THE TRAVELLERS' GUIDE FROM ^kgarai d'^W^ ta tl^e S^0t<^H.^|| Niagara Falls, being the great centre of attraction for all Nor* thern tourists, and the point at which travellers from the United States, who intend taking a trip down Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence make their entry into Her Majesty's Dominions, we select it as oar starting point, and supposing that the reader (without our aid) has already done the Falls and neighborhood to his satisfaction, and, in all probability, has in turn been done to his c^tVsatisfaction, we will mercifully omit all mention of the wonders of Niagara, and proceed at once to LEWISTON, a beautifully situated town, about 7 miles from the Falls, on the Niagara Biver. It is a place of considerable importance, and stands at the head of navigation on the river. In 1813 it was destroyed by the British, and rebuilt aft^r the termination of the war. At this place the tourist embarks on board a splendid steamboat (the City of Toronto) which runs twice a day between Devoted Kxelusively TO THE SALE OF 111 » ftif li J,PARKIN LISHEO V « ^ EVERY DESCRIPTION OF BRITISH & CONTINENTAL PACTiBEO LiCI, PRICES MODERATE. 280 Notre Dame Street Montreal. «- this point and Toronto. On the opposite side of the river standi the village of QUEENSTOWN, A small, pieturesque town, not of much commercial importance, but noted on account of the memorable battle that took place on the neighboring heights in 1812, when the British most gallantly defeated the enemy, and drove them across the river. Just above the village stands (visible from the deck of the steamer) BROCK'S MONUMENT. This monument was raised in commemoration of the British General, Si): Isaac Brock, who feSl in the sanguinary action above mentioned. His remains, and those of his aide-de-camp, Colonel John McDonald, who died of wounds received in the same battle, are buried here. The first monument was completed in 1826, and was blown up in 1840, by a miscreant named Lett, who was afterwards imprisoned for this dastardly act. The pre- sent handsome shaft was erected in 1853, Its height is 185 feet ; the base is 40 feet square by 30 feet high ; the shaft is of free- stone, fluted, 75 feet high and 30 feet in circumference, sur- mounted by a Corinthian capital, on which stands a statue of the gd[lant general. The view from this monument ifl most gor- geous. The eye wanders with untiring delight over the richest imaginable scene of woodland and water. Below flows the now tranquil River Niagara — calm and majestic in its recovered sere- nity. In the far distance, on either side, stretches the richly wooded landscape, speckled wtih villas and cottages. The whole view is terminated by the magnificent sheet of Lake Ontario, which stretches away, like a flood of light, to the horizon. NIAGARA TOWN, Stands on the Canada shore, at the mouth of the riv«r, facing Lake Ontario on the one side and the river on the other.

Its surroundings are full of varied and historical associations. The drives in the vicinity are most refreshing, and the scenery beautiful. Latterly it has become quite a fashionable sutnmer resort. A large new hotel, located in a beautiful grove on the banks of the river, affords ample ac- commodation to visitors. On the American side of the river is FORT NIAGARA, Which has many historical associations, but which we have not space to touch upon. The English General Prideauz fell here in the battle of 24th July, 1759, and the French garrison afterwards surrendered to Sir Wm. Johnson Leaving Niagara, about four hours's sail brings the traveller to TORONTO, The principal City of the Province of Ontario. It is situated on Toronto Bay, a beautiful sheet of water, four miles ip length by two miles in width. TorontOy signifies in the Indian language, a place of meeting. In 1823, it contained but 4,000 inhabitants ; now, it has a population of about 1 5,000. Although not picturesque, it is most agreeably situated ; the view from the western e^ktrance to the harbor, and from the island, is varied and striking ; the spires and cupolas afford a most agreeable diversity to the di*'- tant outlines of the City, and mark it as a place of wealth and enterprise. The long lines of houses, and the rectangular blc ks of buildings, intersected by streets running towards the four cardinal points of the compass, with here and there a handsome church or an elegant edifice, strike the eye of the stranger with an agreeable surprise. Toung in years, it has none of the associations which render Quebec almost classical ; but it is as proud of its beautiful bay and aquatic sports, as Quebec is of its ancient walls and citadel. Among the places of interest are — The Queens Park, the College Avenue, University Buildmgs, Stb, RiE Brothers, IMPORTERS OF . niMiOIQ, lli(BM3ISI a iimiMdIilil ^S4 Notre Dame Street, [NEAR MoQIUU,] 3Vwd:oisrTR.EJLXj. ■ ••» Strangers and Tourists visiting the City, will find at this Establishment a full and well selected STOCK OF GOODS. 49^E^erienced and attentive Clerks only employed.

Travellers can go on hoard, oh tain their staterooms, and make the passage hy the Lake ; or, if they prefer it, can go hy G rand Trunk Bailway to Kingston, and there take the steamer. We will now descnhe the Towns on the route in their natural order. The first port at which the steamer touches after leaving Toronto is PORT HOPE. The location of this town is very pleasant, the site extending over a valley and the surrounding hills, and though owing to natural ohstructions, it is rather irregularly laid out, the appear- ance it presents, viewed either from the lake, or any other avenue of approach, is very picturesque. A steamer plies regu- larly hetween this port and Rochester, N. Y. Population of the town ahout 6,000. COBOURO, The next stopping place, lies seven miles helow Port Hope. The town, which is lit with gas, is very prettily laid out. The hroad and spacious streets, for the most part intersecting each other at right angles, are adorned with several fine puhlic buildings, and numerous el^nt residences. The most noticeable amongst the former are, Victoria Hall, (containing the Town Hall, Corpora- tion and County Offices, erected at a cost of over $100,000,) the Churches of the various denominations, and Yictoria Ooi- lege. The latter is under the management of the Wesleyi^i Methodist Church in Canada. It has faculties of law ind mediome in Montreal and Toronto. Cohourg has a populattoi of about 6,000. Midway between Port Hope and Cohourg is <« Duck Islimd," on which is placed a Grovernment light houie. 0r#iiw®ll9 Aiui^tt A €#• 90 WeUingtan Street, Montreal, IRON FOUNDERS AND MANUFACf UBEES OF Marshbank's Foundry Cupola, [Which smelts Sixteen pounds of Iron with one of Goal] Fire- Escape and Extinguisher ilic.j die.

