The proposed north pole colonization
scheme for which Congress is asked to
give $4,000 ia endorsed by the American
Academy Of Science, Judge DAILY, Presi-
dent OF the United States Geographical
Society, Prois. Henry and Loomis and
DR.. Hayes. The proposition is to fit out
a company Of hardy Arctic mariners, to
equip them for three years, and dogs and
slcdges for travelling, and to get them
down in 81 north in Lady Franklin bay,
where u coal mine has been discovered,
and then leave them to work their way
toward the pole. Captains Tyson and
Chester, who were with the PoIaris, have
agreed to lead such An expedition. After
the men are comfortably qnartered, the
ship is to be taken away, the most rigid
military discipline to be observed in the
camp, and with no opportunity Of escape,
it il hoped that dissensions will be pre-.
vented, anl that valuable results will be
reached in the worl; Of exploration.

The State Of Florida was yesterday
given to Hayes and Wheeler, the vote
standing once more Z. The hour at
which we receive the news prevents any
extended comment. Those who are dis.
posed to lay stress on the political COM
ple1ion Of the vote will please bear in
mind that the Democrats all voted one
way, The only trouble with them was
that they did not have s votes instead
off,
This decision in regard to Florida
would seem to carry with it Louisiana,
nnlcsa there is something in the point
that has been raised in regard 10 that
State, that the Returning Board was mol
legally organized in having only four
members. This point is not likely TO be
sustained. The probabilities are that
Louisiana will be added to Florida for
Hayes, and, lastly, that Oregon will be
counted the same way
Those, therefore, who are sending in
petitions to "Presidcnp Tilden for Office
had better move to amend by striking
ont Tilden and inserting Hayes.
