Cape of Good Hope.
Cape Point, which terminates the
mighty headland known as the Cape O.
Good Hope, consists of towering pro
montory of sandstone, which rises
from the sea to an altitude OF S4C
feet. At the base of this stands a big
solitary column which is known "a
Vasco da Gama's pillar. The light
house which here Eliminates the
meeting place of the Atlantic and In
dian oceans is one of the most i'm

is visible from a distance of thirty'siA
miles. The cliff scenery is wild anc
sublime, the rocks are magnificent and
the far-stretching sea, with the herce
surf beating on the iron-bound coast
is impressive. In the water directly
beneath the cliff sharks are abundant
A traveller, describing the scene. says
that on the occasion OF his visit Sc
numerous were the evillooking mon
sters that the sight as he descended
the cliff was most unpleasant. A sill
