Poetry. time the water in the boiler was hot, and by pouring several bucketfuls down the pumps we thawed them sufficiently so as to enable us to keep the water from gaiidug, and never did men use their strength with more energy than we did on tint occasion. It was evident tin-1 wecould not last long at the work, but fortunately juit then the engineers reported ste tin up, by which additional aid we were enabled to keep her afloat. On the moruing of the Kith we found our position a few miles north of Littletou Inland, in Smith's Ktralt.i. We had drifted abreast of .Sunderland Island, at the end of Baffin's Hay, during the night. The gale had then subsided, and it was shortly afterwards quite calm. We looked from the masthead of our vessel for our companions on the floe, but could nol see anything?of them whatever. The current must have taken them in a different direction from the course the wind took us. About noon r. breeze sprung up from the north, and opening a lead in-shore to the east the vessel at this time begau drifting out of the straits again. By the aid of steom and sail I took advantage of the lead when Opened wide enough to admit me, and ran the vessel as near shore a* the ice would admit an.! made fast with lints to heavy giou ided hummocks. Here we were at,round at low water, there being nine feet rise of fide at this place, which happened to be Kane's Lifeboat Cove, lat. 23fr N., long, 7.'l deg. 21 W. We kept an anxious look-out all the time from ihe masthead of our vessel for of the party, but the sliarpsst eyes on shi.D- board failed toseeuu lit of theui. As, however, they had the boats, even iC tha little scow, we were in hopes ihey would possibly be abl? yet to cake f Dr us. On the 17ih, I surveyed the ship, and found the stem entirely broken oil' below (lie six-foot mark. I called the officer's atfc-i.tlon to It, who only wondered she had kept afloat so long. I therefore considered the Polaris a losi, vessel, and immediately made preparations for leaving her, and living on shore during the winter, getting our spare sails, coals, and provisions on shore. We were acsisteed in th 13 by tl.e Etah Esquimaux, who came to us the day after we got ashore. When these Exquimaux hove in sight, gesticuln'lng and hallooing with great appare.it glee, we to k them to lie our ••istaways, ar.i! immediately cheered ,os« heartily i re'urn. We put up a house 011 or?, which was superintended by) r. Chester: those oot engaged iu building it, being occupied getting provisions and fuel which they did with a great deal of difficulty, us they had to leap from one piece of detached rock to another all the way to the shore. Often some of the party would tumble thiough flssu es and get wet which was a great inc ivenlence, considering the insufficient supplyofclolhii-g furbished foi change. On the morningof the21st. we had a number of Esquimaux visitors. They came in live sledges, and kindly went io worl: to assist us, proving of excellent service. In a short,-time we had all ihe |KDrtable articles from the ship onshore, f made 1 hem s'ich presents as our scanty stock would permit— mainly needles (harpoon*.) with which they expressed the: selves well pleaded. It was fortunate I hat with other articles out on the Coo were a number of ihose Indispensible arliele3 to .111 Esquimaux — a quantity of knis,.'»D On theliith Ihsy left u- ior Etali, we having completed our work for abandoning the vessel. A.Op. in. we stopped the steam pumps to let her till and bid farewell to the little Polaris, whicn had penelraled tl fouj-li dangers and hard ( ock« to a high latitude, but was destined nol lo return wi'li the honors she had gained. During the remainder of Ihe month we were visited by natives—men, won en, and children. 1 sent a party to Mc Garry's Island in search of Dr. Hayes' boat and provisions, but could discover no sign of her. I was afterward informed by tlic littives ihat a parly from Wepl laud found h i 5 years ago, ti'd appropriated to their own use what was serviceable to them; lit l*oai they discovered lo be worthless and full of holes. Ar high water il.e lower decks if ihe Polaris were covered the walei rising within three feel of the upper deck, the ves'el beingtirm on ihe I was In hopes she would remain in that posiliou, as we bad to gel fuel from liei and material Tor making our boats for our Summer journey South. We sp'Mlt tiie Winter mouths if November," December and January in household duties— —geltii.g lee for melting purposes, supplying galley and  wiili coal, and keeping p issagi-wayrt lo and from the house free fr ini snow. A great many foxes were shot. We were visited i onlinunlly by Ihe nitives who were suffering a grea: deal from cold and hunger. Several of the families made their residence with us for most of the Winter, building snow huts for themselves where they slept. We supplied Iheiu with a share of the provisions we hod, out si ill they had to kill a greai ni: ny of (heir d.gs in order to give their children fresh meat. Two famllieCin particular reduced their I earn of