THE CRUISE or THE FLORENCE; or, EN-
TRACTS FROM THE JOURNAL OF THE PRE-
LlMINARN ARCTIC EXPEDITION OF lST7-7S.
Edited by Captain II. W. HowGATE. L. $. A.
Washington u. c.: James j. Chapman.
We are indebted to the polite attention of
the publisher for an early copy of this work,
for which he will accept our grateful &C.
acknowledgements. The circumstances under
which the Florenco-a schooner of ffty-six
tons-made cruise for the Arctic circle are
perfectly familiar to the reader. 1t will be
recollected that tho Chief Signal Officer of the
Army furnished the necessary outfit in the
way of instruments of meteorological observa-
tions, while the Surgeon. General furnished a
supply of medicines, the necessary surgical in
struments for Use in case of accident, and the
Quartermaster- General furnished tents and
camp equippage, while the Secretary of the
Navy furnished a complete outfit of maps,
charts and sailing directions. Thus prepared,
the Florence set sail from New London August
3, 1877, ard reached New Foundland on her
homoward voyage September 49, 1873. Captain
Howgate has taken the journal of the cruise
| Of the Florence and woven it into very grace
ful narrative, which cannot fail to interest the
reader. 1t adds another valuable chapter of
the history of the regions that lie between
| civilization and the North Pole. The work il
skillfully edited and well printed and must at
tain to a good degree of popularity with the
reading world.

THERE Is a rumor a1oat that after the cleo
tions this year-if the cat jumps that way
the Philadelphia Times and its editor, Colonel
MCCLURE will preciptate themselves into the
GRANT boom.-PiHsbug Post.
Well, what of it? The GRANT flood is
very likely to pick up and bear upon its
bosom a great deal of floating material.
The GRANT boom in all probability will not
despise the day of small things 1t will

THE Bank of England seems to be in some
peril. Ex-Governor Army, ofNew Mexico and
Washington, is en- route to England to estab-
lish the claim of twenty-six Americans to
their share of the HYDE estate, which has
nearly S1OO,OO0000 on deposit in the Bank
of England and which will be divided
among them MS soon as they make their
claims good. To pay this claim would dis
embowel the bank and leave it emptier
than TILDEN's bar'l in December, 1876.
When these claimants get this S1OO,OOO,OOO,
we shall all be rich. The bank will no
doubt be amply protected against this little
run
