meeting. were 4 to 6 acres of land
covered with horses and buggies. The space
covered with human beings depends on densi¬
ty. I will not guess at the number. The
congregations were attentive to preaching to
a limited extent. I noticed one very promi¬
nent feature among the young ladies. The
most of them are well developed in form, com¬
plexion rosy aud bright, denoting good con
stitutions, acquired, most of them, from active
employment. slender The young men, I notice, are
in proportion, color not so bright as
it should be, though they boast of the best
turnouts, the fairest and smallest hands, even
surpassing Enry the ladies in the latter respect.
young man that is able is going to col¬
lege or buntin" some easy, o'r shady place,
whether it suits his/ talent not. What is
the use to buy trail trees unless you have the
proper soil to plant them in? Learning is Very
desirable, and all should acquire it to the ex¬
tent of their ability and talent to receive. My
prediction, from observation, is that the pres¬
ent generation of young ladies will surpass
their mothers in constitution, and that the
young men will degenerate and fall below
the present standard of man, physically speak¬
ing.
