Notes from the Arctic

SAN Francisco, November S.-The

Rambrights. II appears that the Dawn did
not speak the Rodgers in the Arctic, as re :
ported Saturday, but did speak the whaler
Pacific, which had communicated
with the Rodgers. To-day direct news
was received from the Rodgers, the Belyi-
dere having spoken her September 9th,
near Herald island, steering south for win
ter quarters, which she will make probably
at st. Lawrence Bay. The Belvidere
brought letters from the Rodgers, from
ton between Captain Owen, of the
Belvldere, and Lieutenant Berry, of
the Rodgers, the following facts: Berry
found land which proved to be on island,
He sent party from the Rodgers out in
small boat to explore the land. They re-
turned to the Rodgers, having gone COM
pletely around it. The party also surveyed
different parts of Wrangle island The
Rodgers, after having established Wrangle
land to be an island, steamed one hundred
and twenty odd miles north
ana northeast, in search of
other land, but failed to find
any Berry assembled a mountain on
Wrangle Island and from the top saw the
sea all around it. The season had been
most favorable for exploring on account of
its openness, Notwithstanding the stormy
weather. Captain Owen said that from
his observation be would not be at
all surprised to hear of the Jeanette
coming home by way of Greenland. The
Rodgers intends to send out sledge parties
from the winter quarters to explore the
coast of Siberia. She expects to leave her

no more cherish a persistent revenge
against them, particularly after defeat and
penitence and forgiveness, than we can
against the erring and penitential
members Of our own immedi-
ate household Besides, how magnificent
is the destiny of this southern people !
How nobly they have risen since the over
throw of the mistake of the rebellionl See
how industrious and enterprising and pros
porous they have become study their
growth in arts, in science in literature, and
in manufactures. Ponder upon the millions
and hundreds of millions that they are
adding TO the wealth of the whole country.
Surely, fellow-citizens OF New York, this
is no spectacle to arouse anger and envy.
Rather let us take pride in the mission that
helps an effort so full of benevolence and so
full of patriotism. Shall be told that these
people of thesouth are to be again punished
because they are members of the demo-
cratic party, or because they continue to
vote the democratic ticket ?"

A NORTHERN MAN SPEAKS FOR THE
SOUTH

The addresses of Hon. John w. Forney
and Hon. Sam J.. Randall, delivered before
the New York democracy at the Cooper In
stitute, were highly creditable to both those
old war horses. Shot after shot, in quick
succession, they sped into the ranks of the
republican party, that they, and especially
Colonel Forney, characterized in language
firm and strong as a party that
ought long since to have done
so, but has not to this hour
folded away the bloody shirt and sectional
animosity, He asserted that that party
has been completely dwarfed, notwithstand-
ing its loud pretensions to patriotism and
its myriad of placemen, He insisted that
the country was to-day democratic at heart
and in sentiment, that i,i35,0l5 democratic
votes for Hancock and English one year
ago to-day, with Garfleld's majority only
1880, clearly proved it. He contended
that if the people could have
done what they sincerely wished
to do, that il the brides, the party lash, the
power, the patronage, the cash, the oppor-
tunities of the party In place for years,
could have been removed, the democratic
majority would have been enormous. That
If, armed with all these things, dragooning
their subordinates by an organization more
cruel and rcmorseless than the car oil
Juggernaut, they had been enabled to roll
up only that little majority, how powerles,
would they have been had merit been
left to win. He administered u
whitening rebuke to those northern people
animated by persistent hate and revenge,
and paid fitting compliment to those who
were seeking to heal the wounds. Conclu'
ding he eloquently and graphically said
"Thoro is hardly northern family that ha,
not some doathless memory or some living
member intimately and closely associated
with the southern people They are our
own blood, relatedto US by history, by con-

