improved building's haqi . bnen built, and
there seems to be aptivity,e,G,Wpprise and
spirit among the peop).e. Coatesville has
within it all the elements Well consti
tute prosperity and adyanc,ement. It is
located in the heart or a rich Agriclxltu
;al valley, unsurpassed tor its beauty and
resources, like a diamond in a setting of
gold. They have a bank, a well con
ducted weekly• newspaper, clinr.slms of
different denominations, a college and
manufacturing establishments of various
kinds; while in the vicinity they har^
some of the best rolling mills in the
State ; cotton factories, flowing pills and
paper mills almost without number. Some
idea of the business of the plane may be
inferred from the fact timt, the :,•hipments
at this point exceeds that of any town of
its size •on the Pennsylyania Railroad ;
and indeed of some towns of twice its
size. The vast shipments, business en

concentrate here ; all produce an impres
sion ofyouthful vigor and freshness upon
.the visitor. But we will pass on and

"My foot is on my native heath,
My name 's Rob Roy McGregor;"
was an expression thongbt of, as we
greeted the smiling faces at the old
familiar man.ion; around which we
sported in our boyhood days. But now
how changed the family circle. Over in
the quiet church yiird, beneath the
shades of old " Elepzihah," the grass
grows green over 'Father, Sisters and
Brothers. The old stone building seems
but little changed; the willow tree in
the yard before the door—planted by our
own hands, many long years sluce—has
reared its towering branches far above
the house top. These sacred corridors
call to mind the scenes of our juv@nile
days, Ipben care, sorrow and anxiety
were strangers to us. Here before the
ancient fire-hearth- we oft have knelt in
the family circle and qffered up our de
votions; and there taught to respect and
reverence an Ali-wise Oicator. Many,
many changes have taken place since
then. Our playmates are seen no more;
but the grass grows as green and beauti
ful as ever. The lawn, the meadows,the
hills are not changed. There the same
play grounds, the same . rippling brook
puns before tbe deop, and the. same elnt
ter is heard in the mill, which still pro
duces the "staff of life" as in days of yore.
1-
We visited the old " Pass School
House" where we received our educa
tion, It has a sombre, time-worn look,
but has phanged but little. All around
it the scenery has very opal} °hawed
since we lett there, upwards of twenty
years ago. The forest trees have been
cut gully, and cultivated fields take their
placJ, but we notice the same qld stately
pak stands at the west corner, stretchintr,
out its branches as if protecting the chil
dren while at play. We pulled the latch
. striqg and entered the portals of this
sacred and old-time school
Here the tenderest recollections of oar
boyhood days rush upon our mind. It
has the same look, apparently some of
the same benches, the same smell qs it I
had when we entered there some twenty
4.vp years since. Where are our sehool
mates now? alas,the the clods of the val
ley rest heavily upon the bosom of many,
while others have - been slain in 'battle ;
though we can look around us arid see
almost every station in life *led by those
who received a partial education at the
'Pass School."

