WEDNESDAY MORNING. APRIL 17,1S67.
DAY-BREAK.
\
I waa standing in thc pearly
Twilight, of tho morning early,
With my face
Through the jrdlory pillars turning
Where the east was faintly burning
With a trace
Of delici?os light jost breaking.
While tho day was slowly waking
In sweet grace.
Far and near the orchard reaches,
Blooming plums, and blossoming peaches,
Thick as hail
On the wind serenely flowing.
Scented leaves were richly blowing
Fink and pale; *
And the clammy dew in clusters,
Starry, corrasoated lustros, ' *
In the veil
Of the heavy Dowering vohraes
Quilting walls, and covering columns,
Braiding alendar, trellis-woven.
Lightly-linked, and diamond-cloven
Lattice rail.
Oozed and dripped, and scattered, glimmering,
In a silvery, alibiing, shimmering
Vapor fi ail
* Mil (1 the air, but fresh and chilling,
Summery, ba1 my, sweet, but thrilling
Rich, but keen;
And the w*? jw-treo before me
Stretched its tangled tassels o'er me
Stretched its long green arms and shook them,
Dripping, till I scarce could brook them,
, In my {.pleen.
I was sleepy, languid, shivering
With the icy spring-air quivering
And a Biorn,
Half disgust, and half of anger,
(llore of sloth, and much of hunger,)
For the sea-green lawns, and fl- <wery
Opal tops of orchards bowery,
S?kon corn.
And blue (sky blue), open, silly
Morning glory, and wet lily
Curled my Up, and crossed my forehead.
; "What a bore," I said, "these horrid,
Marrow-freezing, fog-exhaling,
Slipper-wetting, spirit-quailing
Early hours I
Poh t far rather would I have a
Scent of Mocha or of Java,
Lightly leaning on my pillow.
Drowsing back to slumber's billow,
Than be froze and nauseated
Tiy these chilly, clammy, hated
Fruit and flowers I"
Oh! but then, just where tho branching
Of the willow tree was launching
Its long silken tassels tangled
With a million stars bespangled,
Past my post
Cams a bird, and perched and fluttered
Perched and twisted, eyed, and muttered
Stooped, and raised his head, and seeming
For a moment lost In dreaming
Musing on tbs first, faint, tender
Flush of rising eastern splendor
'Thralled-en tranced-to adoration
In deep, silent eye-ovation
Wrapt and lost i
Till a sudden, wild, emphatic
Thought of joy, or throb ecstatic,
Thrilled his gray coat till it quivered !
Every siliten soft plume shivered 1
And he raised his head and shouted
* Heavens! how the dear tones spouted,
Like a silvery gushing torrent,
Bushing toward, the shining Orient 1
And he sang, and sang, out-pouring
Hymn on byran and psalm adoring
Praised, and glorified, and hallowed
That>bright orb, whose coming mellowed
Earth and sk}', and shore and river,
Till he made :tny whole frame quiver,
And my whole soul follow madly
Where he flung his songs so gladly !
And the anthem seemed to Ult me
Past the thoughts of earth, and drift me
. Toward those golden shores of story,
Shining now beyond the glory
Of the orient arch resplendent,
Ushering in he dawn transcendent!

j STATES CONSUL COLLINS, LAID BEFORE THE SEN?
ATE PREVIOUS TO THE RATIFICATION OF THE CES?
SION TREATY.
NEW YORK, April 4.
To Ute Eon. Wno. E. Seward, Secretary of State oj
the United States: ii
The many erroneous statements in the press of
the day in regard to the country of Russian America
has induced meto lay before you a number of
facts not generally known to tho public, and which
I trust may be valuable to the Department of
State. In my investigation to determine the route
of the Russian American Telegraph, I sought the
highest Bourceii of knowledge in regard to the
physical and topographical condition of the north
western limb ol' our continent. As early as. 1856
. when I first visited St. Petersburg, I embraced
every opportunity to become acquainted with
Russian officers and parties high in authority who
were competent to-enlighten me on the subject
and studied all the maps and books that could be
found relating tort. .
