VIEW ON THE JUNIATA, NEAR ITS MOUTH. 



The accompanying view was taken on the banks of the 

 Juniata river, near its junction with the Susquehanna at Green's 

 Dam. It is here, a large and rather deep stream, and is 

 crossed, near its mouth, by a long bridge. The scenery here 

 is comparatively tame, but in the counties of Huntington and 

 Mifflin, through which the Juniata runs in its early and middle 

 course, the country is of a very different character. Indeed, 

 there may be obtained, in the immediate vicinity of this beau- 

 tiful river, some of the most picturesque views to be found in 

 the country.