ANNSTT, 90 Welliiigton Street, ItontreaL »■ :.• KINGSTON Is pleasantly situated at the bead of the Thousand Islands, Eiver St. Lawrence, where Lake Ontario, the last link of the chain of the inland seas of the west, together with the Bay of Quinte and . the great Cataraqui Creek, are united with the mighty channel which conveys and empties their waters into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. It occupies t&e site of the old French fort of Frontenac. As a place of defence it stands next in strength to Quebec. The bat- teries of Fort Henry are calculated for the reception of numer- ous cannon and mortars of the largest calibre. These, together with neighboring martello towers, form a formidable and efficient defence against any aggressive movement which might be directed against the city. Opposite Kingston are Wolfe and Garden Islands, between which and the city lies the bay, a beautiful sheet of water. On the other side of the Islands is Cape Yincent, in the State of New York. Kingston possesses two colleges, and has several handsome public buildings, such as the Court House, Custom House, City Hall, Banks, Post Office, &c. The population is about 15,000. Adjacent to the city is Portsmouth, where are located the Pro- vincial Penitentiary and Eockwood Lunatic Asylum. Before proceeding down the St. Lawrence, we will briefly notic,e t^e principal ports on the American side of Lake Ontario. CHARLOTTESVILLE, At the mouth of the Genesfte Eiver, is the port of entry for the City of Bochester. The river h navigable for steamers five miles from its mouth, as far as Carthage, whence passengers can take the railroad cars for Bochester, two miles distant.

It is the terminus of both a railroad and a canal, connecting it with Syracuse and the New York Central Bailroad. The population is about 20,000. SAGKETT'S HARBOR> A small town lying on a spacious bay, is 45 miles below Oswego. It was founded in 1799 by a Mr. Sackett, of Jamaica, L. I., from whom it took its name. From its position on Lake Ontario, it is admirably suited for the purposes of a naval station, and was, in fact, the American headquarters of the Lake Ontario fleet in the war of 1812. It is now the seat of a military post, called '^ Madison Barracks.'' CAPE VINCENT Is a pleasant little town, lying at the head of the St. Lawrence, so named in honor of one of the pioneer settlers — M. Vincent Le Roy De Chaumont. It is said that this place was selected as the retreat of the Emperor Napoleon, in case he should be obliged to seet an asylum in the United States. Cape Vincent is con- nected by railroad with Chaumont, Brownvillo, Watertown and Borne. THE THOUSAND ISLANDS. The Lake of the Thousand Islands iS an expansion of the St. Lawrence, at its emergence from Lake Ontario. It is the most mmerous collection of river islands in the world. It commences little below Kingston, and stretches down the river between 40 md 50 miles, for which distance the St. Lawrence is between 6 md 12 miles wide. Notwithstanding their name, the number of ;hese islands far exceeds a thm9and; there being at least ,500. They lie partly in Canada, and partly within the bounds )f the State of New York ; the boundary line between the United States and Canada dividing them into about equal parts. !^owhere in the world is a more beautiful scene presented to the mty 9 UIPORTXB AXD DBALIB Ul Watches, Clocks AND Jewellery. -^ 9 (0 Cutlery Plated-ware AND Toys. 426 & 428 NOTRE DAME STREET.

As the steamboat is piloted through the intricate ch:.DDels, dodging here and there among the islands, showing each moment new and ever- varying beauties, the scene is beantiful beyond description. Islands of all sizes and shapes are scattered in profusion throughout the waters ; some covered with vegetation, others bare and ragged rocks ; some many acres in extent, others measuring but a few feet ; some showing a bare, bald head, a little above the level of the water, while, a short distance off, a lai^e island or rock, crowned with a considerable growth of pine or cedar, will rise abruptly out of the water, to the height, probably, of 100 feet or more. This is a famous spot for sporting ; myriads of wild fowl of all des- criptions may here be found; and angling is said to be rather fatiguing than otherwise, from the great number and size of the fish. On the American shore, opposite the Thousand Islands, is situated CLAYTON. A village formerly of considerable importance as a lumber station. This is a favorite resort for fishing and shooting parties, who make it head quarters while pursuing their sport. Oppo- site, on the Canadian side of the river, is GANANOQUB. A flourishing town of about 3,000 inhabitants. The beauty of the islands and river, as seen from this point, cannot be sur- passed. During the last five years it ban become quite a favor- ite resort for tourists and pleasure seekers. From its position it has almost unlimited water power, which has been so far utilized that the town is now one of the most flourishing manufac- turing towns in the Province. After leaving Gananoque, the next port, on the American side, is the little, rock-perched town of ALBXANDRIA. The situation of which is extremely picturesque and romantic. JPrescottf Canada.

