The I'rieelesi Thing*. Those are talgnr things we pay for. bother stones for crowns of king?; While th? precious and the peerl-i?& are i: priced symbolic things. Common debts are scored nnd canceled, weighed and measured ont (or gold; But the debts from men to age#, their account is never told. Always see, the noblost nations keep their highest prize unknown; Obaronea's marble lion frowned above unlettered stone. ISalaklava? Marathon andwho shall mete the worth of these ? ."ball we huckster with our lifeboats that defy the leaping seas ? Ah. the Greeks knew 1 Came their victors honored from the sacred came?, I nder arches red with roses, Cashed to hear their shouted names; Bee their native cities take them, breach the wall to make a gate! What supreme reward is thei-* who bring snch honors to their State ? In the forum stand they proudly, take their prizes from :he priest; little wreaths of pine and pareley on their naked temple pressed! We in late da>s are lower? Ay ! a manful stroke is made, And we raise a purst> to pay it? making manliness a trade Sacrifice itself glows venal?surely Midas will subscribe; And the fhallow souls are satisfied when worth accepts the bribe! But o'n hero, amid the markets, there are things they dare prize; Dollars hide their sordid faces when they meet anointed eyes. Lovers do not seek with jewels; flowers alone can plead for them; And ono fragrant memory cherished is fa dearer than a gem. Statesmen steer the nation safely; artists pa?-s the burning test, And their country pays them proudly?with a ribbon at the breast. When the soldier saves the battle, wraps the flag around bis heart, Who shall desecrate his honor with the values of the mart ? From his guns of bronze we hew [a piece, and carve it as a cross; For the gain he gave was pricelees, as unpriced TtUlUU US UIC IU33. When the poet sings the love song, and the eong of life and death, tfaking millions cease their weary toil and wait with wondering breath; When he gilds the mill and mine, inspires the slave to rise and dare; Lights with love the hopeless garret, tolls the tyrant to beware; When he steals the pang from j/overty, with meanings new and clear, Reconciling pain and peace, and bringing blessed visions near; His reward? Nor cross nor ribbon, but all others high above, They may wear their splendid eymbols-'he has earned the people's love! ?John Boyle O'Reilly. ' I Mrs, Symington's Bargain. All women we are told have their weaknesses, and Mrs. Stanhope Symington was a china maniac, as are most people to some degree in this aesthetic nineteenth century of the world. Bat Mrs. Symington excelled in the matter. She frnald prowl in second-hand stores, penetrate into the cavernons recesses of tenement-houses, drive long distances into the country to old homesteads where Bhe had heard vague rumors con oerning ' flariDg blue," "old green glaze," "butterfly yellow" and "genuine old India wares." She would remorselessly turn the choicest pieces of modern brio-a-brac from her tables to make way for spoutless tea-pots, cracked bowls and noseless jags. She crowded her drawing-room with brackets, shelves and cabinets for the accommodation of ancient plate?, which she called "plaques," and pitcheis, which s>he rechristened "vases." Mr. Symlngtoa, a meek little man with limp yellow-white hair, a flat nose and colorless eyes like dim glass marbles, began to tiud it no slight tasS to make his war through his own house without breakage or misfortune. "I wish there was not snch a thing as old china in the world," he lamented upon one particular occasion, after he had knocked a hamlHess cup from a Iripod draped in olivo velvet. " Stanhope," reproved his wife, not without severity, " would you retard the progress of modern civilization? This cup, fragile as it may seem, represents an era in decorative history."' "Well, it won't represent it much longer," observed Mr." Symington, as he gathered up the