THE AMAZON.

River and Its products.

River and Its products.
The Amazon rises in the little Peruvian
lake Of Lauricocha, Just below the limits OF
perpetual snow For 800 miles it flows swift
" through Il deep VALLEY. Then, turning
sharply eastward, it runs $500 miles across
the great equatorial plain. Two thousand
above its mouth its width is a mile and n
half, increasing to more than ten miles at the
head of the delta, where il divides, and after
running 400 miles presents a front of $50
miles upon the ocean. For great distance
it is bordcrcd by side channels or "bayOuS,' -
as they are called upon the Mississippi, nam
led by the Indians gdrdpeS, or dance paths.
From Santarcm, the principal town above
Para, one may paddle 1000 miles parallel to
the river without entering the stream For
20 degrees Of latitude every river that flows
down the eastern slope of the Andes is an at
fluent of the Amazon. 1t is as though all riv-
crs from Mexico to Oregon unitcr their waters
in the Mississippi. y half score of these tri.
butarics are larger-the Danube excepted
than any European rivers out OF Russia. The
volume of its waters is greater even than the
breadth of the river would indicate At Nau-
la, 1900 miles from its mouth, the depth is 40
feet, increasing rapidly as it approaches the
ocean. The largest ocean steamer could doubt
less steam 1000 miles.up the Amazon.
The vegetation of the valley is eXubcrant.
There is bewldering diversity of grand and
beautiful trees, a wild, unconquered growth
of vegetable giants, draped and testooncd by
creeping plants The moment you land upon
the shore you are confronted by solid wall
of vegetation, through which, If you wish to
proceed, you must hew your way with an AK
or a mdchtd. Palms, of which 30 varieties
are noted, constitute the majority " trees.
Then there are Cow trees $50 feet high,

mental woods there is no end. Foremost
among these is the mOird piHim0, or tortoise

or of any in the world. Enough Of this is
wasted every year 70 veneer all the dwellings
of the civilized world. For many years To

end Contrary to all that we may expect the
climate Of the Amazon valley is temperate
rather than tropical. 1t is more equal than
in any other region in the world. Year in
and year out it ranges from "A to s. degrees,
the fair mean being SO degrees.
