in There are several Large rivers which the train runs along mic ofa. hund- redsot'miles crossing them here and there from one side tounother. Ledges cut in the solid rock where the train travels probably 3w teet peiTendieular above the river. Along here is the most attractive scenery on the eontin. ent for those who never saw it before such as your humble servant.) Noth. ng can be heard with the noise of the train on the rock bottom and the roar- ingot the rivers dashing over the rocks thetrein track rises hundreds at feet .bnve the level ot the river. I feel l unable to give an account ot the great views ot the country, wnsequently I only give a short synopsis of my travels m oaperienee. Arriving at Victoria I was compelled to stop there tor a ”at which greatly retarded my pro m in getting to the end of my The tunnels, built to protect the line from snow slides that come otf the mountains for miles long are found here and there. Along the Wt"otetm was: of the mountains there are sew r- al valleys apparently adapted in fruit. It seems to bea healthy coun- trythrough the mountains from Cal. gary to Vancouver. In limlden Itll) miles west of Winnipeg there is a nar- row valley a Couple ot miles lung were a low families live t on it there are a tew acres of crop and some fruit trees planted and they seem to make a comlortable living. Along this river the C. P. It. runs for miles. It has some wonderful bridges of course now and again where we can view the beantitul rivulets that run almost perpendiet1larly off the Rockies. There are some lead and other minerals tnuml along the track. It is 100) miles from Winnipeg to this part ofthe mountains. Another ex- perience which is most interesting is the tunnels where the train passing through them causes great darkness. 400 miles east of Vancouver the en- gineer was rmuested to stop the train in order to afford the passengers a view of the scenery, the most horn ible gully with its walls over a thousand feet deep. The two walls are about 3 rods apart, smooth and perpendicular. Along the Rocky Mountains is most beantitnl scenery. They are nearly all covered with snow. At the toot of these mountains it is so warm that it is almost unbearable to wear a coat. These mountains are beyond realiza- tion in height. Some of them are thousands ot feet pettpdiealarly along the Kicking Horse River, which is worthy ot its name for its rapid cur rent, etc. Winnipeg. chief town of Manitoba, situated on one side of a vast level country is ream-ml at last on May 1tlth. Weather tine and warm. Leaving Winnipeg the country is extremely lore! with soft hogs as much as two or three hundred acres in places. Large prairie liresare seen hrreaml there, which travel lbrinileslike the roiling Waves of the sea. Passing through Qua” elle the land surrounding is low and marshy with very little crop grow- ing. Along the C'. P. R. line is a beautiful valley extending 30 01-40 miles. Along this valley are a num- 'her of ranches of cattle and horses. Many Indians are seen camping there. There are many fine towns which seem promising, while in other places villages are built of tamarac logs and portions of the globe or earth to roof them. In the good old County of Grey every thing had a green aspect when I left, while at the Sault there was no visible trace ot greenage to be seen. Some tine scenery to be seen while passing through the channel between Michigan and Algoma which in places is only half a mile wide and 50 miles long. The Sault is a very large town about 2 miles in length and not quite so much in width. Numbers of boats may be seen here. At times there are as many as 12 or 15 of them seen on the line travelling back and forward. The soil in the vicinity ot the Sault is ofa reddish nature, apparently clay and a mixture ol sand, etc Arriving at Port Arthur. which is a beautiful town though situated in a low place sur rounded tor miles chiefly by swampy land. From there to Wabigoon lies a large area ol waste land good for noth. ing on account of its rocks and low marshy ground covered with scrubbv white birch and tamarac. Such is also found at Rat, Portage. Along this Tough tract of land are seen many huts and wigwams. The inhabitants ot these huts generally belong to the feather wig tribes, (Indians) while in some other cabins a few bachelors live together. Meditating on their manner ot living a few of our fair maids in the east Would he highly acceptable to the occupants of these miseiahle hats, who bv all ttI'p6'ar'anc6s, would be struck with amazement had they seen man's chief worldly happiness, fair woman. ..

Leaving Victoria on the 26th of May on the Mcxico boat making for Alaska up through Queen Charlotte Sound. The sea got a little heavy and a nun: her of the passengers on board had taken sick, causing trouble with their a ppetites. , Vegetables in Viet ria were in use on the Ytjth of May and everything else accordingly.

Victoria is a city with about 22,000 or a population and is situated ina very open space where bouts constant- ly coma: and go. In it there are 20 churches; one of those in the history ot the past was under the pastoral charge ot the late Rev: Donald Fraser, who was so well and favombly known in l’riceville and surrounding country, and by the way it was he who sprink. led your humble servant with water in Baptism. I had the pleasure of hearing a sermon preached in that! same church, also of meeting Mrs.’ Fraser and some ot her tamily. I Special Shoe Sale. New Ih'aek Cashmere, special prices fhrr.yaitt day.
