miles, and vessels of 12 feet draught can get up 600 miles. The town is built on a pla- teau 50 feet above the sea level and gradually slopes down to the river to the eastward. The most conspicuous edifice is the Cathedral, round which the town is built. This structure is imposing in appearance, with a large west tower, having belfry and dome, but it is built of wood and is already showing signs of deterioration. At the back of the Cathedral is a large grass grown square, two sides of which are occupied by Barracks, Governor's House, and Police Station. There are few substantial houses in the town, except those used as public buildings or stores, and there is little trade except in fish, quantities of salmon being dried and cured here. In 1882 the population was 3,500, but since the naval and military head-quarters were transferred to Wladiwostock the place has declined in importance. Nicolajewsk is fortified and a considerable garrison is maintained there.
