The splendid seaport, on the acquisi- tion of which Austria had set her heart, impresses every visitor with a sense of a peculiar nobility with which it is invested by its aspect, situation, and history. Stately and beautiful is the approach to it from the sea as one sails up the fifty-mile broad Gulf of Salonica; on the right the undulating land of Cassandra, with grassy, tree-studded shores, and windmills on the skyline testifying to the productive- ness of the fields beyond; on the left the ...mountain ranges of Thessaly; with peaks whose names are known to every school-boy — Pelion to the south, then Ossa, and, near the head of the Gulf, a noble mountain mass towering over the lesser heights, with snowy summits ten thousand feet above the 97 TURKEY sea, Mount Olympus itself, the abode of the old gods. From the busy quay of Salonica one looks across the blue water at the snows of Olympus and a wonder- ful far panorama of hills and dales of classic Greece; and Salonica itself is a fair city to look upon from the sea, with its gleaming white houses and minarets, and dark groves of cypress sloping up to the ancient castle and fortifications.
