And new X would ask all thcas who long for u breath of fragrant pice and balsam te den their mountain suits, and taking atari In band accompany me en a short jaunt te "The Adirondack," the great wilderneaa of northeaatern New Yerk, a region that combines mere attractions In the way of magnificent, varied scenery, and rare health' restoring finalities than can be found In any ether part of our oeuntry, at least In the eastern portion of it. THREF. DIVISIONS OF THE ADIRONDAOKS. 8. R. Stoddard in his charmingly written and comprehensive little work en the Adlrondaeka, briefly outlines their topo graphy In the following short paragraphs whleh we oannet de better tban te quote t "The Adirondack wilderness, as known te the public generally, may be divided into three general divisions or systems, whleh collectively entertain the great bnlk of vlslters,and are representatives of the whole; namely, the Saranae and St. Regis waters of Franklin county, whose natural gateway Is Flattaburgh and Fert Kent ; the moun tain region of Keene, North Klba an.d Lake Placid, in Essex county, with entranea at Westfert ; and the Blue mountains and Requette waters, In Hamilton county, reach, ed by the way of the Adirondack railroad from Saratoga. "Of these sejtlenB the first mentioned haa beoeme the mero widely eelebrsted as a region where fashion and ashing la admi rably blended, and baa Its patrons who are looked for as regularly ns the aessens. The second is less known in fact; but its grand mountains and lovely valleys have become lamlllar en the canvas et great painters; while the Raquette region baa an air el newness and morning freshness, as if Just awakened from n long and refreshing sleep, and la making rapid atrldta in popular favor. Eaeh section, while pesseslng something of the characteristics of the oth eth er, has Us own Individual attractions; and while connected by natural highways, ever whleh the nomad efien gees, they still te a considerable extent presorvethelr indi viduality, and each is complete and suffi cient unto Itself." The "Gale-Besntlfut " te the lovely Valley of Kene" for which we are bound, is Weatpert, en the western shore of the clear placid waters et Lake Champlaln. Frem thonce stages take the tourist en, stepping at Ellzibothtewn, a pretty, pictur esque village built en a level plateau, the county seat et Essex county. Then en In a Bllghtly northwestern direc tien, ever one of the meat enchanting of meuntiin reads,. hedged in with groves et water maples and silvery poplars, with drooping elms and clumps of aiders, and fringed with a bewildering mass of sweet wild woodland flowere, growing in un trammeled luxuriance. Snowy immor immer telles and daisies, blue-bells and purple asters, queen of-the-meadow and sun sun neeked golden red, festoons of climbing elematU, aad above all, cool feathery fern, most honorable of mountain plants In their long and ancient pedigree. Gradually the read begins te descend, and at the feet el Helt's Hill the beautiful valley lies before us ; an oasis et tender green in the wlldnerceas, surrounded by a perfeet amphitheatre el mountains tower ing one above another, rising massively dark and rugged In the foreground, reeed ing in long sweeping undulating lines, and soft-swelling, " niotlen-hlnttng curves ;" the silent shadows of the clouds plsying In ever varying aspect ever their surface, uniting, separating and smiting again. Flowing through the valley from the aenlb come the sparkling watera of the Au Sable river ; a vlracleus, turbulent moun tain stream, through whose limpid clear ness gleam the glistening sand and peb bles of Its rocky bed. Aa we ge7e in mute admiration at the seene before us we involuntarily elasp our band?, and with geed old Isaae Walten reverently exclaim : "0 Lord ; If these be Thy gifts te Thy creatures upon earth, what beat Theu net prepared ter Thy aalnta in heaven I" MOST lNHFIRINCi SCENES. The outlook from the "Tahawua Heuse," (the euphonious appellation ter clond clend splltter in Indian language) ts very beautl fal. "Towards the northeast Is the sharp cone of Hnrrlcane; in the southeast the Giant lifts bis craggy head ; In the south Dlx and the Au Sable mountains are piled up In broken masses agalnat the aky, while in the centre is the gracelnl outline of the eentral beauty among the grand mountain aentlneli the 'Noen Mark' of Keene val ley." Frem this central position many charm ing excursion can be mad e In the way of walks and drives, each se varied in Its char acter tLa te the lever et nature it Is like a continuously unfolding pineiama of beauty. Se meny picturesque views attract the eye in every alrectten that the valley haa be come the tspeelal haunt et artists, several of whom have their permanent homes perched en Its rocky blettj. There are mountains te be climbed, by sturdy walkers, Item whose heights the valley 1'ei spread out below In hushed and pascefel repose. There are shorter wslks te Mess fJaseade and Rearing Broek, where the water makes a descent of nearly 300 feet in a succession of daring leaps, te Hull's Falls and Phelps Falls, the latter the most winsome of mountain cascadea that comes splashing and danclnrjdewn its roeky race way, from one parapet te another, scattering In its (all a shower of silvery bubbles that glint and glitter la the naming sun, re minding one of the willful, pretty petulant 'PrlsefM Elsie " In the sweet old Ueratea story.

