The whole party could barely squeeze in and lie at length, two or three being obliged to occupy the same sleeping bag' the effect of this diminished air •Dace will be seen later on. Their hut was but 100 yards removed from the ice foot of the sound, and 200 yards to the south of them was an artificial lake from which they drew their water supply by melting up ice; as the sea water strained into this lake, they were drinking brackish water all the * On November 1, 1883. Lieutenant Greely took a careful account of his stock of provisions, and found there was but a whole ration for each man (estimating as an army ration about forty-six ouncos of solid food per diem) for forty days. Dr. Pavy and lie ad vised together, and it was with some rehetance that they determined to di vide np the rations so as to make them last until March 1, putting aside from time to timo, so that at the end they would still have ten days’ supplies left with which to attempt the trip to Lit tleton Islond, if tho straits were frozen over. Doctor I’avy did not think the party could exist on the ration during the winter, bnt the common voice was to make it go as far as it would; so each man was given tho following daily allowance: Meat and blubber 4 33 ozi. Bread and dog hilpuit 0.5 " Canned vegetables and rice 1.4 " Batter and lard '. 0.75 ", Soup and beef extract 0.90 " Bsrries,pickles.raislna and milk .1. •' Making the daily allowance for the four months 14.88 ounces. During the win ter the following amount of gamo was secured, which added to their stores: Two seals, yielding about 120 pounds of meat; one bear, yielding 300 pounds ol meat: eight foxes, four pounds each, tad sixty aovekies (urla bmanichii), n small bird, weighing about a pound. March 1 found the party intact with the exception of Sergeant Cross, who died in January with well marked scor butic symptoms—the only case of pro nounced scurvy that developed—and llanf.their Esquimaux hunter,who was lost In bis boat widie hunting seals, early in February. Tho rest ol tho stores having been exhausted, tho re maining supplies were divided up so as to list until May 12. THE UAI'tD APPROACH OK DEATH. Alter the last reduction the party be pm rapidly to weaken nnd die. About the 24th ol March tho whole party was overcomo with asphyxia, nnd nearly lost their lives, owing to tho atmos phere being surcharged witli carbonic (mid. They hail lit their alcohol stove ip the lint to cook a meal, without pre viously haring removed the rags from the vent-hole in tho roof; tho remain ing oxygen of tho air was soon con mmed by tho stove, and the who.e C wcre seised with faintness, ver- atnl dyspnoea. It was with the greatest difficulty they Straggled from their sleeping-hags, nnd stumbled and were helped into tho open air, tnanv Itintintf away and dropping unconscl* oqs after reaching the opening. Being poorly clad for a temperature rnich as prevailed outside at the timo (—46 de peoa Fahrenheit), many were frost bitten. The after affects of this mishap remained fora long time, nnd weakened manv of them. After May 12th everything like a regular ration was exhausted, and they ■Ungglcd on as best they could, catch* mg the shrimps (which they boiled); gathering reindeer moss, wh’i. h, when boiled, yields a mucilngo similar to Iceland moss, and boiling up the seal- J*in linings of their sleeping hags, from which a gelatinous mast was ex- hacied.

Having been frequently urged to give my views upon the subject of trichi nosis, and having repeatedly excused myself heretofore in all cases, it may be well to briefly touch upon the sub ject in the interests of scientific and perhaps international progress. If the American hog is invested with trichime spiralis I, for one, do not fa vor his use as an international bever age. Here and in Boston, where the American hog is largely cooked with the baked beans—which acts as an an tidote to the spiral worm of commerce —the danger is light, but when we con sider that Bismarck’s constituents eat ham, sausage, and even fresh pork, raw, it is apt to prove disastrous on for eign shores. The spiral worm, when raised to the one hundred and sixtieth degree (Fahrenheit) is not dangerous to health, and iuis urged by some that when well done he adds to the flavor ol the pork. Trichime spiralis is a parasitic, qui escent, encysted, nematoid worm. The casli subscriber of Opinion is presented with this definition freely and cheer fully, and he is earnestly requested to paste it in his hat and amuse himself with it whea he is lonely. He may al so tie a line to it and fish with it if he chooses. the trichimv remains encysted some times for years. He has encysted on doing this ever since myself and other scientists discovered him. Why lie should voluntarily continue his career as a nematoid parasite I cannot at this moment explain. However, I am still engaged in my laboratory upon a ham sandwich, anu when I get it dissected I will make a fuller report with much larger words in it than this has. Dresden had eleven trichina.'epidem ics from 1860 to 1872, nnd in 1875, at Ilederslehen, out of 2,000 people 500 had trichinosis and 101 died. It is said to be a very disagreeable death to die. Ham sandwiches at railroad eating- houses do not contain trichime. There must have been trichime in them when ttie 'sandwiches were new, but there are none now. Trichina' can stand everything but eternity. Even the spiral worm must at last yield to the wheeling cycles of relentless years. Put a little mustard on a railroad sand wich and yon can eat it as safely, so far as trichina; is concerned, as' you could a slice of red sandstone with a piece of granite nn each Bide of it. Man, the pig, tho rat, and sometimes tho cat, have trichimc. It has also an noyed the Democratic party soma dur ing the past twenty-four years. The animal is very productive under favora ble circumstances, multiplying and re- denishing the earth to a great degree, luring one week the female trichimc may become the proud mother of 2,000 little spirals, all twins, and closely re sembling each other in form, feature and general characteristics. And yet, if any of these little ones get stepped on and injured she mourns and will not be comforted, even after 16,000 other little cunning children have come to claim a mother’s love. She still grieves for tho one that was ruthlessly squashed. I will now describe the trichimc, that if any reader of the scientific trea- tlso should meet one on Arapahoe street ho could notify the police. When the little trichime is bom into this world of sin, and before he gets his eyes open, hois about l-200th of an inch in length, and rather pale, with sad look on its face. At this age he should be taken to some secluded spot and paris green should bo sprinkled on his or her tall, ss the case may be. In a week after the birth of the trichina: it may lie found some distance away and quite active. He may he (ouud when ten days old as far cast as the southeastern part of the dia phragm, or lie may drift north toward the liver. We should learn from this to shun the first temptation to indulge in the maddening sausage, for one by one it will weld its seductive links about you till at last you are a slave. Let us take warning from others and flee from the gilded hells where the sausage is held to our lips by fair hands, and whose beautiful eves beseech us to cat of it and die. I have eaten sausage myself, I know, but I have reformed now. I am no more its slavo. I con pass by n sausage nSw ami look at it dlnmlis in this uvai find Ml' • *‘\fl ■ who exposed their naked breasts to British bayonets had broken' through the invincible square and killed every invader, who could have honestly con demned the brave negroes aa barbarous nnd cruel and violators of the rules of honorable warfare because they had defended like an avalanche upon the foe. One of the arts of war as defined by Napoleon is always to confront tho enemy with a larger force than his own at a given point.

