John Ross, in 1918, nearing the other end
of Smiths Sound (whore Baflin, pre-
ceding him, had found what he de-
scribed as a deep bay) discovered that this
Sound was bounded by range of elevations
which he named tho Dulcnea Mountains.
Unfortunately for these Quixotic attitudes,
they have never been seen by subsequent ex-
plorers, and in 1859 Ingleficld sailed over their
recorded site.
The present antarctic case is parallel, though
we must admit that the lines of the parallel
are tOlerably wide apart. To state it briefly,
Commodore Wilkes, in January, 1910. sighted
land near the antarctic circle, in about
longitude 1879 f., and sailed along it, or
what he supposed to be it, westward,
catching occasional sights Of it, to long. 1Ol' T..
There was enough of it in all conscience
without stretching it, as the fashion Is, on a
Mercators projection, it is az long az
Australia. But Commodore Wilkes's con-
ceptions were of Alexandrine length, and
he sighed for more world: he threw
out the generalization that the continent ex-
tended to Enderbys Land, which is some fifty
degrees further; and upon this rock, or per-
haps rather upon its absence, he split. The
Challenger has sailed down within this pro-
iected line of land and crossed the antarctic
circle.
But the point that is specially made by the
English navigators, is that at the very spot
where Wilkes last saw land. they saw none.
He very properly called it Termination Lana
perhaps it has already come to termlna-
ton. There was large iceberg In the
way, and the Englishmen could MT get any
nearer than within six miles of the spot
which was very provoking. Resting on their
oars then and there, they sOlemnly determined
the non-existence of Termination Land. 1t If
| great pity, no doubt, but it is moi
killing matter. AS yet nobody has
come nearer than within eight or ten
| miles of the Antarctic Continent. And per-
haps, after all, it is quite as well That there
| should be this little obscurity about it, While
80 to speak, the Antarctic Continent is under
| cloud, it is less likely to tempt high Official
minds with the thought of its annexation.
New-York tribune., 1874-06-11
Sustaining TIE PRESIDENT.

Congressional circles are still excited over
Mr.. Jones and the Presidents memorandum.
They regard it as ruinOus to the party, dicta-
torial and unprecedented, besides having a
variety of other bad qualities. We do not
find it worth while to pursue the inquiry they
have so spitefully started as to who wrote
the memorandum. Certainly it did not come
from the same brain that inspired the silly letter
to Mr.. COwdrey. 1t is just as certain that 1t
is out of keeping with number of other ex-
pressions which have been attributed to the
President, and with much of his action during
the past Winter.
But what would gentlemen havef People
whose sole object is to make political capital
may find it desirable to continue growing at
the President even when he does what they
want. AS for us, confess that we value
sound financial legislation and the adoption of
sound financial views by the Administration
far more than we do any partisan gains or
personal triumphs
The careers of Messrs. Boutwell, and Rich
ardson, in the Treasury Department, do not
give high promise of the success this Admin
istraton is likely to have in carrying out any
rational financial scheme. But craftsmanship
is not insisting upon ideally perfect theories,
or work; it is the art of getting the best thing
that happens to be attainable. For good or
ill Gen. Grant is to be at the head OF the
Government for two years yet. After long
dallying with imbeciles on the one hand and
inflationists on the other, he has at last
planted himself squarely on the side OF the
party of honest currency and the National
faith. We do not propose to stand
looking the gift horse in the mouth.
No matter what stupid mistakes he
may have made on this same subject
in the past, for this occasion the President is
right, and the financial safety of the country
is in his hands. The wise thing is for the solid
men of thecountry to hold them up till the going
down of the sun, and the completion of the vic
tory. Let Congressman rage and the infationists
imagine vain thing. In this matter OF the
currency we are on the side President Grant
has lately assumed, and the country is there

A POPULAR VICTORY.

