■ THS people of the north.
■ ;fe Among the Inhabitants ot the
Hudson’s Bay Country.
9 An Ottawa correspondent writes to the
Pittsburg Post as follows: Those who have
Bcver seen life as it exists among the in-
Kabitauts of the Hudson's Bay country
■rould be astonished at the extent of civili-
among a class of people general' v sup-
Bosefi to be savages, as well as at the
Hwt'ul grandeur of the scenery and
H>rbidding aspect of the graveyard
Boasts along the shores of that northern
Bea. In all the uninhabitable region
■(North America there is nowhere to
Be "found a more bleak, desolate or
Hrcary waste than that between Ungava
■av, off the coast of Labrador on the east,
■VI Fort Churchill on the west and southern
Bart of Hudson Bay proper. Although
Ktle is known yet regarding this weird and
B-ozen region, it has had a growth within
Bhe last half century which has been some-
King phenomenal, and having been meas-
Bred according to its needs by the God of
■ature, has gone on advancing from age to
Bge, until at the present time not alone the
Biost fertile islands, but the extent of land
Back from the coast on either side is thickly
Bopulated by a people who hunt and fish
■rjj breed and talk and chatter even among
Hie misery and destitution which life in a
Hep-ion ®f perpetual frost and snow must
■ring.
If Hudson Bay itself is really an inland sea,
■xtending between latitude 51* and 64°
Borth, and longitude 77° and 95° west, and
Bridle about 1,000 miles long at its greatest
■istance, is only about 600 miles in breadth,
Hovering an area of over 500,000 square
Bales. It is navigable only for about three
Hionths in the year—from the middle of
Hune to the middle of September—and for
Hie remainder of the year is filled with drift
Bee, -which renders navigation, even for
B snort distance, an absolute impossibility.
Bhe eastern coasts of the bay are sights
Bo I* admired, cliffs rising in many cases to
■height of 200 to 400 feet abruptly from
Bhe w ater’s edge, and being composed of a
■lacier-like substance which, being ever
Boated with ice and frozen snow, shine in
Bhe sunlight until it is almost impossible to
Book at them for any length of time. The
Bj®id ( 'nts of this section are not properly
Hsquimaux, but a cross between this race
Bi'd the French and the Indians, who have
■ome in for the purpose of hunting and
Hshing, and finally settled down among the
Katives to live as they do and share with
■hem in the privations which no other life
■fiords.
m On an average, in the summer months, the
Bhermometer stands at about 45° above,
■-hilt' the temperature in the winter runs as
foiv as 60° below zero, and will average about
■>* belowc Fish are scarce, and can be
■aught only in the rivers, of w'hieh on the
Bast there is only the Great Whale, while on
■he west there is the Hayes, Nelson,
■’hurchill, Moore, Albany, Weeknisk, Main
Hnd Abbitibbe Seal abound in plenty, but
Kr<> extremely shy and hard for the natives
■< get at, while porpoise and walrus are
Bq’ioUy difficult to get hold of. Were it not
■r the small fur-bearing animals w hich are
■ibout the shores the poor half-
would stand a very
Hood chance of perishing by hunger.
Ks they can expect nothing in the way
Kf favors from the Hudson Bay Company's
■tores, a few of which are along the coast.
■ natives live in little villages eomi>osed
■f from 50 to 100 rude huts. Each commu
nity has its place of worship ami its church
Bnal ground, which is consecrated by the
missionaries, a few of whom are
■o be found wandering from village to vil
■v from the eastern extent of the settle
■lents down as far as Fort Churchill on the
■frest. These faithful, beloved men expect
Bio recompense ft ir their services, and if they
■id they wouldn’t get it, for there is not in
■li the country such a thing as money, the
Honly exchange being in fish, oil, or furs.
■ Whenever one of the tribe dies the rest of
■his family—meaning by that the entire
■settlement—stop work for the day and pre
■pare to bury him. If the settlement possesses
■such a thing as a dinner bell, and most of
■them do, the oldest man in the Tillage goes
■about from hut to hut and rings the bell in
■front of each until the occupants come out,
■both big and little, and falling into line,
I march after him. When the circuit has
■ been made, and big and little are all col
lated, a march is made for the Kirote, as it
■ iecalled, the village church, which consists of
■ about an acre of ground simply inclosed bva
■ wall of stonas near the middle of the cotn
■ munity. Into this little field go the entire
■ populace, and after chanting the virtues of
I the dead for some hours, the corpse is taken
■ iway on a skin rock and covered with ice
■ rnd snow in the common burial ground.
I The rest of the day is spent in rejoicing, and
I the next day, if the deceased was married.
I his better half makes another choice, and at
I the end oi a week if an agreement be come
I to. the dead is forgotten and the no longer
I sorrowing ones begin life over again.
A Vain Young 1 Man.
A. Galaige in London Society.
Something very different I linppened to
witness at the table d'hote of the ‘'Europa,”
hit flue hotel under the porticoes facing the
Royal Palace, across the main square (Plaza
Castello) in Turin.
The Prussian First Secretary of Legation,
' on Riegel, was on that night entertaining a
tarty of young friends from Berlin, travel
ing for pleasure and only stopping for two
lavs in town on their way to Rome.
It was, I forget for what reason, a gala
tinner at the hotel. The splendid salle a
jnanger was lighted up a giomo. The land
lord was present, with all his waiter's in their
Undertakers’ liveries of black coats and
white ties; the Germans and Swiss among
them being told off to the upper end of the
table in attendance upon Yon Riegel and his
Pients, only one of whom had not yet come
to muster.
