England is not sopicturesque as in the Wcst and North West, hut it has an interest of its own, Itis not " manufacturing country like much of the othet.. These was no " Black Country " to be seen on the wav. By 5 new. we reached Folkstone where it channel steamer was waiting to con~ vey us to Boulogne. The Dover Strait was calm hence we had a pleasant Yor age. Approaching. Boulogne from the sea when the tide wan out as we did, the appearance of the docks struck us as most peculiar. The docks are construct- ed of a wood framework resembling". frame linrn before it is boarded, only the tinuhers in the dock are heavier. They are three stories high so to speak so as to enable passengers to land in any tide. ClitulrivR up two flights of stairs we were at once in the open square, stone- paved and hare, which faces the custom house and station. Passing along an indicated road to the former we were for the fl mt time conscious that we were in a foreign country. A raw-honed, lantern-jawed French dame peered at us suspiciously and fh.ed at main French the query whether we. carried in our luggage any tohncco, spirits ornnylhing tintinhle. As if we knew what it vacil.. lating legislature of French Deputies was pleased to hold as such I It was so absurd. But of course. we had nothing of such a. character and we signified as much by". shakeof the. head and the long-haired French Custom Officer let impose by Simply putting a O witha piece of chalk on each piece cf our lug- gage. We thanked her, of course, and the next minute we were bounced into a stulfy car-similarly constructed to those in England, There were four: other passengers in our compartment and the first thing we saw which in our snnplicity astonished us was that one of the ladies (?) was leisurely enjoying a. cigarette. Yes, she did it with all the grace and case of an old smokcrus no doubt she Was tho' she wasa young woman of rather prepossessing appear- ance and manner. The next peculiarity noticed was the train whistle. Any- thing more disagreeable l have seldom heard. I cannot describe. it. Across between a shreik and a scream cut short in the middle by some hand laid ruth- lessly on the throttle and then dying slowly In " long. penetratinf. exasperat- rug, i,'t'y"tt12,fh',7, soum resembling the dying shriek o a demon, Such it appeared to us, so used to the hanuoui- ous sounds of the Grand Trunk and C. P. R. whistles. The thought could not be resisted that if such whistles pleased the French ear, we could not envy their taste for music. Mr. Mactavlane whose ear is particularly sensitive to sweet sounds enjoyed it, I think, least of all. Herein the very heart of the French Capitol, surrounded hy people ot. a. strange tongue and strange gtite withdraw from the turmoil arm, ab of street and square and plaza to At down a. few notes for you. From my hint. let. tee to this there. is a gap of a few days, this gap will he filled later hya. few notes on Old London where the time was spent, and where I hope to spend a longer time on my return from France. Yesterday it 2.15 p. in, Mr. Machulane, Miss McDonald and myself left (lharing Cross station, London, via the South Eastern It. It. for Paris. The road led us though historic Surrey and Kent, the home of those brave people who did so much to secure from tyrant king and baron the recognition of theirjust rights and the supremacy of English Law. As we rapidly steamed tlnough rather a fiat hut well cultivated country I could not hut think of the brave days of old, When Tyler and Cade and many other such figured in English History. But 7 pun. saw us started on our way to Paris. After leaving the town about wlcch Icannut say much except that it "tg,"',',',',',',' to be none too clean, we skirt edt e sen southwards for some time, thro' a country as level as the sea itself except here and there Immense sand hills standing white against the evenin sky, between us and the sea 'Cjlll?f. Along the mouths of rivers the tide washed back for miles into the country and in places dykes of considerable length and he??? haveheen built to protect the has ndman in his labor.

A --Next in foolishness to the young European "bloods" who fight duels are the newspapers who give columns of space to a description of the barbar. ous practice, which was prominently in evidence in Paris on Sunday morn- ing last. The roads are good, that is to say bet- ter than Canadian roads. but, they are tar and away inferior to those of Great Britain. They are crooked and unfenc- ed and even unhedged in most places. They nupeai to go through tields in the most dined route to attain the end hut, supremely indimwent to the smaller de- tails of curyatu e. The country as above, stated was level. Much of it was drained but not tile drained like otr own but open ditches in which the water lazily made its way to the lint er levels. On each side of these ditches is often platted a. rowlof 2T'tatJ.i such trees! Memo; manned t eir. t but they are a run-loamy to one 'idtllt to them. They grow up to a height of 20, 30, 10 and even 50 feet with never a branch except " close clum) of leafv brancnes at the very top. Ge,',, they reach this height according to locality, a series of small branches start up all around the stem and twine it round from base to summit until it looks as if some huge leafy caterpiller had wound itself in close folds all the. way up. They _sma|l branches gradually till out until the treasure branched with a. thick green foliage just like other trees, Miles and miles of these trees may he seen in all stages of growth along the ditches and roadways. When branch- ed and full grown and when a close hedge of thorn or privet forms a hose for the row the effect is ve' y pleasing. The last REVIEW came to hand and it was indeed welcome. It seemed strange that the dear old home news was liter- ally news from a tar country. With coiitinued good wishes The harvest is at its height. The usual grains are being reaped and stow- ed away with the .. mihtiie trut" which must result frmnlhe. exclusive. use of the old-tinte sickle 0r veiping hook and a peculiar implement Imlf ct.adh. h L” scythe which were the ouly reaping machines to be seen. \anen too were seen in the fields as if inured to it, and enjoying it. Well may the mus and daughters of (human rejoice that they are cast in a landwhere such hack- breaking instruments of torture need not, be relied on to get the harvest safe- ly housed. But we are now in the city and there are so many things to he noticed that I shall try to give you n more detailed ac- count in another letter. Much of the soil along the shore is useful for providing fuel. Immense beds of peat. are on every side. Neatly piledup stacks of peat are drying in the summer sun and gaming ready for winter consumption. First, to begin with the houses, tlfes are mostly of stone, brick or concrete or a conglomerate of two or even all three of these. They are low, long and nar- row, with small windows and nan row doors. The front, all along the. line. is whitewashed and so fat looks clean and tidy. But the back of the houses, the gables, the yards ate the opposite-not so mneh time ot money spent in beauti- fying there, The roofs are generally steep and slated or tiled or even thatch- ed with hay or straw. They may be comfortable enough to live,in but I douhr if they would satisfy the least fastidious of our (hey (Bounty farmers. Let them pray they may never have to emigrate to Franee tho' it Is a land overflowing withwnot milk and honey, trut-wine. 3 The roads are good, that, is to say helm ter than Canadian roads. but. they are‘ We realize more and more that we have left Anglo-Snxondom. The counv try, tho' it fair one and under the glor- ious climate of France should be fairer still-a veritable paradise for the tiller of the soil-is not what you would ex- pect. It may be we saw the worst of it bat even the better cultivated parts show indifferent farming. It looks, even far out from the city what Goldsmith pictured it in the irtttnortartsaveller--f shall tend that again with greater zest than ever.
