Stover was destroyed by fire on Monday of
last week at about o'clock p. NJ. There was

The SIums OF New York.

A great city like New York includes the
extremes of humanity, its deepest degradation
and its highest attainment. When we read Of
the arrests Of such wretched creatures as those
who were placed in the Tombs yesterday, no.
toriously guilty of the worst offences, and then
turn to the words OF culture and thought adj
dressed from our pupits to respectable audit
ors, we catch, OF least, glimpse OF the gulf
that divides society in great city. Churches
have but an indirect reformatory influence
upon such degraded beings as those our report
elsewhere describes. All sermons are above
the plane of their existence, and the most i'm
passioned appeals, the strongest arguments,
pass uselessly over their heads. It is
hard to reach this stratum of evil,
and only now and then the arm of
the law reaches down into the abyss of the
slums and grasps the offender TO lift them
merely to the level Of the prison. Tortu-

nately for the welfare Of society their very
degradation makes them obscure but un-
fortunately for themselves that obscurity
places them almost beyond rescue. Society
knows even less of them than it does OF the
inhabitants of Central Africa or the Pata-
gonians. The splendor of civilization sur
rounds them, yet they dwell in darkness OF
their own creation. To help them appears
almost impossible; to limit their sphere OF
evil is all that the law undertakes. 1t is
pity that this should be SO; but it is true that
there is an extreme of degradation which
battles both the law and the Church, and
while it defes the penalties of the one is
beneath even the charity of the other

LOUISIANA AND ARKANSAS. The President
and his Attorney General, it appears, are ap-
prehensve of serious troubles again in Louis
lima with the meeting Of the Legislature, and
particularly from the threats and omnous
proclamations and movements of the White
Leaguers. In Arkansas, too. although the
trouble with Mr. Smith appears to be ended,
the condition OF things is still far from being
satisfactory, looking to the establishment Of
law and order. Accordingly, it is said the
President in his Message, Will urge the
Louisiana and Arkansas complications upon
the immediate attention OF Congress, and
such action thereon as, in the judgment OF
the two Houses the public interests re-
quire. In the meantime General Grant will
adhere, SO far as possible, to the policy of
non-intervention in these local difficulties of
Louisiana or Arkansas. We ore gratiAed
with these assurances from Washington. ond

ers Of ereenbacks TO fund them in five per
cent gold bonds Five per cent bonds of the
United States are at par, or about par in gold;
and the greenbacks would be speedily brought
to par if made exchangeable for such bonds.
The funding of the greenbacks would, of
course, reduce the volume of the currency;
but there is no danger that the process would
be SO rapid as to embarass the business
of the country. So long as money
could be loaned on good security at seven per
cent or six per cent interest it would not be
exchanged for bonds yielding only five per
cent, and the funding OF the greenbacks would
proceed but little way before the contraction
OF the currency would carry up the market
price of money, and check the funding by
capital than investing it in form which
yielded only five per cent interest. As the
privilege of converting the greenbacks into
bonds would be permanent there would be
no haste to secure transient advantage,
and so long as there was an active demand
for money for business uses the
greenbacks would be loaned to mer-
chants in preference to funding them.
But they would steadily and inevitably
tend to par with gold, and as soon as
there is no difference in value between gold
and greenbacks the most difficult part Of the
financial problem is solved. It is true that
the greenbacks funded in this way could not
be recovered to the circulation. But they
would be maintained at par, and occasional
deficiencies in the currency might always be
supplied by redeemable bank notes. which
would be returned to the banks when no
longer wanted in the channels OF business.
There is, perhaps, no way Of returning to
specie values SO simple, direct and effective
as permanent law authorizing the funding
of the greenbacks in FIVE per cent gold bonds.

The New English North Polar Ex-
pedttion.

petition.
After long delay the English government
has finally announced its purpose to send out
new North Polar expedition. The state
ment is put forth that it will equip two
steamers, one Of which will be commanded
by Commander Markham, Of the Royal Navy,
an officer Of some experience in Arctic naviga-
ton and Of great ambition and promise.
The announcement will kindle great en-
thusiasm in the ranks Of modern gsographeys
and be one Of Mr. Disraeli's popular measures
for the Advancement Of science by govern
ment aid. The distinctive feature In this new
Polar enterprise will be the strictly naval out
fitting and management, with the most rigid
discipline, which Is not attainable in private
expedition Of the required magnitude. The
route of exploration, ii we may judge by the
oft-spoken will OF the various societies and
individuals at whose earnest solicitation the
expedition was determined upon, will be the
American route by Smiths Sound, following
the track of the Polaris. Doubtless oil the
elements of success will be embodied in the
new project and nothing left undone to arm
This expedition will make the first full and
fair experiment of steam navigation in the
icy seas, If indeed, as we presume, the
steamers are suitably prepared tor their peril
Gus undertaking. In recent voyage in the
steam whaler Arctic Captain Markham had
opportunities OF testing the power of steam to
force way through formidable pack ice in
Davis Straits, in which sailing vessel
would have been perfectly helpless. Should
the new expedition be able to steam as high
north as Captain Hall did in the Polaris they
will be within about four hundred miles of the
can send out their Polar search parties, with
hopes Of passing beyond eighty-iour degrees
north. The physical indications in the high
ATTITUDES, in and north OF Smiths Strait, favor
very strongly the idea that the throbbings Of
the Polar Ocean loosen the ice belt, and that
flow OF water, which has perhaps come
through Behring Strait, makes its way south
ward through Kennedy Channel. The tidal
phenomena reported by HIS party Ito the
effect that the tides rose in the northern part
OF this channel and progressed southward) as
well as the driitwood picked up, render highly
probable the existence of loose ice, if not open
water, north OF Grinnell Land and even Pres
ident's Land, the extreme northerly point
sighted by Captain Hail. 1t seems physical
impossibility that o tidal wave, however small,
could be propagated southwark through the
crcumpolar sea, unless its ice was in broken
condition. And ii that sea is not solidly ice
bridged there is strong ground for hope that
two iull powered steamers. under skilful man-
