The City of Columbia !s situated near the junction of the North Forks of the Kettle river with the main Kettle river, and is distant about 300 miles east of Yanoouver. The natural situation of the city for beauty Is not excelled in America. A verdure -elad and flower-bespangled rolling prairie, traversed by a river of bright, sparkling waier, fringed with forest trees and surrounded by mountains, fortfiing a charming combination of picturesquesness and grandeur The Columbia A Western railway, which was constructed by the Cana- itian Pacific Railway company, has its , station, freight warehouse and yards in the center of Columbia, and Che E! Vancouver, Victoria A Eastern Railway oom pany, has located its depot, freight sheds and yards along the east line of the corporation, thus giving the olty connections With two transcontinental lines. The Canadian Pacifie railway com- any has large interests in the city, avlng selected the site on account of the superior natural advantages as a rail way centre, The climate, taken all the year around/is the best in Canadn—part of the summer is rather hot and dry, but the rest of the year is enjoyable. Throughout the Kettle River valley there is an extent ef fertile agrioul- tural land, part Of which is now being cultivated. Apples, plums, pears, prunes, cherries and nil the small fruits grow abundantly. The valley surrounding Columbia, divided into small frnltand vegetable farms, will sustain a large population. Building material is plentiful in the district. Lumber can be procured at fair prices, and brick lime and stone of good quality can always be obtained when required. The mining'interests are of the first importance to this country, and will do much to build up Columbia. Large mineral lodes have beee discovered thronfrh the mountains adjacent to the city, and what were mere prospects a short time since are now large paying mines. Water is supplied tbe city, by pumping from a beautiful spring of exceptional purity, capable of supplying a city of 50,000 inhabitants. The Granby smelter and converter —the most modern and perfect plant of the kind in America—employing hundreds of mfen, Is contiguous to the city, Owing to the fine climate, the cen- , tral situation, the beautible environments, the bright prospects for future growth and prosperity, Columbia will be an educational centre, a city of homes, as well as a Wholesale distributing point; atid when finally allied and wedded to her sister sister, will be the best and largest city in the interior.
