The idea of a national park is too stu pendous to have originated any where but in the great West where the inhabitants feel cramped with anything less than a square mile for a door yard, and have no mere idea of space than the angels have of time. The bill for the above object lately before Congress, was evidently drawn un in good faith and with the supposition that tne scneme would be favorably looked up on rjy our national legislature, 'ine details of the plan were gravely set forth.

with a not uninteresting description of At- I. 1 1 we lernwrj wuiuu it was proposed to de. vote to the purpose started. This territory, comprising ea area of 2,600 square miles equal in extent to the States of New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts is described as lying partly in Montana and partly in Wyoming Territory, and includes the head-waters of Madison river, together with the three large lakes, Heart, Madison and Yellowstone. The latter lias nearly in the centre the proposed park and among the snow peaks of the loftiest mountains, 7,500 feet above the level of the sea.

It ii twenty two miles long, with an average width of fifteen miles. The rim of the lake rises from two to four thousand feet above the surface, and in tne mountains in its vicinity are the tributaries of some of the larg est rivers on the continent, some of them finding their way to the gulf of Mexico, others into the Pacific through the Columbia rivtr, and one, by the Colorado, find ing an outlet in the Gulf of California. Col. Reynolds of the United States survey, in speaking of this section, says: "Penetrating to the lofty recesses where tnese springs arise, the explorer stands, as it were, astride of the grandest water shed in the world. A pebble dropped into one spring touches a water-nerve of the Pacific; a pebble east into another, touvbt a similar nerve iu the Atlantic ocean." Just south of the Yellowstone bes the geyser region, occupying huge plateau many miles in extent.

Two of these at the extremity of the plateau are called the Sentinel. Near these is a geyser, throwing water sixty feet high, and in its immediate vicinity anotner throwing a column of water one hundred and fifty feet bign, and fifteen feet in diame ntritMRcr'i Dlrtiirjr.
