During nine months the party had to live
upon scant allowance of ioOd brought from
Fort Congcr, that was cached at Payer Harbor
and Cape Isabella by Sir George Mares in 1870
but which was found much damaged by the
lapse of time, that cached by Beebe at Cape
Sabine in 1882 and a small amount saved from
the wreck of the Proteus in 1883, aud landed by
L. P. Darlington and Colwell on the beach near
where the Greedy party was found. When these
provisions were consumed the party was forced
TO live upon boiled sealskin, striped from the
sealskin clothing, and lichen and snrimps pro-
cured in good weather. when they were strong
enough to make eXertions. As it took 100
shrimps to fill gallon measure, the labor was
too exhaustive TO depend upon them TO sustain
life entirely. The channel between Cape Sabine
and Littleton Island did not close, on account
of violent gales, all winter, SO tt at 30 rations
at the latter place could not be reached.

A SOCIETY at Wilmington, n. G., organized
for the purpose of securing funds to establish
a home for confederate veterans, very
worthy charity in its way, would not tolerate
the flag Of the Union at a recent festival held
to raise money. The country will have to
wait little longer before perfect unity is re-
stored. When the men who fought for State

are dead, as confessed at the big confederate
reunion last week, We may hope for better

in the charges that are brought against the
management Of the Dayton Soldiers Home. J,

Old soldiers are hardly greater grumblers
than old men who have not been soldiers.
There undoubtedly is a good deal of truth in
the charges brought against the management
Of the Dayton Soldiers Home That noble
institution, established as an asylum for dis

Democratic partisan ends, to the evident dis

able, to say the least, that such sentiment,

Democratic party, should be 50 palpably ac-
knowledged in the party,s platform. II re-
quires no wide stretch Of imagination to

in a national election bold attempt would
be made to raid the treasury. There are, lit
orally, tens of thousands of enthusiastic Dem

soldiers were as patriotic as were those that
served the Union, and equally deserving Of
