am making brief visit at the Plains, and as
feel 81 the ven this afternoon will throw open my
window, and as the pure, fresh air pours in my sane
tum will endeavor to give you an illumination AZ
to things in general in this charming village.


The weather has been remarkably pleasant Of late,
and the crops flourish finely All the farmers, for
thirty miles around say there will be "terribe
harvest" The flowers never, believe, looked half
50 delicious as they do now, and never were they
blooming so protusely. To New Yorkw flowers
are one OF the greatest treats in the world especial
" al ihis season OF the year. always loved them,
and trust always shall, for, in my opinion there
are but few things IN nature that can compare with
them In point ot beauty.


As write pretty girl Is coming out of a love of
cottage = over the way" She has been making a
short call, and from all appearances, the lady in a
cap" Is urging her to come again. See with what
grace she kisses her hand as she shuts the garden
gate And really, what pretty hand it is, 10 be
sure! How white and decate! And see with what
.ase and grace she trips along the green sward
The ground almost invites her TO press it. She has
increased her pace, and is now fairly run. All
wha is the matter She stops Her gsiter is unloos-
ID, and she must make it easy. What fascinating
loot she has The remains Of "that tree" opine,
aever bore such a sweet burden before Il is fxed
aow, and how archy she turns that pretty face
iround to see if anybody is looking. She fairly
loats along like flake Of down, but no! she stops
suddenly before the ''white gate" opposite. 1t il
all that is beautiful!


am afraid, however, | am getting rresome, and
Will say what have to, IN as few words as possible
There has been horrible murders in the place for
almost anage The editor OF the village paper says,
something OF the kind, just now, would be god
send, for every thing In the way Of news is "stale.
flat and Improbable"


The villagers are going it with particular loose
ness in the building line. New houses are going up
every day, and the most Of them reflect great credit
on their builders.


| visited the farm Of Hon. Joseph H. Anderson.
the present popular democratic member OF Congress
rom this district, the other day 1t is one Of the
largest and most extensively cultivated in Westches-
ter county. The reason OF its being in such fine
order because the proprietor works on il himself
and sees that every thing is done as it should be
found the honorable gentleman hard at work in
the field, and old Sol was giving his good-natured
countenance most woful scorching. He always
enjoys good health, and was ever ardent lover of
agricultural pursuits. Some of his brother mem-
bers should follow his excellent example.


The Legislature before is close, granted charter
bany, and the workmen are already drivmQ busi-
ness astonlshingy. Sinceits completion to White
Palms. the village has been quite different place.
Strangers pour In in quantities. lnnumerable, and
every thing bears a cheerful and lively aspect


The Orawanpam House," at the termination of
the railroad, is fine place for visitors to stop at
when they this way. Messrs Oakley and
smith, the gentemanly prop!ietors, spare neither
PAINS expense to make their patrons comfortable

and is a most magnificent specimen Of modern
architecture 1t is named after old Indian Chief,
who many years ago lived in log cabin on the
same ground. He in several skirmshes with
the British and at the battle of White Plains, he
distinguished for his pugnacious prcpensities
The 'Orawanpam'' will become immensely popular
during the summer.
