The Joys >r the Polar Expedition.
The Swedish polar exploring expedi
tion, in pnrnnit of that long-eought-for
northwestern passage from the Atlantic
to the Pieiflc. via the north rape* of
Europe, \*ia and Rrhring "trait*. is in
serious troniie. It i* fn*t in the ice of
Behrug Strait*, "t n considerable dis
tance fr.131 any settlement,'' as a la>u
dou dispatch luforms ua. Didn't they
have k suspicion there was ice up that
way when they started? And did they
expect to find a tavern every few miles
or ao on the route where they could
"top an i warm ? At regular interval* an
Aretie expedition is project* d ty m uic
body, to go ami diacover the North
pole, and no difficulty whatever la u
--coiintered m aeetiring men. On the
other hand a great many more present
themselves thau they have any pvwsihle
use for. Old men, -witli cue loot in the
grave, who think they can't lie 111 peace
until thny have seen the North poll,
and perhaps climbed it if they are feel
ing right well when they get there,
want to join the expedition; and young
men, who m ver stay out when the tin r
monii tor is at aero, and who cau't aleep
in a hod that hasn't been visit is! by a
warming-pan, are ready to tempt tlie
rigors of an Arctic winter. The expe
dition starts at length, ami we hear of
it on it* winding way, until it reaches
the ice field*. Then there is an interval
of silence, attended by aginnriug sus
pense on the part of those who have
relative* or friends on board, and li en
at length come* intelligence of the <i
peditiou being beret with ice, iu lati
tude something, longitude—something
else, aud fifty miles northeast of Cape
Nowhere. The sympathies of the world
are excited by the intelligence, and i x
peditions are gotten up to go to their
relief. Sometimes iv'.ief arrives in sea
son, and then again it does not. In the
latter case strenuous effort* are mu.le
to secure suae relies of the adventun us
but unfortunate explorers, and it a
rnsty knife or a spoon engraved with
the name of one of the lost ships is dis
covered, the news is sent to every part
of Christeudiwn. We should like to ask
what good these {.Hilar expeditions have
ever accomplished. True, employment
is afforded to a number of Esquimaux,
with their di>gs and sledges, in search
ing for ships and ships' crews lost in
the vast fields of ice, but that hardly
justifies the expedition. The scientific
world, in whose interest these pursuits
of the pole are chiefly couducted, will
have to wait, we think, until balloon
navigation is perfected before their in
formation regarding the N. F. can bo
greatly expanded.—Cicinn<i.'i Aafur

First—Know that a person recently
drowned is not dead, and will not be
for s Song time. If not lively he is yet
Ufeful. Be not, then, alarmed nor un
duly excited, bnt let "faith, hope and
chanty" inspire confidence and a
cool jnlgmenl to aid with deliberate
haste in taking the drowned ont of the
water and iu restoring him.
Secondly—When he is taken ont of
the water turn his face down for a mo
ment only, to allow any wafer in his
nose or throat to run ont; then place
him. ont at currents off sir, upon his
back, with his head very slightly raised.
Do not roll him upon a barrel, nor do
anything else to '• get the water oat of
his lungs," since there is none in toem;
nor out of his stomach, since wb-'t he
has swallowed will not do anv harm.
Thirohr—Quickly determine whether
he mast be curried to where heat is, or if
it can better be brought to or produced

gently, quickly and aa near us possible
in the above said posture.
Fourthly—lf there must be delay in
applying heat, and dry prospective* ean
be had, take off his wet clothes and
wrap the dry articles about him to pre

