Another sheaf of brave lives thrown
into the insatiate NAV of the polar mon
ster! Another spectacular tragedy enacted
before the curious world in those icy halls
of death Is it not time that the sacrifice
and exhibition cease? At least, if Govern
ment may not interfere TO prevent this
form of suicide is it not time that it ceases
to be an alder and abettor? The spot where
the brave Captain Hall, in 1871, laid him
down and died is called Thank God
| Harbor' Now that a remnant of the
| Greedy expedition is rescued, and the relief
party itself is happily safe at home, has not
the time come for Arctic exploration itself
to find its Thank God Harbor, and he con-
tent to rest there hencefOrth and forever?
| The curtain has rolled up once more,
] and what is our latest Arctic Discovery
! A hut twenty-five by seventeen feet,
rooted with a whaleboat and sails.
! banked with snow to the caves, and
| barely high enough to allow the men to
sit up in their sleeping bags, an icy gale
cutting like the very scythe of death about
them. At little distance q wild figure
with blackened face feebly holding flag
staff for two minutes and then dropping it
| from weakness. and tottering forward to
meet the relief party. Before the door
and within the hut, six poor fellows with
hollow checks and cleaning eyes and
faces black with dirt, in the last gasp
of starvation by cold and innutrition, and
| unable longer even to boil the nauseOuS
stew of scalskin boots and coats on which
they have been prolonging the agonies of
inanition. On a ridge behind the hut ten
slight mounds of gravel, under each ol
which lies stark and frozen body. Here
seventeen men have spent long winter of
despair, from the first of November, when
! the daylight departed, till the first of
! March. when the sun reappeared. But it
| brought no life and little of hope One had
| died of scuryy. On the 4th of April Starva-
| ton had begun its work of death, and its
| last victim was gathered on the 10Th Of
| June. only three days before the relief
came. Forty-oight hours would have left
nothing to tell the tale, but the chastity
morSue into which the wretchcd hut had
| been transformed.
| And these were no common trash of
| humanity. Some of them were men of
| scientific attainments, of literary and social
| culture, of true chivalTic mold alike in
their courage and gcntlcncss. They had
| beguiled the tedious weeks and months,
| and had sought to divert each Others minds
during that awful winter under the polar
night and the shadow OF death, by lectures
and discussions of historical, scientific, and
other literary topics, by storytelling and
narratives OF perSonal.cXperience, by cec-
| brations of one another's BIRTHDAYS, by i'm

was published last year and well deserves

humorous poem entitled The Twenty

on the anniversary of the accident which
deprived him of his arm he invariably goes
hunting, and, nothing daunted, sounds the
horn in honor of St. Hubcrtus. If on that

have worked Independently of each other,
but constant correspondence and inter
change of views has been maintained, and
no change will be incorporated IN the re-
vision which has not met the approval OF
both committees. 1t is understood that the
changes in the Old Testament text will be
less marked than in the revised edition of
the New-mainly for the reason that the
original text of the former remains sub
stantially the same as that used by King
James translatorS. With the New Tesla
ment the case was different. The purpose
of the revisers of the Old Testament has
been not SO much to ascertain the correct
text as TO find out the true meaning OF the
old text, the origin of which is lost in an
tiquity. In this work we quote the
Philadelphia Record-' they have been
assisted by the great advance made in the
knowledge of the Hebrew language
since King James time In many
instances the old translatOrs wholly
mistook the meaning Of words, and they
were ignorant of much of Hebrew grammar
that is now the common property OF schol-
ars. Thus the children of Israel did not
as stated in Exodus Xi., 3, by Divine direc-
ton borrow Of the Egyptians what they
never intended to return, but they asked
for and received gifts. In other cases the
lenses of verbs are confused and the Sc
quence of thought contained i'll the text is
lost in the translation" Much light has
also been shed on the meaning of words by
the study of Arabic and other Semitic
languages, which, since the excavations at
Nineyeh, has made great progress. Some
improvements in our translation may be
expected also" says President Chase, of
Harvard, one of the rcyisers of the New
Testament, from the greatly increased
knowledge in recent times of the ways and
customs of Oriental people, and of the geog-
raphy, flora and fauna of the Bible lands.
The NEUROLOGICAL satyrs should be verita-
bic goats and that fabulous beast the
unicorn, should no longer exalt his horn
in the Bible though he may continue to do
so on the royal arms of England, but will
doubtless give place to the wild ox-the
same wild OK, or ur1tS, which Cesar dc
scribes in Germany, and which has been
preserved with great care even to our time
on a nobleman's estate in Great Britain. "

FACTS ABOUT SPooLs.-Spools are made in
immense numbers. One factory turns ont
100000 gross day, and consumes $500
cords of birch wood annually. The wood
is first sawed into sticks four or five feet
long and from scven-eighths of an inch to
three inches square, according to the size OF
the spool to be produced. These sticks
after being thoroughly seasoned are sawed
into short blocks, and the blocks are dried
in hot-air kiln 4. the time they are
sawed hole Is bored through them. The
SPOOL machine is managed by boy who
throws out The knotty or detective pieces
The SpoOls polish themselves by their con-
tact in revolving drums. Some OF the
spools are dyed yellow, red or black others
are ready for use when they leave the
drums The number Of yards of cotton on
a spool is determined by the size of the
spool. The cotton is never measured; but
the spool is gagged to contain 100 200 or
800 yards, rs the case may be. Silk and
linen firms always send to the spool-makers
patterns giving the size and shape of the
barrel and of the head and bevel, which de

the spool will hold-[W and Iron.
