the EVANCEL AND ALASKA MAIL
SERVICE.

SEATTLE. w. r., Aug. 26, 1882.
EDITOR PosT-INrELLIaExcER:
! notice in the Oregonian of the 18th
the following dispatch FROM Port Town
send:
"The gospel ship Evangel, the new
mail boat, reached Sitka on the 18th.
four days behind time. After leaving
Wrangel she tried to make the trip to
Sitka BY doubling Cape Ormany, but
the frail little craft was not equal to the
task and had to turn back and take the
inside passage via Peril Straits. She
brought no mail to Sitka save q few
stray letters from Wrangel. Tho citi-
zens are very indignant at tho contract
ors for attempting to keep such miser-
able craft on the route. But a small
mail will leave Sitka today, as the peo-
pie are afraid to trust letters to her.
She Is not licensed to carry passengers.
and her present captain could not be in
duced to repeat the experience Of his
last trip up"
As master Of the steamer named, I
desire to make sundry and divers cor
rectiOns.
It is true that we reached Sitks be-
hind time, but the explanation can be
easily given. In tho FIRST place We were
detained twenty-fsur hours at Port
Townsend in our endeavors to obtain
the mails, which the Postmaster refused
TO deliver Us. During the entire voyage
North We encountered thick, fooQy,
southeast weather.
At 6itka the Postmistress, acting
under the instructions Of w. @. Morris,
refused to deliver Us the mails until We
had remained there forty-eight hours,
although by law We are entitled to re-
ceive them Immediately when We arrive
after schedule time.
We took the inside passage:by way Of
Peril Straits, ~ do all other steamers
during heavy weather.
As far as could learn, all of the citi-
FANS, both at SitkA and WranQel, were
pleased that the mail contract had been
awarded to q Puget SQUAD steamer.
Tho only exception was the Custom
House clique.
The Evangel IL entirely fitted for car
ryin9 the mails during the summer
months, and arrangements had been
made to provide another steamer dur
ing the remainder Of tho year.
! desire hare to tender my thanks to
Capt. Pearson, of tho U. 8. steamer
Wachuset, for his great kindness in
Offering to assist us in any way during
our trip, and although We did not need
his services, we nevertheless appreciated
his kindness. N. /. Rooms.

6rIKA, Aug. ia large party from
Tombstone, Arizona. has arrived at Ju-
neau. Ten of these have already gone
forward TO prospect the country at the
head waters of the Yukon. They went
in canoes and took fifteen months pro-
visions. Each man of the party had
from five to seven hundred dollars IN
cash. They are experienced men and
doubtless their researches will be graft
flying. 1t is their intention to Winter, If
possible, on the Mcmillan river, in the
vicinity of Fort Selkirk.
The prevalent disease has yielded to
the splendid weather. and Sitka ia now
a healthy place, bnt the Russians have
been fearfully scourged.
The Collector has fined the owners OF
the steamer Rose, owned by tho Rev.
John g. Brady and others, one thons-
and dollars for willful violation of the
steamboat laws, and has seized the Rose
and holds her in custody. Brady has
raised a missionary whine. but it will
do no good: the proof is positive and the
Offense too serious to be quietly passed
over.
The Northwest Trading Company g
feet are all busy at the fishing grounds.
Last reports indicate gratifying success,

END OF THE RAcE.-At ton minutes
past II O'Clock last evening tho 75-hour
walking match came to a termination,
resulting in a victory for Sheridan.
Lynch, after travelling 1874 miles, re-
tired at $50 yesterday afternoon. SOM
ers led Sheridan till near the end of
the race, but the young fellows powers
of endurance are greater than those of
his larger competitor. and he oonse-
quently won. At tho close of the race
the score showed Somers had wa liked
2l miles and Sheridan 221]<. Some
money changed hands over the result,
but Seattle is not very good town for
pedestrians, a. experience has fully de-
moustrated.

4 gentleman Who has .been making
some observations along the Skaeit river
furnishes % tho following notes from
that section:
At Mount Vernon a splendid wharf is
being built BY Messrs. Mcnamara,
Clothier d English and Baxter. The
pile driver Avalanche is doing the piling.
The wharf, when completed, will cost in
the neighborhood of $25W.
Both the Mount Vernon Hotel and
the Ruby House are doing q rushing
business, and are full every night.
The logging camps along the river
employ about four hundred men, and
are putting in some fine timber.
Last week a drunken row took place
between two Indians, resulting in the
death Of quarrelsOme Indian, one IF
those shot by the surveyors last year.
No arrests were made.
The Indians are now on their way to
the Sank country for a big pow-wow,
and trouble is feared, as they get all the
liquor they want.
The coal mine ON the Skagit ia sit
uated about thirty miles from tide wa
ter. A railroad will connect at that dis
TANGO with several desirable harbors,
either one of which present facilities
and inducements for the terminus of a
road. A road would have largo body
Of untouched timber to carry to tide
water or to mills that would be built at
the terminus. A fine agricultural cOun-
try would be opened by this road, which
is capable of supplying all the cereals,
fruits and other commodities that can
be grown on this northwest coast. The
coal and iron interests. however, are
bound to prove the paramount indus
tries of that region. A San. Francisco
company are now at work developing
the coal seams and iron lodes of the land
they control, which amounts to some
two thousand acres. There are five dis
tinct and we'll defined lodes of iron,
ranging from 30 to LEO feet in width,
aud can be traced the whole length Of
the land owned by the company. Ex-
perts pronounce it q very superior ore,
and the company have sent sufficient
ore to San Francisco to have a working
test made. What the result Of their
test was has not transpired, but that it
is satisfactory to the operators is evil
dent from their vigorous prosecution of
the work of exploration. The iron ia
OVERLAND by the coal, which is only a
quarter Of a mile from tie iron, and as
the coal seams and iron veins are paral-
lei, it only proves the fact of an impor-
tant and immensely valuable coal and
iron field Mt our doors, and one that
will ere long cause this portion of cur
territory to take a leading place in the
iron producing interests of the Nation.
The coal mine proper consists of two
and half sections of land, and through
the whole of it, in a continuous and un-
broken line, can be traced some ten or
twelve veins. varying from two to seven
feet III width, and the pitch Of the
veins, as well as their roofs and floors,
all combine to make it unquestionably
one of the cheapest mines to operate on
this coast. Here can be found in mex
haustible quantities the only coal that
