The record addressed to the secretary
of the navy, which Lieutenant
I)e Long wrote during the two years
of the Jeannette's drift, contains 102
closely-written foolscap pages. The
following extract gives his reasons for
entering the icepack, and outlines his
plans and hopes:
" As the commander of a polar expedition.
my chief desire was to get north,
and I had already come so far to the
westward, in carrying out the department's
orders, that the sooner I started
in a northerly direction seemed
the better for the object in view. Additional
time would be lost were 1 to
attempt to get a more easterly position
before heading to the northward,
particularly as from the
experience of American whalers, and
the ships of the English Franklin relief
expedition, there was nothing to
indicate there a better chance of progress.
On the other hand, we were
within 220 miles of Wrangell Land,
which though seen had never been
landed on. With land so near us offering
a chance of exploration, and a winter
harbor from which a higher latitude
might be attained by sledges, and
perhaps presenting what was naturally
to be expected?land-water
along its eastern coast?in which case
a good northing might be uiade by the
ship herself before any exploration or
sledge journey might be undertaken, I
concluded that I was exercising good
judgment in considering that land as
a kind of support for the lirst winter's
campaign, and I accordingly shaped
a course north by west, true, proceeding
with all speed."
T)e Long, then tells how the ship
made her way north through floating
ice until she reached a point forty
miles east-southeast of Ilerald Island,
where she was stopped r.y what seemed
tobeimpenetrable'pack ice. That night
a promising lead opened to the westward,
and J)e Long decided to enter it.
He says:
" Believing that the best chance for
an advance would be by land-water
extending along the eastern coast of
"Wrangell Land, and hoping that the
promising lead to the westward would
conduct us to it, 1 concluded to enter
it as soon ;is there was sufficient daylight
the next morning."
He entered the lead and steamed
five hours, when the ship was stopped |
by heavy ice ten or fifteen feet thick.
"Wrangell Land was in sight to the
westward. The record continues:
"At that time I hoped we were destined
to reach this land. Though our
lead had abruptly terminated at a wall
of ice, the surface of the Hoes was cut
up here and there by ponds and small
lakes, which any movement of the ice
might unite in a lane of navigable
water. Instead of opening, however,
the ice closed, and on the following day
the Jeannette was beset. Unless something
like a gale of wind occurred to
breakup the ice, our advance was no
longer to he guided or controlled by
any power from within the ship. We
had gone as far to the northward a*
the heavy pack ice had permitted, and
we had followed up the only water
lane presenting itself, anil h;ul come to
the end of that. My choice of plans
was limited to the surroundings. To
advance was impossible. To retreat
?disagreeable (even if a chance existed
of doing so), and holding our
present location meant wintering in
the pack and drifting we knew not
where. The land-water of Kellet
Land was now as unattainable as tiie
land water of Greenland, so far as any
power of our own could be effective; the
ocean we had left behind was as much
out of oar reach as if a continent had
intervened, and there seemed nothing
left but to make a virtue of necessity
and stay where we were."
The Jeannette's officers at once began
preparations for the winter. Foreco/>inr?

by the constantly moving ice, DeLong
had everything in readiness for abandoning
her anil retreating on sledges
to Heraid Island, Wrangell Land or
the Siberian coast. Upon this subject
he says:
"On October 27, 1879, in order to be
prepared for any emergency not then
to be foreseen, our party was told oil
into sledging crews, commanded respectively
bv the five commissioned
officers attached to the ship, and upon
five sledges were packed forty days'
rations for men and dogs. A detail
was made of duties to be performed
by each individual in event of disaster
;* bringing about an abandonment of
?. the ship. Our sleeping bags, tents and
other traveling gear were overhauled
and made ready for use, and the
loaded sledges on the poop deck were
arranged with reference to the most
^ convenient manner for getting them to
the ice. All these preparations com
pieteu, we igimi nieit-i> un<nt tnu in
ture, satisfied oi' our powerlessness to
t do more.
