374 KANSAS CITY REVIEW OF SCIENCE. . 



the greatest interest in everything they saw, wandered from the sally-port to the 

 King's Bastion whence they gazed in admiration on the magnificent view obtain- 

 able from that lofty point, and having feasted their eyes on a panorama of coun- 

 try unsurpassed in this country, visited in turn the different points of interest 

 within its walls. 



Laval University was the next point to which the visitors were conducted. 

 Here they were most courteously received by the Rector, the Rev. Mr. Hamel. 

 Guided by that gentleman. Dr. T. Sterry Hunt, and still by Mayor Langelier, who 

 is a distinguished graduate of the University, and holds the professorship of Civil 

 and Public Law, the party inspected the class-rooms and museum and picture 

 gallery. Leaving the quiet of this abode of learning, to which the busy hum of 

 the wharves, the next destination of the visitors, presented a strong contrast, the 

 steamer Canada was again reached. 



At one o'clock the steamer started for an excursion around the harbor, visit- 

 ing St. Romauld, the graving dock at St. Joseph de Levis, the Falls of Montmo- 

 renci and the new harbor improvements at the mouth of the St. Charles. Lunch 

 was next in order. The bill of fare was somewhat a curiosity in its way, and 

 copies were eagerly sought for as souvenirs. We subjoin it for the benefit of 

 those who failed to obtam it on board. The compiler, we are informed, was a 

 gentleman named Bazerque :
