LOSS OF THE JEANETTE.

The vessel fitted out by James Gordon
Bennett to find the North Pole and advertze
the Herald is reported lost. Although the re-
port comes from no well authenticated source,
and the story was gathered mainly from the
fishermen along the coast OF Iceland, it is
probably correct, and the men who faced fate
IN the icy seas around the North Pole have
doubtless persisted miserably, as hundreds of
others have before them. The Jeanette was o
we'll equipped vessel and manned and pro
visioned with great care, but it was not built
originally for such terrible service, and COM
petent naval architects condemned its hull as
not being sufficiently strong to Withstand the
shocks of the ice. This only adds another
ship and it's crew to the long list of casualties
resulting from an a.temp. to find an open
Polar sea and penetrate the mysteries which
lie beyond the 84th parallel of latitude. 1t is
net probable, however, that the fate Of the
Jeanette will in any way cool the ardor Of the
Arctic explorer. Science is never cast down
by failure and knows no fear For years to
come the Arctic Seas will hold the secret Of
tho northwest passage and ship after ship will
be fitted out only to be crushed ia the re-
morseless jaws of the iceburge

BERNHARDT.

New York is boiling with excitement over
Bsrnhardt, the famous Partisan actress, who
comes from theater which was founded by
the government of France just two hundred
years ago, and whose green.room has been the
resort, since that time, of the greatest lights
in the world of art and literature. The
great question in New York, with the upper
crust of society, is, whether or not to recog-
nize Bernhardt socially, considering the fact
that she has four illegitinaate children. Tie
so called first families of New York who live
On Fifth Avenue and lead the fashions, will
recognize the talented Partisan, and overlook
her eccen.ricities, because as rule they care
nothing for those qualities of mind and heart
which make woman pure and virtuous. There
is scarcely wealthy family in New York who
would not spend any money and resort to any
device in order to have the Bernhardt at it's
house that she might attract fashionable
gathering. Does any one suppose that a fam
lily which has only been able to retain its 70.
spectability through tho assistance and reti.
cence of Madam Restell will really have any
desire to ignore Bernhardt with her family, of
whom she says, 1.-THE best blood of Europe is
concentrated in my children; they spring
from such grand sources that / am not
ashamed of them." Although really good
and pure mothers will shrink from co..',.ct
with such woman, the fact that she has not
added hypocricy to her altogether unorthedox
ideas of raising family, will 40 . lsng way
toward shielding her from the stones which
those without sin would be asked to cast at
her. The proposition of discussing the
morals of Bernhardt is not specially necessary.
Sho comes to America as q great actress, and

ATTEMPT TO BURN EERsKA- There has
been another attempt to burn Eureka, and
the Sentinel gives its opinion on the subject in
the following unmistaka5le language:
The scoundrel or scoundrels who attempted
this dsstardly and diabolical crime should, if
detected, be treated to short shift and
strong rope. They are not men, but devils,
and should not be allowed to cumber the
earth. 1t is not their fault that last night in
necent vemen and little children did not per-
ish in horrible and agonizng death. The
man who commits murder for revenge or gain
is saint to such internal miscreants. This
is preof that there are dangerous characters
in our midst, and if cur citizens desire to pre-
serve the lives of their wives and little ones,
to say nothing Of their property, they will or
aanize a. once. Let the town be patrolled
and suspicious characters warned. We say
to our citizens that now vigilance is the price
Of safety. This is no sensational alarm.

MR.. ROBINsON's QUERIES.

ing bids, which we have no difficulty in recog-
nizing as coming from Mr. Marshall Robinson
They are as follows
When tho APPEALS bid was presented did
not the original figures named for work to DO
done under Specification read $50 per thou
sind for plain composition and were not the
words "for plain composition erased after
the bid had been presented
No. There was no change in the bid after
i. was first presented, from the simple fact
that the bid was sealed when presented and
opened in the presence of the Board. Since
the time that it was sealed and presented it
did not leave the Controllers office. nor was
it ever seen or handled by any attache
of this Office until some three months ago,
when copy was made Of it in presence of
the clerk
Did not the ApPEAL's original bid state sep.
arate rates for "rule work" and also for rule
and figure work." and was not the bid after
ward amended to read, "rule and figure work?'
It was not. The editor of the Times could
easily have ascertalned that fact by inspecting
the original bids at the Controller office He
can still inspect them.
Was not the original bid of the APPEAL for
rule and figure work changed, after being pre-
scented, from 81 to 80 cents per thousand
It was not What would have been gained
by changing the rates after the bids were
opened, as the original price, one dollar, was
eleven cents lower that RobiRson'sl
The original bids can be Scent the Cantroll-

by inspecting them, or he can see the certified
copies by calling at this Office instead of al
lowing Mir. Robinson to prompt his questions.

tons upon the integrity of the Beard and it's

to be tempered with let them also be invest.

The Democrats and the Republicans
are alike trying to make every edge cut
The Republicans are not so confident
of success in the presidential election as
many of them profess TO be, and the
Democrats are not 80 respondent as
they were n week or two ago. "A new
spirit is being infused into the party,
and hope has taken the place of appre-
hension.
There is one view of the case which
gives the Republicans some trouble. If
the Democrats carry New York, New
Jersey, and the solid South, as they con-
fidently expect to do, they will lack on
" three electoral votes ofharing enough
10 elect Hancock without vote from
Connecticut, Indiana, Oregon, Caliior-
MIA, Nevada, or New Hampshire. all OF
which States they stand chance to car
nv. New York, New Jersey, and the
South cast 1872 votes IF the RepubIl-
cans carry all the rest of the States ex-
cept Maine, Gn which State Plaisted,
Greep5acker, was elected last monthly
they will have $50 votes to our 1872.
Then the vote of Maine will decide
whether Hancock or Garfield shall be
i WI. :; ,lc ,,roSnoct in Moina9
MANY Democrats deem it not at all
bright, being under the impression that
the chance of the Fusionists for success
I'm Mains was los. when the straight-out
Green0ackers nominated all electoral
ticket Of their own to run in that State
against the Fusion ticket. But the fact
is, rs we now learn, that the four Green
hackers who are on the Fusion ticket
are also on the GreeubaCk ticket. Con-
seuuently these four electors ought to
receive the same vote that Plaisted re-
ceived in September, and be elected. If
they do, and the other three Greenback-
ers are defeated, the Republicans will
get only three votes in Maine, and the
Union will be 1873 for Garfield, 1872 for
Hancock, and for Weaver. That
would he stranger outcome than the
result in 1876. But these four Green
hackers would vote for Hancock rather
than see Garfield elected, as Is abund-
sntly shown by the conduct of their
party and themselves last month and
since. The most that they could do
would be othrow the election into the
House of Representatives, which would
of course choose General Hancock.
This is "a close calculation" indeed.
But stranger things have happened than
would be the election of Hancock under
the circumstances we have mentioned.

Please note that in the correction the
telegram from Hagerstown il made to
say that 'the trestle is The only unfn
i,hed portion of the road now under
construction. You will see from this
extract that the correction is almost
worse than the original notice. 1t
should have read that The trestle is
located upon the unfinished portion OF
the road now under construction,
which, of course, indicates very differ
ent state OF affairs.
