Dmrni, Ang. 19. Kefore the departnre
of the WinBlow from Marqnctte n interest
ing TiBit was paid to the Lake Superior Mining
Company's iron mines, about fifteen miles in
the interior. Marquette it the only outlet
for the shipment of ore from the adjacent
mines, which, daring the present year,
has amounted to 2r0,000 tons, and
tefore the close of navigation
it is expected to reach 450,000 tons. Mar
quette is a bustling place, and has quite a
somber of business blocks, though that por
tion of the town was entirely consumed by
fire about two years ago. The Marquette
d Ontonagon Railroad Company has a most
substantial pier in the centre of Marquette,
on Which its tracks run, and by means of
hoots the vessels lying on either side can
be loaded with ore very expeditiously. It is
asserted that the Lake Superior region pro
duces one-fifth of the whole amount of iron
ore dug in the United States. The port being
elosed by ice during live months of the year,
and as there is no other outlet for the pro
duce of the mines, there is always a large
collection of vessels waiting for cargoes dur
ing the shipping season. Dv-'ng the stay of
the excursionists there was a constant de
mand for Indian curiosities and photographs
of the various objects of interest in the
vicinity, including the prominent points of
the Pictured Rocks.
The Winslow left Marquette on "Wednes
day evening for Bayfield, the next stopping
place, which was reaohed on Thursday even
ing, in a chilly rain-storm, which again
caused some uneasiness among the lady pas
sengers, arising from the motion of the boat .
'While at dinner, Dr. Vinton, in behalf of
the passengers, gave expression to their ap
preciation of the munificent hospitality that
Lad conceived and carried out the ex
cursion, and returned . thanks to
Mr. Evans, their host. Brilliant speeches
were also made by Judges Brewster and Pax
eon. General Morehead, in responding to a '
toast to the telegraph, paid a tribute to Henry
O'Reilly, the pioneer of telegraph enterprises
in the West. In consequence of the storm
the boat remained at Bayfield all night and
started fof Duluth early this morning, the
sun shining Rightly, but the temperature
being so decid dly cold that a stove was pat
np in the cabii and the warmth was very
enjoyable.
Duluth was reached about 4 o'clock, and a
crowd of several hundred persons assembled
at the landing and received the excursionists
with boisteroxis cheers, which were responded
to by all on board. The most prominent
building along the Lake front is a grain ele
vator nearly ready for operation. An exten
sive railroad depot is also located on the
Lake front, where three vessels were dis
charging their cargoes of railroad iron for
the Northern Pacifio Railroad, and the
Winslow is freighted with five hun
dred tons for the same road. Just
above . the grain elevator a breakwater has
been constructed, extending COO feet into the
lake. A narrow tongue of solid land extends
out into the lake for several miles. This is
called Minnesota Point, and for about half a
mile this is covered with buildings. Superior
avenue, which runs parallel with the lake
chore, is lined with stores and dwellings for
at least a mile. On this avenue is located
the Clark House, a well-kept hotel capable of
accommodating 200 guests. The avenue is
mostly graded, and when completed will con
vert this into a most delightful drive. The
cross streets are also improved with dwell
ings, and liberally scattered in every direc
tion. The citizens claim a population of
4000, and appearances indicate that their
estimate is not an extravagant one.
Duluth is the growth of the last two years,
and the increase during the past year has
been enormous. It is the depot of two rail
roadsthe Lake Superior and Mississippi
Railroad, now in operation to St. Paul, and
the Northern Pacifio, the construction of
which is proceeding with great rapidity.
The formal celebration of the opening of
the Lake Superior and Mississippi Road takes
place on Tuesday and Wednesday next, the
features of which are to be an excursion of
the State dignitaries and those of St. Paul
over the road, an illumination, an excursion
on the lake, and a ball at the Clark House.

CHINESE DOCTORS.
