Farm ers were astir in the fields, some Blonsh ing between the rows of standing cern, others swinging their cradles in the oat fields, 'or:opening up the heaps of fragrant grass and clover of yesterday's, mo wing, Xb-e panorama of farm life became more attractive, as the morning- advanced. After' Arden Park station was nassed. th e landscape gradually broadened until the travelers saw that they were in .the centre of a great elliptical plateau bound ed b; lofty mountains, i A wonderfully rich agricnltural country is this and well cultivated also. The corn stood in lone linea like regiments on-"dress parade, and rows of wheat shocks glistened in tne morning sun like the tents of an en campments Bright clear branches dash ed swiftly over-their rocky, beds, their sinuous courses marked by thickets of elder and by clumps of sweet briar gay with blossoms.' Fat oxen and clean wholesome milch cows browsing in their pastures, raised their heads to look for a moment at the strange monster that went sweeping by. . The forests, ; "dressed in living green," varied the landscape and added to its picturesque charms. Occa sionally at the cross roads -would be a group of women and children gazing with undisguised wonder at the to them novel sight. - ..'- Aside front (be loveliness Of the land scape, and the fertility of tbe land, the most noucaWe feature of the ride from this city to Henderson ville were the ev idences of thoroughness in the construc tion of the road bed, and the Jaying of the tracks The few trestles and bridges are built of selected timber and are all securely braced, i The cats 'are - wide enough to prevent the caving of their walls from obstructing the traca.,: 1 - Aiucn Jilling has been done already. and the embankments have' broad foun- i dations and ouGloienily wide margins at their tops to insure against and Dlunrins of cars dowp their sides in case of derail ment. . - : All that experience and skill could ac complish has been done - to make thee twenty-two miles of road between here and Hendersonyille as safe from acci dent as possible. The train ran smooth ly without- any perceptible jarring or bumping an unusual thing for a new road. When this road shall have been bal lasted, as it soon will be, it. will be as firm and smooth as any in the country. Jb rom Heddersonville to Tryon City, the road winds its way among the moun tains, the roughest and most difficult part of it being the three miles between Saluda and Melrose, where the grade is somewhat over 233 feet to the mile. Tbe recent change of guage: the sharp grade and the decayed condition of many of the cross ties will for a Bnort tame com pel conductors and engineers to run over this part of the road more slowly than on the remainder. - A large force of convicts are engaged in repairing the old road bed, filling hollows over which the track is now-on trestles, laying new ties, and doing -whateveVMse ' is needed to put it in the Bailie excellent condition as on all other parts of the road. - .- ' From Tryon' city to Spartanburg the track- passes through ; a level country: much of it under cultivation and all of it suitable for farms, orchards and vine yards, or for dairies or stock raising. The many bare skeletons of trees mat Btand in -these fields, . the . log, cabins, none of them old, and the few new frame residences to be seen between Polk coun ty and Spartanburg, all convince the traveler that most: of this section has been settled but recently;;: for it Isto outward appearanCe'the counterpart of , what the- country . between Rochester and Buffalo was when the first railroad was built between these cities All the ; region between '.-the Blue " Ridge - and Asheville,' although it has been 1 partly settled for many years,' has bat a small population compared to that .'which will occupy it now that the railroad is built, and qiiick tran6portatioh;-ha3 become ' a certainty Instead of an ever, present but ever postponed hope. : Years hence, (and not very .- many) . all -that 'Elliptical plateau, that has been only ..utlined and not fully described; will be one of the great garden .'spots of Western Korth Carolina; sending its products to Ashe-: ville and Spartanburg and to many oth er cities. : In other' words a' loeal busi ness will eventually grow op on the line of this railroad large enough to . pay its operating expenses,. While with its coi nectionsat either, endr it must become an important thoroughfare,' and derive large, profits from through, freight and passenger traffic.

It -is .passing strange: that this beautiful flower exhibits the coyness capriciousness or pride of blooming in the dark hours of the night It blooms on a very rough and coarse stalky anJL perhaps like human pro totype, .raised by beauty into pub lie worshtp.shames to be reminded of hei fustic birtrf, by -rude present- But , the splendid jower- is Wei worth hunting inthe darkness, and thertificfal lightbrihgs out the full impression of its ioyeliness. .

TheA Cereus is a native of Brazil, or - other parts of tropical America. it is . pne oi tne niany forms ot cactas.comtosed of a rough spiny stem, which extends itself to length of many feet, sometimes with branches: but without - leaf, The flower bud forms -at any season of the year, on any part of the stem. apparently without choice of place, and - grows" andswells, until some night it begins to burst, and by mid night is in its glory of a few fleeting hours: for it perishes with the com' ing pf the day The flower is much like the water lily, nymphcea lutea. of the eastern counties, though con-t SiderablyJarger. The calyx is com pc3edt)f many lanceolate . leaves of delicate greenish brown; within, the corolla spreads out its many leaves of similar form, but " of the purest white. A long pistil from the Cen tre shoots out its length far beyond the cup, and this is capped with a pure '- white . star shaped stigma. Around the pistil most delicately interlaced are numerous thread like filaments, delicate and transparent as spun' glass, on each of .which rests r a delicate anther,' also of pur est white. The ' whole has an in tensely artificial look: "... though art would fail in the effort at imitation. night wears on, each petal ex ids. And recurves outwardly, un til ; the flower assumes a globular form: andHnenr the louca of decay and death falls upon it, and it is gone, this flower to revive no more. From Mobganton. - Ourf.
