From the new work, the il" Narrative Of the
Discovery Of the Fate of Sir. John Franklin
and his Companions" by Captain McClintock,
r. N, Ii. D., we have an account of the In
dams in the Arctic regions
These Esquimaux were all we'll clothed in
reindeer dresses and looked clean !; they appeared
to have abundance of provisions, but scarcely a
scrap of wood was seen amongst them which
had not come from the lost expedition. Their
sledges, with the exception of the one already
spoken of, were wretched little affairs. consist
ing of two frozen rolls OF seal skins coated with
ice and attached to each other by bones, which
served ms crosSbars. The men were stout,
hearty fellows, and the women arrant thieves,
but all were go1d humored and friendly. The
women were decidedly plain in fact, this term
would have been ALTERING to most of them yet
there Was a degree Of vlvAcity and gcnteness IN
the manners Of some that soon reconcIled US to
these Arctic specimens of the fair sex. They
had fine eyes and teeth, as well us very small
hands, and the young girls had fresh rosy
hue, not often seen in combination with olive
compilations.
Esqumuux mothers carry their infants on
their backs within their large fur dresses, and
where the babes can only be got at by pulling
them out over the shoulder. Whilst intent
upon my bargaining for silver spoons and forks

begging for needle for her child. need no
say gave it one as expeditiously as possible
yet sufficient time elapsed before the infant Wal
again putOut of sight, to alarm me considerably
for its safety in such a temperature. The ma
tives, however, seemed to think nothing of wha

He who believes that man can think him .

story that ostriches hatch their eggs by just

IT ls good sign to see man wiping the per,

a fellow wiping his mouth as he comes out Of a

1T is with honesty in one particular as with
wealth those that have the thing care less
about the credit Of it than those that have it
not.
IT is sid that the fumes of tobacco are very
destructive to some kinds of flowers. We have

discrimination lie does not begin until he has

He manif.sts warm aft ,ction for all which be-

We think was fully fixed and decided on the

A PLEASANT ITEM FOR LOVERS OF CHAMPAGNE.
AN American traveller in the streets of Paris
seeing the words, Wine baths given here, ex-
claimed Well, these French are a luxurious
people. Then with true Yankee curiosity, and
the feeling that he could afford whatever any
one else did, walked in and demanded wine
bath Feeling wonderfully refreshed after it,
and having to pay but five francs, he asked, in
some establishment how wine bath could be
Afforded 50 cheaply His sable attendant, who
had been slave in Virginia, and enjoyed sly
bit of humor, replied, Oh, massa. we Jest pass
it along into aHudder room, where we glib baths
at four francs. Then you throw it away,T
suppose. No, massa den We send it lower
down, and charge three francs bath. Oars
plenty of people who amt SO berry particular,
who will battle in it after this, at two francs
head. Den, massa, we let's de common people
hah it at franc apiece Then of course YOU
throw itaway,' exclaimed the traveller, who
Thought this was going even beyond Yankee
profit No, indeed, massa,' was the indignant
reply, accompanied by profound bow no,
indeed, massa, we are not SO stravagant as dat
Comes to; VIC jest bottles il up den, and sends
1T to 'Merica, for champagne!

and walked to another part of the farm, and
down another way to his tavern.
That night, after the storm had passed, the
nights work done, and tine evenings prayers
said with thankful spirit, Mrs. Howard laid
her head upon her pillow with happier heart,
calmer spirit, and frmer faith than shs had
done in a long time before. She fully believed
that the midnight Of her suff'rings was ended,
and that the dawn of IL more perfect happiness
was breaking around her Thus do we oft times
dream of safety, in the very midst of the most
awful danger!

he would have no more, and was satisfied to

In that we'll the water is now thirteen feet deep,
while in the deep hole % pacrs west of it, not

In conclusion, will say that my opinion re-
specting the cause Of the ice in the Frozen Well
is the same lis heretofore expressed in your pa

P.S. Prof. LOomis, who remained at Bran
don about one week last fall, predicted that no
more ice would ever be found in the Brandon
well but he is mistaken, and hence his theory
falls to the ground.
