    THE AMERICAN
UNKNOWN LABRADOR.
A Tut Territory Wktrh T (ut4lM
Will KmImtbt t KrSf.
3 wo memben of the zoological
Mrey of I'anrU hve left IJuebeo
o one of the la pet, nuwt im. mrUnt
ad most perilous exploratory ur
jrt ever undertaken into what ia
io generally upoM.d to be the
wild, inhospitable territory in the
far north of Kastern Canadj. known
an the Ijil.rador peninsula. The ex
peditiou will bo alx-ent from civiliza
tion for m-arly two year, ani before
ita return to tjuobtvi hopes to have
olved tho enigma both of tho treat
LKe Mistassnii and of the cataract
of tht Hamilton river, conccrn'm
which such fa' uloua tale have been
told. It exi--ts to traverse the in
erior or l.abraJor from south to
liortb, as weil an from west- to east,
and to visit alike I npjava bay. in the
eitremo north, and liiolet and Ham
ilton inlets m the extreme ea.U.
The expedition, says the Boston
Herald, is led by A. I. Low of the
foologieal survey of Canada, and his
hief assistant ia I). I. Katoa. Mr.
Low has already visited and surveyed
Mistasslni lake, declaring it to be
about 100 miles in length, but his re
port has been disputed by other
Canadian surveyors, by the Indiana
who roam over the interior Rf this
ountry, and principally by W. II. IL
(Adirondack) Murray. to has the
tory of an EngJsh explorer, that ha
has recently found on tho Hamilton
river gigantic falls over L'OOOfoet high.
These alleged features of the great
Labrador peninsula will no doubt be
thoroughly examined by the expedi
tion, though the object of its mission
is rather to rep -ft upon tho course,
condition and chara 'tor of two vast
streams, the KastMuin river, running
weet into James bay, tho Hamilton,
running east in the same latitude
Into tho Haruilt inlet, which it is
proposed to mako portions of the
northern boundary of the prov
ince of Queboc. The change sug
gested will givo to tho proviuco an
additional strip of territory 250 miles
In width at its western extremity,
and including the whole of Luke
JJistassini and the Huport river and
surrounding country. Tho East
Main river, 80J miles from its mouth
and in the center of its co'irso, is
1,100 feet in width. Near tho source
of this river and not very far from
that of the Hamilton is Nichicoon
ost. where Indian hunters yearly
assemble with tho produce of their
chase, as well from Hudson and
Ungava bays as from tho shores of
Labrador and the St. Lawrence.
No white man has yet made the
journey mapped out for Messrs. Low
and Eaton, and few can imagine tho
dangers and difficulties they must
encounter in the interior of Labrador,
where the flies in summer are Jaeger
than horse flies aud bury their larv;e
deep in the flesh of the reindeer,
causing them to migrate from the
woodlands to the treeless, barren
wastes every year.
The 8'irveyors will winter with the
Eskim , probably lit Eort Chimo at
, Ungava bay, the most northerly fort
of the Hudson Hay company in East
ern America, whre in winter there
is but four hours daylight in twenty
four. Next year they will ascend the
Eokosak river from the fort into the
interior of the peninsula, and then
descend the Hamilton river to Ham
ilton inlet whence they expect to
find their shortest way home by
Hudson Bay company steamer from
the Labrador coa.st to London, and
thence across the . tlantie to Quebec.
Mot only is it surmised that the
great inland waters Labrador
abound in fresh water fish of com
merce, but the promoters of a pro
posed -ailway from lake St. John to
Mistalni. and thence to Hudson bay,
are a&xiously awaiting the report of
the expedition to judge of the possi
bility of connecting the great bay by
railway with Quebec and bringing
here the products of the northern
whale fisheries.
As an instance of the extent of
the c -'ry to be explored by Messrs.
Low and Eaton, it may be mentioned
that Moose Fort, on James bay, is as
far avsy from the easterly point of
the Labrador coast as it is from
Washington. It is a terra incognita,
as truly so as when it was, in popular
belief, the home of pigmies, of
dwarls, of giants, of headless men,
and semi-human monsters. It has
always been, as it were, beyond the
line of actual knowledge. Jacques
Cartier, the discoverer of Canada,
narrates that the Indian king,
Donnacona, told him that he saw
men there that did not eat, but who
lived on liquids; that in another
region were men who had but one
leg and thigh, with a very large foot,
two hands on the same arm, tho
waist extremely square, the breast
and head flat, and a very small
mouth.
In 1717 a young Eskimo girl v?as
captured in Labrador and seen in
Quebec in 1720 by Father Charlevoix,
to whom she said that in her country
she had seen men of monstrous size
resembling those of whom Cartier
wrote, and who were amphibious,
and could remain under water three
quarters of an hour at a time, so that
the Eskimo employed them to fish
up the fragments of ships lost on the
coast She also averred that around
Ungava bay was a people entirely
black, with large lips, a broad nose,
and straight hair; that these mon
were very wicked, and although
badly armed, having only knives and
axes, without any iron, they had
rendered themsolves a terror to the
Eskimo.
Nobody supposes that any of ths
people so described will bo discov
ered by Messrs. Low and Eaton, but
the result of their exploration is ex
pected to cast an interesting light
upon a mysterious and entirely un
known country, and the races of
people inhabitating It.
