TIE LOST POLARIS.

She was about 400 tons measure
ment, larger than the Advance, in
which DR.. Kane undertook his former
voyage. She was planked all over
her sides with six inches of solid
white oak timbers,. and was through
out nearly doubled in strength, her
bows being almost solid mass of
timber, sheathed with iron and ter
minating in sharp iron prov, with
which to cut through the ice. Her
engine was exceedingly compact and
powerful, and took up comparatively
little space. The propeller was arrang-
ed in such a manner that it could be
unshipped and lifted up on deck
through shaft or propeller well in
the stern. A supply of extra blades
were provided, so that if one should
by accident getbrokenit it could always
be replaced. There was also an ex-
ira rudder on board and several suits
of sails and sets of spars of all dimen-
tions. OF the two boilers one was
supplied with an apparatus to use
whale oil for the generation of steam,
not only to furnish the propelling
power, but also to heat up the vessel
throughout with steam. The Polaris
was rugged as foretopsail schooner,
and fully able to sail and steer under
canvas only. She also had new
life-preserving buoy, placed on the
outside in the stern, that could be
lowered into the water by touching a
spring placed near the pilot house.
By touching another spring an cleo
tric light affixed to the buoy, about
two feet above the water, could be
ignited by completing the circuit of
an electric current from a galvanic
battery on board; and thus the buoy
could always be distinctly seen, and a
man falling overheard would know

Virginia Conservative Platform.

We, the representatives of the Conserva-
tives assembled, do declare:
l. That contrast of the condition Of Vir>
ginia under Conservative government with the
condition of those southern States which have
been under Radical rule illustrates the wisdom
of the people of Virginia in the adoption of
this plan of State policy, and demonstrates
the necessity of continuing the powers of the
State government in the control of the con-
sentative people of this common wealth.
g That the chief purpose of the Conserva-
tive party of Virginia is to secure to every
citizen of the commonwealth, whether native
or adopted, of the white or of the coorcd
race, exact and impartial justice, and to pro-
mote by wise and beneicent legislation the
prosperity of our whole people.
8. That the Conservative party of Virginia,
disclaiming all purpose of captous hostility
to General Grant. will judge him impartially
by his official action, and will cordially CO.
operate in every measure of his administration
which may be benificent in its design aud cal>
culated to promote the welfare of tho peonle
and to cultivat, sentiments of good will be-
tween the different sections of the Union.
!. We rec0gni fundamental political
truth that upon the intelligence and virtue of
Its people must rest the prosperity, power, and
permanence of State. We point with pride
to the successful establishment and progress of
the free school system of Wiz .inia, inaugu-
rated and conducted under circumstances of
peculiar difficulty, for which we are indebted
to the wisdom and zeal of Conservative State
Government. Liberal provision ought to be
continued for the support and extension of
the free schools for the white and colored
races respectively.
>. That the interests of large section this
OF Union no less than those of Virginia demand
the speedy enlargement and completion of the
great James River and Kanawha water.line,
that should connect the waters of the Ohio
with those of the Chesapeake, affording 20 the
teemipg population of the West cheap trans
port'tion of their products to the points of
shipment and marts of trade in the East
The completion by the Government of this
great des of George Washington would DO
an additional bond of union between the COM
munltles whose products and commodities
would pass over the line of the great national
work.
KICKED BY CoLr.-Mr. Henry Camp
bell, residing near this place. went into his
stable one day last week to saddle colt. and
IN doing so, was very severely kicked in the
side by the animal He fell senseless in the
stable. but some of the family seeing the colt
run out, went to it and found him in the above
condition. In carrying him to the house he
received fall cutting his face. At last ac.
counts, although suffering good deal of main.
he was slowly recovering.
