Great Fulling Off in the "WhEat

enough df the wheat growing States
to show that the crop of this year
will in all probability, be less than 1

expected ffeta the Unusual severity

The following is a difect contra

“There hr a paragraph circulating

The Marvel Os The Polaris
The investigation in the Polaris
disaster, as set forth in the lengthy
published report of the Secretary
of the navy, accepts the previous
statement that the death of Captairi
Hall was from natural causes, and
that the seperation of the Polaris
from the ice-floe containing the res
cued poeple' was accidentia!. .This
investigation was made with the
assistance of several. prominent
scientific gentlemen, and the scien
tific resu.Cs of the expedition are
interesting, particularly the fact
that the open Polar sba, supposed
by Kane and Hayes, is only a sound
of considerable extent. The length
of time during which those sepefrit
ed from the Polars remained upon
the ice floe would seem iricrediable
but for the attestation given it by
the report. For five month and a
half nineteen men, women and chil
dren remained through the Whole
dark and dreary winter upoh the
ice! The drifting of the nineteen
persons all that time on the ice-floe
on such a voyage through the so a,
and the ultimate rescue without the
loss of life, or permantly of health,
is a marvel which if told in romance
would be condemned for the want
oi probability:
While generally‘'concurring in the
views taken by Secretary Robeson
and bis associates of the facts con
nected with the expedition and the
misfortiiries attending it, the Con
duct'of Captain Briddingtoii sfeems
to Call for the most emphatic cen
sure. This person succeeded to the
command of the Polaris, on the
death of Captain Hall, as had been
provided foT in the instructions for
tlie voyage issued by -the Secretary
of tlie navy. During Captain Hall’s
life he seems; from Captain Tysons
testimony, to have been a hindrance
to his commander and to the pur
poses of the expedition, rather than
an aid ; that he WaS addicted tb'
drink* and when uudef the influence
o’s liqvfor exhibited a decided want
of executive ability. His appetite*
for liquor seems to lfave been so
strong that he took .alcohol iron;
the doctor’s stores, and on one occa
sion had a sea tie with tin doctors
for it. It was a most unfortunate
selection, and the public Would like
id kown how such a man carnet
assigned td so responsible ft pod
tion.
Gen. Meach-vM and tiW Modocs.-*
Gen. Meacliam has been in ioWa

“Concerning she murder of.Can'hy
Thomas, Gen. Moaehr.irf v*as
before they went to the
Council they were going to their
massacre.- They had been warned
by ‘Toby,’ Biddle’s squaw, but no
one believed her except Meacham,
who had knowh her for years and
trusted her implicit}*. She is a pure
blooded Modoc, and her husband,
Riddle, is a white Kentuckian. It is
tdo late to regret that Canby and
Thomas had not the insight intS’lier
character which enabled Meacham
to trust her fidelity, for then t r he fatal
council would not have been lield.
But Canby trusted nobody but the
army, and the Rev. Dr. Thomas’
confided in nothing but Providence
wlfle Meacham relied upon the
squaw, and he was the only one who
eahie out to tell the tale. He was
slibt if the crown and forhead, in tlie
right arm 1 and left hand; and had

A DISASTROUS Fi RE PREVENTED
BY BA BCOCK EXTINGUISHER.

Jackson <fc Sharp Company,
Wilmington, Del., March 14,1873.
F. W. Farwell, Esq, Secy Babcock Fire
Extinguisher Cos. 407 Broadway, N. Y.
Dear Sir :— A few r days ago we had a
fire at our shipyard, which was caused by
the boiling over of the pitch kettle. J his
vessel stood in a small frame structure, ea
pecially desigued for the purpose of scoring
and melting the pitch. At the time of the
fire there was a barrel and a half standing
in the building,-and about half a barrel in
the kettle. The fire was in -tantly opposed
by two powerful streams from the city
mains. The water seemed to have veiv
little effect upon the flames, but as the doz
en Babcock Extinguishers were brought to
bear upon them they werequcikly subdued.
Our experience thus far has been very
satisfactory, and has confirmed the high
opinion we have alwave entertained lor
your extinguishes. SiaoiHy vmirs,