SINCE the defalcation expose in the Me-
chanic's National Bank, at Newark the
treasury department has been looking into
some of the work already reported by bank
examiners, and it has been found that the
system of bank examination as at present
conducted does not disclose the actual con-
diton of bank. A prominent treasury
official, who has had much to do with the
study of frauds, says that new element
has been recently introduced into the sys-
TEN of frauds committed by banks and
kindred corporations that was not at pres
cnt known to the public, 1t has been
hitherto supposed that registered bond
was of no use to anyone except the payee of
the bond; but 1t appears that nearly all Of
the stolen registered bonds can be used by
the thieves in way to give them very
comfortable income, When registered
bond is stolen, the owner of il files caveat
at the loan division of the treasury de-
partment, and then, after the proof OF
his loss, n new bond is issued to him. Ca
yeats to the amount of S25il, 600 are at
present filed at the loan division, represent.
ing the amount of outstanding stolen
registered bonds. II has been discovered
that the talented thieves who have
found new channel for the use Of
these bonds deal with dishonest officials
employed by large corporations, Where
the defaulter makes use of the legitimate

light vote is being polled in the districts
heard from, and balloting is so mixed that
the. usual balloting predictions
are not ventured upon. The independent
candidacy of Mr.. Wolfe for the office of
state treasurer is attracting much attention
in the fifteenth, twenty.second, twenty
fourth and twenty-ninth wards, but in the
greater part of the city considerable apathy
is shown in that particular. The warmth
of the struggle here centers in the
offices of city commissioner, and
trading of candidates is actively carried on
In the republican wards many democratic
votes are secured to the republican candi-
date for state treasurer in exchange for
votes for Haggerty and Mcnamara, demo-
cratic candidates for city commissioners,
but there are strong hopes for the success of
Carson and Krumbhaar, il dependent candi-
dates for the last named offices. Representa-
tives of the commission of one hundred are
supplied with both republican and demo-
cratic tickets for state treasurer and re-
corder ofdeeds, but the names OF Carson and
krumbhaar are appended to each.

THE National Tariff Convention is called
for the 18th inst. and will meet III Farwell
Hall, Chicago. Among -other things, it
will consider, first, a demand upon congress
for remedial legislation, by which the treas

development and welfare of many of
our home industries shall be radically
and completely rectifed second, the meas
ures suitable to restore our national flag on
the ocean, to prosper our ship-building in
dustry, and to regain our lost place in the
carrying trade, whether by discriminating
duties on foreign tonnage and on imports,
as in the early days of the Union, or by
liberal compensation for ocean mail service,
or by other instrumentalities third, the

NOTWITHSTANDING the many branches of

the tone of the American press during the
present land complications in England it
seems that the friendliest of relations be-
tween that country and ours continue to
exist. Night before last an entertainment. was
given by the British residents of Philadel-
phia to the new minister Mr.. West, at
which Mr.. Blaine was present, and both he
and Mr.. West spoke in most hearty terms
of the present attitude of the two people
and in evident sincerity wished for con-
tinuance of the same. This is as il should
be, for England and America are.th promi-
nent opponents of the advanced civilization
ofour times and upon the Epglish-sp,ak-
ing people must rest in a great measure
the hopes for the, future. AS Mr.. Blaine
said, there were6O, 600 900 of such people on

and concert of action lies their strength.

TIE Chicago Times referring to the care
lessness of bank examiners, mentions
among instances the case in the New York
Metropolitan bank, which only a very few
weeks ago found among its supposed securi-
ties $4,000 of stolen registered bonds. They
had been placed there by u middleman Of
the gang ofthieves, and the middleman had
received the interest from the subordinate
official of the bank. Both Of these men
have been convicted and sentenced. There
Is recent case in Pennsylvania, where one
OF the Numerous swindling insurance com
panes of that state had for its sole capital a
collection of stolen registered bonds. All
that this mock insurance company had to
do in return for being allowed to carry
$4,000 of supposed capital was to pay the
interest. The rogues thus, without any risk
to themselves in negotiating such danger
Gus articles, had secure income. In the
several cases where stolen bonds have al
ready been found among the securities of
public institutions, it has been only from
the grossest carelessness of bank examiners
and bank officials that such substitution
could have been possible. The slightest
examination of the bonds or at least the
simplest inquiry at the treasury depart
ment, would have been enough 70 disclose
their true character. Rigid orders will soon
be issued for a re-examination of the secur-
tiles of banks subject to examination by
federal authority. 1t is expected that some
of the most solid institutions of the country
will find among their reserves some of the
$2,OO0,0O0 of bonds that are at present sup
plying the reserve fund for the operation,of
the thieves who have struck such profita-
BILE vein. 1t is also thought that this de-
scription of frauds may have extended to
other securities, such as state bonds, rail
road bonds, and the like Indeed, il is the
present plan among all the large thieving
operators, when they secure Unacceptable
paper, to employ it simply as a security for
