As Letated in my last communication, I was 80 fortunate as to meet with a party who had jnet revurned from a trip as far as the Sault Ste. Marie, et the foot of Lake Superior; and one of the num- ber, a gentleman with whom I was previously acquainted, favored me with the following interest- ing particulars relative to the occurrences on that occasion. Having taken the stage for Bradford at the foot of Lake Simeoe, and thence the Beaver steamer, Capt. Nanghton, to Barrie, they proceeded by enother stage to Penetanquishine, on Georgian Bey, & dietence of thirty-four miles. There is an exeelient read in this direction, upon which from fifteen to twenty-thousand dollars have been ex- pended ; but, as it is not yet completed, they take the old road. Penetanquishine was formerly a French fort, and at present 1s an English military poet, there being a commiesariat establishment there in charge of Conuniasery Gen. Lee, with a de- tachment of the Royal Canadian Rifles. This place eLounds with autiquities, and mounds erected by the eborigines of the country, in which are deposited | various warlike weapons.
