An ARcTIc Boat JOURNEY in the Autumn of 1854,
BY ISAAC |. HAYES, Surgeon Of the Second Grin
nell Expedition. Boston +: Brown, Taggmd Il
Chase Brattleboro, for sale by FELTON,.
This book is supplementary to the narrative of Dr.
Kane's Arctic Expedition and completes the record.
While the brig 4idrrnce, under the command Of Dr.
Kane was detained in Rensselaer, lIabor in the autumn
Of 1854 DR. Hayes with seven Others of her officers
and crew made nm attempt to reach by boats Upper
navicx in North Greenland, the nearest outpost Of
civilization. The party were absent from the brig
nearly four months and they returned unsuccessful.
The details Of this boat Journey are contained in the
volume before us, and they constitute one Of the most
exciting and startling tales of personal narrative, ad
venture, suffering and resolution that we have ever
met with. The story Of hard,hips Suffered and IA
tguc endured in the humane and scientific expedition
to the Polar seas one which for thrilling and absorb
ing interest has counterpart in the field of romance

dent that they can be rendered unfit subjects
for free governments which is the natural
tendency of slave power.
If there is already large floating population
in Texas who want employment, why not offer
it to them upon an inter-oceanic railroad which
the interests of the country so imperiously de-
mandsP The million or more of money now
exacted for worse than useless purpose in
Texas, when added to that which has been so
senselessly squandercd in Utah, would go a
great way in constructing such read, and
would give a wholesome, honest employment to
thousands of young men.
But the amendment for the million Of dol
lars, though it has passed the Senate by large
majority, will probably be defeatedin the House;
and if so, we shall have the extraordinary spec
tacle of the House becoming mere conserva-
tive and dignifed body than the Senate. The
object of the amendment may possibly be mcre-
ly tactical, with the expectation q coupling its
defeat in the House with an odium that shall
render rcpubEcanisin less palatablc in certain
parts of Texas. 1t is possible that the Senate,
i'll voting the amendment, has lent Itself to
mere political trick. We cannot conceive it
consistent with the true character of that body
to consent to any unnecessary expenditure of
the treasure, in whatever shape the object may
be presented. That the Treasury is wealthy OF
plethoric offers no repose for senatorial dignity
in a case of useless OUTLAWS of moneys for econ
omy is republican virtue, in which the Senate
ought to set the example; and in fact, we doubt
if the Senate would lose much in that consider
alton which is due to its own character if It
should show towards the Lieutenant General Of
the United States Army some of that consider
alton which is due to his. 1t is questionable On
the other hand, whether they are sufficiently
considerable of the dignity and interests of the
country in failing to do SO. :. ". T.

NEW HAMPSHIRE ELECTION.

Two or three weeks previous to the election
the republicans of New Hampshire completed
their canvass of the State, and found that after
making an equitable distribution of the doubt
full votes, they should be able to give their can
didate for governor about 1900 majority. The
election has been held the returns are COM
plete and the result on the State ticket is ma
jority of 1893 for the republicans. If any 9TH
er State can be canvassed as closely we should
delight in seeing the figures. The vote of last
week is the largest ever polled in the State and
is as follows: whole number of votes 71,4l0;
Ichabod Goodwin has $4,000, and Asa p. Cate
33,4l0.
The Council is unanimously republican,
gain of one over last year; the Senate will
stand 10 republicans and 2 democrats, against
s republicans and 4 democrats last year; in the
House of Representatives the republicans will
have majority of So.
This victory seems to lack no element oil

that his acceptance of this appointment will

import is unmstakable. While the republicans
are iustifably jubilant at such an suspicious
opening of the great campaign Of 1860, their
opponents cannot conceal their chagrin at de-
feat so Notifying. The Patriot on the morn
ing succeeding the election disclosed as much
disappointment as could well be condensed into
the same number of lines while it states the un-

PREcocIoUs.-The Massachusetts, Registra-
ton Report for 1858, contains case of youth
full precocity without parallel in this country,
Under the head of illegitimate births was one,
the report says, deserving especial notice in con-
sequence of the extreme youth of the mother:
elizabeth D. was born of native parents
in the almshouse at Taunton, May "a, 1917, and
at the same place she became the mother of a
healthy boy on the first day of February, 1858,
at the non-nubile age of only ten years, eigat
months and Seren days! This case is well at.
tested by the physician of the almshouse, DIR.
A. Baylies, who oiiiciated professionally at the
birth of the young mother, and also at that of
her hopeful son. This specimen of "Young
America" weighed at birth eight pounds, and
at the age of eighteen months 81 1-2 pounds,
and was in the enjoyment of robust health at
the last accounts"

HORRIBLE MASSACRE OF INDIANS IN Up
PER CALIFoRNIA.-A horrible and indscrim-
nate massacre Of Indians by the white settlers
was committed on Sunday morning, Feb 26, in
the several villages on Humboldt bay, and it is
believed, also, in those on Eel river, extending
into the interior from the bay. The location is
in one Of the upper coast counties of California.
At daylight, on the morning in question, more
than 40 Indians were killed, three quarter OF
them women and children, on Indian Island,
opposite the town of Eureka, and but few hun
drcd yards distance. The massacre was perpe-
trated by party of forty white men, On the
beach at south entrance of Humboldt bay, 40
or 80 more Indians were similarly massacred,
being every redskin at that village. 1t was be-
licycd at Eureka that a simultaneous attact was
made the same morning on the Indian villages
on Eel river, and from what was known. not les:
than 200 Indians men, women and children
were killed. Those deeds were perpetrated bS
the farmers and grazers of the Eel river coun.
try, who have suffered from Indian depreciation,
during the past year they claim that the peace
full Indians around Humboldt bay have furnished
aid and ammunition to the hostile Indians il
the mountains, and hence war of extermina
tons has commenced.

A "SCENE" AT THE HARVARD LAW School
Yesterday morning, while Prof. Joel Parker was
addressing the students of the Cambridge Law
School upon constitutional law, he adverted. for
the purpose of illustration, to the mission of Mr.
lloar to South Carolina. lIereupon the South
ern students present felt impelled to indulge in
applause. This being rightly construed by the
Northern boys as an expression of approval of
the conduct Of the South Carolnians toward
Mr. Hoar, they responded with Misses Prof
Parker exhibited much feeling at these unusual
demonstrations, and in expressing his regret at
the occurrence, took occasion to remark that,
for twelve years past, similar experience had
not betallen him as a lecturer. After what had
taken place, however, he would improve this
opportunity TO say that, although the police reg
ulat!ons of South Carolina might afford some
extenuation for the behavior toward Mr. Hoar,
yet the conduct of her citizens on that occasion,
more than any other single act, had operated to
create the existing unpleasant differences be-
tween the North and South. Prof Parker also
took occasion to assure the students that he
should not be deferred by any expressions of
