Return OF Lieut.. HAY from Point
Harrow - His work UncOm-
pieted.
SAN Francisco, Oct. S.-Lieut. Ray,
who returned here yesterday ON the
schooner Leo, gave the Associated Press
representative the following details of
his soourn north: He left this port in
Jnly, 1881, under instructions of the
Signal Service Bureau to establish per
manent signal station at Point Barrow
and remain there till the summer Of
1884, unless otherwise ordered. The
order for him and his whole party to
return created great surprise, as the
work was being successfully carried out,
having accomplished all that portion re.
specting international work correspond.
| ing with that of similar stations estab
lshed by Russia, Sweden. Denmark and
Austria. The details of his work will
be made the subject OF an official report.
Apart, said Ray, from the scientific i'm.
p6rtance of the station. it is a necessity
as a refuge for the crews OF whaling yes
sells. Every year in the Arctic on aver
age Of forty vessels, worth. with cargo,
81, 900, 900, and 1000 men, are engaged.
Out OF eighty-seven vessels fifty have
been lost within 100 miles OF Point
Barrow. In one year, 1877, twelve
were lost with all on board. The
crews would not abandon the vessels,
knowing there was nothing on shore for
them to live on. Had a station existed
probably all would have been saved.
Since the station was established, two
years ago, over fifty lives have been
saved. Ray says all the party lived
comfortably and in good health. The
climate was particularly beneficial to
those suffering from malariu. Besides
the regular provisions they had seal,
walrus and white whale, The last was
the best meat, being sweeter and more
nutritious. The buildings erected were
left to the Indians He expressed ro-
gret at his recall Information from
other sources attributes his recall to n
freak of Secretary Lincoln, who objects
to people living in the Arctic, and wants
a discontinuance of Arctic explorations.
Owing to the loss of life they have en-
tailed, Lieut.. Rays statement goes to
show that station at Point Barrow
would be means of saving many lives,

NEW YORK, Oct. s.-The Supreme
Court, which meets at Washington to-
morrow, will decide whether thepower of
the State TO tax corporations within its
limits is controlled by the l4th amend

says; California made a distinction in
its tax laws between railroad property
and the property of individuals. The
companies claim that discrimination
against them was prohibited by that
clause of the fourteenth amendment
which declared that no State shall deny
to any person within its jurisdiction the
equal protection Of the laws. This issue
raised two important questions. First
whether q corporation is "a person"
within the meaning Of theamendment, and
secondly, whether the amendment was

Changing the Scarlet for the Gray.
TFro,n In, 81 .Eamex fIonSo,,1 Eo-stts I

The proposal to introduce new fighting
dress into the English army appears rather
startling, and there are probably not fifty men
in these isles who will not at first revolt from
the thought that the so-ealled British scarlet
will no longer be seen on any field of battle,
and that the thin red line viii become mere
tradition. There are many solid objections to
the measure. An army clings with almost
superstitious devotion TO its traditional dress;
and in more than one service the abolition of
the pig-tail almost caused mutiny. II we
could suddenly strip the army and navy to-
morrow, and make them exchange uniforms.
the men of both services would slink about four
weeks or months to come with little less acute
ness of shame than q young lady would feel if

Weeping, sad and lonely,
Hopes and fears, how vain;
Yet praying, when this cruel war Is over
Praying: that we meet againi
When the summer breeze is signing.
Mournfully alongi
Or when autumn leaves are falling,
Sadly breathes the song.
Oft, in dreams, see thee lying
On the battle plain,
Lonely, wounded, even dying,
Calling, but in vain.
If, amid the din OF battle,
Nobly you should fall,
Far away from those who love you,
None to- hear you call;
Who would whisper words of comfort,
Who would soothe your pain?
Ah the many cruel faneieS,
Ever in my brain.
But our country called you, darling,
Angels cheer your way;
While our Nations sons are fighting,
We can only pray.
Nobly strike for God and liberty,

How we love our starry banner,

Except Billy?" ventured Margaret, as the
child's sunny head appeared at window.
Billy! Well" Miss Grey paused. That
little half-b brother was dearer to her even than
she knew, but he was perplexing also. Some
thing that looked out from his dark eyes and
spoke in his wistful tones was more difficult
than anything else to fit into her hard homey
life; it did not seem to belong there. But she
would not say so; she was beginning already
TO wonder at what she had said. With a quick
breath that would have been sigh on less
determined lips, she bent over her work again.
Upon those stopped and rounded shoulders
lifes burdens had fallen early. She had paid
the penalty of being considered smart" and
capable by having whatever the others of
the family were too busy, too indolent or too
selfish to do always left for Susan" When
her discouraged mother slipped away out of the
world, she found herselfalone TO plan for and sup
ply what her careless, improyident father never
provided-to supplement his love of ease with
her self-denial, and economic while he wasted
After hard years he had crowned his extrava-
ganees by bringing home fragile young wife
whom he could not support, and, that feat ac-
complished, had comfortably died and left her
TO Susan's care, as she, little later, left Billy
Itncver occurred TO Susan to shirk the burdens
that Others dropped. She had taken them up
resolutely one by one, and gone on her way,
never having had time for a life of her own
| So it happened naturally that having ac-
cepted Margarets stay as one of her allot-
ments," She gave faithfully the best care in her
power.
"A kindness that can never be itemized in
the BILL nor repaid in any way said Margaret,
regretfully. You have SO much to do, it
seems strange that / should have been thrown
