Lord Lousdale reached the great Slave lake in June last year and went around it in boats, suffer- ing great hardships. His only white companion was William McEwen, a Hudson's Bay com- pany’scook. On Hay river he found one of the company’s steamers, put on to carry freight ap the McKenzie river. Of this part of his trip he said: “Wlule on the Hay river I saw the most beautiful waterfall in the world. It is a horse- shoe in shape and has a sheer fall of 200 feet, with another fall above it. It is about 134 miles wide at top and 1°, miles wide at the bot- tom. It is more beautiful than Niagara,although there is not the same weight of water. Words cannot describe its magnificent beauty. as great block after block of ice and iceberg after ice- berg come whirling over and down into the abyss below. “I went to Peel river in a steamer. and there got a boat and eight natives and started for the Arctic ocean. It was with the greatest difficulty I could get Indians to go with me, as they were terribly afraid of the Esquimanx, who up there are called ‘Huskeys.’ These Huskeys seem to bea race by themselves. Instead of being mall of stature and dark, as ix the case with Esquimaux genera!ly. they are big and tall.” These Esquimaux tried to intimidate Lord Lonsdale, but he refused to be frightened by their pretended attempts to stab him, and they ended by becoming his sworn friends, In August. with their help he arrived at Melville asland, the farthest north he reached. From this point Lord Lonsdaie determined to walk to the Yukon river across the mountains, a dis- He reached the Yukon and d down the Ajuko, where there is a 2 rissionary station. The river was then closed, so he determined to strike off overiand for Katami, opposite Kodiak. He says of this trip During the journey we encountered many difficulties, arid it was bitterly cold. the lowest the thermometer reached being 64 below zero. It was worse, after walking and running all | day, to have to lie in the snow to sleep. There | Was no wood to warm our clothing. and we had the greatest difficulty in crossing the moun- tains. “ihe people said it was impossible; that twelve men had died in trying. I started with nine sleds and sixty-nine dogs. At the foot of | the mountwins the Indians refused to cross and | tried to desert in the night. 1 took one of | them by the neck and made him go before, aud ! walkedatter him.

At3in the morning, when they got up toxbandon me in the dark, they were sur- prised to find me before them, I started at6 o'clock that morning in the dark and had to the highest point of which was The cold was intense, and terrible storms wonld come up at times, When I got across I had only twenty-nine dogs left, all the others having frozen to death. Seven Indians were missing and fivesleds. After waiting for two days I set out to look for the missing men end found them in a terrible condition, All the dogs were dead. I brought the men down safe and sound, only their handsand feet being frozen. I waited at Katmoi until March 16, when the Alaska company sent a letter to me. Then I waited for the steamer Bertha, on which I have just arrived.” In conclusion Lord Lonsdale said he did not think anything would be made out of the Yukon mines. There was gold, but only in small quantities, The miners were suffering greatly. tance of 80 miles. flow! see VERY PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY. ‘The Sort of Ladies They Have in Ne- braska.

Recovering from her seare, she wrenched her arm free and pasted that tramp in the mouth with her left. Before he could figure out what struck him he caught her right on his neck and went over like a falling church. He came up pretty groggy and mad all over, but she wasn't through with him. She just lammed that tramp around the eyes and ne until be made a sneak for the gate, though he had been run through a corn shel- r.

From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. ‘The hottest day that I ever experience said Paul Mercier, “was during the summer of 1859, while aboard a ship at Key West, Fla. The sun beamed down upon the deck of the vessel, and seemed to be so close that it would almost raise blisters.

The ex-congressman’s words were re- ceived with cheers, and hundreds of men are leaving Oklahoma to follow his advice. It is estimated that 3,000 homesteaders have broken soil in the strip. Three companies of cavalry are now out scouting with orders to remove them to Kansas and Oklahoma. Remarkable good order continues to be pre- served at Guthrie. No whisky can be bought. Provisions continue scarce. read is selling at 15 cents a loaf for 5-cent loaves. Crackers sell at 1.50 a pound.

Good order is also reported from King Fisher. Nevertheless three additional companies of in- fantry have been ordered there.

From the Chicago Times. Herbert Spencer, the English philosopher, who has published many essays on a variety of subjects, writes to a friend in Chicago that the railway morals and the railway policy of the United States are in no way inferior to those of England. He thinks that the interstate law is an evolution of the parliamentary laws regulat- ing trains, He asserts that the history of nglish railways since 1345 shows an elaborate by which companies have been betrayed into ruinous undertakings that benefit the tew at the cost of the many. He thinks there is more unblushing corrup- mons in the past decade than has ever taken place in the federal or state legislatures since railways became public highways. He says that to-day there are over 180° members of psrliament who are simply the agents of rail- ways and similar corporations, Most ef these are barristers, who owe their election to the intluence of the roads they serve. These parlia- » their masters and sup- make no sub-rosa st: ment of the nuinber of votes they ean comm: in the house, but proclaim it openly, of both houses are canvassed nd any railway legislation involves an enormous out- jay. In past years it has beea shown that parlia- mentary expenses have varied from 23,000 to 215.000 per mile, the largest proportion of which has gone into the pockets of the parlia- meatar: era. The legal aad parliamentary for expense ne company averaged for the past ten years over $260.000 per annum.