of bystanders can be contributed. Sev

Fifthly—As soon as heat is at hand
apply it as ingenuity and circumstances

T. S. JAimbrrt,
The laute o! a Mine Explosion.
Some peculiar features of mining
casualties were developed at a coroner's
inquest on the bodies of William Crone
ami Thomas Tiernay. who died from in
juries received by an explosion of fire
damp, at the Lower Rausch Creek col
liery, near Pottsville, Pa. These men
were working with safety-lamps on the
bottom level of the mine, 1,900 feet
below the surface. The vein in which
they worked made no ga, but another
beneath it. with about nine feet of slate
between, gave forth gas in quantities so
great as to force up the solid slate-cov
ering in the centre of the breast, the
pressure of the strata above, of course,
helping. The movement caused a
rumbling and crackiDg, which the men
thought came from the roof, and they,
together with the fire boss, James
O'Neill, aijd a miner named Jacob
Imschweller, were watching that part,
when the noise became so violent that
they ran into the heading, fearing that
the roof would fall. The roof, however,
remained undisturbed. The meD had
scarcely left the breast when the floor
heaved up. opened, and a volume of
gas poured forth, which at once filled
the whole place. O'Neill and Imsch -
weller, fortunately for them, darted
into the pawage leading inward from
the breast; but Crone and Tiernay en
tered the "intake" passage. Crone,
knowing that a strong current of aii
would force the flime through the
meshes of his lamp and set fire to the
gas, shielded his lamp as he ran, but
Tiernay neglected this precaution. The
gas iguited from bis lamp, and a terrible
explosion followed. Crone and Tiernay
were so badly burned that they died in
a few hours, while the others, being
behind the explosion, which alwajH
takes an witward course, were onlv
slightly injnred by being dashed aga ust
the coal The wood work of the mine
was shattered for a distance of 100
yards, and a lioy named Grady received
fatal injuries from a door which fell on
him. The mine was then being in
spected for the third time that day (the
explosion occurred at noon), and 1k,576
cubic feet of air per minute waa then
passing through that portion of it. The
jury returned a verdict that "the de
ceased came to their deaths from the
effects of an explosion caused by run
ning through the giswith their sa f ety
lamps against, instead of with, the air
current."
Totted Like a Ball.
" He will surely violently turn and
toss thee like a ball into a large coun
try." (Isaiah, xxii., 18.) Many have
no doubt marvelled much as to what
could be the physical fact intended by
this simile. A correspondent of the
London Note* and Querie* used to
wonder till he was a witness to the
sight. He was in the island of Mitylene
during a great storm of wind in winter-
There is a plant, not unlike wormwood,
which grows into a compact globular
form, with very stiff ttalks and branch's.
In winter it dies down to the ground,
and in its dry and light condition iB torn
from its roots by the wind, and set
bounding over the wide and unenclosed
country. He has seen five or six of
these coursing along at onoe— a vivid
emblem of a man at the mercy of a
higher helpless to choose his
own course, or even find rest.
The Atlantic ('able
The New York Fwning Pott says, in
au article referring to the grand reoep
tion given at the honee of Cyrus W.
Field, t.i commemorate the twenty fifth
anniversary of the formation of the first
eonij auv to lay a telegraphic cable
across the Atlantic ocean :
As early as 1 Sod a copper wire, cover
ed witls gn'.ta pereha, was lain acro>s
the English channel between Dover and
Calais, but communication was kept tip
by it tor a sbort time only. It was re
placed next year by a cable of four
wires, which is stall working. Btill
earlier a wire had been laid across the
Koine, a distance of only halt a mile,
and within a few years several other
submarine cables were laid, but they
were all short and in shallow water.
The longest was tlie Holland cable,
which was stretched for but one him
dred and thirty miles aud in water
but a few fathoms in depth. No at
tempt was made to establish telegraphic
communication across the Atlantic until
ISM, wueii the " New York, Newfound
land and Loudon Telegraph company "
was formed iu Mr. Field house the
same which he now inhabits iu Oromer
cy park. The agreement to organise
tins company was signed in Mr. Field's
diuing-roomon the 10th of March, ISM,
by Mr Field, Peter (.'-ooper, Mose* Tay
lor. Marshall O. Hubert* and Chandler
While. David Dudley Field we pres
ent on the occasion as counsel, aud went
with his brother Cyrus Hi St. John* to
obtaiu the charter, which declared the
object of the company to be " to estab-
lish a line of telegraphic communica
tion between America and Europe by
wv of Newfoundland."
Mr. White dud soon after, and was
succeeded by Wihau I). Hunt. Wheu
the hue to Newfoundland was com
pie tod Cyrus W. Field went to Loudon,
where he organized the Atlantic Tele
graph compauy in 18V>. In the follow
ing year an attempt was mail l to lay
the first transatlantic cablff, but it broke
when the ships were about three huu
dred miles from tlie <va*t of Ireland,
and tlie enterprise was snapeoded. Iu
1858 a second attempt wa maile. The
American man-of war Niagara and the
English man-of war Agamemnon sailed
for the middle of the Atlantic, where it
was intended that they should join
cables and then sail back, east and west,
ti> carry the two ends to their respect
ive countries. A violent storm arose
