—There is a:pectiliar and almcist
unrivillid beauty and grandeur - in
the scenery of Stirling and its envi
rons, Admirably corresponding to the
lofty and- herdic associations which
attach thennielves so aliundantly , to
its loealities, as ;connected with the
former history of Scotland, her cham
pions; kings and martyrs. The great
natuial and artificiatetrength of its
'defences, it5,!5411 interior location, and
the beauty and wealth of its stir
rounaing,s, made it for__lnany centu
ries the capital of the ,ancient Scot
tish government and the favorite resi-
Hence of Scottish sovereigns, in the
dayswhen the C-ifitort: alone floated
I upon th - Fro`yal banner.
The lofty Castle Hill—or rather
Bock of Stirlin g -is a position of im
mense strength - 250 - feet in height;
and reminding one strongly of Que
bec, ' the Gibraltar bf Ameries..-It
finds its counterpart in the "Abbey
Craig," three miles: northward, now,
surmounted by au imposing moan
moat erected in -honor to. Sir William
Wallace. Similar also is' - the n gritted

site of the old Castle_ of
--Its western front,,,deseending froM
the Castle walls, is a rocky precipice:_
wiiile the city is built at tts eastern
bare and declivity. The southern
slope is abrupt, Act admitting the
construction of a,mirable walks and
dries along its side; deeply shaded
by the foliage of grand old trees.
Beyond, in this direction and ST-
ward, Spreads out the wide and f r

by the brun and lofty hills of Vie

Along the streets lending through
the city towardillie *tie, there-are I
`still ancient tenements once occupied '
by :;Scottish barons and knights of
renown, and one is still pointed out

grim, gray Old-Cathedritt which once
resounded with the -, vi4orotts elo

we saw the old pulpit from which he

of James VI. ~
Between the old church and the
castle are the Cemetery Grounds—of
considerable extent with well liming
ed alleys leading among pleasant
shades and ancient tombs, with mon
uments and statnary to the memory
of ear ly martyrs and reformers. The
most beautiful of Oases is one which

by James V., and the ehapeljay James

the undertaking was perhaps a suc

&concerned, it is certain that the royale
'pupil never attained to anyremarka
ble degree of sturdy manliness or
sound sense: o enjoying, however, a
reputation, for - shrewdness in one soli
tary instance—that of ,his detecting
the famous " Gunpowder Plot." We
did not seek to enter the rooms where,
some thiee centuries since, a mon
arch's intellect was thus developed;
altliough it is natural , to suppose that
thereby some idea might be ha d . of
what is commonly regarded as a myth
—,the Royal Road to Learning. . 1

But only some of the interior deco
rations and furniture, with the Royal
Star overhead, were saved of the orig- ,
final interior - of the main apartment,
from a disastrous fire. It is however
said to be a strictly accurate repro
duction: and we seated ourselves in
the veritable antique chair once oc
'eupied by the Royal assassin; whose
vietimsomsPe-cted of treasonable de
signs, had trusted himself in the pres
ence of his liege lord, rinder - a pledge
of personal security.. The smaller

which the body of the unfortunate
Earl was thrown, overlooks westward
elittle garden, still'known as that of
Mary Queen of Scots, Who for smile

just within the outer battlement, With
the initials "M. R., 1516," shows
where through an aperture she had
often gazed from this lofty height up
on the magnificent landscape below
--the wide vale of Monteith enclosed
in its.franie-work of mountains. r
In consideratian of the odium still
said to attach to the name of Mon
teith, as being`that of the betrayer of
Wallace, it seems rather unaccounta
ble that the most lovely region with
in the borders of Scotland shouldttill
be allowed to bear a title as mach in
disrepute there is with Americans is
that of Arnold.

mortal eye.

ago, meerschaum was practically un
known in Chia country. The speci
mens that 'existed were in the hands
of scientific then, or in the cabinets
of travelers, who had gathered knick

visited. -Subsequently, a sudden In-.
rove for meerschaum pipes seized
upon the people; and now there is
hardly a smoker who does not pos
sess a cherished meerschaum, the
changing complexion of which is an
object 'of greater solicitude to him
than an infant's first teeth to a
mother. Meersehaum--German for
sea-foam—is a hydrous silicate of
magnesia. It is of a soft, porntie
texture, very . light, but of varying
specific gravity, and has a greasy
feel. It is found in various plea of
Sonthern Europe, in veins of serpen
tine and tertiary deposits. It occurs
also in Asia Minor. It is easily it,
and when first removed • from The

plied. It is capable of receiving a

of business, or father a distinct
department of altt;. fur there is no
substance, nor article of use or orna

The finished pipes are tioaked i or
bOiled, in tralk or wax, the fatty sub

meerschaum, and are'acted upon by
the nicotine of the tobacco in com

prosecuted., These artificial. prep
rations are fi;ni the chips, or parings
of the natural mineral, which are re
duced to fine powder, boiled

pipe clay is added to the mixture. It
is said there is no' certain test for '
distinguishing the 'artificial prepara

is generally heavier and 'of a more

What right hits one who acts this

We object AN/ crowding into
