' The following is an extract from a letter from Dr. Frietsche to Dr. W. A. P. Martin, of Pekin :^ 

 " I remained more than six months at a small place half way between tliu lake Hanka and Vladivostok, 

 near the ruins of the town marked on the Mautchoo maps under the name of Foordan. The vilLige lies in 

 the broad valley of the river Sooi-fun,a low range of hills separating it from the lake Hanka; on the south it 

 is also protected by a wooded range of hills, across which the river Sooi-fun runs through a narrow pass. I 

 arrived at Foordan on the 10-22 July, 1S70. In this season the S. E. winds reigu in the country, and they 

 bring with them rain clouds. Rain was frequent in the Sooi-fun valley, but was not accompanied by thick 

 fogs, as it is iu the country near the sea. The wind was not so strong as on the sea-shore, or on Lake Hanka, 

 wliich is not protected by hills from the S. E. The rainy season continued, with some changes, up to the end 

 of autumn ; but iu October, and up to the middle of November, the weather was generally fine, warm and 

 mild ; although there was a slight fall of snow sometimes. In December N. W. winds began to blow, bring- 

 ing severe cold with them — the temperature was as low as — 30° Re. Still in the Foordau region tlie winter 

 winds were not so continuous as in the Valdivostok and Hanka. The next year the southerly winds began 

 early in April, hut they were also intermixed witli northerly winds,"
