A GREAT SIBERIAN RIVER.

The Amour at Khabaroffsk, though
we were more than 500 miles from it's
mouth, was fully mile and half
wide and flowed in a strong, full cur
rent, which fact we realized for many
a day thereafter as we made our slow
and toilsome way against it. The
Amour is one of the few greatest riv-
ers of the world. In length it is equaled
by no river in Europe, and surpassed
only by the Yang-tse-K iang and Yeni-
sci in Asia, by the Nile and Congo in
Africa, and by the Amazon and Mac
kenzie in America, though if we reck
on the Mississippi and Missouri as one
river it is longer than any of them ex-
cept the Nile. It's water is somewhat
muddy at Vladivostoek, but nothing
like the consistency of the Mississippi
at st. Louis. 1t cannot be said to be
10th food and drink AS we ascend
its swift current it constantly grows
clearer, until a thousand miles further
up it is about the color of white wine
and is sweet and wholesome to the
taste.
It's shores are still in their virgin
greenery. For hundreds of miles at a
time one sees not a cultivated field,
though doubtless some such titled land
lies back from the river and out of
sight. Great wood piles for the use of
the frequent river steamers are the
most common objects that show the
hand of man, but even these are often
in desperately lonely spots SO that one
can scarcely believe that they were
ever visited by human beings. And yet
all this immense river basin of half a
million square miles is apparently fer
tile and habitable, and when we saw
I it it was glowing in rich and brilliant
verdure. Surely the world is not yet
loverpeopled while such lordly domain
/ is waiting for the pillow and the reaper

THE BEDELL HOMESTEAD AND THE OLD
HOUSE OF ADMIRAL sLoAT, on
STATEN ISLAND. PRACTI-
CALLY DESTROYED.

Residents of Staten Island who take inter
est in things historical are much worried over
the recent destruction of two houses which they
hoped would be preserved. The Bedell home
stead, near Green Ridge. of the oldest and
most historic houses the island. has been
practically demolished within the last month
i has been a picturesque ruin for some time
having been partially burned for frewood by
negro family who occupied it. The quaint old
home Of Admiral Sloat. who commanded the
Pacific Squadron in the war with Mexico is
being torn down to make room for new build
ing. The destruction OF these landmarks is ex-
pected TO call forth renewed activity on the
part of the Staten Island Historical Commits
sion. appointed some time ago for the purpose Of
acquiring the Bentley Manor House. near Tot
tenviile. which was Lord Howe's headquarters
al the time of the Revolution.
The Bedell house built nearly two hun
dred years ago by A Huguenot refugee VINO
lived in it for many years before it came into
the Bedell family. Long before the Revolution
an important peace conference between the In
dian tribes of the island and their rivals on
the New-Jersey coast was held there. The
Staten Island chiefs quartered In the
house. while che others had TO content them
selves with beds in the woods. The peace was
finally arranged. and Cor many years the In
dians made annual pilgrimages to the spot to
renew the treaty. The settlers took a great
interest in these ratification meetings The
house was the scene Of several fierce encounters

Colonial troops After the Battle Of Richmond
