On Friday of last week Mr.. Wash
ington Wyatt died very suddenly
at the residence of Mr.. Cloud, in
Christian county, Ky. He left Mr..
Barker's house, in that neighbor-
hood, TO go fishing, and was soon
taken sick. He went to Mr.. Clouds
and laid down, and in about half an
hour was found dead in bed. He
did not think that he was seriously
i'll, but that he would soon recover,
and consequently no physician was
sent for. He is thought to have
died of heart disease. He had made
his home at Messrs. Chiles and John
Barker's for the last twenty-eight
years. He was in the 9th year of
his age, and was an honest, upright
man in every particular, and his
death is deeply mourned by large
circle of relatives and friends. His
remains were deposited in the fam
lily burying ground of Mr.. Chiles
Barker on Saturday evening.

YoUNG NAPoLEoN's WILL.-The will of the
late Prince Napoleon is dated Feb. 20, 1879,
and is said to have been drawn uD by himself
alone the night before his departure for the
Cape 1t was found in box ut Camden
Place, inclosed in an envelope on which was
written, This is my will and must not be
opened until after my death" The opening
clauses are as follows:
This is my testament
/. die in the Catholic Apostolic and Ro-
man religion in which was born.
,. l desire that my body may be laid near
that of my father until the time comes when
both may be transferred to the spot where
the founder of our house reposes among the
French people, whom We, like him, dearly
loved
3. Ny latest thought will be for my coun-
try for which l would wish to die.
(. l hope my mother, when l shall be no
more, will maintain for me that atlectionate
remembrance which l shall cherish for her to
the last moment
=. Let my personal friends, my servants
and the partisans of the cause which l repre-
sent be assured that my gratitude to them
will only cease with my life.
q. l shall die with a sentiment of profound
gratitude toward the Queen of England the
ththc lNogai hlIlAgf anu thO NbHhNi9 III
which during eight years have received
such cordial hospitality. l constitute my
mother my residuary legatee, subject to the
payment of the following legacies:
Then follows a list of legacies amounting
to 720, 900 francs, for several of the Princes
friends, his former tutor, lady who had
shown herself attached to his mother, and
others, with annuities for his servants and a
distribution of his jewelry and trinkets, In a
supplementary portion of the will, following
the first signature, is the following;
need not recommend my mother to neg
lect nothing to defend the memory of my
great uncle and father. l beg her to remem-
Der that as long as there are Bonapartes the
Imperial cause will have representatives. The
duties of our house toward the country will
not expire with my life. When l die the
task of continuing the work of Napoleon /.
and of Napoleon Ill will fall to the eldest
son of Prince Napoleon, and l hope my be-
loved mother, by supporting him with all
her power, will give TO us who shall be no
more this last and crowning proof of afIec-
ton NAPOLEON.

ARE THE POLAR REGIONS HABITABLE ?-At
the reception given by the San Francisco
Academy Of Sciences to the members of the
Bennett Exploring Expedition to the North
Pole. Just before the departure of the Jean
Hftte, Mr.. Charles Walcott Brooks discussed
the question of the existence of an arctic con-
tincnt; and the probability of its being inhab-
itcd. Il Nt carefully examine, says Mr..
Brooks. the almost universal features of all
land known to us, we find a prevailing form
wherever we turn. Each territorial area of
magnitude seems to have an appendage trend
ing southwark. If We apply this rule, by
turning the North Pole OF globe toward us,
We readily see at a glance that Greenland,
which is known to US, may bear to an un-
known arctic continent the same relation that
South America docs to North America. or AZ
rica to Europe. Hence il is perfectly logical
TO infer, by the great analogy of nature, that
an arctic continent exists beneath the North
Pole, extending three and half to four de-
grcos south from the northern axis of the
earth. As previous arctic expeditions have
advanced to So 2G' north latitude-or with
in 3J4 miles of the pole-the distance thence
to such a continent would not exceed about
$50 to $50 miles. This intervening space,
however, is difficult to traverse as it presents
a very rough surface. If the sea during the
height of gale, when waves ran mountain
high, were instantly frozen, it would present
much the appearance here encountered. For
ethuolcgists the question is, can an arctic
continent be inhabited, should one exist !!
This may be met by the well known fact, that
the latitude of IS is about the point of low
est mean temperature. The earth is about
thirty-seven miles less in diameter at the
equator than from pole to pole, having en-
larged atone point and fattened at another,
because of its revolving motion. Now it is
countered as We ascend high attitudes, and
the depression at the poles may, by lessening
the distance of the surface from the earth B
centre, afford warmer temperature, which
will enable the hardy Esquimaux, Amos, or
some other hyperborean race, to exist upon
an arctic continent.
