Scheutze, “IL left New York, joined Lieut. Harber at London, and together we proceeded by way of St. Petersburg to Moscow. There we bought most of our winter outfit—fur stockings, fur boois, cloaks, coats, moose skins and great fur bags in which we slept, each man having his own bag. At Orenburg, 900 miles north of Mos- cow, We left the railroad, and by sleds drawn by horses made our way to Irkutsk, a village on the banks of the Lena. Though it was late in the Spring, the ice had not yet broken up. We tried to secure a vesselto go down the Lena, but fail- ing in this we set to workto buildone. There were Only nine menin our party then, fiye seamen, a Cossack, an interpreter, Lieut. Harber, and mnyself. With the aid of natives we com- pleted a schooner and rigged a vessel by the time the ice had broken up. Sbe was filty-one feet long, With nine feet breadth of beam, and we called her the search. Inthe search we pro- ceeded over 2,000 miles down the river to Yakutsk. On the way. we passed Melville, Hunt and Mor- ris atnight, not wry ty Bh, course that they were near. But word bad n left along the line of travel and at OleKnaar, arude settiement, Meivilie learned of our ex ition from a note left oe Harber. © had already found an BURIED DELONG’S*PARTY. Melville at once sent Lieut. Hunt and a seaman to join our party. From Yakutsk we went on to the mouth of the Lena, reachin teaspoon and uw jack-knife were ali we found. The river began to treeze, and not wishing to lose our boat, we tracked her 150 miles to Bulun,”’ “What do you meap by ‘tracked’?” was asked. “Well, there was no wind, an 80 we had to tie ropes to the vesseland tow her up stream, scrambling over the rough rocks and tice that lined the banks. We workea in alternate gangs, tirst officers tracked for four hours and the men taking theirturn, The sharp rocks cut our shoes to pieces and the ropes cut into our flesh. Yes, it was hard work,” and the officer wiped his brow as though the mere reference to the labor tired him. At Bulun the boat was beached and.Jeaving Lieut.Hunt in charge, Lieuts. Harber and Scheutze went to Sagistyr, a deserted village, where a@ mission meteorological station bad been established. We remained there until the roads froze up, and then Harber started back to Bulun across the Delta, via Zemonerloch, and I set out on a search through the Eastern delta, and, conveved by means of dog-sleds, I went to Barkin. Atevery village it was our custom to inquire of the principal citizens if any trace of our friends had been fouud. Our trips were made principally in dog-sleds. Next month. in Novem- ber, 1882, we gave up the Search and returned to Yakutsk, homewara bound, Here we were MET BY A TELEGRAM ordering us to return at once with the remains of the De Long party, which were buried at the mouth of the Lena. The telegram had taken from August to November to reach Yatusk. So back again we started. The journey from Bulua to the grave had to be made with dog sleds. Reindeer could not be used, as there are no trees to tie them to, and they wonld stampede, We had 150 dugs,and used fifteen to a sled. March 4, inauguration day, we reached the tomb. On the only hill iu that region, within sight of the spot where they died, buried not below but above;tbe ground, we found;the ten bodies, which we have since accompanied for a year and a haif. The remains had all been placed in a rough box. This was covered with brush and stoves and above all was planted a cross. The bodies were blackened and appeared like mum- mies. We could recognize them in spite of the changes. Four days were spent at the grave prying out the bodies with picks and strapping them to the sleds. Then we retraced our way to Yakutsk, reaching there the last day of March. Here the bodies were enclosed in one large coffin and buried again in the ground that is al- ways frozen. Harper went to Irkutsk to buy coffins. He was unsuccessfuland we made our own coffias. Six months after the bodies had been buried the secoud time we took them up, thawed them out, straightened the limbs, which had been bent by freezing, removed tne half dozen suits of clothes which each wore and wrapped the bodies in linen and felt and placed them in metallic cof- fins, Then,on November 28th, the bomeward journey was recommenced. For nineteen days we traveled day ana night in sledges drawn by horses to Irkutsk, 2,000 miles distant, where the remains were placed on a public catafaique. Or- enburg, the nearest railway station, was reached January 17tb, and there were found the coffins that had been sent by she United States Govern- ment a year before. THEY WERE TOO HEAVY to be transported over the snow. Once more the remains changed cofflins,and the remainaer of the journey was made by civilized modes of travel.” Some delay was experienced between Orenburg and Moscow in getting the consent of the Russian Government to the removal of the bodies, but of this Lieut. Schuetze declined to speak. Through Moscow and Berlin to ———— the remains with simple cere- February 6. Each nies on board the Frisia bor i a metallic bod is now inclosea in casket.

The remains were renfoved to the plier, where they will remain In charge of an undertaker until the official reception to-morrow morning. Lieut. Scheutze expressed his pleasure at being abie to meet face to face “a good, square Amer meal.” “Ihave lived on reindeer meat and fish so long that I am glad of a change.” The only sickness encountered was the case of Amequin, a hunter of the Jeannette party, who diea of small-pox.

