Text Appearing Before Image:
A RICHELIEU STEAMER SHOOTING THE LACHINE RAPIDS—PRESENT. Montreal, the City of de Maisonneuve, the Hochelaga of the In-dian, the commercial metropolis of Canada to-day, nestles, or rather,once nestled, between the foot of majestic Mount Royal and the giantflood of the still more majestic St. Lawrence. It was so in daysgone past, but in our time the city has so expanded, its avenues haveso far stretched in all directions, save to the southward, its risingedifices have so usurped the surrounding country, that nestle is nolonger the expression ; we should say that it crowds its huge propor-tions in between river and mountain and bursts out towards the east
Text Appearing After Image:
Souvenir of Ca?iadian Sce?iery. 11 and west, running riot jnto the adjoining districts. It is from theMountain Park, upon the summit of Mount Royal, one of the grand-est parks on the continent, led up to by one of the most charmingdrives in the world, that the best coup doeil of the city and its sur-roundings is to be obtained. While awaiting the palace-like steamer,that will carry us forth, this evening, upon the waters of yondermighty flood, and bear us seaward to Quebec, let us, from the top ofthe mountain, pause and catch a glimpse of the panorama before us.
