i Correspondence.
Enr'rous GAZETTE :—
Your recent notiee'of the unwork-
manlikc and pretended repairs of some of
the highways of the town commends itselfto
the careful attention of all tax payers as well
as to all owners of vehicles of any descrip-
lion.
With the advantage of a good foundation
for the roads and suitable gravel for repairs,
at. no very inconvenient distance, no excuse
can be entertained for such miserable work
as Is now apparent.
There is no economy in the use of soil, of
turf and of the wash from the gutters. It
only serves to increase the depth of mud
when it: is wet and the volume of blinding
dust when it is dry, with the certainly al-
most, of its being washed away by the first
heavy rain storm, leaving the road with a
rough stony surface. Gravel alone should
be used, and any other material prohibited,
—under a severe penalty—for making and
repairing highways. Appropriations for this
purpose will then be more economically ex-
pended.
It cannot, however, be expected to reach
any marked results either in economy, or in
the symmetry of the finish of the roads, un-
til a grade has been established for all the
principal streets, roads and sidewalks, and
that maps of the same, with all the working
details, be executed by competent engineers,
and it shall be made the duty of the street
commissioner under a penalty, to see that
all repairs and improvements are made to
conform strictly to the adopted survey.
This plan is working in other towns and
with the utmost. satisfaction. , ,
Is it not: time to think and to act upon
8 line similar plan for economy and improve-
ment? ' . “Sf,
lia‘The suggestions of our correspondent
are opportune. It. is really a disgrace and
m scry to see Tax-paycrs‘ money squandered
in the manner it has been so generally done
this spring‘ in Norwalk, in heaping loam
our streets. Far better let them entirely
alone. If our new system can be made to
work no better, then the sooner we have a
town meeting and upset. the whole thing
the better.
Trip to Canada.
DEA]: GAZETTE :—Wili you allow your
readers to take an excursion with me? It
shall not. bc‘a long one. The tour I was ten
days in Iiiaking, they, by putting spurs to
their imagination, can complete in as many
minutes. Let us start from Albany. We
will go by rail. It 18 Tuesday afternoon,
June 18th. A generous rain had been full-
ing through the iiiglitand part of the fore-
noon. Uroliist. is laid, and we can look
through an open window, unblinded. Cir-
cumstances are favorable. We dash along
the N. Y. Central with landscapes of beauty
bursting upon us at every curve. Now
without slacking speed we glide through a
gap in the Adirondae Mountains, floing, in
an opposite direction, what. the Mohawk
River has done before us. Then we skirt.
the Oneida Lake, which is scarcely visible,
being eight miles distant. \Vc have now
left. the N. Y. Central Road and are on the
Rome 8.: Waterlown road, with a single
track, yet making splendid time. In fact the
rapidity sctone car on fire. At lVatertown
we change cars once more, and turning at.
right. angles to the left, our train heads di;
rectly for Cape Vincent. We reach that
point. about eleven o’clock, and find a ferry-
boat ready to transport as to Kingston. This
city lies just across the neck of Lake Onta-
rio, and is twenty miles off. We take sup:
per on board the boat. It. is our first meal
in Canada, we can but hope it. will be our
last. unless the bill of fare is changed. Taint-
ed liam is the main dish. So. fool is it that
a lady who passes the dining room door, is
in a fainting condition during the rest ofthe
trip. We are three hours in crossing, and
fall asleep in Kingston :1 little after three
o’clock, a. in. At six we are on board an
English Iron steamer from Toronto, point-
ing down the St. Lawrence toward the
“Taousaiid Islands." We will not attempt
to express our sensations. There are 1800
of these green spots dotting the river, and
the few miles over which they stretch is
Fairy Land. The very spirit of enchant-
ment rests upon us as we glide through. It
is to the sight what soft ravishing music is
to the ear. The hour passed there is a bean-
tiful dream from which we shall never wa~
ken. Lmver down are the "rapids." First
the Long Sault ! as we approach nearly every
passenger is on deck. The waters are bro-
ken and wild. Underneath are jagged
rocks. ’l‘o strike one of these is possible.
