Advantages of orRus.ian America.

The Boston Commercial Bulletin SAYS:
1t Is a nice country. 1t has always been
celebrated for its furs: a well known agri-
culturalist asserts that FIR trees may be
seen growing in the open plains in the
summer months.
The fisheries cannot be too highly ap-
preciated; indeed, Secretary Seward made
"a pretty kettle of fish" in buying the
territory. There are some species of fish
that have not been mentioned-the
snow-s-meIt there in summer, and the
species of suckers" that will soon mani
fest their presence, now that the United
States has its lines round the coast.
The election returns will always come
in promptly, the inhabitants live so near
TO one of the poles.
The climate is delightfully."- mild, for
IL is reported that the Governor and his
staff wears-s-nO(w) shoes in traversing the
territory.
Since the ratification of the treaty,
stoves have gone up; and, as it was re-
ported that hardware generally would
become good property, many politicians
have had hopes of their consciences,
which are noted for hard wear.
II is thought that a standing army will
have 10 be maintained there, as the Rus
slams report staying among the natives
all the year round. The army will be
uniformed in frieze.
Esq. Maux. Justice of the Peace in
some of the extreme upper counties, has
petitioned for them to be set off as a new
State, to be entitled L. S. place of the
seal.
An investigating committee from Con-
gress i'll start imLpediately TO ascertain
if il is the place of the green seal, as it
reported that water is so scarce the
people hud TdiH-denF there.
Notwithstanding but few heated argu-
ments among the people, great GOODNESS
often prevails in the country between
friends. the principal point of difference
being the freezing point.
Travellers represent the past season in
the Territory as very gay the principal
balls of the season, snow-balls, were a
round of enjoyment to the projectors, and
the acknowledged hits of the season by
those who came in contact with them.
The upper provinces play their cards
well, and "old sledge" is popular.
The great seal of the Territory will be
furnished at any time by the inhabitants
who have seals enough of all sizes for
any purposes.

BYRON'S MAID OF ATHENS-In speak
ing of Athens, perhaps l ought not to
omit the Maid of Athens, immortalized
by Byron-now Mrs. Black, of the Pie
rieus. The maiden name of this lady
was Theresa Maria. She was one of
three sisters, all of whom were great
beauties in their day. One of them is
the wife of Mr.. Pituky, the well known
Superintendent of Antiquities at Athens
The third, l believe, is not living. Lord
Byron's lines were written in 1S10-forty
years ago; and forty years make a CON
siderable difference in the appearance of
both man and woman; so that the lam
guage of the noble poet cannot be ex-
pected to apply in all respects TO the
present day. 1t is common thing for
travellers in Greece to call on Mrs. Black
with no other introduction than Zoe RlOU
Sas OqdpO. Not thinking this accidental
celebrity any ground for so impertinent
n proceeding, it was a long time before |
had the pleasure of meeting the lady, as
she lives in Piereus, and now seldom
makes her appearance in Athens. But
/ was invited one evening to take tea
and pass the night at the house of a
friend in Pier5eus. 1 found, on arriving
there, that the family ofMr. Black were
expected and no other guests They
soon came in-Mr. and Mrs. Black and
their daughter, a young lady of eight
cen or twenty years, and | had the felic-
ity of sitting the whole evening on a sofa
between the old Maid of Athens and the
young Maid of Athens highly poet
ical situation, as it seemed to me, with
the beauty of the past on one hand and
the beauty of the present on the other.
Certainly Mrs. Black shows traces of the
loveliness which inspired the muse of
Byron and if she did not, the magnifi-
cent beauty of the daughter is sufficient
and most satisfactory demonstration that
it once existed in the mother. Let me
add that Mrs. Black is an excellent
housekeeper, her house being one of the
best ordered, in all Greece. But if there
is one thing in which she surpasses the
rest of her sex, it is the art of picking
olives. The first time l tasted one of
her olives at the house of a friend, l
could not restrain an exclamation of sur
prise at their delicious flavor. Those
olives, responded my entertainer, "were
picked by the fair hands of the Maid of
Athens" A day or two afterwards
received jar of the fruit from the maid
OF Athens, which l kept as a precious
memorial, with fragment of the Par
thenon and a cane from the olive grove
