A TRIP TO SCOTLAND. — — To the Editor ot,TErs Pon: As requested I wth give you it few jottings of nay trip to Scotland. 00 the 10tb of August, at daylight, I sailed down the St. Lawrenoe from Montreal on the Allan Liner, Pretorian, and ae the vveath• er was all that could be desired we had a floe view of towns, villages the pretty vein along the banks of this great river, arriving in Quebec about 5 p. m., as there was some 00090 10 pot on board. I, along with other passengers, went up into the pity and load a look around and as the day was Maar we had a eptendid view from the 0101101 ot Levis opposite and the chipping away down below as several hundred feet. A gentleman pointed not a wbite vessel thee WU noting np to make another trial to reaoh the North Pole. A little past midnight we left Qaebee and when daylight came we were sailiog in the Gulf. Se.terday, 1816, we paned through the Smits of Belle Iele with fine, clear, satiny weather and land plainly seen on both eidee. Lots of ice, bergs were stranded on either side, all shapes and sizes, they looked pretty with tbe son shining on them. Aber we paned through the Straits and poet the barren rooky island of Belle Isle, the last land we were to see till we hailed Old Ireland, one very large iceberg, like a little island and perbape 100 feet high, hove in eight. Oue ostattia altered hie course and we paseed quite near enough to get a good Bight of It. Sbortly after pearling the ioe a pastenger near me called cut "See the whale." I looked and reboot 10 rode away was one of the monsters of the deep disappearing, its tail in the air. It rose to the endue several tinoes with its bead out of the water, then dived and its tail would go ap again. Several timers a long amber colored arm would be hoieted op and go over to one aide and there were emulsion - ally email jete at water squirted op on its bask. It had a black lump in place of a fie and its tail was rounding at the corners instead of sheep. I sew oar captain a few minutes afterwards and he said it was an °dopes or devil ash and that it had o young whole 10 its mei embrace end that it was rarely seen in that latitude. The rest of tbe journey wee smooth and pleasant and no nokness. On Friday, 19111, we were sailing along the Irish coast which was quite a relief after eo many days of watery waete. As We had 881 bead of cattle for Birkeu- head we steamed pad the Isle of Man and eoon were in sight of the Welab mountain, steering for the month of the Mersey. When we got there we pained 'Clip in all directions goine who knows where. As we got op the river darknese set in and the many signal lights, red, white and green wee quite a sight. Gide ing near Liverpool we passed New Brigh. ton, a famone pleasure resort. It wag all lighted up with catered lights by the thoriaand and its Eiffel tower, some 600 or 700 feet high, ligbterl from top to bottom, was a grand eight. There were lote of fine eteseuere oarrying to and from, bangle playing, dangling and all sorts of amneernent going on. We got to Birkenhead about 11 p, m. and moved alongside the landing stage. Shortly after they anloaded the cattle prinoipally feted °envie and a fow North West range oattle, the Ontario ones were put off that end went along all right but the first "Western," a large fellow with great horns pnt his head out at the opening in the side of the ship and es 10 rained heavily he wheeled ronnd and went back. The foreman who bed thaw of them nail "Oh beet forgot his imbecile and has gone back tor it," When the rattle were tended we meting round and went down the river on oar way to Glasgow. Saturday the 201.11 wee a ohoioe day and we had e line view of the Isle of Mon and Be calf. When see same to the Scotch coast the son was shining bright and the green fields, with pante pasturing in there and others with yellow grain, looked very fine.
