Bets were offered in Washington on
Wednesday that the straight Republicans
would not have Io5 members in the next
House, but they went begging.
Senator Thurman and General Nor

The meeting was entirely successful.
A grand Democratic meeting was held
at Delaware on Wednesday. Hon. Geo.

Congressional elections have been held
so far, in one doubtful and two confess
sedly Republican States, and two Green
hackers, Two Democrats, and five Re-
publiCans have been elected. In the
present Congress these states have nine
Republicans in the House. At this rate
the Republican majority, which the orr
gans have claimed would be elected to
the next Congress will dwindle into a
minority of seventy. four.

When the schooner Florence, of the
Howgate Arctic Expedition, sailed from
New London on the 2nd day of August,
1877, she carried cartridges, tobacco and
other supplies for the Helen F. The Flo
renee arrived at Cumberland Inletin Oc'
tober last but it was not until late in No
vember that Captain Tyson, of that YES
sci, and Captain Roach met. Captain
Roach left the Florence on the fifth day
of last July. At that time her crew was
preparing to go to Quickstep Harbor, af
ter the blubber of the one whale which
it captured last fall. The vessel itself
was in Naintook harbor, sixty miles from
Quickstep. All were on board. except
John Mcfarland, of New London, who
had not recovered from being badly fro
zen when returning from the capture OF
the whale. 1t took five days to get back
TO the schooner, and Mcfarland who
was the only white man concerned in the
chase of the whale, suffered intensely
from the cold. Captain Tyson, has in
accordance with instructions from Capt
Howgate, stored a large quantity OF sup
plies at Disco. Mr.. Sherman, the mete-
orologist and photographer with the par
ty, has been indefatigable in his efforts
to increase the stock of scientific knoWl'
edge. All the winter he occupied
small hut upon hill which overhangs
Naintook harbor. The locality is ex-
ceedingly bleak and uninviting, but
Sherman. unmindful of the natural COM
forts ofthe place, gave almost his entire
time to the collection of meteorological
statistics. Night and day he was at his
post, occasionally relieved by two of the
crew of the Florence, who stood watch
and watch. No phenomena was suffered
to escape his notice, and probably he will
make larger additions to the scientific
knowledge of that particular locality
than any explorer before him has done,
Mr.. Kumlin, the naturalist, has gathered
many specimens of the fur-bearing and
other animals Of the country. While
preparing a specimen some months ago
he cut one of his fingers, and the wound
absorbed the virus in the animals body,
For six weeks his hand and arm were in
a critical state, and it was feared he wo'd
lose them. While disabled he taught
some of the native women to perform
his work, and they did it most deity
and cleverly. Captain Tyson induced
twelve natives to join his crew, and also
secured a number OF dogs for use in fu-
ture explorations. Last winter the Flo
renee slipped her anchor and drifted out
of the harbor, and was wedged in the
ice. When it broke up she got back to
port without damage. During, the win;
each @ other. When they parted Tyson
expected to make ready for the return
trip of the Florence on the 18th of Aug
ust. By this time he is well out of the
northern waters, and on his way to this
port.
