The Polaris Expedition.

Secretary Robson, in reporting the results Of
the investigation upon the Polaris matter very
properly gives the testimony of the rescued par
ties, even where il seems to bear hard upon
those who are now absent on the Polaris and
who have no chance of defending themselves.
The secretary Is right in holding that il is better
this should be Published as given rather than
that its suppression should be made the founda-
ton ofsensatiOnal and alarming reports. There
seems no good reason to suppose that the party
on the ice-hOe were wantonly deserted by Can't
BuddingtOn, and though the evidence we re-
Rret TO say, does not satisfactorily clear up
the suspicion that Capt. Hall was foully dealt
with, there Is nothing TO implicate Buddington
lie seems 10 be a bluff. outspoSen, impulsrve
man, whose worst fault is an appetite for drink.
Ii Capt. Han was poisoned, 1t was by a cooler
hand than Bgddington's- Ii must have been
done by some one having a knowledge Of chem
istry, ard OF the action Of different poisons
upon the human stomach, and of the strength
OF the doses to be given with proper intermis-
siOns, so that the death should not be suspi-
ciously sudden. Capt. Hall told the Esqui-
rlaux, Joe, that his coffee had been poisoned
that he felt burning sensation at the
stomach after drinking it. This Is the we'll
Known sensation from the action OF poison on
the stomach As Capt Hall at stages of his
sickness seemed tn be laboring under halluci-
ations of mind, IL would not be right to attach
too much Importance to what he said in this
respect Should the missing crew of the Po-
laris be found, perhaps the matter may be
cleared up At present the mystery is rather
intensified than solved by the discrepant testi-
mOny of the party on the ice-fiOe.

LETTER FROM COLONEL MoRRELL.
Lieut.. Colonel Morrell, of the Third,
who is still at Cape May with his family
writes as follows
"We are still here, enjoying the eat
ing, drinking, bathing and sleeping of
this model of seaside resorts. l wish
you were with me to listen and bear
witness to the praises and encomiums
which are showered upon the gallant
Third. Westinghouse, Baltimoreans,
Philadelphians, in fact ALL acknowledge
the proficiency in drill and general good
conduct, individually and collectively,
of the officers and men of the crack
regiment of the state of New Jersey.
The dress parade upon the lawn was
THE feature of the encampment, and it
is conceded by all who witnessed it that
nothing could excel the PERFECTION OF
every movement Being compelled to
keep my head and eyes directly to the
front, and consequently being unable to
see any of the evolutions, I cannot
vouch for the justice of the compli-
ments passed upon Colonel Drake and
his command. but am egotistical enough
to believe that they are justly deserved.
We have yet some three hundred guests
at the Congress, who all seem to enjoy
themselves hugely. The weather since
you left has been splendid, the COM
pany sociable, and the bathing magnifi-
cent. I shall stay here until Friday
sure, and, probably, Monday, when we
shall again return to our homes, proud
of the Third and recuperated in health. !"

A CLEVER ARCHITECT.

Mr.. D. B. Provost, who occupies
fine rooms on the second floor of
Marsh's new building, is busy in pre-
pairing plans for fine residences and
public edifices. He has just completed
plans for the new edifice for the First
Baptist church of Roselle, and the
building when completed will adorn the
village. Its dimensions are forty-fve
feet by ninety feet.
Mr.. Provost is also completing
plans for Councilman Smiths block of
handsome brick dwellings,, to be erected
on Morris avenue, near the bridge. The
fronts will be elegant in design, and
finished in handsome manner, and the
block will do much to ornament the
locality.
Mr.. Jonathan r. Squire is about to
build an elegant residence on West
Grand street, near Cherry street, and
Mr.. Provost furnished the design and
specifications.
Those who contemplate building, will
do we'll to consult with Mr.. Provost.

1t has been supposed that the Waiting
room of a railway station could be capa-
BILE of nothing more exhilarating and
entertaining than the awful beefsteak
and the indescribable pie. But, at last,
Chicago has proved that something
pleasanter is attainable. In one of the
railway depots there, free reading
room has been established, to the de-
location of travellers. The room is
large, and very neat and pleasant, and
is ornamented by choice plants con
tributed by the city florists, and by pic
lures. 1t has plenty of magazines and
papers, and is supported by voluntary
contributions. In less than one month
seven hundred and nine travellers found
rest and mental refreshment there. We
heartily commend the plan to other
cities and towns where people are
obliged to- wait for trains

THAT intolerable nuisance, the goat,
which makes life miserable in the lower
wards, is boldly marching along our av-
enues in groups of ten, or less, and I'M
less our uptown citizens are wideawake
and at once send them to the public
pound, they will prove great pest. In
an evil hour the citizens of the First
and Second wards allowed family of
goats to land on their shore, and they
have greatly regretted the act of folly
ever since. Eternal vigilance is the
