THE ARCTIC EXPLORATIONS OF CAPTAIN
HALL.
New LONDON. Conn.,. Sent. %. 1s

NEW LONDON, Conn., Sept. 49, 1860.
Neither OF the sailors recently arrived here from
Hudson's Bay and who are spoken OF as Captain
Halls men was with that gentleman when he made
bis trip to Prince Williams Land, and that appears
to be the only trip Of his Arctic perambulations that
has any fresh interest for the public Halls plan In
his nve years. sojourn has been to winter among
the Indians at Repulse Bay, In Melville
Peninsula and to make excursions during
the summer to the various places accessible
from that point at which there was any
probability he might get trace OF Frankins expedf.
ton. One Of the sailors here, named Lawler went
with him on one Of these excursions In the summer
OF 1868. This excursion was first to Coglit Island,
and was extended thence to Hecla and Fury straits.
Lawler was at Repulse Bay on whaer from New
Bedford, In August 1867, when Captain Hall came
on board and induced him and others to join his
Arctic search. He passed the winter with Hall
at that place, living as Hall dh among
the Indians, and the intention then was To
visit Prince Williams Land In the next summer;
but some stories heard among the Indians during
the winter led TO a change OF purpose and the
visit instead to Cogit Island In March, 1868. This
was journey OF 800 miles across Melville PENN.
sula, and was made with two teams OF dogs,
there being In the party only Hall and LAWYER Of
white men, with two indian guides and their wives.
The ride across the pathless snowcovered hills on
which the Indians guide their course as pilots do,
by Keeping a definite relation to known points,
occupied fifteen days and proved quito rruitless. Al
COgt, however, they were induced to 90 further,
and on the shore Of Hecla and Fury straits did find
some indications Of there having been an encamp.
ment Of some persons provided with tents. Only
the bare indications Of the print of the encampment
remained however, and the vague report among
the Indians that white men had been there but
few years BEFORE Returning from this trip the party
reached Repuse Bay at the end OF June. Hall went 10
Prince Williams Lana in the next year. 1869, and
then was not accompanied by any white man.

New PAPERS IN BOsToN.-Withn week
or two several new papers have been started
in Boston. News, science, prohibition and the
peculiar interests of the Club are embraced
in the crop. This is good thing for the paper
makers, provided they get the cash for the
white paper they sell. The fact is, there is
hardly really good paper issued in Boston.
Several are large enough, are well printed
enough, and wear an air of quasi gentility.
But they lack the element of sound journalism;
they are deficient in liberal and sagacious man
agement, and their editorial columns evinoe
neither ability, tact, ingenuity nor comprehen-
siveness, Independent of the peculiar isms of
New England. If every paper in Boston
should cease publication to-day the world out
side would be none the worse off, if any the
wiser.

Poor Father HYacinthe! He Ia under the
ban of the Church. A late telegram informs
US that his case is to be made the subject Of
canonical investigation. His excommunica-
ton, 1t is added, is probable. A telegram
from Paris, which we print to-day, informs us
that the good father, who loves reason more
than faith, liberty Of opinion more than eccle-
siasticai unity, is not to be left alone. He is
to be defended in the Council by such men as
the Bishops Of Avignon, Rheims, Chalons and
Bayeux If such men have promised to defend
him we cannot say poor Hyacinthe any more.
He is not likely to be left more to himself than
was Luther at Augsburg and at Worms; and
it is safe to conclude that his friends at the
Vatican will be more numerous than were
the friends of Luther at the Council of Trent
We do not imagine, however, that Hya-
clnthe is to prove himself another
Luther. 1t is doubtful whether, with
all his excellencies, he has in him the
stuff out Of which great reformers are
made Hyacinthe is only Frenchman. Lu-
Their was German. The difference means
something. We do not expect more from the
good father than sort of neutral tint reform
1t will not be very decided. Still he may go far
enough, considering the backing he has got, to
cut off the Gallican Church from Rome. We
dare not say that France cares very much for
the connection, or places very much value in
what some people call the one Church. The
truth is the French people are not very
churchy. What they worship is personal lib
erty. Grant them that and everything else
may go where it pleases. If Napoleon were
younger man he might have proved good and
powerful friend to Father Hyacinthe. AS it
is he may be useful But the Empress In
her lies the difficulty She is sure to hold on
by the Pope's coat tails. If Father Hyacinthe
is at all well backed up the Council will be
tremendous failure, and all our former predic-
tons will be fulfilled. Popery came in with
State patronage, which gave it local habita-
ton, if not name, under Charlemagne. 1t
will 60 out when State patronage ceases and
when there is no longer Charlemagne to sup
port it. Nor will any Eugene, holding on by
any coat tails or by the skirts of any garments,
by whatever name named save it.

The TARIFF AGITATION ALL FUDGE.-Tha
agitation about the tariff by the radical protec-
tionists on the one hand, and by the Western
democrats on the other, is all fudge. Ample
protection is afforded by the present tariff and
the necessities of the government, while it is
folly to talk Of very low tariff when we have
large amount Of specie to pay the interest on
the national debt. But little or no change
should or can be made at present, and our
public men should turn their attention to some.
thing more urgent and practical TO talk
about the tariff now is mere political claptrap
dnd waste of time.

