THE ARCTIC SEAS.
The Story of the Austrian Polar
Expedition,

NEW YORK, Oct 1.-THE Tribune publishes
tomorrow letter from Hamburg giving an
account of the reception and banquet to the
Austrian Arctic explorers at Hamburg. Capt
Weyprecht in his speech told the story of the
voyage. He said in the autumn of 1872 they
were firmly enclosed and frozen. At one time
they had 30 feet of ice under the keel, and
were in region of intense cold. They drifted
slow, though not with regularity, and they
were perfectly helpless. No power of steam or
sails or men could do anything against the ice
of the north, and they were quite at its mercy.
The summer brought them no release.
They made excursions with sledges and dis
covered land hitherto unknown, which they
christened Franz JOseph's land in honor of
their Emperor When Lient. Payer returned
to the ship from his last expedition it was
necessary to consider he question of abandon
ing the Tegethoff. The ship was firmly blocked
in the ice, and was lurching so much it became
necessary to shove her up with spars. There
was no prospect of an escape and no prospect
that by remaining longer they could accomplish
much more.
Besides the loss of the ship was quite prob
able in the crushing and heaving of the ice, or
it this should happen in the winter, the de-
struction of the entire party was inevitable.
So it was decided to return to Europe.
On the goth of last May they left the ship
with boats drawn on sledges The way was
terrible They had to break down the hum
mocks with axes and picks so as to make road
for the sledges, and then were frequently days
where they did not make nautical mile in
twenty-fonr hours. Sometimes they could not
stand, and were forced to crawl OYER the rough
way. As they approached broken water they
found there ice which would not support them
standing, and where they were again forced to
crawl several days.
After leaving the ship a part Of them re-
everything was safe in the vessel and Captain
Neyprecht thinks it not impossible she may yet
be recovered. Through the broken water they
made their way with many hardships and at
length reached open water.
Once on the sea they made the best of their
way southwark, rowing by day at the rate of
about 40 miles per day. They were picked up
by Russian fishing smack and treated with
every kindness. The Russians brought them
to Norway, thence they made their way hither.

| more would be done. He thought there was i'll
feeling toward the society in that place.
| Mr.. Shipper moved the recommittal of the
report.
Mr.. Emery declined to serve on the commit
| tee, but was not excused.
Mr.. Shppin's original resolution given above
| was then substituted for the report of the COM
| mittee.
The President recalled the conference to the
| business aspect of the case. He thought not to
promise more than we can pay.
| Dr. Sheldon stated that Watervlle did not
ask for anything.
Mr.. Nichols said, we only recommend the
appropriations. If the churches do not choose
to give the money they need not, but they will
be poorer for it.
Rev. Mr.. McLoud thought if any of the rich
men would give but mite of their abundance
the whole amount would be raised. He very
funnily referred to his host, wealthy citizen
of Portland.
The resolution was then adopted.
The Rev. Mr.. Wnkley of Castine, then pre-
sented an essay upon Practical Religion. Love
to God and love to man comprise the law ana
the prophets. One half of religion, then, is
duty to man and the other duty to God. The
former in Morality, the latter in Religion. 1t
has been said that the one has nothing to do
with the other. Practical religion is the union
of the two. Christ teaches heaven within,
but NO less the kingdom of heaven without.
Peace on earth, good will among men. To re-
ceive this is the province of practical religion.
The church has been so busy in saving souls for
the world to come that no time has been found
for saving them for this world. The specula-
tions in regard to Gods purposes and thoughts
which theologians indulge are valueless. The
practical study of religion is to be found in
man, whom we have with us. Why do we not
understand the laws of morality as we'll as
those of natural SCHEME? We have not inves-
tigated them.
The conference then adjourned to this morn
ing at 9 o'clock.
In the evening the Rev. Rush r. Shipper
preached a most able, eloquent and stirring dis
course from the text, "Heaven and earth shall
pass away, but my words shall not pass away"

AN HONEST BoY.-A bootblack named John
Holbrook, who stops around the Boston &
Maine depot, found pocket book yesterday
near the depot with $37 in it. He at once went
to Mr.. Stevens, the agent of the road, and gave
him the money, asking him to. find the owner.
Mr.. Stevens found that it belonged to labor
ing man, who, but for the boy, would have lost
it. The owner was most grateful to the boy,
and rewarded him handsomely. This boy
should be patronized.