In the passage of the Moiety bill by the
Senate, yesterday, we have evidence that
the popular voice does reach into the Senate
Chamber. Now that this measure, 30 impera-
tiyely demanded by the commerce Of the
country, has passed. it would be ungracious
to inquire too closely into the motives that
have been behind it, But il is very clear
that many Senators have supported it with
great reluctance they have tried, up to the
last, to kill it by indirection. Even as it has
now passed the Senate, the bill is not what
was originally asked of Congress. But con-
sidering the danger that at one time existed
that we might have none at all, this is an
actual relief measure. 1t abolishes the scan
dalous spy business, regulates salaries, repeals
the clause forfeiting whole invoices for the
irregularity of single item, and greatly
ameliorates the law relating to the seizure of
books and papers. 1t is thought, with some
show of reason, that the merchants of the
country will be satisfied with the bill as it
now stands.
The debate inIthe: Senate has brought out
into prominent relief two or three Administra-
ton Senators whose position on this measure
will be less agreeable to them hereafter than it
ia now. Senators Conkling and Howe have dis
tinguished themselves by open and insidious
attacks upon the bill. We do not understand
that these gentlemen, and one or two who
have sided with them, disguise their Opposi-
ton to the real purpose of the bill
relief of the importing interests. TO
these Senators, the political revenues Of the
Custom house were more than the public good.
Nevertheless, public opinion has won this
victory in tho Senate. The bill has been
amended in two important particulars-that
relating to the distribution Of informers' fees
in CAGES now pendius, and that which relates
New-York tribune., 1874-06-11
ANTARCTIC ANTAGONISTS.

No more agreeable topic could be suggested
for discussion in these sultry days of June,
than that which the voyagers in the British
ship Challenger have forced upon us. It is q
question between floating icebergs and terra
frma within the South Polar circle. Consult
ing our feelings and the thermometer, we are
inclined to embrace the iceberg side of the
question as the lesser risk of getting into hot
water. Letters from the Challenger expedition
published in England and here, describe q
circuitous voyage over portion of country
laid down on some imaginary maps as the
Antarctic continent and thereupOn many patri-
OTIS have been struck with gloomy forebOdings
that the British lion rampant was about to
claw into shreds the records of American
discoveries in polar geography in general, and
of Commodore Wilkes and his South Polar
expedition in particular. We propose to keep
cool and examine the facts.
History, as we all know, repeats herself !;
perhaps geography has tho same failing. At
all events mems minds change not much
though they cross all the seas between the
arctic and the antarctic circles; and
there seems to be besetting hallucina-
ton among polar navigators to mistake ice
fields for highlands in high latitudess In fact,
after much reading of arctic literature, we
are inclined to the belief that il all the
instances of "sighting land" were arrayed in
two columns, ono Of which should contain the
instances of remaining solid ground such as
Wordsworth talks about, and tho 0ther Of

GOING ABROAD.

The steamers are crowded as usual during
June with Americans, who find 1t cheaper. to
summer in Europe than in the Catskills or
Newport and Long Branch. The crowd going
out is not so great as last year, owing partly
to tho decrease in the exOrbitant prices of the
hotels, and partly to the wholesome dread of
fashionable folks of coming panic in Sep
tember. The gay birds have vague idea
that their plumage will be torn off and their
nests rifed again "when the crops begin to
"move," though why, or how, they are not
quite clear.
This reflex emigration back to Havre and
Liverpool is curious and amusing study, by
the way. The least number of pilgrims to the
Old World. strange to say, are of those who
came thence and have achieved success in the
New. Sandy and John Bull grumble and jeer
at their new home at first, and swear they
will only stay for year. But they never go
back to that purer state of morals and manners
they have left behind, but remain to grumble
ON happily to the end. Even Pat, who has
sloughed his jacket and caubeen for broad
cloth and high beaver lat, contents. himself
with sending photograph view Of his glorifed
estate, and does not 60 to hear the applause
and wonder of his neighbors.
1t is the American who thinks he has "made
"his pile" that hurries over to the old home
stead with a vague idea of learning how to
spend it. There is, too, in provincial neigh
borhOOds kind Of patent of aristocracy ac-
cruing to the man who has "been abroad" "
that urges Smith and Jones as soon as they
can command the means to hurry off to take
q glimpse of London or the Jungfrau. 1t
does not occur to them that they could find
as big o mountain in California, or as much
art, music, libraries, and specimens of varying
nationalities as they are educated to compre-
bend, In their own seaboard cities. 1t is the
prestige Of travel which they travel for, not
its ends. Yet in fact they are unconsciously
taught certain lessons, although the stored
knowledge of the older countries is lost on
them. They come homo with better percep-
ton Of the size of their own village, and their
own insignifcance, unless indeed they have
gone forth and returned, clothed with the
feathers of the American eagle, and carried
the crow Of that immortal bird with them to
the dulling of all other sounds. But the num-
Der of these patriotic souls is not large; COM
mon sense is q cOmmoner virtue than is pop
ularly supposed, and there can be no better
remedy for self-oonceit, especially in the case
of young man, than travel, the more extended
the better. He may be pleased to be looked
