We have been running parallel to the tree-lined banks of the Bow River, and now, crossing its crystal waters, we find ourselves on a beautiful hill-girt plateau, in the centre of which stands the new city of Calgary, at the base of the Rocky Mountains, two thousand two hundred and sixty-two miles from Montreal and three thousand four hundred and sixteen feet above the ocean. Before us, and on either side, the mountains rise in varied forms and in endless change of aspect, as the lights and shad...ows play upon them. Behind us is the great sea of open prairie. Northward is the wooded district of Edmonton and the North Sas- katchewan, full of moose, elk, bear, and all manner of fur-bearing animals and winged game, and a most attractive agricultural country as well. Stretching away one hundred and fifty miles to the United States boundary southward, is the Ranch Country ; and both these districts have recently been made accessible by a railway extending northward from Calgary to Edmonton, and southward to Macleod.