C., February 21.—The closing week of the social season is to be as thoroughly enjoyed as was the opening week. Everybody seems determined to get the most out of it. There are balls and parties and receptions and calls and theater’parties and gayeties of all sorts. By the end of next week most of these will have disappeared and the much needed rest will have come. Even Lent, however, will not bring entire cessation of these social enjoyments. Several Cabinet ladies have decided to continue to receive in a very informal way during Lent,and the theater parties, which have become so fashionable, will not be discontinued. The quiet little dinners which wealthy Congressmen and others with a surplus of cash are in the habit of giving will con- tinue. Yet there will bea cessation of the con- stant run of festivities and it will be a very grate- ful one tomany of those engaged. This peing the lass full week, everybody is busy. chief event of Monday was’ the Bachelors’ german at Wormley’s. It was the second event of this kind which the Bachelors’ Clup has given and was a very elegant one. . The attendance was {from the very best social circies, the dressing superb and the favors exquisite. There were on the same day the usual receptions by the wives of the Just- ices of the Supreme Court, and many eveats of minor importance. The priucipal event of Tues- day Was the President’s reception to mem of Congress. It wasto a certain extent a copy of the one of last week. The President sizes three of these receptions; the first to the diplomatic corps, the second to members of Congress, and the third to the army and navy. To the first he invites the members of Congress and the and navy officers “to meet the diplomatic corps” ; to the second. he invites the diplomatic corps and the army and navy officers “to meet the mem- bers of Congress” ; to the third he invites the dip- lomatie corps and the members of Congress *‘to meet the army and navy.” Tne Cabinet, the Su- preme Court Justices and a select few are also in- vited on these occasions, The Secretaries of War and the Navy issue orders to the officers to attend in full dress’ uriform, the diplomats come in cours costume, and members of Congress come in their best ‘“togs.” The consequence is that there is a great similarity in those three,yet they are Dy no means uninteresting. The combinatious areas charm- ingandas changeable as those ofthe Kaleido- scope and equally fascinating. The attendance last night was, perhaps, hardly as great as on the preceding Tuesday, when the line of carriages reached out pa3t the pepereans of Justice, past the Riggs House, past the Treasury and down Pennsylvania avenue beyond Wiliard’s Hotel, yet it was very large and tue scene very brilliant. Yesterday there were the usual Cabinet recep- tions and also ihat of Mrs. Speaker Carlisle, Mrs, Marshali McMichael, and in the evening tnat uf the Wisconsin Republican Association. This be- ing the last weekly reception that some of the Cabinet ladies will give, the attendance is very large. Carriages are whirling in every direction, and the well-trained legs of liveried flunkies actuaily ache with the sirain to which they are subjected by frequent descents from their lofty seats and services at the carriage door. Mrs. Lin- cola gaveup the secia]) world yesterday, haying announced that it was her last reception for the season. Mrs.Carlise also took her leave,fearing that teo much handshaking may cause a return of her old enemy the rbeumatism,and she has announced that she will hoid no more receptions. This even- ing tne ladies connected with the Homeopathic —— will give a dancing reception from 9 to 12. The music will be furnished by the Marine Prof. Sou a nade music W i. ‘oma by See this season, and a number of minor soci: The peopie whe have been accustomed Ww attend- ing the brilliant receptions and hops given at the Russian Legation each Friday will probably feel somewhat lost,as the doors of that very hospitable mansion closed for the season on last Friday evening. On Saturday there will be the usuai re- ception at the White House, at which Mrs. McEl- roy Will be assisted by several ladies of promi- nence. Ex-Postmaster-General King gives his usual Saturday evening ‘literary,’ on which he rides himself, and the week will end as brilliant- y as it began. LOST HIS LEG.

Ei : | | The Chances are St. Louis Will Get the Convention. a Whe Will Present Her Claims To-Mor- row—Chicagoans Keeping Up Their Bluster—Lively Debate in the House on the Military Academy Bill—Wash- ington Notes. By Telegraph to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., February 2t.-—The 8t. Louis delegation is very hopeful. Tins morning all the members of the committee, except ex- Mayor Prince of Boston and one other, have af- rived, either by person or proxy. A careful can- ¥vass among them sbow the following favorable to St. Louis, though as the rule members decline to ledge themselves. They cannot de so with any ree of propriety. With general expression the South and Southwest, however, strongly fayor St. Louis, and as those feeling éhat leading candidates favor other places as favorable to’ themselyes their inclination is to go to St. Louis with a determination to make the situation entirely fair. The executive committee of St. Louis had a brief meeting this morning, but, finding the situation entirely unsat- isfactory, did nothing, adjourning gatil the after- noon. The situation is greatly improved as against that of yesterday aud the previous day. There is no concealing the fact that the St. Louis men were rattled inthe early part of the fight, Chicago bluff and bluster took them by surprise. The fact that representatives of the windy city were already organized and covered the , field when St. Louis came in caused them a good deal of worry, and, with Chicago’s claim of the earth, disturbed them a good deal. TO-DAY, HOWEVER, they see that Chicago’s talk really had no founda- tion in fact. Members of the National Committee refuse in every case to pledge themselves, and have toid everybody frankly that they cannot promise anything though they would be glad to listen to arguments on all sides. The resuit fis that Chica.zo’s claim of a large number of pledges of yotes yeswrday isnow kvewn to have been On the whole St Louis’ prospects seem to be excellent. Tie Post- DISPATCH correspondent this morning visited the headquarters of all the delegations and found there were none more hopeful than St. Louis, and that none had any ciaim to pledged votes. Outside, among fhe public, where public senti- ment, which will control the matter at last, is to be found, more people are talking tn favor of St. Louis than any sing:® point. It may be set down asa fact that St. Louis’ prospects are gaining strengib hourly, and she is more likely to get the convention than any other of the piaces strug- giing for it. The Louisville people say this morn- ing their only hope is in ,xetting up a dead jock on other points, while Cincinnati is searcely heard of. A iarge majority of the members of the committee now in the city favor taking the convention west of the Alleghenies. The Wash- ington Post this morning says the city in which the Democratic Convention should be held is calied Washington, Weare out of politics bere nd are used to big things. We will give a fair eld and no favor. The city above all others in which the conveniion should be heki is called Cincimnaii. Perhaps if Washbing- ton is passed by through stress of eircumstances,and they go West, St. Louis will do as well as aby other place. THE ST.