Y BearAdmiral irulghelm, now Governor of the
Am cor country, and who held the office of Governor
cu' Russian America for fivo years, has also given
me much valuable information. I have also had
"frequent conferences with the Governor and Di
rectors of the Ra asian American Company, from
whom much han been learned. The boundaries
.and general outline have been so frequently and
fully given, than nothing need be said further as
to tho location ol! Russian America.
Commencing at 5-1 degrees 40 minutes north la ti
tude, on tha Pacific, the mam land is marked by
a succession of inlands to- the Alia ska so that open
. boats or small river steamers can navigate safely
between the islands and tho main land Many of
thew islands aro covered with splendid timber,
and the waters abound in fish. The coast of the
main land is densely timbered, T, hieb fact was one
of the causes which induced the location of the
Russian American Telegraph to be made inland
east of che mountains.
. The first river of any importance that enters tho
sea in Russian America is the Steeken, or St
.Francis, in about 55 degrees of north latitude
rivet has been followed by our. exploring
_esto the cascades, where it breaks through
}. coast. rango of mountains dividing British
Colombia from. Russian America. This river is
. ' found navigable for boats fifty miles. After pass?
ing the cascades it again becomes navigable for
- some distance toward the Rocky. Mountains.
Game and ?ah are'abundant, timber good, and
gold mining - bas. already been commenced by a
. party of Americans. Natives are quite numerous
. during tho fishing season, but are reported friendly,
and anxious to i;rade furs, etc., for merchandise.
Itis said that the prospect for gold on this riverie
equal to the old 1849days of California.
lhere are many small rivers as you ascend along
the coast, and pass over the mountains into tho
British possessions, and parties of natives trade
with the interio r tribes more to the east and north
by following the source of these streams, and thus
arrive in the volley between* the coast range and
.the Rooky Mountains. .The..next river of any im?
portance is tho Oopper Mine, .which,enters the sea'
in view of Moimi St. Elias, in about 60 degrees
north latitude, and 142 degrees west longitude.
"This river is or importance in consequence of its
icoatioh and tho access it gives to the interior, as
it unites by a bte the waters of the Yukon within
BriHBian. territory, 'giving almost uninterrupted
' navigation from, the coast on the Pacific, bs. way of
the Yukon and ISnitchpek, to Behring's Sea, thus
giving easy ac jess through a large part of tho
southwest limb of this country. Next comes Cook's
Inlet, and a river entering into it, which the Rus?
sian American Company use in connection with the
' Kcoakovine to reach the Knitchpek and Fort St.
I Michael.
Y Jitter passing the Peninsular of Allaska, we find
a considerable iitream entering into Bristol Bay.
? This stream, by a system of lakes, is said to con?
nect with Cook'* inlet. Next in order comes the
JKooskovrmes, & river of considerable magnitude,
and of importance to the country in giving access
to the interior. This section of . the connery gives
considerable trude to the Russian-American com?
pany, and in winch they have trading stations.
The largest, most important, ana the chief and
queen of all the rivera wost of the Rocky Moun?
tains, and north of 46 degress north lattitude, is
?he great Kmtchpek, which enters into Behring's
Sea between 64 and 65 degrees north latitude, by
several mouths, and on the parallel of 165 degrees
west longitude. This great river has an easterly
course for some five degrees, then bends abruptly
to the north some four degreed, thence nearly cast
to a point not "AX distant from tho British frontier,
whexe it receives the Porcupine or Rat River from
the northeast, and the Yukon form the southeast ;
the junction o?'these two rivers tbrm .'the Kmtch?
pek ; it is navigable to the sea, a distance of 1000
miles, for steamboats. This river had never been
seen by white mon in i+s whole course previous to
explorations fer the construction of tho Russian
American telef.Taph ; in fact, on many maps the
Yukon was tra-:ed as an affluent of an ima-mary
river, emptying into the Arctic Ocean, but the ex?
plorations have determined a great geographical
fact, which places the Kmtchpek at the head of all
rivers on the northwest coast, and riving Russian
America the largest river north of 49 degrees.
As we proceed north through Behring's Strait,
and enter the Arctic Ocean, we find Kotzobue
Sound, which is fed by a considerable rivet, on
which is a large population; here is found, like on
the coast of the Arctic Siberia, extensive deposits
of animal remains, where fossil ivory may becomo,
as in Siberia, an article'of valuable commerce.