TOUBISTS AND PLEASURE SEEKEBS will find this House a most desirable resort, situated, as it is, on the shore of the beautiful St. Lawrence, a short distance from the Thousand Islands, and surrounded with choice fishing grounds and unsurpassed scenery. FOUB FIRST-CLASS STEAMEBS continually cross between this port and the Oity of Ogdensburg, making a trip every thirty minutes. L. H. DANIELS, Proprietov. 17 Some two or three miles below the village is a point from whence one hundred islands can be seen at one view, the beauty of which can scarcely be imagined. This is a fine fishing ground, noted for its maskalongCi which are of large size, many of them weighing from 40 to 50 pounds, and often as much as 70 pounds. They are taken with trolliog lines, and it requires considerable skill to land one safely. At the the foot of the Lake of the Thousand Islands, on the Canadian shore, lies the town of BROCKVILLB. So named in honor of General Brock, who fell in battle at Qaeenston Heights, in 1812. This is one of the most pleasant towns on the river. It is a delightful resting place for travellers, a favorite resort for tourists, and a desirable home for permanent residents. All the steamers stop here. A steam ferry boat plies every half-hour between this place and MORRISTOWN, ' a pretty little village on the opposite side of the river. Twelve miles below Morristown, also on the American side, is situated the beautiful City of OGDENSBURG, one of the most wealthy cities, of its size, in the State of New York. The streets ^re wide, and lined with beautiful shade trees ; the public buildiogs very fine, and some of the private residences are magnificent. It is a great resort during the summer season for pleasure seekers, and being the terminus of the Ogdensburg and Eome Railroad, it is one of the principal points for travellers to take the steamers down the Eapids, for Montreal. Immediately opposite Ogdensburg, and connected with it by a steam ferry, is PRESCOTT, A town of about 3,000 inhabitants* About a mile below the town, at a place called *' Windmill Point/' are the ruiqs of an m OF HARTFORD, CONN.

Daniel's Hotel an establish- ment kept in first class city style will afford those who may desire to spend a day or two at this place, as good fare and as oomlbrtable a home for the time being as can be fonnd anywhere. L. H. Daniels Esq., the proprietor, thoroughly understands how to keep an hotel, and never fails to give his guests satisfaction. It is worth while to remain a day or two inlPresoott if only to have the pleasure of being entertained at this House. It has for years been a favorite resting place for travellers. Prescott is the southern terminus of the St. Lawrence and Ottawa Railroad, whidi con- nects Ottawa— (the capital of the Dominion)— with the frontier. About five miles below Prescott, is Chimney Island, on which the remains of an old French fortification are to be seen. ¥he first rapid of the St. Lawrence is at this island, called the GALOP RAPIDS. The next town, on the American side, is Waddington, and in the river, over i^ainst it, Ogden Island, from the name of its proprietor. On the Canada side is Morrisburg. A short dis- tance below Morristown is Chrysler's Farm, where an American force was met, on its descent to Montreal, in 1813, defeated and turned back by a detachment of British troops. Thirty miles below Ogdensburg is Louisville, from whence stages run to Mas- sena Springs — distance, seven miles. These springs are said to have proved effectual in restoring debilitated constitutions. LONG SAULT RAPIDS' For some miles after passing the town of Prescott, the scenery of the river rapidly changes. Then commences that magnificent series of rapids of which the Lons Sault is one of the most re- markable, it is a continuous rapid of about nine miles in length, divided by an island in the centre into two ohannels — the Amer- (i^^AWii ffl(D^lIL, Cornwall, Ont., Unquestionably the best Hotel between Montreal and Toronto.

Formerly the Americaa or East chan- nel was mostly run by steamers, but of late the Lost Channel is mostly used. This channel presents a grand and terrific appearance, the water being lashed into a white foam for several miles. The passage on the southern channel is very narrow, and such is the velocity of the current, that a raft, it is^said, will drift the nine miles in forty minutes. When a steamer enters within their influence, the steam is shut off, and she is carried onward by the force of the stream alone. Great nerve, strength and skill are necessary to pilot the vessel, and several men are required at the wheel.'' '* One of the most singular sensations we ex/crienced" says a distinguished traveller, *' was that of sail- ing many miles perceptibly down hill." This going down hill by water produces a highly novel sensation, and is, in fact, a service of some danger, the imminence of which is enhanced to the imagination, by the tremendous ro x of the head- long, boiling current. The Canadian Navigation Company, how- ever, have never lost any lives by accident, in descending the rapids. CORNWALL, At the foot of the Long Sault, on the Canada side, a neat little town of about 5,000 inhabitants, contains some of the largest cotton and woolen mills in Canada. This is a very pleasant sum- mer resort and is much frequented by tourists who find good sporting and fishing in the neighbourhood. The Hotel accom- modation is unsurpassed, the Ottawa House affording such as is not often found outside of the large cities. Everything is neat and clean about the premises, the attendants are obliging, and the proprietor Mr. W. H. Dunkin unremitting in his attentions to his guests.

The tourist will observe from the deck of the steamer the old church, litting its tin roof above the neigh- boring houses. The bell, hanging in this church, is associated with a deed of genuioe Indian revenge. On its way from France it was captured by an English cruiser, and taken into Salem, Massachusetts, where it was sold to the church at Deerfield, in the same State. The Indians, hearing of the destination of their bell, set out for Deerfieldj attacked the town, killed forty-seven of the inhabitants, and took one hundred and twelve captives, ^^ among whom was the pastor and his family.'' The bell was then taken down, and conveyed to St. Eegis, where it now hangs. The boundary line between the United States and Canada passes near this village, and the course of the St. Lawrence is bereafler within Her Majesty's Dominions. This is the name of that expansion of the St. Lawrence which begins just below Cornwall and St. Regis, and extends to Coteau du Lac, Many little islands are scattered here and there over its surfaoe. Coteau du Lac is a small village at the foot of the lake ; and, on the north side, over against this place, is Grand Island, Just below are the Coteau Rapids, The Cedars is a small town just above the rapids of this name.