Thtir Pharmacopoeia comprises one thou
sand and twelve different medicines, of
which one hundred and thirty-two kinds are
of mineral origin. Grasses and vegetables
(including roots, leaves, flowers, and seeds)
furnish three hundred and eighteen kinds;
and these are the only drugs which have any
pretensions to the respect of western medical
men. Trees furnish one hundred and seventy,
seven medicines; while from the human body
thirty-nine different medicinesjarejderived, of
which the following only can be mentioned:
Hair, cut fine and used in plasters; for in
ternal use, woman's milk, dandruff, teeth
filings, ears, bile, sweat, parings of the finger
and toe-nails burnt to ashes, ashes of the
frontal bone, moustaches and blood, the gall
and other things unfit to mention. The medi
cines derived from animals are 4J4 in num
ber, and comprise dragon's bones, teeth
and horns, musk ox bezoar (a concretion
found in the stomach of that animal;, bear s
gall and ivory; glue made from the hides
of deer or mares; sheep's milk, the oil
of milk and mare's milk; the hoofs an!
thighs of white or bay horses; bull's manure;
horns of the chamois, deer, and rhinoceros;
tigers' claws and eyes; dogs' gall, heart,
brains, teeth, skull, blood, and so cn, includ
ing, as in the case of "human" medicines,
many articles which cannot be .named pub.
licly. From bugs, worms, snakes, shelldnh,
turtles, flies, etc., ninety-nine kind of medi
cine are compounded; from fowls and birds
thirty-four kinds. Fruits furnish forty, the
cereals thirty-eight, and the cabbage, melon,
and turnip sixty-two kinds of drags; and
the list might be greatly extended. One
medicine w&ch appears to have its origin in a
avaperstitierm belief is bread soaked in the
blood of a decapitated criminal, which is dried
find mlnrrrl to powder. It is administered for
those diwwtee of the etomnch in whioh all
food and drink are rejected as noon swal
lowed. Acupuncture (pricking with a needle)
is the favorite, and indeed almost the only,
Rrngicol operation practised by the medical
frautitioners of China and Japan. It is per
ormed by plunging cold or red-hot uileer
needlos into the muscular portions of the
body, the only saience of the operator con
sisting in knowing the precise spot where
they should be inserted. This curious per
formance has been an essential part of native
practice from the remotest antiquity, and
some forty years ago wan, at the recommenda
tion of travelers to China, tried by many
French and other European doctors. As it did
in one or two capes afford relief, various
hypotheses were started to account for its
curative power. Some imagined that it af
forded a conductor for the escape of an un
due accumulation of the eleotrio fluid at the
seat of disease. But it was soon found to be
useless in the majority of cases, the few in
which it did good being of a nature that
would have succumbed to any oonnter-irri-tating
treatment, and it soon fell into entire
disuse. The means adopted for acquiring a
correct knowledge of where th t.. Jle may
be inserted are a curious exny l j of misplaoed
Chinese ingenuity. They have designated on
the human body three hundred and sixty
seven points, each having a particular
name of its own, acoording to its supposed
relation to the internal parts; and in order to
practioe accurately they have had small cop
per figures constructed on which very small
pinholes are made at the positions answering
to these points on thelive subject. The whole
figure is then pasted over with paper, and the
needle student exercises himself daily in
E ricking for the holes, until he can, without
esitation, place the point of his needle on
the exact spot occupied by each. When the ne
cessary skill is required the operator becomes
ludicrouslv enamored of his art, and is ready
to perforate his fellow-creatures for any con
ceivable malady.
THE GJtAyj) LAMA OF THIBET.
