While near Dawson he gathered some gold although not a fortune and has some claims which will yet likely yield well and where he intends to return after a few mouths rest and recuperation. He left Dawson on the 16th of June and arrived in Tor- ornto on the 4th of Jaly which is pretty fast travelling considering the great distance. He informs us thet, t is now possible to make the trip under the most favorable circumstances in ton days. The fare home cost him about '$200. He has several specimens of nuggets of his own digging,one fine one worth $40. speaking of the mining Taws and government of the country, he said the frequent charges and the orrogance of some of the local officers were the worst features and at times very annoying and irksome to the miners. rrr`A:r'on izroRT.