It is a favorite resort during the summer months for Montrealers. The Lachine rapids begin just below the town. Opposite is CAUGHNAWAUGA. An Indian village, lying near the entrance of the Laohine rapids. It is said to have derived its name from tbo Indians who had been converted bj the Jesuits, who were called " Caughnawauga's " or " Praying Indians." This is evidently a misnomer, for instead of praying, they were given to preying^ and were distinguished for their predatory incursions upon their neighbours in the New England Provinces, and had a most surprising fondness for scalps. The bell that now hangs in their church, it is said was the pro- ceeds of one of their pious excursions. The following is a des- cription of the descent of the Laohine Eapids, taken firom an American newspaper : At this point (Caug^nawauga) a canoe comes off and brings an Indian. He comes on board to pilot the boat over the La- chine, which is the last but most dangerous of the rapids. As the boat moves onward to the rapids, all the passengers, even to the novel readers, are anxious to get a good position, in order to have a fine view of the heaving, breaking and laughing waAr. As we enter the rapids, we appear to be running upon a small grass-covered, rocky island. Indeed, the bow of ^he boat is so near that it seems impossible to clear it, we look to see if the pilot is at the helm. Tes, there stands the captain at his post, in front of the wheel-house; and the Indian pilot with three other strong men, are at the wheel ; and as we look at the calm ooun- tenance of the Indian and see that his brighteye does not so D BOSTON j^IR LINE. rjifi Pullman Day and Sleeping Gars THROUGH WITHOUT CHANGE.

He guides the boat among the [slands and the rocks, over the rapids and through the intricate 3hannels as easily as a skillful horseman reins a high-spirited char- rer. As quick as thought the boat glides away from those rocks rbiob it appeared impossible to avoid ; but the pilot apparently is sensible to fear, though not to the responsibility that rests upon am. He is aware, and all are aware, that one false move and all lis lost ; for \he current is so swift, the seas runs so high, and the Iboat is driven so rapidly, that one touch upon a rock would shiver iher to atoms. Although the passage of the rapids appears to be so dangerous, a sense of pleasure and excitement takes the place of fear." In about half an hour afler leaving this last rapid the boat passes under Victoria Bridge, the longest and largest bridge lin the world, after which the traveller comes in full view of the City of Montreal, the commercial and financial metropolis of the Dominion, is also the most populous of Canadian cities. It is situated at the head of navigation for ocean vessels, 540 miles from the Gulf of St. Lawrence, on the Island of Montreal, which lies befcweeii the broad St. Lawrence and the rapid Ottiawa — the two great rivers of the !N"orth. The island extends some thirty-two miles in length, and ten in width, and is considered the garden of the province. The surface of the island is level, with the exception of the eminence of Mount Royal, which rises 550 feet above the river level. The settlement of the town was first determined on by the first explorer, Jacques Cartier, in 1535, at which time an Indian village was located here, called Hochelaga. The perman- ent founding of the city, however, did not take place till 1642, and in one hundred years of growth, thereafter, it gathered a population of only 4,000. It was under French rule till 17 60, TOTPTQ ID %J^^ Of iTJCiXiXiX O |iiIor IgoI ui THE UNDERSIGNED HAVING OPENED A FIRST-GLASS BOOT & SHOE -IN- No. 375 Notre Dame Street, Would respectfully iftfbrm the Ladies qf Montreal^ thai they will find a First-class Assortment -OF- LADIES', MISSES' AND CHILDBEN'S gfim.

In 1832, the cholera raged in Montreal with great violence, carrying off 1,843 inhabitants in a population of little more than 30,000. In April, 1849, a political mob burnt the Parliament buildings, and the seat of Government was, in consequence, transferred to Quebec, subsequently to Toronto, and finally to Ottawa. In July 1852, a destructive fire laid waste a large portion of the city, burning 110 houses, and destroying property valued at $1,363,264. Not- withstanding these reverses, the city rapidly recovered, and to- day numbers a population of nearly 170,000 people. Years of industry, intelligence, enterprise and labor, have produced a mighty contrast. At the beginning of the present century ves- sels of more than 300 tons could not ascend to Montreal, and its foreign trade was carried on by small brigs and barges. Now, ocean vessels of 4,000 tons, the magnificent floating palaces of the Eichelieu Company, and ships of from 700 to 2,000 tons, from all parts of the world, lay alongside the wharves of the har- bor, which are not equalled on this continent in point of extent, accommodation, approach and cleanliness. Montreal has now over 200 miles of streets and lanes, some of the streets are nar- roTi, but the majority will compare favorably with any on the continent. Nowhere can finer or more solid public building be found. The buildings for commercial and other purposes would dignify any city. There are none in the United States which present finer specimens of street architecture than are iound — not isolated here and there, but in long blocks and throughout the whole city.

There is a famous peal of bells in the left tower, one of which is the **Gros Bourdon,^' weighing fifteen tons, and haying a deep bass intonation. The prospect from the right tower, which can be ascended by payment of a slight fee, is wonderfully wide, looking out upon the broad waters, the islands and shipping of the St. Ijawrence, the rapids of Lachine, the distant Vermont hills, and the suburban villages. The seminary of St. Sulpice adjoins the Cathedral, and is surroun/led by spacious gardens and court*yards.

Five miles below Sorel the river expands into a wide lake nearly twenty-five miles in length, and nine miles in width, known as LAKE ST. PETER. The river St. Francis here enttrs the lake from the south. During the descent to Quebec, a great amount of shipping of every class will be passed, and immense timber rafts will be ob- served, floating down t% the great timber mart at Quebec, somt- times in single rafts, and sometimes in many, combined into a floating timber town, populous with hardy lumbermen, whose songs enliven the monotony of their voyage. ^^^,^„T,S«.«^,,,^^~^ i^yuu THREE RIVERS.

