HOW A MEMBER OF THE RODGERS CREW WAS
SWEPT OUT INTO THE ICE.

! SWEPT OU1 INFO HE ICE.
WASHINGTON, August pa commune
cation has been received from Commander
Il. VI. Berry, commanding the burned
search steamer Rodgers, dated Nishue Ko-
| lymsk, Siberia, April 4, 1882, in which he
reports the probable sad loss Of Master c.
| +. Putnam, whom he considered an excel
| lent officer and courteous gentleman. He
had gone down TO st. Lawrence bay with
provisions and clothing for the officers and
crew, and having performed this duty was
returning TO Eclectlan, near Serage Ka-
men, when the party was Overtaken bv one
OF the driving snOw-stOrms common in
those regions. After remaining out all
night they found 1t impossible to proceed.
and started to return to the village OF Nu-
tassimOnl. on the south side Of St. Lawrence
bay, but Mr.. Putnam's sledge became sepa-
rated from the others, containing Passed
Assistant-Engineer Zane, Ensign Ii. 4.
Hunt, DR.. j. d. Castillo. and three natives.
who reached the village in safety. Mr..
Putnam passed close 10 the village, and ran
out upon the ice in the bay. The sIedge
was struck by the wind and swept out INTO
the straits, carrying him with il. Two DAYS
later, January 18th, he was seen from shore
10 the southwark Of and near the mouth Of
the bay without his sledge, but surrounded
by his dogs. An attempt was made TO
reach him by the natives i'm a canoe. but
after launching 1t they could not force il
through the young ice which Law between
him and the shore. nor could they pass over
1t. A westerly wind afterwards drove the
ice still farther from shore, and he had not
been since heard from up to January
10Th. Lieutenant Berry was at Eeleetlan
at the time OF the occurrence. but
Messrs. Hunt and Zane, upon their ar
rival, reported that diligent search was
being made along the coast, and that Mr..
Waring had gone to the southwark to look
for him. Lieutenant Berry left EeleetIan
February Sth in company with ENSIGN
Hunt and native guide, poorly provided |
with dogs, and with but one sledge for the |
two and few provisions. At the village
near Cape Wankarem he learned from the |
natives that some Of them had visited
ship which came down with the ice in Au.
gust or September, 1880, and took some
articles from her; also that the Thomas |
Corwin had visited that place In the sum-
mer OF 1881 and taken some OF the articles
away. They described the wrecked vessel
rs dismasted, broken, and filed with ice.
having dead bodies on board, and with
deer horns on the flying jib-boom. At the
village OF Dtrouk, about twenty miles east
u Jakan, second vessel was visited by
lie natives about the same time, and arti-
lies were brought from her on shore,

LARAMIE CRY, W.T.. Aug. 10, 1882.
My DEAR GENERAL:-I have re-
ceived news by telegraph of my nomi
nation and confirmation as postmaster
at Laramie, and wish to extend nv
thanks for the same. | have ordered
an entirely new set of boxes and
p~Ostofice outfit, including new cor
rugated cuspidOres for use Of clerks. I
look upon the appoint of myself as a
triumph of eternal truth over error and
wrong, it is one of the epochs. as |
may say in the nations onward march
toward political purity or perfection.
| don't know wben | have noticed any
stride In the affairs of state which SO
Thoroughly impressed me with its wis.
dom. Now that we are co.workers in
the same department, [ trust that you
will not feel shy or backward in con.
sulting me at any time relative to
matters concerning Postofice Depart
ment affairs. Be perfectly frank with
me, and feel perfectly free Just to bring
anything Of that kind right to me.
Do not feel reluctant because | may
appear at times cold and reserved.
Perhaps you think ! do not know the
difference between a general delivery
window and a three EN- quad, but that
Is q mistake. My general Information
is far beyond those Of my years. With
profoundest regards, l remain sin.

Casey Young.

The Washington Post, Of the Oath
makes the following graceful recogni-
ton of COLONEL Young's talent and
services in Congress:
Advices from the Tenth Tennessee
district show the probability that the
Hon. Casey Young, who so ably rep
resented that district In the Forty
fifth and FOrty.sixth Congresses, will
be returned to the Forty eighth instead
of the present incumbent, whose cleo
ton was an accident and whose service
was unquestiopablY Q blank. Colonel
Young Is Democrat Of ability and
standing, and deservedly popular in
his district, for which he did SO much
during his membership in Congress.
His popularity is not confined to his
own party, for the Republicans Of Inc
district prefer a Democrat ike Young.
who succeeds in securing large appro-
p7iaFiops for the district, To a Republi.
can like Moore, who lends all his en-.
ergies to getting a postofice for his
brother,in law. The Post is not in the
habit Of interfering in the local aGairs
OF distant States, but docs not hesitate
70 express ila belief that Casey Young
vail be Of greater use to the Democra-
cy of his district than any other man
they can possibly select. The next
House will in all probably, be Demo
cratic, and Colonel Youngs experience
in legislation and high standing among
those who have served with him, will
put him, If member, at the head Of
one Of the important committees where
he can be Of vastly greater service,
than a new andipexperienced member.
