The lakes and beautiful rivers of the EsistA^rn Townships, the no less beautiful streams, lakes and mount/iiins of Vernu>nt, and that gem of summer resorts, Nevv})ort, are upon the direct line of travel, while in connection with the same line the j.leasurc and health seeker may tind the most delightful routes to Hoston, New York, Portland, all White Mountain Resorts, Lake (Jluunplain, I^akeOeoi-ge, Saratoga, Ac, iVc.

DESCRIPTION OF THE ROUTE. Leaving Quebec by the Quebec and Levis Ferry we cross to Point Levis, where the station of the Quebec Central Railway is situated. From Point Levis the traveller finds himself running along the shores of the beautiful St. Lawrence River. From the train a fine view is obtained of Que})ec, the Dutferin Terrace and the imposing blutl" on -<_i^ ,1 ■ -- -V» rawrnTTfTT ■ .'■•■HrivJ. ''(n*if<:':V4 which st-iiuls the Citsulcl.

Island of Oi- loans. nine miles holow Qutjhc", and an ext<;n«lcd vii;W down the River St. Lawrence as far as the eye can roai;h; arrivin<^ at Hnrlakn .

After leaving Scotts Station the ^^alley of the Chaudiere Ixiver is entered ; this valley- has heeii immor- talized hy (ion. Arnold's nieniorahle winter inarch on Qiiel»ec in 1775, and is now not^Ml for its ce1el)rati:d gold mines. We now an-i\«? at Sto.

Above 8t. Jtiseph and still further u]) the valley, the line is constructed to St. Francis (H»milosfromJ^eauce.J unction). The Company proposes to construct this extension through t.o the State of Maine, there to connect with t,he International line of Maine, and thus form the shortest pos- sible line between Quebec and the Lower Provinces of the Dominion, as well as t«i a connection with the Maine system of railways. When comj)Ieted this will form an additional and attractive tourist r(»ute. Passeng('i*s can thus leave Quebec and in five hours be landed at the popular summer resort, Moosehead Lake, and from there to any point on the Maine sea coast. Nature has been most lavish with the wealth of varied scenery with which she has endowed this valley. And even bef(»re the completion of the extension through to Maine, if the tourist has time to take a run up this new line he will ])e amply repaid for the trouble. No more ])leasant trij) can be had than a tlrive through this charming region as far as the gold lields of St. (leiu-ge. which is ten miles above St. Fnincis. > ■ wmmmm f.- ■---v^ After climl)ing the hill fnnii IJeuuce .Junction we j>;uss St. FroUerie, TriU;^', Brought) )n and Roltertson StatioUH, and arrive at Thetford ; this is perhaps the most interesting region on tlu; w'lKtle line. Thetford hxtks likf a town of huts nt't iii)on a vol eano; the charred forms of burn- ed trees lie where tliey fell : earth and rock are hea[)ed up in un- canny masses: the houses' lurr stand at detiance of all rules of tlie compass, eac!i owner evident- ly locating as hcscluK-ses, and yet Thetford is a necessir.y. Along the gray ridge (»f rock beside the t.»wn are theojieii (quarries where that mysterious mineral, known in trade as aslnjstos, is foinid. It exists in seams sh(»t tnrougli the hai'd serpentine rock, which is blasted out and iKunmered into fragments to obtain this valuabh.! iion-c(»nductor of heat, .lust how nature dejxisited this curious substance seems to be a mysteiy. Its tibrous texture renders it valualde in a hundred ways, and new uses are constant- ly being discovered for it. Steam - [>ipe8 are sheatlunl with it; roofs are covered to render them tire ]iro(»f. It is H}>un with other fibres into cloth that will not burn. The writer has seen a m^r^ '. i l*''Al'».Jr. -*-V ftv*- glc.ve, soft, plmHe and warm, spun from the pure asbestos, wliicli enahesit« wearer to handle red-liot coals wifli perfect freed, un, and which 18 washed by simply being thr,.wn into the 5t<.ve, where the dirt 18 bunied ofl, leaving the glove snuwy wliite.

After leaving Marbleton and ]>assing Dudswell the line follows tlie shore «tf the St. Francis River; about hero the farm houses and their dependent build- ings are substantial. Still further along the line the train travi'rses a series of deep ravines, where little creeks, perchatice ragiiig toireiits in their season lead down t/o the St. Francis, wliich sparkles and elacc, which catclies the river as it coincrt (lashing ahuig, and whirls it about for a time before it rt-hijiseH its waters to flow onward. At East Angus the new chenii- C!'' I'ulji mills of Messrs.

NEWPORT AND SFlKUBRooKE TO (.X'EP.EC AND THE LOWER ST. LAWRENCE AND SACUENAV RIVEIiS. P.'us.sengers wishing to ((et to (^)uebcc direct from Newport can take Passumpsic train going north at 5:40 a. m., and rurniing ahvng the ea.stern shore of Lake Memplirein.'igog for two or three luiles, and thence into tlie valley leailing to the channing Mas.sawippi Lake, eon- ui'ctH at Sliorbrooke with tlie Quebec Central Railway ; thi.s afl-a-ds a through davlight ride l>etween Newport and Qucl»ec. The scenery !i!ong the QiUibec Central Railway is wihl and magnitiei^it : the l»eau- tiful forest-environed lake.s which have slept amid the rocky hills of tJie lower French-Canadian region, the wild and turbulent St. Francis River and the peaceful vale of the Chaudiere, are things which will linger in tlie uieniory of tlie ajtpreciative traveller long after the im- IiresHions wl^vl- uvddc by the actual tour. Th(! r/(f/r into the tine old City of Quebec, the 'fiibraltar of America,' as the heavy ferry Ixwit brings him to the dock yard in the lower town is (piite in keei)ing with the foreign. C(.nt.inental atmosphere about him. A lively, |)ertiuacious bevy of caleche drivers make an onslaught upon tluMiew-comer. If he. hesitates, Ihms lost, but if wise he will haiul his valise to the porter of the St. Louis, and climbing into the omnibus, he will l)e rattled along through the narrow streets and up a steep hill, under the frowning, gniy, lime-stained walls of the upper town, then through its gate and past the terrace to the hotel, the only house in town catering to pleasure travel. ^^ hen Quebec is to be considered, one drops into the past as natiir.ally and gracefully as the bite Mr. Silas Wcgg dropped into poetry. 1 I > 2» (.^iioht'c stJinds like a fnis^Miiont ct" thr iM worUl ~ like? h creation of tlic eontoiitiouH f(Mul;i,l ages 8t,i*ivtnUMl upon tlu; hIiovcs of ii new conti- nent.
