They have got things now SO fixed at
Niagara, on the American side, that the
visitor cannot get glimpse Of either fall
without paying at least twenty-five cents
for such a glimpse. They have made a
park Of the entire territory from the ferry
house to the suspension bridge, and
whoever would reach the bank OF the
river must pay at the gate. There is one
thing not yet done at the Falls, for the
not doing of which we wonder. They
have not yet rooted over the Falls. That
should be done Immediately or the first
thing these poor devils" know some
fellow will be going up in balloon, and
thus get view of the cataract. Boys
will be crawling through the fence, and
the only sure way is to close the show. =

AMONG THE MoUNTAINs,-By the kindness of
President Anderson of the Portland and
Ogdensburg Railroad the members of the Amer
lean Association for the advancement of
Science, were enabled to take an excursion to
the White Mountains yesterday morning. A
train of eleven cars left this city at a. M, ar
irving at Upper Bartlett a. 1890 a. m. The trip
was very pleasant one; rendered so by the fine
scenery along the route and by the courtesy of
the Ogdensburg officials At North Conway an
elegant observation car was attached to the
train, which gave opportunity for an excellent
view of the mountains which encompass the
upper valley of the Saco, a river which at that
point has shrunk to trunk brook The naked
brown Conway comes first in sight, then the
cone-like Kiarsage, or more properly peaquaket;
then the green Franconia range; and just peer
ing over their tops the White Mountains.
Arrived at Upper Bartlett the party sat down
to one of Webster's most substantial lunches,
furnished by the reception committee.
hunerer crowd was never seen, and it did most
ample Justice to the lunch. the visitors then
amused themselves by climbing I ountains, loll-
ing on the grass, &C. About sixty went up to
the Crawford and will return to this city to-day.
A few separated from the party at the Interval
Station. At 30 p m. the train left on the re-
turn trip reaching Portland in three hours. All
expressed themselves as delighted with the ex-
cursion.
