An OPEN POLAR SEA.

A statement appeared in one of our
exchanges a few weeks ago to the effect
that whale had been captured north of
Behring's Straits, which had in its body
harpOon belonging to a ship which was
known to be cruising on the other side of
the continent, and this fact was stated to
show that the whale must have passed
through an open Polar sea. This fact has
brought to the mind of correspondent
of the New York Tribune that many
wears ago a similar incident was discov-
cred in Nantucket, when that port was
the great whaling station of the world
A barpooner, who had just returned from
a whaling voyage, discovered harpoon
at his boardinghOuse, and recognized it as
, weanon which he had lost in whale in
Bafin's Bay. To his surprise he was in
formed that the whale had been captured
off the coast of Japan, in which the

WHAT GEN. JACKSON SAID.

The Hon. Charles Francis Adams, who
was appointed Minister 10 England by
Mr.. Lincoln, in letter to the Young
Mems Jackson Association of Pittsburg,
in response to an invitation TO an annual
banquet, hits Grant as follow:
"When the distinguished hero whose
name your association bears, uttered these
memorable words, The Union sh al be
preserved he undoubtedly rested his
faith ON the spontaneous cooperation of
the great mass of the nation responding to
his call, and the legitimate channels pre-
scribed by organic laws. He never con-
templated the use of bsyonets in control
ling the forms of collecting the general
suffrage; for safety as nation lies in
going back to the first principles, forget
ting that force has ever been resorted to
as painful necessity TO preserve them.
What is bitter medicine should not be
turned into daily food"
can Old jackson Man," in the New
Orleans Times reminds Hon. Charles
Francis Adams that Jackson's memorable
expression was, ''The Union-it must be
preserved" He says:
''The high sense of accountability
which always actuated Gen. Jackson, as
well as his severe recognition of the rigid
Jules of taste in expression, would make it
impossible that he should have uttered the
sentiment in the boastful form you give
it. The imperative must, you will adj
NIT, is of very different import from the
boastful SHALL One has dignity, power,
purpose, classic severity and a fOrceful
suppression of the offending ego; the
other is arrogant and vain glorious, and
considering his relation to the work of
preservation, being the President of the
United States, as, unlike that great man,
as it would have been unworthy of the
high Office he dignifed by his heroism.
But sufficient for the argument is the fact
that his true words have been interpolat-
ed with the words and shalP as potsge
for political scullions."

MR. HoDGsoN, the Superintendent of
Education in Alabama, is said to he I'M
earthing Radical frauds in regard 10
schools and the school fund by the score.
But decidedly the most impudent piece of
Radical management of the school fund
is told by an Iowa paper. In a thinly
settled township in Guthrie county, in
that State, a leading Radical politician
concluded he must have q school for his
children. He applied to the Board of
Sub-Directors of the township to have a
new district set off, which would place
him about the centre, and alone in it. lie
next elects himself sub-director for
his district, and again applies for an ap-
preparation to build a school house for
his district, which is, of course, granted,
amounting to from $500 TO 200. This
money he uses to build himself a two
story house, furnishing the upper story
for a schoOlroom. He then uses the con
tingent fund to buy himself cook-stove
to heat the schoOlrOom. He places the
stove in the lower room, which he occu-
pies for his dwelling, and passes the pipe
I'D through the schoolroOm, where he
employs his wife as teacher for probably
thirty or forty dollars per month, and as
there are no children besides his own in
the district, his wife has an easy time.
Thus the school fund furnishes him 9
home, fuel, employment for his wife,
ETC., and the nonresident landowners
pay for it. .r..

The Lebanon Herald Of the 18th inst.
makes the following statement:
''One day last week, as Mr.. Jackson
was riding along, some five or six miles
from Gsinesboro,, in jackson county, he
was halted by two men in disguise and
told 10 dismount. As he got off his horse
the men fired on him. He returned the
fire, killing one OF them on the spot. The
other escaped, and Mr.. jackson does not
know whether he was wounded or not.
The man killed was notorious rascal in
that county, by the name of VIM. DAILY,
and he bad been accused of stealing from
different persons. He was in the Con-
federate army at the beginning of the
war, and deserted and Joined the Federal
army. After the killing, Mr.. jackson
rode to house and tod the inmates what
he had done, and requested them to take
care of the body. The citizens of Jack
son county approve of the course pursued
by MIR. jackson, and are rejoiced at the
radiance effected by his instrumentality. u
There is every reason to believe that
Days accomplice is of the same stripe as
himself. Here then we have the charac-
ter of at least some of the men who have
been creating disturbances in portions OF
Col. Stokes district. They are simply
outlaws, who have no affinity with OF
love for the Democratic party. Yet the
acts of these outlaws are seized upon by
the Radicals to support their claim that
the State should be reconstructed, or al
least that elections should be set aside in
certain congressional districts and Rsdi-
Gals declared elected. If these men had
any political sympathies, they were with
the Radical party. It is very clear from
the course of the Radicals that they are
greatly satisfied at every outrage these
outlaws may commit. Every thing OF
the kind is greedily gathered up by tho
Radicals and the particulars forwarded To
Washington as an evidence of the unfit.
ness of our people for self-government.
This fact shows the sympathy that exists
between the Radicals and these outlaws.
The latter are playing into the hands OF
the former, who are trying to make good
use of what they do.