Further east there are many bays and sounds,
and beyond Point Barrow thc Colville River enters
Garrison Bay. This river has its main course to
the south, and the natives report it navigable and
inhabited from a point not far from the northern
bend of the Kmtchpek to the sea.
Fort Yukon, the head station of the Hudson Bay
Company, west of the Rocky Mountains, is ou ( 1
Russian territory. This fact has not been cstab- ]
lished by Government survey, yet it is well known t
to both Russia and England.* No difficulty has ?
grown out of it between tue two Governments, be- 1
cause the Rossi an American Company and the 1
Hudson's Bay Company, who have enjoyed exclus- 1
ive trade in these regions, came to an under- 1
standing as to their interests along tho lino of the c
disputed territory, in order that there should bo A
no conflict one way or the other among tho natives. <
They were for peace along the boundaries, and no r
doubt pursued a wise course. j
Major Kemficutt, chief of an exploring party, t
who died on the Knitchpek last year, had spent, t
some years preyi?usly, a winter at Fort Yukon. Ho t
describes the country as favorable to trade and of
S-eat importance to tho Hudson Bay Company. \
e explored a large district of the country around t
the fort, generally on foot. He entered the conn- 1
tryon his first voyage by tho Mackenzie River i
pass, returning the same way on the voyage for <
the exploration of the route of the telegraph. He i
entered by way of Fort St. Michael, near Behring's <
Straits. Gu the upper waters of the Knitchpek, j
and upon the whole course of the Yukon, timber t
is plentiful; the country abounds in game and the i
rivers and lakes afford fish. Salmon ascend the t
Knitchpek in great numbers and are largely taken j
by the natives for food, both for themselves and t
their dogs during the win ter. The natives are rc- ?
ported by Major Kennicutt, and by employees of
the Hudson Bay Company, as peaceable anc won?
derfully honest, theft being rarely known among i
them. They are a vigorous, enterprising people, 1
?nd very fond of foreign trade and merchandise,
though tho difficulty and cost of transportation bv t
way of Mackenzie River route limits tho supply t?? t
much below the demand. ' ]
Navigation by way of the Knitchpek would mere* ie ?
tho trade and Taroo of thia emmi ry ono hun dr
in a few years; in faot the Knitchpek, with
upon it, would reveal a new world to enterpri
au venture. By this stream the wholo of al
to unknown country is brought within the re
steam communication from San Francisa
when tho Stars and Stripes shall flaunt a
Yukon we may.look for mines of gold and
being discovered quito as rich as those f
south. Tho furs or this countrv are wond<
plentiful, and form a valuable anti extensiv<
meroe both to tho Russian and British tr
That tho Hudson Bay Company con afford to
E>rt their merchandise ana supplies overlain
udsou Bay, or by way ot St. Paul, and J
their furs over tho same route, jg* startlin
deuce of the value of the trade, because trai
tation over this long route cannot cost less tl
per pound. With the Knitchpek open to
navigation, ten cents per pound from San Fr
co would pay enormously.
Upon the whole, Russian America, with i
pendencies, the islands attached to it, is a va!
country in itself, viewed intrinsically. It is no
a country as Oregon or Washington in clima
soil, but it hos, nevertheless, many souri
wealth.
In the southern part gold is known to exist
Copper Mine River, whence its name, there ii
poi, though, as a mattor of policy, the RT
American Company have not encouraged mi
because they feared mining, even ii succe
would soon break up their monopoly of th
trade and open the country to the searching
of foreigners and the demoralizing influei
cheaper goods and more lucrative employme
the naives.
