Gold at 1 p. m. 117 Wbe n, nearly two years ' ego, the stout ship Polaris, bearing on board the members ol Captain Hall's expedition for tbe si pi or ation of the polar regions, sailed away Into tbe dangerous northern seas, it wai sped on its errand by warmest wishes as well at by favorable winds, aud many a heart not oa'a logued with tbe crew accompanied tbe de voted party. Aod now tbe newt of tbe failure of the expedition, and the death or the veteran explores, an outline of whiob Is published iu our telegraphic columns, will eause sincere grief throughout tbe- whole eountry. If, as Is written, "all tteillnl love lowers," they do not any the less love beroesand many and earneet will be tbe prayers that those numbers ot tbe expedi tion who are yl locked up In the lev em brace bt toe frigid seat msy be protected aud enabled to return, home to their coun trymen aud kindred' But we do not ngre with those papers which condemn tileh ex peditious on tbe ground that tney are pro ductive of no practical rseulle. 'It is true that all attempts to solve the problem nf tbe Northwest passage have thus far failed, ami that the terrible aeoret ol tbe Pole, r inalue still unpieroad; but the real value of such expeditions consist In the demoostra tion which they furniah that nature cannot balk mail wlib material impedimenta. In spite ol Hie faft that the great problems ot (he material woild, whose station baa coat so muib anguish, and so roanv Uvea, muat often r.avo suggested tl.fc thought that there wan a4 unhandsome victory vf dead matter over living spirit, thorn is still no waeio ol h-r .cm.

The true triumph of tbe explorers consisted la their prompt obediencs to a noble Instinct; and although they have failed to eotoroe the frozen gates, they have aliened their will to do It, aod this Is heroism and victory. We noted, two or three weeks since, the strange suicide of Earl De La War. an En glish noblemen of wealth and d'tlnctioo who bad risen through valuable service in the Army in lodla to tbe raok of Major Grneral. Earl De La Warr, who was near ly sixty years old and a man of regular bus Inssa Ilka habits, left a note to bis agent describing the extct spot where bis body would benund in the river and Intimating tbe cause of his rash act. Mall accounts bring further explanation. Tbete as a woman in tbe case, who bad been tinder his "protection" and of whom be was very iond. She draok herself to death In spite of tbe medical care her "protector" . provld ed, and tbe Earl was troubled with a feel ing that in some way be was tbe cause of bar death, though there seems to have been no caass whatever for It. PoMca. That renowned female woman, Eliza Pert, got on the rampage sgaln last night. She rested at the same old place, tbe lockup, and this morning received tbe same old sentence 30 days In the county workhouse. Constable Burgess took bei down on the morning train.

He left muttering "Banished from Petro leum Centre, what's baoished but set free to retire to the classioal atampiog grounds of Rousevllle, where there are no lockups, no constables, Justices, or such trasb." j Last evening we bad tbe pleasure of at tending tbe meeting ol tbe Petroleum Cen tre Literary Society, which meats every Monday evening at the publlo sohool bonse on tbe bill, Tbe attendance was very large and the exerciaea ol a very interesting na ture. Especially well rendered was the lei lect reading, entitled 'From Ssora to Shore," by Miss Kennedy. This lady is a One elocutionist and thoroughly understand that branch ol education.

Concerning tbe abtruse legal points Involved In the Missouri case, one need have nothing to say; but as regards tbe action of tbe Baltimore Temperance Convention, it It difficult to resist the con clusion tbat it might be reversed for tbe baiter. If there is anything in this world mere than another opon whleh woman is entitled to have ber "say"' It Is on this very question of temprraoce. It is she that nil fert from drunken bnsbsnds, and that mourns for sons and brothers who sacrifice themselves and ber happiness at tbe thrice ol Ciroe; and it does seem bard, therefore, tbat, wheo means ol reformation are under consideration, she would be shutout.
