Their trip is Purely one of pleasure, combined with a sirong desire to tread the heather of their boyhood's hills and view once more the: scenesof their early associations. jt is the general desire that they should return from their 'visit refreshed and in vigorated, for few men in the corn- /nullity om- m ty can number so many among their `ends as Messrs.
