man Arrived in New York
Chief Engineer Melville and Seaman VIM
.Noros and Wm. Ninderman, survivors ofthe
jeanette Arctic exploring expedition, and Of
the party that discovered the dead bodies of
Lieut.. De Long and his companions, and
Lieut.. Robert N. Berry of the burned Arc
tic exploring steamer Rodgers, arrived at
New York on Wednesday.
The steamship Parthia, bearing Melville
and party was met down the bay and as
Engineer Melville was discovered by those
on the tug they set upa shout of There's
Melville, God bless him." and party of the
Parthia'ss passengers, started the song Of
Home Again, and it was taken up all over
the ship Melville was soon on board the
United States tug and made haste to the pi-
lot house where the ladies Of the party were
seated. His sisters and neices were warmly
embraced by him and everybody in the pilot
house wept as Melville sobbed conyulsive]y
and held his sister to his breast. Melville
stepped out Of the pilot house and encount-
erei Capt. Wotten, the aged and grief strick-
en- father7in-law OF. the late Lieut.. De Long
Capt. Wotten grasped the engineers hands
and, after saying something in all under
tone, wept like child. Melville stcadied

McClave. In reply Melville said that he
was New York boy. one who had been
brought up in the public schools of this city.
He felt that he had right to say that lie
and his companions had done their duty.
He had been in the government service
twenty-t two years and had stood many kicks
and hard knocks 'And l would have
stood by my friends if they had stood by
me-"
Melville was introduced to reporters, and
when asked whether he desired to commu-
nicate with the public upon any point of
special interest, he said, ''No, not at this
time. The whole matter, the condition Of
the Jeanette, the trip and the results, is to
be investigated by naval court of inquiry,
and am not allowed to say anything until
examined by the court, then everything will
be made plain" Melville has the Jeanette
log and a private log, Lieut.. De Longs last
written Instructions to him, in fact, is pre-
pared at the proper time to repeat De Longs
last words to him. A file of f1uarines saluted
Melville as he landed on the dock, and es-
cortcd the Arctic voyagers to hotel.

Some time ago William J. Black married

him some time she discovered that he had
another wife living, and instituted bigamy
proceedings. He fled to Kansas, but num-

Fires have been more destructive in
the United States in the eight months Of
t he current year now passed than in the
anne months of last7year, or, indeed, Of
the past four years. The losses
were >ixty-one million dollars, be-
ing tive million in excess oflast years
record of eight months, and about seven
millions greater than the average for the
same period Of the years 1878 to 1881
inclusive. The steady increase in losses
by fire is shown in the returns made up
by newspapers devoted to insurance
interests. In august, 1873, six millions
was the aggregate; in August, 1882, it was
eight millions. In the first eight months
of the former year the total value Of
property destroyed was forty-six mill
ions; this year it was sixtv-one millions.

is displayed il all the shop windows. Flags
arc flying and great enthusiasm prevails.
Sir Garnet Wolseley is not favorte in army

Praise Of the Scotch and Irish soldiers is
heard in every mouth to-day. The charge
of the Irish OH the Egyptian left wing seems
to have been impetuOus and as irresst bic
as o. Briens at Fontenay, where the Irish
stood with bloody plumcs." A great deal
of surprise is expressed at the complete
mannersln winch the British wound up the
campaign wh1n the commanding general
was ready to strike. The Egyptian cam
paign has been like a powerful armored
knight in full panoply against a weak, de-
fenseless man, and over this victory the
English nation is to-day mad with JOY.

this Egyptian business will begin. 1t has
already been noticed that no one but the sui

asked that the country be spared the hunil-
iation Of a further advance of the British,
said he would occupy Cairo tonight, and

been done.

attack on Telel Kebir says:
It is impossible to conceive of all opera
ton more successful and executed in more
mastery manner. The whole plan of the
campaign was settled by Gen. Wolscley
with the concurrence of his su periors and
hearty acquiesence of his advisers before he
left England. There never was amp question
about the canal being the basis of ofoperations.
Before he left England he put his finger up
on Te]el Kebir, saying there Arab Pasha
would stand and there we should attack him
on Sept. Is. Wemention the circumstances
to show that great deal which to all out
side observer seems 5ehance is really fore
seen, planned or allowed for. Gen. VOL
seley has achieved success which renders all
apology for bis methods snpertious.
Gen. Wolseley has arrived at Cairo, whence
he sent the following:

There's not plan; that weeps A. night.

Nor star tsat looks from its angel home,
Nor breeze that sighs beneath the neon;
Nor bow that spans the dark storm cloud,
Nor thunder muttering, long and loud;
But warns US here on this green sod,
Beyond the ale. there is a God.
here Is not feif Dy zephyrs stir'd.
lh't greets the breeze from op ming bud;
Ihere Is not Q sprig that stems th storm.
IN mere rage. or in milder form;
lhere Is OF a leaflet in the glade,
That's hourly by the brrezes swayed
But warns Us by their graceful nod;
There relcns abpye % living God.
The rainbow in the suniit cloud.
The forest clothed in natu-es shroud,
The tiowrets sudd ng forth il spring
The bumnin- siri with tiny wing.
The graceful fawn hat skits the hill,
The quiet brook, the murmuring rid,
WI prove'to US as oHwe Elod ,
Thee reigns supreme liyiag ,iod.
There's not in all this worl ot O RS

Fen insects chlfp that greets the ear.
But warns uf that our q d is nelr.
