THE GREAT ALASKA RIVER.

Before the American Geographical
Society at Chickering Hall last evening
Lieutenant friedrich Schwatka lectured
on "Alaska and Exploration Alongs the
Yukon River; an account of the longest
Raft Journey in the World" Through
the center of Alaska, the lecturer said,
flows the mighty Yukon, stream so
grand that, if its head were at Salt Lake
City, it would, as crow flies, empty into
New York Harbor. 1t was discovered
in 1882 by adventures in the employ Of
the Russian Fur Company. His idea of
exploring the river on a raft, he said, was
laughed at by the whites and many of
the Indians. They said that he would
never be able to pass it through the miles
of lakes and boiling rapids. He never
theless determined to make the effort.
The lecturer next gave graphic descrip-
tion of the tedious and dangerous travel
over the frozen heights between Sitka
and the head of the Yukon. He describ-
ed the repairing ofthe raft at the latter
place the crew standing in the icy water
and surrounded and attacked by myriads
of mosquitoes. After passing lake,
which he called Lake Bennett, they met
with high waves and perfect hurricane
which made the raft work in the center
like an accordion. After leaving Lake
Marsh they encountered the rapids Of the
Grand Canon of the Yukon, where the
waves were from four to five feet in
height. Here the mosquitoes were un-
endurable. So numerous and bloodthirs-
ty were they that Esquimaux dogs were
killed By them under certain circumstan-
ces, and even the grizzly bear was conf
PEELED to succumb. He later on describ-
ed passing and naming three great rivers,
one of which he called DAILY, after the
President of the society. Applause.
The party also passed an immense stream
called the White river, so called from
the.white mud which is mixed with the
water. The explorers in few days more
reached Fort Yukon, from which point
the river had been explored by other
parties. The rapids which these explor-
ers had described, the lecturer said, PROV
ed to be the mildest rapids he ever saw.
After further most interesting description
of the river the lecturer closed by saying
that Alaska had great future with its
whale, salmon and seal fisheries it's iri-
mense cod banks, its vast grazing grounds
on the west and its large timber lands on
the east. The house was then darkened.
and he exhibited number of stereoplicon
views OF the river and surrounding
scenery.-Nelo York Herald, December

NATIVE LIFE IN ABYSSINIA.

The majority of houses have a second
story, at least sort of attic, under the
extlnguisher roof of thatch, trimming a
circular frame of dried mud and wood
resting on the angles of four Walls of mud
and stone, either in square, or the ground
plan taking the lines of Greek cross,
and the interior face is surrounded by
circular outer wall of the same material.
Within live the occupants, with their
cattle, fowls, dogs, cats and a Noah's ark
of insects, which the natives foster with
the greatest care by not touching soap
and by using very little water. The
excessive disregard to cleanliness is quite
mania with Abyssinians. It ssis not
from want of water. There is.plenty;
and the famous soap-tree, called indeed,
grows every where, the seeds of which,
when carefully dried in the sun may be
worked into good lather that is very
cleansing. An Ethiopian will tell you
without blush that he is necessarily
washed at birth, washes himself on his
marriage morn, and hopes to be washed
after death; that once every year he
dips himself in the river on the festival
of St. John, and every morning he wets
the end of his toga with the moisture
from his mouth and freshens up his eyes.
Whenever he feels hard and uncomfort-
able he will anoint himself with mutton
fat till head and body glisten in the sun.
