WNTERNe IN THE ARCTIC REGIONS. -

day view of winter passed in the frozen
regions of thick ribbed ice that will certainly
be new to the great majority Of readers and
which tends in some degree to strip Arctic
exploration of it's terrors The Doctor sup
ports his view of the comparative safety of
wintering in the Arctic seas with the facts in
hand, and shows even that the proportion
of calamities to voyages is lower than it is
in many seas commonly deemed far less dan

is not so clear that its honor IS
bound to procure the gold by any particular
method. We presume the public creditors
would be equally satisfied if the gold were
raised in any other manner. 1t is not proba-
BILE that the value of the government bonds
would depreciate at all by a change IN the
method of providing the gold. But, be this
as it may it is quite certain that the payment
of the customs revenue in greenbacks would
have a good effect on the currency and tend
10 appreciate its value. Besides relieving
the government of the reproach of discredit-
ing its ewn paper, which is the point made
by Senator Ferry, it would have another
important effect which he does not explain.
1t would increase the uses of the currency
and diminish the amount in circulation, and
both parts of the process would enhance its
value The increased employment it would
give TO greenback is obvious. But, besides
this substitution for gold in collecting the
customs revenue, a considerable proportion
which is now kept in circulation would
be locked up in the Treasury as
gold from the same source is now
locked up. If the public faith
is pledged to different course the public
faith must be kept; but it seems like a strain
ing of the statute to put upon it such con-
struction If doubts can be removed on this
point there is no one measure of preparation
for specie payment so valuable as that recon-
mended by Mr. Ferry.
We totally dissent from the view which he
held in the spring of 1874, and which he still
defends, in favor of increasing the paper cur
rency to eight hundred millions, and fixing
that as the maximum limit. But that is an
obsolete question. 1t is only the present
opinions of the President of the Senate
that are of any particular interest to the
country. We are glad that we find so much
in his present views to approve, and we think
we have done a valuable service in drawing
them out and appeasing widespread solici-
tude. We thank the President of the Senate
for the frankness and courtesy with which he
responded to our request and communicated
his views for the information of the country.

THE SUEz CANAL has been purchased by
Great Britain as a political measure This
stop is bold and audacious one, and consid-
cred in relation to the British possessions in
India, the encroachments of Russia in Cen
trail Asia, the natural antagonisms between
which are constantly springing out Of the
Eastern question, its importance cannot be
overestimated. The possession of this great
work gives England powerful advantage in
the complications of the future, the Suez

the communication between the West and
the East.

PLYMOUTH CHURCH had quite an exciting
and important business meeting last night.
Several letters of withdrawal were received
from members, and also one from Mrs. Fanny
West, asking that her name be dropped.
The latter letter was finally referred to the
Examining Committee, as was also
the case of her husband. But the
importance of the meeting was found in the
action taken by the church in relation to
Mrs. Emma G. Moultons letter of defiance.
lengthy document was submitted, review
ing the question from Plymouth aspect,
and deciding to grant her request for coun-
Gil to judge of the case in all its
bearings The answer was finally
adopted and the details left for the Exam
ing Committee to arrange. This decision on
the part of Plymouth church will undoubt-
edly renew the discussion over the great
scandal, and once more will the public be
worried by the troubles and griefs Of the
Plymouth pastor.

Know Nothingism in Tammany Hail


One of the objections to Tammany Hall il
that it is a secret association. There is
lodge which meets in private, the members
of which are governed by passwords and
grips and signals who have no responsibility
to the people, whose deliberations are un-
known and who have power to dictate who
shall be the chief of Tammany Hall. Now,
in the old Know Nothing times, when
secret organization claimed to do this thing.
to ostracize men because they were Germans
or Englishmen or Irishmen or Catholics,
there was great howl all over the country.
The common sense of the American people
stamped 1t out as an invasion of public
liberty and violation Of national rights.
Since then the name Of Know Nothingism
has been a reproach to every man who
belonged to the Order Those who
were prominent in the movement have
been diligently striving to erase that part of
their record. Tammany Hall is only a
Know Nothing society in another form but,
like the Know Nothings, it claims to ostra-
cze every honest democrat who will not be
governed by the will of an irresponsible
leader who is not liable to public opinion,
who is elected no one knows by whom, who is
not open to impeachment or censure or even
removal from office, who is q mystery and is
capable of the highest acts of tyranny, be-
cause there is no way to reach him.

