river The whole miles is an unbroken stretch of scenery We pa- several rapids on the Ottawa and the most beautiful waterfall we ever saw is in close proximity to railway Arriving at about we found dinner waiting at- a commodious and attractive resoit House erected in a charming situation about fed above the river- the opposite hank of which rises to a height nearly feet covered with verdure and most exquisite autumn tints The tourist would be inclined to ling er here were it not fur the beautiful lake scenery that lies beyond A we hoard the liamt- sonrc and commodious steamer Me teor of the

vents the boats from going any fur ther down the river The lake takes its name from the language and means deep water It extends from a quarter of a to over a mile in width and is feet deep A peculiarity in the wharf here that strikes a person front Western On tario is that it has a floating dock because the water rises feet at this point in the spring and gradually declines through the summer months The scenery along this route re minds us of the Saguciiay river and in many respects surpasses the Hudson of the way the Province of Quebec has ihu advantage and at another time our own
