among experts at San Francisco that in
purchasing the Mary and Helen for the
Jeanette search the government has
been badly taken in. She IS fit enough
for a wbaler in ordinary waters, but
entirely wanting in Ice-resisting quail

cost two prices. The purpose of the
expedition is humane, but the prospect
of lis success IS very SLIGHT.