" November 11 was a day of much
anxiety and care. At G a. m. the
' trembling and creaking of the ship
gave notice that our ice procession had
* '? resumed its march. Going out on \vhat
little was left of our level ice, we
were com'ronted by a fearful spectacle.
The pressures and movements of the
previous day were feeble in comparison
with what was now going on.
Large blocks, seventy-five feet in
. length, seven feet in thickness, and in
v breadth from six to 200 feel, were rear
v ing up on ends as they advanced,
crushing similar pieces to small lumps
or toppling over and breaking tliein"
C* selves into all kinds of shapes and
sizes, and all this with the most horrible
noise, such as can hardly be de.
' scribed. The rumbling of a railroad
train in a tunnel, the shrieks of a
thousand steam wmsties.anu tnecrasn
of a falling house all combined, would
make the nearest approach to the noise
which deafened us for more than four
hours."
De Long describes very fully and
V with many pen-and-ink diagrams the
long battle of theJeannette with the
*' ice and the expedients which were re
' sorted to to repair damages and to
strengthen the ship for future ordeals.
'I * About the middle of January the
Jeannette's - forefoot was severely
twisted, and a leak was thus caused
. which threatened for a time to defy
_all means of control. By the exertions,
however, of the carpenter, Sweetman,
and the sailor, Xinderman, a bulkhead j
was built forward of the foremast
which partially confined the water.
;De Long says:
* "{Sometimes all day, and sometimes
all night, and sometimes both, from
. January 19 to February 4, these two
men, Sweetman and Xinderman, stood
down in the forep*ak, the icy water
flowing around them nearly to their
knees, working faithfully until their
work was accomplished. The good results
of that work were evident in the
gradually reduced amount of water
coining into the ship, and our ability
to control the leak without -such a
ruinous expenditure of fuel as had
been necessary before. It is for these
reasons that I have had the honor to
: - recommend these two men to you for
medals of honor as a recognition of
heroic conduct under most trying circumstances."
Sweetman was afterward lost in
Chipp's boat.
l)e Long's record of the remainder
'' of the winter and summer of 1880 is a
story 01 storms, ice movements, constant
anxiety and almost unbroken
disappointment. As the short arctic
summer drew to a close without setting
the Jeannette free, and another
dreary winter approached, I)e Long
evidently began to revolve in his mind
the question whether it would not be
better to abandon the ship and make
for the northern coast of Siberia over
.V the ice than to run the risk of a second
winter in the pack. On September 20,
1880, he says:
' > "I dislike naturally to dwell on the
> " idea of the abandonment of the ship.
"We have come through so much that!
it gives me hopes of surviving more.
As long as enough of the ship remains
to shelter us, sticking bv that fragment
is preferable tch^amping en ice,
and I can conceive m no greater
'forlorn hope' than an attempt to
reach Siberia (say 240 miles distant)
over the ice that surrounds us- and
with the winter's cold sapping one's
lifts at every step. Of course if we]
to lose our ship we would make I
the effort to get there, but our chances
of success would be extremely problematical."
The last entry is dated December 31,
1880, and is as follows:
"Minstrels and ringing in the new
year in latitude seventy-three degrees
forty-eight minutes north, longitude
177 degrees thirty-two minutes east.
During the past sixteen months we

if it had been in a straight line to
carry us to and beyond the pole, but
we are yet only 200 miles northwest
of where we were first beset. We
have suffered injury, and danger has
often confronted us. We have bee*
squeezed and jammed, tossed and
tumbled ; we have pumped a leuking
I ship for a year: but we are not yet
daunted, and are as ready to dare
everything as we ever were. And we
face the new year firmly, hoping to do
something worthy of ourselves, of
Bennett's enterprise and the tlag
above us."
Within ten months after these words
were written the .Jeannette was at
the bottom of the ocean and DeLong
lay dead in the Lena delta.
The New York Morgue.