Ameriean minister, denies the return to f Represeutatives:of the Tacket’ tesek mae The commuuleation bears r . date February 9. In it Bismarck says that, while any vetagnition of Lasker’s personal gualities is gratifying, nevertheless the resulutious “con- fained an upinion regarding the object and effect of Lasker’s politicai activity, which was opposed to my convictions.” For that reason he states he could pot ask the Emperor for the necessary wer to communicate the resolutions to the Reise tag, because he should have to officially advocate ab opinion which he coula not recognize as correct. je BETWEEN BAIN AND WELLS, The Post Office fight continues to receive much attention. Ex-Chairman Beach of the State Re- ublican Committee. who is & strong einer man, bas arrived here. ben Beach is in Washington it is generally safe to suppose that Filley is not far away, though whether this will prove the faet in this ease can not be told. Beach is supposed to be here to help the Filley cause wherever he can. The general belief is thatthe chances are about equally divided between Bain and Wells. The last named gentieman said to a Pos- DISPATCH reporter to-day that he thought his chances very good, and believed the question would be settled in a few days—perhaps to-day, THE SENATE. Bills were introduced aud referred as follows: By Senator Paimer—To,authorizejthe erection of a@ public buliding at De:roit. y Senator Cullom—To improve the navagation of the Mississippi River by addingsio and strengthening tie Sny Island levee. THE HOUSE. Mr. Dibrell reported au agricultural appropria- tion bili. Ordered printed and recommitted. The House then went into committee of the whole, with Mr. Blandin the chair, on the Mili- tary Academy bill. Mr Belfor in speaking of the formal amend- ment, said be might select the brightest boy in bis State, have him examined by the prasident of the State University, and send him to West Point Academy, and, while his mind might be as bright as Burnside’s diamond, the gentiemen at the in- stitution would declare that unless he answered some question in grammar properly he would be rejected.

Comments of the German Pregs on | Bismarck’s Action, -— = The Firing of Cannon Heard at Trinki- tat—Gordon Anxious for .n Interview With El Mahdi—Foreign F ished BERLIN, February 21.—The North German Gazette (Bismarck’s organ) repels the attack of | the opposition newspapers ou the decree of Bis- marck relatiye to the Lasker resolution.

Mrs, Paramore, Nee Nellie Hazel- tine, Breathes Her Last. = She Pays the Penalty Often Exacted - From Motherhood—Sorrow of the Family—Unconscious at Her Death— Her Career. | te Ry ps paneten wile of Wroaerick W. Paramore. ; The foregoing three lines will cause many a sigh for the memory of one who for a number of years has been &@ conspicuous figure iu the lead- ing social cireles of St. Louis. There will be, as there has been to-day whereverthe news pene- trased, expressions of the deepest regret over the untimely death. Thereisa pathos about it that touches the heart of the most callous. The young wife gives birth toachild on the one day in the - year set apart for the interchange ofdoving mess- ) ; , , \ who were with thei can tel). ages,and ina week thereafter pays the penalty that nature too often exacts of the mother. The child, supposably a messenger of Love, was real- ly the souvenir of Death, and before its infant hands in their ‘blind touches coula thrill the mother’s breast, they were robbed of such contact forever. Ali unconscious of her impending fate, and over confident of the strength which had been hers all through ber life, the young mother cominunicated the vews of the coming of her little son to a number of her ntimate personal friends through cards, bearing e words; “Compliments of Mrs. Frederick allace Paramore and son. Born, St. Valentine’s , 1884.” These cards were received by many of the friends to whom they were addressed within tweniy-four bours aiter the event had oc- curred, showing that in ber lack of knowledge of the suffering to be incurred by a wastage of strength, aud through her negligence in securing to herself the services of a wise female relative, Mrs. Paramore did that which, ln all probability, _ brought on tha fever which caused her death, It wasa rash thing to do, but there Was no ove near who could advise her, and it was done thoughbtlessly. The cards were in Mrs. Paramore’s handwriling, and before they had long been in the _ possessiou of her friends, her sufferings began, It was not until night before last, however, that her condi- tion became so alarming as to warrant the an- nouncment to her relatives by the attending phy- sician that SHE WAS DANGEROUSLY “e She was very low all Tuesday nizht, Dut early yesterday morning she rallied, and during the day there was so much hope for her that her friends brightened and indulged in the prospect that she would soon be restored to them. rs. Comstock and Gundlach held a cousultation over her case at the residence yesterday afternoon, from which time Mrs. Paramore was closely ‘watched. She was put under the influence of opiates, and remained uvconscious all the even- ing and up to the time of her death. Mrs. J. W. Paramore, her mother-in-law, had carefully watched the sick woman until yesterday evening, when Mrs. Hazeltine, the mother, arrived trom New York. She had been telegraphed to and would bave arrived eariier but for the delay of the train upon which sse came. Upon her arrival she took charge of her daugiiter, and was at her bed- side until death came. Whether the young muther suffered or not, could not be told, Sle breathed laburiously, occasionally gasping and struggling for breath, and anon drawiug a deep inhalation and then subsiding into tranquility. About mid- hight, the other members of tue family having re- tired toa much-needed rest,, Mrs. Hazeltine be- came alarmed at an increasing pallor in her dar- ling’s face, which by degrees became pinched and sharp. The large brown eyes became glazed, and a more rapid breathing indicated a phys- ical struggle. Toe mother alarmed the household, which consisted of Mrs. J. W. Para- more, Mr. F. W. Paramore, the husband, ana Mr. W. B, Hazeltine, jr., the brother. These quickly assembled about the bed whereon reposed the dying form, and in anguish watcied tie life slow- ly leave the suffering frame. Death came at 1:30. hose who were present could hardly realize the terrible truth, but when at last it impressed itself upon them their grief was unspeakabie. Mr. F. . Paramore, whe had scarcely left his wife’s side for a moment during her iliness, broke down completely. Only those