The Programme for the International
Rowing Contests at Philadelphia.

We lay before our readers this morning the
official card Of the committee appointed by
the Schuylkiu Navy to take charge of the
great rowing meeting next summer at Phila-
delphia, and the long and excellent standing
of the many clubs composing this organiza-
ton is ample guarantee that the conduct of
the affair will reflect credit on the nation.
The programme has many noticeable fea-
lures. While it is customary to divide row.
ing into amateur and professional only, the
committee has wisely separated the former
into three classes namely, that for college
graduates, college undergraduates, and crews
composed exclusively of neither. The first
distinction-made at the suggestion Of the
HERALD-introduces a new and valuable
feature in this country, though not unknown
abroad In preparing for it, as for all the
contests, there should not be a day lost
Many foreigners, and especially Englishmen
of the better classes, purpose attending the
Exhibition in large numbers. Out of Oxford
and Cambridge alone are annually graduated
the material for many excellent crews, and
there is good prospect that our oarsmen
will find backing up to the line next season,
in the presence of an assembly not unlike
that which yearly pours out of London to
view the Putney to Mortlake contest, more
than one English crew well able to put them
to their very best Columbia and Cornell
have already shown themselves entirely safe
custodians of the fair name of the Empire
State, and both are looking sharply
to keep the Undergraduate champion
ship within the State during 1876
also. Now let Messrs. Rees and Ra-
pallo, Timpson and Cornell. of Colum-
bia, work together q couple of hours daily
this winter let Messrs. Bacon and Kennedy,
of Yale, call in two of their old mates let
Mr.. Loring bring from Boston three Of the
men who sat behind him in '6S, and Mr.
Eustis put another good Wesleyan with
Messrs Rodgers and Downs, work them this
winter and coach them all next season, as
they know how to; and Mr.. John Chambers,
even though he has rowed two hundred races,
may bring the bestthree Cambridge graduates
he can get and find plenty of work cut out
for them. Already the undergraduates have
learned how to insure fast and close work
all over lie course and, with old and sea-
soned stuff like this, there is ample promise
of really superb racing in these graduate
contests also, especially as the distance is
limited to a mile and half
Another and welcome feature is that six
cared boats are at last done away with, and
club work confined to fours. TO this end
we have labored in season and out of sea-
son. Now there will be no more weak or
doubtful men In the crews on which we
stake our names. -Four excellent men have
i often sat in boat, six almost never. Limit
ing it to four, there are sure to be good re-
\ lays, the boat is more easily handled on
water or land, costs less, can probably be
better modelled, and will now accommodate

IT IS SELDOM moneyed institution makes
so bad a showing as that of the Central Park
Savings Bank. With only forty-ive thou
sand dollars of deposits building was
bought which was to cost seventy thousand
dollars, and forty thousand dollars of the
depositors' money was paid for it. These
facts are in themselves sufficient condem-
nation Of the management Of the institution.
The list of broken banks, especially savings
banks, is becoming alarmingly large, and
if the failures continue depositors will not
feel security anywhere. Rigid investigation
and rigorous punishment are the only reme-
dies in these and other cases which may fol-
low after them.

AND Now COUNT VoN ARNIM is to be in
dicted for treason on the charge of being the
author of the irritating pamphlet which re-
Gently appeared in regard to the trial and
punishment of that distinguished statesman.
1t must be confessed that the work was as
imprudent as it was bitter, and among other
things both the Prince Chancellor and the
ambassador, in an interview which took
place between them in 1873, are represented
as deficient in dignity as two fishwives. Bis
marck's treatment of Won Arnim, long before
the trial. is characterized as cruel persecu-
ton; but the cause of all the trouble seems
to lie in the fears of the former and the
hopes of the latter in regard to the sue
cession to the Prince Chancellor's place.
This being the case Won Arnim will certainly
be indicted and convicted of treason if Bis
marck lives long enough to effect this pur-
pose.