Last year 5,(575 bodies were sent to
the New York morgue, an increase of
170 over the number received in 1881.
Every year the figures are being increased*
to such an extent as to provoke
curiosity, and it is asked, "Where
do these bodies all come from, and
what becomes of them?" .Some are
sent there from the police stations,
having been found dead in the street
or in tlie river, but the larger proportion
are received from the outdoor
poor of the city. Those who die in
the public institutions are, as a general
thing, known. The rules of the
various institutions from which they
are sent requires the removal of a body
from the siek ward as soon as life has
departed.
Each hospital has a dead house attached
to it in which the bodies remain
for several days in order to give
the friends of the deceased persons an
opportunity of claiming them. If not
claimed they are sent to the morgue.
Institutions not having rooms set aside
for the dead immediately send the
bodies to the morgue. After remaining
there for a number of days they
are sent to Potter's Field if not otherwise
cared for. Those who are called
unknown dead are found floating in
[ the river, lying in the streets or die in
the various institutions neiore uieir
names can l>e obtained. The most unfortunate
dead are those who are taken
to the morgue 011 account of poverty.
These are known as the outdoor poor
and are buried by the commissioners
of charities and correction. When a
body is received at the dead-house it is
placed in a white pine coffin, where it
remains for several days, and is then
sent to the city cemetery on Hart's
island. There the bodies are interred
in a pit, sometimes its many as seventyfive
persons being placed in one grave.
Last year there were no less than
1,804 dead children sent to the morgue.
A small proportion of these were
buried in private cemeteries, the majority
being interred in Potter's Field.
It is remarkable that in a city in which
there are so many charitable people as
in New York so many little ones
should bo sent to the city cemetery.
All of the 1,804 children were under
five years of age. Many little ones
are sent to Potter's Field annually
trough the trickery of undertakers.
In many cases where the child is but
a few days old or is stillborn the parents
do not desire to have a public
funeral. They therefore engage an
undertaker to take the child to a cenie
tei Y <U1U uui v it in a jaupi
This, however, is often not done. A
common coftin is procured, into which
the babe is put, and it is then sent to
the morgue to be buried in a pauper's
grave.?Ntw York Tdtgram.
An Affecting War Story.
Mrs. Mary C. Fisher, wife of Judge
Fisher, of York, Penn., spent one week
among the wounded and amid scenes
of suffering and woe after the battle
of Gettysburg. From a column of
recollections of the sorrowful incidents
of that week which she furnishes
the Philadelphia Times, we cut
the following touching story :
One beautiful evening, after a long
day's hard work, one of my boys came
t? me and said : "There is a 'little
chap' out there who heard there was
a woman from his home, and he wants
to see you." I found him at the
furthest extremity of the hospital,
with a half dozen other hopeless cases.
He was a lovely boy, scarcely more
thjm :i rhilil. who li:ul run awnv from
his home in Providence, II. I., to join
the "drum corps." lie was a brave
boy and a great pet among the soldiers,
who nursed him as tenderly as possible,
but could poorly supply a mother's
loving care. How he longed for one
more look of her dear face and once
again to hear her sweet words of love!
He was so frail and slight it was a
marvel how he could have endured
the fatigue and privation
so long. He was not disfigured
by wounds, but constant marches,
insufficient food and often sleepless
nights had exhausted his strength, and
he had not vitality to resist the sharp
attack of fever. lie was perfectly
conscious, but too weak to say much.
I asked the poor child what I could do
for him. " Oh, I want my mother!'
