THE Radical, OF last week, contained no.
tice OF Burgess Chapel that we suppose
would not have been inserted had the editor
been appraised of the facts. The Chapel has
recently undergone thorough repairs, and at
the time the notice was penned, logs were at
the saw mill out of which TO make plank for
a fence. James p. Burgess, after whom the
Chapel was named, is one of the oldest
Methodists in Wayne county: For twenty
two years prior to the erection of the ChaEe
his house was a regular preaching place, and
frequently quarterly meetings were held
there. Mr.. B. informs us that he never con-
sidered his house crowded with guests until
their number exceeded the planks in the floor.
Our old friend is "hale and hearty" Ind will
doubtless live many years to entertain timer
ants, who are always sure of go cd quarters
when they call on him.

teectual Character. The lecturer commenced by
saying that the subject he had TO SPEAK OF was the
long agtated problem OF the way 10 the Nortn
Pole. Columbus ana yasco de Cana had
nourshed and made their efforts In this
direction long before the seventeenth century had
developed the fact OF connection between tho
Arctic ana Antarctic oceans. Since that time
several enterprises for the disco very the passago
to the North Pole were undertaken, but had failed
Tor the want or any well defined plan. Captain
Halt the great explorer, was soon, he was happy %
say. to start with an expedition under the Amert
eau nag for the purpose Of making one more eJors
towards thus much desired discovery. Az

places immediately after the Mexican war. tAe
Lecturer proceeded To say that after the return Of

placed IN his hands for the purpose OF discovering

streams were buried in the ocean they radlated o.

such wonderful power to possess heat. It did not
seem impossible to him that they emitted heat

Bent by way OF Behring straits the first scien-
tincexperiment ever suggested. Nothing but tho
most urgent necessity had prevented mariners from
trying all other points, but they never dreamt OF

tain Hail that not one serious effort had yes
been made to reach the Pole BY way or
