Treaty NulIifed.
YOKOHAMA, July 12.-That in
consequence of Portugal having
withdrawn her Acting Minister and
Consul-General from Japan, sub
shutting a Merchant-Consul in
their place, the japanese Govern
~ment have decided to abolish ex-
Intentionally with the power.
Much correspondence has passed
between the respective Govern
ments on the subject, but the Eu-
ropean power refuses to alter the
present arrangements.
On July 18th, the Privy Council
met and recommended that the
the Ministry nullify the treaty,
which was sanctioned by the En-
peror.
The treaty was nullied in the
following words "We hereby
sanction the notification of the
clauses connected with Consular
jurisdiction in the treaty con-
tracted with the Portuguese Gov
eminent, and order it to be pro-
mulgated."
Japan and Corea.
The Commissioner Plenipoten-
tiary for Corea, who has been for
eight months past in Toxic, nego-
tiating revision of the Japanese
Corean trade regulations of the
18th year of Meiji, is meeting with
considerable opposition in official
quarters. The commissioner for
Corea, as everyone acquainted with
the subject knows, was sent with
full powers from the Corean Gov
eminent months ago to arrange
this revision.
Proposed Treaties.
The Kokkai states that the Gov
eminent of Nicaragua has proposed
to the Government to contract a
treaty of amity and commerce
with Japan. The treaty is on an
equal footing, and is even more
perfect than that contracted with
Mexico.
The draft of the extradition
treaty with Great Britain, which
has been submitted to the Privy
Council, was rejected by that body.
as there were many provisions in
it which were Instantaneous to
this country as compared with that
contracted with America, as well
as many provisions which are in
contradiction with the Code Of
Criminal Procedure.

- ALASKA"
An Entertaining Lecture and Exhibition
by Rev j. q. A. Henry.


An Entertaining Lecture ana Exhibition
by Rev j. q. A. Henry.
An interesting lecture ON Alaska" was
given before the Geographical Society of
the Pacific last night by Rev. j. Q. A.
Henry in UnioD-square Hail. Mr.. Henry
was an excursioniSt to that famous country
some two years ago, and aside from the
personal knowledge acquired of his subject
he secured large lot of magnificent stere-
opticon views that were exhibited to illus
trate the lecture.
The speaker believes that Alaska has
great future, greater than any one can pos
sibiy predict at present. Considering its
friaid character it is a country of wonder
1ul resources, and its limitiesS wealth Is
only waiting TO be claimed. 1t contains
o6l, NO square miles and S15.000,000 of tax
able property, yet no taxes are levied there.
There are less than II miles of railroad in
the entire domain, and the wagon roads are
all nearly impossible. Twenty one fee
simple titles have been granted, and conf
prise less than 100 acres. OF the 81 vol
canoes 10 are active. The mines are numer-
Gus. and many Of them fabulOusiy rich.
The natives are perhaps not the stOlid
creatures they appear. Long years of mis-
slonary work among them has amply demon
strated that they are susceptible of being
reclaimed almost completely from heathen-
OF civilization and culture. The speaker
thought it sad commentary upon this Gov
eminent that after II years Of its ownership
OF Alaska so few of its people should know
that there ever was such person as Wash
Ington or that there is such country as the
United States.
The peculiarities of the people and coun-
try were related in most interesting man
ner and grand account was given of ! IS
great glaciers. Alaskan scenery, he thinks,
has no equal on the face OF the earth for
Wild rugged grandeur. 1t is one prolonged
osemite from beginning to end.
Most OF tie missionary work among the
Aieuts is done by the Russians, and Russia
spends 100000 rubles annually to promote
the Greek Church among them. Nearly all
the Aleuts are members of that body.
1t seems almost incredible the wonderful
wealth that some of the Alaskan Islands
have yielded. just one Of them, only 10 by IL
miles in extent. has paid in sealskins fully
4 per cent on the purchase price of the Ter
rltory, and several of the rich mines have
yielded more than the purchase price.
There is much need, Mr.. Henry thinks,
OF reform IN the present state of civilization
there. The greatest curse the country
suffers from is the rapacity Of the trader.
Nothing is safe from him, and the natives,
who should have the first consideration and
protection Of the Government, have in fact
the leaStSnd suffer the most.