I sat down on the ground and taking
him in my arms tried to comfort liim.
lie turned his face to me saying : 1
am so tired," laid his head against me
and appeared to sleep. The last iays
of the sun touched the lev ely features
of the dying boy. The long-drawn
shadows vanished in the gathering
darkness. Silt nee, unbroken save by
the plaintive moan of some poor victim,
succeeded the hum of the busy
day. The pitying dews shed a balm
upon his brow. Fainter and fainter
grew the breath and more feeble the
clasp of the little hand, when suddenly
rousing he opened his eves,
glazed in death, and looking long and
earnestly in my face, said : " Kiss me.
lady, before I die!" Clinging still
closer to the stranger who could but
faintly represent the fond mother's
tenderness he so eagerly craved, he
dropped his heavy lids and slept away
his brief life as peacefully as a child
goes to sleep in its mother's arms. I
gently laid the lifeless form down on
the hard earth and left him to a
soldier's burial and a nameless grave.
Poor fellow, what an atom lie seemed
to be in all that mass of wretched,
suffering, dying humanity! Yet lie
was all the world to the heart of that
mother, who wept and prayed tor her
darling's safe return to the distant
home, that never again would echo his
boyish step or ringing laugh.
Reasons for foiiiinittincr Suicide.
The following remarkable letter was
left behind by a man who committed
suicide at Esistport, Me., as his reasons
for self-murder:
I go to my Creator. 1. Because He
calls me by every nerve and sense of
feeling that lie lias given me. 2. lie
calls me through the parable of the
prodigal son and the Sermon on the
Mount. It is said: "If thine, eye or
arm offend thee cut them off." (My
hole body offends me.) It is said:
''Ue ye perfect, as your Father which
is in heaven is perfect." He has not
an imperfect body; neither will I have
one. :J. To me it is evident that my
Creator is far more powerful than his
creature, and that I am bound to obey
Hiin,whatever lie has in store for me,
and that lie did not make my nerves
and feelings t<> lie in such a relation
to external things that it would be
pleasant for me to disobey Ilim or vice
versa. Consequently the heat and
cold bid me go. The pains of disease
and bodily imperfections bid me go.
The offensive odors in every breeze bid
me go. The unpleasant sounds that
are constantly occurring bid me go
from them. 4. I hate the things and
ways and works of the world, and of
men. (They all may be well to others,
who should r*main and enjoy them.)
Then this great desire to avoid them
impels me to go. 5. There is no joy to
induce me to remain in this
world, and I trust my desires that He
has given me. 6. I love the whole
wvorkl, and think that I can benefit it

Making Money on Organs.
Hilly Tremaine is well-known as one J
of the most successful salesmen in the
music trade. One day the writer asked J
him how it was that he had always been .
so successful in selling organ*,especially (
to farmers, when traveling through the t
country, as he did formerly.
1 will tell you, he replied. I always J
j made love to the daughter, if there ?
wjis one. At that time 1 had a partner
named Archibald, and we went under f
the linn name of Archibald & Tremaine.
One day we drove into a small f
village and stopped at an inn where a j
number of farmers were lounging <
around. We inquired if they could *"
tell us where we could sell an *
organ. "Oh, yes," answered one, ?
"you go up to Ike lirown's; he'll buy |
one of you." At this the others all (
laughed heartily. We made some in- j
quiries, and found that Ike Brown was
?1.1 nlw.llt

miles distant, who married a second
wife, with whom he did not live on
pleasant terms; that he had a daughter
about seventeen years old by the
first wife, and two little children by
the second. We drove up to the house.
" Does Mr. Brown live here?" we inquired.
" Yes."
" Is he at home?"
" Yes."
' Where is he?"
"Here."
With this he slowly turned himself
over, and looked at us and our wagon.
".See here now," he exclaimed,
" you jest git. I don't want no
organ."
We told him we did not want to sell
him any, that we were on our way to
the house of a farmer named Bartlett,
about nine miles distant. That, having
heard he set a nice table, we had c
merely stopped there for dinner.
" I've lieerd tell on you fellows '
afore," he replied. "You want to get t
that infernal thing into my house, and .
then you won't take it out. But if
you do, I'll burst her to pieces with an
ax."
