PASSAGE THROUGH THE ROCKY
MOUNTAINS,

The Journal uf IN exploring tour through
the Rocky mountains by the Rev. Samuel
Parker, gives the following curious account
of broad deie through these m ,untiins,
which affords a commodious and easy pas
sage from The country lying east Of this
great range of the territory on the east of
The Pacific. The existence If such pas
s1ge increases the importance fthe steps
in contemplation by our Government TO oc-
cnpy the territory on the Oregon.
"rhc passage through these mountains
is in valley, so gradual IN b. ascent and
descent that | should not hive known we
were passing them, had it not been as we
advanced the atmosphere grew gradually
cooler, and AZ length we found ihe perpet-
nil SHOWS upon our right hand and Ip m
oar lett elevated mny tho lsanl feet above
the level Of lhe sea. This valley was not
discovered until some wears sine.
"Mr. II INIT and his party, more than
twenty years ago, went near il but did not
find il, though in search of some favorable
passage. Il varies in width from five to
twenty miles; and following its course, the
dist nee through the moIntaius is about
eighty miles. or four days journey. Though
there are some elevations and depressions
in this valley, vel, comparaiiyely speaking,
it is level. There would be no difficulty in
the Wy Of Constructing rail rold rom
the Atlanuc to The Pacific; and probably
thu time may not he very far distant when
trips will be made across The continent, as
they have been made to Niagara Falls, to
see natures wonders"

THIS eminent statesman Is now the chief
