Did it strike you, Mr. Editor, when you were tracing so truthfully the pictures on the side of our beautiful mountain, what fine opportunities the declivities below some of our best houses presented for terraces and balustrades? There could be nothing made to the hand more attractive for the purpose. Pray insert the following ideal landscape, and let us see if some one of our wealthy men of taste will not attempt something like it. A flight of stone steps leading to a second terrace of double the width of the first, and laid out as an elaborate flower garden on a ground of turf, with fountains, statues, vases, and one or two highly wrought tables and seats of elegant patterns, would be most effective. Descending the steps you would face the finest views of the St. Lawrence, the tubular bridge, the distant hills and mountains, and all the charms of landscape here displayed with such a lavish hand. "Ah! Bellagiol how well I remember thee!"