This late arrival was Von Eisenried, a
tTuswan pur sang, a Yunker of high rank
and higher pretensions, with all the gifts
and acquirements that go to enhanco the
advantages of birth, except a proper knowl-
Wge of the world and its ways. There was
anil, as he came up, a little stir and bustle
unavoidable in the sitting down of a large
and motley company, and the young Baron,
"’horn Von Riegel was beckoning from
an place, was threading his way to him
when somebody laid a hand on his sleeve,
out rather tartly in German:
, B \‘.! ’ * sa y> can’t you tell me where lam
to sit?”
The Yunker drew back, dumbstruck for a
moment, but soon recovered from his amaze
f iV • , rose h* B foil height and tossed
eack his head, saying very stiffly:
-lehmen Hie nnch fur einen kellner?”
'“? you take me for a waiter?)
Ach neiul” (Oh, no!) stammered the
ii'anger just glancing at him and perceiv
h“Lv°Ty natural, not very unfrequent,
not the less unpurdonably awkward
mstake. And by way of a soothing apology
the offense, ho blurted out.
, *ur einen kellner, mein Herr—nnr
}“! uen Oboi keltner” (Not for a waiter, but
for the head-waiter).
it ’ l this the poor blunderer whisked him
off among the crowd of guests and was
°"t of sight. The wrathful Prussian
vvto- him, but at that moment
m Kiegel came up with coaxing words,
patned him away almost bodily, promis-
I h to stand by him it, after the feast, he wet
WTlan 1 r a Utlg oa that nido stranger for an
Pr .Jj' d ' n n , ‘ r was a sumptuous but hardly a
in "rtohlc offair. Von Eisenried fidgeted
nf Hl Khing deeply, muttering words
and scowling at tho whole
ol , t W afro* the table, unable to single
W the* Offender, yet brooding over the
sv2T;vTl*’ a H a K the right and left for
and lmrdly listening to Von
bj ( .,r !'.''' ho strove to pour oil on the trou
v.)i„., , aWR T: a hard task amid the titter in
temnsJi' 1 °ther friends and guests were
Bdu *K e ' aud which he was
j. at P>'cat pains not to join.
Rie-,1 i' mer .' vn * OVPr nt last, and Von
rext'of urrymg his leas e-taking from the
Ei.nri*t P w npan 7’ w,t out ’ ftllowe<l by
iM* T ' b v l a ls ' l eager, in quest of his
on his ,e YimbM| ' looked into every face
tlie ’ to the smoking-room,
■w reading -l oom, the robing-roow-aU in
vain. The Prussians had sat at tbMlßil
o' the tabic, a wav from the dqor The
stranger they wanted either
fore them, or was not to he ivodfi iaSL
Von Riegel, with unwearied laSSSttM
the baffled and still gloomy YofiSetoylff
arm, and walked with him to üBSEplKis
at the German Legation, w her* ha plied hun
with punch and choice HaTOML~ajP put
up with the poor man's i<PW|9hlß*i in
defatigable in his argumMtfe MtfLMtnwu
strances, urging that the have
been merely a purblind no
time even to look at hiiqSß9|HFas most
likely an ill-bred fellow, a fSMMMbe. a raw
student, an impudent hagHfßjL'Sbeggarly
newspaper correspondent—anyfierv, some
body below his contempt, whom no gentle
man could dream of calling to account.
All breath thrown away! Von Eisonried
listened with deference 'and seemed for a
moment won over; but the next he heaved
his deep sigh and came back to the charge
with that appeal w-hich he had so often
addressed to all his friend’s guests at the
table:
''Sehe ieh aus wie ein Obe kellner?” (Do I
look like a head-waiter?)—a question of
course, always met with the hackneyed com
pliments lie was fishing for.
At last poor Von Riegel’s patience was at
an end; and as the night advanced he sug
gested that it began to be time his friend
should resign himself to the disappointment
and understand that the affront, however,
huge it might seem to him, “must needs be
pocketed."
With this he rose, took up a bougie, and
showed the way down-stairs, and threw open
the door of the Legation, tendering his hand
with his good-by to his parting gue6t.
Eisenried took his friend’s hand; but
even as he pressed it. the stubborn sigh
swelled his breast, and out once more
came the old maudlin and now half-tipsy
appeal:
“Lieber Freund (dear friend), we are old
camarades; we are both Germans, both fail
men and true. lam sure you will not flat
ter me, you will be frank with me, won’t
you? Well, than, now tell me, I beg, Sehe
ich aus wie ein Oberkellner?” (Do I look like
a head waiter?)
Poor Von Riegel could stand it no longer.
That song had been dinned into his ears for
the last six deadly hours. He now shook off
his guest’s hand with a hasty “good-night,"
bundled him out of the door, shutting it
after him with a bang, and hurried back to
his rooms, giving free vent to his long
smothered wrath by a bitter laugh, a roar
ing laugh, peal on peal, with which the mar
ble vault of the Legation staircase rang
again, and all the time heartily ejaculating.
“Der Esel!” (The ass!)
Such is the way with most of us miserable
mortals. Why should not a Swiss head
waiter look like a German baron, or vice
versa l Is a waiter a dog, an ape, a nigger,
a Hottentot? Is it his fault if his master
dresses him like a gentleman?—if democracy
has done away with those good old times
when “the tailor made the man?”
Vanities of vanities! we respect clothes;
we worship bodies; we fancy we can still,
in all cases, trace a man’s descent from father
to son, forsooth, after all the mixture of
breeds, the freaks of fortune, and the in
stincts of natural selection since Adam!
