THE KLoNplKE ovERRATsD.

The additional accounts from the Klondike region furnished by Mir. John D. McGillivray, the correspond ent of the New York Herald, mining man of much experience, and who has shown himself to be a careful observer, fully support the views which the En gineeripg and Mining Journal had pre- viously expressed concerning the Klondike gold fields and their present and prospective value. MT. McGill. ivrsy fully confirms oar statements that the value of the diggings has been vastly overrated, and the excite ment of last summer and fall was quite unwsrranted. The country is already everpopulated; there are not claims enough in any portion of 1t which IS known to contain pay grave! to give newcomers any chance for fortune. The only effect of an additional influx of men into the country in the spring will be to provide an excessive amount of labor and to bring down its price to the bare cost of living. Many of those who are now there will come away as soon as it is possible for them to leave. and for the newcomers little or noth- ing remains except disappointment and suffering.
 While the region was first brought prominently into notice by the klon dike discoveries, it must be rsmem. bered that the existence of gold in the Yukon basin has long been known. For ten years past there have been prospectors in the country, and while a few of them have done we'll the great majority have united in the opinion that the climate. the barren nature of the region, and the extraordinary dilli- culties in the way of prospecting ren- dered it almost vnlueless as a mining country. In a region where gravel must pay S5 cubic yard in order to meet the cost of working, the prizes are necessarily extremely few.
 The statements of the correspond ents as well as those of the Alaska Trading company have also fully cor- robornted our estimates that the gold thus far brought out this year does not exceed S2, ,OOO, ,000 The wild estimates of 5000, 900 or SlO,0O0, 900 which were at first made, have been grad ually shrinking. How much will be obtained ill the future is, of course, q matter of pure conjecture. Doubtless the region will be worked for years to come, and considerable amount of gold obtained from if, but the labor and money expended will be out of all proportion to the return, and VIC have no hesitation in repeating our con clusion that far better opportunities fUr success and profit are offered in California, Colorado and our other mining states than in the Klondike. - Engineering and Mining Journal.

Goethe, Ink three or four other fore
