[From tbe Now York World.] From the Frozen Seas. Captain C. F. Hall, tho returned Arc tic Explorer, last night, at a late hour, paid a visit, with a friend, to the edito rial rooms of the WvrUL The following particulars of the conversation which took place at the time caunot but inte rest our readers, aud will supplement the report of his explorations which Captain Hall has made to Mr. Henry Grinncll, of this city, aud will soon bo ready for publication. Captain Hall is a good specimen of a manly, hardy and unpretentious sailor, who talks in a simple, straightforward manner of his experience, and makes light of having spent about fivo years within the frozen circle of the arctic zone. He looks stout and hearty, and apparently none the worse for his rough experience. It may seem strange, after such a long abscuco, that he is eager to return to the scene of his adventures ; yet he expresses strong hopes to start next year ou an expedition in search of the North Polo. HIS COMPANIONS. He is accompanied by three Esqui maux, a husband with his wifo and adopted child, who bear the English uames of Joo. Hannah and Silvia. They understand our language, having visited this country at the time Captain Hall w is last here, and uro pleasant aud intel ligent looking pers ms. They are low browed, small eyed, thick-set, with straight hair and chubby, ungraceful forms, characteristic of their race, and quite different from our idea of beauty. They resemble somewhat the lower class of German and Irish emigrants, and arc a little like the Chinese iu appearance. They enjoy civilized life very much, and are. quite pleased to uiukc a second visit to the United Stales. '1 be climate is rather uusuited to their constitutum? aud nsn ilvumde of life, but they soon get ac customed to it. IIIS JOURNAL. Captain Hall has a number of curiosi ties with him, one of tbe :?: /st interest ing of which is his journal, a large blank book, full of notes hastily written with lead pencil at all times and places, aud often under the most unfavorable cir cumstances. Its pages contain the re cord of many weary days of hardship and suffering, aud accounts of moving incidents by flood and Geld, such as arc tardy to be met with. In order to pre vent the writing from being blurred, tho pages have becu dipped in u preparation of glue made from fishus, so that it re tains a sticky feeling LIKE UP NORTH. The Captain gave a vivid description of his experience wit hin the Arctic cir cle, aud his lite among the Esquimaux. The largest body of the latter he ever saw collected together was only 125. This was at a little village near Repulse Bay. and was a rather unusual circum stance. Th' solitary nuture of the life led by the explorers may therefore be imagined. All alone in tho irozeu waste, with hardly a living thing to be met with ; living like moles, in underground houses, with dogs and Esquimaux, so huddled together that the huniaii'could scarcely be distinguished from the brute; shut out from all intercourse with the outer world, excepting tbe scraps of news brought by passing whale ships; such an existence only varied by occasional expe ditions into tbe interior on sledges drawu by dogs, can hardly be called endurable, let alone pleasant. Yet Captain Hall did not complain of tho lifo. 1IOW I1E LIKED IT. After his arrival there he found, as did ulso his Esquimaux companions who had visited this country with him, that it was rather hard at first to return to their old habits, but iu time he got ac customed to it. "Did you cat raw meat, Captain V "Oh, yes, most of the time. We Sometimes had it unoked, but usually liked it better raw. You've no idea how good it is that way. In fact, lor that i lUlltry raw meat is almost indispensable, 'bough. 1 don't think it would do iu this climate." ? Is it true that tbe Esquimaux like it host when it is tainted?" Y< s. and the more so the better. \\ it'll went has ju>t been killed, and is I ir ,-b, it isn't near as good but when it as got to smelt quite bad, aud especial ly niter ?< h .s bcc-i frozen, then it tastes a grout d- al hotter." "Are not the Esquimaux a very dirty people V "Well, yes, it must be admitted they avc?but their mode of lifo has much to dn with this. They have great trouble to get water enough to drink except by the sea shore, and the means of preserv ing cleanliness ore limited." ''How do you find the change in this country affects you ?" "Oh ! very much ! I'm all upset and can scarcely do anything steadily. The food is so different, and there is so much noise everywhere, uud I tcel the chunge in tho air greatly. It is very close and hot here. Why, wheu I first got on ship-hoard to come home, after being so much iu the open air, I could hardly sleep at night, nud I find it hard to do so now. "What do you think caused the loss of Sir John Franklin's company ?" 'Treachery, sir. They were deserted by the uatives, and left without fresh provisions or means of getting them. But for this some of them might have been saved." "What is the r?-sult of your researches in relation to Franklin ?" "Briefly this : We have settled beyond a doubt that Franklin actually discovered the Northwestern passage. Ou his pre vious voyages he had sailed eastward as far as Cape H?rschel!, and now we have shown that he rouched the same point going westward and thus completed the chain of communication. To him, there fore, belongs the honor of haying made the discovery, though Captain McClurc has received the reward offered by the British government to the persou who should succeed in the effort." "Are you satisfied with the result ?" "Well, yes ; considering how much we did, it is useless to think of how much more might have been accomplished. if the Esquimaux, who went with me, had not ben so timid, or if I hud had a body of resolute white men to back me, 1 think I might have gone ou. We were lucky enough to meet with and capture a herd of seventy-nine musk oxen and seveutceu reindeer, which would have been provision for a month, and would have allowed us to explore much further, but the Esquimaux were afraid of some hostile tribes of uatives iu the vicinity, and absolulel}' refused to go on." "Did you have any great obstacle to contend with V '?Yes; during the first three years we suffered a good deal, but afterwards had not so much trouble." "Were your compasses at all affected by your proximity to the North Pule!'"' "Yes, so much s-> that at one time they were useless ; at one place the vari ation was over ninety degrees." (,Uow about the long seasons of dark ness T* "Those we were fortunate in avuit by wiotering within the Hue where| sun's rays are visible all the time." "Why cannot steam be used for a| exploration V1 "So it can. There are large surj of coal on the west coast of (jlreenj and I think that with steam the Northwest passage might be made| single season." "Do you think leading such a sol life has any tendency to bring men' to the suvage state?" "Well, I hardly know?though the thought did strike me once or twice. For a man who is fund of society, it is a terrible existence, but ignorant men bear it pretty well. what's the news ? Naturally, after a livo years' abscuce, during which he had been almost en tirely cut off from the world, Captain Hull was euger to learn what had trans pired during the interval. The comple tion ot the Pacific Railroad, new Atlan tic cable, and other events of like impor tance, were utterly unknown to him, ; nd were listeucd to with us greedy oars as Llesdedetuoua fiuve to Othello's love tale.

