ESPECIAL TO THE sENTINEL.l

New York, April 21.-The Herald's
Irkutsk special says the following has
been received by post from Jackson.
Dated at Yakutsk, March Ell arrived
here to-day. There is no news from Mel
Vile. I leave for the north on the 29th.
Governor 7. C. Hernaieff renders every
assistance. 1t will be so days yet before
the ice breaks up here. The steamer Lena
will be useless. I shall secure a steam
launch for the month Of June to come
down the Lena River to Belum for news,
or for my return.
The following important dispatch from
Mr.. Jackson, sent to this place by courier
express from Yakutsk, has also reached
me to-day:
KARAGA TER1NsKY, on Lena River, April
81 arrived at this place, distant 1870
versts $50 miles, from Yakutsk, shortly
after noon, en- route for Belum. Here was
and now is the local Governor of Sredini,
or Middle Kolymsk, Mr.. Leodor DeVara-
ma, who has just left the Herald corre-
spondent, W. Fl. Glider, at yerkhoynsk,
having accompanied him thither from the
Kolym River. Glider sends the following
open dispatch
vERKHoYNsK, March 29.-Arrived here
Yesterday, and leave tonight for Brittun
to meet Melville. I will reach Yakutsk
toward the end Of April. Melville, with
I~spravnek, Governor Of this district, started
on the search Feb. II. There is no news
from them since.
Jackson's dispatch continues: As, I'M
fortunately, I can't see the dispatches Of
Glider, which are sent under seal to Carl
Thermaieff, l give you information re-
ceived from Ispravnek Of Serdni Kolymsk,
and have asked him to give orders to send
the dispatches by the express carrier to
Irkutsk. Ispraynek left Kolymsk "a days
ago with Glider, who had made q long
journey overland among the Chuckches,
and who arrived at Kolymsk in the latter
part of February. The journey to that
point in midwinter was a terrible one.
Ispravnek says that Glider brings informa-
ton that the steamer Rogers was burned
on the 1st of January Of this year, and
that Lieutenant Berry and the crew are at
Tupkan, where they get food enough from
the Chuckches. Ispravnek and Mr..
DenaraTa of Kolinsk has sent tobacco and
tea to them for bartering purposes. They
need nothing else. Three months pro-
visions were saved from the ship. Tupkan
is near Cape Serdni Kamen. Further de-
tails say that all endeavors to save the ship
were made in vain. She lay within a short
distance of the shore, but the young ice could
not bear the weight of the men, and a line
from the ship to the shore was fixed with
much difficulty. By this line the
boats crew were all safely landed. The en-
tire ships company are in good health and
spirits. There is no danger of their starv.
ing. Governor Tchernaieff has given Or
ders to the Chuchke chiefs to do all in
their power to assist the shipwrecked crew.
The latest news from V~erkhoynsk is that
they are anxious there about ~Tspavnek,
who went with Melville, and who they
think ought to have returned in February
old style. He has not yet returned.
Terrible hurricanes, with snow, have pre-
vailed of late in ~verkhoyansk District, and
they are afraid Thespravnek has persisted,
and eventually the whole party, as
Ispavnek had been ordered to accompany
Melville until such time as the latter
might choose to send him back. I believe
there is no reason for anxiety.
Interview with the Widow Of Jesse
James.
CHICAGO, April 21.-A special to the
Times from Kansas City gives an extended
interview with the widow Of Jesse James.
She tells Of their courtship, which lasted
five years, and which was opposed by her
parents, who lived neal Kansas City. and
who contrived to prevent an elopement.
This was in 1869, just after Jesse, who was
her cousin, had been declared an outlaw,
with a price on his head. He visited her,
and she him at his mothers, in Kearney.
Once they hid in the yard when Pinkerton
was after him. They were married at her
sisters, in Kearney, on April 1874. They
went to Sherman, Texas, making the hon
eymoon on the proceeds OF the Blue Cut
robbery. She says Jesse was not in the
Hot Springs robbery. That Of Gadshill
Melted him only 5000, and the reports
about the proceeds of his robberies have
been greatly exaggerated. They went
from Sherman to Dalles in September.
Mrs. James returned to Kansas City that
Winter, while Jesse took part in the Cor
inth, Miss. and the Mancie, Kansas, af-
fairs. They went to Edgefeld, Tenn, and
then to Baltimore. Jesse, she says, was
in the Huntington, West Virginia,
They went back to Nashville.