We took our horse out of the wagon, t|
and I accompanied the old farmer to ,,
h:irn Httfore startinor I told
Archibald to be sure and get the
organ into the parlor while we were c
gone. v
AVe went to the stable and looked
after the horse, and I kept the old 0
man waiting as long as I could on one g
pretext and another. When we returned,
however, there was the organ f
about half way up the front steps, and 0,
Brown's wife and my partner tugging t.
away at it for dear life.
The old farmer was so mad he swore ]
till everything was blue. v
" But, my dear!" interposed the \
wife,44 they only want to set it in the v
parlor." a
"Oil, you go and get your dinner,"
yelled her infuriated husband. c
She left, and I talked to the old man j
till 1 quieted him down and got him
to consent to let us set it up in the
house and let us play on it while they t
were getting dinner ready. Occasion- f
ally I would look over my shoulder r
and surprise the old man (who was u
sitting in the kitchen) peeking through v
the door. When he saw me he would h
?dways dodge back. ,
Shortly after his wife came into the j
room. She was very anxious to have L
the organ for her little ones that were ^
growing up, to play on. I said to her:
"If you will oppose this strongly, I'll {
sell him the organ." She agreed to do j
so, and we all sat down to dinner. We
talked about the crops and different I
topics till, finally, I introduced the t
subject of the organ. 1 told him that ?
his daughter was now almost a full ii
grown woman, and he ought to purchase
it for her so that she could learn f
to play. $
"You had better buy her a washtub,"
ejaculated his wife. L
" I'll buy her what I please, for all of r
you," answered the irate husband. d
With this the battle waxed warm, I
can assure you. She goaded him on, n
while lie fumed and swore. I left the a
table and went into the parlor. Soon c
the daughter followed me, and then g
the old man. lie went over and talked
with the daughter a few minutes, i
and men came over 10 wnere i was d
sitting.
" Won't yon play us a tune on that c
air thing?" f
I played liitn a lively jig, and then s
| pretended I was in a great hurry to I
get over to fanner Bartlett's. \
"Hold on a minute, and play us i
another," said lie.
I complied. *j
"AVhat'll you take for the whole *
thing?" <
" Two hundred dollars."
"Look here, now. I'll tell you ^
jest what I'll do with you. I'll give i
$190." * ' t
"That settles it. Bring on your i
greenbacks," said I. c

brought down $190, and I left.?Music c

How People Die.
Miss Nightingale has pointed out f
how constantly the mental state of the v
dying depend on their physical condi- (
tions. As a rule, she tells us, in acute i
cases interest in their own danger is d
rarely felt. "Indifference, excepting i (
with regard to bodily suffering, or to \
some duty the dying man desires to (
perform, is the far more usual state, t
Hut natients who die of consumption
very frequently die in a state ol" ?
I seraphic joy and peace ; the counte- i
nance almost expresses rapture. Pa- t
ticnts who die of cholera, peritonitis, i
etc., on the contrary, often die in a k
state approaching despair. In dysen- I
tery, diarrhea or fever the patient i
often dies in a state of indifference." '
Those who have carefully examined
j the dead on a battlefield, or in the t
street after an emeute, are struck j t,
with the fact that while the expres-1
sion of the faces of those who have j r
died by gunshot wounds is one of ( p
agony and distress ?:.< dead by sword v
have a calmer ? \j ression, though t
tlieir wound often setms more painful I
to the eye. A vtry careful observer, who
was through the Indian mutiny, p
entirely confirms this. After giving c
several instances, he says: ' A rapid p
death bv steel is almost painless. Saber ii
edge or point divided the nerves so f]
quickly as to give little pain. A bullet s
lacerates."?London .Spectator. i

A STRANGEJREMmSCEHCE.
Tlic Escape of a Well Known ex-Army Surgeon
lYoin an Unforeseen Danger.
{Baltimore American.)
