alai astir, before the roe of the butt had
fairly crept over the hilltops, and with
a large portfolio under his arni, con
-
ethane; sketching pataphernalia, and
his camp chair in, ins hand, he passed
througb the rose -scented genital, and
QUt into the dewy fields 'beyond. Pos-
sibly the cause for his early rising was
an eager deem to begia a sketch im-
mediately tlf a wild,. romantic Spot
which he had marked for, a picture ; or
more probably it was a `desire to see
bow the broad lands which he coveted,

tered; halting for a moment, and gazing,
