Williams of Oakland (recently deceased), and Robert Lowrie and S. 1. Marston, who weve on the schooner Alaska, and were lost. Some seventy-five tons of ore wore on the Alaska when she was lost. Those who took passage on the Alaska left at the mine Edward Allen, David Mackey, Harry Richards, F. B. Price, Robert Lowrie, William Walton, and John Nicholson, Through the winter months the men worked at the mine, getting out ore ready to be laden on the sckooner, which they expected to return. In June last the revenue-cutter Thomas Corwin, Capt. Healey, stopped at Golowin bay with letters for the miners. The letters were taken by an Esquimaux employed by the mining company to the mine, The missives told that the schooner had never reached San Francisco. 1t was then de- cided that some of the party should re- turn to this city. Accordingly F. B. Price, Robert Lowrie, William Walton, and John Nicholson prepared to leave the mine. They embarked ina baydere for . Michaels, a distance of seventy miles in a straight line, but fully 240 wmiles following the coast-line around Norton sound, as the men in the little boat were compelled to do. The perilous trip occupied two weeks. When the wind was favorable sail was used, and when the wind was unfavorable during a calm, oars were used, Four oars had been left in a whaleboat of the Leo and oarlocks were groved on the baydere, Paddles, such as are used by the natives, also were used, After having been in the water a couple of days, the skins of which the boat was made became slack, and the waves striking against the sides made them move inward and outward. The trip, however, was made in safety, and at St. Michacls the men took passage on wka Commercia .

In midwinter the sun ghone for two hours and a half only out of the twenty- four. In midsummer the sun shoue twenty-one and a half hours during the day, and at any time the light was suffi- cient to read the print of a newspaper, In the winter the men wore faques (coats) made of decrskin, ¢quirrelsking or musk- ratskin, and caps of foxskin, Mr. Price says that he did not experience pain from the severe cold except during the terrible zalcs of winter, when the show was plown in clouds acroes the valley. The warmth of this latitude has eemed unpleasant, however, since his return, For food the men had a stock of salt meat and canned goods and beans, taken by the schooner. Pike, pickerel and tomcod were caught, and easegete (grouse) and rabbits were shot and eaten. In the valley where the men were at work were ab.ut one hundred natives, and there was an Esquimau villsge called Chingamutz in (iolowin bay. No trouble was experienced with the natives except two men, who seemed to bave better understanding than the others, and who exer ‘8¢ their cunning upon the supersti- nx natures of their fellows. These twu natives gave the miners cousiderable troublo, and in the early spring claimed the mine and threatened they would bring such a number of men from Cape Prince « { Wales that 1he whites would ne Esquimaux,” without force protect their lives or prop.

Kach sad his way was the best, and several said all the others were entirely wrong and knew nothing about how to cure it. A little knowledge of medicine is a dangerous thing, but a very valuable item of medical knowledge is, that Brown’s Iron Bitters builds up wasted systems, and by enriching en- feebled blood gives health and strengch.