before the vessels met, in which the
Agamemnon narrowly escaped founder
ing, and after the cable wo* joined it
parted several times, so that the expe
ditioti was abaudoutvl. In the summer
of the some year another effort was
made with success, and the result was
hailed with public rejoicings; but al
though messages were exchanged be
tweeu England and the United States,
and the practicability of the project Was
demonstrated, communication was main
tained for only three weeks. It was re
established in 18<56, after two new cables
had been manufactured. One of the
latter was partly laid in 1865, hat broke
in mid-ocean. It was fishtd up in the
following year aud carried to the coast
of Newfoundland.
The cable of 1858 was the pioneer of
deep-sea telegraphy throughout the
world. In consequence of its suoon*,
temporary as it was, cables were laid in
the Mediterranean, the Bed sea, the
Persian gulf, the Arabian sea and the
bay of Bengal, down the Malayan pe
ninsnla to lVnang and Singapore, along
the coast of Asia to China, and across
to Japan. Lines wt-re also carried to
Java and aero** to Australia and New
Zealand, while in the western world
cables were laid to Cuba, the West
India islands, and aloDg the coast of
South America.
Of the person* who composed the
original Atlantic cable company, ail ex
cept Mr. White are now living!
•smoking Out a Tiger
The outer cave was quite op>cn in
front, and seven feet high at the outside.
From the cave the hill sloped sharply
down, covered with trees and bushes.
Some of tlie Bheels advanced to the
month of the inner cave, and, looking
in, saw one eye of the creature, like a
ball of tire, at the far end of the den.
We endeavored to get a shot, but
owing, I suppose, to some projecting
piece o( rock, we never conld see both
eves at once, and two shots which I
fired were without effect
Meanwhile the itheels had collected a
large bundle of grass and sticks, which
we rolled up to the entrance of the inner
cave; and having set fire to it, we all
withdrew to the month of the outer to
watch the result There was a moat
thorough draught into the cave, but the
beast made no sign, and at length the
fire died down.
We then had another large bundle of
dry grass male up; but this time we
mixed with it green leaves. On this
being fired, a dense, black smoke arose,
and was carried into the cave. It was
snch tbM we thought no beast could live
in it. But again the fire died out; and,
though tbo inner cave was filled with
smoke, its tenant made no attempt to
come out.
We had just made np our minds that
he hail died in the hole, when from the
inner cave came a sudden rush of smoke,
as if driven out by something advancing
rapidly. We stood ready, and the next
instant, through the embers of the tire,
came -not a hyena—but a large titrer,
charging blindly with savnge growls.
Hayward carried a short rifle, with a
ball of some three ounces in weight, and
I had a double rifle of fourteen bore.
In the instant that elapsed between
the tiger's emerging from the smoke
and his reaching the entrance of the
onter cave, he was struck by the three
balls. Two had taken him throngh the
shoulder, and one through his loins,
disabling bis hind quarters.
As he fell we could have placed our
guns, on his head—too near, in fact, to
be Our followers behave]
with ffreat steadiness, end at once
handed ns our second guns.
The tiger, though disabled, was very
savage, and had plenty of life in him,
and crunched the underwood savagely.
After some time we gave him his
quietus, ami carried him home to the
camp.— Sport in India.
French Hooters.
The fees which French physicians re
ceive, says the London A etc*, would
seem to their English brethren very
low. I gather from a recent ooutroversy
in the papers that some leading London
practitioners lately raised their fee for a
first consultation to two guineas. In
Tans the bc*t physicians expect four
dollnis for a consultation at home, and
eight dollara if they go out; but a rather
exaggerated sentiment of professional
delicacy prevents them, as a rule, from
demanding more than a patieut chooses
to give. The table of a bnsy ddctor is
littered over with gold-pieces so group
ed as to convey the bint that fees of
one, two or three napoleons have been
received; but if a patient lays down two
dollars, or even one, he receives his bow
and thanks without a protest, the doctor
assuming (ofteu wrongly) that the man
has given all he can afford. In country
towns one dollar is the usnal fee, but
forty cents are often given by men who
ought to know better, and forty cents is
j the invariable fee which village doctors
put down per visit when sending in
their bills at the end of the year. One
is ashamed to say thai these doctors'
bills often give rise to the sorriest hag
gling, for there exists a crooked opiuioD
| that a physician should regard himself
as a philanthropist, and pay his butcher's
! kills with the mere thanks of his pa
tients. A country doctor attends a
; prosperous peasant proprietor, day after
day for weeks, supplies medicines,
effects a cure, and at the end of the
j year is treated as an extortioner because
he has charged a sum which will barely
pay for the wear and tear of the horse
and gig. Some doctors draw a regular
salary from a medical club; but these
are the worst nsed of all, for every mem
! ber of the club feels bound to take out
five or six times the value of his sub
| soription in doctor's visits, even if he
have nothing the matter with him.
The man who dreamt he dwelt in
marble halls woke up to find that the
bedclothes had tumbled off.

