ing feats oi the age,—the glorious mountain
s ei>erv, and the vast and beautiful view ot
hi go land and valley which has so long feast
ed the eves of travelers at hockhsb Gap.—
• Go Ahead,*' however, is the motto ot the

think it would offer great inducements.) the
tide of travel will be permanen tly turned

as vou are born, reader. Let our spcakerB
