TRAVELLING BY MOONLIGIIT AMONG THE
SWISS MOUNTAIN!-
From. Ilie Novel of Torrington by A. E'.L.
" "" "" A few hours after, Hi.-nry found
himself on the romantic road which
wound through the lower region of the
Alps; it was late in the season, and the
biglicr ranges of those mountains were
covered with light wreaths of Sl'lOW,\\’l1l(:l)
opposed tlicmsclvi-s with :1 dazzliiigwliitir
ncss against the blue ether; and so ro-
mantically beautiful was the scenery, that
Henry was frequently surprised into
an iiivoluiitury admiratioii of it. For
some hours they traversed these solitary
passes without €ll(.‘.()llllltf.l'lllg‘a. liunnin be-
ing; not even one oftliose sin ple herds-
men, who rlesceiiding from tho mountain
recesses uiid sucking the slieltcr of lower
asturcs, guide before tlicm their burnt-
ess and peaceful charge.
About IICO -, the silence was interrupt-
ed by a sound like distant thunder. Uni‘
travellers paused to listen.
I'€V't~.‘l)l'l'&tt(:d slowly auiong the clifis and
gradually die-tl_.nway in distance.
“ There is a hunter above us, among
those cliffs to the right," observed Albert
to his in ~ster, “ tlic chamois are plentiful
in those parts."
While he spoke another discharge was
heard, accompanied by the same line ef-
fect of revcberation, which, licnrd aniong
the grand and sublime features of nature,
produce on the mind of the listeiicr a
t~'ens:ition almost indescribable. Noon
yielded to evening, and eve to night; and
us yet Henry had held on his way. A
bright moon slowly Flsljlg, threw over the
itmjvstic Ventures of the laiulsc-:ipe a soft
brilliancy more to" cbiugly bi-autiful than
the glare of day-—aiid ‘the clitls whose
projections were touched by the silvery
rays, while tlieirdark recesses were yet
“’“‘l”5 l“ Sllwle, revealed themselves to
‘lie illlafzicativc eye in a hundred pictur-
esque and fanciful form=. Henry had for
sometime sought an asylum for the iiiglit;
but as yet saw nothing that bore the iiiost
distant resemblance to a lmbimtion,
The valley, from which he and his ser-
vant werc now ascending g adu-ally tiar-
rowed ; and at length contracted into a
dark defile, overhuiig on either side by
the gigantic rainificatioiis of the ncitrlf-
b iring mountains. The path bad iam-
perceptibly wound higher aniong the
cliffs, and the sound of it torrent, which
for some time had broke on the stjl1m_.5s
of the night, came more strongly to their
cats.
The road now appeaieil to take a new
aspect at every step ; and winding close
to the edge of a precipice, was rendered
difficult and dangerous, from the gloom
which pervaded the defile; for, forming
I gorge between immense rocks, and
lhlclily uvcrshadowed with trees, the
cheering influence ofthe moon was deni-
ed to the midnight travellers.
The roar of the torrent now became
almost deafening, and as as Henry guid-
ed the wearied animal, on which he rode,
slowly along the narrow and rocliy path-
way, be bent over the saddle, and en-
deavoured to obtain at vicwof the scene
below : through the gloomy fir trees, that

“It might easily be both the oiio and
the other, and yet not be remarkable tor
either quality,” muruiercd Albert, us he
slowly, and carefully followed his master
up the rough ascent. ‘
The result proved the truth of Ilcury’ 8
prediction; and they found on wiudiiig
round the projection, that they had guin-
ed a liftliltier, and much more commodi-
ons path. _Emergcd from the duikiicss
of the dt-tile, they also received the aid at
the inoou, which poured it fitllfloocl of
silvi--ry light over the ll1i|j='8l’.l0 scciiery.
The snowy suniuiits of the mountains
glitti-rcd in her rays, while those rccediiig
in the distance, veiled in a light vapour,
gradually softened on the eye, and uppit-
rcntly blended into ether. One splrrud d
star shone pre-t-mi: ciitly in the dci-p se-
rene, and hung suspended over the crczst
of tuount Bcriiina. It was Iie.nr_v’s fa_-
vorite planet: be had often gazed on it
with delight in former hours ; and nowat
midnight-in tlic solitude: of the Fwi.~‘>'
mountains, he gazed upon it again. mid
breathed a sigh to the i;uc.inory of his tia-
tive land. "' " " ' _
Tlicy rode on, mid at length, a group ol
clinrlots uppea ed bcy(_)_nd the clump of
firs to their right. Thr-.y slackened their
pace to recouuoitre—nll was quiet-—thc
moon-beams seemed to sleep on tho rude
thatch of the cabins, and a deep tranquil-
ity hung over the face of nature. The
rest of these simple lierdstucn is deep and
dreamless,thouglit Henry; “I am loth to
disturb them.” A light vapour floitcd
over the moon’s disk while he hesitated,
and a chill breeze rushed down the val-
ley and wliistled slirilly through the durk
firs that grew thickly around this spot—-
tbe breeze however died away, and no
soutid disturbed the midnight hour, save
the sullcn roar of the water-fall. which
came heavily on their cars tlirough the
stillness of the night.
Henry bud puusi-d before the door of a
but whose outward appearance prmniscd
r ther more ,;ouifort than those its viciii-
ity; lie was about to desire Albert to ap-
ply for arlmittaiirc, when the latter ox-
claimed that he saw :1 light shine through
the crcv.c.es in its rude wall, and quitting
his horse, be cautiously approached the
door and listcried: he returned to his
master and assured him that be heard
vciccs within. “Knock then and tell them
that a couple of travellers request the
shelter of their cabin for ‘-he uiglit.”-—
Albert knocked at the door, and immedi-
ately the voices within ccascil, and the
low growling of it do: was heard. " '“

GUESSING.

“ Guess ri,i.{ht ;” there it is; it is guess-
ing, and iiotliing cl.-tc. Coinpaiu-itivcly
spciikiiig,tliei'c is nothing but guess-work
in one half of the rccitatious in one half
nftlic common public schools. In the
study‘ of gramnizir, particularly, the in-
structions oflltc book and the teacher are
not understood, being far from simple,
analytic and natural. The pupil gets no
clue to the mcuiiiiig of his lesson, no
starting post or guide-bo:—ird, and tlie.i'c-
fore cannot advance in discoveries him-
self. He comes up to recite witliouta
scrap of l«'.nowlcdgc of the matter, in
which he can feel any confidence. - \\'liat
can lie doliut guess and continue to guess
till he guesses right 1
He knows nouns and verbs; as, “Men
may obtain kiiowledge." He tegiiis,
“ Men is a coinnioii noun, siiiglar num-
ber, and uonitive case to may obtain ;
nointive case governs the verb ;" and
such is his rapid and mumbling story,
every time a noun in the nominative casc
occurs. “ May obtain is a verb, dicative
and agrcss with men; verb must agree
witli the nomtivc casein nunibi rand por-
soir.” And such is the song on every
verb that occurs, wliatcvcr the moi e or
tense may be. If he gets thv number
wr- ug, he can guess riglit tbc very next
time. lftlie mode or tense is wrong, his
conjectural pt)Wel'8 may be niorc .-revert-ly
taxed before he “hits it. i'ig'ht.” 'I‘lioi'ou,9;li