Thc isheries along the coast and islands
build up a population and commerce t hera w
at no distant day, will rival Newfoundland au
coast of the Atlantic, east of Cape Cod. The s
and banks along the islands or Russian Au
are the resort of myriads of codfish, unsurp
for size and delicacy. Once give us a lodgi
these fishing towns will soon spring into
tence, giving for our Pacific ooast a nursei
first-class seamen, which, in the growing
merceofthe Pacific, will be just what wo
there in the future, in order to give us the 8
macy of that ocean. The fisheries alone are %
more to ns th ?n the whole cost of the cou
and will repay us in the future simply for tl
vostmont. The immense population of Ask
the islands of the Pacific will be good custo
for our surplus fish, and will readily take a
have to spare* Timber for building purpot
abundant and convenient; Baw-mills will
make the lum ber trade a source of great profit
only for domestic uso, but for export to Ash
the more southern islands. Boat and shipb
ing can be carried i on on profitably where j
timber is so abundant and easily procured.
The acquisition is also valuable on accou
several deposits of coal along tho ooast and isle
At Codiac, the Russian American Company
worked a coal vein for some years past, and
used it in their forges and workshops, as well <
their steamers employed hi carrying on their <
meroo with California and Asia.
Nor is this country to be counted os nothii
an agricultural point of view. Wheat, barley
oats can be produced as far north as 60 degr
gardens flourish along the ooast in the Rut
settlements, producing all the vegetables requ
for domestic use:
It must always be remembered that the Pa
coast is much warmer than, the Atlantic coa
equal degrees. The isothermal line of Sitka, (
Archangel,) is equal to Newfoundland or
Petersburg. That is, about 40 degrees to ?
grecs of Fahrenheit, and the mean of tho i
mometer is ascertained to be 45 degrees fouri
utcs ; winter, 34 degrees seven minutes ; suuu
56 degrees two minute s.
Taking it then as a whole, the country of ]
sian America cannot be considered, as s
would have it, a dreary waste of glaciers, i cebe
white hears, and walrus, and only fit for the
qui maux and drinkers of train oil.
One more article of commerce must not be
sight of, that is ice. On the islands there are ra
frosh water lakes, which afford an ihexhanai
supply of very pure'ice. The trade in ice, so
has been conducted either by the Russian Am
can Company or under their permit, conseque
the ice trade has not been developed to any gi
extent. This trade in the hands of Am?ne
would soon grow to wonderful proportions, for.
reason that these lakes in Russian America sui
the only ice suitable for shipment on the Pa<
north of the Equator. I did not mention in on
when speaking of the fisheriee, that all the ;
North, from Codiac to the Artic, whales are foi
in great abundance. Codiac and Bristol Bay
all whaling grounds, and many a New Engl,
town owes its wealth to the large catch of wm
in Russian American waters. Walrus are as pl
tiful at and about Behring's Straits as blackber.
ore with us in August. With American nab
settlements along the coast, the ivory and oi
these walrus will become no small source of wei
to our enterprising fisher men.
One more fact in regard to climate and temi
atore. Major Kennicutt died at the great east
bend of the Knitchpek, 500 miles by the cours*
the river from its entrance into Behring Sea. 1
ice in the Knitchpek broke; up jon.May 24, and
May 25 a portion of his companions embarked
mi+ive boats, taking with them Major Kennion
body,.navigated the river to the sea, without
structura, nd then coasted north 70 miles,
.Fort St. Michael, a post of tho Russian Amen*
Company. This proves a great deal as to :
favorable temperature of that country, and mal
tho Knitchpek nearly as early as the BL Lawrei
in point of navigation.1 '. ?'.'.'fa .?

Tho New York Herald's Paris correspond?
writes March 29:
The health of the young Prince Imperial, son
Louhi Napoleon, who is now eleven years old,
said to be delicate. It is an ominions fact that :
one hundred and sixty years no monarch in Frar
has been succeeded by his son. Thus, Louis Xl
was the grandson of Louis XIII.; Louis XV. v
the grandson of Louis XIY.; Louis> XYL was t
grandson of Louis XV. ; Louis XYLTL was t
brother of Louis XVI., Louis XVLL dying in chi
hood, and never came to the throne. The succ<
sor of Louis XYTJEL was his brother, Charles
His successor was his cousin, Louis Phillip]
Napoleon L was succeeded, not by his son, Nae
leon LT., but bv his nephew. Napoleon UL T
heir of Louis Phillippe, the Duke of Orleans, w
killed by being thrown ont of his carriage. T
heir and son ol Charles X., the Duke of Berri, w
assassinated while assisting his wife into a ce
riage at tho Paris Opera House. The present h<
to the Bourbons is the Count de Bordeaux, w]
was born after the assassination of his father, tl
Duke de Berri.