THREE RIVERS, Situated midway between Montreal and Quebec, is one of the Idest settlements in Canada, and has Convents and Church difices of considerable architectural pretensions. The town was drst settled in 1618. Population about 9(>00. Tourists would do well to spead a day or two at this place, there are beautiful drives in the vicinity and good boating it»id ishing. There is also excellent Hotel accommodation — Farmer's Hotel being noted far and wide as a favorite resort for the tra- veller, First class fare, — elegantly furnished rooms and clean 3eds are what is required to make a Hotel what it should be, and these are all to be found here." Mr. Farmer thoroughly un- derstood the art of making his guests comfortable, and does it. The famous falls of Shawanagan, second only to those of J^iagara are but twenty four miles from Three Elvers, and those of the Grand' Mere 13 miles further up the St. Maurice. The cele- brated St. Leon Mineral Springs are also 24 miles from here. The Chaudiere River ente*'s the St. Lawrence about six miles above the City of Quebec. At this point the precipitous banks of the St. Lawrence increase in height, and the eager stranger catches a distant view of the towers and battlements of the grand old northern City. Before reaching the town, " Wolfe's Cove " will be pointed out, to the left, that memorable spot where the brave commander landed his forces under cover of darkness, and scaling the pre- cipice, fought the battle which changed the destiny of the western empire. The round martello towers, in advance of the defences of the city, on the plains of Abraham, first attract attention, and you sweep in full view of the defiant battlements and towers which crown the natural walls of old Quebec — the seat of ancient dominion — where jealous nations contended for supre- macy, and shook its rocky throne with the roar and clash of con- tending armies.

QUEBEC Was founded in 1608, by Samuel de Champlaign, on the site )f the Indian village of Stadacona. No city on the Continent so jimpresses the tourist, by the startling peculiarities of the site and lovelty of its general aspect, as this ^' Ancient Capital,'' or stamps its impress so indelibly in eye and memory. A massive rail of hewn stone, of nearly three miles in length, and varying, )ut everywhere of forbidding height and thickness, with pro- Jjecting bastions and frowning cannon, communicating with the (outward world by five massive gates, encloses the better portion [of the Upper town. The CITADEL Will perhaps prove the point of greatest interest to many, from the historical associations connected therewith, and from the fact that it is considered an impregnable fortress. It covers an enclosed area of forty acres, and is some three hundred and forty feet abo^e the riv^f level. The zigzag passage through which you enter the fortress, between high and massive granite walls, is swept at every turn by formidable batteries of heavy guns. On the forbidding river walls and at each angle or possible com- RUSSELL HOUSE CORNER ANN & GARDEN STREETS, • ^ This modern built Hotel is open as an auxiliary to the St. Louis Hotel. TERMS MODERATE.