who are aware of his deep affection for his wife can estimate his grief. The grief of the mother was no less intense, while Mrs. Paramore, whose strong attachmeut tor her g0n’s wife 1s well known, was inconsolapie. How they passed the night, only they and the friends The morning sun that lit up the chilled avenue upon which the resi- \dence faces threw ile sigaaows of calling friends } ; } ‘ upon the sidewaik and revealed to their eyes the bunch of black crape ou the door, which conveys the inteiligence of the presence of death within a house:.old. Liitie unilomned messengers, bearing telegraphic dispatches from distant friends, occasionally disappeared within the door, while in the strect were rows of vehicles which had carried the visitors thither. Messages, an- nouncing the date of their arrival, were received from the father and brothers of the deceased, whose presence seems absolutely necessary now to Mrs. Hazeltine. The bereaved relatives were visited by throngs ot friends all day long. No ag- rangements have been made for the funeral, and will not be made until Mr. Hazeltine and his sons arrive. THE REMAINS were seen by but few. They ceposed in the death- chamber. Up-stairs the iittle cause of all this sadness slept the age ul sleep of infancy. Those who have séen the ciiid say he is a beautiful boy, large, strong and vigerous. He has been in as perfect healih as intanucy adinits. The little eyes have not assumed their permanent color, and the features have not become marked enough to warrant the tracing of a resemblance to others, and the customary avunouncement of all nurses that it is a lovely child will have to be taken in lieu of a description. While the leading features of Mrs. Paramore’s life are familiar to all St. Louisans, a short review of ner career cannot but be in order. | SHE WAS BORN in this city at the family residence on the 20th of November, 1858, being the first child of the union of Mr. avd Mrs. W. B. Hazeliine. The three echil- dren that were born alter her were William B., Cnarles and George C. Hazeltine. She crew to be a bright, vivacious girl, ety no noticeable romise of a comeliness which afterward made being rather more. remarka- ble for her talents and progress in studies than for her personal appearance. She was always of a gay,ivolatile disposition, and, not- withstanding the rapidity with which she com- leted her studies, found plenty of time to indulge n the social amusements which are so fascinating to all bright giris, Her talent for music was par- ticularly marked, and she obtained a proficiency as a pianisie, which wasenviabie. The greater part of her educativn was imparted to her at the ola Bonham Seminary, but she finished at the Mary Institute, graduating from that school with high honors at the age of 15. Afterward she took an advanced course at the Institute. She made her debut into society onher sevenieeuth birthday, at aparty given in her honor by her mother. From the night of her debut she took a front rank as a beautiful girl, ana so weil aid she sustain her reputation in that respect that before many years Went by she achieved the name of being the belle of St. Louis. The great social successes of Nellie Hazeltine are too numerous and too well known to need recount- ing. er famous, In her twentieth year she yisited the East- ern watering-places, and her many attractions be- ing recognized, her reputation asa beauty was heightened. She bade farewell to her maiden life on the 2dof December, J83i, when she wedded Mr. F. W. Paramore, sou of Col. J. W. Paramore, ope of the Texas and St. Louis Railway. he wedding took place at Philadelphia, was sol- nized 4 th oO that a brili- her marriage emniz r) bishop episcopal a jocese, an was fant affair. From the date of “phe lived quietly with her husband, but neverthe- ing ‘corner of Ewin Jess indulged in many social entertainnients, not- ably the historical encampment at the Armory and at a dramatic performance ot the McUul- lough Club.

"Last fall she went to ouse- new residence on the a aveuue and Coestnut street. at sshoulders, a small waist, an ree limbs of an Englishwoman.

COMBINED AGAINST BAIN. Filley, Bennett and Wells Pooling Issues eon the Postmastership. “George Bain would have been postmaster over & week ago,” said a gentleman just returned from Washington to a Post-DIsPATCH reporter, “were it not fora very strange shift in the situation which teok place while I was there. You see Bain was strongly in the lead as against any one of the several other candidates, but just as his success seemed about assured te fact developed that there had been a pooling of issues between Filley, Bennettand Rodney Wells. Up to that time, you know, they had been fighting each other, and Filley seemed to regard Ben- nett’s action in applying for the position as an act of disloyalty, if not impudence. SBen- nett, however, found out, it seenis, that he had no possible shew for appointinent because of the implacable opposition of Mr. Hays and _ his friends, who are very strong in Administration circles, and who regard Bennett as the man through whose agency Mr. Hays’ misfortunes were brought about. So believing, Mr. Bennett came to the -coneciusion that his old po- sition mn the Post Office was good enough for him, at least that it was immensely betier than no position outside thé office, hence a spirit of conciliation came over him. Messrs. Wells and Filleyv, it appears, became impressed with their common danger meanwhile. and a sort of tripartite agreement was arrived at. Just what its terms are I duvon’t know, any further than that if eit Wells or Filley goes in, it willbe by aid of the Bennett strength, and whichever of th@m receives the osition will be bound to put Mr. Bennett back in iis old place. I imagine, however, that Mr. Wells is to be put forward for first place bDy.the triumvirate, and Mr. Filley will stay in the back- ground and virtually control things through his old friend, Bennett.”’ “Will their united strength be sufficient to win against Fishback ana Bain?” ? “Taon’t think Mr. Fishback has any hope of getting the position. and if he abandcns the field his support will probably goto Bain. At all events, I think the effect of the new move has been merely tv delay Mr. Bain’s appointment a lit- le. You see Arthur is very anxious, indeed, to get a Missouri delegation in his favor to the National Convention, and he is consequentiy very desirous of making a popular appointment. His fear of making a mistake is the explanation of all this delay.’ FOUR COURTS BREVITIES. Cases Disposed of in the Criminal Courts— Warrants Issued To-Day. Victor Klugman and Ed.

