Feb, 1l6th found us in the port of Algiers, where we spent the morning. This, the capital of the chief French African colony, is a city of 250,000, about one fourth of the population beâ€" ing Arabs of various tribes. It is a busy sea port. In some ways it reâ€" sembles Montreal. The European city The other place of interest in Granada is the Cathedral, chiefly because of the Royal Chapel which houses the splenâ€" did marble tombs of Ferdinand and Isabella. We even saw their coffins, from the door of the crypt. Granada is famousas the last strongâ€" hold of the Moors in Spain. If we had marvelled over the arabesques of the Alcazar in Seville, the similar but much more extensive decorations of the Alhambra evoked still greater admiraâ€" tion. The wonderful old building has been splendidly preserved, and is probâ€" ably almost as magnificent as when Ferdinand and Isabella, the ccnquerors of the city, there received Columbus cn his return from the discovery of Ameriâ€" Gradually we ascended to the snowâ€" line, then down into the fertile valley of Granada. The road was excellent, and is full oOf hairâ€"pin turns with preâ€" cipices on the one hand or the other, We had a cautious driver. The views were beautiful. Early morning of the 14th found us disembarking at Malaga. Here we took cars for an 80â€"mile drive to Granada, over the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Dear Friends:â€"Before leaving Gibralâ€" tar a few of us Canadians called on the Governor, Sir Charles Harington who was at one time connected with the Canadian Corps and who in the latter part of the war was Chief of Staff to General Plumer of the Second Army. The General received us very cordially, enquired abcut several Canadian army officers, and showed us around the apartments and grounds of Governâ€" ment House. He drew our attention particularly to a dragonâ€"blood itree, estimated to be azout 2000 years cld. General Harington is engaged in the writing of the life of General Plumer. a second letter is given, this time speakâ€" ing of Gibraltar, Malaga, Algiers and other centres. Last week The Advance was pleased to present its readers with a most inâ€" teresting and informative letter from Rev. Fr. J. R. O‘Gorman in reference to his Mediterranean tour. Herewitn Rev. Fr.
