MYSTERY OF THE LAKES Lake
Erie is only 60 or 20 feet deep; but
Lake Ontario, which is 500 feet deep,
is $50 feet below the tide level Of the
ocean, or as low as most parts of the
Gulf Of St. Lawrence; and the bottoms
of Lake Huron, Michigan, and Superb
or, although the surface is msch high
err, are all from their vast depths, on a
level with the bottom Of Ontario. Now
as the discharge through the River De-
trolt, after allowing for the probable
portion carried off by evaporation, does
not appear by any means equal to the
quantity Of water which the three up
per lakes receive, it has been conjectur
ed that subterranean river may rul
from Lake Superior, by the Huron, t.
Lake Up,ario. This conjecture is no
improbable, and accounts for the sin
gular fact that salmon and herring arr
caught IN all the lakes communicating
with the st Lawrence, but no others.
As the Falls of Niagara must have al
ways existed, it would puzzle the nat
uralist to say how these fish got intc
the upper lakes without some subterra-
mean river; moreover, any periodical OBJ
struction Of the river would fur uish a
not improbable solution OF the hux and
refux of the lakes.

A. S, McDlLL, who ran for Congress
in the eighth district, has made de
mand on the Secretary of State for a
new canvass of the votes. Certain
towns were omitted in making up the
count in Wood county, the votes Of
which, if canvassed, would give MIR.
McDill majority over Judge Cate.
Though the county 'canvassers might
or might not have been justified in re-
jectiDg the returns, there is no doubt
that MeDill received majority of the
votes cast in the district. We are glad
that he has commenced proceedings at
this time to settle this question, and
trust that he will push the question into
the Supreme Court at once, if new
canvass is denied. OF the facts we are
not sufficiently advised to be able to
form an opinion as to the legality Of
the returns, but there must be some
fatal defect in them, or that seat in Con-
gress will ultimately be given to Mr..
McDill.

DEAR BRoTHER-In answer to your
enquiries, would say: There is much
good land to be taken up rs homesteads,
but spectators keep ID some distance
from the settlements where school and
church privileges be had ut first.
Less valuable lands can be had close to
schools. A large portion ofthe territory
is peculiarly a stock country and owing
to our peculiarly mild winter climate. it
is, perhaps, more profitable than any
country Of equal healthfulness in the
United States; but with the opening Of
the Northern Pacific Railroad the profit
will be somewhat modified. Our eli
mate, compared with our latitude. is
very mild and cquable, owing to III
proximity to the Pacific Ocean and the
great air and ocean currents in connec-
ton with the same. The Southwest
