OLD -MINING IN BRITISH OOL1T tlirrious Speer. . loss Regarding Their Some of the Rieheet -De posir!s �iR`. th World. -- It may alniost be said that the Vetory of gold -raining there is the hirtory Columbia, Victoria, the caital was ma Hodson Bay post established in 1843, and Vancouver, Queen Charlotte's and the other islands, as well as the mainland, were of interest to only a few white men as parts of a great fur -trading field with a small Indian population. The first nugget of gold, was found at What is now called Gold Harbor, on the west coast of the Queen Charlotte Island by an Indian woman, in :1851. A part of it, weighing four or five ounces was taken by the Indians to Fort Simpson and sold. The Hudson Bay Company, which has done a little in every line of business in its day sent a brigantine to the spot, and found a quartz vein traceable eightyeet yielding a high percentage of gold. Blasting was begun, and the vessel was load- ed with ore : but she was Inst on the return voyage. An American vessel, ashore at Esquimanit, near Victoria, was purchased renamed the Recovery, and sent to trold Harbor with thirty miners, who worked the vein until the vessel wen loaded and sent to England. News of the mine travelled, and in another year a email fleet of vessels came up from. San Francisco ; but the sup- ply was seen to be very limited, and after $$20,000 in all had been taken out, the fiel3 was abandoned. Company's 1855 gold was found by a Hodson .$ay ipany's employe a;t Fort Colville, now in Washington State, near the boundary. Some Thompson River (B.C. ) Indiana`who went to Walla Walla spread a report there that gold, like that discovered at Col ill You will find that seven in ten among the more intelligent British Columhians con- clude these Indians to be of Japanese origin. The Japanese current is neighborly to the province, and it has drifted Japanese junks to these shores. When the first traders visited the neighborhood of the tnouth of the Columbia the found beeswax is the sand near the vestiges of a wreck, and it is said that one .wreck of a junk was met with, and 12,0120 pounds of this wax was found on her. Whalers are said to have frequently encoun- tered wrecked and drifting junks in the eastern Pacific, and a local legend has it that in 1834 remnants of a junk with three Japanese and a carpo of pottery were found on the coast south of Cape Flattery. Noth- ing less than all this should excuse even a rudderless ethnologist for so cruel a reflec- tion upon the Japanese, tor these Indians are so far from pretty that all who see them agree with Captain Butler, the traveller, who wrote that "if they are of the Mongo- lien type, the sooner the Mongolians change their type the better." The coast Indiana are splendid sailors, and their dugouts do not always come off second best in racing with the boats of white men. With a primitive yet ingeniously made tool, like an adze, in the construction of which a blade is tied fast to a bent handle of bone, these natives laboriously pick out the heart of a great cedar Iog, and shape its outer si,;es into the form of a boat. When the log is properly hollowed, they fill it with water, and then drop in stones which they have heated in a fire. Thus they steam the boat so that they may spread the sides and fit in the cross -bars which keep it strongand preserve its shape. These dugouts are to be found in the valley of the Thompson sometimes sixty feet long, and are used for .A party of Canadians and half-breeds yr whaling and long voyages in rough seas, They are capable of carrying tons of the salmon or oolachan or herring, of which these people, who live as their fathers did, catch sufficient in a few days for their main- tenance throughout a whole year. One gets an idea of the swarms of fish that infest those waters by the knowledge that before lets were used the herring and the oolachan, or eseelle-fish, were swept into these boats by a u .mplement formed by Mudding a ten - foot pole with spikes or nails. This was swe9 among the fish in the water, and the boats vrere speedily filled with the creatures tha; were impaled upon the spikes.

Once they sold the fish f lb' is ho and the peltry to the Hudson Bay Com- pany, and ate what parts or surplus they did not sell. Now they work in the canneries or fish for them in summer, and hunt, trap, or loaf the rest of the time. However, while they still fish and sell furs, and while some are yet as their fathers were, nearly all the coast Indians are semi -civilized. They have at least the white man's clothes and hymns be sustained. By the end of the year out of nearly 30,000 ad- venturers only a tenth, part remained. Those who did stay worked the river bars a the lower Fraser until in five mentbs they had shipped from Victoria more than half a million dollars' worth of gold. From a historical point of view it is a peculiar co- incidence that in 1859, when the attention of the world was thus first attracted to,this an , ices.

THE BRAVE JACK TAB. A 'Woman Crosses the Pamir. A white woman crossed the Pamir in cen- tral Asia for the first time last summer. This plateau is distinguished as being the loftiest in the world. It hes from 14,000 to 16,000 feet above the sea. Its surface is cut up by mountains rising to a greater height and covered with snow and glaciers. So in- hospitable a region exists nowhere in the same latitude. Marco Polo was the first to cross the Pamir, and be complains that owing to the rarity of the air, it was im- possible to kindle enough of a blaze to cook his food. The region has been regarded as offering great difficulties even for the hardi- est of travellers, but Mr. Littledale and his wife, tourists in search of big and rare game, crossed it, nothing daunted by the stories of the hardships they would meet. Crofound it hamidsummer the plateau in half covered with last witer's snow and ice. They were greatly impressed by the that emee tEws of theirbgazeacevery herew.peaks Tra- vellers have always complained of the high winds that prevail on the Pamir. Mr. and Mrs. Liteledale were often compelled to drive their tent pegs in very deep and place heavy stones on the pegs to keep the wind from blowing the tents down: In places they could find ab- solutely no fuel, and they had to Barry firewood to cook their meals- They started with fifteen men in their caravan, but before they had travelled fairly across the Pamir eight of them had deserted on account of the hardships of the iourney, taking refuge in the Chinese settlements to the eastward. Some days their horses were continually breaking through the snow crest, and that made progress very difficult, They descended from the Pamir to the plains of the Upper Indus, where the people have very rarely seen white people While passing through that country Mrs. Little - dale established a great reputation as a physician. A sick man hadcometo hecto_ be healed. Shethou advertised pills world please the man and at the same time do him no harm, so she gave him a couple. The effect was marvel- lous, and the fame of the cure spread through the country. After that her tent 1 was besieged by poor people who were ann.= ions to test the carried with her. !'

