THE POLARIS. Capt. Hall Tells Esquimaux Joe and Hans Christian That He is Poisoned. Capt. Buddington Threatens to Send Capt. Tyson and Party “On the Road to Hell.” Further Northward Explorations Defeated by Cowardice and Crime. A Terrible Story. Captain Hall’s Sickness. New York, May 21, 1873. John Herron, steward of the Polaris, makes the folic wieg statement concerning the sickness of CapUin Hall . “Captain Hall bad good health up to the time of returning from the sledge expedition, lie was [not] sick when he came on board, but complained soon afterwards, and said that the heat of the cabin affected him. I asked what he would have; I was anxious to get him something nice. Ho didn’t care about anything but a cup of coffee, and didn’t drink even that He was sick a fort night, and talked very little. He was per fectly delirious the last few days. I think ha was paralyzed in one side. There was noth ing sudden about his death. He was at tended by Dr. Bessels and Mr. Mofton, who did everything in their power to alleviate his sufferings. His death made us all feel very sad. WHAT CAPTAIN TYSON SAYS. Captain Tyson, speaking of Cautaiu Hall’s death, says: “Hall was sick fifteen days. He was insensible when he died. He started from the ship on a sled expedition northwards on the 10th of October. He was absent four teen days, and returned on the 21th of Octo ber to the ship. On the 8th of November he died, and was buried on the 11th. His grave bore south, southeast, and about five hundred paces distant from the observatory in Polaris t>ay, which was in latitude 81:38, longitude Cl .41, on shore. We erected a board over his grave, with an inscription giving his name, ago (fifty years), date of death, and command of the North Polar Expedition. All hands, except the cook, attended his funeral. It was a dark, dismal, cold, windy and disagreeable day. The STATEMENT OF ESQUIMAUX JOE. Esquimaux Joe, in a published statement, speaks in a disapproving way of Captain Bad- dington, sailing master of the Polaris, and says Hall was poisoned, and that Hall so ex pressed himself to him, saying there was something bad in the coffee which he drauk on returning from the sledge expedition; that it made him sick ; and that he had a burning sensation. STATEMENT OF HANS CHRISTIAN. Ilans Christian's statement is to the same effect. CAPTAIN HALL DEFEATED BY BUDDH?C*TON• But here, on the eve of an easy victory, arose that fatal difference of opinion which blasted all the heroic explorer’s prospects and rendered fruitless that mighty energy and la bor which had already led him such a dis tance over the barren and inhospitipal regions of the unknown north. The sailing-master, Baddinglon, had several times expressed his anxiety to go no further, and strongly urged the necessity of retreating to winter at Port Hope, nearly 2l0 miles south of their present highly advantageous position. Hall was determined to stay if possible, and would not consent to this latter propo sition. BuddingtoD, however, persisted. Before concluding to retreat, Hall called a council, consisting of himself, Cap tain Tyson, Hester (the mate) and Budding- ton, to consider which course was most ad- visiable. At this council, Captain Tyson strongly advocated Captain Hall’s views, and urged the impropriety of desisting. The brave and right course was overruled, to which cir cumstance it is possible Captain Hall owed his death. If the vessel had continued on its course, as Captain Hall desired and urged, the expedition would in all probability have been crowned with success, and the dreams of geographers would have been realized, i But an unaccountable timidity, the offspring j of craven cowardice or other improper motive, annihilated the hopes oi Captain Hall. Bud- diugton, from the position which he occupied, was master of the situation. He said, “thus far have you gone; you shall go no farther;” and be was obeyed, reluctantly of coarse, as a matter of necessity. It is impossible to aua- j lyze the motives which prompted Budding- * ton. From his knowledge of the Arc tic regions, he most have known that it was as dangerous to turn back as to proceed, and that if the vesaei was to be frozen in she might as well be frozen in at one place as another. The fact that Captain Tyson supported the views of Captain Hall furnishes additional confirmation that the latter was right and Buddington wroDg. The blame, if there is blame attend ing the failure of the expedition, will cleave to Buddington, unless he can (if still living) satisfactorily explain what now seems to be his unaccountable conduct. It is not too much to say that his action blasted all the hopes of bis superior. TTAT.T.’S DESPERATE PERSISTENCE. Although thwarted in his grand designs, the explorer did not abandon his investiga tions; but, in company with the Esquimaux men and the mate, started on a sledge expedi tion, from which he returned to die. The fact is, Hall appears to have been the only one of the scientific department who ventured. GREENE *. ROSSICNOL. BaoccHor, to W. H.

