NOTES OF TRAVEL.
tFRoM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. j

We left Quebec on the morning Of the 21st July,
as per programme, amidst beautiful drizzle,
which afterwards turned into a decided pour of
watery fluid, SO that we were entirely surrounded
by water-waters above and waters below-waters
ever the earth and waters under the earth-waters
without and waters--I was going to say within,
but il was not quite all water twas little mixed.
However, that did not prevent large crowd of
worthy citizens from accompanying us on board of
the tender which was to convey us TO the steam
ship that lay out in the middle of the great st.
Lawrence river, all ready to weigh anchor and
plow her way the waters Of the great deep, their
object being, they stated, to see The last of u.s.
Comforting assurance, under the circumstances!
and from the very tender manner in which some OF
the adieus were made, one would almost be ir-
duced to believe that they were indeed seeing the
last of us. However, the tender took them back
in very tender mood, and have no doubt in a
very tender manner; and we were left to begin
our journey.
And now commenced the hustle and confusion
always attendant upon the starting of ship upon
long voyage. Baggage to be claimed and dis
| posed of-some to the state.room and some to the
hold; the rush to the dining saloon to secure
seats at the table the demand for paper and pen
ellis was great, and presently the tables are COW
cred with small square pieces of paper designating
your seat for the trip, unless as was the with
myself and friend. We had selected two very
comfortable ones in corner, with nice soft-cush-
| ioned seats and backs, when we were politely
asked to give them up to lady and her friend.
/ OF course nothing could be said by US, but there
was some tall thinking done, for we had to take q
i back seat and sit on stool of repentance during
/ the voyage. The most curiosity, combined with
some little anxiety Think felt on board by the
passenger, is to find ont as soon possible who is
/ to be his companion de yoyage-his fellow.room-
mate. Who he is. where he came FROM how he
i looks, old or young. and SO on. Mine was to have
been dashing young captain in her Majesty's
| service, and to whom had note of introduction.
had supposedly selected him from amongst the
i crowd several times, and visited the stateroom
j frequently, expecting to see him, and wishing at
the same time that he was not on board, as there
was no baggage but my own IN the room, which
was well iiled by it. Nothing like plenty Of sea-
i room in all seasons.
i Presently one of the walters came to me to iG-
quire about him. told him supposed he weuld
turn up shortly; because, said he, if he's not on
board we want hs BIRTH as there are two or three

Hurrah for the artrail-away let US roam,
Der the green.bosomed prairie, the antelopes
home;
seel the last sunbeam Jewels the tresses of night,
And the starisies of Heaven uncurtain their light.
You may sing Of blest Araby's still lotus bowers,
or lndia's balm groves and ltaly's flowers,
But give me my wilderness home in the West
SalI ranger I'll roam, DER the pralrles broad
breast
When yon bright yellow blossoms by acres unfold,
Bending light in the breezes like pillows of gold!
Inc silky muskete for our conehes is spread,
AS dewy and sweet as bridal-night bed!
In the live oaks deep shadows securely we 10y
On our pallets of flowers till the close of the day
We slept and we dreamed of our sweethearts at
home,
But the war.path is new, boys, away let US roam!
Prisoned close in his vessel, the waves dashing
high,
Oter the foam Of the ocean the rover may fy
But this billowy verdure, this blossomng sea-
Is the pride OF the Ranger, the field of the free
Ho! fresher the war-traill brave Rangers give
heed
Look well to your ritles-each man to his steed
Our rifles are primed and our coursers are fleet
Woel death to the savage this night we shall
meet!
They sing of the battle-the Indian yell! u... IT,.
AS last as our rifles red taShes they fell
Till prone the prairie their chieftain lies slan
| And afar they are flying DER mountain and plain
| Morn kisses the earth and red bushes the east
| Our steeds are aweary-halt, boys, to the feast
A tlowery clothed table kind nature has spread,
And the prairie has given our meat, drink and
bread.
All hail to the Prairie the Rangers green home!
And hurrah for the Rangers whereer they may
roam
The Indian shall feel and remember our power,
For Wen bleed for our country in dangers dark
hour.
Three cheers for SAM HOUSTON, our friend and
Chief!
We sigh Ger his faults but are honor his grief,
When from country and kindred fate doomed him
to roam,
And seek like the Ranger the wilds for home.
And the maideps of Texas the Ranger will bless
He'll guard them in danger-relieye in distress;
Their hands set the star our banner to blaze

The English writers are discussing the origin Of
Maeauay's figure of the " noble sayage,'' who, in
A. d. $780, is to sit on the broken arch Of London
bridge to sketch the ruins of St. Pauls. The Times,
in recent review of Lord Macaulay's misceane-
Gus writings, has been content to consider the New
zealander as the original property of our great
essayist Mr.. Ellis, the editor of the two volumes
recently published, has no doubt whatever about
Macaulays aboriginal invention, He made his first
bow to the public in the review of the .'Welling-
toniad y and Mitford's Greece,a published in
knights Quarterly Magazine in 1924. He cropped
up again in the article "Mill, in 1929. He was
again manifest in the famous passage anent Mr..
Austen's translation of Ranke's History of the
Popes. Forthwith somebody writes to the Times,
claiming the New zealander as the literary goods
and chattels of Percy Bysshe Shelley who in 1919,
and in his dedication of Peter Bell the Third to T.
Moore, speaks of transatlantic traveller Y who
is to weigh everything in the scales of new
system of criticism and is to visit London when
that metropolis shall be habitation of bitternsa
and the piers of Waterloo bridge g" the nuclei Of
isets, reeds and osers." Another writer thinks
that a prior claim might be put in for at least q
dozen writers more. " We have not our Folney at
hand, but have shrewd suspicion that we could
turn up passage parallel to Maeaulay in the
Ruins Of Empires and certainly the New zealander
offers many points of resemblance to q certain
Huron in the 1ngenu of NJ. de Voltaire.n

of false gods, and Immediately, and before it

storm that is now lowering over us, and pro-
misses to destroy our commercial prosperity, let
them commence at one Of the roots of the evil:
reform their sensation ministers, and exercise
towards our Southern brethren the spirit taught

meet the inhabitants of the South in that con-

discharged workmen in the North, as well as all