Messrs. Editors:
I seldom appear publicly in print, but the
facta connected with my experience which
follow are so striking, and bear so olosely
upon the experience of others, that I venture
to reproduce them entire :
In the month of September, 1879, I was
practicing medicine in New Orleans. The
summer had been excessively hot and everybody
was complaining of being exhausted
and feeling tired. It was not an unfrequent
occurrence to have patients ask for something
to relieve this weary sensation, aEd
that I should also partake of the same universal
lassitude or weakness, did notalam
ine. I supposed that overwork and exposure
had produced a temporary physical prostra
tioii; therefore I made ft trip to St. Paul,
Minn., thinking th.it a rest of a few weoks in
a cooler climate would soon reinvigorate me.
Little did I dream, however, what was in
Btore for me. After getting Bottled in my
new quarters I took a short walk every day,
and patiently awaited a return of strength,
but in spito of ull my efforts I seemed to be
losing strength; and even any slight exercise
became laborious and tiresome.
During this time I had frequent dull aching
pains in my head, and through my back and
hips, occasional shooting pains in various
parts of the body, with soreness, shortness
of breath, and palpitation of the heart. My
feet and handsVould be like ice one day, and
bum with the heat the next. I had no desire
for food, and what I did eat distressed me;
my sleep became disturbed with the frequent
desire to urinate. The quantity of fluid
passed would at one timo be small and at
another quite profuse. Then for days I
would be perfectly free from this desire and
nothing seemed to be the matter; nevertheless
my debility gradually increased. My
eyelids were puffed out; my bowels were
alternately torpid and too active, the urine
would be clear some days, on others it would
be of high color and deposit a brick-dust
sediment, and at still others there would be
a whitish appearance and a thin greasy
scum would rise to tho top. The pains in my
head, back, chest, joints, bowels and bones
were hornblo in tho extreme. I went in.
vain from place to place aud consulted the
best medical authorities tho country afford*; I
I would have a chill one day and a burning '
fever the next. I suffered excruciatingly J
with a numbness of my feet and hands, and
at the base of tho brain and between my '
shoulders; at times my limbs and body]
would bloat and physicians said I was suffer- I
ing from the dropsy and could not recover. '
How I could be so blind to the terrible trouble 1
that was devouring me, I do not know; but ;
ihrvnanriHc v urhn nrrt inffftrmnr 1
from the same cause and are as ignorant of
its nature as I was. My akin was the color
of marble at one time, and then again it
woald be like saffron, aud this terrible restlessness,
and I might say wihlness, was followed
by a dull, heavy, drowsy sensation. I
was wasted to a mere skeletou excopt when
the dropsical bloat vocnrred. I triod all the
celebrated mineral wators of this country
and Europe; all kinds of meliciue and all i
kinds of doctors. Still no help camo. I lay j
at my hotel in Philadelphia, where I was j
temporarily sojourning, given up to die by ;
friends and physicians alike, when there i
providentially came into my Hands a little- j
pamphlet, which I carefully read and from
which I got a viow of my real condition,
which no other agency had revealed. Acting '
on its advice, I had my water analyzed at
once, and to my surprise, albumen and tube
oasts were found in large quantities. A skillful
physician was sent for and apprised of
the fact. He said I had Bright's Disease,
and that death was certain. My friends importuned
me to take a remedy which had.
won a great reputation for the euro of all
forms of kidney diseases, and I therefore
laid aside my prejudice and commenced its.
use. At first my stomach rejected it and I
had to use small quantities; but after the first
five days my stomach retained full doses.
This was one year ago last October, and my
improvement was rapid and permanent. I
havo regained fifty of the sixty-five pound*
of flesh I lost during my illness, and I feel as
well to-day as I ever did, and I can unreservnHlv
Khit* that mv life wus saved bv Warner's
Safe Kidney and Livor Cnre, the remedy I
used.