JOSIAH QUINCY has introduced an sct
into the Legislature of Massachusetts,
requiring the managers of railroads termi
mating in Boston, to provide cheap train;
for the benefit of the working classes, il
accordance with the system of the railroad
corporations in England, where it is SAID
that the railways terminal ing in London,
run trains for distance Of ten miles, fol
a fare not exceeding shilling week,
sending passengers by special train in
the morning, but perni ting them to re.
turn by any train in the afternoon. The
plan is said to have succ eeded admirably
there, the rail ways being more than re.
paid for any extra expense by the fami-
lies of the workingmen, who pay the
regular fares.

IT appears from the documents sent to
the Senate on the 10th inst, by the Presi-
dent, that on the 29th of January, 1870,
Minister Bsssett, in Hayti, addressed a
letter to the commander of any United
States ship-of-wsr at or near SANTANA, in
which he said that under instructions
from the Government at Washington, he
had warned the existing Government CT
Hayti not to interfere in any manner in
the internal affairs of the republic of Do
minics. The Haytian Government re
piled on the 18th of February, through
its Foreign Secretary, that it was resolved
to abstain from all interference in the in
ternal affairs of the Dominican republic,
and in formal manner had instructed its
agents, at home and abroad, to act in
conformity with this resolution.

AUSTRIA is now looked upon as the
peace-maker of Europe. Her interests
are all bound up in the cessation of war.
If the map of Europe is recast, Austria
may be ground to powder between Prus-
STA and Russia. Besides Austria needs a
thorough reconstruction, both in civil
and military sense, and that point can
only be reached in time of peace. Fol
these reasons Francis Joseph has adopted
the role of peace-maker, and will use his
exertions in that line in all parts of
Europe.

harpeon had been found by its new own
er, and on the men comparing dates, it
was found that not thirty days had
interviewed from the loss of
the harpoon until the final capture of
the whale. OF course it was impossible
that the animal could have gone around
Cape Horn in thirty days, but many be-
lieved this to be the true solution of the
enigma, and cast doubts upon the state
ments of the harpooners. But these
sailors were examined under oath, the
officers of their respective vessels were
communicated with, and nothing could.
shake the correctness of their first
statements. The logs of hundreds of
vessels were compared, with view to
learn the habits of the right whale,
and to try and discover some other cir
cumstances which would strengthen
the now growing belief of Polar
Sea. Much important testimony was
elected by these examinations. 1t
was discovered that the Northern and
Southern right whales were distinct spe-
cies, the former never going further south.
than the S0th parallel, while the latter
never advanced above the 10th parallel of
south latitude, the heated seas of the
tropics being apparently sea of fire,
through which neither cared to pass. So
the Cape Horn theory fell to the ground.
In confederation of the Polar Sea theory
were the facts that the breeding grounds
of the right whale of the North had new
er been discovered; that these animals
visited the Arctic regions periodically for
that purpose, and that an open sea, with
temperature moderate enough to admit of
the growth of the proper food for the sus-
tenauce of the young whales, must exist
in that region. Then, from the fact that
currents of cold water reached the equa-
tor with an increase of only seven de-
| SACCo Al OOLpOioluiS, INC uoOuCllOu WAS
made that currents of warm water from
the equator might refresh the North Pole
with corresponding decrease of temper
AZURE, which would make it about 70 de-
| grees, or AZ degrees warmer than the
mean temperature of the waters of the
known Arctic regions. The probable
effect of body of water of such tenn
perature near the pole was, of course,
manifest to all. The wat ers of such q
sea would be teeming with life, while its
shores would be covered with verdure,
even though it was shut off from the rest
of the world by an apparently impene-
trable barrier of ice. Numerous attempts
have been made TO discover this Polar
sea. The lsmented DR.. Kane found an
open body of water, but whether it was
the true Polar sea or some smaller body
of water lying adjacent to it, is question
for future expeditions to discover. 1t is
sincerely hoped that something definite on
this point will be learned by the expedi-
ton soon to sail under charge of Capt.
Hall.
