uol for the North ro,e Again.

Scarcely have Dr. Kane and his men drop
ped their bcarskins and got comfortably warm
before another exploration Of the forbidden re- |
gions of the North is earnestly talked of. The
facts and observations of DR.. Kane in reference
to the great open sea beyond the ice region,
meagre as they necessarily are, have excited
great interest among scientific men, What has
heretofore been suggested by few is now con
sidered pretty we'll stablished-that there is a
vast open seq at the North, CONT .encng at
about so deg. and probably extending to the
pole. DIR. Kane testifes that the temperature
of the Dir rose as he approached the sea; that
its water was warmer than the ocean further
south; that ducks. seals. and herhiferens anmala
32xcsssssnes
shores. The inference is that the pole is not
| as we have supposed, the centre offrgIdity, but
that the coldest point is some fifteen degrees OF
more soutl, of it, and that the temperature at
| the pole is comparatively mild. There is in this
| a curious analogy with the fact that the circle
of highest heat does not coincide with the
EQUATOR. as we should naturally expect and as
the ancients believed, but more nearly with the
belts of the tropics, while the annual
temperature of the equatorial belt is considera-
bly, below that of the Almmer heat of the
tropics
Various theories are already earnestly dis
cussed by the savans to account for the open
sea at the North pole. Humboldt long ago
suggested that the internal heat of the earth is
discharged at the poles TIE question is, shall
the truth be songht by another Arctic exped-
tiou? 1, will cost treasure, and probably hu-
man life, but curiosity, far from being
appeased, is only stimulated by the results of
previous researches. It is suggested that by
pursuing more easterly route many of the
perils hitherto encountered would be avoided,
aud that with the experience of the past, the
voyage might now be undertaken with fair
prospect of safety aud success. Rash and futile
as the enterprise appears to prudent men, we
have little doubt that it will be attempted, and
by Americans. who will not allow any body to
take from them the honors aud rewards Of
scientific discovery Springfield RePublscan

The National Intelligencer publishes letter
from a. friend who has recently visited the
Crimea. and examined, with critical eye, It's
military works. Speaking Of the tremendous,
sweeping fire which the French had to meet, in
trenchiur toward the Malakoff for two miles
over q level narrow ridge, he says that France
will never know the number Of Frenehmen sac :.
ri6ced in those two miles. !" The MaiakoiI
itself he says, is not a steep tower, being only
twenty feet to its top above the level OF ap-
proaci by the French. but its great strength tn
Iay in its commanding position. and he thinks
- tha Rnssians had exercised extreme vigilance
thev moht have defied the French and every
thing else The French had trenshea up to to
| within sixty or seyenty-fve feet OF the Malakoh
| ,.oor,,ine to the estimates of several French
officers 10000 brave fellows fought their last
battle in tie assault on that famous tower.
The correspondent adds that the Russians
annear to be surrounded by very heavy fortifi
| cations on the north side, extending from bill
to hill ND the Tchernaya as far as he could SET
,y;th ~lass. The Qualifications, he says, ar
FAR stronger than those on the south side.

Execution cE TEsree MurGcrerg.


We find in the Lafayette (Ind) Courier, of
Friday an account of the execution of the
murderers, Rice, Driskll and Stocking. The
Courier says.
At ten minutes past two O'Clock, P NJ
Stocking, Rice and Drskill were duly executed
by the sheriff. Thomas Jefferson Chissom-the
Grst named for the murder Of John Rose, and
two latter for the murder of Cephas Earren-
bangh.
Atl2 O'Clock they were asked if they were
ready for dinner? Rice replied ''yes, I am
hungry" Drskill said that he wanted ga
good old dinner. as it was the last; he didn't
want to die hungry" He remarked to Rice,
''we1u get supper some there else, Abe" The
dinners were brought in and despatched with
great heartiness. After dinner, each of them
in turn washed and dressed himself for the final
moment They could not have made their
! toilet with more delberation aud GOODNESS if
they had been going to a frolic. DriskiiI, when
| washing, remarked through the window, near
which he was standing, to some outside, that
he ''gettinga good ready" In putting
on his shirt, Rice discovered that there a
button missing, DriskiH told him to sew one on
Rice replied that he hadn't time. Driskill
nonchalant!y rejoined that there was IAN hour
yet" He complimented Rice with looking
| id starchy" Rice, as he finished, observed
"Wel, gentlemen, reckon there was never a
/ willnger soul to die than / am" Stocking said
nothing, bht conducted himself Gas he did
throughont) with great dignity and frmness.
The sheriff then proceeded to adjust the fatal
| ropes. Rice requested that a stool which had
been placed for his accommo odation on the scaf-
fold might be removed, and on his request not
being Immediately complied with, be removed
it himself. He then knelt down, inclined his
head forward, remarked that he had "seen men
hung" by which we understood that he regard
ed that as the proper position. Driskill on
observing it said, Abe arc you going to kneel
rod fho,, fyrpua f1
Stocking and said 'tStock, which way is the
easiest to die-kneel or stand? I want to die
the easiest way" Stocking replied die
+ that he should stand unless he thought there
was danger of the rope breaking-Fhe sheriff
assured him there no danger Of the rope
breaking lie therefore stood up, but Dris
kill kneeled The caps were then drawn ovel
their faces, and at twenty-five and hal
: minutes after two O'Clock the bolt was with
drawn and the culprits launched into eternity

THE LAST OF BIDwELL.-We used to live
at Bidwell and publish the Record there,
and feel o sort of attachment to the old
place and cherish many "reminiscences of
happy lays that we have seen there, and
with half melancholy feeling we chronicle
the sad, painful circumstance, that she has
gone in lemons. Mr.. Bancroft, who once
presided over the affairs OF the old National,
now no more, was in town yesterday with a
wagon load of lumber. portion of one OF
one of the last houses that now mark the
spot where o county seat was once located,
and where temple of Thespis once afforded
the denizens of that hamlet an opportunity
of witnessing the legitimate drama, present
ed in all its purity, by brilliant and accom-
plished artists, " supported by the entire
strength of the company" Those were glo-
rious old days, but they have passed as has
the day of Bidwell's greatness, for what few
houses still remain there are either destined
for Oroville or.labeled " Bangor" Poor old
Bidwell, peace to its ashes and they
wouldn't be many if the whole town was to
burn down.
