The St. Marys river is clear of ice and Ihe paisage down is good now. The apring seems pretty backward, snowing to-day with a cold wind from Superior. We certainly net enough cold weather in this country. You will have noticed the Sauh in- tends Koing ahead in the near fiiturn, with the construct iuii of a ilry dock, ex- teiisitm ( f the steel industry, and the oonliauationof the A.

They had a trades procession hero last Victoria Day and, even with the help of the fire bri- gade, it was not 1, 2, 3 with the tradeg procuiision at home. It was in the " also ran " class, all riijht. I can congratulate you on the improved appearance of tlio enlarged Advance^ which is always welcome. The personal news, which to a str*nger is so trivial, is always of interest when one kuows every- body for a long distance around, like myself. I see Alex. Madill, his son, Ben, and Fred Walton from the Valley occasion, ally, and last Saturday I ran across Wts. Duncan, who used to be with Henry Wdson, blackemithing. ll« is working at his tr.ide in town. The Mansoll fam. ily and Miss I;ia Beiittiol see ijuite often. The (Jow Oanda country has attracted a lot of attention here. This town always was a " pluiiKer." Nearly ovoryone you n.oot is deeply. interested in Cohiilts, and also ill copper propoiitions away ba-:k from heio. Thero is any amount of iron and copper north of here and not very fir. either, and some day this hitherto di'spisid Algonia will produce Noinetliinir liesides pine and pulp wood. I was talk- ing lately to a man who has located moot of the iron in Minnesota, and ho can put his tinker on precisely the same indications as he found there, within twinlyjmiles of hero. His theory is that the formation di|.is undor Superior and crops out up here again, and at Michipicoten whore thu Helen mine is. It may be years yet before anything is done, but its there nil right, waiting to make somebody a big "bank loll," Don't think I have anything particular worth botheriiig'you with, 10 au revoir.

Their search, however, appears to have been more after gold, and this they discovered, according tothoCidling- wood Enterprise of July 18, 1802. Why thit discovery was not followed up is ex- plained in the dithoulty of mining and entire absence of traniportation facilities. Following is the item from the Enterprise referred to : "A number of thegold diggers wholeft here about three inontha since returned from French Uiver on Saturday a weak ago. The party are reaerved in their communications, but the Enterprise learns that after enduring many hardshipa, and graat annoyance with flies, they proceeded •bout 300 miles north of Lake Nippiaing, to the height of land, where they found evident traces of geld, in beds of alternate granite and slate, but aa to whether it was found In sufiicient quantities to pay for digging, we could not learn, which re- main! still to be proved. One thing ia establiihed however, that gold exists, although in what ipiantities wa are still in the dark. The party stated that they went so far north, that on ascending a hill they fimnd it to be almost perpetual day, for on laying down to rest at ten o'clock in the evening, '.hey had clear daylight, and on wakinu up in the morning at three o'clock, they also found it perfect day, there are away ahead of lota of others gi'inK the psrty ;ho impressivin, that it hold in much larger places, both as re- had been daylight during the whole Weak Women To weak ami ailing wompn, thpro Is at least ona way to liolp.
