On the morni • s of Wednesday, May 17th, a .ight spring day, our party, compose. of Mr. and Mrs. John Nichol, of Tu nberry, Mr. James Cochrane and the e itor, left Wingham on the 6.40 o'clock T. R. train on a holiday trip to the Old Land, having been ticketed throu h by Mr. H. Davis, the local agent o the Allan Line. Everything went al ng smoothly until we reached Palnierz on, where we had a delay of several h urs, owing to a car having left the trac at Hanover and we were compelled to ait for connection to Guelph. At Ga 1ph a special train was made up and r n to Toronto, arriv- ing at that city so • o four hours late. The large majority of our readers are so familiar with Toro i to that it will be un. necessary for us to speak of the place at any length. H wever, a few words at this time will nit be out of place. Thie city has mad wonderful strides in its advancement, nd is now considered one of the finest c' ies on the continent With progressive • nd enterprising ideas and a beautiful si e, situated on the To- ronto Bay, which is part of Lake On- tario, it has grow from a small hamlet in 1837 to a city -with a population of over 250,000 peopl e Its public buildings are substantially ereeted and its streets are well paved an s for the most part are kept in very good order. The residen- tial streets are pr =pally bordered by beautiful trees and the houses built with an idea to comfort as well as ap- pearances. The city has many beauti- ful and attractive parks, where the cool breezes from the lake can be enjoyed during the heat of a summer's day. The place was founded by Governor Simcoe, in 1704, and was Yen the name of York, by which title it as known until its incorporation ass ity in 1834, when it received the name t now bears. At that date it had a pop lation of less than 10,000, but gave pr mise of rapid growth, which has been fury realized. Leaving Toront i at 9 o'clock p. m., we are on our way to Montreal on board one of the best equ pped fast trains of the Grand Trunk Railway. On this route we pais throe h several important Eastern Ontario tot as, such as Oshawa, Port Hope, Cobourg Brookville, Belle- ville and Cornwall, nd we reach the beautiful city of Mo treal at 7 o'clock on the morning of T ursday, May 18th. On the trait, from T ronto to Montreal we met in with a nu ber of immigrants who were returning o the Old Land. From the illformati. a 1 could gather from them they has b en told some queer stories of the Domi ion. Two young men (bricklayers) ha visited Montreal and Toronto and wer not able to secure work. They came to this country with the idea that people ore looking high and low for men of t .ir trade. I asked why they had not vi ited more places than Toronto and M.. treal, and they replied, "If no work i these places, no work in the country." In this I believe they were mistaken a • d were built after the average immigrau , who are all 1n:t- willing to turn their h nd to any other work, except that to hich they have been used to in the ho e land. We had a very plea -ant visit of ten hours in Montreal )efore going on board the vessel. Montreal is the metropolitan city of 0 :nada and is one of the finest cities on he continent of America, he city is nilt at the base of Mount Royal, a eautiful wooded mountain which has b en laid out as a public park with pieta oscine driveways by which vehicles and thee conveyances reach the summit an from eShero a most gorgeous view obtained. For miles the River St. awrence can be seen coursing its w ys through well- tilled farm lands and Minute ; in the east the Laurentian nge of mountains loom up in stately ory, and in the south, on a clear day, ooh as welled, the Green Mountains of rmont are visible, besides giving the isitor a panoramic) view of the whole oi . The streets are well laid out and in e residential por- tion are lined With beautiful shade trees. Here many places of interest await the tourist, historioal, romantic and heroic) SI A YEAR IN ADVANCE associations are nunierons, and there is no oity in America Yeah% will reward the researches of the ku whelp -seeker more than the oity of Mo treat.

The spaoions and well -kept grounds which surround the •olid, =Delve build- ings of the differen ditties and chairs are well worth a sisit. Notre Dame Cathedral, whose teal spires can be seen towering over all ot ter buildings as we approaon the city of the train, is also claimed in the catesory of sight-seeing. One can visit these wers at any hour of the day, and a wag "flown view is had from the top. St. awes Cathedral, an- other of the lar. er Roman Catholic) sanctuaries, is alsoj a most interesting place. This edifice Is built after the model of the great St. Pet r's of Rome, on a scale one qnarter the si, .e of the original, and has been over twe ity-five years iu build- ing. The solidity aud handsome style of architecture whie 1 is noticeable through. out the oity; both in the resideutal and business portions, gives little room for comparisons.

The Chateau le Raruezay, ancient in its historic recie ds and architecture and associated wit some of the moat im- portant events n the history of Canada, was once the h rue of the commander of the British roes in Canada, and the house adjoiaiu was occupied by the successive Gov rnor•Generals of Cana- da. These reli s of ancient days still remain and ha been turned into the grunters of au istorio museum where many au intere sing hour may be spent. In a commercial sense Montreal is one of the important cities of the world. Being at the he td of ocean navigation the bulk of the _mports of Canada pass through this gageway and the same ap- plies to the exp arts during the season of navigation. Its teamships and crafts of every description, and the hustle that is continnally going on, night and day serves as an in ight into the trade that is being done at is point. We will ne t week deal with the ancient city Quebec and our sail down the beau 'ful St. Lawrence river and also a brie description of the lovely ocean trip on. the "Bavarian" from Quebec to Live pool.