Risking His Lite to Bury the Corpse of an Enemy. After the repulse of one of the furious as.` saults at Acre, says a writer in Good Words, the dead body of a French officer was left lying in a promnient position between the walls and the besieger's : trenches. The body lay there for a day or two and attract- ed much attention. It was spoken about on board the Tigre, which lay off Acre; and the matter made an impression difficult to ac- count ccount fur on the simple superstitious mind of Kelly. Only the very smartest men hall been sent ashore to assist in the defense, and Kelly was not among these. But one da v he begged `for and obtained leave to go nil shore. As soon as he entered the town ht. procured a shovel, a. pickax, and a coil .f rope, walked straight to the ramparts, and, declining all offers of assistance, lowered himself from an embrassure. The firing at he moment was fast and furious. As Kelly set foot upon the ground and, shouldering his tools, walked deliberately toward the dead bodya dozen - French muskets were pointed at him. One of the enemy's commanders, however, divining the sail- or's intentions, ordered his men to shoul- der arms. In an instant both sides, as if by some common impulse, 'ceased firing, and Kelly, the object of breathless attention from friend and foe, stopped,, beside the Frenchman's corpse. He then coolly and calmly dug a grave, pat the officer -into it, covered bim up, and taking from his pocket a small piece of board and a bit of chalk wrote on the board "Here you lie, old Crop," and put at the head of the grave this rough-and-ready memorial. "Old Crop" was no doubt honest Kelly's rendering of "Crapaud," the --French for a frog, and a nickname with the sailors for all "moan. seers." This pious duty done," he_sihOuldered his implements again, walked flack as de- liberately as he had come, and disappeared, within the embrasure.

Defendant— " Well, everybody told me that I must come provided with a means of defence, and I fancy .'ve brought it." - A close examination of the discriminating tariff which Newfoundland has declared against Canada shows that the duty is in- creased on pork, butter, tobacco, kerosene, cornmeal, hay, potatoes, turnips, cabbages and other vegetables. As the hay and vege- tables must go from Canada it looks very much as if the Newfoundland Government has cut off its nose to spite its face. It's easy to see who will pay the duty in the case of Newfoundland. The McCarthyites have received a set back in Waterford, Ireland, by the election of Mr. John E Redmond, a Parnellite, over Mr. Michael Devitt by 1725 votes to 1229 a majority of 496. The result was due to the fact that three-fourths of the working- men voted for Mr. Redmond instead of sup- porting Mr. Devitt, as most people expect- ed they would. It is thought that the same thing will occur in Limerick and Dublin at the general election, so that the Parnellites, instead of being.annibilated in the great struggle now within measurable distance, will hold a few seats. But there is nothing in connection with the Waterford election to *stn.}, the belief that a vast majority of the Irish people will waver in their anegi- ance to the constitutional leaders, Mr. Redmond's election will encourage the Par- nellites to continue the fight which most of them has begun to regard as hopeless, and the reconciliation for which the patriots had yearned has been perforce indefinitely deferred. As a party, the Par- nellites are in a far better position with regard to money, than their opponents. The majority of the Parnellites are financi- ally well -to do, and only two or three of them receive anything from the party trea- sury. In the background at present stands Mrs. Catharine Parnell, widow of the late leader, nursing a fierce resentment, and prepared, if need be, to spend the bulk of her large fortune in punishing the men whom she regards as the murderers of her hus- band.- Bearing in mind these facts, it is not difficult to understand the persistent re- fusal of the Parnellites to release and share the £40,000 locked up in Paris. Their Name is Legion. There is no lack of so-called cures for the common ailment known as corns. The vege- table, animal, and mineral kingdoms have been ransacked for cures.

It is in every way comparable with some of the great lakes of America, for, while its area is only 9,000 square miles, making ft much smaller than the three largest of our five great lakes, and about the exact equal to Lake Erie in superficial extent, its enormous depth, 4,000 to 5,000 feet, make the total volume of its waters almost equal to those of Lake Superior. Its level is 1,350 feet above that of the Pacific Ocean, but, not- withstanding, its bottom is more than 3,- 000 feet below it. There are many other deep lakes in the world, but so far Baikal takes the palm. Lake Maggiore is 3,000 feet deep, Lake Como 2,000, and Lego -di -Garda, another Italian lake, nearly 1,900 feet in depth.. Lake Constance averages about 1,- 000 feet, and Lakes Superior and Michigan about 800 feet. Evildoers, Beware! Judgment has been rendered in favor of the St. Leon Mineral H ater Co. against one E.