fragments with something very like vindictiveness in his faded eyes. "But, Stanhopa." cried his wife, "what are you going to do with those pieces?" " Throw 'em into the ash barrel, jo course," said Mr. Stanhope, spiritlessly. Bnt Mrs. Symington rescued them from his grasp with a shriek of apprehension. "Are jon mad, my dear?" she ejaculated. " I can mond them with a little cement and a great deal of time; and even then I wouldn't take twenty dollars for this exquisite cup. And I have been thinking, Stanhope?" "Well, my dear," said the luckless iconoclast, looking dolefully at his finger which had been cut with one of Ihe pieces of brosen crockery, " what have you been thinking?" " That.I shonid like to go up into Maine next week," said the lady, insinuatingly. "into Maine? In midwinter?" cchrtd her amazed eponse, openiug the j dim eyes very wide indeed. " To see Aunt Grizzel," explained ! Mrs. Symington?"my Annt Grizzel ! Grumpton, you know, at Wild River." : " Humph f' remarked Mr. Syming j ten. bandaging his tinker with his ! pocket handkerchief. " I didn't know j that you cared so very particularly ! about your Annt Grizzel." "My dear," said Mrs. Symington, j merging her specch into a mysterious ' whisper, " I've just remembered, all of; a sudden as it were, that she has a set ; ' of very old flaring blue china. She j i must have. It belonged to her motl er j ' before her; and how I've forgotten't all these years I'm f-u-e I can't imagine. ' 1 Even now I shouldn't have recalled it! to my memory, I suppose, if I hadn't j chanced to see, at Mrs. Hepburn's j afternoon tea yesterday, the darlingist j l'ttle egg-shell cups, with bridges and ; pagodas and wi'-low trees all over 'em, exactly such hh Auut Grizzel's mother ; used to ha^e. Thru it came to me like a flash of li. l.1i>ing?Aunt Grizztd's cbino!' "Probably it'a all broken by this ; time." gloomily suggtsted her bus band. "Nonsense!" said Mrs. Symington, j briskly. 4*Anut Grizssy never broke anything in her life. She is carefulness itself; anil "p there in Maine, you know, tbey don't have clumsy waitresses to fling things about. X.j, no ; yon may depend tbat she has it nil safe and I sound in one of those odd little threecornered cupboards of hers. A treasure, Stanhope, a perfcct treasure. Money : wouldn't buy such a sot as that; a hundred years old, if it's a day. So, if 7ou won't mind, mv dear, I'll just run up to Maine, atd .ieo about it." "I)u as vou please, Arabeila," said Mr. JSymiDHtoD, lesigtedly. Ho knew tbat Mrs. Sjmiugtcn generally did as . she pleased, and be saw 110 especial advantage in debating tLe question. "Thanks, d?ar; ho kind of you!' j' uttered Mrs Symington. ,lAnd of conise I can't, go to the polar regions : entirely unprotected, bo I'll order i one of those comfortable seal dol- i mans that everybody i* wearing now, and a new plush hat with a cluster of ' ostrich tips. One must go dressed like other people; and if you can Rive me iwentj-nve or lUJri-jr ULMiUin i umu i?oj ; Aunt Grizzy will let me have the Bet ! for th&t (she don't brow the valne of old chinn, poor thing!) and tbe jour ney won't be more than thirty dollars ! both warn, if I go by 6ta, including a , btateriiom." 'It appears tome," paid Mr. SymiDg-! ton, difccourawingly, "that thin is a; good deal of a wild goose chase, Roing -dancing up to tho northern boundaries ?t Maine at this time of year for an old set of trumpt ry china which probably didn't cost len dollars to start witb." " Ob, Stanhope, it did 1" cried the lady, indignantly. " It was real India i ware, imported, without paying a dollar -| of duty, by an old sea captain in the ' India trade, expressly for my grand- . mother Grumpton. And besides you ; are so groveling and prosaic in your j ideas. As if the original cost of a thing ! of this nature signifies! It s the josthetic | value that wo look at, don't you see?" " Ah 1" said Mr. Symiugton. " Well, ! if you must go. you