Although the EuglISh ale uOt So uItI-

81 populations IN Great Britain gives to
the English press much greater circula.
ton than ours can boast. The i.sne. II
the great daily newspapers are almost
universally exaggerated in The ponIIar
estimation. The definite figures are
something which it is difficult to attain.
because each journal finds it To il, iutcr.
est to hei9hien rather than 10 rectify the
popular estimate OF its influence. Thu.
i i common tallacy that tho New
ork Herald is the most widely circuIa-
ted journal upon the continent, il not in
the world; while, in fact, ii should rank
fourth OF fifth only.
There are probably but two papers in
America which have surpassed one hun
dred thousand copies in their regular
daily issue. These are the New York
sun and the Boston Herald, the former
first and the latter second in extent of
circulation. Next comes the cbeau
Philadelphia Ledger, with eighty to
ninety thousand; and then. nearly neck
aud neck. the New York Herald and
Baltimore sun, with between tifty and
seventy thousand each From these fig.
ufen there Is quick descent to the Sc
cond grade OF circulation, occupied by
the New \ Ork Tribune and Times. with
probably between thirty and forty
thousand each. aud the two LEADING
chicago papers, the Cincinnati Com
mercial aud the Boston Journal, with
between twenty aud thirty thousand.
L i perfectly safe 10 say that this list
includes all daily papers in the country,
having over twenty thousand regular
circulation.
Inc London papers present much
larger ignres. The London Daily Tel
eefsph, paper larger than the New
York Tribune, and something like he
New YORK Herald in cheap sensational
isiii but wonderful enterprise, is sold
Tor one penny or two cents and averages
10000 copies daily. The Standard,
paper oi similar size, pretensions aud
pflce, comes next with considerably ov
er 100000. The liberal organ, the Daily
news. an immense penn, qIarto, prints
from seventy five to eighty thousand
copies regularly. The great Lond don
Times ranking first in the world in
power and influence, charges the excep-
tionai price OF three pence or six cents,
aud prints hardly more copies than its
New YORK namesake. The Paris daIlies
are mostly ephemeral, but in their short
ilves sometimes attain circulations of
two hundred thousand.-lLew

The VALUE OF ADvERTIsiSG.-A num-
Der of years ago, when Orange Judd, pub
Usher OF the American Agricuturist, and
his wife, spent their evenings in putting up
packages OF seeds, and penny had its
full value 10 them. he sent boy with a
check for 500 to the New York Herald
Office, with Instructions to pay what was
due and leave the rest for advertising. The
boy, being dull of comprehension, did not
understand him and told the book keeper
to use 500 tor one day The next morn
ing what was Mr.. Judd's horror to see, on
taking UP the Herald, Read the Ameri
can Agrlculturist'' repeated for nearly a
whole column. He rushed down to the
ofhee for an explanation, and found
that they had only followed Instructions,
and there was no help for it. We are
ruined" he said to his wife - whole
years advertisement gone in one dav."
Bot instead of being his ruin. it was the
beginning of his success Immediately
subscription. poured in from all over the
country. The Agriculturist became an in
stitution, and its proprietor is one OF the
wealthiest men OF New York. Mr.. Judd
hss continued from that day of his lucky
mistake to be one of the most extensive and
wealthiest advertisers in the country.

FoREIcN NEW 8.

LONDON, April Is.
In tho Commons this evening, Sui
Ivan wanted to know whether the
law in regard to bearing arms in Ire
land would in any way Interfere with
the American rilemen Who are coming
to Ireland to take part i'll the Inter
national Rifle Match.
The Chief Secretary of Ireland re-
piled that all classes would heartily
welcome the American team this SUM
mer. The gentlemen from the United
States, who we're to take part in the
coming match, were undoubtedly law
abiding citizens, and there was no rea-
son to suppose they would break the
law or be- any more likely to renIer
themselves liable than Scotchmen or
Englishmen.
Sullivan insisted on a positive assur-
ance, so that there might be no misap-
~prehension.
The Chief Secretary replied that there
would be no interference with tie WIS.,
itors, as it was we'll understood they
had no intention of breaking the law,
but ii necessary special arrangement
would be made to secure entire free
dom OF movement and exemption
from the formal operation OF the law.

