Washington. May ls.-The navy de-
partment has just received from Com
mander Todd of the Wilmington an in
teresting account OF the remarkable
voyage of an exploration up the Amazon
river made by that vessel. The WIZ
mington was instructed by the navy de-
partment to push on up the great river
and ascertain how far 1t was navigable.
Captain Todd reports that he ascended
10 Yuquitos, in Peru, which is about 2lc0
miles up the river. This voyage was
made, as he says. against an adverse
current averaging three knots for the
entire distance.

Negro with the Amazon. has heretofore
been regarded as the head Of navigation
for steam vessels. and from that fact has
grown 10 be a prosperous city OF 10000

sui and against the native pilots who as
sisted the Wilmington's commander to
make the voyage.
Captain Todd succeeded, notwith-
standing these obstacles, in ascending
the Amazon for 1000 miles above Manaos

could have steamed about 200 miles fur

navigation of the vast and hitherto un-
known interior of South America re-
vealed by Captain Todd's voyage will,
IL Is believed. be OF the greatest com
mercial Importance, and the navy de-
partment probably will take steps to see
that they are made known to the mari
time world. Unfortunately. Captain
Todd shows. the great Amazon. like the
Mississippi. is so changeable In Its
channels as not TO permit of successful
charting. so that expert pilots will al
ways be required.
The Wilmington left Manaos. Brazil,
April for the upper river and arrived at
Yquitos on April 13, running day and
night, stopping only twice first TO pro-
cure fresh meat for the ships company,
and again TO procure green food for the
living animals aboard, for the Whining
ton is collecting geological specimens for
the national museum here. The greatest
vigilance was required i'm the upper
river navigation, owing TO the logs and
drift brought down by the food waters.
and the commander and executive officer
took the night watches themselves. 1t
was soon found that the existing charts
were OF no value, whole islands disap-
pearing with the change OF a season.
Not less than seven fathoms OF water
was found on the way up from Manaos.
The upper river ran through a thickly
populated country. the character OF the
people changing from Portuguese and
Brazilian Indians TO Peruvians and
Peruvian Indians.
Commander Todd proposed 10 make
trip up the fsreat tributary. Rio Madeira,
before leaving the Amazon. There have
been few mild cases OF malaria among
the ships company, yielding rapidly to
treatment.