must go, I suppose; ] and of course I shall have to give you a check for what money you are likely to want." And Mr. Symington sighed deeply and went upstairs to get a piece of court-plaster for liis cut finger. Mrs. Symington went to Wild Rive', in the noithern boundaries of Maine, where tho pine forests -were tbatched with snow, and the ioicleg tinkled in tho woods of a moonlight night like fo many castanets gone mad. She made tho greater part of the vojage by sea, and was consequently very seasick, for the water was rough and the gale tempestous. " I will come back by land," sbe said to herself, as she sat in the little hotel at Portland, and viewed her green and yellow complexion with a shudder. " Money wouldn't induce me to risk my life again in that horrid steamer, where one is bnffeted and seesawed about on waves that are as high as a house. The palace-car fare will be something of an extra expense, and I shall lose my return ticket by steamer, but I'm Bure Mr. Symington won't grudge it to me when he hears how I've been pitched and tumbled about on the ocean in peril of my life." Andshe^put on her black brocaded silk, her new plumed hat, and the seal dolman, and took the northward-bound train, resolved to present an imposing appearance to Aunt Grizzy Grumpton when she should reach Wild River station. It was very cold?a dull, bitter,leaden cold?with the ground frozen like a rock, the streams bound in ice, the sky gray and bitter, with an inrffable gloom. Aunt Grizzel Grumpton lived in a little one-storied house on the top of an uncompromising hill, v*here a solitary cedar tree was twisted around like a corkscrew with the forca cf the east wind, and the few lean sheep huddled behind the rocks in shivering groups, picturesque, but far from comfortable. And even after they had come in sight of the old building whose one coat of red paint had long ago been worn away by the suns and rains of well-nigh a century, Mrs. Symington had serious doubts whether the onehorse sleigh in which she was jerked and jolted up the incline would not bo blown sheer away by the rush of the tempest before they could reach their destination. However, it wasn't. And once in Aunt Grizzy's cottage things were very comfortable. There was no widethroated chimney, filled with mossfringed logs, such as the fancy of city dwellers is apt to depict in the solitary farmhouse. People in Maine know better than that. But there was an immense cook stove, which heated the room to an atmosphere of eighty odd degrees; the craoks in the window sashes were pasted over with brown paper, and sand bags were laid on the top ledges, while a double rag carpet covered the floor, and a wood-box, heaped to the very top, stood in the angle of the chimney piece. Aunt Grizzy's dress was of blue homespun flannel, and she wore a worsted hood pulled over her ears, and a little plaid shawl folded over her breast, and she was addicted to the use of snuff, and said " Hey ?" whenever any one ad- ; dressed her. j 0'' ooul Armf \ 1UJ WUDOUJ OMAVt iAUUW VWUUJt I Well, I'm free to own that I think a deal of that cheeny. But I don't know, ! Niece Arabella, how you came to hear of j it.'"It is an heirloom in our family, Aunt Grizzel," said Mrs. Symington, i exerting herself to speak loudly. " Hey ?" said Aunt Grizzy, with her hand placed sounding-board fashion ; behind her ear. ' Every one must have heard of it," : said Mrs. Symington, at tho risk of j breaking a blood-vessel in her throat, j Aunt Grizzy's wrinkled face fairly : beamed. * Well, I calculate it ain't ! absolutely ugly," said she. "Butstill, j if you've really set your heart on it, i ftiece Arabella? But it ain't unpacked. I I always put it away this time o' year when ' there ain't no tea parties given." " Oh, never mind that," said Mrs. i Symington, her heart leaping within her ' at this easy conquest of the fort. " It j will be all the more convenient for me j to carry it. People always keep such j treasures put away in secret places." 