 It was sundown as the Calif0r. nia steamed out of the harbor of Victoria. Instead of puttinr out to sea through the Straits of Juan de Luca, the steamer headed to to the northeast through the Haro Strait, winding in and out among thousand islands, until we en- tered the broader Georgia straits, and for three hundred miles our course lies between Vancour'S Is- land and the main land, then be- tween smaller islands and the mainland, so that trip of over a tho lsand miles is taken in sali water without even getting to sea, the entire voyage being but little different from river naviga- ton.

 The principal fur-bearing ami mals of Alaska are the fox, mar tin, mink, beaver. otter, lynx, black beaver and wolverine. There is also the coarser furs of raindeer, mountain sheep, goat, wolf, muskrat and ermine. The extent of the range and quality of the furs in that extensive northern region are conducive to a very valuable fur trade, in ad- ditiOn to which are the seal fur fisheries, that since 1871 have yielded to the government an in- come of S1,s91, O30. Besides the fisheries and furs are the valua- ble deposits of coal, copper, sul- phur, petroleum and amber, with gold and silver. The gold and silver, so far, have been found On- Iy in limited quantities.
 It is the great lumber region of the country. The forests of vel low cedar, white pine, hemlock and balSam fir, will supply the world when the valuable timber of Puget Sound is exhausted. It has the great mountain peak of the country-St. Elias, 19,50O feet high; and the great river of the world; the Yukon, one of the larg- est rivers of the world.
 The Yukon district, bordering on the Arctic Ocean, is remark able for one thing. From three to four feet below the surface there is subsoil of frozen earth from six to eight feet deep. This phenomenon is ascribed to the want of drainage, together with a covering of moss that shields the ground from the hot suns of the Arctic Summer, and yet, notwithstanding this subsoil, during the Summer months, there is & luXuriant growth of vegeta- tion. The great distinguishing feature of this district is the wonderful Yukon river, two thou sand miles long, navig able for steamers for one thousand five hundred miles. In some places on the lower Yukon one bank is invisible from the other. A thou sand miles above its mouth it is, in places, twenty miles wide. including the intervening islands It is one of the great rivers of the world, and upon it's upper waters, within the Arctic Circle, is Fort Yukon, post of the Hudson Bay Company. At this far distant post, where tidings from the out side world only reaches once g year, is a Scotch missionary. The British Church looks we'll after its own people.
 On Its banks live thousands who know neither it's outlet oI its source, and yet recognizing its greatness, proudly calling themselves the "Men of YukOn.'
