It was my original Intention to bave stopped for tbe night at Landeck j but finding that tbe public conveyanees on tbe following day were not suitable as to time, I yielded to the temptation of a stellwagen about to start for tbe onward journey to Feldkirch, and loft tbe place in about half an hour after I reacbed it.

But, indeed, tbe great Sigbts of Landeck, as of so many otber places in tbe Tyrol, are not wbat is within its walls, but wbat surrounds them ; and tbese I was enabled to see and to enjoy, as well as if I bad delayed my journey anotber day.

These ladies, agreeably to the rules of the founder, Vincenz de Paula, take the vows for only one year. In the house there is a hospital for females, and in the village a school, which the nuns attend every day. From Imst to Landeck, the next place, the post is three German miles, instead of two, the ordinary distance. Landeck is a village

snugly niched in a corner of the valley. The mountains rise around it in wild confusion, and a torrent foams by its side, crossed by a wooden bridge. An antique castle, built upon a rock, looks down upon the houses. Here the Inn and we separate. The river turns abruptly to the left, and we pursue our course towards the Arlberg. From Landeck the posts are Fliersch, Xasserein, Stuben, and Dalaas. We then arrive at Bludenz, entitled to a remark as a substantial and comfort able little town. The name

It is two posts distant from Landeck, that is, abont tour German or twenty Engl i sh miles.

The

elevation of St. Anton ahove the sea is 4314 feet, being about 1670 feet higher than Landeck. September 7th .—We proceeded on our journey at thè usuai hour of live, climbing the Arlberg by a steep but excellent road.
