The prospect was as extensive as the eye could reach, diversified with mountains, hills and plains. Most ; ' of. the rmountains were covered with v. woods, but the hills and plains were cor vered with grass, presenting less of bright 4- green, however, than might be expected, tv if the summers oh this side of the rnuuntain were favored with rains as on the <' cast. The Rocky Mountains at the cast, presented the appearance of an immensejy large bank of snow, or large luminous ' clouds skirting the horizon. The Trois Tenons were in full view, and not very far distant at the north. Tlicy are a cluster of very high pointed mountains, not r less than ten thousand feet, rising almost perpendicularly, and covered with snow; five in number, but only three of them are k ao very high as to be seen at a great dis|j" _ tance, and therefore, takes the above name. U ere I spent much time in looking over the extended and varied scenery sometime filled with emotions of the sublime, in beholding the towering moim lams; sometimes with pleasure in tracing the windings of the stream in the vale below; and these sensations frequently gave place to astonishment, in viewing the courses in which the rivers flow on their way unobstructed by mountain barriers. After some hours occupied in this excurtj sion, I descended to the encampment, much gratified with what I had seen of the works of God. The soil of this valley and upon the hills, is black and rich, and the time will conn?, when the solitude which now prevails, will be lost in lowing of herds and bleating of flocks, and the plough will cleave the clods of these hills and vales; and from many alters will ascend the incense of prayer and praise.

Fairly this morning one of the oldest chiefs went about among the people, with a loin! voice explained to them the instructions given them lust evening; told them it was the sabbath day, and they must prepare for public worship.

For ihe Courier. Mr. Editor;?Have you, at any time recently, had occasion to cross the river at the Camden Ferry? But I need not ask the question, for I am sure you have not, or you could not have failed to congratulate those whose business called ihcrn frequently to the triul you were undergoing, on the near apnrouch of the completion of the Camden Bridge. As you can have had no experience, in relation to the difficulties a.id trials which those whose duties made it often necessary for them to cross the river had to encounter, will you permit me to congratulate them on the completion of the | Bridge, so far as to admit of its passage. Indeed, I think I need not confine my congraluiaiions to those only, but extend them also to the citizens of our town, as | they are all moi^ less interested in having every means of reaching it, rendered as commodious and easy as possible. The Bridge was passed for the first time since its reconstruction on Friday of last week, hardly six months from the day it was commenced; the work, indeed, has been carried on with a rapidity unexampled in this community, when laborers and materials arc both with great difficulty obtained; and the work is pronounced by every one capable of judging, to be done in a most substantial and workmanlike manner. It is but common justice to say, while we are on this susject, that the Bridge Company are mainly indebted for the expedition with which the work has been accomplished, and the substantial apnearanee of thn Rtrurtnro #??!.? w? %w ?iav 1IKIIII 111^ energy, zeal and ability of Capt. Charles Vanderford, of Chcraw, tbe gentleman under whose superinleudancu the work has been done. Long may the community enjoy the comfort and convenience of crossing the Camden Bridge, and long may the Stockholders reap an ample reward for their enterprize. W. Poetry. FOR THE COURIER. TO MISS A.
