ALAsKA.-On the I'd of December
we had a remarkably high tide,
which, besides doing other damage
here, carried away 100 feet of the
newly constructed stockadss, near
the Post Quartermaster's storehouse.
Vegetables have done remarkably
well here this year--turnips, cabba-
ges and potatoes especially. DR..
Dali, in his work upon Alaska, states
that cabbages will not head at Sitka.
This is incorrect, for they do head
very well, and this years crop was a
good one. Potatoes have turned
out splendidly and are of fine favor,
and, Notwithstanding DR.. Dalrs as
sertion to the contrary grow to a
large size. Carrots and radishes
were excellent. Beans, peas, lettuce,
beets and satisfy have also been
raised, but beets and lettuce have a
tendency to run to seed, even when
quite young. Venison is plenty,
but the Indians manage to keep the
price of it up. Whales are some-