Hurroundleg it cm all aldea a nearly perpendicular wall et recka, mere tbaa 500 feet high, rlese abruptly from the water's edge, eeeting sembre shadows f.r across lie surface. On the further aide of the pond, ea aa Irregular roeky plateea, a gentlemen from Bosten baa built a stoat charming camp, complete la all lie equipments. First oenea the kitchen, a rough bark hut, fur nished with stove aad all neeeesary oeoklng utensils ; a few steps higher up a pretty rnetle pavilion, overlooking the water, serves aa dining end reading room ; and still higher two large eanvaa tents give ample sleeping accommodations for quite a party. Here Isolated from all the world by therdeep unfathomable water of the pond below, and palisade of reeks, towering like silent sentinels, behind, we can well Imagine the sleep of the Just, lulled by the lethssn balm et "mind nurtured" spruce and balsam. One of the most beautiful drives la te the Aa Bsble lakes, alx miles distant, ever a very fine read built by a syndicate of gentleman from Philadelphia, "who have purebased all the traet of oeuntry lying teuth et Keene Val ley, including within its limits the Au Sable lakes, and the great mountains surrounding them, extending west te take in Mount Marey, originally called 'Tahawus,' the highest peak of the Adltondaeks." The objects of the associa tion are " the preservation of the forests, lakes and atreama In their natural beauty; te restock the water with fish; te protect the game; and te render mere accessible, by reads and trails, the points of Interest within its domain." As these lakes with their surroundings are called the "Switzer land of America," we would have liked te have given some short deeorietlon of them, but net having as yet been able te visit them, en account of heavy rains, we will have te leave them for a future letter. WHERE JOHN BROWN'S RODT LIES. The valley can beast quite a number of celebrities in the way et famous guides, eta, te whom we would like te give a pass ing notice; indeed net far cfl, near North Elba, Jehn Brown, "The Old Man of Ossa Ossa watemle," bad hie home among the moun tains, and lies burled mid the solemn pines, beneath the shadow of the rock he loved se wellbut our J ettlngs have grown te sueh an unpardenable length that we can no longer trespass en the patience of your reader?; We cannot close, however, without brier mention of "mine host" of the Tahawus house, Gee. W. Egglefleld, "a tohelsrly man," aoeordlng te Stoddard, one en whose strongly-marked llnments and rugged obaraeter nature has left her Im prest ; and of "tiny," the little grand daughter et the beuse, a diminutive "lassie" of three summers, net much bigger than a midget. But Tiny lias con densed Inte her small oempaet frame all the fearlessness and free-born Instincts of a genuine mountaineer. She treada with no babyish toddling step, but plant her feet firmly In the way the wants te go, or hold ing out her three Inches of akirt with both hands, she pirouettes with ease and grace aoreas the room, keeping perfeet time te her own singing of the net altogether estfaetle couplet, " Can you dance a polka 7 Yes I can, All around the room with a nice young mm." She has net the slightest oensolousnesa of what shyness ts, and yet she Is never obtru sive, or peshing, or rude. The pet of all the guests, she has already this season, through their kindness, eaten a store of pes. nuts and sweetmeats that would long age have aent any carefully brsught up elty child te a premature grave, but It haa net even told en ber temper. Bweet and gentle, bright and eheerful she meets yen with perfeet confidence and trust, and with In trepid oeurage reams from morning until night all ever the plaee, taking lite as she finds It. Dear little mountain maiden, what will her future be? We could wish that, shielded from the rough blasts et life by the "Everlasting Hills" around her, she might grew up as pure and sweet and winsome as the daisy et her native valley. A .

EDITORS or Intelligencer We "lower-enders" have been wondering whether the get ting up et law suits would net be profitable slnee the luek that at tended one of our "enterprising business" men who finding himself deposed from the leadership of the Eden oernet band, his occupation gene, "get law" from a Celeraln Justice as easily aa a man In Jacksonville te-day would get the yellow fever, and had certain members of the band arrested for larceny for removing their band wagon without his consent. Se weak was hla case that when it was called en Monday and this ex leader'a tes timony heard, Judge Patterson dismissed the case but directed that the oennty should pay the costs, and this "enterprising eltlzen," the prosecutor, oelleotod soma ?22 aa his share et the boodle. Is It necesury In Lanoaster county te efler sueh premiums or bave we one of these Infernal "surpluses" te be gotten rid of T In the latter event Judge Patterson's manner of disposing of It is quite novel, but down here In Eden It does net meet with the approbation of the humble taxpayer.