Of all the changes which have taken place in the hundred years of the life of the republic, one which is very marked is never spoken of — the revolution in the fashionable shape of wo- men’s shoulders. Look at Biythe’s portrait of Mrs, John Adams, painted when she was twenty- two, the one with the triple string of pearls about the throat. The shoulders are curved downward in a full oval. Girls inher day were trained to let their arms hang pendant, to d press the shoulders and to poise the head high up on « swan-like .

Erom the Boston Advertiser. A certain well-known gentleman of this city refrains from talking politics much, Especially of late has it become very doubtful to many who are not over well acquainted with hit which side of the present political question he takes, any way. He was seen yesterday to come into the presence of a prohibition Indy, who said straightway. “Well, Mz. R——, I suppose you have dropped in your ‘Yes’ vote by this time?” This gentleman likes to tell a long story, and never to answer immediately in either the affirmative or the m gative if he ean think of anything else to say. “I went into the voting place in my district,” said he. “and when I got to the door two men stood there, one on either side. and each gave me a ballot that had on it, and then when I got in a good-looking young lady gave me one that had j thonght I'd drop that in.” 3 xclaimed the Indy, most agree- ably surprised at this revelation’ of Mr. R's political colors. “Yes,” drawled Mr. R——“in my pocket!” And the lady's face became as long as an amendment circular, see Spring Smiles. to see an antelope.—Salem (Or.)

To tua Eprtor or tux Svux—Sir: I find the following suggestive derelict wandering about the ocean of journalism: “I'd give a thousand dollars,” said a well-to- do New Yorker the other day, “to have that mark removed,” and he held out a well-shaped and well-cared-for hand, on the back of which, between the thumb and first finger, was tat- tooed a big blue anchor. “When I was a little fool at school, with my head full of stories of adventure, my highest ambition was to go to sea, An old sailor who lived in the village tat- tooed about a dozen of us on the sly, and I re- member the lies I told my mother, as I kept and done up ina rag, pretending I had , till the sore healed. Then she gaye me such a thrashing as broke up my plan, fortu- nately, to have a fine red and blue heart done onthe back of the other. The disfigurement has caused me no end of annoyance since and | has cost me considerable money for gloves, which I always wear, winter and summer. though I detest them in warm weather. But a man can’t wear gioves at the table, and often at restaurants I catch people staring at my hand and I wonder if they think I have served in the fo’castle or some oyster scow or lumber schooner,” A tattoo mark is easily removed. May I droj into personal history? When I was a small boy Thad my share of warts, [ tried in turn the three hundred and sixty-eight ways of re- moving them, but without results; indeed. L seemed to get wartier and wartier right alow But at last somebody revealed to me the th hundred and sixty-ninth way, end I tried it. Thus: I drovea needle down into the basement of the wart, then held the other end of the needle in the flame of acandle some little time; the needle became red hot throughout its length, and proceeded to cook the wart. ently Idrew the needle out: if it had y atoms like nits sticking abont its point. that wart was done; if the point was clear, I drove itin again and cooked till I got those white things. They were the roots of the wart, Twenty-four hours later the wart would become soft and flabby. and I removed it with asmgle wipe of my hand. Where it had been smooth surface n which quickly healed, and left noscar. Within two day ‘t= less, and have so remai teen years old, a sailor tattooed an anchor and on the back of my left hand with Ind ink. The color was a deep, dark travagantly conspicuous. I was proud of it for awhile, but by the time I had worn it nine years L was tired of it and ashamed of it. I could tind nobody who could tell me how to get rid of it; but at last my wart experience of near half a generation before occurred to me, and{ got me several needles and a candle straghtway. I drove the needles along just under the surface of the skin and tolerably close together, and made them include the whole tattoo mark; then I fired up on them and cooked that’ device thoroughly. Next day I wiped the device off with myhand, The place quickly healed, and left tio sear, A faint bluish tinge remained, and Iwas minded to begin again and cook that out; but as it was hardly detectable, and not noticeable, it did not seem worth the fuel, and so I left it there, and there it is yet, though I suppose I am the only mem- ber of my tribe that knows it. IT was in Londona good many years ago,when the Tichborne claimant's case was being tried, anda batch of learned experts testified that i India ink tattoo mark could not be remove but Iwas not asked to testify, and so those people don’t know any better to this day, Let the “well-to-do N Yorker” fetch me som needles and a candle, and name his bet.