44 Hey ?"6aid Aunt Grizzy, and Mrs. Symington repeated her words. 41 Oh, there a'n't no secret about it!" said Aunt Grizzy,as she turned the hissing pausBges in the pan. 44 Only I hain't bad time to overhaul it since you've j been here." "Naturally?" interrupted Mrs. Svmington. "But I suppose it is all in good condition ?" "Sartinly, eartinly," said Aunt Grizzy. 44 You can look at it yourseif j if you like, Niece Arabella." 44 Oh, that is not at all necessary," said Mrs Symington. 44 But now as to the price, Aunt Grizzy ?" "I ain't one to haggle with my rela- . tions," said Aunt Grizzy, giving the fry- j ing pan a shake over the blazing sticks. "Set your own pricc, Arabella, and if I don't like it I'll make bold to say so." "Do you think, Aunt Grizzy," hesi- I tated the city lady, "that twenty-five dollars would be a reasonable compensation for it ?" "Well, yes," said Annt Grizzy. "It ? never cost me that, because?" "No, of course not," hurriedly inter- , posed Mrs. Symington, and she pro-! duced the twenty-five dollars, all in gold half eagles, with the exultant feel- j ing of one who has picked a precious j diamond out of the dust. " But I should wish yo'i to feel that I had dealt. fairly with you in a matter like this." " Well, I hain't no reason to complain," said Aunt Grizzy. " Some folks fancies checny. I don't. A plate's a plate to me, and a cup's a cup, and I you're kindly welcome to my set if you've took a notion to it." Mrs. Symington went home the next : day, through a whirlwind of snow, hav- j ing been fed upon pork and sausages, sausages and pork, at every meal since her arrival, and retaining a very vivid recollection of tho Maine winds and j tempests. " I don't think I'd go back there j again, even for a set of old china." said \ Mrs. Symington, as she seated herself on the velvet cushions of the palace car and shrank shiveringly inside of her 1 seal dolman aud fleece lined fur gloves. " Aunt Grizzel will never die a natural death; she'll bq blown awav, like Mother Hubbard." But all these petty tribulations were forgotten as a thing out of mind on the brilliant January morning on which, in front of the sea-coal fire in her ovn cozy drawine-room, she unpacked tho coarse wooden box wherein wero concealed the priceless treasures of Aiiut Grizzy Grumpton'H china. "Don't touch thero, Stanhope," said 6be, with a small shriek of dismay. "Men are so dreadful careless. Oh, here they are on the top, all wrapped in separate pieces of piper." " Eh?" said Mr. Svmington, founding by with a hammer and screw-driver brandished in either hand. " Are these ?antiques ?" "Good graciom me!" gasped Mrs. Symington. " What can this possibly mean ?" For the china which she unwrapped i from its coverings of coarse brown pa ! per was a cheap and common stylo, such as is associated in the mind with tea chromos, gaudy lithographs and ; salesmen of the Hebraic persnr rioii? white, with a band of imitation gold around each piece, and a coarse flower j sprawling below, as if it had been laid 1 on with a miniature whitewash brush. "This is never my Grandmother Grnmpton's old china," said Mrp. Symington, bursting into tears, and , pushing the hideous atrocities away with a force which cracked two plates. "I'll write to Aunt Grizzy at once, anrl | this misunderstanding shall be cleared , up." In the course of time an answer came j from Wild Iviver, stiffly written in pale ! ink, and conveying in its tout ensemble ! the gemral impression that Aunt Grizzy , nau wrostiea wnu k as it it nau oeon a fit of the Asiatic cholera. "Dear Neice" (it Kaid)??" With I Love and duty I take up my Pen to infcrm You that the China is all ri^ht Bo't from ttnefly & Pipkia, in Boston, s last November, at E ghfc (88) the Set, | to bo transported at my own Dammage. | As for mv Mother's old 8et, witch j Captain Babeock bro't from Calcutta in ; the Year 1796.

