Truth to tell, the comfortable, old-fash ioned farm-house, at the foot of the narrow and rocky ledge, had a most picturesque position. Away to the southward wound and smiled the fertile valley, a goodly pro portion of whose acres appertained to Grand father Crowniushield, and along the edge thereof swept the curves of the railway, af ter-what seemed its birth in the cloven ledge so very near to Katie Crowninshield's home- As for Katie herself, with her sweet, fresh face and her merry brown eves, the little valley and her nestling home were all the world to her all, indeed, that she had ever known, for she had been but a wee thing when Grandfather and Grandmother Crowninshield became father and mother to her, in place of those whose ' -faces she could hardly now remember. Neither did it ever occur to her that she was in any sense ah heiress, for she seemed rather to belong to the valley than the valley to her; while the idea, if any thing had brought it to her mind, that her good old grandparents were not to live forever, would have turn ed the brightest June day to the gloomiest December. But, in these latter years, one great en tity had painfully struggled into Katie's world, with an apparent mission to unite the valley with that great unknown, which lay leyond the hills and ledges. Katie had seen the ragged rift in the granite wall, watching it curiously from door or window, and listening for the dull reports of the blasting charges, until the barrier was pier ced and the railway crept out and found its wav down through the valley; and, ever since the trains began to run, she had con nected with- them the idea of a life that was almost human. She had waved her hand kerchief enthusiastically to the very first tram, and had been liberally responded to by passengers and conductor; and, although she had been then a little girl and was now a young lady, she had never yet dreamed fit anv vmmaidenlv boldness in rivnir the same white signal of welcome, at times. when the great railway mystery came rush ing out of the cloven wall. There was one train in particular to which. Katie s atten tions were at last pretty well restricted a through -express which 'went by at eight o'clock in the morning; and there was an- eiffht garden-gatea little, after her return from she had been from passing train.

Editors : -I have noticed an article in the Gazette relative to the Eng lish language, a subject that is very inter esting to the most of intelligent persons. Says the author of the article: " "It has bieu calculated that the English language c mtains about thirty-five thousand words; but if we inquire into how many of these thirty-five thousand words are in daily use, we shall bo perfectly astonished fit the smallness of the number." I agree with the author aud Relieve, as he says, that not more one hundred are in ;use by children and the illiterate u But the most curious and! interesting thing of the English lan guage is its' derivations and compositions. There is an author who says that the Eng lish language is composed of only 15,734 words. I believe that he has made a great mistake: but he goes on to show he is cor rect by saying our laws were derived from', the Norman; our military, terms, from the French; our scientific names, . from the disense is takincr an tli hrain is riouslv weakened.
