    THE SPLEND0ROF THE WEST.
SWIl ZK.KI.ANP AND 1TALV WITHIN OUR OWN
BotiDi-RS GLOKIC8 OK THE YKLLOWeTOJJK.
As the men tf enterprise and science ad
vance iuto the unexplored recesses i f our re
public pioneers, road building, gold search
ers tvery step brings a new revelation of
this republic's wealth and beauty. We, as a
people, are rg arded by the critics of the
nifShy. over" town and cabined cations of
Continental Europe as given to exaggeration.
"The special intellectual foible f tho Amer
icans," a s the Loudon Spectator, "is their
admiration for the grandiose." Yet wecan
Eot wiiie the olaiu discoveiies recorded in
the J It raid without seeming to the foreign
mind to iin'ii in grandiose rhetoiic. Ev
ery day stems to bring forth a new wonder,
and the tiu.e is coming quickly when the
titles of health dceiriug aud wouder tec-king
tiavel will be from Europe to America.
Why, for instance, should e go to ywifE
erluiid to se the mountains, or to Iceland
fcr gey.-eis? Thiity years ago the alti action
of America to tho foreign miud was Niagara
Falls. Now we have attraction which di
iriiii.h Niagara into an ordit.ary exhibition.
The 'o Semite, which the nation has made
a pat k , the Rot ky Mouuta us and tin ir sin
gular parks, the caDjons of the Colorado,
the Dalies of the Columbia, the g'aut tiees,
the lake auntry of Upper Minnesota, the
c untry of the Yellowstone, with their beau
ty, their splei.dor, their extraordinary acd
frotiielimes tenible nianiftstatious of nature,
form a series of attractions possessed by do
other nation iu the world. When that fa
loous city-item reporter, Charles Dickens,
came here over thiity yeai ago, lie was
taken iu state to see a Missouri prairie. He
made an elaborate record of the reappoint
ment t c Uid him and his failure to see any
thing to compare with the gleu of Gleuce,
iu Scotland. The thought that our fathers
were so ignorant of their own country as to
gard a prairie its rarest attraction is not
iihout humor, ami we can well pardon the
ahfeo'e rf any enthusiasm on the occasion
f the stately visit, and the desire of Mr.
D.ckens to kill the tediousness of the jouiuey
by champagne aud comic sougs. But we
really had little more thnn a prairie acd some
long, carrow, muddy, unintera ting rivora to
thow to the foreigner thirty years ago. The
West was an unkrioWD laud to us. There
was nothing but desolatiou" beyoDd the
Mississippi; aud as to the Pac fie, the Mexi
cans aud SpauiarJs were in possession, aud
we had not fought nir war for This and
California. As we have said, why go to
Switzeilaud to see the Alps? There is uo
exhilaratiou tf air or beauty of scenery in
the Alpine regions that we have not io Col
orado. Within three or, by easy stages, four
days from Gew Yoik, the traveler finds him
Belf stepping from a luxurious palace car in'o
Ptover, and from Denver sweeps a view that
has no parallel in the world. Mountains aud
peaks, with every conceivable variety of
colr and beauty, stretchh-g for a hundred
miles north and south, their tops covered
with perpetual sui.w. The mouutaiu parks
invite him for a summei's holiday. If he
wouM hurt, there are deer tu the mountains
aud buffaloes on the plains, and vo angry
liergh to molest or make afraid. If he has
scientific tastes, the rocks will tell hiai a geo
logical story; the quartz formatious will
speak of the hidden riches of the earth; the
flora wiil bo full of profit aud iustructiou.
The air is pure aud lile-giving, and acts upon
the nervas like champagne. Fir beyond
Switzerland, far leyoud the Tj rol. or the
Highlands, or the Lake country , or Norway,
Colorado s'aods to-day iuvitini the tired cit
izen to come and find rest and health iu the
tnidaummer months.