The soft chip bonnet i* the style far
Strcef fence of the season, a very differ
cut thing from the straw of former
times, and it is crowned with masses of
flowers, small field blossoms and gar
den flowers, nothing larger than the
fashionable small n*cs or the brilliant
little peering* that look like drops of
red blood ou the green terraced sides
of the rowd a* one travels toward Houcu,
in Normandy. Smaller blossoms and
more delicate ones, however, have the
preference, daisies, buttercups, branch
es of pale heather, blue bells, the starry
clematis and w.hxl violet. The form
which the florwl ornaments take is that
of wreaths, not fall or stiff, but imper
fect, sud arranged with a mass ou the
top which fills the front of the bonnet
like an Alsacion bow, and terminates at
the sides in drooping sprays, which may
bo Carried to the back or disposed in
conjunction with shells of plaitrvl Bre
ton lace. Breton loos finely plaited and
used in proportion is a charming aoces
sory of the spring bonnet*, and lends it
self most happily to the soft blending of
color in the silk trimming fabrics and
the natural bu*i of flowers and foliage.
Shapes, without being very much al
tered, are improved. There is, per
haps, less diversity than last year, the
square crown and open brim having ob
tained a decided onoendancy. But for
this reason they seem to possess more
character, and when tastefully trimnual
are foand to be very becoming. Every
thing that is stiff or starchy in fabric or
design is avoided. The silks are soft
and crapey, and blend the most delicate
colors in little flowerets or iuCheue pat
terns. The ribbons are striped and very
rich, with solid center, in a light or
mastic tint, and clustered or brocaded
border. There are also moire ribbons
in all the mastic shades, bnt the most
elegant styles, and those which lend
themselves to the greatest variety of or
namentation, are the narrow brocaded
ribbons inwrought with g Id or silver
threads.
Ribbons are quite a feature of modern
fashions, so largely are they used for
trimming dresses, lingerie and other
articles for house decoration as well as
bonnets.
A great many black dresses of short
walking length have been prepared for
the intermediate season, ami for these
cashmere or fine camel's-hair is this year
preferred to silk. The most fashionable
are trimmed with hand embroidery,
execated in small fioral designs, such aa
forget-me-nots, daisies and the like.
There is nothing striking or pronounced,
however, in the effect winch is thus
produod. The shades of blue are so
blended, with shades of olive, with tints
of white, so lost in tones of brown, that
it is difficult to tell where one ends and
the other begins; besides thp embroid
erv is not carried as a border around
the overskirt or polonaise as formerly,
but forms a plastron around the front
of tbe basque, cuffs upon the sleeves,
aud perhaps a piece which is used as n
strap in some irregular fashion upon
the draoery of the skirt. A little fichu
ormantalet, or a jacket, upon the pockets,
collar and cuffs of which the embroidery
is repeated, accompanies these dresses,
which are always made with trimmed
skirt and deep, close-fitting basque, and
the costnmo is completed bv a bonnet
of black straw or chin with ilower trim
ming matching the flowers in the em
broidery on the dress.
Dark dress* swill, however, soon be
displaced by the mastic shades, which
have reappeared in great variety, and
the beautiful qnalities of camei's-hair
silk and satin ; bv the spring silks in
Chene patterns and small broken checks,
ami by the summer cottons, which are
now so fine iu quality anil so exquisite
in design that silk for summer wear is
not needed.
The "soft" or foulard-finished cam
brics have beeu a feature of the sum
mer styles for several years past; very
highly appreciated by jsdies of reflueil
tastes. But these are now quite cast
into the shade by the new sateens, which
have not only the lovely finish of tinted
satin in the ground work, but reproduce
the effect of the richest fabrics in the
delicate, long-stemmed floweret aud leaf
patterns, which seem to lie thrown upon
the surface. The designs are very small,
aud the fibrons steins, more like fila
men's than stalks, and the shades of
color are such delicate miitnren of olive
green and china-blues, of old-fashioned
pink and woody-brown, that they can be
worn by persons of the most refined aud
delicate taste. Doubtless they awu and
will be vulgarized by association with
solid masses of striking color, but if
these pretty fabrics are need in their
purity and trimmed with laoe or white
embroidery, and perhaps ribbon bows in
two or three of the shades of the design,
they will be charming—the prettiest
toilets in the world for garden parties
and morning wear at onr fashionable
watering-places.— Jamie June, in A>t/>

