ALBANY TO PRESIDIO. An Albany Boys Graphic Account of Ills Trip as a Soldier. As I tit here ia my tent at tha Presidio and look beck over tbe exdting ex per- teuces tbat have attended s trip like mine, it is hard to realise my position It alt seems like some strange dream from which I shall soon awake and find mjself bappy and contented in my old home. Bat I lelt it my daty to answer my country's call for volunteer; and eo on April 30th. 189!., I left my borne and loved ones for Portland. There Co. F. and Hospital Corjs of 2nd Regt. O. G. went into quarter with hundreds of other "boys in blue." assembled there from all parte of Oregon, and commenced soldier life in earnest. And quae a pleasant life too, for in Portland we bad beautiful weather and plenty to eat; (the latter quite an im portant item with boys.) Bat tbe pi ant experience came to a very adrapt end, however, on May 11, when three of tbe Corps boys, i Deluding myself, were mos tered into Co. C. and with tbe first Bat- taliioa were ordeted to Frisco.. Immed iately Unta began to go down and soon Camp McKlnley was decreased to half iu former eise. After being supplied with two boxes of bard tack, a can of corned beef, and one of beans rations for three day we, with the remainder of camp, marched throogh the street of Portland to let people have a farewell look etna. At 6 a..m a special train was boarded and we were soon speeding southward. Crowds met and cheered ns at every sta tion and each boy, whose home was not yet reached, was anxioa-ly canning tbe fields to note any familiar spot that would tell him be was nsaringhis home. Then when this excitement was over and the train was again speeding on iu way, we were a little sad for Derbace we have said goodbye for tbe last time. So with praters for tbe blessing of onr parent and protection of ooraelvee.we sought oar beds and werw tooo lost In dreams. Tbe booming canons and cheering crowds awoke os bright and early next morning and we learned that Roeetxtrg wrs reached. Here we saw the first of the bills and beanafnl scenery of Oregoo. After n few mutates stop we again sped along. from one aide of the car ia seen tbe solid wall of mounuia while from the op posite window, far, far below tbe track, may be seen a tiny stream. AtGleodale another engine joined ns to help poll the heavy load ot "boys ia bloc" tbrongh the Cow Creek canyon. J net w bile admiring the beautiful scenery we were somewhat surprised to find oarseive in ntter dark see, having dashed into s tnnnel 2800 feet long. I do not doubt iu length in tbe lean, for it see me 1 an age before we again saw tbe snahgbt of a perfect day. Tbe little abacka that dotted Use bill, and tbe Urge flame here and there con firmed the opinion that Southern Oregon I n mining country- finally Bogn River ia reached and n rousing cheer went up from 350 throats when peimie- sioa was gi two to take a bath in the river, and before the train bad hardly stopped there was a general fcramble tor the bank.

After fifteeen minute employed in the delightful pastime of bathing, we again boarded the train and looked for some thing new. With tbe coming ot hunger swiftly we sped into the city of Ashland, where we were given a genuine surprise. BaskeU of tempting lunch and large cans of coffee were fieelv given with many kind words and tender goodbyes. From here two monster engines take place of the one, bat even their greet strength can only Uke as sp the steep climb very slowly. The scenery here is very grand, and tbe construction 01 tne rait road a marvel. Far below ns we may see tbe track traverse bat ten min utes before: and equally far below that is the same track again winding among tbe Ull trees and suddenly disappearing in tbe face of tbe moantain. The loop too is wonderful Tbe end of the tunnel is almost directly above bot fifty feet hicrher than the entrance. Summit was reached at 1 o'clock ana in s snort time we naa croesea n . ... a .k S a.t boundary line and were m California. Tbe first great view on entering the sute I was that mtieetic ShasU.iU dome reach I in to the dark clouds. Which explained 1 very piaimj, u iun -" first tune tor week in California. Before we arrived at Dunsmoir, the thunders were raining about old Shasta's crown and the rain was falling in torrents. Here also we saw the first of tbe Sacra mento, a tiny stream tumbling among the rocks hundreds of feet balow us. At Siteons ws began the descent fiom the bills and after crossing many bridges running around the sharpest curves, and doubling on our course many times, we -foond ourselves at Shasta Springs, whose beautiful scenery and health giving wa ter ia a very desirable spot. Here we stopped and replenished our canteen from tbe tbe nrettv lountain eracioa uierw. By tbis time our trip was nearing iU close, and as we crossed tbe eighteen bridges tbat span toe oeautuui cacra mento between Shasta and the bay, we bear luUe moro than tbe roar ot I the stream beneath na. At Redding we retiaed and knew noth ing more until we crossed tbe bay at PorU Costa. After the disUnce of a few more miles.we Isftthe train and marched the aix miles to camn in a drinling rain, that was thoroughly "Oregon."