Ditches, breastworks and frowning batteries command the approaches by land from the famed '* Plains of Abraham." The precipitous bluffs, rising almost perpendicularly from the river, three hundred and forty feet, present a natural barrier which may be swept with mii^'^erous fire, and the covered ways of approach and retreat, the various kinds and calibre of guns, mortars, howitzers and munitions of war, will be viewed with eager interest. Among the places of interest may be mentioned : The Plains of Abraham, with its humble monument, marking the place where fell the illustrious Wolfe. The (governors Garden, with its monument to Wolfe and Montcalm. The spot where fell the American General Montgomery. The Eoman Catholic Cathedral with its many fine old paintings. The Episcopal Cathedral. The Esplanade, from which is one of the finest views in the world. Houses of Parliament. Spencer Wood, the residence of the Lieut, Governor. Lava] University, &c., &c. In Quebec living is comparatively cheap, and hotel accommo- dation is as good as any Canadian city can furnish. There are several dozens of minor hotels, and some extensive ones, such as the two newly furnished, vast hotels — the St. Louis Hotel and the '' Eussell House," kept on the American principle, which have, of course, from their size, the first claim on the traveller's attention ; and the rush of visitors at these hotels duiii^^ the summer nionths sufficiently testifies to the comfort and civility, which await the traveller. The Messrs. Passell — two obliging Americans — ^have succeeded^ and deserve to succeed, as hosts. The city and environs abound in drives varying from five to thirty miles, in addition to being on the direct line of travel to St. LOUIS HOTEL The ST. Loots HOTEL* which is unrivalled for Size, Style and Locality, in Quebec, is open only during the Season of Pleasure Travel. It is eligibly situated, near to and surrounded by the most delightful and fashionable promenades, THE GOVERNOR'S GARDEN, THE CITADEL, THE ESPLANADE, THE PLACE D'ARMES DURHAM TERRACE, which furnish the splendid views and magnificent scenery for which Quebec is so justly celebrated, and which is unsurpassed in any part of the world. The Proprietor in returning thanks for the very liberal patronage he has hitherto enjoyed, informs the public that this Hotel has been thoroughly re- novated and embellished, and can now accommo- date about 600 Visitors ; and assures them that nothing will be wanting on his part that will con- duce to the comfort and enjoyment of his Guests. WILLIS RUSSELL, June, 1874. Proprietor. the far-famed Saguenaj, Murray Bay, Kamouraska, Caeouoa, Rimouski, Gasp6, and other noted watering places. Quebec can minister abundantly to the tastes of those who like to yacht, fish, or shoot. Yachting, in fact, has become of late quite an institution. You can on those mellow Saturday after- noons in August and September, meet the whole sporting and fashionable world of the Upper Town on the Durham Terrace or Lower Town whaives, bent on witnessing a trial of speed or sea- manship between tne Mouette, the Black Sawk, the Wfnp, the ShannoUy the Bon Homme Eichard, and half a score of crack yachts and' their owners. Let us see what the city contains : — First, the west wing, built about 1789 by Governor Haldimand, to enlarge the old Chateau burnt down in January, 1834 : this mouldering pile, now used as the Normal School, is all that remains of the stately edifice of old, overhanging and facing the Cul-de-Sac, where the lordly Count de Frontenac held his quasi rega^ court in 1691 ; next, the Laval University, founded in 1854, conferring degrees under its royal charter ; the course of studies is similar to that of the celebrated European University of Louvain; then there is the Quebec Seminary, erected by Bishop Laval, a Montmorency, in 1663 ; the Ursuline Convent, founded in 1636 by Madame de laPeltrie; this nunnery, with the E. C. Cathedral, which was built in 1646, contains many valuable paintings, which left France about 1789; the General Hospital, founded two centuries ago by Monseigneur de St. Vallier ; in 1759, it was the chief hospital for the wounded and the dying during the memorable battle of the 13th September — Arnold and his continentals found protection against the rigors of a Canadian winter behind its walls in 1775-6 ; the HotelrDieu nunnery, close to Palace Gate, dating more than two hundred years back. As to the views to be obtained from Durham Terrace, the Glacis and the Citadel, they atd unique in grandeur, each street has its own familiar vista* of the surrounding country It is verily, as Henry Ward Beeeher well expresses it^ '^ like turning over the leaves of a picture-book." The Montmorency Falls, a magnificent sight at almost all sea- EM)ns of the year, are situated about nine miles from the city. Between them and Quebec is the Beauport Lunatic Asylum, the largest and finest building of the kind in the Province. Many tourists and excursionists, after viewing the old northern capital, and its romantic and beautiful surroundings, will pursue the journey still further down Jhe great St. Lawrence to that won- derful river the Sa^enay, which enters the St. Lawrence one hundred and twenty miles below Quebec. On the way down the river, the mouth of the Elver St. Anne will be passed, o£f the lower extremity of the Iiland of Orleans. This river enters the lai^r stream through a boid ravine, and many ascend the stream for a short distance to the Falls of St. Anne, which, with the surroundings, are pleasing and attractive. Thirty-six miles below Quebec is a group of six small islands, alive with geese, ducks and teal, who make this a breeding place. The quarantine station at '^ Grosse Isle '' deserves a passing notice — a lovely spot of itself, quietly sleeping in the great river, but a very charnel house in the past, receiving, in the time of the famine in Ireland, six thousand emigrants in one huge grave. The river widens broader and broader below this point to ten and twenty miles as you sail on, as upon a shoreless sea, losmg sight of either shore. MURRAY BAT, On the North Shore, ninety niles belo^ Quebec, is a fashionable watering place, and the fine fishing in Murray River is much patronized. The river here is about twenty miles wide, and pteaming across to '' Biviere du Loup,'' on the South Shore, j^uis- sengers are landed within six miles of CACOUNA, One of the most fashionable watering places in America, and where tourists will find facilities for enjoyment, either of luxuri- ous ease or active sporting. Continuing down the St. Lawrence, on the northern shore, TADOUSAC is reached, at the mouth of the Saguenay. Here is famed facil- ities for hathing, for seal hunting, and for fishing in the tribu- taries of the Saguenay. The first permanent stone building erected on this continent was erected here. THE SAGUENAY is the largest affluent of the St. Lawrence, haying its source in Lake St. John,- and a straight course of one hundred and thirty miles from the lake to the St. Lawrence. The upper half of its course is a series of falls and rapids, navigable only by canoes, and flowing through a dense and almost unknown wilderness. The navigable portion of the river will float the largest vessels of the world, from its mouth some sixty miles to the head of naviga- tion, and has been described as a perfectly straight, yawning gulf, torn for the whole distance in the grey miea schist, rising on either hand in precipitous cliff's, whose bases rest in unknown depths — a panorama of rocky walls and precipices — h region dark, desolate, cheerless and cold. The ascent terminates in Ha-Ha Bay, a quiet and lovely bay, receding from the ij^ver several miles, a cheerful village, animal life^ and facilities for amusement are found here, a change most wel- come from the sombre desolation of the ascent. Lake St. John, in which the river has its source, receives the waters of eleven large rivers, and an innumerable number of smaller streams from the vast water-shed surrounding it, but discharges all its waters through this one wonderful stream. STATUE POINT Is a noted gem of scenery on the river, a perpendicular rock below Ha-Ha Bay, at the termination of a (ijeat plateau, three hundred feet wide, and six hundred feet in height, with sides as smooth as K»^ tbough poUshed by a skillful workman. Six miles above the BigT; ofSt. J'oims are the great points of attr^ctioQ on the river, OAPB ETSBNIIY AND TICINIIT EOOEr dollossal promontories of sheer descent, at whose very base the li^gest ships may ride in the immense depth of waters; sights never to be forgotten — bold, barren, forbidding and awful. The discharge of a cannon on shipboard between these bare walls of rock, is said to crash back in echoes which no one could wish to have repeated, one such sensation sufficing" for a lifetime. MONTEEAL TO OTTAWA. The best route from Montreal to Ottawa, the Capitol of the DominioD, is to take the train to Lachine, which leaves the Bonav^ntore Street Depot every morning (Sundays excepted) at seven o'clock, and there stepping on board the steamer Pbinob of Walss, (Oaptam H. W. Shepherd) or steamer Prihoess, (Captain McGrowan) sail up the river. By this last route we have a better opportunity of seeing the beautiful scenery of the St. Lawrence and Ottawa rivers, as they first meet. It is a bright morniiig atid the sun glances slantingly along the majestic waters, tinging with golden light the tips of the wavelets as they rise, one after the other, to greet his rafk.

