Dear TribuHe-I reached the regiment
on Thursday, after p long and tedious
ride of four days, and will endeavor to
write you as good a letter as possible, Civ

Railway through Canada
Leaving the Point on Saturday morn

remained until Monday morning Here
| | met John Carson and a lew others we'll
known at our inland home as the gay
and festive of many a time-"pretty well
! bow-come. you-so" After pleasant time
at Freeport, Monday morning found me
again on the train, bound for Chicago
On this train | met Frank Sudduth and
/ Geo. W. Cobb. Frank was on his way to
Albany, so we concluded to take a trip
together ria Niagara Falls Taking the
Michigan Central at Chicago, and secur-
ing berth in a 5 coping car, we were
soon happily situated and riding at the
rate Of thirty miles an hour As our ride
from Chicago to Detroit was in the night
bad no opportunity Of observing the
country. Il my former trips East had
taken the Pittsburg and Fort WAYNE
route, but this time, for the novelty Of the
thing, and having company, | determined
on new and to me a strange route We
arri ed at Detroit at a m on Tuesday,
and Immediately crossed the Detroit river
into Canada, We had made the acouain5-
ance Of a fellow passenger on our way,
who very readily took to our style" aud
he having often passed over the route
through canada, We were posted on ali
the grand sights worthy to he seen. As
a matter Of course we observed all that
was passing around us On our ride
through Canada | was surprised to see
the country so sparseIy settled vet it is
very romantic, Astounding in hills and
dales. rocks and precpices, and murmur
ing, rushing streams
At Toronto for the first time esnied 2
