A letter dated the Goth ult. says:
''Dr. Kane, the Arctic explorer, arrived

very low from the effects of stroke Of para
lysis on the passage out. lie seems a little
better since landing, but his physicians think
that it is very doubtful if he ever leaves here.
Spanish-like, the officials took not the least
notice of his arrival here, not even did the
papers mention it. would not have official
honors paid him, but a man who has given
his life to the cause of humanity and science
certainly deserves some little notice"

A Coon TrME.--Just now as the year
begins is good time to subscribe for The
Wing. There ale hundreds of persons in the
county who do not take it, who would find it
valuable to them OH account Of its County
News and Advertisements, independent of its
General News and miscellaneous reading. Its
circulation is steadily increasing, and we are
under many obligations to those who have
sent us lists Of subscribers, and have no
doubt there are many others who, with a
word, could obtain US one, two, five or ten
new subscribers, thus, as we dare suppose,
benetitting both the publisher and those who
take the paper. Now, as this is good time
to subscribe, may we not hope to add many
names 10 our list in the month to come.