It may scorn strange that I, being a physioian
and an ex-army surgeon, did not have
the water analyzed before; but such is the
fact. I had the symptoms of every other
disease, and I did not suspect that my kidneys
were in the least particular out of order;
and here is just whero I was in tho greatest
danger, and where most people who read this
articlo aro in danger. I iind that I am
only one of thousands who are suffering
from kidney disorders, which, neglected,
surely terminate in .Bright'* disease. I also
know that physicians may treat these disorders
for months without knowing cloarly
what the trouble is, and even after ascertaining
the causa be unable to provont it. When
death, however, finally overtakes the helpless
victim they disguise its real cause, attributing
it to heart disease, convulsions, apoplexy,
vertigo, paralysis, spinal meni agetiB,
blood and uremic poisoning, etc., etc.
Words, of couisu, fail to express my shanks
to H. H. Warner .t Co., of Rochester, II. Y.,
for giving the world such a needed and certain
specific as tho Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure, but such as they are I gladly give them;
u-fiilfl \r> tho thoi Hand-; to whom I hnva lnr
tur?i ui>on the l;w- oi health and hypene I
commend this ltfter most cordially, nnd
warn them to boware of the insidious nature
of a disease over which physicians confess
they hare no control nnd which in one form
or another is carrying more people to untimely
gravea than any other malady.
J. M. PORTER, M. D.,
Baltimore, Md., 94 Saratoga street.
A Year in America's Metropolis.
The number of deaths in New York
during 1882 was 37,951, or 673 less
than in 1881; of births, 27,321, or 191
more than in 1881; marriages, 11,085,
or 1,008 more than in 1881. Of those
who died, 17,305 were under five years
and 2,342 over seventy years. Among
the deaths were those of thirteen persons
reported as over 100 years, three
of them being colored, nine natives of
Ireland, and one an Indian woman.
Two men were hanged, 199 persons
committed suicide, 198 were drowned,
and seventy-five homicides took place.
Two women of between sixty-five and
seventy, and fourteen men of between
seventy and eighty, and one of over
eighty, were married. Of the whole
number two women and six men had
been married three times before, and
one widow who mourne<l four husbands
was again led to the altar. Ten
white women married colored men.
Of the births, 14,068 were males and
13,25-3 females. The number of
mothers who bore twins was 187, and
one mother had triplets. Three courts
granted 300 decrees of divorce during
the year.
The number of emigrants landed at
Castle Garden in 1882 was 455,844,
which was 14,780 more than in 1881,
and the largest ever received in any
one year at this port. Of the emirrr-.)nt?
17H (;8.r? came from Germany. 1
48,734 from Ireland, 39,581 from Sweden
and Norway, 36,080 from England,
23,819 from Italy, 15,137 from
Kussia.
The arrival of vessels from foreign
ports aggregated 6,476, against 6,929
in 1881; and of steamers the totid was
1,945. The coastwise arrivals numbered
8,683, against 8,271 in 1881, and
those from Southern ports 3,968. Of
the merchandise exported from the
United States during tho last fiscal
year 45.9 per cent, went out of New
York, and of the imports sixty-eight
percent, came in at New York, at
whose custom house nearly sixty-nine
percent, of the duties on imports were
collected. The imports of the United
States for the year were greater in
value than ever before.
The number of lires in New York
during 1882 was 1,981, involving a loss
of $4,200,593, more than a million and
a half less than in 1881.
During 1882 the number of new
buildings erected in New York was
2.5U1, of :in estimated cosi ni /o,08(5.
The number of buildings altered
and enlarged was 1,071), and the estimated
cost of the improvements was
$4,268,181.
Ocean Shrubs.
Fucus is the name of a Linntrcm
genus of sea-weeds, which are more 01
less abundant on the rocky costs of
most countries. They are stronggiowing
species and may be considered
as the shrubs of the ocean. During
storms the force of the waves uproots
large quantities of sea-weeds of
different species, which are waftfcd on
shore and left by the receding tides,
such being known by the name of
wrack, the drying and burning of
which at one time furnished employment
to large numbers of people in
Scotland and Ireland. The ashes, containing
carbonate of soda, were called
kelp, and were used in the manufacture
of soap and glass, but since carbonate
of soda has been manufactured
from salt for these purposes, the burning
of sea-wrack has almost ceased.
