a aouna lliinKer. and a
learned physiologist. We shall never
forget how tempest-tossed we wore
when we first found oursrslf the happy
posscHfcor of a male child without the
slightest knowledge of what to Ho for
h'a comfort and protection. An lino-
rnet nurse 6dgeled around the room
day and night, sang melancholy dit
ties, and rocked vehemently, while
the child cried continually with a
loud voice, and wo wept, prayed, and
philosophiied, by turns. Reasoning
on general pt rrcipl es, we at lust camo
to the conclusion that inasmuch as
the child was large and vigorous, there
must bo some mistake on the part of
the nurse that he was not quiet and
comfortablo, we fortified ourself in
that oiiinion by a faithful reading of
wnat air. combe had today on babies
in general, me rcsultol this consid
eration of his opinions was a prompt
munition in me wnoie nurmry de
partment, and a trai sfer of puin from
the baby to the nurse, who spiod
humbled and charrrined as she saw
her time honored system aummarilr
set aside the pins, paregoric, catmint,
and cradle driven out while pure air,
sunlight, and common scuse walked in
Oh 1 what sighs, what groims, what
doubtful ahakinga of the head, what
suppressed lauirhtcrand whisnt-rinirs in
rtho hall wo hoard during the lirl few
dayi alur tho inauguration of that
dynasty of health, happiness, and rest
to that Dew -born soul.
When tho three hours crv bcirnn
that day, which ancient dames assured
us was a custom that hud been fuiih
fully kept by all tho sons of Atlnni
from lime immemorial, wo ordered
tho little sufferer to be promptly
stripped to tho skin and pnt in a warm
bulb ; that brought instant relief, af
ter which he was dressed in a lew
light garments hung on the shoulders,
with no iwaddling bands, no pressure
on the lungs or bowels, and laid down
to sleep. He was fed (according to
Combo) every two hours by day, and
but once during the night. After that
we had peace, though eternal vigilance
nn our part was ita price The cus
tom of pinning babies up as tight as
a drum is both cruel and absurd. We
asked the antiquarian who tortured
our first born in that way, why she
did it t "The bones of young buhies
are so soft and their flesh to tender,"
said she, "that they are in constant
danger of dissolution unless tightly
pinioned together." We soothed her

A RIVAL TO NIAGARA FALLS.
nike river is the south fork of tho
Co.lunl.ia, having th ulluriiiito name
ot Lewis river. The valley of the
Sunk, lies along an almost direct line
from tho south pass of the Rocky
mniinaina, and in early days it fur'
nisliet. the most tiritcti-ul route nr.
land io the Pacific, in iis descent
over llio elevated p'ains of Idaho,
abouMUO miles from whence it lakes
iisristin the lincky mountains, Snake
river tirms tho great Shoshone Enlls.
J he ! or hero runs through a narrow,
roi'lyizni'ge, which widens ami lernii
nates sbruptly in preeipitaie dills, the
stimuiit of which ia about one hundred
feet aluve the level of the rapids, anu
"o.iieii that the traveler can onlv
'tiesci.d at rn point an old Indian
tr nil, -its numerous wintlings tiiaking
it aKiut a mile in length. Following
th r truil slowly and carefully, the
toirist will iu due time find himself
standing upon tho hank of llio river
ol a level with the rapids, and over
b'.king tho fulls. The witkh of the
iver at this point has been variously
estimaied j we thought it at least iwo
1 he rapids here form
a series of cascades, ranging from thir
ty to sixty leet each in height, and
just below them tho river, in an un-
broken uifss, leaps two hundred and
ten feel into the bottomless pit below.
The course of the river at Ibis point
is almost uuo east and west ; the con
tourr.f the fulls is that of an irregular
horseshoe, and their width, following
the course of tho water, is at least
four hundred yards. Although the
river is not ijtiito aa wide at this point
as the Niagara river,thc fills are, high
er and quite as beautiful. Tho most
complete view of tho falls, including
tho river above and below tho rapids,
cliffs, and surrounding Scenery, is ob
tained from Lookout I'oint a narrow
capo of rocks projecting from the
main bluff about 300 yards lower down
on the river thun tho fall, so narrow
that two persons cannot walk abreast.
Siandiug upon fliis point, I will en-
dcavor to name tho prominent places
of interest.
Tho first object which attracts our
attention is Euglo Rock, a pert ondicu-
lar pillar of rock, about 1 h I feet iu
heighth, rising from the main cut iract.
On the topmost penk of this rock an
American eagle hs. built his eyrie
Just above, and about llio centre ol
the cataract, is litilluid island, a small
lucky island covered with cedar and
jumper trees. rcorul smaller islands,
to the right and left ot the lur'e one,
cr iiallard Island, add to the beauty
and picturesquenessof thoscene. The
Two Sentinels two huge pillars are,
one on the north, tho other on the
ru.uiJt aide-, overlooking Ihe falls, and
reminding one of grim sentinels guard
ing their object. Lowcl down the
river, and from a higher standpoint.
one can observe a Sue panoramic view
of tho wholo the falls, the liiaming
rapitis, jutgie iuxk, lue t wo .-lenluiels,
tho Initre pillars of perpetiiul snrav
rising from tho bottom und near t tie
centre of tho calaruct, but extending,
us it rises, to either side, and made
beautiful by the many colored ruin
bows, which shed a halo of glory upon
Ihe whole scene. Mill lower down
the river is I'roepecl Gulch. Several
gentlemen of the putty, actuated by
t lie spirit ol adventure, determined to
atlcmpL, throua-h the gulch, to reach
tha river below tho falls. I hey low
ered themselves fifty feet on tho rope
down the perpendicular sides of a
lucky cliff Reaching firm ground,
they miinitged with but little difficulty
to scramble down about five hundred
feet to tho bunks of the river. Arri
ving lliere, they found that their
troubles had ju-l begun. They wero
six hundred yards timii tho talis, to
reach which their path lay around
and over some huge boulders of slip
pery rock, winding along the foot of
I he steep banks, and then through tho
looming and boiling waters, the heavy
swells of which reminded them fri
kinijly of tho breakers Iron) the sea

about that result. In the c'ood old

the bison is similar to coarse grained
