The victories achieved by Fox
hall and Iroquois in England has
drawn the attention of foreign
breeders to our thoroughbreds, and
has suggested the advisability of
crossing their strains with ours, o
~ to secure a return to thos Q
stnnch powers of endurance that in
the English horses appear to have
been generally sacrificed TO speed.
The wonderful exploits of such two
year-old trotters as Fred Crocker,
Sweetheart and Wildfiower will be
. subject of comment for some time
to come, as they tend to show a
higher plane Of breeding than has
hitherto been deemed possible. and
also that our youngsters can
be trained to advantage at
q much earlierS2age than was
deemed prudent few years since.
The business tact, the liberal en-
terprise and the judgment shown

are they benefited by the enorm-

to the raising of trotting and
thoroughbred stock. To many

The Jeannstte.

Attic last meeting of the San
Francisco Academy Of Sciences
Mr.. Brooks, a gentleman who has
given much close attention to the
Jeanette expedition, read the tel
egram that vessel, supposed to be
the Jeanette, had been seen on
the 18th of September, 1879, at the
mouth of the Lena, and that two
corpses and half barrel of whisky
had been found near the mouth of
the tennessee. The news from the
whaling fleet, said Mr.. Brooks, was
that the Jeanette WAS on the 4th
of Septem Der, 1879, in latitude 70
deg. 81 min. north, longitude ia
deg. west, which IL Oh the north
east coast.of Wrangle Land. The
point where she is now supposed
to have been seen is 584 degrees
west. 1t took Nordenskjold
u year and more to make that
point, and therefore It is the
height of improbability that the
Jeanette could have done it in
eight days. Mr.. Brooks explained
that Baron Ludwig Knopps, of
Bremen, had lately been sending
steamers to the river tennessee to
trade with the Siberians, and it was
one Of these steamers that had
been seen. They were often frozen
in and returned to Weinefest, the
most northern port Of Denmark,
and so to Bremen, the year after.
Ar regards the two white corpses
and the half-barrel of whisky, Mr..
Brooks positively asserted that
they were not relics of the jean
nette. He assured his hearers that
Captain De Long did not have
among his stores any half-barrel of
whisky; indeed, he had the very
smallest quantity of that liquid on
board. It was almost death to use
whisky in the ARCTIC, and Captain
De Long would not have it.
