Labrador.

One feature of the Labrador coast
strikes every observer-the absence of
human beings; and not only are they
not here, but the back country is bar
rem waste, given up to the wild animals
and probably never destined, from the
rigorous nature of its winters, to become
the permanent home of a white popula-
ton. The occasional visitor is hunter
or sealer. In some of the bays Esqui-
maux live permanently. There are sup
posed to be 1000 in all Labrador, but
they are fast dying off. At Battle har-
Dor there is town, and the place is a
famous shelter for the fishermen who
venture into this northern country. The
houses are all small and rude, and every
thing is given up to the fishing interest,
every available bit of ground being de-
voted to racks and stages for drying fish.
In the southeast portion of the place an
Episcopal church was consecrated about
thirty years ago, and had for its first
pastor a nephew of Wordsworth, the
poet. There is another church at Fox
harbor, and here the visitor from the
south finds a genuine Esquimau hamlet,
with its kayaks, igloes and ALL The
nearest mail station from here is Batteau
harbor, and from here the fisherman can
start in any direction and find all the
sport desirable. On Sandwich bay there
is mountain about 1, 500 feet high, from
which a fine view of the surrounding
country can be had. Two rivers, West
and Eagle, empty near here, that pro-
vide salmon that would make the Resti-
gouche country fisherman open their
eyes. The trout attain large size, and
sea trout are extremely plentiful.
AT the head of what the natives call
Natsbuctoke bay are the Narrows-a
body of water surrounded by high hilly
walls, forming a perfect gateway, dark,
gloomy and impressive. On the Mar
rows is the Hudson Bay company's post
of Rigolitte, and about $50 miles from
here is the famous port, known as North
west, where it is said the Cree nation,
that have been such terrible enemies to
the Esquimaux, first began to trade with
the whites. The Moravians deserve
credit for most of the missionary work
done here They have established a num-
Der of missions, converted nearly all the
natives, made them give up polygamy
and marry in Christian way. AS in
many other cases, however, this refining
process is dearly bought, since it seems
that from the time of the MoravianG the
natives have been gradually growing
less, and are in fair way of disappear
ing altogether. 1t is probably not just
to lay the deterioration of races to re-
Iigious advisers, but between the mis-
sionaries, the traders, students of eth
nology, and what not, native races have a
hard time. In Labrador the natives
gather about the missions in winter, and
are educated in the mechanical arts, and
carry on a regular business with the
Moravians, furs being the principal ar
ticle of trade. -New York Eoenin0 Post

AMERICAN MEATS.

The Secretary of State Tormulates a Docu-
ment Relative to Foreign Restrictions.
Washington, Jan. 30-Secretary Ere
iinghuysen has addressed to the presi-
dent communication, which he trans
mitted to the house of representatives,
in response to resolutions asking for
papers relating to the exclusion of Amer
ican hog products from foreign coun-
tries. He submits to tho president
copies of ell pertinent matter found Of
record in the department OF state and
gives in detail the history of the exclu-
sion of American meats from France and
Germany and other European countries.
In March, 1881, the secretary says, the
department OF state prosecuted an ex.
animation of the various phases OF the
pork industry in the western states.
which resulted IN establishing the fact of
the entire healthfulness of pork products.
The fact thus elected warranted the de-
partment in representing to foreign gev-
ernments that prejudicial Judgment
against the swine exports OF this coun.
try Was ex parte and unfounded. When

about to issue an order for the total ex

ial government to be informed of his in.
tention to appoint commission to ex-
anime the whole subject, and invited it
to send experts hither to act with the
commission, but the invitation was de-
clined. The president has since appoint
ed the commission then contemplated.
It is composed of a representative of the
New York chamber OF commerce, Prof.
Charles T. Chandler; representative of
the Chicago board of trade. E. w.
Blatchford; two members nominated by
the commissioner of agriculture, F. D.
Curtis, Of New York, and Prof. E. d.
Salmon, the whole under the chairman.
ship of the commissioner of agriculture.
In point OF scientific competence and
elevated impartiality the. formation OF
the commission peculiarly fits it for the
execution of it's responsible task.
To it should belong in a
great measure the shaping Of the policy
of this government towards the pork
poets. In view, therefore, of the promi-
nent part which the result reached by
the pork commission must necessarily
play in the further treatment of the ques.
tion by the executive or by congress, the
secretary feels it incumbent upon him to
advise that the president recommend
that congress abstain from any immedi.
ate legislative action until the report of
the commission 80 to be presented be be.

the question to be carefully, frankly and
honestly net is whether prepared meat

injurious to the public health. We be.

ducts OF this country are, as we believe

nations which put forth the DEGREES pro.

would annul those DEGREES. If, however.

at home and abroad, that our products
are free from disease, proof of which
might be established to demonstration

should by legislation discriminate
against the trade of this country,
rather than protect the health of their
people, it would then be the prov
ince of the executive to call the atten
tion of such nations to the provisions oi
the treaties, with the confident expecta
tion that those treaties would be respect
ed. 1t seems very plain that our policy
in any event should be to prove our meat
products wholesome. The absence o
trichinosls in this country, and particu
larly in our army and navy, where oul
meats are constantly used. goes far t.
demonstrate this. Measures, however
might be taken to ascertain to an abso
lutte certainty by such means as the com
mission of scientists would devise tina