If shecan fill breaches in her lines as fast as her men are mowed down she may at last tire out the slayers and in turn assume ttie offensive. Whatever may be the result of the present war between Franco and China, t will not fail to educate the Chinese a science of which they know but little. In another decade—orcentury— China majshe treated less contemptu ously by the great powers of Europe, because she will then better under stand how to defend herself. sternly in tho eye sod say: "No air you are not my meat.

New York Journal of Commerce, If China is now a lighting nation, there is no reason why sho may not be come one. War is the only education in tlie military art. Five years of war converted tho undisciplined troops who ran away from Bull Bun into veterans worthy of Napoleon’s Old Guard. France may conqnor China by sea and land in the present war; but if the campaign laats long, the Chinese will pick up a great many ideas from their French foetnan which will be useful in repelling future invasions. China has the advantage of every other nation cn the globe in the superabundance of the raw material for armies. Sho has population estimated at 380,000,000, ■ almost four times that of Russia. If the Coloasua of Europe keeps that conli nent in a chronic state of anxiety by rea son ot the vastness of the Czar’s re sources in men, Chin* need not aban don herself to despair. The Chinese are not cowards. They are by nature peaceful, but, on occa sion, they exhibit great courage. They are intelligent and obedient, and it is tlie opinion of ill foreign officers who have drilled and handled Chinese troops, that with sufficient training, and, wove all, the schooling of actual war, they would cease to be despised by equal numbers of English or Frelien troops. But the numbers ought never to be allowed by the Chinese to become equal, what is tin! use of having more available men than all Europe could set in the field if that signal advantage ia not utilized7 When a French or Engliah •land- in China, it ought to be avh.-d five, ten, or twenty to one 1 be.

