Keim's illustrated hand-bookWashington and its environs: a descriptive and historical hand-book to the capital of the United States of America . e E. At the footis the head of Bee-she-kee, The Builalo, a Cldppewa warriorfroni the sources of the Mississippi, from nature by F. Vin-centi, 1854; copied in bronze by Joseph Lassalle, 1858. Op-posite, over the first landing, is Westward Ho, a chromo-silica,by Emanuel Leutze, 18G2, $20,000. The best view is fromthe balustrade at the top of the staircase. The painting rep-resents an emigrant train crossing the Rocky Moimtains. Theligures are excellent, and the face of nature in those high al-titudes is faithfully portrayed. A guide to these wild regionsleads the way. The faces of tlie travel-w^orn emigrants beamwith hope. In the distant valley in the rear is an emigrantcamp. The snow-clad peaks and rugged i-ocks all appear intheir wild sublimity. Above are the words Westward theCourse of Enipire takes it way, and below is the GoldenGate, the entrance to the harbor of San Francisco. Tiicentire picture is surrounded by an appropriate border.
