The POfaris.

What wonderful story is that Of the
ship Polaris How like romance-a tale of
Thule--it reads. We have sat night after
night at the theatre, smiling incredulously
at the improbabilities if not impossible
ties, of that dramatic picture, the +" Sea
Of lee, and yet We have now real life
occurrence, whose truthfulness is fully
vouehed for and borne out by circumstan-
ces that cannot lie, eclipSes all the fictitious
terrors and splendorS Of that fanciful
creation. In after years, it has been well
said, these variations of adventure amid
the icy castles of the North will be classed
with the fctiOns of this strange age
even, perhaps, as many of our great In
ventions then lost to man through re-
turn of darkness, such as shut the middle
ages from the light, will be decided as
mere chimeras. and inventions of the brain
only, az such will be viewed these ''sto-
ries told by travellers. But to Us the
narrative of the Poaris survivors, like
the stories of Sir Francis Drake, of Capt
Cook, of Sir John Franklin, of Kane, is
solemn fact which is robbed Of half It's
marvclousness by its truth. We're it a
fiction We should pronounce it incredible,
but being a fact, we cease to wonder at 1t.
Look at the situation of the party rescued
from their floating drifting island of ice.
For more than six months they were
tossed about on the foe TO whose cold
mercies they had been abandoned. lee
bercs hung over them huge masses OF
the foe broke loose and driftcd away.
Fire was scarce, provisions grew scantier
day by day, and in huts Of ice they
starved and froze the winter through.
For more than two months they were en-.
yeloped by black unbroken night. In all
that time there was not ray of light to
shine in upon their dcns of ice In Feb
r1iary the day came with one brief hour OF
sunshine, growing longer and longer UNI
til their rescue in April They survived
by miracle-saved, perhaps, to tell a
tale of treachcry and of murder. The fate
| may have spared them as the instruments
of just vengeance thess sea refused to
hide the evidences of mans inhumanlty
and crime and the accuser will yet meet
the accused face to face, and unfold this
mystery of the deep. In the meanwhile,
waiting the sequel of this strange story,
all must confess that in the wide fields of
fiction there has been nothing so dramatic
! or romantic as this cruise of the POlarlS.-

STARTLING INTELLIGENCE.
Captain Jack OF the MOdOcs the
son of. a5Kentucl>y Emigrant.

son of. aiKentucl>y Emigrant.
1t is at this time currently re
ported in this community, and by
many believed, that Capt. Jack,
the celebrated Modoc Chief is the
son Of Capt. Jack Chambers, a ma
tive and formerly a well-known
citizen of the western part of this
county In support of this beliete
the following facts are given
About the year 1915 Ga party of
emigrants, made up of citizens of
Franklin county and other parts of
Kentucky, went to California on a
tortune-seeking expedition. With
this party went Capt. Jack Clam
bers, bold, daring man, who
though a full-blooded white man,
possessed many of the characters
ties, physical as well as mental and
moral, of an Indian brave. On
reaching California, the party
gradually broke up and scattered,
but it was well known, and so re-
ported by all those who subsequent
tly returned to Kentucky. that
Captain Jack Chambers fell in with
the Moloc Indians, married the
daughter of their head chief, at
whose death he Capt. Chambers)
succeeded TO be the chieftaifslip by
election, and so continued to the
day of his death, only a few years
ago. 1t is also said that, after liv-
ing with the ModOcs some years
he became much like the rest Of tn
warriors of that tribe, both in
speech and general physique, that
the closest observer never suspect
ed that he was other than full
blOoded Indian. Besides, the Cap
tain himself favored the delusion;
and hence it is that we see it stated
in al the sketches of captain
Jack" the present Modoc chief,
that he is the son ef a full-blooded
chief of that tribe. In fact this was
the general belief of all tie Indian
traders and agents who ever came
in contact with the tlibc. At the
time of his joining the M2docs.-
Captain Jack Chambers was be
tween thirty-five and forty years
of age. Previous to his emigration
to California, however, he had
volunteered in the war for the indie
pendence of Texas, where he dis
tinguiShed himself as brave sol
der and capital officer 1t is an in
teresting and remarkable fact in
| his personal history that he was one
of a family af twenty-four children
| twcnty-one sons and three daugh~
tiers all ofwhome grew to maturity
most of whome are still living, ard
nearly all of whom were remarka-
BILE for physical qualities closely re-
sembling those of the higher types
of the American Indians.-FRNK-

