A singular triumph OF affection and ofart
is related by the Portsmouth IN. H)
Chronicle. Jonathan Dearborn, of that
place. lost an interesting little daughter Of
eight years, of whom no likeness remained
except such as was pictured in the memo
ries Of surviving friends. A brother of
the deceased, mere boy, insisted that
90 portrai: of his little sister might be
obtained from such description as no could
give the artist, and in spite Of renonstran-
ces he started for Boston with the purpose
of carrying out the idea. His plan was to
visit all the picture galleries to which he
could oba / access, and by selecting one
feature from one picture and another from
another thus get combination that should
answer 10 the picture that was SO vividly
impressed upon his memory. And, strange
to say, after nu,nbsrless discou gements
and two outright failures, the enthusiastic
boy succeeded even beyond his own ardeIt
expectations, and had The satisfaction OF re-
turning home with portrait that was re.
cognized as most beautiful and correct
likeness OF the dear lost one.

LIFE IN THE ARCTIC RroIoNs.-We find
in the accounts Of DR.. kASE's expedition
the following description Of the way in
which those intrepid voyagers passed their
time on shipboard -
Lille on shipboard regul,r and orderly.
There was time for every thing, and
every thing in its place. DR.. Kane and the
officers were untirng in the discharge of
the duties of their posts, and the men ap-
peared contented and hearty. The ship
was abundanty provisioncd, and the diet
was wholesome and various. At seven
bells, or about 7 Ia o'clock in the morning,
all hands turned out. Breakfast was taken
at eight. The duties OF the ship were then
performed the decks were cleaned, and
things put in order for the day. Sledge
parties were then appointed for the sake of
exercise, the short tips were made in diff
ferent dire ctions for two or three miles.
BY the time the parties had all returned TO
the ship it was nearly noon. At four bells
(two o'clock) dinner was served. After
this there was nothing to do, except to
read, talk, laugh, if there was anything to
laugh at, keep warm, anl be jolly. Anoth.
er meal presently followed, and at nine or
ten O'Clock at night the ship and all in it
were silent; the lights, except those above
deck, were exdnguished, and the watches
were set. This, with very slight variations,
was the regular routine on board the ship
during the whole period of nearly two
years. No regular rations Of spirits were
served out. 1t was very necessary to have
liquor in csses of sickness, but none was
used regularly, fore or aft"