Three of the leading bar-keepers of Washington have ex- pressed themselves in favor of holding the Democratic Convention in CARTER HARRI- SON'S town. Tre New York Assembly yesterday passed a bili depriving the Aldermen of New York City of their control over the Mayor’s ap- pointments. New York has recently had severe experience of the evils of a:Solid Seven. Tue New York Sun is in favor of post- poning the Democratic National Convention until late in August or even September. One advantage of this plan would be that it would give the Sun time in which to present a larger assortment of candidates. Ir is rather early in the season for Presi- dential preferences, butin Mahoning County, Ohio,440 Republicans have put BLAINE in the lead as their first choice, with LINCOLN as their second choice. The precedent of the ‘Republican Conventions is that it is never the first choice who “gets there.” THE proposition of the Cable Street Rail- road Company to begin paying. taxes five ‘years aiter it is completed and then to pay as much astwoanda half per centof its gross receipts isa proof that corporations | have souls. A new corporation would bave | asked to be excused from taxation for ten | years and to pay, say, one-half of one per cent. é A a= od THe death of Mrs. F. W. PARAMORE, which occurred at an early hour this morn- ing, will cause something more than usual sorrow. As NELLIE HAZELTINE she hag been a great deal more than merely a belle in society. The whole city had a certain | sense of pride in her reputation and in her career, and the contrast between her brill- | iant life and her untimely death impresses | itself on all with painful pathos. THE Connellsville Coal and Coke Compa- ny will bear all, the funeral expenses of the miners killed by the explosion in the pit yes- terday. The pit was subject to eruptions of gas, and an explosion of the gas was sure death to alf within reach. To send men | down into such a mine isto give them the alternative of death by starvation or death by explosion, and when the latter alterna- tive comes, there is something ghastly in sug- gesting that the funeral is any compensation for the loss. Tue German immigration to this country last year was 195,000, enough to start a new city of the first-class, besides manning a brigade with stalwart soldiers. That is what makes BISMARCK 80 cross. He does not know how to stop this drain, and is trying to arouse among his people a national animos- ity against the United States, in which he will fail as signally as in his hog policy. He should have known that, if the American hog was not allowed te go tothe Germans, they would come to the American hog, No race of men can be robust, progressive and triumphant without plenty of sausage and bacon. —_—_—_—_—_— Our St. Louis delegation at Washington has apparently recovered from the effects of that painful little episode whereby the war- horses of the city were sent to the rear, and the Cracker Neck Democracy of the State Committee placedinthe van. But to those who look beneath the surface there is a deep and abiding significance in the incident. Re- publics are ungrateful, and it now looks as ifour State Commitieeman, Col. J. Grir. PRATHER, who has been for four years as a strong tower of Democracy in his high posi- tion, would be stricken down in his hour of | Empire, | country. with appalling loss of life as if swept away by tremendous batteries of artillery. The list of persons ‘already reported killed or mortally injured exceeds a hundred, and there is reason to fear that the half has not been told, as the track of desolation is for the most part distant from railroads and telegraphs. penne ee THE RIGHTS OF THE PUBLIC. Recently, when the Edison Electric Light Company was admitted into Berlin, the Ger- man Government not only imposed on it a number of conditions carefully protecting the private rights of person and property, but limited the charges and profits of the company, exacted a percentage of its receipts as a contribution to the public treasury, and, in addition to all this, stipulated that the company’s entire plant should become the property of the municipality of Berliz at the end of thirty years, In London the exercise of every privilege the gas companies have is subject to Parlia- mentary supervision and regulation. Both their charges and their dividends are regu- lated by the Legislature, and the dividends are 80 limited that they can be in- creased only as the charges are reduced. When the London Gas Light and Coke Com- pany recently asked permission from the municipality to absorb the South Metropoli- tan Gas Company, the London Metropolitan Board of Works objected on the ground that the tariffs of the latter company “embody the latest expression of the views of Parlia- ment” on the subject, and, without some provision applying these to the increased profits of the consolidation for the benefit of the public, it should not be sanctioned. As the people’s chosen representatives in National, State and’ Municipal Legislatures are continually besieged for grants of profit- able franchises to corporations anxious to serve the public, we commend to their no- tice these examples of fidelity to a public trust. It is not pleasant to contrast such careful protection of popular rights and interests with the loose and lavish grants by which the people are victimized and fleeced to fatten rings in this country. In those old countries where the rulers are as free to regulate railroad charges as those of hackmen or other common carriers, they need not be so particular in their grants, because they are as free to un- do as to Go a wrong to the people. But here, where we are s0 squeamish about vested rights and “government interference with the private business affairs of corpora- tions,” we need to be doubly careful in our dealings with them. Wecan putthe public at the mercy of privileged corporations, but the moment there is an appeal for public relief to courts or legislatures, we are met with Dartmouth College decisions and howls about “Centralizatioa and Communism.” BISMARCK’S IDEA, At lasi we have tue explanation of Bis- MARCK’S return of the resolutions on the death of LAsKkER. He cannot deliver the resolutions to His August Majesty the Em- | peror, because they contain sentiments not in accordance