Fairly awed into a bravado as reckless as it is strange to ns, we crawl mm upon loitering lodges to peer into sheer depths of untold rnggedness: we grasp wuu aeaiu-iiKe ciutcn some over hanging limb, and swing out npon a promontory, beside which the apex of the highest cathedral spire in the world would be as a sapling in height. We crawl where at home we would hardly dare look with telescope, and in the mad excitement of the hour tread with perfect abandon brinks the bare thought of which, in subsequent sober senses makes us faint of heart and dizzy of head. -Eager now for Btill greater horrors of depth, blind to everything but an intolerable desire to behold the most savage of nature's upheavals, the shoit ride to the Royal Gorgo is made with illy-conoealod impatience. Tf our first experience npon the brink of the Grand Canyon was startl-'ng, this is ab solutely terrifying, and the bravest at the same point became moat abject of cowards in comparison at the other. At the first point of observation the walls, though frightfully steep, are nevertheless sloping to a more or less extent; here at the Rcyal Gorge they are sheer preoipioes, as perpendicular as the tallest house, as straight as if built by line. So narrow is the gorge that one would think the throwing of a stone from side to Bide the easiest of accomplishments, yet no living man has ever done it, or succeeded in throwing any object bo that it would fall into the water below.

For some distance we scramble over and between monstrous boulders, and then reach the narrow and almost absolutely perpendicular crevice of a gigantic mass of rock, down which we must let our selves 100 feet or more. As we reach the shelf or ledge of rock npon which ' the great rock has fallen and been sun dered, we glance back, but only for a second the thought of our daring mak ing ns sick and dizzy. But a step or two more and the descent just made sinks into utter insignificance, compared to what is before us. Then we had the huge walls of the parted rock as the rails cf a staircase ; now we have naught but the smooth. rnil.irlAil cmrfnr-A nf tha storm-T7ashed boulders to cling to, and 'il m - on eiiner s ue oi our narrow way depths at the bottom of which a man's body could never be discovered with human eye.

Overhanging crags, black and blasted at their summits, or bristling with stark and gnarled pines, reach uo into profoundly dizzy heifthts. while lower down monstrous rocks threaten to topple and carry to destruc tion any foolhardy climber who would venture upon them. Among all the thousands who have visited the Grand Canyon and the Royal Gorge, harm has befallen none, for despite the seeming horror of the situation, the appalling depths and rugged paths, the fascination of the danger appears to give birth to greatest caution. The canyon, except in the dead of winter, is approachable only from the top, the walls below being to precipitous and the river such a tor rent as to defy all access. When frozen, as the waters are for brief periods during the coldest months, the way up the cau you may be accomplished, but only at the risk of personal comfort and not a little danger. There are seveuty-two postmistresses in the United States. Ancient Postal Connection!. In our modern speed of railroad travel and the consequent facilities in the transmission of mail matter all over the whole civilized world, it is well enough to look back to the time when letter writing was a luxury indulged in only by a few, and communication between friends at a distance woll-nigh an imfos sibility. In its first application the word pott was applied to a courier or carrier of messages. The use of posts, some waiters Bay, originated with the Fenians. Their kings, in order to have intelligence of what was pass!ng through 11 the provinces of their vast domin ions, placed sentinels on eminences at convenient distrncos, where towers were built. These sentinels gave notice of putilio occurrences from ono to another with a very loud and shriil voi!e, by which news was transmuted irom one extremity of the kingdom to another with great expedition. But as this could not be practiced-f xoept in the case of general news, which it was expedient that the whole nation should be ac quainted with, Cyrus appointed couriers, and places for post horses and honses on all the high-roads, for the recerition of the coniiers, where they were to de liver their packets .to the next, and so on. This they did night and day, stopped by no inclemency of weather, and they are represented to have moved with astonishing speed. Xerxes, in his famous expedition against Greece, planted posts from the Korean Sea to Shushan, or Snsa, to send notice thilhor of what might happen to his army; he placed also messengers from station to station, to convey his packets, at such distances from each other as a horse might easily travel. The regularity nnd sw'ftness of the Roman posts were like- am . w.so SAimiraDie. uiuoon observes : " The advantage of receivinflr tho earli est intelligence, and of conveying their orders with celerity, induced the emper ors to establish, throughout thpir exten sive dominions the regular institution of posts. Houses were every where erected at the distance only of five or six miles; cacnoi tnem was constantly provided with forty horses; and by the help of these relays it was easy to travel a hun dred miles a day along the Roman roads." in the time of Theodosius. Cesarius. a magistrate of high rank, went by post from Antioch to Constantinople. He began his journey at night, was in Can- padoda (one hundred and sixty-five nines irom Antiocu) the ensuing eve ning, and arrived at Constantinople the sixth day about noon. The whole dis tance was seven hundred and twenty five Roman, or six hundred and sixty- fivo English, miles. This service seems to have been very laxly performed till the time of Trajan, previous to whose reign the R jman messeagcts were in the habit of eoizing for the public service any horses that came in their way. Some regularity was observed from this time forward, as in the Theodosian code men tion is made of post-horses, and orders given for their regulation. Throughout all this period posts were only used on special occasions. Letters from private EersDns were 'conveyed by private ands, and were confined for the most part to business of sufficient urgency. let to judge tue correspondence of ancient times from the immense number of Egyptian, Babylonian, and Persian seals still in existence, it must have been considerable. Posts disappeared from Europe with the breaking np of the Roman Empire. The modern postal establishment is said to have originated with King Louis XI., of Franco, abont the middle of the fifteenth century.
