Tlie tnitli was 1 take in I'taw and lit'CtlfuHy i herein tin vftlualile dicta of its eloquent proprietor, a Celo'Tatcd parliamentary ami pl.ittbrui orator. 1 had iii sn accustomed to iive eredeuec to 1'u i oiifi jVit assurance of this u'entlcmau, that we vcre ni'les in hind the Northern States of the American Tnion ill all that wa5 useful and nood, and that we could not do better than copy so fJiiuinn; model in all things. I had read and le arj the bold statement," mde in defiance of btatisticfi, that America was tloatini: peacefully on the tidu of prosperity into the haven of universal empire an empire won bv bloodless means, of course; for what nation, unsaddled with an aristocracy, would dream of war. while Britain ivas sinking into deeripitude and decay All this, and much more, had I heard and read, and I had iKdieyed that Britannia ought to sit at the feet of her tlighty olfspriiii; for instruction, and to re model her old institutions after a republican pattern. But, as not seldom happens, a nearer view uf the United States did not precisely eoiiliim the loud assertions of the Americanizing party in the British press and senate, and I was gradually losing my ideal admiration for transatlantic libertvandcus touis.

After the rapid dinner, and the inore leis uieiy supplement of juleps and brandy cobblers imbibed in the bar room of the hotel. I asked a colored waiter if my airon and mules were forthcoming, as 1 as d'esirC'iis of reaching N'auvoo before dark. 'Iss, massa answered the negro, and whisked offwith his napkin to inquire after the liii" erin" cipiipage. 3 The said he was goinc to Niravoo too, and begged the favor of a lilt, which I willim ly conceded. The mules and wagon, with their teamster soon rattled up to the door; my hill was promptly paid, my baggage transferred to the vehicle the Major and 1 climbed Lo our places, and, directly wc started How comes it Major, said that there is no lme open to Nauvoo Tlie Major knocked the ashes of his ci" ar as he replied, 'Wall, I suppose it wouldn't mv Kail to Fort Madison is all right and spry because Uncle Sam has property there; hut Ur.3 not a dune could be drawn from Washington treasury to make a line to 'And from Nauvoo, westward through Iowa, to said I.

with alfectcd oarelessuess what would you say to the prospects of a railroad in that direction: My heart throbbed audibly as I spoke, for all my feigned indifference, and I listened with anxiety for the Major's plv. I had nut lorn to wait. 'That depends." said mv fellow traveller with sagacious deliberation, on the sort of rail you wiK aoout. is it a line to go no farther than ruu oiiccl, anu pernaps your Court, that you are speakiair of, mUtcry' Capcl wait street and Canel Court: Upon my life I hardly comprehend returned 'Moonshine, llummerv, make believe, sleepers, rails, stations, all of paper, that's what I mean, rejoined the Major, somewhat impatiently. 'But I spoke of a lona fuh concern of a real railway, honestly made and fairly worked answered 'what would vou say to that replied the Major, with infinite contempt, say Let me seen the ironies Trot 'cm up to me, sir.

Just let me have a look at the simple ones that are at the head of the busi uebB, ana i tell them what think fast enough. Ko, Nauvoo is a rising place, a neat locnuou, out it can wait tor a rail one while, tin less every sage plant on the prairie turn to silver Alter this I asked the Major no more questions. We reached Nauvoo, and throuiru the dusk I espied the slunjled roofc of its houses, the bold ljluli's of limestone, the rushinir eotl'ee colored river, aud the uuUuished Ijuildiutr lots with their heaps of wrtch aud rubbish We put up at the General Jackson Hotel. I had a letter of introduction to Squire Park of Nauvoo, a gentleman in the Hut boat interest, who owed his title of Squire to his bein" in the commission of the peace. But on repairing to his house I was doomed to disappointment the more vexatious because Mr." Park had been eulogised by Judge Tips as a man who knew the West thoroughly.

Squire Purk was gone to Cairo on business, was nut expected back before the end of the mouth. Ou, consulting the map I carried, I found that a place called Keosauque was the nearest of the few towns in Iowa to th.e line of railway, real or imaginary, in connection with which my name, and tho'se of other men of respectability and substance, were flaming, iu advertisements and on the broadsheets of a prospectus, throughout the British metropolis. I set oh" to Keosauque, mounted on an Indian pony, and accompanied by a aiide in the shape of a wiry backwoodsman, "in an enduring costume of leather, and who irave accommodation to my portmanteau behind his saddle. For some miles we rode in silence over the apparent ly uuuuuiim tea 01 grass, mottled with weeds and flowers, and occasionally studded with lone farmhouses and mai.c fields, or by herds of "razing cattle. Those half reelaimed mustangs "are uot the most pleasant mount for a timid 'rider nor am George Bulkclcv of Stamford Hill, a very adventurous horseman; and before we had got far, 1 began to wish the brute 1 rode would desist from what seemed au alternation of starts and Btumbles.

My guide, a good humored wild man, observed my embarrassment, and undertook its removal. 'See here, Colonel, said he strangers in the West are usually decorated with cites 'you mustn't keep the rein so slack as that, nor yet hold vour hand up level with voit cravat, or, scalp me, but vou'll be spilt! Mustangs want a light grip on the bit. So steady now. Stick in your knees, Colonel, and scorn to ketch hold of the pummel o. Do as vou see toe do; give him a touch of the spur, but mind his kicking for mustangs kick, tlicv can lou'll do nicely, Ichabod was a very skilful riding master 7 mstinct, I suppose aud, thanks to Ins extremely forcible instructions I was soon on better terms with my refractory (iu id nipcd.

On we rode, over the waving grass through the rank weeds, through the "belts of Cottonwood timber and maples that skirted every streamlet, raid past the swampy bottoms where sluggish waters wound like wounded snakes VVC dined on dried venison, jerked beef parched corn, and hominy, at a larm which did duty for au inn, and slept at another house of the same character. Mext day we resumed our route and as we rode towards Keosauque, I ventured to ask Ichabod if he had ever heard of the Great Nauvoo and Nebraska Hail tray. I hac been hitherto averse to propounding this query for how could I tell whether the interests of mv iiilonnant might conflict with mine but with hiH rough frontiersman I felt I was safe. He, at least, was no rival speculator no shareholder in rrdrSnr 11 Priz I again 'from Nanvoo Ichabod shook his head Greek to me Colonel, and ihat a Ja' ac 'HOW IS It possible Ut there caniave been a' rah wV b'cCi 'ffl SUltkTs l' 'varc Surely viart of Lbe r.J V.rC Tr00? an wcred Ich i bod; '1 Illinois born, but I'm' Iowa bred in this Stale I was raised; and I don't believe there a thing happened over the border sin'1 ,.,.,6 uuffimu uier uiu oonler sii, COllId mount a horse, he it liniib.f ,1 ing Indian, runaway nigger, or Yankee without my hearing Stop" (and he Lis knee with a palm as hard as irou) 'lve got it. You're talking of Harvey's Folly ggAnd I thought the young backwoodsman would have tumbled off his horse in the extravagant burst of mirth which this discovery produced.
