Two parties were up on counter charges,

remOdeling. One is said to have attempt

doubtless be harmOnized satisfactorily to
both parties tomorrow morning.

of the wreck, and nothing was ascertained
as to how the winter was passed, the where
abouts OF the missing men, or how they
spent their time while waiting for the ice
to break out. The entire time of the
Tigress in the neighborhood of Litteton
island was only five hours. The Esqui-
maux were not sufficiently interrogated.
When first seen from the deck Of the
Tigress, these people were in the uniform

clothes and rcdonned their Esqnimaux
apparel,
AN ACT THAT LOOKS SUSPICIOUS.
The Esquimaux. moreover, had but lit
tie provisions; their food being nearly all
consumed; neither had they any boats.
Under these circumstances, through the
medium Of Dusky Joe, they asked to be
taken on board the Tigress but Com
mander Greer declined to allow them TO
do so. After this boat had returned to
the Tigress three cheers were given for
homeward. The assistant ice pilot reported
an ice blink fifteen miles off, and the
vessel was hastily headed south at fifteen
minutes past two O'Clock in the morn
ing, after an imperfect search, and
leaving the unfortunate Esquimaux behind
to battle with fate. Instead of crossing to
the westward of Cape York and following
the probable track of Buddington's party
towards Ponds Bay, the Tigress returned
to Uppernavik on the 10Th Of August, and
arrived at God Haven, Disco, on the 25th.
Although the Tigress has again gone in
search, the prospects of finding them are
however, unless, as they
hoped, they have been picked mp by whal-
ing ships.

MISSING STEAMER.
The steamship Ernest NORTH Arnah Is fifteen
Gays overdue at this point f7om Stellin via
Havre. She has on board about 400 passengers
cabin and steerage and about 80 tons of freight.
The owners say she is a new vessel, this being
her third voyage. She is not overload ed; as
plenty of provisions and is a fine sea boat
They believe that some of her machinery as
given away and she is under sail. The captain
of the Rhein, at this port, Aug. 4, from Bremen,
reported seeing the Arnah on the LIST inst, under
sail, but did not see her flag, but the smokes
stack. AS the smokestack is the same as those
on the national line, the captain of the Rhein
may have been mistaken.