TIE CANADIAN QUESTION. Judging by the
sentiments lately uttered in Canada and in tho
mother country it appears that some radical
change is fast approaching The North Amer
lean colony is both burden and source Of
annoyance to Great Britain. The Canadians
themselves do not care about paying fresh
taxes for the purpose of maintaining an
increased armed force in the colony, and infer
that If the home government think such steps
necessary for the protection of the colonies
it must also stand the expense. This is
explaining matters pretty freely. If they
think they can better themselves why do the
Canadians not vote constitution Prince
Arthur has now been with them for some
time, and they have had an opportunity to
study bis character II the dynasty suits
them why not put the question plainly to
him and obtain direct answer Surely such
an arrangement would amply satisfy the Bri-
tish government and at the same time provo
whether The people OF Canada are really able

The Approaching State Elections.

The State elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana, Iowa and Nebraska take place on the
18th October next-less than two weeks from
to-day. West Virginia holds her election on
the 23d proximo. These are the most impor-
tant elections that occur during the month of
October. The elections in New York, New
Jersey, Massachusetts, Maryland, most of
the Western States, together with Arkansas,
Louisiana, Alabama and Florida take place in
the early part Of November, South Carolina,
Mississippi and Texas closing up the list for
the fall campaign.
1t is impossible to predict with any degree
Of certainty how these States will go in these
elections. There are so many local issues
mixed up with puerly State election canvass
that democrats may be chosen where there
has been arepublican majority, and uics uersa.
Besides, the notorious bargains and sales, the
''truck and dicker' among politicians, forbid the
forming Of any reliable data upon which to base
a calculation as to which party will carry any
particular State-with the exception, perhaps,
of the candidate for Governor. And even
these surmises may be found at fault when
the question comes to be settled For example,
the democrats in Ohio, despairing of carrying
their candidate for Governor, may sell votes
for him in exchange for votes for members of
the Legislature, with the hope of securing
majority in that body. County officers may
also be bargained off in the same way. In
Pennsylvania the push made against Geary
may have a similar effect In short the forth
coming State elections may be set down as
Gratis turning up where least expected, and
perhaps being as much disappointed as any
body else.
But while the people in these local cam
paigns apparently manifest indifference as to
results, or exhibit their Partially and personal
preference for certain nominees, there is pro-
found sentiment lying at the base Of their
political principles which only Presidential
campaign can fairly bring out. That senti-
ment is their belief that Tho late soar aoas q
great national yfact-that it settled momentous
principles and established imperishable social
and political truths-and the people will no
more repudiate that sentiment than they will
repudiate the national debt. Upon that great
national fact the people have founded their
political faith and belief. From it they will
never swerve, but upon it they will rear
fabric of civil liberty capable of embracing all
nations and extending the blessings of free gov
eminent, including universal suffrage, to all
who may come or who may now be here
coolies, negroes and all the rest Of mankind
alike. The people recognize in President
Grant the embodiment Of this great national
fact, and If he be renominated in 1872, as the
signs upon the political horizon already portend
he is likely to be, he will sweep the whole
country like whirlwind.
Meanwhile, let the democrats pick up such
crumbs of comfort as they can in the interval
between the approaching State and the next
Presidential election.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1869-09-29

Next Tuesday the vote will be taken on the
question of consolidating the cities and towns
Of Hudson county. Despite the opposition of
Hobokenites, who, not unreasonably, are proud
Of their exceptional solvency, tho proposed act
''to consolidate and make into one city, to be
called Jersey City, the cities of Jersey City,
Hudson City, Hoboken, Bergen. the town of
Union, and the townships of North Bergen,
West Hoboken, Greenville, Bayonne and Wee
hawken, and part of the township of Kear-
ney," meets with general favor on the part of
patriotic and far-sighted Jerseymen. They
foresee that union will be strength and wealth
and glory. Hudson county can afford expan-
sion for century to a big city four or five
times as large as the New York of to-day.
Throughout the State immense improvements
in its system of agriculture and successful
efforts to drain and reclaim its extensive
Marshes and to develop its resources of iron
and zinc and marls, and to increase its manu-
features, have richly entitled it to the front
rank, which 1t might claim as one of the thlr-
teen original States Of the Union New Jersey
can no longer be sneered at as 'foreign coun-
try, or as mere bridge Of passage between
New York and Philadelphia. The marvellous
transformation of single tract Of ten thou
sand acres in the rear Of Jersey City-a tract
which not long ago was covered with eight TO
twelve inches Of water, and yielded nothing
except pestilential air, salt grass and mosqui-
toes, but which within single year has been
reclaimed by iron dykes, and is now so 6rm
and dry that cavalry may be deployed on it
that six hundred acres Of it are devoted to
vegetables and that on the rest of It three
hundred and sixty head of cattle, driven from
the far West, find repose and food, fitting
them, at enhanced, values for the New York
market, and that numerous factories are soon
to DO erected upon portions of it--ihis mar
vellous Transformation shows what the same
means may accomplish in New Jersey, all
along shore, as far as Bergen Point.
Jersey City is the nucleus Of a mighty and
splendid city. II has long cherished the

ambition of becoming port Of entry-an
ambition which the Western States will be
disposed to encourage through their Repre-
sentatives in Congress, even If its attainment
should ultimately result In the disappointment
Of their own desire for the transfer of the
capital of the United States from Washington
to some Western city. It Is certainly safe
to predict that New York, Brooklyn and
the consolidated cities of New Jersey
will, by and by. virtually form the metropolis
of the American Union, and such metro
polls as no European nation can boast of in
point of population, wealth, magniacence and
power. If the seat Of government is to be
changed and the marble structures in Wash
ington are to be removed 1t is far more likely
that the latter will be re-erected on the
reclaimed marshes Of New Jersey than in St.
Louis. at all events, the Jerseymen are mani
fesly bent on building up big city.