The most interesting paper in the last num
ber of the Royal Asiatic Society's Journal,
by Mr. W. F. Mayer, of the British Consular
servioe in China, dispels much of the mys
tery which has enveloped the Lamaistio
hierarchy of Thibet. Mr. Mayer's materials
are drawn from the official reports of a former
Chinese Commissioner at Lhassa, whioh de
scribes the ceremonials attendant upon the
selection and installation of a new Dalai
Lama. He says:
"In the fourteenth century after Christ the
religion of Thibet was Buddhism more than
half obscured by Indian Sivaistn and indige
nous Turanian superstitions. Caste and other
Brahminicol institutions flourished side by
side with monastic celibacy and the essential
observances of tho Buddhist creed. The
Ssakia hierarchy, so called from their seat of
government, was a priestly sovereignty feuda
tory to the Mongol conquerors of China. In
the early part of the fifteenth century (1418
1470) a young monk named Tsungk'aba
emerged from an obscure oonvent somewhere
upon the China frontiers and began to de
nounce the corruptions which had crept into
Buddhism. Clad in the yellow robes sacred to
Buddha, he went from place to plaoe preaching
the pure doctrines of Buddhism. Such was
his success that before his death the "Yellow
Church" had taken the place of the corrupt
faith, and the red-clothed Ssakia dynasty had
been expelled from the kingdom. The old
sect still lingers under the designation of the
Red Church in parts of Thibet and Mongolia.
There were many points in Tsungk aba's
teaching which resembled in a striking man
ner the dogmas and ritual of the Roman
Church, and there is bo doubt that European
missionaries had penetrated into Thibet about
the time of his appearance. When Tsung
k'aba died he bequeathed his authority,
spiritual and temporal, to his two disciples,
laying upon them the command that they
should be born again, generation after gene
ration, to practise the doctrines of the Great
Conveyance. The soul of Tsungb'aba him
self is believed to have passed into the elder of
the two. Hence arose the double hierarchy.
That of the elder Lama was called Dalai
or 'Ocean.' The other was known as the
Panshen Erdeni or 'Precious Teacher.' This
two-fold division of power has still been
maintained. Mr. Mayer would distinguish
the one as the 'Head of the Church," the
other as the 'Primate;' but no accurate, paral
lel can be drawn from any other system. The
Pan6hen Erdeni, though inferior in both
spiritual and secular authority to the Dalai
Lama, is more completely abstracted from
worldly affairs, and, therefore, accounted
more sacred . than his ' co-regent.
His residence is on Tashi Lumbo,
the Mountain of Good Fortune, while the
Dalai has his residence upon Mount Potala
a name, doubtless, connected with Pattala,'
the country of Sakyamuni's ancestors. Dis
tinguished laymen are sometimes honored
with the title of Nomen Han or Prince of the
Church. The next grade of importance is
the JIutukcIitu or saints, about 100 in num
ber, who would probably correspond to the
College of Cardinals in the Roman hierarchy.
They possess the gift of re-embodiment, and
are chosen in the same way as the Lamas."
The Commissioner Meng Pao describes at
full length the selection and installation of
the Dalai Lama in 1841.
An Interesting Reuc. We were presented
a few days sinoe with a relio which will be
regarded by savants and archaeologists with
great interest. It is no less than a pipe ex
quisitely and elaborately carved in alto re
lievo, with the totems of three of the most in
fluential tribes of the Iroquois or Six Na
tions. The bowl of the pipe (also elegantly
carved) is supported by the totems of the
Mohavk, Oneida, and Onondaga nations,
viz., the Beaver, the Bear, and the1 Otter.
The history of this pipe is, perhaps, worthy
of some notice. It was dug up at the Fish
nouse on the Sacandaga river, N. Y. the
old hunting grounds of the Six Nations by
Mr. William Markham, while he wai hoeing
potatoes. Mr. Markham is a great, great grand
son of Governor William Markham, who, it
ill be remembered, came over with William
Penn, and was the first Governor of the
Colony of Pennsylvania under that personage.
If seems, therefore, to be poetic
justice that a descendant of the man
who was identified with the Indians by
various acts of kindness towards that much
abused people should dig up and thus per
petuate a relic which proves the advance the
Aborigenes had made in the fine arts. We
ouredveK novae years sinoe dug up on the
shore of Lake George a pipe cut into the
form of a raccoon, tut, although we then
thought it to be a fine fcpeciiaen of work, it
bears no comparison with this relic of Mr.
MaikLam's. -
Mr. Markham, who has recently moved to
BergeD, N. J., has a number of relios of
similar character, which bo is always willing
to show to those interested n things of this
nature. VtMege Htviae,
