ignorant or careless in giving their ago. of

Fo It i* a rare thing for n man to celebrate

Tho report of ' Commodore Winfield Scott

which the expedition waa organized and then

survivors. Commodore Schley describes
follows an iroprmivc scene inside Grecly 1
tent:
Lieutenant Greely was found In his sleeping

Poor Farrell El icon was found In his sleeping
tag, where he had lain helpless and hopeless for

to one of the stumps was found! spoon whhb

of strength by the exertion incident thereto. This
rare of Ellison was such ns only brave aiulguu-
icus men, suffering, with each other, Under tho
most desperate circumstances, could think of.
Brrgcnnt Long was very much reduced, though
in somewhat better condition than some of the
others. His office of hunter for the sfswlng parly
bad made it nerersnry to increase slightly his pit
tance of food to maintain his strength, that ha
might continue the battle for food and life for tho
hrlplcss. In his esse, however,, the effect of this
n tin tied effort had told its story in hi* wasted
form. Shorter nnd shortem Journeys were made In
good weather, while In tho frequent bad.jrentho
of that region bis strength was so much 1thpaired
that when the joyful signal whistle wa* heard he.
hnd only cnougji strength tostregalb ofthe*

was a Utter disappointment, as ho saw nothing
A second visit, fifteen minutes latter, brought him
within fifty ysrdsof the Hoar's steam cutter, and

Eabinc. When the steam cutter ran Into the beach
where Long was seen, ho rolled down
Ihe Ice covcrul cliff and was taken Into the cutter,
He informed Lieutenant Caldwell that the loca
tion of tie camp was Just over tho cliff.
lu the core of Sergeant Ellison the medical ofll*
ccn were (ennui from the first that bis chances of
life were very small. As soon ns healthful food

occur. If Ellison's strength should increase
rapidly than lullammntlon, tho amputation ot
tho Injured |>nit* would, perhaps, save hi* Ufa
FYvcinl day* after hi* roscuo, Juno Dr.
Green reported that Killsnn was threatened with
congestion of the brain. The symptom* Increase t
rapidly until the poor fellow lost his reason. At
Good Haven his condition wa* so critical that the
surgeon of the expedition, after consultation, de
termined to amputate troth feet above tho anklo,
ns the only chance of lifo loft the sufibrer. Tho
disciuc, however, triumphed, nnd amid thoblqaic
scenes that had surrounded him for three year* In
his heroic sacrifice, and wlthlu the desolate soli
tude of that region of everlasting ice aud snow,
surrounded by his sorrowing comp-iuious, 'he
parsed away.
Lieutenant Grecly waa physically threatened,
but incirinlly, th?? most vigorous of hi* ptriy. Ife
led laid In his sleeping hag for weeks on account
of his gradually failing strength, Ho wa* unable
to stand, alone for any length of time, and wa*
almost helpless.except inn sittingp??rriur.\ All
the pangs of hunger had ceased. His nppcnraucg
was wild, his hair was loug and unkempt, hi* faco

they were not KnglWhmen, but when he was told
that we were his own countrymen, he (mused
for a moment a* If reflecting, and then
said:
???'I tm glad to see you."
The condition of his camp was In keeping with
the scene inside the tent. Desperate and desolate,
the bleak tamnnes* of the *pot over which the
wild arctic bird would not fly, the row of grave*
on the little ridge a few feet away, with the pro
truding heads and feet of those lately buried, was
A sad but silent witness to the daily inejeaiing
weakness of the Uttle band of survivors. Tha de

???Hi* Grief Stricken Relatives.
From the B???ackthc-ar, Ga., News.
"Mr. Brown Is killed." These startling and i
ful words greeted the cars of the passers
Brantley???s gin hotue early Faturday morning.
Thereon the first floor of the gin house, l??iy Mr.
W. J. Brown with a ghastly wound In his head
from which the blood flowed copiously. Dr.
If. Ftr ith was the first physician to arrive, nnd
together with Dr. H.JT. timttli. who arrived aoou

the home of tu* brother, Dr. Allen Brown, where

Mr. Brown and Mr. if. V. Rodgers had a contract
to make hiric Feel IGand cotton gin roller* for
Mosrs. Brantley & .-???on's and were making them *
ttcir glnhoure. In order to save time Mr. Brow
who was a notive-born genius, had been utilizin'
the t-lcani power to assist him lu turning hi* roll

from the tplli shafting, which is alnjut two fee
Bom tire floor. to hii roller ou tho

no one could hove anticipated the frightful
results that followed the using of it Ou till* p
titular morning he and Mr. Rodger*had jiretej
lu logo to work, nod Mr. Rodgers say* they wer*
engaged In putting the belting cm the shafting pul
ly, having already put itnu the roller. Willie thus
cngRRcd, Mr. Brown on one side of the belting nud
Mr. Rodger* on the other, the belting caught ou a
bolt of the improvised putty, and with lightning-
like rapidity, it wrapped Itself nrour ???
the fhnstinr, jerking the roller almost 1
MantaneouMy from its fastening. As tho rail.,
fitwon touiud> the sha&ting it struck Mr. Rodger*,
knocking his Act from unuer him, cud whirling
on over the shafting, it.* iron axle, protruding
from each end, struck Mr. Brawn on tho head, and
then with powerful force burled itself In the dour.
George Ivey, colored, the veteran fireman nt tiro
engine, was an eye witness to the occurrence, and
the moment he saw the roller Start ho Jumped to
hi* engine nnd shut it oft: but It wa* to > late, tho
fetol work was done almost in the twinkling of au
eye.
