The following attempt at a tribute to the

toile and hardships, and of distinguished
usefulness and success.. An account of sev
eral of them. will be found in the Appendix
to the "Life of Mactudy," and in the

member of that Presbytery is believed to be
preparing, at - this time, a history of ;the
Presbyterian Church in that region, and a
biography of most of its early .ministers.
May his labors be crowned with success.
When Mr. Wylie took, his seat in the
Presbytery of Redstone, the old mother .

several years the. co-Presbyters ; •ofr Mr. :
.Wylie, finished their course on earth; Most,
of them at an extended old age, many years
before Mr. W.'s death. Some account of
several of them will be found in the works
already referred to. Some tribute. to the
memory of the Rev. Messrs. Laird, Graham,

A Young',Lady's Day at Itiagara.
MY VERY DEAR PARENTS:—We reached
the Cataract Heinle after midnight. At
about a quarter past five we woke and felt
tliat our impatience to see Niagara must be
.gratified. So we walked down on the Amer
' itsini side, anr there for the first time
Niagara burst upon our view. I expected
at first to be disappointed, but it far ea
deeded my ideas in grandeur and beauty.
After one good •look we went back to
breakfast, and then started out for Goat
Island. I tliought the .Anterioan rapids
were enough to ~ c ome here to see, but ap.
preaching the American fall, we dipped our
fingers in the fall, and wondered and ad-
mired until every adjective and exclamation
was' exhausted.- Then we went round to the
Canada fall, and up the tower, where the
-view of the deep green waters was inexpree.
sibly beautiful.
We then took a carriage, and'visited Sue.
pension bridge and the whirlpool. , At the
bridge we jumpedont, and walked half-way
scrag, cirryin sobie - stories;. which we
dropped, following them with our eyes till
they reached the'water. This give ita come
idea of the immense height we stood above
the water—two hundred and fifty feet. The
view_oLthe falls from_here wan magnificent,
and that huge gully, with the rushing flood
at its bottom, is inconceivably grand.
Tien wo.. , rode on to the whirlpool, and
walked or stumbled down- a most fearfully
ragged mountain side, to the level of the
water, which foams and rages moat furiously
there, and it is ;rue that •the pressure forces,.
up the Water in the middle of the river to
the height of eight or ten feet above what
it -is on its -banks. It was grand to see it
whirl round, and rush. through that narrow
passage, to deep, and .with•snoh tremendous
speed. I think few descend that hill, but
though we were almosititroome with heat
abd,eltiatOtion- When we reached the top,
Weleltmost richly repaid.
Then we rode.. time again. But I was
noS(3retasatiafied. I had seen the Falls, nut
had' not been,thrilled to my heart's core, as I
expected to be. I ached to get nearer the .
deep H'ormesbOe - Fall. So after dinner we
'topic a'ride down the inclined plane and
erossed,the ferry, and just hare our deepest
feelings and enjoyment commenced. We
were perfectly fascinated with thisnear view
of the Amerloan Fall. I never saw any
thing eci - Zecfutiful;',..loNd. on it we fixed our
eyed the rivet' and up the long.hill
oft,the.Canada side to the Clifton House.
But a deeper feeling stole over me and
awed my very soul as ,we went down again
below the Fall,,and crept along under Table
until we stood under the sheet of wa
ter. This was grand and, terrible in the ex
treme. We stood here nearly - half jin hour,
and+ could look in under the dark-Oven flood.
We' were within, I should think, two rode
and a half or three , rods, of :,Termination
Rook, find ,ecyeral , part,ies, paased,us on, their
way there and,backin oil cloth dresses, and
almokr, d - ill:sai we ,conld. see and_ understand
as - with whete we stood as, to change our
dress and go to Termination Rock. The
wind blew the spray from ts, so that an urn
brella was all the protection we needed. We
were paid a hundred times by this view. We
Could seem to Appreoisteithmdepth of water
and,height of the , Fall ' , muck much more:
The4hundering noise and the danger - of our
pbsitioit; and .the' *Ater; water, water foam
inn, struggling, turabling, down from such a
height,into that awful pit, ,00mpletely, over
whelmed me, and I can never 'forget the im
pressione itr made.
Then we walked out‘a few rods till the
very centre of the Fall was in full view,
anii.were, spellbound there for half an,hour
agaiia,: The water seems so deepi , andtruns
over so smooth and green; in such trnojerty,
itl 4 wituimoke truly aublime than any thing I
ever plati , . This I think the very grandest

success. Theiresult of their operations last

which went-down the stream to salt water.
They expeceby their operations this season
to produce a number equal to that of last
year. The young fish which have gone to,
the salt water will, when 'fully grown, go
back to the waters in which they were. bred,
at spawning time. It is expected that the
fish-which went down the stream last season,
will -arrive at maturity and return to the
place of their birth in the Spring of 1850.