One of the most curious of the old Spanish legends is one which is sup posed to account for the extraordinary superiority of Toledan steel over that of the whole world. When the paladin Roland fell wounded unto death on the gory battle, field of Roncesvanx, his fa mous sword, Durandal, became tho prize of a Saracen soldier in the service of the caliph ol Burgos. Never was joy so great as when it became gener ally known among the Moors that their redoubtable foe, Roland, bad departed from tliis material world forever, and that his no-less-renowned Dn- randal had fallen into their hands, and thus would never again be able to work the terrible havoc among the ranks it had been wont to do. Tlie caliph gave orders that a mag nificent case should bo prepared in which lie intended to deposit tho sword and expose it to his subjects, who all knew of it only too well by fame, for had not many a father, son, husband, brother, or undo been sent off abruptly to another world, there to be welcomed by the celestial houris, by tlie long swing and heavy crash of that en chanted blade, wielded by tlie mighty arm of a dangerous enemy, who had es caped scatheless from the fury and re venge of his bitter foes ? All the greater hoi iday was the day to be looked up; n on which they were to be ocularly satisfied that the dreadful weapon had truly be come their own. Therefore a day and an hour was appointed on which the sword should lie formally put into its case for public inspection. The case which had been so carelully prepared was gorgeous with gold embellishments and many rare and precious stones, mostly presented by the caliph himself. On the appointed day he came in great state to receive the sword. Taking it up with both his hands, he was about to place it in its case, when, with a loud cry of stupefaction, he stepped hurriedly back. Everybody was then able to notice that Du- randal had escaped from his hands, and was rapidly disappearing in the ground, working its way down ns though it were a screw. It Is not nn easy task to portray the confusion that reigned among the turbulent crowd; enough to say the rushing to and fro was highly bewildering, and tho im precations loud and fearful. The swarthy warriors cursed nnd tore their beards, for Durandal could not bo stopped or recovered. It had escaped them and disappeared from their sight forever. For many a long year the sword remained underground, working its way all over the country, over moun tains, down dales, and under plains, causing strange uphcals and deep cracks on ita path, and keeping the poor people in o continual state of superstitious terror, At length Durandal either got tired or found a resting place that suited it, and so gave up its erratic inovome ts, to lie quietly concealed in a bed of a mountain spring of singularly bright and pure water, whose waters, flowing between grassy banks and over a shingly bed, passed tho proud city of Toledo. From that hour the spring acquired a mar vellous virtue, which bestowed immor tality on tlie fair Spanish town; for, owinu to this water being used, the stceFbf Toledo waa of the best, and the armorer* were enabled to defy tlie rest of Christendom, if not Damascus itself. Senator Vance at his Best on the Stump. Charlotte Observer. Nobody introduced Senator Vance. As he stepped to the table and poured out a glass of water, a shout that waa echoed and re-echoed rose from the multitude. Old men threw np their lists and embraced each other, and it was some time before the notes of Vance's welcome voice could be heard. During tlie speaking one old man, whose form shook like an aspen leaf, sat at Vance's feet and occupied him self alternately in wiping tears from his eyes and in spitting tobacco juice. We never saw such devotion. hvery- Iwdy had mouth, eyes and ears open. Vance commenc&l by telling them of the Irish regiment that surrendered to a Confederate regiment, and hoist ed tlie white flag. One of the con quering companies did not see the llsg and continued firing, when a voice was heard ringing out: “Ceasefirin’, ve bloody Bpalpeens—don’t you see ye’re killin' Dimmecrats?’’ So in every direction ho looked, he could s ee only Democrats. Such an outpouring, Sen ator Vance said, he had never before seen in North Carolina. Ilia affections, he declared, were equally divided be tween Cleveland and Catawbacounties. When be was in Catawba he loved Ca tawba best, but when he crossed the line he loved Cleveland best, and was only sorry that a fellow coaidn’t have two wives. Here the Senator told the joke about the old Dutchman who waa arraigned in court for having two wives, and the excuse he gave therefor. Tins brought out a tremen dous roar.

Tits recent "affair" at Dawson ap pears to have stimulated the military spirit over the entire State. Three thousand negroes, it is said, were in attendance upon the district meeting near Greensboro. Tun Camilla artesian well committee are advertising for a competent con tractor to finish boring tlie well. The county commissioners of Henry county have abandoned the idea of building a new jail for the present. The Newt and Advetiiter says the in dications are that Mr. Turner “will have a walk-overin the election in No vember.” The freight rate on cotton from Al bany to Savannah will, alter October 1, be reduced from 52 cents to 43 cents per hundred. Tiie business of the Brunswick and Western railroad was formally turned over to the new president, Capt. John A. Davis, Friday. Newman will soon have a new bank building. Work has already been be gun upon it, and will be pushed to a rapid completion. Blakely’s military oompany is drag ging somewhat, owing to tlie fact that the ”ol<\er citizens have not offered sufficient encouragement.” The Greensboro Home-Journal is of the opinion that the liquor question “will in 1888 be the leading issue in the national political platforms.” Work on the artesian well at Bruns wick has been "actively commenced.” Tlie contractor estimates that boring will be begun in about ten days. “An Eastern capitalist,” says the Romo Courier, “is negotiating for the purchase of Mount Aito. He contem plates fixing the mountain up as a Bummer resort.” The Coweta Adverliter reports that Newnan lias experienced one of the greatest religious revivals ever known there. The meeting was conducted by Rev. 8am Jones. Matters are fast taking shape where by McDonough will soon have a first- class academy building. About $2,000 is tieeded to get the enterprise on a successful footing. Ulacksueaii Newt And Signal: Wo will not get out a trade issue this sea son, but all the same there will be lots of business done in Blaoksliear between now and next spring. Coweta Adeertiter: It is said that tlie ;rand jury of Monroe county last week ound a true bill against one of the leading physicians in the county lor selling whisky in violation of law. Ahericus Recorder: There has been an increase of over 400 mechanics in this county the post year, and there is a cry for more. Verily, Sumter will soon “bloom and blossom as a rose.” The Increase in the real estate of Tocoa over last year has been $29,470. Tho Newt says: “This is not tho re sult of a higher assessment, it is the result of improvement from April, 1883, to April, 1884.” Dooly Vindicator: A blind colored woman picked 145 pounds of cotton for Mr. Thomas Folds in two days last week. This shows that these las; good-eyed ones doing nothing coul make an honest living if they would only work Five prisoners escaped Saturday night from the Fort Gaines jail.