It is soon dissolved, and the light breeze which has sprung up, carries italliiSrk^. Away we go, stemming the current, until in due time, We reach Ste. Anne*s, where are a succession of rapids which we avoid by going thtoi^ a lock. More islets are here, round which the Ottawa bubbles and struggles in its course, while the pretty village of- Ste. Anne's reposes in quiet beauty upon the bank. This village is considered the stai*ting point for the Ottawa River, by all orthodox voyagears^ as the last church on the island of Montreal is situated here, and is, moreover, dedicated to their tutelary siiint, from whom also the village takes its name, E^ierging from the canal, again, we enter the Ottawa, having left the St. Lawrence far astern, and after sailing about two miles^ we find the shores recede on either hand, to about eight miles wide, and this recession continues for a distance of ten miles, for we are in the Lake oX the Two Mountains, so called from two mountains on the north side rising four to five hundred feet from the water.

There is the Isle Jesus, and beside i* Pigeon's Island, on which are the ruins of an Indian village, also Isle aux Prune, lately purchased by Dr. Girdwood, of Montreal. For the purpose of guarding against the incursions of the Indians, the French built a fort on the Island of Montreal, opposite to the vil- lage, but both village and fort have now fallen into decay, and large trees are growing inside the ruined walls of the latter. This property has been recently bought by the Hon. J. J. C. Abbott, M.P.P., upon which he has built a beautiful villa where he passes the summer months. A few miles further on we arrive at a fine new wharf n^med Oka, situated in the Indian Village of the Two Mountains. This village is inhabited by the remnants of two tribes, the Iroquois and the Algonquins, as the village of Caugh- nawaga, opposite to Lachine, is by a remnant of the Iroquois. A Eoman Catholic Church divides the settlements, as ih^ people are all baptised into that Church. Three or four chapels stand on the mountain side. The high^t peak of the mountain is called Calvary, and on certain religious fetes of the Church it is frequented by both white and Indian. Now we stop at the village of Como and Hudson. Both these vi.lages are the resort of some of our Montreal friends who pass the summer months there with their families. At the head of the Lake of the Two Mountains the banks contract, so that the river is not more ihan half a mile in width, and it continues thus narrow, for about a mile, when there is again an expansion, for the length of nine miles, forming the Upper Lake of the Two Mountains. On the southern bank is the mountain Eigaud, where there is also a settlement of the same name. The river again contracts to the breadth of half a mile, and continues, sometimes broader, sometimes as narrow, until we reach Carrillon. Great improvements have been made at thb place by the Railway Company, by building new wharves and station houses, and here again the navigation is impeded hy rapids. A railroad has heen formed hetween the two stretches of navigable water, and bj it we arrive at Grenville, whence we proceed by the Steamer jPeebless (Oapt. BowieJ or Queen YiOToaiA (€aptain Macdonell), to Ottawa, which we reach about six o'clock p.m. Yonder is a raft of wood coming jSoating down, manned by hardy voyageurSf who have built their wooden hut upon the timber island they have made. Far, far back, in the thick and dark woods, have they toiled through the inclemency of winter, gather- ing together the huge monarchs of the forest ; far, far back, where the bears prowl, and the gaunt and hungry wolves ''make night hideous" with their bowlings; while the hardened snow has covered the ground many feet deep, and the frost spirit has '^ Bound the waters in ley chainB Bj a spell unseen yet strong^" and the cold is keen, cutting, and piefcing, such a cold as can only be felt when the thermometer ranges 30° or 40S below zero ; in this wild scene, in this severe season they have toiled, felling the huge trees and fitting them for the market. And now, one by one, they have launched the logs, and fastening them strongly together, have committed them to the river to bear them doYrn. They have sent them rushing crib after crib down the slides, which have borne them along and plunged them again safely into the dark deep water. Refastened, and their hut rebuilt and their low masts with broad sfquare sails all arranged, there they go night and day, watching the floating treasure which serves them for a habitation, until they reach a market, where it is broken up and sold* Hardy, daring fellows are the voyagenn^ simple and kind withal. Though their n^anners ar^ homely, their hearts are warm. Heaven speed them down the ra{»c|8 to a safe arrival and a profitable sale of their hard earned produce. Both from Grenville and Carillon and half way between them, are roads leading back into the mountains, for the great range commencing at Labrador and uniting with the Boeky Mountains runs through this country. The interior of this region is dotted every where with small lakes, which here and there form a variety to tha scenery. In the Township of Wentworth alone, there are upwards of sixty, plentifully stocked with red and grey trout, inviting the disciple of Isaac Walton to pursue his favourite amusement. Lake Louisa, or Abbott's Lake, is perhaps most worthy of notice among them all, especially as it is more accessible than any. It is a beautiful sheet of water, clear as crystal, so that at the depth of twenty feet, the pebbles which show the bottom may be counted. It is surrounded by rocks and mountains, which here jut out far into the water, and there recede in indentations sometimes as deep as half a mile, forming pleasant little bays. The lake is about four miles long, by three in breadth, and is altogether the very fac simile of the largest of the lakes of the North of England. It is abundantly stocked with fish, principally the grey trout or Zunge. The Red Trout is also found in it, but not so plentifully. To reach it, we start from Carillon in the train for (ihrenville, after engaging a buggy to meet us about four miles off. Then we proceed at right angles with the Railway, all the way through the Township of Chatham, and a mile and a half into that of Wentworth. Here we are at Qrenville on board the steamer, and traversing the waters of the Grand River, as the Ottawa is called ; five miles from Grenville we stop at L'Original, where a stage awaits passengers going to the celebrated Caledonia Springs, a distance of some 9 miles through a very interesting country, giving some very picturesque views. The springs are much frequented by invalids during the summer months, for the sake of the mineral waters. As we hurry on with the restless speed of steam, we have abun- dant opportunities of examining the picturesque