Fertile Alaska.

The nature of the whole land in
Alaska can be roughly divided into three
conditions: Snow and ice fields bury the
coast range and choke up every hollow;
to the immediate north the valleys
are rocky and barren, but the vast in
terror beyond is richly clothed in luxuri-
ant vegetation. Scientific authorities
theoretically mapped out giant ice fields
as spreading over the entire land from
the Fairweather and Mount st. Elias
ranges north almost to the valley of the
Yukon.
Colossal heights mantled in never
melting SHOWS tower thousands of feet
In the air, but within the shadow of
these mighty uplands, in the sheltered
hollows beneath, lie immense valleys
caTpeted in richest grasses and gracefully
tinted with wild flowers. Here in the
summer genial cline is found, where
Strawberries and other wild fruits ripen
in luxuriance, where there are az
months Of summer and ~ of winter.
In June and July the sun is lost below
the horizon only for few hours, and
the temperature, though chilly at night,
has an average of 50 dogs. in the day.

OCBAN PLEASURES ON CLYDE STEAMSHIP
LINE.-The steamship Iroquois OF the CLYDE
line tied up at her dock yesterday morning
at eleven O'Clock and landed large com.
pany of passengers. There were fifty left
at Charleston, making the list one OF the
largest carried this year. This trip of the
Iroquois deserves special notice for several
reasons. IL was one of the smoothest pas
sages ever made between New York and
Jacksonville, and that at the time of the
year usually considered tho stormiest All
the way down the vessel ran as smoothly
as Hudson river steamer, with fair wind
and on no sea. Not passenger was seasick,
ana many spent most of the time on the
decks. The large number of young people
on board knocked monotony pretty effec-
tually in the head. The Clyde line has won
by hard work the success which insures
crowded ships the year round, and it is the
memory of such voyages az this that brings
its patrons back winter after winter. Tie
stewards Of the line keep up their reputs-
ton for the finest cuisine in the coastwise
trade and the completeness of accommodate
tions and exceptional ability and geniality
OF the officers have helped to make up this
great popularity. For particulars inquire of