V.1.414 - 4.1 . t4 CITY, NEVADA.
• " March 15th; 1866.
"FRIEND RAMBO:—Two weeks a g o
left me writing to yon from Grass Val
%y, !Riled in a holiday . repose, common
kr tbe season, uttering pin:test solemn
promises of reaching home in April
next, and resolving like a since're peni
tant to cease gipsying.. In outer words
I persuaded myself to believe that in
this Fifth year of. Iteign'of-ais Celes
tial.4l,o'ness, Tong ; Gee, I shOuld date
thr;viinding up of travel. A. few days
after mailing that letter, I received a
tejpgfain to Come to Virginia City; and
the same night I was crossing the sum
mit of the Sierra Nevadas. , So much for
the dead certainty of my project, and so
much for the exterior signs of a perm,-
pent conversion, very much fear that
if you have not. yit,iyered fq.ll confidence
in my verapity, Toll. at loaspaccuse me of
indeeisloil and vacillation. I enjoyedthe trip lAge'ly, between Crrass Valley
and this place. Independently of .any
business relation, it ,was worth making
for its own sake. Early on the morning
of the 29th, ult.,
.Grass Valley and I
shook-hands. Upon the box with the
driver, fortified with -several bottles of
cocktail, furnished me by.flood convivial
friends, solicitations fir the coloric tem
perature of my 'inner man," occasionly
applying said bottle as an eye-opener, qr
day-breaker (the sun was behind time
iliis•morning) we soon lost sight of this
ois
mt:flourishing and princely town of the
Facifto Coast. At some distance ahead
of us thizi--attrill steam whistle sent its
summons op, the fre - sh morning "air, call
ing i tt •ii reliernf bands for the day-shift,
while the rubber-dased miners who - had
dellipd and drill Wand blasted.; all night
long, came up mndiii, wet, and drowsy;
loolfing out 'of sliaft like an exhala
tion bora the soil, ra:thr a resurrection
from the dead, Peeped 6'C from the nar
row :aperture of ale incline 'and like
spirits hieing away whee-‘fglow-worm
shows the matin to be near'r. scattured
••••-: ".•
here and there in the morning dawu,and
Were soon lost in the gloom and distance.
The rumbling stamps of the Ophir Mill,
a few 'Chinamen sluicing in Woodpecker
ravine, at this early hour, linger with
last recollections of Grass Valley.
At Colfax the train tears in from Sac
ramento. Baggage changed and tickets
bought, we are then crowed into one of
the stages of the Pioneer Line, and tow
ed off into a lagunct of mud, buried t 3
the axle, jolted and jarred; sometimes
embra,cing an almond eyed Mongolian or
clutching the barbaric gold chain of a
"gay 0-aq:holier." Another plunge front
AD •
foremost, into one of the small lakes that
occasionly opened in the mud,, and with
the tenacity of life, but not grasping a
straw, I found. myself when the stage
had settled; clinging for preservation and !
support, to the Nvaterfair "butter-fly
knot" "puffing rat" vilio d'ye call it? (let
a French perruquierpipe
it a name) of
a prim . hurdy girl, who resented the out
rage of my nervousness, by adjusting her
head-piece; and making pc bold several
gross of hairpins in readiness while she
stuck them, like so many stakes in a
mining claim, all - over htcr distressed oc
ciput. Again I was unfortunate, for,
with the grace ofa waiting-maid I was
desirous to be as courteous in mending
matters, as I was blameless in causing
the annoyance; hat,right liere in the. road,'
curse the spit l'the - wheels struck some
hard obstruction, stage lost its horizontal,
another rock, another plunge, and we all
fell sideways into -tb.e road. lof course
dropped the pins, for with nay back in
the mud and "still so gently o'er me s teal
ing" the hurdy on top sousinc , me deeper
at every effort at extrication, I was more
to be pitied than made sport of. Upsets
are of frequent occurrence, experience is
•
a swift friend, and with a change of!
horses we were again righted. Affairs
thus mended Jehu cracked his whip, the
stage splashed like a water-wheel,but like
Gallileo before the Spanish Inquisition
("E puor se muove") it moves; as satis
factory to us . as . the earth'S motion round
the sun, to that great philosopher. A
drunkeu,ssvarthy dark-scowling, Mexican
strikes up a bawling sound on the box
outside; a periodical hic, /de is the only
musical rest - his melody or his cups allow
him, and with, this deafeaing, discordant
Bacchanal shouting himself hoarse, up
from a sepulchre of glass-ware—the echo
of "cock-ta4ls," "gin-slings" and his
native argua ardente, we neither ride,
sail or' drive, but scoop our way into
Dutch Flat.. A few minutes only are
allowed for dinner-4 is now three o'clock
and supply your portnnfsshriat with a
sufficiency,since "nothing'till mid night"
growls the driver; "Ventre affanre n'a
point d'oreilles," says Lafontaine. Wel
had no need of tonics, appetizers, or the
driver's suggestion for gardens of vegeta.
bles are demolished, quarter sections of
roast and boiled meats are pre-emptied
and transferred, pyramids cf butter melt
away like mountain snow in the moon
tide sun, whilst coffee and tea, are sluiced
down in cataracts as if of r stomachs were
hydraulic "dig ;ins." 4.11 this time I
was paying the attention of :t troubador
to the pretty "hardy" I had damaged in
the morning. Between sips of tea, and
changes of plates, I learned. she was
going all the way tc - to heir
stock a dance lion: -

ed iny little charge into the stage, sat by
her side, and lay blissfully dreaming ou

miles from _dinner or Dutch Flat.
In my next letter I will Say something
of the country passed through, and give
a description of all objects of interest
