It also givis them the right to cross cither Lake Union, Salmon Bay, or the waters between, or the canal built or to he built between said Lake Union and the hay, said works to contain a draw ol such w iiltf as shall accommodate the •commerce passing through said waters, and to be “built upon plans approved by the secretary of war.

Piob.ibly u« more enchanting body ut water, lor IwaUty und variety td scenery, can Ist found on the American cun linen t oi along h-r almost limitless stretch of coast line. The mule taken is •hr ctly north, or nearly so, up the main ch nml of Admiralty Iclet, and a won derfully tine view ot tlie Souud and shore indentations is afforded. The writer had occasion to in ike the trip Horn Seattle t* Victoria, end can spu.ik imm personal knowledg ol the un surpassed beauty, not unmixed with cer tain elements ol grandeur, ol sea, shore, i,lands and distant mountain*. At nil e oclo kp. m. thu splendid steamer lett Seattle, bound lor Victoria. A large number ol passenger* imbarked lor the delightful trip. Amid the noisy bustle incident to the departure ol tbe steamer, tue waving of hamikurchiels and the hasty exchange of mutual congratulations. Che lust whistle was shrilly • umled. Lines were hastily cast off, the steamer moved slowly uway from the whan, »wuag round aud headed tor the entrance,, of Admiralty Inlet. Over the broad ex panse oi the -inland sea” hung an opaque cloud ot log. This log bank, added to a moonless and starless night, rendered the prevailing darkness almost palpable Obp.-cls could not lie sighted two lengths of the steamer. Later the fog bank lifted from the face of the water, aud then the pde *tars peeped in a hall hesitating way through the misty curtain of the night. Wearied by the fatigue of travel, the excitement ol the shifting scenes, and lulled by the dull grinding of the uiachin cry and the ceascles- phishing of the wheels, the passengers were soon wander ing through the shadowy realm* of dream land. Through the mist nod darkness the noble steamer sped rapidly on in her walerly course. Here and there, a* she passed down tbe -Great Mediterranean of America,” bright friendly gleam* shot ath wart tha gloom, sent forth from light sta tions located along th* shores at safe and convenient intervals. Occasionally ths dismal moan from tha fog-whistle came booming far over the dreary watery waste. To these sights and sounds the eyes and ears of the slumbering passengers were sealed, All on board slept but the pilot, the quartermaster, aud the man eu the lookout. Before the gray dawn shone dimly over the distant shon-s ol the Sound the steam* er had emerged from the narrow confines of the Inlet, and was plowing her way across the broader stretch ol son known as the Straits of Juan <to Fur*. By ones and twos ftt first, and soon liy hulf-dozons, tin* passengers made a (frowsy appearance on the »3«ok. when it became known we hat) entered the Straits. B*yond the most nr (hut desire the morn:n« was lovely. En the sun rose a thin white vail of tog hur.> above the wide expanse of sea. Tltis wi s quickly dispelled by the earliest mornir.} beams. Hitoh a sight R» greeted the e\t wind pen c»n describe or what pencil o: brush adequately portray! Behind us stretched the broad wake ol the steamer, the waves duncipg merrily and spa.kling iu the sou a wide h«lj of gleaming sapphius. Farther away ap peared tlie mouth or entrance of Admiral ty Inlet, through which wo had steanud less than au hour before. Southward ol the entrance could plainly bo discerned Point Wilson, Middle Point, Protection Island, Cape George, and the tntrunce to Puri Discovery. Abreast, New Dungeons* appeared in full, unobstructed view. Far above the dim and shadowy shore line rose the lofty and snowier*sled peak of Mount Cusstra, towering neatly 4000 (eel above the sea level. Touched by tli>* car iy rtjs of light . the snow glc .tncd /vith a tierce ios< tire, so bright and o .zzot g that the eye shrunk'from the glare ■with a sen-e ol pda. Running westward, a high i ange of densely wooded mnutitaius trends along parallel with the coast. These shone with a dark aerial bluish hue under the bglil ol a cluudltsa o'»y.

As it to highten and inten sity the enchanting spectacle, the sun showered down a flood ot light, and the fresh delicious morning breize blew ioftly over the ssn. WUiU troksing the Straits, and just bc torc tbe •teamcr eutcrad Victoria harbor, a splendid view was caught ot thv Hi trance to Juan ilc Fuco. Duo west ot us stretched tho long, wide channel, unfit ted by a single island, the hues ot shore seeming to converge us they receded with a sinuous course toward the mouth ut the Strait. Dimmer and dimmer and leas distinct grew th«se receding lines, until the grayish land and greenish-blue waters genii y mingled and were lost in each other. Beyond these softly lading minks of laud stretched the limitless expanse of sea. With its feeble and uncertain vis. ion the bumau eye was scanning tbo east ern rim of the mighty Pacific ocean. A steam collinr waa just passing out, with • oargo •( coat from Beattie or TV coma, bound for San Francisco. Its long, narrow, black bull bad |iarttatly aunk below the horiton, aud the stack re* acmbled a slender apeak, from which trailed a dark banner ot smoko. Several teasels were entering, beating slowly down under a gentle wind, the rggii.g and bulls bearing a dim, phantom aspect. A'tei d of our ateamar, aud just ofl llic en trance to tlio Imib >r ot Victoria, several large ships rode at anchor, swinging list, lesaly with the sluggish title, with their suds flapping lazily in the morning breeze. —San Franciscan. s. t. mmm 4 m. ■ -DKII VI«H IN HARDWARE, PUMPS.