So you have the Best Bargain. With love, I remain, Your Aunt to Command, " Giuzzel Gbumpton." "Ah!" said Mr. Symington, who had 1 been listening intently to the contents ! of this much blotted and besmeared | piece of manuscript, sealed with Aunt 1 Grizzy's thimblo top, and still retaining ' a subtle odor of fried sausages and grid! die c ikes. "A seal dolman at threo huudred dollars, a thirteen-dollar hat, ' a pair of tifteen-dollar fnr gloves, a fifty-dollar journey and a twenty-five; dollar investment, all for a .?et of china | which you can buy anywhere on the !

"There, there, Bella, don't fret," said j j her husband, kindly. "Let the thing ! go for what it is worth. Forget it." " B it I can't help f-f fretting," sobbed Mrs. Symington.

"Gently, my dear, gently," said her I husband. "-Now you are going too far. I Aunt Grizzel was honest enough.

Mpwk anil NoH-n lor \\ omen. The New York Young Women's Chris| tian association found positions for ; 1,123 persons last year. Aristocratic Russian ladies continue wearing half-mourning-that is to nay, : white, gray, pale yellow and light blue. A dressmaker of Leeds, England, was ' seriously injured by keeping threads of i silk in her mouth, because it had a ; sweet taste. The taste was due to sngarof-lead used in coloring. Flower pots in shapes that are noth ing if not absurd are in use in Paris just now. Wheelbarrows, books, boots and | baskets borne on the shoulders of peas- J ants are among the novelties. According to Solan the engagement i I ring was originally one form of the [ j oreli or hand-geld, a small sum of money paid by the bridegroom to the ' i bride's father to bind the contract of! ; purchase. Ladies who have leisure and are j gifted in fashioning pretty trifles of lace, muslin and ribbon, can make, at a j i trifling expense, all the dainty ac- ! j cessories of the toilet?jabots, scarfs, j collars, ruffles for the wrists and neck, i and caps. ' Miss Julia Test, of Richmond, Ind., I has just recovered a watch lost on a ' j Pullman sleeper three years ago. In j : rebuilding the car the workmen dis- ' I covered it wedged In a corner of the j berth, where it had escaped the notice ! of the porters. j A new invention as a preventive of ] neuralgia or rheumatism is a pine-wool j vest which fits the body closely.

Solid jet crowns are on new capotes, j PJaited puffd make effective tabliers. ' Scotch ginghams are now offered for sale. Gold lace is coming into favor as i trimming. J The coachman's cape of black fur is j more in vogue than ever. Black balayeuses of lawn and lace su- ' persedo white laca plaitings in dark j dresseB. Trellis work of beads trims bonnet i crowns with large beads to match on i the brim. Triangle-shaped openings in the neck j of bodices are likely to supersede those j cut square. Colored &tones mounted with dia- j monds are more fashionable than en? | the sets of diamonds. Pink crape bail dresses garnished witn ruffles ana coquille3 of cream white lace and clusters of crushed roses and foliage aro exquisitely beautiful. Square neckerchiefs of colored lawn, lavender, blue or rose, are edged with ?v>q nam VnlenrlprinpR lafifls that make email figures and feathery edges. Chestnut blossoms, laburnum, snow- j drops and delicate fern leaves "all j sprinkled with dew," made.of fine cut | crystals, are the corsage and coiffure bouquets par excellence with rich even- j ing toilets. There are few novelties in hose. One ! style, a pair of black silk stockings, has i imitation buttons and buttonholes \ worked up tho outside. Worn with i low Oxford house shoes the effect is I that of an ordinary walking boot. Brocades, with peacock feathers for a design, are exhibited in new and gorgeous pattern3. The heavy groundwork of white or tinted satiu is covered with an interlacing of these brilliant feathers, wrought in silver, green ani gold. Eitremely long-tailed jackets are ; worn. They are cut away very much j like a gentleman's dress co;it, reaching : to the back of the kneeB usually. These jackets are made of brocade and worn over velvet skirts, or of dark green : over skirts of flush to match. ! < A (Jreat Naphtha Fire. 1 Although tho existence of the naph- , tha springs in tho neighborhood of j ] Baku, Rusfiia, has beeu known for cen- ! 1 turies, it is only within the last ten I ' Years that measures have been taken for j realizing their production, by using it j for lighting purposes.

