Those who can recognlze It by the clew I give are at liberty to put two and Lwo together, Most people who have heen to Switzerland will understand where the hotel of Les Trols Boges s situnted, They will know what Is the chief hosteley of the large town al which thie mojority of tourlsts entering and returning from the relon of the Alps usually halt, at least for a night, a8 from It diverge the maln channels leading to thoe chofcest scciery of the Hittle Republle. They will recollect that the inn Is charmlngly placed on the banks of the Rhine, aud that ita balconies and windows look out upon and absolutely overhang the rushing river, not 100 miles from ita falls at 8chaff- hauren. Enough, then, as to the locality ; now, 1% to my coming there, and what happened., ‘The superflucus energy of a Briton slx-nnd- twenty years of age, slx-feet-twn in height, and strong in proportion, finds no better outlet than serambling over peaks, passes, and gla- clers, and I had becu dolng this, on the oecaslon of which I write, tomy licart's content for five or slx wel It was not my first experlence of the Alps by many; but it had, on the whole, heen the least enfoyable, The companlon who was going with me disappointed e at the eley- enth hour, and I started alonc, the limited timo for iny outing not brooking deloy jand, although at tinies T fell in with pléasant people, 1 was hored by my solitude.
