afternoon but tho ncws Of tho wonder
ful experiences and recovery of tho
abandoned party had been partially tel
egraphcd several days before. Thci1
arrival was impalicntly expected, and
no sooner had the ship dropped anchor
in the harbor than crowds, putting of
in boats, bcsegcd the decks and oyer,
whelmcd the strangers with intenso en-,
rioeity and torrents Of questioning Us
to the origin Of their strange condition
and the unparalleled capabilities which
had safely brought them triumphantly
through SO many and ntupcndOus perls.
Captain Tyson aud Mr. Myers refused
to land till night, on account Of the dI-
lapidatcd state Of their clothing. The
Esquimaux men, women and children,
and most of the whites, landed carly IN

Of the harbor, according rs tn" course

snhlo, Tu8tln8ly lenneo otl "p urn u
