 Schoodic Point meets the ocean and marks the. eastern side of Frenchman's bay; Winter Harbor, about six miles north. Petit Menan, four miles of the coast and near ten miles east of said point. Steaming sufficiently near the mainland we can see the prevailing characteristics of rugged, rocky shores, spruce trees and rising, retreating lands, although after passing Schoodic Mt, one does not see any more such elevations near the coast until you get up past St. Andrews in New Brunswick The old Captain James Clement, who used in his younger days to go on the Newfoundland banks codfsh- ing, told me there were no more such mountainous elevations after leaving Mt.
 Desert, until Newfoundland, where are
 more, and know did not see any on my
 trip, unless very far inland.
 We see Menan lighthouse afar because it
 is so high, and as the group of buildings about it come in plainer sight an interest ing pencil outline is made for future use by me. Looking back to Mt. Desert, fiji. teen miles westward, pleasing out line of the mountains is taken as g whole. It assumes the shape of broad low pyramid, of which Greene Mount if

AT DEEDS HEIGHTS.

The State Temperance Picnic Yester-
 day-A Number of Addresses-Dr.
 Brooks to Speak Here.
 Several hundred people picnicked at Obed's Heights (saybrook) yesterday, and in the course of the day listened to ad- dresses by Mrs. Forbes, state president of the W. 0. T. U., Editor Lincoln of the Home, George P. Rogers and George Mar shall of New London, President Dudley of the Guilford Junior club, all in theinterest of prohibition politics. In the afternoon the main attraction was Dr. Brooks of Missouri, who ran on the ticket with Fisk. The reverend gentleman charged that the liquor party elected Harrison, as four years before it elected Cleveland. He said that judges all over the Union needed backbone to enforce the full execution of such oppressive laws as existed. ''I staid in the Democratic party as long as it was possible for me to stand their methods. Get rid of your Brices and you Quays."
 The speaker introduced several stories in illustration, and argued strongly for the annihilation of the saloon.
 He will fill the pulpit of the Davenport church next Sunday morning and give temperance address at the same place at 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

While beyond Great Head to north and west, Newport Mt, 1000 feet high, very rock-rugged and precipitous towards the sea with the rocky coast line below picturesque to degree unsurpassed, make that part of the trip to Bar Harbor by water indispensable to anyone who wishes to see Mt. Desert. Do not go by rail: or at least take that view by the steamer from Bar Harbor to South west harbor and return, going up past it gives the most striking view.
 Somewhere beyond Great Head one pass es Schooner Head, Anemone Cave and Spouting Horn. The Horn spouts only when heavy sea is on. l can tell about Anemone Cave, although did not visit it nor walk through it at low tide. The Sea Anemonies therein give it that name. Those can be told about elsewhere from personal observation. We were on our way to Egg Rock lighthouse, somewhere near these scenes, in Frenchman's bay, and had not been long in reaching it. I did not 20 ashore. The boat is lowered from her davits. The seamen in; Ar. Green generally with them; the inspector goes through his duties 1n twenty minutes or SO, and all are soon aboard again. Egg Rock and lighthouse are rather pictur- esque. But it is too early in the day for me to make a sketch. Now we steam across Frenchman's bay to Winter Harbor and as we go breakfast is announced to me, which I take with the inspector in the quarter-deck cabin. It is good breakfast and much appreciated, after which I am more wide awake than ever and in better condition to enjoy things thoroughly, for Dennis has supplied our wants from the stewards room to perfection; Every, the utmost enjoyment in these scenes so novel to a landsman but so continuous to our ship folks, they have not the same chance to enjoy them from the constitution of the human mind.
 Now we have arrived at Winter Harbor, and go ashore with the captain, and up into the lighthouse.