SEVERAL of our Nevada exchanges
comment severely on the late report OF
Mr.. Whitehill, the State Mineralogist.
The position of Mr.. Whitehill IL a Pc
culiarly delicate and embarrassing one.
1t is q very difficult and almost hope
less task to collate full particulars con-
corning the numerous districts and
mines, and in the limited space '1evot-
ed 10 the purpose it is impossible to
present a satisfactory. exhibit which
shall cover all or evenea large part OF
the ground. Mining spien are very
sensitive about their respective inter-
ests, and are naturally anxious that
their properties should be fairly repre-
scented. If an oversight IL made, some
one Is certain to detect it and regard
any omission as a slight. Nevada has
been thoughtful and liberal in provid-
ing for an object so important in its
bearings upon the welfare of a mining
State; but a complete neurological
report would require the expenditure
of very large sums and call Tor the
services of an increased force of assist
ants. We know Mr.. Whilehill to DO a
man of thorough scientific training,
and regret that That he has come in
collision with the newspapers. We
have read the report, and though we
could pick many flaws in it., as in all
similar publications, we cannot hut re-
gard it in the main as a very crediiable
work, all things considered; and,
while it Is not extended enough to be
an exhaustive one, it Is a valuable com
pilation. 1t should be remembered
that reports of governmental bureaus,
with which fault Is invariably found.
cost enormous sums of money, and
usually ten times as much as this one

TIM xoKrH POLE.
MFR. Disrsei. shortly after his Access
sion to power last year, officially in
formed the Brp sh Admiralty that the
Government ha resolved to send An
expedition to explore the Arctic coun-
try, and n possible to reach the Pole.
Since that time p~rsparntions have been
actively going On. A hoard of naval
o~ficsrs, experienced 10 Arctic naviga-
zion, was formed ~ consultation.
Great care was exercksd ID re selec-
tion Of a commanding oficer. The
subordinate officers, Acientfic assist
snts and crew have been picked from a
host of volunteers, the selection in
each case being guided by the physical
aud mental fitness OF the candidate for
the special work involved in Arctic ex-
neutrality-suspicious. in this perilous
labor being largely taken into account.
The advice Of eminent men in all de-
partments Of science, as to the advant-
ages that may be derived from a sue
cessful examination Of the Polar re-
gions has been invoked. The plan OF
campaign has been carefully and elab-
orately designed, the course for every
day spent, from the sailing to tho re-
turn of the expedition being staked out,
with directions as to what shall be
done to meet this and that possible
emergency, even to the eventual aban-
donment of the ships if necessity re-
quires. The vessels to compose the
expedition have been chosen with the
same d~eliberation. Aud to crown all,
Parliament has made the generous al
lowance Of nearly half q million Of
dollars to fit out the enterprise. and
will maintain it on the same liberal
scale. rs 81
The start will be made in the early
Summer, two vessels, . steamer be-
longing to the navy, named the Alert,
and . whaling ship rechristened the
Discovery, will lead the van and do
the best Of the work. The route to the
Pole by Smiths Sound is preferred,
and ct the entrance of the Sound a re-
lief OF depot ship will be stationed.
A vessel called the Pandora, fitted out
by private enterprise, in part that of
Lady Franklin, is expected to COON
pany the expedition. This Summer no
moro will be attempted than to push
~ mr north ~. possible, and secure
winter quarters. In the Spring of
1875 . great overland sledging expedi-
ton will set out in search of the Pole.
This Is the main purpose of the voy-
age, and all the preparations are bent
In that direction. Should this tour of
discovery be successful the vessels
will return to England before the next
Winter begins. But should it be
thought advisable 10 stay through an
other Winter and continue expiora-
lions, provision has been made for
that contingency also. 1t Is announced
that the Government has sent out d.
