THE EVENT OF THE CENTURY.

From the New York Commercial Advertiser. July 81
The American Arctic exploring vessel the Jcannette.
sails from San Francisco to-day. The vessel goes
thoroughly equipped. is manned by an enthusiastic
company. and under the command of an officer of
the navy. 1t is not likely there will be any Of that
divided authority which made the voyage of the
polaris such q miserable failure. Should success
crown tho efforts OF the gallant commander IL will be
one Of the most brilliant geographical victories ever
won by one man. The solution of the northern