To be wrecked among these angry waters
will be, so far as we can see, fatal. A few
minutes pass and we are through the worst
part. Several miles below is a cluster of
rapids. The rush through them is very ex-
ilieratiiig. Finally we reach the “Laehine.”
This, ill the language of a Canadian, is ‘the
best rapid We’ve got." Just above, on the
right hand shore, isa quaint lookii‘ig Indian
village, and from it comes in acanoc-likc
bout, the “Indian Pilot” Batiste. Hchcld
the wheel of the first. vessel that. made this
perilous Voyage, and he holds the wheel for
us. His face is swartby, his eye piercing,
and his mouth the very (‘lltlJOtlltnCllt of set-
ucss. We feel safe in his hands, and ‘give
him three cheers, or would but for the lap-
tain who says ominously, “ We are not
through yet." We are now near the crisis.
The channel is very crooked and narrow,
huge rocks lie on either side and the mighty
tide is roaring along at the rate of twenty
milesan hour. There can be no pause. It.
is too late to retreat. In we plunge; every
breath is bated and every heart. oppressed.
We look at the rock upon which We seemdo
be hurrying, ainl then look anxiously back
at the lnilian. III: is struggling at the "wheel
with thicc men to help. 'l‘licir faces are hill
of concern. The rudder must be turned,
and he hoarsely whispers, “Pull boys, pull l
Pull bog/x, pull 1’“ Suddenly the steamer
tips sharply to the starboard, the prow turns
abruptly, and like an eagle swooping down
upon his prey we sweep swiftly down into
smooth water again. Once more we breathe
freely. Victoria Bridge and Montreal are in
sight.
Victoria Bridge, under which we passed,
is nearly two miles long, and cost about
seven millions of dollars. Just. as we reach
it. some wag cries out “Bridge l heads
‘ down 1" and though it is so high that steam-
and garden mould and sod in theaientcr of ,
era with tall smoke stacks have plenty of
room, yet. several actually “duck." Now
let. us look at Montreal. We find it, the
most populous’ important. city in British
America. Like New York it. is situated on
an island,—-an island superior to Manhattan
in size, fertility, and abundance of building
material. It. is 10 1-2 miles wide by 32 long
and called “the garden of Canada East."
The apples found there cannot be excelled.
It abounds also in gray limestone, of which
the qnays and ware houses, as also its finest
private aml public buildings, are construct.-
cd.
Do you see those twin—towers which rise
into sight from almost every stand-point. ?
They crown the French Cathedral, This is
the most capricious church in Canada, and
boasts of the largest bell in America; nearly
all the churches in Montreal are built of
stone, and first-class. The police regulations
are excellent. Do you notice how quiet; and
well-behaved the people are. Not. a drunk-
ard or rowdy is visible. One thing more we
notice number of priests on the streets. They
flit by like black ghosts in their lo ng gowns
and thoroughly mind their own. business.
Their pcopleure numerous. Montreal con-
tains 125,000 inliabitants,90,000 of whom are
Catholics. They have seminar-ice, hospitals,
nunucries, and colleges; all of which are
thrown open to visitors. They treat stran-
gers courteonsly. and answer their questions
most. freely. The College of the J csuft Cath-
olics has connected itself with one of the fin-
est. churches in the city, but, strange as it
may seem, the Lecture room beneath is 11
genuine theatre, seating 4000 people. There
are oth cr points of'intcrcst. here and there
in every direction, but time is precious, and
we had better look in upon the Convention
without delay. Its sessions are held in Zion
Clinrch—Congrcgational—a neat edifice
seating 1200 people. Delegatcsarc present
from all sections of the U. S. and British
Provinces. Yonder stands a Californian
speaking earnest words : here sits an L. L.
D. from Prince Edwards Island. __ A voice is
heard from Missouri, and another from
Maine, Smith Carolina and Michigan sit side
by side; Nova Scotia and Virgina shake
hands. It is a wonderful] meeting, and we
its influence the moment the threshold is
crossed. The most: perfect harmony reigns.