Colorado is scarcely a new story, and we
make this allu sion ns a hiut to those of our
readers who are wondering where to iu
th summer. But here we have really a
new story, told to us by Genera! Pni! SherU
dan, who sent out an expedition to see, and
v hose report is iu pi int. A few days since the
SvO.aU passed a bill setting apart as a public
park, to the uses of the people i f the United
States forevt-r. what we are iu the habit of
tailing "the Ytllowstoue couutry." The
passage of the act was '"vise, for as we read
the reports published by General Sheridan,
we fiud an aggregation of curiosities and Dat
ura! phviiomuua iu this proposed paik that
lias no parallel in the wt-ild. As we peruse
the precise and co'd and formal words of
the-e official reports we feel tho glow and
color of the Arabian Nights, or tho legends
vf the O.ieuUl natioD. Thus of our enthu
siasts w ho care to found a new religion upon
defined principles of eternal damnation will
welcome the Yellowstone discoveries. For
here are whit we call .Sulphur Mountains."
with marvelous deposits of brimstone; the
earth oveied with hi iliug springs, caverns
of purj crjita'iz-d sn'j.hur. the air deuse
with the fumes i f sti'phu e t'd byrroren
There was one sptii.g having regular pul
salious like au engine, givit g off large quan
tifies of uteam, which wvuld issue forth with
the roar of a hurricane , a steam voIcaDO io
reality ; whit li deep vibrations in the subter
ranean caverns far away beneath the hills."
What au opportunity for a powerful preich
r to inculcate the doctrines, of eternal pun
isiitnLt. the vengeance of en angry God and
and the sure iewrd of all sins! Now that
the movement b wards secession and evan
gelical reformatiou is seen in many of our
churches, here is an opportunity for an ex
odus as marked as that of Joseph Miller or
lirigham Youth.
Theu we pass to scents which have no
theological associations. Why do we go to
th Rhine to ser the Dome of Cologne or the
castled crag of L'racheufel ? Here are tur
rets of granite and feldspar and castles of
basaltic rock, lifted high into the air for hun
dreds of feet, carved with a surer hand aod
clearer eye than ever fatdiioned church or
stronghold. One. for iuhtance, which is thus
described : Turret or tower, one hundred .
and twenty feet in circumference; brokeD I
vi uuiiiiuq auf7 v' a 11 on, rvim.n.iu n
battlerneoted tuiret; the whole stiucture
graceful in proportions and details, resem
bling an old castle somewhat in ruins, even
to the porthole, made by small apertures ia
turret and bai-e." Then we have pyramids
of baaltic columor, as massive and vast as
those of Egypt, says the wiiter. aud of many
colors, mainly of a d ep red flint from the
salts of iron, but not unfrrquently of a deli
cate gray, saftron, a Iiht gamboge, pink and
green, aud the ashes of roses. Then we have
cascades aud rocky gorges atd caverns.
The cascades especially ! One fall one hun
dred ami fifteen fet. another three hundred
and fifty feet, ending in .heeted foam and
rsii bow-tinted spray before it reaches the
ground. There are valleys of chalk-colored
rocks more marvellous than the Dover cliffs,
which Shakespeare paints ia his immortal
poetry, and volran. es ever throwing up mud
of the consistency of thick cream, so that
the surrounding forest trees are covered with
mud on their topmost branches. In one
pi ice there areslrrams and sp inting spr n s of
tiot water; five streams of boiling water ,
are told, in poicelain chanuelsof manv hues

aides of the rocks. Over this rise masses of
por shadowing over waters of ultramarine
blue, with rings of rainbow tints, yellow,
orange bdJ red cf "astounduig beauty." be
(tu.it g bright vermillion and then silvering
into a clearcers like that of a crystal and a
Color like the turquoise.
All of this so far above the level of the set
that every nitht in the year brings frost!
