Travels in Alaska.

ture on Alaska Al The Dalles last
week, Of which the Times says:
He started fer that country in
May, 1877, in one OF the Alaska Com
merciai company's steamers from Ma
naimo. After arriving he had a con-
siderable distance To travel on foot,
and the ground being extremely
marshy, the trip was very difficult.
The side hills are ckusen on account Of
solid footing. which made the route
long and tedious. Winter i chosen
As the best season for travelling. rs
then the lakes which ihtersect the
country are frazen over, and the
marshes are sufficiently snlid 10 he
walked over without danger.
The speaker related his experience
uf making Two winter trips over the
snow and Ice 20 visit Indians IN distant
parts. At one ,ume he penetrated as
far north - u be only twenty-five
miles distant fr,m the Arctic circle.
His description II the mode uf making
Journeys In sledges drawn by dogs was
very interesting. At times intense
cold was experienced, the mercury
going IS loT a. % degrees below zero.
At nigh; the place "f rest was in
''barabaras house dug IN the
ground 10y the natives If he was for
tunate enough to reach one: If not,
hole vas cut in the snow, fire built,
and there the weary hours were passed
until morning. IN one Of these tours
he was accompanied by Russian and
Canadian trader and four Indians. \
great MANY incidents which the speak
er related a. having occurred on these
j"urneyings Were decidedly humorous,
an6 the audience were unable 10 keep
sober cOuntenances.
The Yukon river, the Archbishop
considered as third on the continent.
He hal crossed il on the ice 600 miles
from It's mouth. and 1t was three miles
wided. The river becomes blocked IN
the latter part of October, and contin-
ues ~ until April. This river has
never been thoroughly explored, and
its length i not kneWn. Ii is a mag
nifcent sheet u water in the summer,
but presents a dreary aspect when
closed by ice gorges in winter.
To illustrate the costume in winter
in Alaska. His 'irace went behind the
scenes, and in a few moments came
out arrayed in a coat and hood of rein
deer skin. leggings and shoes Of seal
skin soles, and uppers Of deer skin.
he explained the manner IF wearing
these IN extreme cold weather, and
also stated that some Indirns were in
the habit II making their coats of sal
mon skin. which are impervlous To
water. Clothed IN this attire, he gave
the audience specimens Of some of the
songs of the native Alaskans, which
eviuce both melody and time. One,
especially, sung by the women, has a
very plaintive air. These were a de-
cided Improvement upon the gutteral
lugubriatiens indulged in by our In
dians.
Mr.. Seghers is very pleasant and
agreeable speaker, and all seemed to
take great interest in his descriptions.
He was frequently applauded, and
during some Of the ludicrous remln.
iscences the audience were cOnvulsed
with laughter. Ina short newspaper
article we can barely give a synopsis of
the lecture, which occupied two hours
and half, and in the above have but
attempted a brief outline Of some Of
the important parts.

The Splendor of Venus.

The increasing splendor Of Nenus
must attract the attention Of every
one who glances at the western sky
after smdown. She is fast approac5.-
ing the earth, and in a few weeks a
very slight magnifying power viii show
her as a beautiful crescent. Ii Is a
curious fact that the great bIilliancy
of Nenns has bafiled the astronomers
who have sought TO learn something
of the physical aspect or the planet
The most exqmsitely constructed tele-
scopes are unable Ia penetrate the
dazzling vail thrown around this
planet by the sunlight reflected from
its surface. This is the more disap-
pointing, because there are many rea-
sons for believing that venus is in 4
condition more nearly resembling that
of the earth than any other planet.
