N. N, Kobbins and,t(ie wrl;er 'Started 4 from Arthur's' Prairie on a short fishing, berry-picking, mountain-climbing trip. The principal object was to reach the summitof Mt. Hood and enjoy thegrand view it commands on a clear day. We left home before 6 o'oclock and struck camp, two miles below the snow line, late in the evening. Early next morning we started to make the ascent in company with a party heailel by Mr. Aschoff, the experienced guide and poHtinatter of Marmot, con sisting of Mr. J. Robinson and Bisters, Miss Berth and Miss Laura Robinson of South Bend, Ind., and a young man whose name I cannot recall. M . Rob inson nnd Mr. Robbins, Sr., had to stop at crater rock on account of difficulty in breathing the rarifted air, but the others reached the crest above the crater about 12 o'clock. The view was not as good as we had expected, owing to the ;moke, but I, for one, felt amply paid for the hard climb and the lassitude induced by the light atmosphere. No cities wero visible. Wo could only see the Oak Grove valley, the Bull Run lakes and the surrounding mountiin country Thu summit is a crest, I should think, about I H) yards long, run ning near East and West, just wl le enough to afford a rather insecure 'oot hold, in the center, above crater rock, where the ascent is made, but on each end theio is a nearly level area of per haps more than one-eighth of an acre. On the east end we found tlie book of the Ma.ttiniis in it copjier box, bearing the inscription, "Portland Alpine Club, 1800." Of course, we added our names t ) the long list. Some of the namei were familiar and most of them are from Portland. Our party commence 1 to descend about 2 o'oclock. Mr. Atchoff said ti e large crevasse between the summit and the crater, which is sometimes very dif ficult to pass, is better now than ever known, and that an old man by the name of Tom Paine, once ro lea mule up the hog back to the crevasne, which I should judge to be within 10.1 feet of the top. From crater rock rock tit re is lots of fun to be had rolling, skipping, slid ing and jumping down to the timber j line. X. X. Robbins forme I himself into a tolKKrgan with his bead up hill,! although he had no ryc'ometiir, he .i!ni.td ilisit lu alid u mile. Xllin W I oils ifrashopers an I other insects are lyJoand imbslded in the snow an I birds are seen devouring them.

The mountain really - RUSHES and Jores Chain Drive Mower bat a crater which emits a sulphureona s noke, sickening when you got a goo4 whiff of It. The craler, viewed from the mountain, appears to be about 20 or 3 feet long and 8 or 10 feet wide. They say the rocks are hot enough lo cook egga, and that a lock thrown into I ha crater, can be heard striking the side, until the sound becomes too faint ta reach the ear. Old Mt. Hood is grand, majestic an inspiring to any one with poetry or love of grandeur in their souls, and people iravel from distant parts to see it ; but althotign I was born in sight of it, this . was my first near a quaintance. It is hard for farmers to leave home during r the working season, but not nearly as -hard as they might imagine. ' Throw business cares aw ly (or a while and gut acquainted with mother nature. There are legions of blood-thirsty mosquitos in tho Umber below govern ment camp. N. N, Robbins pointed out the old emigrant road ovjr laurel hill, which ho crossed in '52 and which wa so steep that wagouj were let down with npes. L. II.