The Spirit of Christ is evidently present.
The prayers are fervent, the speeches enthu-
siastic, and the singing indescribable. Ibis
an in door “camp meeting.” The reports
brought 11p from some Associations are mar-
vellous. In New York, Wasliington,&c.,
they are erecting $200,000 edifices, organiz-
ing schools, changing saloons into prayer-
rooms, and bringing young men to Christh
hundreds. 'l‘lley propose to issuea religious
daily paper, and cover the country with 11115-
sionaries. The prophesy of Joel seems to
be coming true “Your young men shall see
visions." There are present more than 600
delegates, representing 260 Associations, and
30,000 members. This year will undoubted-
ly witness the ' conversion of multitudes.
through the iilslriniiciitality of these organi-
nations.
It is Monday and the Convention has all»
journed to meet. next. June in Detroit, and
the Delegates are starting in large numbers
on an excursion tr-fiilic Sagucnon River. “/0
will go as far as Quebec, 180 miles down the
St. Lawrence. The scenery is monotonous
and we go in the night. At ’1" a. in. next
morning we pass the Plains of Abraham,
and anchor at. the “Gibraltar of America.“
The city seems just ready to slide into the
river, a. we can get. to the summit, only as
the eagle reaches. his cyrie—liy winding.
The garrets of one street. are the cellars of
the next. But. here is a hotel~the Imperial.
Let. us take breakfast. An hour later we are
011 our way to the Falls of Moiilmorcnci.
The Dr. and l, for the sake of variety, have
taken the “Calash.” ltis a two wheeled ark
with a cover, and we constitute the laughing
stock of our delegation. No wonder! for
our appearance as a whole 23: grotesque. We
represent four distinct nationalities. Pat sets
in front driving; he lashesu Canadian horse,
and jounccs its along in :1 French vehicle,
while we Yankees endure iatierltly the‘mer-
rinieut of those who dash by grinning. At.
11 o’clock w‘e reach the Falls, and soon stand
transfixed by their beauty. Let us go down
amoug the rainbows. W'c descend easily,
and are quickly at the foot of the cascade,
saturated with its spray,and clad in prismatic
’colors. The water falls 250 feet down an al-
most pcrpendicular, but very jagged ledge,
and is cut. into the whitest, and most lace-
like looking water on the continent. Seven
miles distant, roofed with tin, aiid shining as
if plated with silver, lies Quebec. We will
\rcturn and visit its citadel. This, surround-
ed by solid masonr ', and mounted with nu-
merous guns, commands both river and
country for miles. Lord l‘ilonck, the chief
ruler of the Dominion of Canada, arrives
from Europe while we are gazing from this
summit, and receives a salute of scveiitccn
guns. This the highest number allowed to
any person outside the royal family. hit it.
is nearly time for the boat. to leave and we
must go on board. Al. 7 o‘clock next. morn-
ing we are in Montreal, and a few minutes
later on the 7:11'icxprcss train rushing to-
ward home at the rateot' four miles an hour.
This train is made 11p of three passengcrgtnd
ten hog cars. The latter containing sever-.11

Eff” It. is reported that. the governorship
of Alaska—our newly purchased territory
on the North Pacific—has been proflercd to
:1 resident of this State, Mr. Benjamin Stark,
of New London. Mr. Stark formerly lived
in Oregon, where he made himself well-
known as a leading “.Democrutic" politician,
and upon Gen. Baker’s death in 1S61 was
appointed by Gov. lVliIttakcr to fill that;
state’s vacant seat in the United States Scri—
.‘llC. He was accused, however, of disloyal—
ty, and his admission gave rise 10.:1 long dis-
cussion. In June, 1862, a resolution for his
expulsion failed byonly five votes. _In the
latter part of the same year the legislature
of Orr-iron elected Mr. Benjamin F. Harding
to fill the unexpired portion of Senator Ba-
ker’s term and Senator Stark of course re.
tired to private life.