A German paper thus describes Count Bi
mar ck as he appears in the North German Parn'
ment: "His speeches are very uncouth in sty]
md bis voice is sharp and grating. When exd
od he losses tho thread of his discourse, and n
[infrequently commits fruits of grammar and co:
structura. At the same timo there is an opigrai
marica 1 incisiveness in his short, sharp sentence
and a picturesqueness of expression m his styl
which go far to redeem his oratorical defects; ai
if the lorm in which he clothes his ideas is som
ivhat harsh and repelling, there can be r
iloubt as to the value and effect of the ide:
themselves. His speeches are full of deep though
:>f far-reaching political insight, and of statesmai
ike views. His wit, too, is very remarkable, au
its slashing effect has been felt by many an antag(

The Day Forty-eight Honrs Long,
Last week we showed that tho first beginning oi
;he day is somewhere between America and Asia
Fh? precise locality of that* somewhoro has no
seen determined. If the Pacific Ocean was thick
ly populated with men, the place of the beginning
rf the day would be a matter of groat consequence
md would probably bo Bottled Dy statute. Th<
lay would start from a meridian fine extending
'rom pole to pole, and the longitude of this da?
ine would be so accurately fixed, that a mai
night stand astride it and realizo tho paradox o:
laving one foot in Monday and tho other in Tues
lay. Many of the readers of this will live lon?
mough to hear this subject discussed in nationa
councils.
We propose now to show that Monday, or anj
)ther weelc day, is forty-eight hours long; womeai)
;hat during forty-eight hours Monday is on earth
jomewhere to be found. Tho Monday of this city
is of course twenty-four hours long, but before
ind after our Mondav there ?B Monday in some
)ther quarter. When Monday begins in New York,
there havo beon three hours bf Monday in London,
ind for three hours after our Monday ends there
rill bo Monday in San Francisco. Thus between
ihesa places Monday lasts eighteen hours. Now
f the day lino wore at our antipodes, Monday
ifould begin there twelva hours before ours, and
md twelve hours after ours. Thus, for the space
jf forty-eight hours, earth is not rid of Monday.
Die fact may bo illustrated in another way. Sup
nose we are at the day line. Monday there be?
nns, and in twonty-four hours along comes Tuos
lay. But just west (half an inch, if you pleaso),
donday began only an instant before it ended east
rf the hue. Tho Monday oast of the fine is twonty
bur hours long, and west of tho fine is tho same

ICELAND WHALE FISHERY.-For a century, thoro
md been scarcely any whale fishing carried on ut
iceland, and the long repose had caused the llsh
o increase abundantly; until an enterprising
\morican recently established himself at Seydis
iord,,onthc cast coast, where, in company with
lis four brothel's, he adopts a peculiar method of
ishing, which is described in a report just laid he
tore tho English Parliament. Tho fisherman puts
rat to. sea ina small screw steamer, with a largo
vhalo boat in tow, and strikes the whale by means
)f a harpoon shot from a sort of rocket apparatus.
The handle or stock is charged with some detonat
ng compound wliich explodes as tho weapon enters
he fish, killing the whale almost instantly, but
ho generation of gas in its body prevents tho
linking of tho carcass.
The destructive missile is the American's own in?
dention. Ho counted upon being able to approach
ho whales in his steamer near enough to take aim,
rat they invariably avoid it, and it has been found
?ecessaVy to shoot them from tho bont. Tho body
>f tho whale is towed to lund and the carcass cut
ip on the strand, and the blubber mid bones at
race crushed aud boiled down for the oil. Last
rear the catch was twenty-iive whales, which gave
m average of 100 barrels of oil per whale. The
vhaleboncs are sent tc England, where they are
said to be used for making Prussian blue, and a
jrqiect has been broached fer pressing the flesh
md sending it to England for feeding dogs and
?igrs.
