Hudson Bay to the wheat fields of Man- ioba, and to establish a line of steamers from. Churchill Harber to Liverpool. /The scheme looks well on paper and has ‘some features of interest, though its present feasibility as a business enterprise may well be questioned. People who ‘have studied geography from maps in- istead of globes will, no doubt, be sur- prised to be told that the distance by ‘water from Liverpool to the western

shore of Hudson Bay, at the mouta of, the Churchill River, a point in the heart. of the Continent, is 114 miles shorter |

than that from Liverpool to New York, aud sixtyy-four miles shorter than from ‘Liverpool to Montreal. This -act, in

the fertile region of the North West, is a challenge to commercial enterprise to \seek a new water-way to Europe for the inereasiug grain product of Manitoba ‘and Dakota. The harbor of Churchill is |said to be deep enough to accommodate ‘the largest steamships, and the only diffi- culty in navigating Hudson Strait ‘and Hudson Bay (no Bay, prop- erly speaking, but a great inland sea) ‘arises from ice. It is not supposed the _route could be kept open for more than five months ia the year, but the pro- jectors imagine that it would be profit- ‘able, even with such a limited season for its annual operations.

| From Liverpool the steamers of the | proposed route, after clearing the north

Davis to Resolution Island, at the en-,

strait, leading to Iludson Bay, is from, forty-five to 100 miles wide and its navi-' gation is not dangerous. When Hudson Bay was reached there would be plain. sailing across it to Churchill Harbor. ' The distance trom Churchill to a poiat on the Canadian Pacific Railroad, which wonld be the southern terminus of the) projected line, is about 850 miles. The country is a wilderness for the most of the way and is of doubtful value for future settlement, but the construction of a rail-. road through it, following the valleys of, the Churchiiland Nelson Rivera,would not- be a very difficult undertaking. The whole scheme looks Quixotic, but it may only anticipate the future by a few: decades. When population becomes dense in this country and Canada and the, reserves of arable wild land are ex | hausted, coming geverations may find that the enormons territory of British, America is uot all a frozen wilderness. Parts of it may prove as favorable for, human habitation as Finland and Nor-' way, aud the numerous alluvial valleys | may support a hardy population, When) that day comes the surplus grain preduct of the North-West will be of such vast dimensions that a route which saves the whole distance from Winnipeg to Mon-| treal may be found practical and profit-: able.—WN.

The Sun-Dance of the Sioux.

This is the largest of the Indian tribes in America, numbering forty thousand, while the average number in a tribe ie three thousand. In their religious be-.

in one good and one evil spirit, but in many. Their polytheism gives to the rock, the forest, the mountain chain and the stream each its own good and evil destiny. Misfortunes they charge to the evil goods, so that they seek to propiti- atethem and pray to good and bad alike. Their most solemn religious ceremony is the smoking of the calumet to the Great Good Spirit. When the chiefs have as- sembled and are squatied in a circle the eldest ‘amorg them takes the calumet, and holding it towards heaven exclaims solemnly, ‘‘Smoke first, thou Great Spirit, giver of good.” Then he holds it downwards, saying, ‘‘ Thou next, mother earth, giver of, crops;” whaling next three mouthfuls of smoke, whith he ex- hales heavenward for incense, ald passes the pipe to the next, where the’ritual is repeated. Before embarking on a lake they throw a twist 6f tobacco as far out iuto the water as they cau send it, as an offering to the lake spirit. Their respect for their gods is so great that in their own language they have invented no exple- tives. When a Sioux wishes to swear he ‘must do it in English. Their dances from all form of worship, the three principal among them being the war, the medicine, and the great sua dances. When a young brave is anxi- ous for distinction in his tribe he attempts to signalize himself in the atrocities of the great sundance. It lasts three days. commencing at sundown, and the partici- pants fast during the entire period. It pis intended to gain the favor of the Great

the Hawaiian Islands is his title. It an- noys him excessively to have the name pro- nounced as if spelled Calico, and when he sees it in print im that humble fashion he is out of ail patience. The electric light has made a very deep impression on the King’s mind. He arrived in New York on Friday, and there for the first time learned of the death of President Garfield. The latest news the King and party had previously had was that the President’s condition was encouraging, and they hoped to be able when here to pay their respects in person. Colovel Judd, the King’s Chamberlain, says that as they drove up Broadway and noticed the universal gloom prevailing, the magnificence of the sorrow, his Majesty was much moved. Never had he wit- nessed such a display upon the part of any people attesting love for a ruler.
