POLAR EXPEDITIONS.

Polar expeditions are in order again.
Austria comes to the front, and determines
to send out two expeditions into the land
of perpetual snow. Her first expedition
to the Attic regions was no great success,
yet the people of Vienna gave tie party n
magnificent ovation on their return, and
this encouraged the government to other
trials. Although IL is some times urged
against these expeditions that they accom-
plish no practical good, yet they build up a
healthy International spirit of rivalry, and
that is something gained.
The new Austrian expeditions as at pre-
sent arranged, one party will 60 by way of
Greenland, the other Ivy Siberia. A con-
troversy Is probable to arise IN reference to
the new so-caled "Francis Joseph land.
Austria claims this as discovery, but
Captain Hayes pointedly disputes the
claim. He declares that he traversed the
continent with one companion in 1854 and
with three companions IN 1861. The
Aus,risns only reached elghty-two degrees
northwari, but DR.. Kane and other navi-
gators went further, and one of our cX-
plDrers las penetrated within less Than
seven degrees from the north pole. We
are glad this controversy has arisen, as it
will be promotivc OF emulation in the
direction of penetrating the polar regions,

comparatively unNnown region of the

sultatiOn Mrs. Joel Foster of Montpelier was
unanimously elected delegate to the Nation
al temperance convention at Cleveland in

and were accepted. Several interesting
letters were read from the 2lst and Sd con-

zeal, and an earnest desire that our state

ton. Encouraging reports were given of
the temperance interest in Barre. A lady
from Montpelier gave an account of the
working of their association during the last
two years, showing most wonderful adj
vancement in public sentiment, and an in.
crease in active workers. 1t was also re-
ported from Montpelier that Mr.. Clarl
proprietor of the American house, had
opened il as temperance house, and has
since kept 1t as such, and with success.
Each Sunday evening for more than two
years, union temperance meetings have
been held with but single exception. A
lady from Plaintield reported advancement
and earnestness, and suggested state or
ganization for temperance works, which
most cordially met with the approval of
the ladies present. The meeting was con-
tinued with deep interest beyond the usual
time in listening to the many reports and
the reading of letters from associations I'M
able to be represented at this time. closing
with united thanks to our Father in
heaven for encouragement received during
the past, and earnestly asking His aid in
future.

THE POSTAL CONGRESS-.

The International Postal Congress which
has been in session at Berne, Switzerland.
has paid fine tribute to the administration
OF American postal affairs in the adoption
of treaty substantially upon the American
basis to which is aided the fact that all
the European governments, except France.
have Instructed their delegates TO sign the
postal convection, upon the condition that
it receives the support and ratification of
the United States. This indicates tie
powerful influence OF the United States.
and is graceful tribute to the excellence
of the views on postal matters entertained
by our government and carried out by our
postmaster generals. 1t is also fair ac
acknowledgement of the efforts made by the
administrators OF our postal affairs during
the last few years to introduce through
out the world better management. France
in not signing the convention, has reserved
the right to hereafter examine the condi-
lions before signing, but there can lie but
little doubt that she will readily agree to
any arrangements proposed by the United
States.
This is but another instance of the pre-
dominating influence which the United
States is exerting upon foreign nations in
all matters where an International agree
ment is to be made and the Difference paid
to our experience and the views entertained
by our officials upon questions INVOLVING
progress and comfy between the nations.