wheu he began to grew red in the face
she yielded, and he led off. At the

as she raked him in.
" I don't pr*' anything to gnu at," he
sneered, as he moved a man backward.
"Here! rou can't move that way!"
she cried ont.
"1 can't, eh? Perhaps I never
played checkers before you were bom."
She saw a chance to jump two more
men. and gave IU the point; but its she
movisl he cried out:
"Put them taeu right Imck there!
I've concluded not to move backward,

She gave in again; but when he

In about two mintttiw she jumped two

" A king can jump any way."
" No, bo can't!"

"Don't talk Iwmk to me, Martha

The Han Francisco journal* contain
an account of what they call a California!)
Crusoe, an Indian woman who had for
eighteen years lived alone on a dreary
Jce*rt island, and was finally discovered
and taken off by the crew of a vessel in
aoarch of her. Many Tears ago a small
schooner was sent to the island of Han
Nicholas, in the I'acifle, some seventy
five miles southeast of Hautn Barbara,
to bring away a nnml>er of IndiuDH liv
ing there and settle them on the main
land. Nineteen men, women and children
had been got on board, when one of
them, a mother, found that two of her
offspring had been left behind. Hhe
immediately jumped overboard and
swam to the island, where she sought
in vain for her children. Having re
turned to the shore, sho saw the
schooner sailing awav, and tried in vaiu
to attract attention. ; rhe island waa not
visiter! again for sixteen years. Then
George Nidever, an otter-hnnter, com
manding a small vessel, lander! there,
and detected evidences of human habi
tation, but could not stay long enough
to prosecute his quest, •• o yesrs after
he sailed there again ami, roaming over
the island, came upon the woman, who
was not at all wild, and made no effort
to escape. Mho was clad in n garment
fashioned of the skin of a sea-fowl, and
was occupied in skinning seal blubber,
which had formed the greater part of
her diet. Hhe was quite good-looking,
aeemed about fifty years old, and spoke
a language nobody conld understand.
She died a few weeks after reaching
Santa Barbara, while living in the house
of Nidever, from the effect* of a fall se
riously injuring her spine.

The American Flag.
The flag of the United Htatcs was
originally adopted liy act of Congress
June 14, 1777. It was then composed
of thirtsim stripes and ornaments*) with
thirteen stArs, beeanse there were thir
teeif separate States represented in the
Union. In 1794 Senator Rradley, of
Vermont, moved that tbe flag consist of
fifteen ttripes and fifteen stars, Ken
tucky and Vermont having been added
to the nnrober of Htatoa, and this was
adopted. In 1818 Congress went latok
|to the thirteen stripes, with a new star
for each new State, and thia is the pres
ent regulation for the regular flag. In
1799, when the revenue flag was adopt
ed, Tennessee had been admitted, and
there were then sixteen Htatoa, so the
flag had sixteen stripes. This haa never
In-en changed. Thus the revenue flag
has aixeeen perpendicular stripes, tbe
uuion being white with the national
arrna in dark bine and the regular flag
baa thirteen horizontal stripes, the
union being blue, with a whito star for
every State.
There are twenty-five Mennonite vil
lages in Manitoba, with 480 dwellings
and 2,481 resident*. The emigrant*
from Russia have 10,470 acre* under
cultivation, 862 horse* and some 2,600
oows and oxen, and have already large
stores of grain and other produce. They
are'growing rich rapidly, and prove the
very best of oitizens, settling all their
disputes among themselves, and having
in their oolony neither a constable nor a
lookup. * *