November. 18(39. The city at thin Bcason is exceedingly gay. The streets are kalaidcscopic with hurrying crowds in ncweHt habiliments of brightest colors. Never before did color seem to be used to ?uch advantage. Wo no longer see the patch-work looking toilettes of many tint;*, but good service able-looking self-colored suits, trimmed j with material ot different texture but the same color. Besides the suit proper? which muy be of silk or velvet or cloth or sutiu?plaid shawls or burnous arc worn, or st riped baruous, or showier Still, burnous of self-colered cloth, heavily embroidered. One of the latter recently ordered by Mile.-1 the distinguished Prima Donna, was of bright scarlet cloth of the finest texture; it was so shaped that it answered for a mantle with a hut. in which state it was suitable for pro menade, or without a hat it formed a mantle and hood suitable for carriage wear, for the opera or aa a tutrtie du lud. The mantilla ends of the fronts were made long enough to cross on the breast and tie in a loose k not behind ; all around the edges, on the "shoulders, the cuds, and the hood piece ware heavily em broidered in floral pattern, iu varied colored silk, on the (Jrover A Baker Machine, and the euds were finished with tassels to match. We kave fre quently mentioned this machine in dos ! cribing fashionable attire, for in the 1 matter of embroidery, and stitching bias I seams?and this is an age ol slopes and hcauis and gores?it is the only machine that cau accomplish .{.hem perfectly. Another style of wrap?the Red .lacket, very popular now?owes all its beauty to the work of this machine; the material is simply red opera-flannel, but by being worked iu floral or (Ircek patterns in black or white silk the most admirable elects are obtained. The jackets ate worn by school girls principally. Oim or two of them, and a watei proof cape for rainy day--, are deemed indispensable by loud and fashionable mammas. For full dress promenade costume-, satin will be much worn; as tri in mi ug, this mat. rial is going out, velvet taking the place it had last season iu popular favor. A beautiful walking suit of blue satin of a bright shade bus been completed for a young bride; it was trimmed with bauds of English squirrel skin, these were arranged around the tunic and around the pointed basqm-a collarette and cuffs of the same accompanied it?the gloves were cd'bright bluu kid, the exact shade of the satin.

A dinner dress was of u grey the ndl. .ilk, A [orod blue; lie ot lack aud ser suit jqucs style is that of trimming dresses of one mater ial with flounces or rouches of another? thus a purple silk is trimmed to the waist with narrow ruffles of black pinked silk, the dress shows only on tbe waist and sleeves aud between the ruffles. Auditor is black silk flounced with grenadine, four flounces with their depth between each. The flounces were finished with two rows of sewing-machine stitching. Bias plaid flounces cut in the points indicated by the plaid are very new, and when the plaids are blight like tbe Rob Roy, the Stuart, the Victoria, are also very effective on the browns und greys and blacks, which are always iu fashion. A scarf of the same folded across the breast is a great improvement, as it iu - parts the suit air so much desired to the costume. The proper head gear for this uithcr. v. Surety on a bail bond.

Hogs Want Sulphur.?Whether hogs require sulphur as essential to their health, or whether it is sought by them as a condiment may not he known for certainty. But one thing is sure, they devour it with greed w heuever it is to be found. It is for this purpose, probably, that they eat large quantities of soft coal, which contain a large amount of sulphur. Perhaps this is the most economical nut hod of supplying hogs with sulphur during the winter, when they rcquiroa good deal of carbon. But in the summer, it is better to feed it to them in substances which contain less carbon, on account of their producing less heart. Mustard is odo of the best things lor this purpose, and on that account some ul it should be sown in every pasture into which hogs me turned. If hogs are kept iu j ens, or are in small yards, it is well to supply them with the wild uiustatd that grows in the fields or highways, or to cultivate some of the bet ter varieties for them. They will eats its leaves, fiowers, seeds and stalks. ' ? _ .

To succeed, you must keep moving. The world-rcnowncd Rothschilds as cribe their success to the following rules : He on hand ; make a barguin at onoe.

David Ricurdo, the celebrated politi cal economist, had what he culled his own three golden rules, the observance of which he used to press on h^B friends. They were: Never refuse an opinion when you can get it. Cut short your losses. Let your profits run ou. John Jacob Astor, when requested tu furnish incidents of his life, replied^ '?my actions must make my life." Stephen Girard's fundamental maxim was, "take care of the cents, the dollars will take cure of themselves." Robert Bonner, who tuade u furtuue in four years out of the Now York Ledger, attributes his success entirely to his '?persistent, repeated and goner us adver tising."