I GUITEAU SENTENCED. To be flanged on the Thlrtioth ot Jane. A comparatively umall crowcl was present in the Washington criminal conrt to hear Judga Cox'p decision in tho application of Guiteau'a oouiiAol for a now trial. Ouiteau came in Juietlv and took his seat at tho trial table, udge Cox rofntsod tho application for a new trial, uajing in effect that no significance was attached to tho finding of tho newspaper in tho room occupied bv the jury, as any friend of tho prisoner could havo put it there; that the affidavit of John W. Guiteau as to the autographs of jnrora found on tho newspaper was of doubtful competency, inasmuch as his r?f fVin'v tsriiinfr rniint hn.vn hnen acquired specially lor the purpose of qualifying him &? an shiant; that even wro it admitted that tho paper had been found iii the jury-room with writing on it actually done by jurors, tho only e fleet of that would bo to raise a suspicion or a probable inferenco that the contents of tho paper wero brought to the notice of tho jury, but that was a suspicion and an inferenco that might bo repelled; that new evidence would bo merely cumulative and would not affect tho verdict. In conclusion, Jndgo Cox said: "From all the papers proBontod I am unablo to find any reason to grant tho motion, which is therefore overruled." Mr. Scovillo- I would like to note an exception to the ruling of the court. Colonel Corkhill?Your honor, it now becomes my dutyMr. Scovillo?One moment, please; I would like to lilo in due form tho motion which I referred to yotterdav. Guitcau called out: "if your honor please, I desiro to ask if there is any motion that I ought to make to reserve my rights." Mr. Scovillo tried to prevent his speaking, but Gnitoau was violent and uncontrollable. ' ! am going to talk, too," he shouted. "Iam here, and I don't propose to leave this matter to von. I have my opinion of you aa a lawyer. You have been doing well, but your theory is wrong. Your theory is too small. You convicted me with your jackass theories and consummated nonsense. I don't propose to have your theory prevail. (To the bailiffs, who wero endeavoring to suppress lrim)?I. will not bo still for you nor for anybody else." Wtiile Judge Cox was informing Mr. Scovillo as to tho rubs of practico applicable to the filing of his exceptions, Guitcau broko out in wild abuse. " \ou keep your moutli still," he screamed. " I am doing* this matter mysolf. You convicted mo by your wild theory and con 1 .11 ? binnmuiu amiiuiu tuaiaiwi nu >uiuu(,u. Colonel Corkliill?It is now my duty to aak for tbc sentenco of tho court. Judge Cox (to the prisoner)?Stand up. Have you anything to say why sentence should not now be passod upon you ? Guitcau (atili sitting)?I aal: your honor to {(oatpono tho tentence as long as possible. Judgo Cox?Stand up. IIovo you anything to sav why sentence should not now be pronounced upon you ? The prisoner then aroso, pale, but with lips compressed, aud desperate repolntion in his expression. In a low and deliberate tone he began, but soon his manner became wild and violent, and pounding upon tho table, he delivered himself of the following harangue: " I am not guilty of the charge set forth in the indictment. It was God's act, not mine, and God will take care of it, and don't let tho American people forget it. Ho will take caro of it, and every olHcer of this government from tho executive down to tuat marshal, taking in every man on that jury and every member of this bouch, will pay for it; and the American nation will roll in b'ood if my body goes into tho ground and I am hung. __ "The Jews put the despieed Galilean into the grave. For tho timo they triumphed, but at hie deotruction of Jerusalem, forty years afterwaiii, tho Almighty got even with them. I am not afraid of death. I am hero as God's man. Kill mo to-morrow if you want. I am God's man, and I have been from the start." Judgo Cox then proceeded to pass sentence, addressing the prisoner a3 follows: " You have been convicted of a crime so terriblo in its circumstances and bo far-reaching in its results that it has drawn upon you the horror of tho whole world and the execrations of your countrymen. " The excitement produced by such an offeose made