For such is the Colonial- modus vivendi that one is compelled, by lawless necessity, to drag along, night and day, olothing, oooking utensils, and more especially in this uninhabited wilder ness where he iis obliged to carry tucker too, or endure the pinching coDsequences. About half a mile from Ross' Point we find ourselves at the entrance of «v gorge, which completely beggars description. Two irregular ranges of 'massive rook tower up, until at last they seem to hide their summits in the olouds, and extend for more than two miles on either «lde of the .river, whose bedizening murmur renders the scene frightfully grand. On the right-hand sida the river, a path— whioh might properly be called the " one man's pasß"— is entered. It as cends gradually till one finds himself perched on shelving rooks almost half a mile right above the swrf ace of the water. Here, men who have found amusement in orossing the Royal Truck could be seen banging on with their eyebrows to the projecting rooks, while others who never knew fear crawled along, snake-like, teem ing with cold sweat. A breathing-place at length gained, one of our party, who seemingly com manded more diction than the others, stopped short, looked all round and above him, and ex claimed, " Truly, nature is here exhibited in all her majestic grandeur ; and truly omnipotent is the great God the stupendous monument of whose oreative power we now contemplate." i Another of the party, whose bloodless "face fully indicated the alarms of the journey, scornfully eyeing him, thus replied : " Keep yer dixinary to yersel'. I was in Ireland's wilds ; I've been to the Highlands of Scotland ; crossed over the Rocky Mountains ; and them altogether wudn't make a patch to this in wild ness. Look lat the Greys an' tke Halls arguin' every day about nothin' at al at al, and well paid for ivery word of their non .sense, while we are half starved begging through the country ! Now they sent us np here to frighten the life out of us, and who knows how they may thrate us after it." The savant was sifting his memory for a fresh supply of jaw breakers when the leader gave the signal for the move.
