Where II the Antarctic Continents
We publish in another column highly in
teresting letter from young officer on board
he British discovery ship Challenger, for two
years past on voyage around the world, ad-
dressed to one of our best known explorers,
who has handed it to US with full apprecia-
ton of its value 1t has long been disputed
question whether the Arctic Ocean was an
open sea, and whether ct the South
Pole there was land The late Lieutenant
Maury had an ingenious theory that OPP
posite to land we would always find
water, and hence if there was an ocean about
the North Pole there must be q continent at
the South Pole. This theory has seemed to
have been confirmed by many discoveries of
land in the Southern hemisphere, and among
others of a stretch of coast line which has
Continent" which Wilkes claimed to have
seen in January, 1840 Its existence has often
been called in question. The letter which we
publish from Lieutenant Hynes, of the Chal-
lenger, to DR.. Hayes, shows that no such land
exists; that Wilkes saw, in fact nothing
but ice fields and icebergs.
Thus we see one problem after another
solved with the greater accuracy and
perfection of scientific appliances; but
it is not often that whole continent is
so suddenly bowled down, as if it were
but one of set Of ninepins, on the general
plan Of progressive science. Notwithstand-
ing, however, that the Challenger has in point
of fact sailed over the land OF Wilkes, yet we
must believe that land does exist in the vicn-
ity Of the South Pole; for otherwise, while
whatever ice might be formed upon the sea,
icebergs could not be created inasmuch as
land is necessary, the iceberg being frag-
ment of the glacier, which is always Of noun
tain origin, and, according to the best accounts,
icebergs are more numerous and larger in the
Antarctic than in the Arctic Seas. The truth
is we know too little about either of these
dreary regions Of the earth. In the interests
of commerce neither of the poles are likely
ever to prove of greater value than for the
capture of whales, sea elephants and seals !;
but to science they are of infinite importance,
and in the new awakening Of geographical
exploration they cannot much longer be o
! simple myth to the ignorant and wonder to
the wise" Let the Challenger go on in
well doing, and we wish like good future to

rora, which, under command of Commander
Belknap, United States Navy, has done such
splendid work in the Pacific

Solicitor to the Treasury has resigned, and

not be well understood that this act was

crowded out by any moral pressure. of public
opinion, although his relation to the Sanborn

notion that that was the real cause of his leav-
ing lucrative post. He did not even receive
little hint from persons in authority that his
place was wanted. He was neither kicked out
nor requested to leave. His going was
"purely voluntary" He should now make
one more explanation and let us know whether
he means this as an imputation on his su-

The Gear and tho Peace OF Europe.
The Emperor Alexander of Russia has re-
turned to his capital, and, Of course, the st.
Petersburg press is talking loudly of the good
work which he has done on his Western tour
The tour has been q very quiet one. If we
could only believe that monarchs and great
diplomatists could do anything like ordinary
people, we might see in this little trip to and
from the British capital nothing but a friendly
visit to Her Britannia Majesty and her FAM
lily, Of which his only daughter has SO recently
become member 1t is far from improba-
BILE, however, that international politics dur
ing his tour largely occupied the Emperor's
thoughts and engaged not little of his time.
He can do much to conserve the peace of
Europe, but the preservation Of the peace of
Europe does not depend on him alone. There
are others who must be consulted in the mat
ter, and who for good or for evil are quite as
powerful as the Gar 1t would not be diff
cult to point out some signs of the times
which are portentous of coming evil. France
and Spain both hesitate and refuse to decide
as to the respective merits Of the Republic and
the Monarchy. There is fresh talk about
German designs on Luxembourg The East
ern question reposes; but it may be burst
upon the world in most dangerous form at
any moment 1t is well that the Gar is in
favor of peace; for although he could not pre-
vent European war now any more than he
could have prevented the late war between
France and Germany, his word is law to many
millions Of people and a mighty power in the
councils OF Europe.

Senator Sumner in his intense hatred of
Southern white people and love for the negro,
has devoted his energies for years past in at
tempting to degrade the one and elevate the
other. His pet scheme to accomplish this
is the Civil Rights" bill, now under consid-
Grafton at Washington. If Congress should
act SO unwisely as to make it law, and in
carrying out its provisions, among other
things, attempt 10 force the white schools TO
admit colorcd children, Mr.. Sumner will
find, that instead of benefitting his fayorte
race, he will have done them positive iniu.
ry. In all the Southern States provision is
made for the education of colored children,
by taxes levied upon the white people, and
every year shows increased liberality towards
the colorcd schools on the part ofthe whites
If Mr.. Sumner succeeds in carrying through
his obnoxious measure, all this will cease
The white people of the South do not intend
and can not be forced by any law of Con-
gress TO send their children to mixed schools
Rather than submit to that all the public
schools, white and black, would be closed
by the repeal Of the school laws, and the
white children sent to private schools, sup
ported by subscription. Does any one sup
pose that schools for colored children.could be
supported in like manner? The alternative
is not pleasant one, certainly; but it will
be adopted in Maryland at least, in prefer
ence 10 mixed schools.
In this connection we publish the letter of
Professor M. A. Newell, President of the
Maryland State Board of Education, to the
Hon. Lloyd Lowndes, member of Congress
from the 9th congressional district of the
State, in relation to the subject;
OFFICE OF TIE STATE BOARD OF EpU-)
CATION, BALTIMORE, January I'd, 1874 {
Hon. Lloyd Loeondes:
Dear Sir-It is currently reported here
that one effect of the Civil Rights bill now
before the House of Representatives, if
passed, will be to throw open the public
schools to colored children. 1t is also re-
ported that prominent member of the
Maryland Legislature has prepared bill
for the abolition of the public school svs-
tenn of the State, which he means to intro
duce in the event Of the Civil Rights bill
becoming law
1t would be very unfortunate indeed, if
the attempt to open the public schools to
colored children should result in our State
in closing them against white children, but
it cannot be concealed that if the issue were
presented to the Legislature of "miycd
schools" or mo schools" there would prob
ably be majority for "no Schools"
During the past year there has been 210
schools opened to colored children They
lave been attended by more than 10000
pupils, and have cost the State 800 ,577.1S.
This is very well for one years work; but
the people are prepared to do more and
better; and, not interfercd with will make
ample provision for all the colorcd children
within their borders.
1t would be great pity that this grand
work should be arrested. In Maryland, for
the present at least, we must have separate
schools or no schools

THE SEASON OF RABIEs.-lf the present
season is lne-cminent for any one thing, in
this ncighborhood it is for the great number
OF cases Of hydrophobia that are reported
We mentioned last week the fact of mad
dog having run a muck" through the streets
Of Bel Air, biting every dog he saw, and
finally being killed near the town. On Satur-
day last another mad dog passed through,
and although several attempts were made to
kill him, he escaped.
A COW belonging to Mr.. Wheeler, living
near the Hickory, went mad and was killed
on Saturday.
One day last week a little girl living near
Thomas's Run, was bitten on the lip by u
mad cat
These are but few Of the apparently well
authenticated reports of cases of hydrophobia
that have reached us. In our opinion it is
criminal negligence for any one to permit a
dog that rests under the slightest suspicion
of having been bitten, to go at large. The
disease may not be developed for weeks, and
suddenly break out With the gl. - -
lence Kill every suspected dog, is the only
safe rule.