with the sentiments of His August Majesty the Emperor regarding the object and effect of LAsKER’s political ac- tivity. The voice is BismMARcK’s, but in senti- ment and purpose, the Chancellor and his master are one. They speak for the German and they declare that any states- man who speaks for the cause of the people in Germany, who refuses to be bound by the | despotic and paternal views of the old Em- _peror, must be treatedas an enemy after deathas well as during life; that he shall not even receive the honor of an expression of appreciation from a friendly nation. We used to have some pretty narrow- minded and proseriptive tyrants in this During the days of test-oaths, re- construction laws and carpet-bagging our Republican rulers showed an ingenuity in petty persecution and a malice in their pol- icy which astounded fair-minded Americans. But in the attempt to play the tyrant they fellfar behind the reai article, and, com- pared with the bigoted and intolerant Bis- MARCK and WILHELM, they now wear the aspect of cheap imitations. ES TR RE NE ERO mR BAGGAGEMEN’S CONVENTION. The news that the railroad baggage agents of the United States are holding a conven- tion in St. Louis naturally attracts universal interest. Every one has traveled more or less, and everyone who has traveled has had his trunk smashed, but no one has ever been able to find the man who did it. 1t was, ac- cordingly, with curiosity not unmixed with awe, that the people of St. Louis heard that the baggage agents had had the boldness to hold a convention, _ The proceedings are carried on with closed doors, not through any apprehension that the public would storm the hall, butin ac- cordance with that traditional poliey which throws the veil of mystery over the proceed- ings of the baggage smashers. There are, however, no secrets from the modern press, and our account of the programme and pro- ceedings may be relied on as correct. The proceedings do not differ from those of other learned bodies. There was @ paper read by an oldmember on “Baggage Smash- ingin the Olden Time,” and an essay by a - triumph, and his honors awarded to some obscure and, probably, envious rarai rival in statesmanship. This is the meaning we read in the triumph of the State Central Committee. —_—_—_—_—_—_—_—_—— Tur great cyclone which came out of the Gulf of Mexico iike & sea-born monster and swept aver Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina the other day appears to have been the most terrible thing of the kind that has ever struck this country, After reaching Georgia it split in two, and each branch, taking a course apart {rom the other, proved es i?

This, the author showed, was due to the defective process of dropping the trunk on its lower corners; the weakest spot is, of course, the upper corner at the back, and if gentle- men who handled baggage would be gareful to pile the Saratogas on top of the wagons and drop them on that corner failure was ai- most impossible, . | hie | There was a | ¥ a , 7 aS tite tO She . pa \ ea ae ae 4 - > Sats . ‘ ‘ * ean a ie or wo Wee te, Ss, ~ tate Se way Sorrow’s Crown of Sorrow.

A Family Buried Under an Ava- lanche in Nevada, -— — In Darkness and Terror for Three Days —The Work of Rescue, Carson Appeal, February 6. Last evening, John Engelbright, who reach- ed the city from Woodford’s station brought the news of a gallaut rescue ofa family of six persons found under a snow slide in oodford’s Canyon. The scene of the snow slide was the old deserted shingle mill about a half a mile above Merk’s toll-house, and two wiles above Woodford’s Station. Wood- ford’s Canyon is a deep and picturesque gorge in the meuntains, five’or six miles lung, and leads into Hope Valley. Inthe fall of last year a family, consisting of a mam aud his wife and four children, came over the moun- tains and camped at the old shingle mill in the canyon. hey had plenty of provisions, and the head @f the family spent most of his time in hunting and fishing. They took possession of a rude building on the left, which had been used to store feed and stable horses when the mill was running vears ago. The season was very late, and though repeat- ediy warned by Mr. Merk, the toll-gate keeper, the family, deceived by the pleasant weather continued to remain. After the first snow the man, Whose name was Max- well, came dgwn to Woodford’s and made arrangements to have two horses taken care of during the winter, He said he had no money to pay for the feed at the time, but would redeem them in the spring. He also said that he had made up his mind to winter in the canyon, as he had provisions and game was abundant, He was advised not to take the risks, but he said the place he was in was a strong structure, and as it had given evidence of standing a good many winters, he wouldrigsk it. - On Thursday last there was a heavy fall of snow in the eanyon, followed 7 a sunny day on Friday. During the day there were several large slides of snow from the rocks, which rise onthe sides of the Canoyn ; In some instances as high as three hundred feet. Heayy bodys of snow toppled over from these heights, andin their descent carried away large masses of rock, which felled tne pines at the bottom of the gorge. During the night Merk heard several of these slides, and the next day the road up to the canyon was choked with snow. On Sunday he went up to the shingle mill on snowshoes, and eng the piace occupied by the family had en BURIED UNDER THE SNOW. The slide had started on the steep moun- tain side about two hundred yards up the slope, and started a number of bowlders in its course. The track of the avalanche was marked with prostrated pines, and the mass of snow: upon the log structure lay packed hard to the depth of ten or_fifteen teet. Seeing he could do nothing, rk re- turned to Woodford’s and soon raised a force of a dozen or twenty men, whe went up with shovels and picks aud other appliances necessary to ellect a rescue. ‘The snow was packed so hard that it was almost like solid rock and required picks wielded by stout hands to loosen it. By night they had reached the logs which form- ed part of the stabie, ana found that she roof had been crushed in by a bowlder. By this time the foree had been augmented, and, building a rousing fire in the snow, the worked in four shifts