I passed between Navy and Grand Isl
and-, and landed near old Fort Schlo*ser;
I walked down the shore io Whiincv’s,
ppo-ite tlie^ir/fsjit iva* near sun-set silence
gan to eeigii nvor thcTace of nature. Slow*
, anti at intervals, I heard the deep, louv,
and awful roar ol the cataract; my mind,
Inch for years bad dwelt with nnficipa
un upon this greatest the world’s traits
;iclio3tl:e*C’ nc with fearful solicitude
beheld-the permanent o'jc'ts, tho trees,
the rock*, and I beheld nl*o the pa*sine
clouds, that mi meiitarily fitted over tbe
most interesting picture that native ever
painted and exposed tn the admiration of
iijent being-; with more than my com
mon forbearance. I coiiclodci! to tv-hold
.mid the beauts of a rising sun the gre.it-
-*t object ever prt-sei.ted to human view.
But whilst the s’ars of the night gleamed
through the mi.-ty atmosphere of this, ap-
narently fairy land, I walked forth to the
njrgin of tiie cataract, and in fancy con
in 'the rortex of
fleams of Tfiornm^ c«fn<f 9 iml jgUneil op-
on the < *r!ing volume* , that rose from
the al>y*s lien « h; my eye searched
the bottom af this awful gulf, and found
in its bosom darkness, gloom, and indes
cribable tumult. My reflections tlweft
upon this never ending conflict, this eter
nal march of the elements, and my "verx
soul shrunk back up"a itself. The shelv
ing f«uk ou-whichd stood,trembled under
ray feet, and tho irresistible, flood before
me seemed to-preoent the pictured image
of evauescene. Th* rock was yielding
piecemeal to ruin, fragment aftet frag
ment was borne in the terrible chasm be
neath; and the very stre mi that hurried
these broken morsels to 'destruction, was
itself a monument of changing power.
I retracted myself to Col. Whitney’*
and after '’breakfast ; returned, and des
cending tho almost perpendicular bank of
tocks, found my*elf under the tremendou*
FALL OF W A TER, that even in des
cription • lids excited the admiration ol
cultivated man! I crossed Niagara strait
about 250 yards below the chute. The
river was, in some measure, ruffled by the.
■inflict it bail sustained above, but no
danger approached the passenger. Per
pendicular walls ol rock rose on bull,
side*, to tiie appalling elevation uf be
tween threeand Jour hundred feet. 1 h
trees which growntd. the upper verge ol
this abyss appeared like shrubs. 1 wa*
drenched to tlie.skin bjr tli* spray of the
cataract; but the sublime scene towering
over uly h«*ad, was too impressive to per
mit much reflection upon a momentary m-
ciiirvcnicucie The river beiuw the fall
flows with tohsideranle rapidity,but with
less velocity or turbulence than 1 had oeen
induced to expect. The opposing bank*
are.p rfectly --imilar, both being perpend
cular about half the descent; befoiv which
enui mnj, walls, extend slopes, composed
of tne broken fragments that (rave been
torn from their original position by ti
torrents from above. Most maps ol Ni
gara are very defective, the river being
represented too siaight. The best delin
eation of this phenomenon which 1 hav
seen is contained in the map of Niagara
liver, published with gen. W’liilkins’.ui'
demons. In that draft, the liver abovi
'he falls is represented, as it is in fact,
flowing almost westward. Below the
chute the sfcnni flows abruptly to tin-
northeast, which course it puigue* more
• han a mile, from whence it again resumes
i tnnthorn direction, which, with some
partial bends, it continues to the place ol
its final exit in lake Outuiio.
We learn that on Monday kst, the
inst. that Pensacola wasi delivered to (he
Spaoiardspthat the American troops took
up the line of march for fort Montgomery
immediately after'—that the Atnerieca
citizens who had located themselves in
Pensacola had one month allowed them by

No adequate idea ran be form'd fro
