H., to ascend the shaft of the main pinnacle. - The tnorniii2 was cl-ar and bright. Not a speck dimmed the blue etheiial vault, or intercept ed the vision in any direction. It was just such A.,v as should be chosen by visiters to ascend the mountain. Half the beauty and grandeur of the scene is lost in a less favorable day. At 25 minutes past 9, a. m..we commenced as cending the base of the mountain, at ao angle of a. ilpcrreps. nassin? throuffh a drnse forest of timber" consisting of white, black, red, and chest nut oaks, poplar chestnut, hickory walnut of a large size, and from 100 to 150 feet high. The ascent of the base is divided into 8 steps, (so called there) or platforms, each becoming steeoer as vou ascend. At the 5th platform, there is a place culled walnut cove ; where the soil is rich enough, to produce su to ou ousneis oi corn to the acre. The trees along, here are so numer ous, the whole view of the Mountain is ohstiocted, and here the wild locust is found, the pods of which are said to make excellent beer. By the time we reached the 7th platform, we were nearly tired down; and hero would natural ly be a resting place, for the grandeur of the scene now besius to develop itself. , The 8th and last step brought us to the foot of the pinnacle, and to what is called ' lamting rock.'. The circumstance which gave rise to this name was this : a lady in feeble health, in company with a party, attempted to ascend the mountain. When they reached this place, she fainted. On reviving, she insisted on the party continnirfo up, and leaving her until their return. -' Accordingly they did so, but after they bad been up the moun tain sometime they beheld the sick lady coming. The main pinnacle at this place lonks more like some vast got hie building of antiquity, than any thing I can compare it to. . , , At 4 minutes past 11 o'clocV, we arrived at the main pass of the big pinnacle. We now ascend by ladders, and platforms; the ladders, five in number, being generally 10 feet long. From the foot of the fii st ladder to the top of the fifth ladder being 85 feet perpendicular. At half past eleven we gained the main pinna cle, the highest point. Here we have a view commanding the sur rounding country for 200 miles, embracing the Sauratwon mountains, with their five lofty peaks. The grandeur and beauty ofthe scene js far be yond my powers of description ; and no one can have a correct idea of it without realizing it White rock, the nearest peak of" the Sauraton range, is 6 miles distant, Steel mountain is 9 naileV, Mnre's Nob, 16" miles; Cook' mountain 15 miles; Flat Shoal is 20 miles. At the foot of the Sauraton range runs Dan river. : ' : " At a distance of 50 to 60 miles, is seen Carra" way range of mountains, ' in Randolph connty. In another direction can be -seen the Shallow Ford on the Yadkin ; and although it 19 20 miles distant, il looks as though it were t the foot of the mountain. The ford is formed by an island in the middle ofthe river. To the southeast may be seen a white object the size of a water bucket, tttat cannot be distinguish ed with the eye; but by the aid of a glass, it can be seen to be a white house. . It is 25 miles dis tant .. Looking to the east, 50 plantations may be coun ted in one direction ; and to the Northwest they are so numerous it is difficult to count them. ' " Some houses at a distance of 2 miles look 80 near as to lead one tq believe he1 could throw a stone and strike them. Looming in the distance, hi s;h above all other mountains may be een th Peaks of Otter, in Vir ginia, distant lOOmiW. The Blue Ridre and in Alleghanies are plainly visible, and add greatly to uie tjrunueur ui wie scrne. Mount Airy, a email town, U seen 15 miles dis tant.

' Corn and wheojl could be raised up here, and apple and peach trees, would bear well, although 1800 feet high v ' Descending, we went around, the base of the. maio shaft It resembles a Vast citadel.. wtth bas tion after bastion ; recess after recess; fissure after fissure, on the most gigantic scale, and of the most stupendous neight The shaft is 633 yards roood.

The house is. large and would accommo date 30 or 40 persons., Some 400 yards from "the" house, is ' an excel lent mineral spring.
