1.-THE three failures of the Northern
Pacific, commencing with Jay Cooke,
have marked three financial crises, OF
panics in America, and I think that the
placing Of the company op q sound

take part in the reorganization"
Not Prepared to Say.
Il am not prepared to say what the
Great Northern will do further than te
say that you may depend upon the

will be most glad to cooperate with the
bondholders of the Northern Pacific tx

stated and thus put that company On {

The Arctic Ocean.

Lieutenant Colonel Sabine has noticed
. striking resemblance in the topo-
graphical CONFORMATION Of the northern
coasts Of America and Asia, the simil-
itude, beginning at Boring strait,
whence a similar coast line is preserved,
each having also an attendant group Of
islands, between which there is much
similarity. These are the Parry islands
pertaining to the first mentioned CONT
nent and the New Liberian group be-
longing to the latter. Even as to lati-
tude these islands preserve a resem-
blance.
But what Of the great interior of this
polar ocean? This is all unknown. An
opinion may be deduced from q careful
inspection of a chart of the earth that
this ocean has islands, and the fact that
fowl are seen to penetrate toward the
interior in great numbers is explainable
Of the hypothesis that they there find
subsistence to invite them. On the other
hand, they may fly directly across the
polar area to similar parallels ON the op'
posite side, and the fact that with the
coming Of the polar winter they conn
from the polar district is evidence tina,
the subsistence, il there be any, is moi
SO abundant as to tempt them to remain.
Again, only the nocturnal tribes would
or could endure the long polar night
and even il there were polar island'
bearing abundant subsistence common
instinct and experience might impel al
the day fowls to leave.-Pittsburg Dis