it no easy task to stcure" for you a fair and impartial trial, but you havo had the power of the United States troasury and of the government in your service to protect your person from violence, and to procure evidence fiom all parts of the country. You havo had aB 'air and impartial a jury as ever assembled in a court of justice. You havo been dofended by counsel with a zeal and devotion that merits the highest oncomium, and I certainly have do^e my best to secure a fair presentation of your defouso. Notwithstanding all this you have been found guilty. It would have been a comfort to many people if tho verdict of the jury had established tho fact that your act was that of an irresponsible man. It would have left tho pcoplo tho satisfying belief that the nritvw. nf nnlifieoI Hiuni-inntiiin wa* Hnmnthini? entirely foreign to the institutions and civilization of our country: but the result has denied them that comfort." Tho country will aecopt it 8S a fact that that crime can bo committed, and the court will have to deal with it with tho highost penalty known to tho criminal code, to eerve as an example to others. Your career has been so extraordinary that peoplo might well at times havo doubted your Banity. But one cannot but believe that" when tho crime was committed you thoroughly understood tho nature of the crime and its consequences [Guiteau ? 1 was acting as God's man], and that you had moral sense and conscience enough to reoognize the moral iniquity of such an act." Prisoner?That's a maiter of opinion. "Your own testimony shows that you recoiled with horror from tho idea. You say that you prayed against it. You say that you thought it might be prevented. This shows that your conscience warned you against it; but by the wretched sophistry of your own mind you worked yourself up against the protest of your own conscience. ' What motive could have induced you to this act must bo a matter of conjecture. Probably men will think that some fanaticism or & morbid dosire for self-exaltation was tho real inspir tion for tho act. "Your own testimony seems to controvert the theories of your counsel.

Jeromo J. Collins, the Herald correspondent, volimtoered to stand by the dying seaman, lLuis Erickson, and Jet the j otheis of Do Long's pirly push south. Tlio new i Bearch builds huts and goes over every inch oJ j tho region, which is plowed by heavy drift ic? ! every spring. Wo visited Xoidcnskjold's win- | tor quarters and found that he was safe beforo we ontered tho ico near Herald station. Th< i general health of the crow during the twenty* j one months' drift was exei'llent. No senrvj appeared. We used distilled water and beai and sea! meat twico a week. No rum waa served out. Divine service was regularly held. We took plenty of exercise. Evorybody hunted. Gamo was scarce. We got about thirty bcaw, 250 seals and six walrus. Nofishorwhaloj wero seen. All possible observations wer? mado during tho diift, tho result showing a fonrun Tlifl aliir* wna nVM and heavily pressed by tho ice moat of the time. Tho mental strain was heavy on some ol the ship's company. The rosult of tho diitt for tho first five months was forty miles. There was a cycloidafiuovemeiit of the ico. The drift during the last six months was very rapid. The foundings were pretty even. They were | eighteen fathoms near Wrangell Land, wbijli I were often visible seventy-five miles distant. The greatest depth found waB eighty fathoms and tho average thirty-five. The bottom was blue mud. Shrimps and plenty of algological specimens were brought up from tho bottom. The surface water had a temperature of-twenty degrees above zero. The extremes of temperature of tho air wore-greatest cold, fifty-eight below zoro, and the greatest heat, forty-l'our above zero. Tho first winter tho mean" temperature was thirty-three below zero, llio second winter it was thirty-nino below ze;o. Tho first sum-I mcr mean temperature was fortvdegrees above zero. Tho heaviest gale showed a velocity of ' about fifty miles an hour. Such gales were not I frequent. Barometric and tliennomotricfluct- ' nations wore not great. There wore disturbances of the needlo coincident with the auroras. Tho \\ inter's growth of ice