HOW DE Lone FAILED.
Capt. Nelbaum's Theory OF His
Death.

Senator Jones, who Is spend
ing few days in Carson, give
the following interesting accoun
of De Longs Arctic expedition
which he got from Captain
Nelbaum in San Francisco. Mel
baum IS Russian, who has beer
f)r many years in the service o.
! the Alaska Fur Company, and
was the last man from whom the
De Long party received provi-
sions. He says:
"Da Long left my station
almost at the most northern
point of Alaska and | furnished
him at the order Of the -Alask a
Fur Company with sledges, dogs
and provisions. He took twenty
seven dogs and one Indian. |
can only account for the loss of
the party on the theory that
they killed the dogs. l do not
believe that De Long knew any
thing about the undertaking he
was graphing with, and was ig-
nerant of the means by which a
trip could be made in that
region. | see by his diary that
there was bit one dog left
a few days prior to his death.
He must have killed the dogs
without knowing their tremen-
dous value, and when the dogs
are gone there is absolutely no
hope left. He may have wanted
to get the dogs out of the way
because they annoyed him with
their incessant barking at night.
The dogs could not have died or
been lost they were killed.
The scent of these animals is
remarkable, and they will de-
tect provisions no matter where
they may be. When men in
those regions kill Polar bears
and have more meat than they
need they cache the meat and it
sometimes lies hidden in the
icebergs for years until dis
covered by the dogs. The ice
bergs are full of these places.
If you meet an Indian in that
region and Kill his dog he lies
down and dies, considering that
the better part Of him is gone.
The Indian 1 gave De Long was
as brave a man as ever faced the
terrors of an Arctic sea. and
capable of great heroism. When
De Long was dying the Indian
took off his coat and laid it yer
his commander. | have no doubt
but that he kept his courage up
until the dog died and then re-
signed himself to his fate. An
other great oversight was the
neglect to take the right kind
Of guns. ! offered De Long a
fowling piece made expressly to
use in the Arctic seas and calcu-
lated to stand the climate. He
refused it, because he said he |
a gun that would
kill bears. | explained that he
needed guns for birds and not
bears, but he would not listen to |
me and took Remington rifles,
the weight Of which hampered
him, and We're of no use. He
must have seen the sea fowl |
flying over his head all the time |
aud yet could not Kill them.
The diary says that the Indian,
drawing the sledge all day. |
would 60 out at night and get
birds, and he kept the party |
alive for two weeks. Any
where you cut a hole through |
the ice and flash light down,
the fish will swarm, but they
had No fishing tackle. All
their chances were thrown away
through ignorance. l am not
saying a word against De Long,

A MALONE REPUBLICAN MEETING OF TWENTY
pAuTfcfpA

| MALONE REPUBLICAN MEETING OF TWENTY
PARTICIPANTS.
| Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
After long and animated bell-ringing
calling together those who had been mott.
fed for several days by posters and per.
sonaIiy solicited, about twenty-five or thir.
| ty men collected In our courthouse hall.
A. Brown, the chairman OF the Republican
executive committee for this county, and
A. NJ. Pierce, Mahoneite chairman, took
their seats upon the rostrum together. The
irrepressible Pierce called the meeting to
order, in doing which the wind escaped for
about twenty minutes, his object being. as
he stated, to kill time until more could
come. He endorsed the stalwart Republi.
can administration Of Arthur. Joseph b.
Benson was elected permanent chairman
and John X. Carson secretary. The "wind-
mill started again, blowing sugared chat
at his colored brothers, but they had heard
him before and wouldn't enthuse, so in dis
gust he left the hall.
John Dean (Republican), with Randolph
Martin (colored Republican, as his alter
nate, and c. w. Reed with John X. Jones
as his alternate. were selected to represent
this city in the Mahone-Republican Con-
gressional Convention for this district.
Not over twenty took part at any time in
the meeting; Of these, eight were coored,
five or six white Republicans in name and
fact, and six or seven Malone Republicans
in fact.
4 committee OF five, through James H..
Williams. their chairman, reported rcsolu-
lions endorsing Malone, John :. Wise,
and the present Republican Admmistra-
ton, which were fecbly adopted by 4
unanimous vote Of about five or six; in
fact, few and weak were the voices heard
when the vote was taken upon each and all
motions. 1t was as cold and liieleSs a meet
ing as was ever held in our city upon any
occasion, notwithstanding Pierce and
Williams both excited themselves and
beat the air wildly to arouse the faithlesS.
The "blow-bag" having exhausted its
supply OF wind " in putting the
meeting in working order, with eX-
hausted and weary steps sought the open
air for renewal, but it was not refilled
when the meeting adjourned, for it return
ed no more. The participants seemed To
feel that their days were numbered; and
so far as Frederick, Clarke, and Warren
are concerned, they are for our people. APP
preciating the issues involved in THIS con-
test, Rcadjusters and Funders are forget
ting past differences, and will not only give
the Democratic maioritieS Of 1850, but a
much larger one this fall.
Very respectfully, DEMOCRAT.

THE GREAT YL0rR-MII.L or HECKER BIC.
THEIRS IN AsBEs-oTHER BUILDINGS BURN
ED--Loss, s1,O00,000.
NEW York, July 31.-The great -four
mill OF Hecker Brothers, extending from
Cherry to Water street on Pike street, was
totally burned to-day, along with several
neigbborIng buildings, the principal one
OF which was the spice-mill OF Sanger,
Beers & Fisher, and a number OF tenements
on Cherry street. Hecker's loss Is between
four hundred and six hundred thousand
dollars; insurance, $500. 000-well distri-
buted. Sanger, Beers & Fishers loss II
stated to be 100000. The other loss will
bring the aggregate 10 nearly million dol
lars.
The fire originated in the ninth story OF
Hecker's mill, which was ten stories high,
and was caused by friction among the ma
chinery for cleaning. wheat. About five
hundred men were employed in the mill.
all Of whom escaped, although some OF
them were driven TO the fire-escapes on the
outside OF the building. One fireman had
a leg broken, and several were Frustrated
by heat. The heat was so intense that the
men couil not approach near enough to
attempt to save IIecker's. With forty en-
gines ut work, all they could do was to
prevent the spread OF the fire. Among the
MINOR losses was the Seaman's Exchange,
valued at $1,000.