Letters from the North.
NEW ROUTE OF .TRAVEL-MUTING OF THZ
AHRIMAN BOARD..
Hitherto our route of Eastern travel from
Wisconsin, has been mainly through Chi-,
cago.'a More direct mite has been
opened, across Like Michigan, from Mii,
waukie to the month of Grand River, and
so on by a new Railroad to Detroit. We
offer no opinion as to the feasibility of this
route. as yet, ritisto be tested. It is cer
tainly nearer; but whether the navigation
of the lake will permit a connexion during
the Winter, is, perhaps, yet doubtful.
We started from home "on September 3d,
with a view of attending the meeting of
the Ameriein Board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions at Detroit, and to visit
some friends in Northern Michigan. Our
passage across the lake was safe and pleasant,
except as annoyed by that worst of all ex
periences common- to , landsmen in tossing
steamboats, and we arrived at the mouth of
the Grand, River, at nine o'clock, in the
evening. Here a severe and somewhat ludi
crous trial for a time awaited us. It was
the first trip in which the boats had at.
tempted to make a connexion with the new
Railroad from! the East. We missed stays, as
the sailor says, and were obliged to lie, in its
dismal swamp,. without food or shelter, ex
cept in, a cold, railcar,, until four, o'clock in
the morning. Now, however, it is different
at that point, and regular. arid comfortable
trips are being made.
Twenty-five, miles of new. railroad now
brought,us to Grand Rapids. . This is an old,
settled place—now a city of about ten thou
sand inhabitants. It seemed to us, a; site of
unusual advantages. Inexhaustible water
power has long made it a central point for the
Northernlumber business, and opening, as it
now does, with the new railroad to the East
and the irest—as well as that which is pro
jeeted by govern men t,and already commenced
from South Carolina to Mackinawit cannot
fail to be a place of great and growing im
portance. The geology of the region is also
nigh], interesting. While the prevailing
superstratum is limestone—affording the
best of building materials—in the bed of the
river itself, there is below, cropping out at the
foot of the rapids, an inexhaustible deposit
Gipsum, already extensively used for
commerce and for building purposes. It
polishes beautifully, and the fronts of many
buildings are already ornamented with it.
Above the limestone, coal is seen eropping,out
at several places Eastward on this road, and
it would seem that the natural resources of
this regioa are every way abundant and
Promising. What is better, the, good people
of. Grand.RaPills ' were,early made sensible
of the importance of religious institutions:
There•are'already in the city, a large num
ber of churches, while same new and splen
did (perhaps too spleudid) structures are now
going up. In a word,-.partial;as we are to
our own State, we.will say, we have scarce
seen a place uniting more apparent advantages
than the Grand Rapids' of Michigan.
After. spending a day at, this- place, we.
took • the oars for Detroit. Proceeding E
ward, we passed through a region of peculiar
attraction, which we hardly knew before to
exist Almost• the entire route from Grand.
Rapids, to • Pontiac, forty .;miles North of
Detroit, is through a new and timbered
country: First, you-pass a gem of an open
ing' at Thorn-apple Creek„ where are seen a
remnant of Ottawa Indians, They appear
considerably civilized,.cultivate little farms,
and wear hats. We ' had some of -them in
the ories7 --- Next in following up the valley
of Grand River for thirty miles, one of the
most picturesque regions opened upon us,
that I have ever traveled. Meadows of- liv
ing verdure on each.side of a winding stream,
dotted here and there with newborn •vil
lages, but backed by heavy andinterminable
forests, presented Arcadian beauty to the
eye; while the fanciful, names. of lonia,
Ada, and Corunna, with. many others, gave
pleasing associations, with aetiquity to these
intelligent pioneers. For, let it not be sup
posed that theinhabitants of a new regien ,
must themselves be new or uncultivated.
Most-of these settlers are recently from the
older States. The ministers in general, are
a cultivated and able class of men. I found
one in particular, a Hebrew scholar, an au
thor, and a depository of great patristical
learning, serving a little .church, on this
hitherto almost unknown river. I may not'
say, more of him now.
At length we arrive at Pontiac. This. is
an old and highly cultivated place, on the
Eastern border of the State, deriving
its name, as is well known, from a celebrated
Indian chief. It now presents a villagoor
city, (for most of our villages are cities in this
region) of some four thousand inhabitants.
In another hour more or so, we were in
Detroit, having crossed the entire State in
about six hours. The whole road is strait
and excellent'; it passes a region of singular
beauty, and is i openingup to.wertith and cul
ture a vast, extent of new ,country.
Of the meeting at Detroit, we need, only
say at present, (as,it is so fully reported in
other quarters,) that it was one of harmony
and great interest. Such a privilege of Meet
ing and . communing with the good and great
of every portion of our country, does not
, often occur to Western men, and though a
'Presbigerian, and preferring, of course, our
own organization for similar purposes, I hope
never to Ceaeito respect and love the La - mer
jean Board of Foreign Missions. -
