Editor: After a month of a1 sence, we have just returned to As] land Farm," so we give you son accounts about the places we have ho the pleasure of visiting. About a ha an hour after leaving Franconia statioi we reached Washington. Upon il quiring at the ticket office, we foun that our train was not due for sever hours; so we thought we would tal advantage of this. We immediate] hired a carriage and soon we wei driving around the city. First v went to the bathing beach, which not far from the monument. Scein the monument so near at baud, we r solved to go to the top, so a fe minutes later we were in the elevatc slowly but surely gelug up. It too' about ten minutes to reach the tol then everl body made a rush for t1 windows, where there was a beautift view to be seen. From the top of t1 Mcnum.Mn:, one has a good idea c how beautifully Washington is a off; besides, from there can be see many of the noted buildings & From the monument went to ti museum, and from there to "The Fis Commission Building," where w were for a while interested in ti wonders of the deep. Time was pasi ing very rapidly, so we next went t the B. & P. depot. We reached it i amole time to buy eur tickets &c. I a few hours we found ourselves i Charles Town, West Virginia, whei we spent two weeks. Our stay ther was very pleazz ut, and we drove an walked around a good deal. It di not take long to see everything c :ne in the town, consequently % - ne to the conclnsion that it woul we nice to see all the surroundio places of interest, and this we resolve to do. One day we weat seven miles ou in the country to Shannondale Springi which is somewhat of a summer r( sort. The chief attractions of th lace are the spring water, a ten. court, the ball-room, and the ro; boats. There is also a bathing beaCh the Shnandoah River being close a hand. A few days after th;s we took little jaunt to Harper's Ferry, wher we eisjoyed one of the most inagnificen views imaginable. We cimbed wa: p on a hig-h mountain, and to th very top of tii famous "Jefferso Rock." It is not to be marveled tha Jefferon whilst s anding th"re ex claimed, "It is worth a trip acro the Atlantic!" The surrounding moun tains, the river, the town way below and the high position we occupied ei the rock carried our thoughts abov< he commonplace. We Und it im possible to express our sentiments o the subject. Sufficient, to say, thi we could have sat there for hours deep meditation, had our time pet mit ted of such. We will not speak of the historict onnections of the place, _for yet know all about them, and it ~seemi almot a sacrilige to connect suoi n ideal place withI something s< realistic as "A John Brown Raid." The next place we went to wa [Ratling Springs, but our time doe not allow us to go into det ails abou his place, as we have other things t We visited Berryvi.le, and despite the fact that we only spent a day ant night there, we saw enough of thi place and people to form a favorabli >pion. we went from Berryville back t< our headquarters, (Charles Town) an' there found ever-ibcdy in a state o excitement ever a Gerj.'an which was to be given at the ho-el, Powharan 'lle German came oiT ue the appointed time, and was a graud success. We next set oftffor the white Sulphui Springs. When we reached the lovely ittle town of Warrentotn, we t ok thi ;tage to the springs, and in an houi ere in the grounds Aa we drovi up everything was gaiety and merri nent. The cottages were lighted up the beutiful hotel was ablaze wit] [hts strains of music reached oul rs mingled with the chatter ant laughter of the people. We knev here and then that this was the place or enjoyment. The hotel is a fivy tory brick building, and the interioi pe-ents quite a striking appearance whilst the interior speoks of con rnience and comfort. WVe spent week at the hotel, and during thal time there was some excitement or and all the time. At half past tetn ir the morning nearly everybody wen in the direction of the balt-room, fo: he band always played tram tha tim until half-past eleven. Many o: he voung people danced, some sa Lr.ud anad chatte~d, whilst others wh< ci'ere not so iond o,f isaiety conwente< b umves wiih wvak;.tg around th g .li:ries etc. There might h ive biee e. groups of i.eople ait the cart tb:es nearly all thte tim.-, as play it arls was one of th'e chief amusement oo he old people, and also for a goo mt ..v voung ones. after the mu--i a over the p--op'e sttere~d atbout i rrtious groups. Three~ or fourt wei t the tennms court, four or five wet scen waking in the direction of th sritngs to get a cool draught of th dghtful and wholesome sulphu water, another party ran off to th bowling alley, whilst several couple could be seen making for "the grove. This grove consisted of a kind avenue of oak trees with nice littl bnches alt about. This was an excol lt place for a lad and a lassie (wb happened to take an imterest in eac other) to enjoy a confidential chat There are twelve cottages that belon to the hotel, besides five others which though in the grounds, are independat of it The band at the hotel was ver good, consequently many of the col tera went to the ball room ever evening to enj.iy the music and data i. The musicians rerformned c their vi'ious instruments two hou. at night, from eight until ten, excei n (Vbursdays) German ntights, who they played until a late hour C Sundays the music was grand; course it otnly coniisted of marche operas &c., and it was a delightft change from the dance music whic1 toug bright antd pretty, was we "run in the ground." We spent a week in one of 1] cottages and had a delightful tim, It was nice to receive the visits of or friends and to return tbem. Beside there was the regular custcm of dres ing very trening and going to tl hel to enjoy the music ai:d dancin; Well.