of six men each, eac shift working an hour. Woodford’s Station Was drawn on for supplies, and with plenty of food and stimulants the men kept to their work steadily. During a portion of the time two shifts worked at separate places. SIGNS OF LIFE, At a little before 11 o’clock the work- men cieared away a place where they reach- ed one cf the logs which formed a portion ot the wall of the stable. They hammered on this with ap ax, and waited foran auswer- ing knock. While they waited and listened with intense interest, one of them vowed that he could hear faint taps from within, but the others doubted. The log was again struck with the ax, and this time there came several distinct knocks, and the out- siders broke into a cheer that made the old canyon ring. By midnight they had cut through the log, but it was hard work, as the snow wasspacked close about dit, and the hole made was not overa few inches wide at the lowerend. When the edge of the axes went through they ealled at the aperature, and was auswered by a voice, ‘‘For God’s sake, push in something to eat; my children are dying.” Ina moment bread, meat and a small flask of brandy ware pushed through the aperture, and the wearied toilers in the snow sprang tothe work and made a fresh attack upon the log which imprisoned six people. ‘They cleared away the snow several feet above, and it was 3 o’clock in the morning before they cut through the log, about six feet above the first cut. Then cale a fear that the place between the two cuts would fail inward and crush the family. The second hole, however, gave a_ better chance of communication, and Maxwell said that if they would get a candlein to him he would tell where the log would fail. A ean- die was taken froma lantern and given to him, with matches tied=to it. In a few moments the glow of a light was seen from the outside, and this light must have been very welcome to the Maxwell famiiy, as they had been in total darkness since Friday night when the av ie struck the stable. He soon Called o ~) push the log inward, but it was fasta. Aequired considerable prying with crowbay /before it yielded. ERRIBLE SIGHT. Those nearest the aperture followed the log aud climbed in through the opening with lanterus, ‘Therein a space about ten feet square, was Maxwell and his family, His wife was lying on a mattress and some blankets, with a young childin her arms, and three others elinging to her and crying bitterly. When the jantern shone on their faces they put their hands to their eyes and turned away in fear. The weman was hardly able to move, and Maxwell, who had kept a stout heart through all the long days and nights of darkness, gave out at this point and cried like a child. , Chester, the oldest boy, who is but eight years of age, had worked with his father to get out, and Was worn out with hunger and exhaustion. There were two loaves of bread within reach after the roof of the stable fel! in, and the little fellow refused to touecha morsel, giving all to his mother and sisters. This was all the mother, the baby and the two daughters—Mary and Uallie—aged four and six years, respectively, had to live on from Friday afternoon, when they took din- ner, untilabout midnight on Sunday. There was plenty of flour and some game on the place, but the logs of the roof, which were crushed in, eut off all communieation from these, although Maxwell and his son had vain- ly endaavere to cut a Way through three-foot log with a jack-knife. The inmates of the terrible prison-house Were taken in sleighs to Woodford’s, where they were soon as comfortable as warm fires, good provisions and kind attention could make them, When W oodford’g, on Mon- day aftertfoon, they were,all doing well, and were the recipients of allfthe attention that the little eamp could bestow.

A Group of Them As Seen Through Gath’s Spectacles. Correspondence of the Cincinnati Engutrer. ma COCKRELL. munds took the seat in a few minutes, bald-headed and of a peculiar cranial forma- tion certainly not of ioity and god-like shape, but rather on the line of Calvin, or some of the martyr-twisters two or three hundred years ago. Thos he has been com- ared to St. Jerome, somewhat because he ooks like a certain picture of St. Jerome, but more because he is of that old theologi- cal type and has been perverted into politics and statesmanahip, rather than occupying his normal piace in polemics and hair-split- ting. However, heisaclean, experienced, accomplished man, andit is little of a re- flection upon him that every body ealis Cock- rellof Missouri the Edmunds of the Demo- cratic side. | looked down at Cockrell, who seemed to be a substantial farmer with a re- speetiul countenance, but not much apparent magnificence in his endowment, and said I: “Why do you call him the Edmunds of the Senate ?”’ Because,” said my young tutor, “‘he is al- waysou the watch lest some job or bill should go through.’’ RIDDLEBERGER. The first man 1 obseryed was young Rid- dleberger, frdm Virginia. 1 had expected to see for him a very tail and middle-aged, slab-sided, swinging-armed man. On the contrary, [ beheld a genteel, rather blushing young man, lithe than tall, sophomerie, and somewhat handseme, dressed ina neat suit of blaek, and who might have passed for the son of some other Senator. Said I: “That is the man who foughta duel some time ago while running for office?” “Yes,” said my instructor, "the did snap cap er something of that kind with a political opponent, ‘They say he is a fine speaker on the stump; but he is going to have hard work here to get in his stump oratory. They all subside after they reach the Senate, because there is so little of the contagion of genius in this body that after atime akind of co@l chill falls over them, the result of their own mediocrity, like skimmed milk on a freezing day.” MAHONE. Then came in Manone, a kind of a queer, gray weasel of aman with the suggestion of a skeleton about bim and a borrowed beard; some suca man as the Flying Dutch- man might have mustered it bis wizard crew under the orders to sail on foreyer., His eyes were without either enjoyment or re- pose, but seemed to ke on the watch like some of the simailer quadrupeds whieh are born old and seem to pet gray in their infan- ey. This little forked witch of a man glided to his seat as if he were