Resources Of Alaska.

Instead of being worthless ter
ritory, as was believed by many,
Alaska is developing a numerous
variety of riches. When Califor-
MIA was inhabited almost wholly by
Spaniards, it was, like Alaska, an
unworbed mine of wealth. The
mineral treasures Of both coun-
tries were unknown and unsought.
They had little or no agriculture,
and were almost entirely in a state
of natural wildness, thinly peopled
and over-run by savage tribes
But when these territories passed
into the hands Of Americans, diff
ferent condition prevailed-thei
resources were brought to light
The streams OF California wer
found to contain gold in limitles
quantity. The mountains wer
discovered to be imbedded wit
precious ores to depths unfathon
able, and In inexhaustible masse

Chin.

A pointed or round chin indi-
Gates congenial love. A person
with such chin has beau ideal,
and will not be easily satisfied with
commonplace men or women.
The extended chin indicates
great desire to be loved--a hunger
and thirst for affection. When
very large in woman, she may over
step the bounds of etiquette and
make love to one that pleases her.
A narrow, square chin indicates
desire to love, and is more COM
mon among women.
The broad, square chin indicates
ardent love, with great steadiness
and permanence of affection.
The retreating chin is indicative
of the want of attachment, and but
little ardor in love.
The chin, in its length and
breath, indicates self-control, sell
will, resolution, decision, etc.
Carnivorous animals have theil
upper jaw projecting, while al
those of the gramnivorous natur'
have the lower jaw projecting.
In men with a projecting jaw
will be found very large destruc
tiveness, and love Of animal food
and when the lower jaw projects
then the love for vegetable food.

The soil was the richest in the
world, and adapted to every kind
of production.
And now Alaska, which has been
so long the target for contemptuous
darts by superficial writer's, is be-
ing demonstrated, by American en-
terprise, to be land endowed with
solid elements of prosperity. 1t
contains rich deposits of gold, sill
yer, copper, graphite, lead, iron,
sulphur and coal. Its streams are
filed with fish; salmon OF the
finest quality frequent its inlets
and rivers in millions; there are
halibut and Goldfish, and its coasts
are the favorite resorts for count
less seals. The mountains are
thickly covered with pine and ship
building timbers, and there are
most excellent prairie lands and
pasturage near the coast. The eli
mate is milder, less rigid in winter
and less rainy than Scotland
Everything points to it as future
wealth producing territory OF won
derful promise. In the hands o.
the Russians it would have re-
NAMED for ages the dreary, unpro
ductive, and unknown region i
was when we found it; but, as par
of the Republic of the United
State it will contribute much Il
our national power and wealth.

MY FLOWERS.

The wind In the chimney roareth loud
While nom each dark and murky cloud
The snow fakes fall, and glistening shroud
The earth.
The rose geranium's perfume
Pervades my lonely, quiet room,
How contrasts with its summer bloom
The snow.
Beneath It's glossy leaves arise
The modest violet's azure eyes,
That bring sweet thoughts Of sunny skies
So blue.
Beguiled by your sweet breath, my flowers,
. l seem again in fragrance bowers
Whirling away the dreamy hours
Once more.
/ stroll along, bat not alone,
MY Lulie's hand is in my own,
Again her soft and tender tone
o what aloud and fearful blast
MY pleasant rcverie rs past,
The snow is falling thick and fast
without.
Closed are my Lulie's eyes 30 bright,
Her rosy checks are marble white,
The wind sweeps DER her grave tonight.

Although the cold SHOWS round me creep,
A bit of summer still you keep