was eight feet. The heaviest ice soon was twenty-throe feet. Engineer Scliock's heavy truss saved the ship on November 21 from being citished. Tho tele- I phone wires wore broken by movement* of the ; ice. The photographic collection was lost with the ship. Lieutenaut Chipp's 2,000 auroral obaoivations were also lost. The naturalist's notes have been eaved. Jcannelto Island was discovered May 16 in latitude 7G dog. 47 min. north, longitude 158 dog. 50 min. oast. It was small and rocky, and we did not visit it. Henrietta Island was discovered and viritod on May 24, in latitude 77 deg. 8 min. north, longitude 157 deg. 32 min. east. It is an extensive island. Animals are scarce and glaciers plenty. Bennett Island lies in latitude 76 dep. 38 min. north, long. 148 deg. 20 min. east. It is very large, On it we found many birds, old horns, drift wood and coal, but no seal or walrus. Great tidal action was observed. The coast was bold and rocky. Tne capo on the south coast was named Cape Emma. Wo drifted back during the first week of the retreat twenty-seven miles more than we conld advanco. Tho snow was knee deep. We had to go thirteen times over and over tho track, seven times with loads. Lieutenant Chipp's boats did better than ourg (Melville's) during the afternoon of September 12, the three boats having got clear of the ico off Seminovsky Island at noon of that dav. About dusk he was a thousand yards off our weather quarter and lowered { ail as if rounding to. We lay to for twentyfour hours under a triangular drag. Nothing was seen of Lioutenant Chipp's boat at daylight. He could not get back to tho island in a northwest gale. Ho was unable to carry hi* share of provisions. I observed a strong easterly current near the Lena delta. There were liiaeses of driftwood between. the Siberian Maud*. Jack Cole's mind is not wholly alienated.

From time Immemorial tho horse has been man's best Mend. . But a few years back we can all remember the comparatively little attention paid to this most indispensable of animals. We say comparatively little attention, for the horso was as well groomed, and certainly as well fed, a* now; andat those great gatherings?agricultural shows?you would see tho pride of the county and State stables and farms assembled. But there was a conspicuous want of noble draught horses, and as for speeders?well, 2:40 was the great ultimate limit that owners in those days desired to strive for. But now a 2:40 animal is esteemed a fair roadster, and fine animals only deserve the name when they can shade the first quarter of the th I rd mi nute. There have been immense strides forward in tho right development of horseflesh inthocivllized countries of the world, as shown by the tune-records of the racers and useful, work-horse. Many things haveconspired to effect this desirable end, chief among which have been the intelligent care and consideration bestowed upon the animal in his every relation ?in a word, upon tho breeding. And this has not failed to include a very ?erious modification of the old methods of treatment, doinsr awav. in many cases, with the Inhuman and really savago plans pursued In tho eradication of even simpler disorders and ailment"', and substituting rational measures of relief instead. A prominent factor of this reform, and one Indorsed by owners, breeders, farmers land stockmen th$ country over, Is St. Jacous Oil,, recognized by all who have used it as an exceptionally good remedy for tho ailments of the horse nnd stock generally, meeting more indications for its use nnd effecting lar better results than any article of a cura-'ive or remedial nature ever introduced. Such bifeders and horsemen as Arlstidcs Welch, Esq., of Erdenhelm, near Philadelphia; Mike Goodin, Esq,, Belmont Ptirk, I'a.; Calvin M. Priest, formerly in charge of Mr. Robert Bonner's stock, New York; and thousands of others throughout the eountiy, who could be named, are on the list of unqualified endorsers of Uie efficacy of St. Jacors Oik NY g D?0 * HI KJUlAuLU The Herald says: "Mr. Lothrop't ambition to do good through literature increate* with his opportunely, and the opportunity goes tj the exUtU of putting 1,000,000 books into circulation c\*ry tttur."
