y correspondent Of the Philadelphia

courses through the whole length Of The,

feet above the sen. Near the base of

of water called Mirror Lake, In which
the high ellis are reflected with such
wonderful distinctness that when ono.

the picture which il the substantial

visited this lake early in the morning.
in order to see the reelection when
the sun first rises above the summit of
the mountain. The atmosphere was
clear and cloudIcss; no breath of air
ripriet the surface Of the transparent
waters of the lake. No faircr scene was
ever presented 10y nature for the, nd
n'irntiOn of man than the sight Of these
perpendicular walls of granite, many
thousand feet high, and reflected In
the lake at their btse When the. sur,

water Tor its reflection, but their ex-
rcctatiOnS were rewarded ut first bv
disappointment. For some minutes the
sun pursued its course, and reflected
not upon the discounted and cxpt1tant
crowd below. Sogrc;,t was the refruc-
tive power OF the water that finally
when The sttn was first visible below it
had assembled some distance above the
summit overhead.