banks of the river on both sides, until we come close up to the city. About two miles below Ottawa, on the north side, the Qatineau empties itself into the Grand River. A few miles up this stream the Canada Iron Mining and Manufacturing Company have erected very extensive ftirnaces for the purpose of smelting the iron ore, from their Hull Mine. This is likely to he a very important branch of trade in the new Dominion. See yonder, that white curtain hanging over tlie steep bank on the south side. As we near it, it changes and we can see it is not a curtain, but a waterfall, being none other than the Eideau Falls. There it falls, gracefully as flowing drapery falls from, the shoulders of a queen, a most beautiful sight. The body of water is not so large, and the height of the fall, 30 feet, is not so great as to warrant the appellation grand, but what it wants in grandeur is amply made up in beauty. Gently, gracefully, the w^ater pours over, and mingles with that of the Ottawa beneath, with just as much noise as is necessary to add to the effect. We obtain a fine view of it as the steamer passes close by. Looking ahead, we now get a splendid view of the Parliament and Departmental Buildings, standing out so prominently on the bluff called Major's Hill. These buildings only require to be visited to be appreciated. All we can say is. go and see for yourself, dear reader. And now we reach Ottawa City, picturesquely built upon three separate bluffs or ledges forming the river bank of the south side. Bight before us is an imposing scene, second only to Niagara in grandeur and mag- nificence. The Ohaudiere Falls are immediately above the city, and there, with thundering cadence, the waters precipitate them- selves down the precipice of forty feet in height, and gathering into a basin, boil, and seethe, and hiss, and whirl around in mad excitement, while the spray arises and the sunbeams gleaming upon it form an almost perpetual rainbow. A fine bridge spans the river just below the Falls, fro n which a magnificent view of them is obtained. Beside the Grand Fall there is also Little Ohaudiere on the northern side, and here a curious phenomenon presents itself. The great portion of the waters which precipitate down the latter, find their way underground, where none can trace their course. The following description, quoted from Bouchette, will give us some idea of the singular scene. He says, ''The Little Ohaudiere may, without much difficulty, be appoaohed from the Lower Canada shore, and the spectator, standing on a level with the top of the fall, and on the hrink of the yawning gap into which the floods are headlong plunged, snrveys the whole lenght of chute, and the depths of the cavern. A considerahle portion of the waters of the falls necessarily escapes suhterraneously, after their precipitation, as a mush greater volume is impelled over the rock then finds a visihle issue. Indeed this fact is not peculiar to the Little Ohaudiere, hut is one of those curious characters of this part of the Ottawa of which other singular instances are oh- served ; the waters in various places heing swallowed hy deep hut narrow rents and fissures, leaving their natural hed almost dry, to dash on through some suhterraneous passage that defies the search of the explorer. There are in the Falls of the Ch^^udiere materials for much geological speculation, and the mere admirer of nature's scenic wonders and magnificence will derive much gratification and delight hy the survey and contemplation of their ma^^ ifold heauties," On the northern hank, a slide has heen made, so that the timher can he sent from ahove to below the foaming waters without endangering either it heing broken by abrupt and rude collision with kindred logs below, or shattered upon the rock. These slides are frequent in the Upper Ottawa, the rocky state of the river necessitating their construction ; and they are admirably adapted, carrying down the logs of timber safely, and without any damage to prevent a sale in the market. But to return to the city. OTTAWA, Like Quebec, is divided into Upper and Lower Towns ; although some make three divisions, adding the Middle and perhaps this last division has the advantage of being more correct. The Upper Town, as its name implies^ occupies the highest part of the rocky batiks, and the Middle and Lower Towns are con- tented wiUi a less elevated position. The Eideau Canal joiis the Ottawa Eiver, through a gorge between the towns, by a succession of locks. This canal connects the Ottawa with Kingston and Lake Ontarioi through a series of lakes and streams. It is 135 miles lrth wmingled exdama- tions of pleasure. The dty itself is well built^ and the eleva^on of the ground has been taken advantage of, to heighten the efTeot. The County Buildings, several banks, good hotels, and churches of various denominations are situated here. What the Bideau Oanal does for Kiugston, the Ottawa atid Presoott Bailroads does for Presoott — ^forms a connecting link with Ottawa City. This line is fifcy-four miles in length, and connects at Prescott with the Grand Trunk Bailway, and also, by means of a ferry, with Ogic^^sburgh on the United States short, whence a railroad extends as far as New York. Prom Ottawa, many very pleasant excursions can be made into the country, both by stages and steamboats, runniog to different parts, so that every facility is afforded for enjoying to the utmost extent the romantic scenes which abound on every side. The only difficulty one has, is created by the want of time to go over the country thoroughly. On the bank of the Gutineau Biver are also situated the mills of the same name, the property 6i the enterprising firm of Gilmour ds Co., under the able management of John Mather, Esq. These mills are very complete. With all the necessary apparatus for sawing the timber into deals and boards, and preparing it for the market, I taking it in its Tough state from the mer, squariug it off, and then dilEKsharging it back again to be made np intc oribs and floated down to the Ottawa, and thenoe to MoLtreal or Quebec. ; ][jooldQg a^ the Ottawa altogether, it is perhaps one of the finest and modi piotoresque of ail the rirers of Canada ; and when we consider that it drains a country of about 80,000 superficial miles, we eannot but think that many more years will not pass over, without a Tast change for the better m the land. Clearances effected, and comfortable &rms and dwellings erected on a soil abundantly fertile, with still a background of unlimited forest for the successful prosecution of the lumber trade ; wh6n we look at all these &ots, the conclusion to which we must inevitably come is, that PBOBPBBITT is written inl^ible characters upon the broad expanse of country stretching around us. The establishment of the seat of Gorernment at Ottawa will also tend to open up the country, and the increase will be great.
