DY AN OLD I'IONEEII in no part of the United States can such sub lime, romantic and beautiful scenery be found as on the upper Mississippi. From Dubuque to the Falls of St. Anthony, the views in many places are majestic and delightful. No tour affords more real pleasure in the heat of summer, and is more invigorating to those who are in search of health and rest from excessive mental toil, as a passage on one of our spacious Western steam ers. Passenger-boats, fitted up in superb style, mid never over-crowded, depart daily from St. Louie to Galena, w here a class of boats equally convenient and comfortable, but drawing less water, accommodate those who are destined to the ',Falls." The calcareous bluffs in many places exhibit pyramids of naked rocks, which will remind the European traveller of the crumbling walls of ancient castles and lofty towers. Frequently they rise to a giddy height above the water, while the scattered oaks that cling to their sur face seem to be mere shrubs. At one time the river runs between two perpendicular walls of rock that overhang its banks, and appear as if by some mighty convulsion of nature they were separated to give an undisturbed passage of the water to to the ocean. In another place, a cliff overhangs one bank, while an alluvial plain stretches away from the oppo.ffe shore, clothed in luxuriant grass and herbage, and sparkling with flowers and other rural beauties of vegeta ble nature. in another place the hills recede from either side—the river is widened and di widest into divers:: channels, which pass between ' innumerable Islands. These are covered with a dense growth of forest tress, and with tangled masses of shrubbery and vines. The maple and ash constitute the principal forest growth of these Islands, while stunted cedars adorn the cliffs, and gnarled oaks are scattered along their summits. A few places, deserving the attention of the traveller, will be noticed in this communication. Wen-rA-Surat PnAmy, on the right bank, is one of the most beautiful in Minnesota. It is about nine miles long and three broad, stretch ing along the river, and gently swelling up from its shore. The landscape is sufficiently undulat ing, to make the view from the river delightful. It is reported of the Winnebago Indians, when they reached this prairie, on their journey from Wisconsin to their new home, near Crow-Wing river, that they lingered here with a peculiar fondness for their old hunting-grounds. They cherished the associations of the river and prai rie, threw oil their blankets, and seemed deter mined to take up their abode in this fertile plain, until a reinforcement from the garrison of Fort Crawford to their feeble escort, taught them the propriety of submission to the arrangements of their “Great Father." Around this prairie, like an amphitheatre, are ranges of bluffs, divided by ravines. In places they are broken and precipitous, then gently sloping, covered with timber, and exhib iting a beautiful landscape. At the u,:per end of this prairie was, recently, the ancient vil lage or lrab-pa-Slash, or the Red Leaf Indians.— One year since, about one hundred "pale faces" arrived on this beautiful location, and now a village and a farming settlement around of two hundred families occupy their delightful grounds. In no part of the 'Upper Mississippi river do the rocks, cliffs, and naked bluffs, that line the shore, exhibit more romnntic and picturesque views than from Prairie du Chien to Lake Pepin. Frequently the upper portion of the bluff is a naked, perpendicular precipice, extending along the river like a wall, or peering up like a regular pyramid. On the west side are several of these pyramids, which appear as if cloven in their cen tre, leaving a perpendicular wall of rock exposed to the river. A few miles above Lake Pepin was another Indian village, of the Sioux Nation, on the west side of the river, called 'l'u-lang.a. rna.nr, or the bird with a red wing. Near this village is a half pyramidial bluff, with the grass and herbage growing to its very top. Nut far from Wa-pa•shah prairie, and somewhat in its rear, is a range of eminences, that have received the name of Tan EA.crm Conspicuous among them is one elevation called the "Sugar Loaf." or more applomiately, the "Twns: Mc:Lai/1.1N." Its name has been derived from an Indian legend, which ran as fol lows: Two bands of the Sioux quarreled about a re markable hill, situated some fifty miles above the Mt-pa-shah, or Red Leaf Peon ic, in which the latter claimed an equal interest, and IA h :eh n , lang-a-ma-ne, or the Red-Wing band refused to yield. All diplomatic negotiations having failed, and exceedingly hostile feelings engendered in the dispute, had increased to that pitch, that both parties resol‘ed on war. Yet, they were of the same nation, belonged to the same tribe, and anciently had come from the same family.