From the ash of sea-weeds another
important chemical substance called
iodine is obtained, and is well known
in medicine as a powerful absorbent.
In agricultural districts wrack is
eagerly sought after for manure; its
virtue as such depends principally on
the salt it contains. On some parts of
the coast of Japan sea-plants are
largely collected, mey are exported
to China anil conveyed to the interior
where salt is scarce. Many of them
are also edible.
A Philadelphia medical journal records
the death at Stonersville, I'enu.,
of Anna Shearer, the child dwarf. She
was ten years of age and weighed
fourteen pounds. She w;ls unable to
talk or walk. The parents are healthy
and full grown, and the father is a
blacksmith.

President Washington's Dinner,
"To return to Washington's dinner,"
the writer of the description
continues: " First was soup, fish,
roasted and boiled meats, gamnon,
fowls, etc. This was the dinner. The
middle of the table was garnished in
the usual tasty way with small
images, flowers (artificial), etc. The
dessert was first apple pies, puddings,
etc.; then iced cream, jellies, etc.; then
watermelons, muskmelons, apples,
peaches, nuts. It was the most solemn
dinner ever I sat at," continues
Maclay. " Not an health drank, scarce
a word said, until the cloth was taken
away. Then the President, taking a
glass of wine, with great formality
drank the health of every individual
by name 'round the table. Everybody
imitated him?charged glasses, and
such a buzz of 'health, sir,' and
'health, madame,' and 4 thank you, sir,'
a nd 4 thank you, madame,' never had I
heard before.
" The ladies sat a good while and th?
bottle passed about, but there was a
dead silence almost. Mrs. "Washington
at last withdrew with the ladies. I
expected the men would begin, but
the s ame stillness remained. The President
told of a New England clergyman
who had lost a hat and wig in
passing a river called the Brunks.
He smiled and everybody tlse laughed.
lie now ancl then said a sentence or
two on some common subject, and
what he said was not amiss. The
President kept a fork in hand when the
cloth was taken away. I thought for
the purpose of picking nuts. lie ate
no nuts, but played with the fork,
striking on the edge of the table with
it. We did not sit long after the ladies
retired. The President rose, went mpstairs
to drink coffee?the gmpany
followed." This precedent was followed
at President Arthur's dinners
last year.?Philadelphia Times.
A Musical Amazon.
Mrs. Ringenary is a German woman,
residing at Locust Gap, a coal town
near the line of Schuykill county. A
few years ago she worked with her
husband in the mines and assisted him
in drilling and blasting out coal, making
a full hand and receiving her share
of pay for her labors. She soon purchased
a strong horse and truck wagon
and now is hauling coal and supplying
t.hp Inral trade of the town. This
Amazon is not lacking in musical
talent. The violin is her preference,
and frequently during the past summer
! she exhibited her skill with the ancient
! instrument by assisting in orchestral
music for picnic parties. She is about
thirty-five years of age, of medium
height, muscular, and has a face that
is rather pretty than other wise.?Philadelphia
Press.
A One-Legged Wild Man.
A South Australian paper says that
! a wild man of fierce aspect and p&i
culiar shape has been discovered by
; travelers in a forest sixty miles west
! of Onkaparinga. The trunk of his
body terminates in a single leg, which
is more than twice the thickness of an
ordinary leg. The heel of a single foot
projects some five or six inches behind
the ankle bones, while the foot itself is
broad and flat and of extraordinary
length. So quick is the man in his
actions that he can get over the ground
with much greater rapidity than a man
mn run }i)?>aun/l wit.h twn fitnilt lpors
He moves in a series of long hops, and
he lias been seen to hop across streams
twelve and fifteen feet wide. The attempts
of travelers to effect the man's
capture proved ineffectual.
