I am told that there isa sable om the 4 Lana river whose aristocratic skin, though it may bring ‘the animal very little, can be sold in the market for five ~-or six hundred roubles, bat this kind is not knowa jn Eamtschatka, Of course this Lena sable is very scarce, ~and can only be worn by royalty and persons of noble ‘blood or those whose wealth gives them a patent of no- ‘dility. The sable of Kamtschatka is more demooratic, and goes to all paris of the citilized world. “The fur that warms a monarch warmed a bear,’ is not as liter- «ally trae im these days as when that line was written, as ‘the bear ‘has become unfashionable, and therefore of ~low price. ‘The sable and tho sea otter are the most valuable furs, but the latter are so’ scarce as te offer ‘very little competition to the former. When Kamtscuatka was conquered by the Russians » the natives wore required to pay a ‘“‘yessak,”” or tribute, «che same as the subjects of the empire everywhere. This yessak corresponds to the poli tax in America, - and is collected by the authorities the sare as our poll ‘tax ts gathered, The tax in Kamtschatka was fixed at one sable for every four persons—native Kamtschadales— ~and hasremained the same down to the present time. A gentleman tells me that the dogs sometimes leave the road‘for the track of a bear, wolf or tox, an@ start upon hunting excursion of their own, It ix om such occasions that the ostol! plays an important part us the driver's endeavors to stop jhe sled:e, which he is new always able todo, The sledge for travelling 1 made ae Hight as possible; the lightest being twenty or twenty five pounds in weight. some of them have an: attachmeat somewhat resembling the back of an arm chair, the beat comparison I can make, though not a-very accurate one. This is placed directly behind the upright bow, and the driver sits within it, retaining, of course, bis sidewise Position, His baggage is tied on the after part of the sledge, and the seat is of bear skin, as usuel. Another travelling vehicle carries a passenger who: sits inside @ covered space at the hindmost end something like the interior of a one horse shay. A curtain tn front protecte him from the wind, and as there are windows like those of a chaise, be can enjoy himself by readime if ao inclined, Jeaying the entire management of the team to the driver. Of course these vehicles are much heavier than the other tas jong journeys tor a ingle person are made like the freight sledges in most respects, always keeping theas ‘as light ag possible for the service required.
