who Will Command tho Greedy Kc-
lief Expcdition-HIisR Record iu
Our Navy.

We this week present our readers with
the likeness Of Commander W. s. Schley,
oil the United States Navy, who will have
charge Of the expedition that will soon
sail for the Arctic regions in search Of the
Greely party. From the sad fate of long
list of Arctic explorers and relief parties
who have gone TO the frozen regions Of the
north never to retura, it will be readily
conceived Tint he who volunteers his ser
vices to penetrate that iceberg cemetery of
heroic explorers in search of lost humanity
or their remains, 10 man OF that patriotic
bravery which commands the admiration
of the whole civilized world. Upon the
tablet which bears the names OF score of
valiant Arctic heroes will row be placed
that of Winfield S. Sehley, and time will
invest 1t with either the brilliancy of a
successful humane accomplishment, or the
sad halo of another sacrifice of human
life for fellow humanity.
Winfield S. Schley was born in Mary.
land in 1889, and is now in his 45,h year
of age. He was appointed to the Naval
Academy in 1856, and graduated in 1860.
At the opening of the Civil War in 1861,
he wis attached to the frigate Potomac as
Master, and stationed at Ship Island. In
| 1862 he was ira nsferr,d TO the steam gun
boat Winona of the West Gnlf blockading