TAYLOR b HOOKE, Pnornir roua, Bean's Station, East Tennessee. TYSON S PARTY ABANDONED. The prevailing impression among the un fortunate nineteen who were left behind was that Bnddington bad willfully abandoned them to their fate. He had been anticipating tbe breaking up of tbe ice for some time; and if he bad wished to have Tyson and his companions on board, he cunld easily have represented the matter to them 11 such a light that they would not have ventured to be absent at so critical a juncture. Bnt no snch intimation was given to the men on tbe ice. The vessel did not drift away so suddenly t hat the men conld not have been rescued from the perilous position. Tyson says: “I conld have got aboard the vessel that night and been there now, bnt I would not leave tbe women and children. My duty was on the ice. I thought be [Captain Bnddington] wonld get back to us next day, which be conld have done. The breaking away was caused by the flow to which the ship was fastened drifting in between tbe land and some icebergs that were jammed. The jam broke ap the flow and the vessel broke away. It was abont 9 or 10 o'clock in the nigbt. Tbe temperature was abont zero. That evening it had been nineteen degrees above.” THE COWABDICE OE BUDDINGTON. Captain Tyson thinks tbe ill feeling and bad designs of Bnddington and a few others who were his accomplices had continued from the first; on each ot Captain Hall’s determi nations to go as far north as possible, Bnd- dington determined (from fear, or whatever cause) that he should not. After Hall’s death most of the officers were in favor of continuing and poshing north, and Tyson says Bnddington, in genera! terms, expressed bis determination to send them, Tyson and his party, “on the road to hell," as soon as opportunity offered. He characterized Bud- |H dington as a great scoundrel, and declared :■■jf-iM that he purposely abandoned them to destrnc- .y^Mticn. He gives Myers tbe character of being "v* ^^^Jenergetic and qualified in hit department, bnt thinks he was not sufficiently aware of the condition of affairs at the time of separation, H and the possibility of getting rescued then, to be able to give any opinion upon it. The H Germans, according to his account, ruled the ship after Hall’s death, and there was neither H Inw nor system on board, every one working W^m entirely on his own acsount. ’ f ESQUIMAUX JOE’S STOBY. Joe says, partly in answer to inquiries and W partly speaking on his own account without k Oeinginterrogated at all: “Very fond of Cap- r tain Hall. Didn't like Bnddington; always talking behind back; asking story at time. Some men here in St Johns and some in ship used to quarrel. I went with Captain Hall, pnrpose to go sledge to north. After Hall died, Buddington wouldn't go. Tell Buddington I come to go north; he wouldn’t let me go. Buddington and I quarreled good deal about it I went with Hall on the last sled, and Hans and Chester, the mate; we went fifty miles north of the ship on ice and S land. We found musk ox tracks on land. Sun nearly gone when we came back to ship. Hill told me when be was sick somebody gave bim some thing bad. He was sick two weeks. Bnd dington did not take care of him. I think it not right; made me feel bad—sick man, good man, too. Throat swelled something; could not drink; said he burn inside. I stopped up with him every night, with another man. Hall was in cabin. I talked to Hall mneb; he no talk to others as much as me. I didn’t see Hall in first night after he came aboard from sled. I came aboard with bim in afternoon. He looked well, happy, and spoke nice. The lour of ms [Hall, Chester, Hans and Joe] had coffee when came aboard. I had mine in my own room underneath cabin. Hall in cabin, and two others in galley. At 10 o'clock that night my wife told me Hall very sick—vomit ing—eat something. Next morning I go ate him. and say, ‘what matter ?' He all alone in cabin. He say, ‘you pretty well, Joe?' I say ‘yes.’ He say, ‘you drink bad coffee last night?’ I say ‘no.’ I ask him did be drink bad coffee. He say something bad in coffee I drink last night, making me sick and stomach bad.' Bam a morning he got very sick, vomiting. After five days he feel better, wake np, and say he want to see my little girl, and say to her h e think he wonld leave her, but didn't like. After he get better, he get four doctor books to try and eee what make him sick. He study bard and say to me, ‘That name is making me sick. ’ ’’ (Joe explained that he, Captain Hall, hero pointed to a name in oae of the books, which he read out. It was something abont prison.) “I think after Hall die, everybody watching one anotbers Me no understand what they mean. All afraid somebody pat down poison in water. _ something.