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican says : "One
;honsand workmen have struck work at tho Port
and stone quarries, and have been idle since
rueadav. on account of the discharge of some of
,ho number for voting tbo Democratic ticket at
,he recent election, and fifty of the mill hands at
lockville have also lost their situations for a
?iuiilar reason."

Cheap newspapers seem to bo making great
headway in London. Residos the Telegraph, which;
has probably a larger circulation than any other
doily journal in the world, reaching 140,000 copies,:
and the Star, which is a party paper and less pride-,
ly read, a new penny paper, called The Day, has
inst been started. It isa quarto, each page as:
large as the Times, printed in clear type upon
good paper, and filled with very good and roada-:
I ble matter. The paper alono must cost more:
than the price of tho printed sheet,-notldng,
therefore, can support it but a very large
, amount of advertising. Notwithstanding the
progress of the English penny Press, the Times
maintains the supremacy, and will, doubtless, do
so permanently. Its money, and, what is of still
I more importance, the great experience and sagooi-]
ty of its managers, command ? or its columns tho
ablest and most brilliant waiters of the day; and
there is, and always will bo, a large class of peoplo
in England who prefer quality to cheapness, and
who will have tho bost nt whatevor c-st. In spite
of rivalry, tho Times continues to be by all odds,
in all its" departments, the abl?st newspaper ever
published, lot without in thc least disturbing tho
position or influence of that great journal, tho
Penny Press has become one of tho "institutions"
of England. /
GOOD EXCUSE.-The laBt number of the Weekly
Pine Bluff (Ark.) Dispatch apologizes for the small
amount- of editorial matter in that issue, on tho
ground that Major Sparks, the editor, is absent;
Captain Block, who is editor during the Major's
absence, quite sick and unable to write anything;
while ?ie Military Bill having become a law, the
remainder of the attaches aro too much "skeart"
to say anything, unless they talk about the Fe?
nians. Besides all that, the "office is half full of
snow, the printers nearly frozen, the publisher's
cow run dry, the editor's wife out of wood, the
hens unwilling to lay, and the writer himself in
despair from these manifold ills. ' He says to his
Eatreus, if these reasons ore insufficient for the
orren condition' of his columns, they may go to
Boston for better ones. .

NEW ORLEANS, April ll.-COTTON-Tho movement
to-day has been of a restricted character, from the open?
ing to the close of business. Tho assortment was ample
throughout, and most factors showed renewed anxiety to
realize, though generally indisposed to yield to the ex?
tent demanded by buyers; while the latter, on tho other
hand, in view of tho increased depression prevailing in
the leading domestic markets, as well as tho anticipation
of a further d* cline at Liverpool, steadily refused to
operate, deeming it more prudent to defer the execution
of their orders and await tho receipt of later intelli?
gence. The additional depreciation looked for at Liver?
pool has not been realized, however, as dispatches have
como to hand this evening reporting a favorable reaction,
and quoting Middling Uplands at 12 Sid, which is an im?
provement of .Vd. The sales to-day footed np barely
2000 bales, at previous prices, the market closing steady
at our quotations. Referring to the abo vo remarks we
repeat as follows: Ordinary 24a24J?c, Good Ordinary 25a
25>?c, Low Middling 27a-, and Middling 28a28>?c.

From SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D., Professor
Practice of Physic, Jefferson Medical College; Phila?
delphia, formerly of Charleston, S. C.:
PHILADELPHIA, November 15,1885.
I have been for a year or more past in the habit ot
taking the water of the "Excelsior" Spring of Saratoga.
Accustomed during the great portion of my invalid fifa
to use tho different waters of the several fountains which
boil up along that remarkable valley, dependent, Indeed,
upon them tor much of the comfort I enjoy, I am satis?
fied that the Excelsior Water is as well adapted, aa any
other among them, if not more so, to the purposes for
which they are generally employed. It ls very agreeable,
strongly impregnated with the carbonic acid, lively and
sparkling. * * * I can heartily and conscientiously
recommend it to all who need a gentle cathartic and
diuretic SAMUEL HENEY DICKSON, M. D.
The Water is put up in Pint and Quart bottles, and
packed bi good order for shipping, Pints in boxes of
four dozen each, and Quarts in boxes of two dozen each.
