 A correspondent of a Valdez paper writing from Afognak says; White men induced to be married by Russian priests to native women, must sign contract to the effect that offspring of such marriages should be brought up in the beliefs of the Russian church. Children are baptized as soon as pos sible after birth. Baptism consists of dipping in the water, painting crosses with oil on several portions of the infant and after mumbling, passes, etc., all performed by the priests, cross is suspended from the child's neck; after which the poor, innocent lamb is admitted among flock of sheep and fed with the milk of super stition very effectively. Upon entering their habitations you will notice in a corner, under the ceiling, about half a dozen objects which appear like pict- ures, they are the holy "icons." Natives will not live in a house or barabara without having one or more icons; and sometimes while travelling carry one suspended from their neck. They be. lieye that icons will bring them good luck, protect them from evil spirits, enemies, misfortune and cures sick ness. Icons are of various dimensions are of different values. Some of them are executed creditably and are ex- amples of art. They are paintings rep pesenting likenesses of saints, devils, angels, spirits and mother and son of God. Icons iu common use are coarsely executed paintings on wood by class of artists in Russia called bogemaize (Godsmearers). Some of them are in- laid with silver and gold and decorated with nrecions stones representing con- siderable pecuniary value. The most valued and venerated icons are those which have appeared supernaturally, performing miracles. Those icons ex- ecuted by artists, who, while engaged, supplement their work with fasting and praying, and have holy myrrh (which is oozing perpetually from skulls of dead saints,) or particles of corpses of dead saints mixed with pigments are also very highly venerated.