about to take com- mand of the Flying Dutchman and steer on for another century. I looked at him witha eit of shudder, and it seemed a romance of many hundred years ago, since he had com- manded a great division of the rebel army and been suggested by Gen. Lee to succeed in its command. “HAMBURG” BUTLER. Butler, who came to Washington undera cloud of dislike from the North, has, by quiet intercourse, a seldom-asserted menta and secial strength and a genial, willing hold on the instrumentalities feunc among his opponents, becoine one of respected men in the Senate. I obs ‘ with some Bterest There is but little of | distinctive§ Southerner in his countenance aad I believe that he is deseended from Com. Perry, of Rhode Isiand. He is eighteen years younger than Hampten, who commanded him during the war. ‘The news- paper writers say that they ind him genial, and that the only subject he has ever shown any temper about in priyate is the Hamburg negro afiray. Butier is one of the best men in the Senate. His complexion is rather brown, and his skin ofa soft, almost pale, tint. He walks over to the Repubiican side and sits ameug the Northern men, and pres- ently we see bim and them laughing to- gether. Itis always agreeable to discoyer in one’s opponents good, natural and human traits, and on such men as this the future of the South must hang. My reeoliection is that Mr. Butler, even under the carpet-bag ruie in South Carolina, was a rather recipro- cal map. AN ALASKA PILGRIM. News from as Near the North Pole as One Usually Goes on Business Bent. From the Montreal Star. Mr. Franeois Mereier has lately returned to Montreal from the most northern disirict of Alaska, near Behring Straits. He has there been empleyed in the fur trade un tlie Youkon river tor the last sixteen years, and was the first American or Canadian to ar- rive there after the sale of Alaska by Russia to the United States. Mr. Mercier speaks the Esqguiniaux language fluently. as also several other Indian dialecis used by the natives of the Arctie regions, and relates several interesting items as to the country in general. An idea of the cold experienced there may be formed from the feliowing thermometrical observations: On the ist December, 1882, the minimum during the day was 50° below (Fahrenheit) and the maxi- mum 29° below zero. Taking the whole month together, the minimum was 63° below zero and the maximum 55°. ‘The winter lasts about eight months, while the four summer months are maguificent weather, the only drawback being the plague of mosquitoes thai literally blaeken the air during the long unbroken day lasting many months. Ducks, geuse, swabs, elc., begin to arrive about the end of April and lay thousands of eggs on the banks andislands in jhe rivers, These are mucn sought after by the natives and are excellent eating; in fa Mr. Mer- cier says there is no lack of food of all sorts. For sports there are reindeer, moose, black aud brown bear in theinterior and white bear on the coast, with salmon in the larger rivers and troutinthe streams, The Hsquimaux dogs, Which are the draught animals of the eountry, are mostly fed ou these fish when dried. Mr. Merejer has not a very high opinion of the noble red man of the Norta, but considers them a lazy, idle lot, most in- veterate beggars and full of superstition. Astophis opinion of an expedition ever reaching the North Pole, he thinks it never can be done without buildipg smail stations en route, after quitting the ship for the ice, providing these sidtions with food, and all necessaries and leaving them in charge of small parties; by this means Only will the expedition be enabled to advance and setire when necessary, taking advantage of some winter milder than usual, and thus push on for the pole, No yessel can prossen much further than 79° latitude and this leaves 11 to be got over of frozen snow and ice.

Adolph Boeckler, a young man 9f abont 35 years, with an interesting wife and family, has, for the past five years, been eity salesman for H, D. Eggers & Co., millers at the corner of Kighth street and Clark avenue, Having the entire con- fidence of the firm, he was permitted to make col- leetions from the firms to whom he sold. For several months pas} Mr, Eggers has noticed that some of hig customers, who fermerly were very prompt, were very slow about paying their bills. He suspegted nothing, how- ever, until last Saturday, when an incident oc curred which had the effecs of the explosion of g bombshell, One of the old customers calied to get a few barrels of flour, and when gbout starting away remarked that, having paid for two little lots he got in the morn- ing, be guessed he’d pay for this last load, and be square with the firm. After he had gone, the book-keeper noticed that there were no credits on the two lots sold in the morning, and he called Mr, Eggers’ attention to it, Mr, EGGERS AT ONCE BECAME VERY ANXIOUS, and late that night he went to the house of the customer and questioned bun, The letter stated that he had paid Boeekler for both lots of flour in the morning, and with his suspi- cions greatly ipereased Mr. Eggers called on Boeckler and asked him for an explanation. Boeckler at once broke down jand acknowledged that for the past two years he baidG@ been systematically embezzling his empleyer’s money. He did not know how mueh he had taken but would try to give a list of his steals on Monday. He kept his word in'so far as to furnish a list of items amounting to §4,539, and, being pressed to tell what he bad dong with the money, said he had beer living of a scale beyond the limits of his salary, which was a very liheral one. He denied having spent money in any other way, and begged for lemtent treatment. Mr. Eggers had the case under investi- gation §«6©and@6=6ldeeline@g «= t0 8=6gay)0=6what he would do. This morning he failed to put in an appearance and nothing has been learned as to whether he has left the city or not. His method was to collect @ bill, keep the money, and represent at the offlee Sthat the debtor was unabie to pay because of needing his money to meeta noie or something of tnat kind. After a month or two he collected money elsewhere and credited it on the other steai, The investigations have already discovered $600 not reported by him, and the total will probably reach $6,000.
