The season was winter, but the weather de lightful that is to say, clear and frosty; and "even without 'foilage, the country through which I posted was beautifni. .. The subject of my journey was a pleasant one, 1 antici pated an agreeable visit, and Cordial wel come; and the, weather and scenery were precisely of the sort to seeond the cheerful as sociation with which my excursion bad been undertaken, It no one, therefore, suggest that I was predisposed for the reception of gloomy or horrible impressions.
