part of the crew remain on board when
the vessel drifted away into the fog
and darkness, and that there is Il myS-
terry in relation to the sudden death of
the heroic commander. 1t is possible
that the Polaris has made her way to
some Arctic port without serious disas-
ter, and in that case the reports of the
scientific observers in regard to the ge-
ography and tho fauna and flora Of the
high latitudes will yet add something
to our knowledge of the phenomena
Of Nature; but the perils OF North
ern voyaging are so numerous and
so great that it is more than probable
that the fate Of the polaris will be that
of the lIrebus and tho Terror. 1t is
we'll known that Captain Hall was
firm believer in the theory of the cNis-
tcnce Of an open Polar Sea, determined
to push further toward the Polo than
any navigator who had preceded him.
In this effort hc actually succeeded, for
the POlariS made her Way to tho lati-
tue of 50 deg, 1G nlin.--a feat never
before accomplished by Il ship. DIR.
Nanc'S men, who reached about tho
same latitude, made the journey in
part by boats, and the remainder over
land on foot, and claimed to have dis
covered the open sea; but Halls party
contend that the sea is but stratc
some fourteen miles wide, with the
appearance OF open water to the North
ward. Kane and Hall pass into history
together, as enthusiastic and advcntu-
rouS explorers who have penetrated
further, and who havcsccn more, than
any other naVigators of the Arctic Seas
but one died OF disease contracted i'll
the quest, and the other lies buried on
the field of his triumph. The world is
not greatly the gamer by all that these
bravo men suffered.

OVATION TO COL. DcELANC.

The enthusiastic reception of this
gallant gentleman by our citizens yes
tcrday was the simple and honest cX-
preston of the prevailing, sentiment of
the honest of our people of their uncN-
tirg,iishable hostility to and rejection
ofthe X ellogg fraud. Itmcant, further,
their full approval of the submission to
the Federal power, which is tho fixed
rule and determination of our citizens.
Nothing is more rCpugnant to the
desires and interest Of this people than
to be driven to any armed and physical
violence against even the usurpation
which socks TO degrade and make slaves
OF u. We have had enough of war and
violence. Peace, order and honest
government are now our chief thought, =,
desire and prayer. l}ut acquiCsccncc
in such gross fraud and infamous uSIr-
pation would intlict upon our race an
eternal stigma, that would bring the
blush of shame to the checks Of unborn
generations. For no considerations of
material interest, Quictudc or pUSpcrity,
can frcenlcn consent to have themselves
written down in history as the willing
scryitors of so bold and sheer y fraud
and despotism.
Hence the protest and opposition to
I\cllogg's invasion, which only takes
the form ofpliysical and armed violence
when driven thereto by the Use Of like
Observation-Disclosures by the invader. 1t is
precisely this principle and right Of re-
sistancc which were Represented by
COL DrlSlanc in the attitude lately
assumed b.S him i'll st. Martin. Hence
the honor5 paid to him by the people.
Hence the great respect in which his
nam" and character will always be
held by every true i."ui7ianian.-.N.

JOURNALISTIC FOES.
IN. Y. Cor. Chicago Times.


The late James Gordcn Bennett, OF
the Herald, very seldom went amy
where, his life being divided between
his office and his home. Tho only
public occasion on which l remember
to have seen him was ut tho dinner
given by Sir Morton pcto, at Dctmon-
iCO'S, after the close of the rebellion.
Bennett then seemed out of place, and
was personolly Il stranger to the COM
pany, many of whom did not even
know his face. Beside him, Horace
Greeley, Henry j. Raymond, Manton
Marble, Thurlow Weed, James Brooks,
William Cullen Bryant, Theodore Til
ton, David NJ. Stone, Park Goodwin,
Sydney Howard Gay, George William
Curtis, and other noted journalists
were present.
Not Il few of these were unurul,aint-
cd, and still more were unwilling to
Spcakc to each other. Greeley, Bennett
and Bryant passed and ropaSScl each
other without u mood Of recognition.
Weed and Greeley ignored one anoth-
cr's existence; so did lIaSmouu and
Marble, Stone and brooks, I'ilton and
Goodwin. Gay and Curtis Wcrr, and
are still, personal friends, and the lat
ter seemed to be almost the only gentle
liltil Hol'itlS Hitil''tbit fcittiblS VIII!
his brethren. | did not sec any OF the
fraternity speak to Bennett during the
whole evening, and he held himself
alOof, a. if afraid he might b" spoken to.
The terms on which ihc principal
ScribcS were at the time have not mate
rally changed since, though Greeley,
Bennett and ltaymonh have quilted
this planet for one, let us hope, in
which there is moro professional cour-
tcsy and esprit lc corps.

Senator Carpcntcr, in his report on
the Louisiana question, shows that the
decision of the State Supreme Court
was as violent and lawlcss as the in
tcrlocutOry orders OF Judge Durcll, for
the following reasons:
!. TheSuprcmc Court, in the case re-
! fcrrcd to, is understood not to have had
any testimony before it showing the
character Of the proceedings by the
Lynch board, which testimony is before
your committee very fully. Fraud
vitiatcS everything, and it is certain
that no court, upon the testimony
before you committee could hold tho
canvass by that board to l." valid.
>. In the opinion Of your committee
the Suprnmc Court had no jurisdiction
OF the case in which they made tn"
decision. The Judgments of every
court, tn" most exalted in character,
arc absolutely void, If rendered with
out jurisdiction.
This shows t.at The Administration
has no legal ground to stand on in its
treatment of the Louisiana question
that its action from beginning to end
was illegal and unwarrantablc, and
that it is therefore responsible for the
anarchy and civil war which now cX-
lists in that unhappy Stately. ID"js

The Old Surprise.

Now what hath entered my loved woods
And touched their green with sudden changer
What IS this last of Natures moods
That makes the roadside look so strange?
who blanched my tIistle's blushing face,
And gave the winds her silver hair?
Set golden rod wit in her place,
And scattered asters everywhere,
VINO splashed with red the sumach hedge
The Sassafras with purple stain;
Gave ivy leaves a ruby edge
And painted al their stems again?
Lo! the change reaches high and wide,
Hath toned the sky to softer blue:
Hath crept along the rive sile
And trod the valleys thorugh and through:
DiScolored every hazel copse,
And stricken all the pasture lands;
Flung veiis across the mountain tops,
And bound their feet with yellow bands
Is, then september come 50 soon
Full time doth summer ne'er abide?
While yet it seems but summers noon,
We're floating down the autumn tide
--ttiantic Monthly.
