THE LITTLE FALLS. These arc about three miles above Georgetown, and at the head of tide water. The great Poto mac is here so greatly contracted that a stone can be easily tossed from one shore to the other; the fall of water is about fifteen feet; the surrounding scenery is wild and exceedingly picturesque ; and the spot is particularly famous as a resort for the followers of the gentle art. The principal game fish caught here are the rock fish or striped basso, and the spot is sometimes visited by the anglers of places as remote as Baltimore and Charleston. The fame of the little falls has been somewhat increased of late years, by the fact that it was a favorite angling haunt of the Hon. Daniel Web ster, Sir John F. Crampton, the late British Minister, and the late Hon. George M. Bibb. TII E GREAT PALLS.
