Pont de Moulin. 514 ^ Week in Jersey, smoothed. The arms of England are now its insignia, and for mottoit bears Dieu et mon droit. We have fallen upon more peacefultimes, and probably the day will come when wars and rumours ofwars will be heard of no more throughout the world. Near here you come upon some of those curious and interestingremains which carry us back to the times of the Druids, and are fullof mystery.