But the air is so clear and gentle and rarified
that although the mot ning shows the delicate
tiuttd flower to be fretted wich fiost, as
though traced with delicate lacework, the sun
dissolves the frost as though it were a dew,
without tirgeing the bloom of the flower or
witheiing a leaf or stem. Ann we come to
tho geysers, the most extraordinary phenom
enon ot all. Looking from one point an
xtinr volcanic craur.callod.queerl enough,
"Old Faithful" the eye takes in the whole
geyser valUy, with its thousand steam jets
and graceful fountains, ne&tled between high
hills covered with foliage. It is hard to
write of these geysers without our imagina
tion carrying us away. There is the old
"Comet Geyser," for instance, who has made
his cn reputation already. A roar like that
of a tornado and a stream leaping two bun
dled feet iuto the air, throwing out masses
of steam only th'nk of it ! Not to speak
of the mud spring, as yet unnamed, but cer
tainly ddsei viug great reuown, for this spring
throws up at least a thousand jets of steam
within a space of one hundred aud fifty feet,
discharging minute particles of fine clay, of
the purest white and orange and pink, ready
for the moulder to woik into the porcelain.
S.) we might continue this story, for there
is leally no end to it. Nature in a fautastic
mood has hail her way iu this strange coun
try, and future ages will find the pilgrim
looking for the wonderful and a we-insnirin?:
- I " J
the man of science stekiug to read the rid
dles of our myj-terious planet ; the weary
) worker craving a summer's rest ; the sfrick
J en invalid yearning for the health-restoring
I waters and vapois and midiciual springs
j which here abound. We as yet scarcely
' know anything of tho Yellowstone. The In
dians occupy the approaches to the region,
aud thus far it has been only seeu by armed
men and road builders, forcing their way into
the wilderness to find a path for the northern
road to the Pacific. Every .day these pioneers
of enterprise and civilization make an ad
vance, and as we have said, each step devel
opes some new wonder f nature. In a fuw
years the locomotive will carry the homes of
civilization iuto these hidden and forbidden
territories, the Indian will be forced into
countries nearer the setting sun, and the re
gion so wisely set apart as a rational park
will become a summer resoit for our citizens
acd for travellers from other lands, riv llin ;

HAIR
RENEWER.
Every year increases the popularity
of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We can
assure our old patrons that it is kept
fully up to its high standard; and it
is the only reliable and perfected prep
aration for restoring Gray or Faded
Hair to its youthful color; making it
soft, lustrous, and silken. The scalp,
by its use, becomes white and clean.
It removes all eruptions and landruffj
and, by its tonic properties, prevents
the hair from falling out, as it stimu
lates and nourishes the hair-glands.
By its use, the hair grows thicker and
stronger. In baldness, it restores the
capillary glands to their normal vigor,
and will create a new growth, except
in extreme old age. It is the most
economical Hair Dressing ever used,
as it requires fewer applications, and
pjives the hair a splendid, glossy ap
pearance. A. A. Hayes, M.D., State
Assayer of Massachusetts, says, w The
constituents are pure, and carefully
selected for excellent quality; and I
consider it the Best Preparation
for its intended purposes."

Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Among the great
discoveries of modern
science, few are of
more real value to
mankind than this ef
fectual remedy for all
diseases of the Throat
and Lungs. A vast
trial of its virtues,
throughout this and
other countries, has
shown that it does
surelv and effectually
control them. The testimony of our best citi
zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
Cherrt Pectoral, will aud does relieve and
cure the afflicting disorders of the Throat and
Lung3 beyond any other medicine. The most
dan-rerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consump
tion, cured by this preparation, are public
ly known, so remarkable as hardlv to be be
lieved, were they not proven beyond dispute.
As a remedy it is adequate, on which the oublic
may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs,
the forerunners of more serious disease, it saves
unnumbered lives, and an amount of suffering
not to be computed. It challenges trial, and con
vinces tne most sceptical, f.very lamily should
keep it on hand as a protection against the early
and unperccived attack of Pulmonary Affections,
which are easily met at first, but which become
incurable, and too often fatal, if neglected. Ten

be without ir As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest of childhood, Cherry Pectoral