a CARD
nR III. q. A. BOYER, having per
~ manentiv located himself in Bristol,
Tenn, offers bis professional services to the
public for the treatment of all diseases pc
culiar to Women and Children. Having
made this branch of his profession speci-
atty for nearly twelve years, and the general
success attending it, has induced him to con-
fdently assure all who may place themselves
under his care, the most approved methods
of treatment now known to the profession.
lie intends no disparagement in saying that
no physician can arrive at distinction in the
management of those diseases unless his
whole time and attention is given to their
investigation and study. Many of them be-
ing peculiar in their nature, delicate to in
vestigate. and consequently difficult to under
stand, makes it quite essential that the en-
tire thoughts of the practitioner should be
engrossed with the subject. Ladies living
at distance who are afflicted with CHRONIC
AFFECTIONS will be received into his house,
and placed in the care of his wife, who will
see to their general comfort, through good
nurses, regulated diet, &c., at cheaper rate
than they could be visited far in the country.
Should any however have friends in town
and prefer being with them, the same medi-
cal attention will be given them as if they
were in his own house. Married ladies can
confde in the good treatment of the Doctor
in all cases, and under all circumstances.

The Farmers Convention.
This body intended to embrace S.
W. Va, assembled at Marion, on
Thursday last, j. IIoge Tyler presi-
ding. The counties of Montgomery,
Pulaski, Bland, Myth, Smyth, and
Washington were represented. by a
lair number Of delegates. Gen. Wm.
ii. +. Lee, President Of the State
Agricultural Society, being present,
was invited to a seat upon the stand
and delivered an address character
lied by plain practical views. Quite
curiosity was manifested to see a
a son of the great confederate leader.
but the disappointment at the absence
of even the least resemblance be-
tween the father and son, was quite
manifest.
Prof J. W. c. Davis, Of the chair
of Agriculture and Mechanics in the
Agricultural and Mechanical College
at BIacksburg, was Iikewise invited to
the staisd and made very pleasant
and somewhat learned address.
Meantime the committee on Gre

man, Mi. j. c. Campbell, in favor
of all delegates and also such other
persons of whatever trade or occupa-
tion as might be present.

were appointed committee on bus

propositions were sent, the CHIEF
and principally important of which
were Submitted by Gov. McMullin.
They asked the Legislature to enquire
into the cxpedicncy of limiting the
House Of delegates to IS members
and the Senate to 25-of limiting the
pay of members to 500 each and
providing for financial sessions only,
and making Attorneys for the Com
monwealth and Sherifls Ineligible
TO either house fer six months sue
ceeding their terms Of office. The
committee reported upon these meas
urcs that while they met with the ap,
probation of individual members oil
the committee. yet in view of theil
political character they recommended
that they do not pass.
This brought Gov. McMuIlin to hi,
feet in one of the best but most nm
successful speeches we have heard
from him. Mr.. Stuart defended very
forcibly the report Of the committed
which was sustained by a unaEimou.
votc-excepted the vote of Coy
McMullin.
The COMMITTEE also reported

4 singular marriage WAS recently made

earnest affection, that she rclented and
wrote him note informing him that she
had reconSidered Ths young man all
aslow with happiness, FASTENED 10 her
side and insisted ON immediate marriage.
But here an unlookcd-ior obstacle inter.

out, aud the hard hearted directors relus.
ed to cancel her engagement except at
at the expense at forfeiture uf the half
term. Finally The lady consented to
compromise She bounced inlo the young