— The preliminaries of uncovering the tomahawk, holding a season of fasting, and the scalp-dance, had been enacted by each party; and blood, the blood of kindred, mu,t flow! The Red Leaf party entered on the war-trail, with the fell pur pose of exterminating their brethren, the Red- Wings, who held possession of the contested hill. At this fearful crisis, Wah-han Ton-la ("Father of Life") took pity on the deluded bands, with the resolve to defeat the wicked machinations of WaJan She-ha, (the Evil Spirit.) Calling to his aid the Thundercr, he raised a storm-cloud, on which he rode from his dwelling place in the Western sky, and made the night fearfully dark, so that the war-party lost their way. Next morning, when the terrible storm hail passed over, they found themselves on Wa-pa-shah Piai rie, near their village. In the darkness and storm, the "Father of Lila" had divided the mount, and removed one half to the vicinity of the Eagle Rocks for their benefit, and lett the other with the Red-Wing people. Thu. peace was preserved, and front that time the two bands have been friends. La Montange 7 ai Trempe a r CCM is an isolated mountain, or rocky island, that, at a distance, seems to Ilse from the centre of the river, to the height of several hundred feet, %%hese it termi nates in crumbling peaks of naked rock, and ap peals like some gigantic battlement of a former age. Around its base is an island covered with forest tree', whose deep, green foliage Rums a pleasant contrast with the barren cliffs which cast their sombre shadow over the liver. It is a mile or more in circumference, and the loftiest eminence on the river above the Wisconsin.— , The rocky strata, like the adjacent Wolfs, is mag nesmn limestone, with a base of sandstone, and has the appearance of a portion of the bluffs cut off from the main shore, by some mighty con ' vulsion, or the rushing of the waters in sonic by-gone period. The two channels of the river, ' including the Island, are mole than a mile wide, and heighten the grandeur of the pi aspect. his singular mount has long attlacted the attention of the royagcnis of the Upper Mississippi, as it did the aborigin es of the country, who called it Choud.ah-hab, or the WWI in the rater.— The Sioux regarded it as the residence of a Ma, kan, or spirit, and both classes have a supersti tious fancy, that at a certain season in every year it sinks a few feel in the rater—as doubt less it does at every rise of the river. Hence, the French royergems named it La Montagne qui 'limp duns reaur—“The Mountain that soaks in the rater." The ascent is difficult, not to say perilous. The summit is a not row ridge, but a few yards in width, running, north and south; the west side is a precipice and the east side a grassy slope. From its summit the view is grand and imposing. The scene unfolded is spacious and splendid. Hill-top on hill-top, for est after forest, are seen on all sides, while far below the feet of •the spectator, the Mississippi rolls, iu devious channels, amidst its numerous,l woody Islands. CPWhen Dante was at the Court of Signore della Scala, then Sovereign of Verona, the prince said to him one day, "I wonder, Signor Dante, that a man so learned as you arc. should be hated by all my court, and this fool") pointing . to his favorite buffoon, who stood by him) "should be by all beloved." Dante replied: "Your excel lency would wonder less, if you considered, that we like those best who most resemble ourselves." pA country physician went to see a patient and took with him a gun, that he might wing any game he encountered in crossing the fields. A friend meeting him on the way, asked him whither he was going. "To see a patient," was the an swer. "What, then," said his friend, "do you really fear that you will miss him in the ordi nary way, that you take your gun with you?" 127 Mrs. Partington says she can't think how it is, the arm of the sea don't get broke, when so many ships pass over it, *l,OO PER ANNUM, IN ADVANCE' [WHOLE INU3II3ER, 1,190. .s'imban Ilcaoing.

I saw him stoop and take a stone that lay in the path way of passing wheels, and east it out of the road. This sight did me good. This :tore might be struck by a passing wheel to the di-- comfort perhaps of a traveller, and possibly the injury of the vehicle. It was hind in the man to remove it. “What a trifle for a newspaper paragraph!” says a captious one. Not so, my friend. The act was small, but the motive noble—that small act, the pi inciple 011 wlucii it is based, is of un speakable value to the human race. I love to trace things, especially such things, to their fountain. That man had emotion in his soul when he stooped to pick op that stone. He felt right. It was kiwi in Ii I have a right to think that act was but one of the links of a chain—and never was a chain made of better material—love for the is elfare of others. Such a chain is all gold. The man had done such things before, 1 could not doubt. Ile would do such things again. It cost him something to do this, for there was a pelting slum in of sleet, and he carried an umbi elle, and he must pause in his rapid walk to do it. Well done, my humble ;friend, if every other would stop and pick out of , the path of his fellow travellers through life the things that VOX and annoy them, how many sunny faces there would be in the place of scowl ing ones! Drops make a shower; give enough of them. Such acts as this man's—give enough of them, and how great a shower of blessings.— flow much misery would be prevented! I shall not stop here. He that will do such things will do greater things. That will show what the fountain is. He has a kind heart. He will remove larger_ stones than that from the path of human life. Give me that man for my adversity. lle who has honored the small draft will honor the greater. llrs good will not be exhausted by that effoit. It was a trine, was it? ('lease then think, my friend, it can be but a trifle for you to do such a thing. Do every sort of thing—anything that will remove obstructions out of the path of hu man happiness.
