NJ. MoGRAFT, first officer of the
dredging machine now at work at
the mouth of the Murderkill river,
was in Milford on the Fourth. He
says they have done more work in
one week than they did in four weeks
at the mouth of our own river, the
Mispillion, where they made such a
miserable failure of their attempt to
give us a new and better channel
across the flats. It is now the inten-
ton TO drive piling at the Mispillion'
mouth and then dig ont A. vain Daf4qggb

to the. Mispillion river, which is the
most important stream in the State
with single exception,-the Chris
tiana. There is but one way to pos
itively get a new and permanent
mouth to the MIspilliOn, and that is
to jetty it. Those in authority say
this will cost too much money and
Congress will not appropriate the
vast amount necessary to do the
work.
We say they are mistaken.
Congress will do anything the
right representatives demand. We
say demands, not requests
If those interested in new mouth
to our river, demand Of our repre-
seatatiUeS the necessary money, they
will get it. If they are so weak as
to be put offby the politicians whom
they send to Congress then they are
weak indeed and deserve to be hand
icapped and troubled by the inoOn-
Ueniences they are heir to.
We know that either or both par
ties in Congress at this time are
sorely exercised as to the political

Houses Of Congress can get "GI" we

ARCTIC EXPEDITIONS.
From the First American Expedition to
the Greedy Expedition of 1881.

From the First American Expedition to
the Greedy Expedition of 1881.
The first American expedition to the
Arctic regions was made in 1850, when the
ships Advance and Rescue stated in search
of the lost explorer Sir John Franklin and
his party. In October of the following
year, after an absence of 10 months, they
returned, having discovered only supposed
traces of the object of their search and
leaving in entire uncertainty their actual
fate.
The second American expedition, having
for its object the same humane purpose,
was due in a great measure to DR.. Kane
and was made under the Geographical So
ciety of New York, the American Philo-
sophical society and other scientific associa-
tions. The ship Advance left New York
May 80, 1853, on her second expedition, and
two winters were spent in the arctic re-
gions by this party, who reached latitude
so degrees 56 minutes north, but their ef-
forts were entirely fruitless so far as ascer-
tanning any information regarding the fate
of Franklin.
In 1885 the vincennes, Commander John
Rodgers, reached latitude 20 degrees 5 min
utes north. In 1860 the George Henry,
Commander Charles +. Hall, reached Fro
bisher bay, latitude 62 degrees north, and
in the same year party from the ship
United States, Commander !. l. Hayes,
reached by sledge latitude 81 degrees 35
minutes north. During ls64-9 the Month
cello, Commander Charles +. Hall, reached
King Williams Land, and In 1871 the Po-
laris, under the same commander, reached
latitude SO degrees l6 minutes north.
The next expedition of particular impor-
tance was that of the Jeanette, Com
mander Lieutenant de Long, 1S79-S1. This
unfortunate vessel was crushed June l3,
1881, in latitude n degrees IA minutes 81
seconds north. In 1850 the Corwin, Com
mander Captain G. l.. Hooper, who had
sailed for the relief of the Jeanette,
reached Wrangell Land, and in the same
year the Rodgers, Commander Lieutenant
r. NJ Berry, reached latitude rs degrees %
minutes north. The Greely expedition of
1881 reached SO degrees 241I minutes north.
and the island there found was named
Lockwood island. in honor of Lieutenant
Lockwood, who was in charge Of the ex-
ploring party.

THE SCIENTIST.

Petroleum, which is popularity supposed
to be derived from coal. is, according to ad-
vanced science, more probably the result of
the action of water on metal.
The results of calculations show that for
a given tank capacity and carbonic acid and
air stored at the same pressure, the lique-
fed carbonic acid Is capable of developing
four to five times more power than COM
pressed air.
Taking the earth as the center of the uni
verse and the polar star as the limit Of our
