AMONGST THE ICEBERGS. Commander Schley's Vessel Runs Plump Into One. Arotio Region Fascination Describ ed by Lieutenant Greely's Finder. The following is from an interview with Commander Schley, who rescued the remnants of Lieutenant Greely's party : "Had you any unexpected ex periences when you got in the higher latitude aside from the general one pertaining to the expedition ?" i4 Oh, yes. One morning, for in stance, when the atmosphere was hazy from a light fall of snow, in going a stiff nine-knot gait, we ran plump into an iceberg that was in our way, and whicn no one could see. For a mo ment 1 thought eyery mast would go by the board, and that my hair and teeth had proceeded them. . I never got quite such a shock. I was nearly thrown out of the crow's nest. 1 ex pected soon to hear the Alert was leaking. But, strange as it may seem, with a rebound of at least thirty feet, there was not a seam started. It was almost miraculous that we had no cat astrophe, and shows how thoughtfully that ship was built for just such en counters in those seas. On another oc casion, when over against the Green land coast, I counted not Dss than 1,- 500 icebergs that had been pushed from the glacial formation on the sloping headlands of the coast into the sea. We could occasionally hear the cracking that indicated the fissure; but the sight of these majestic monarchs of the sea sailiug off in the morning sunlight, with all the colors of the prism, was something that cannot be/described. Fascinating region ! do you ask ? Nev er a one more so. I wanted to stay there awhile. Eyen the men I took at New Bedford and New London jumped at the chance to go, though some of them said they did not expect to come back again. Why, after we got Greely and our mission was accomplished. I never felt such a pang of disappoint ment that, with seventy-two days of summer weather before me, and an o pen sea, 1 was obliged to turn my prow homeward and abandon the chance to get a higher Jatitude/than any other explorer." "Do you think you' would have had success had you been at liberty to have entered on'such a trip ?" "It seemed so; at least, just then. And this leads me to say that the re mark I haye quoted from Weyprecbt was vindicated in my experience. The theory of winter sojourneying in the high latitudes, in order to be on the ground for another season's continu ance, is, in my judgement, all a mis take. The men might as well come home and have the advantages of civili zation. Nothing is gained by remain ing within the arctic circle that cannot be realized the next season by starting early if the conditions are fayorable. And these conditions rest upon an open sea. Now, some seasons all the waters are filled with ice that it; is impossible to penetrate. The yery next season ev ery strait, bay and channel is likely to bejfopen water. The winds, currents and many unknown or undemonstrated influences affect the ice. What should be done is to get everything in readi ness early in the 3 ear, and by May or early June be at the upper settlements. Then follow promptly the open water, and the occasion will come, sooner or later, when the pole will be reached. In my case I could have got far to the northward, and. if caught in the upper seas, I had proyisions that would have lasted possibly two years, before which time I should have worked out of the trap. ID this connection, let me tell an anecdote. We were buttirg pretty effectually one day some ice that imped ed our progress, when one of the Dun dee whaling captains said, in admira tion of our powers : *Ye did that but ting in foine style, and it is a tough ship that you have ; but if you keep it up, you will ruin your ship for a sec ond season.' 4 Second season,' exclaim ed I—'none for us, if yuu please ! We shall find Greely and be back again long before we begin to divide the sea sous I" And so it turned." ADVICE TO MOTHEBB.

A gentleman travelling through Ireland with a .very stout companion had occasion to hire a jaunting-car, and, having agreed with the driver for half a crown, stepped back to the inn wfcere he was staying and called his fat friend. The driver, as soon as he caught a glimpse of the enormous dimensions of his 'fare,' walked up to the head of his horse, and holding up the tatteied lappets of a worn-out jacket, said : 'Whist, sir, get up as lightly as ye can, will ye V 'What,is your beast skittish V asked the gentle man. 'No, sir,'said Pat, with an in imitably shrewd leer, 'but if he saw the big gentleman he'd most likely say, 'Whist, Pat, but it ought to be five shillings. 1 —Call at the JOURNAL Store tor choice Cards and Pictures, The Fly Screen Agent.
