it by the King's command was the
first one to pine away In its deep recess

all that was required to bring any oue

matter to get out, for nothing but an
, other order from the Kieg would have t

Smuch oper head, and the scale of prices
was very liberal-so much so that the
a post was lookea upon as a very fat
- berth for any one who had no objection
to doing dirty work. -Not only men
but women and children found their 1
way into the Bastile, so that there was I
often a lack of -accommodations. The
3 cells were all in the high round towers,
- where a hcavy iron grating and a pecu
liar construction of the windows pre- i
s vented more than a modicum of the I
daylight from entering. The dungeons
were slightly beneath the level of the
f moat, and a narvow opening into the
ditch was all the provision for fresh I
air and lIght. The foul odors, which
were all that the prisonef in one of
t those could get as a substitute for fresh
air, soon broke down his health, and
unless lie was of a very robust consti
tution lie did not live long. The build

prisoners, but when its doors were
opened on the memorable 14th of July, 1

to know why he was there. On theI
wall were the records of others who
had passed long hi hetiml1es in those cells,
either for some renai or Iimiginiry tri

(lie people of France a synlonym of all
that was despotic, cruel and contemp