dogs to one and another family to two. Some of our people had rllghf attacks of scurvy, principally 'n the sums ; bu. In general the be ilh of our paity remained good. T ? month of February brought I'S daylight. Ou the 15tli the sun was seen for the first time since Its dise ipearoiice on the loth of Nov ember. We had now to consume the bowsprit, masis and rigging for fuel, these fortunately having been landed. The only material for building boats was the celling of the alley-way—the bouse on «'e« k being used as fl. Thefoilowi g months were occupied In buiidir boats for our jou 'iiey. Shooting | lies went out occasionally, bu:, with f e exception of a few hnres, generally returned unsuccessful. There was one d«er killed during tiie eeusoj, but a great many were seeu. Although the natives had left us some time for their respective settlements and hunting-grounds, they still, however, eontimied to visit us, and, as if to remind us of our former kindness to them, which they appeared to have appreciated, kept bringing to us quantities of walrus liver, which made a great improvement in the health of our party. I had suitable bags made out of the foresail, aud filled them with provisions for our Journey. I also bull! a small boat out of some spare lumber for the Elah natives, which will be a great acquisition to them In sealing and getting eggs from the islands. By the 28th of May all our preparations were made. I must compliment Mr, Chester, who superintended the building of these boats. They are creditable scows-1- far better structures than i thought could have been made out of the material we had. They are flat bottomed and carry considerable weight. The open water was by this time nearly up to our house. Our provisions and what limited clothing we were to take with us down to the water's edge lo be in readiness for embarkatio i. There still remained with us two native families, and during the winter and spring we were visited by nearly all the natives from Etali to Cape York. There were during this time three deaths and one binh among the natives. One of the the former wa« Myonk, who was one of the first to v -it us after our vessel got on shore. INVITATIONS Brick yard.

HONU, Oregon. Oil Ihe morning of the 22d of June, at 4 n. in., the look-out from the "crow's nest" reported thai a party, supposed to be Esquimaux, were making their way over the pack ice towatd the ship. At this time they were a long way distant, proba'jly, 13 or 14 miles, and appeared lo move very slowly. By 0 a. m. the strangers hail advanced a mile or two nearer, and enrne to a halt. We could then just make out that they were not Esquimaux, and could distinguish two boats, eaeli of which displayed a small flag on a pole, but owing to the distance and refraction it was almost impossible to make this out with certainty. However, concluding they had seen us, our ensign was hoisted as a reply signal, and is picked men were sent off" lo render any assistance required, while the strangers were observed to detach two of their number in the direction of the vessel. When these met our party the whole proceeded on waul to the boats, and a messenger was sent back to inform us of the news. At 5 p. in. the entire lot started for the ship, and some idea of the difficult of traveling over such Ice may be formed from the facl that it was 12 midnight before they got on board, having been nearly seven hours in traversing a distance of about 12 miles. This arose from the soft and slushy state of the deep snow covering the ice, while myriads of liugh hummocks weie piled and heaped everywhere over ,he surface, which was also much snlit and full of treacherous boles, into which many a flounder 100k place. The party on reaching the ship we'e made heartily welcome, and as comforiable as the means at our command could possibly apply. They appeared lired and wealher-beaten, but in good health nnd high spirits at having fallen in with a "Scotch whaler," for which vessels they were on the lookout, their commander knowing (he being once in the trade himself) that about this time whaler passed through Melville Bey. The parly were delighted to hear from us of the safely of their comrades, from whom they parted (adrift on an icefloe) last October. They never expected to hear from them more, and were much surprised at their miraculous escape from what apjieared a lingering if not a speedy death. It was doubtless, also, a truly providential circumstance that placed the Itaveuscraig in a position to pick this party of castaways up. Had such not happened, it is highly probable that, none of them would have ever reached the Danish settlements, when we consider their resources as regards food, the stale of their boats, and the impracticability of the traveling on foot—a distance of a1 1 -asl 30iJ miles—over such treacherous ice as then covereil the expanse of Melville Bay. Only about six days' pronisions were left, although divided with ihe utmost economy ; and, even with plenty of ammunition and arms, stiflicieni food could not in all probability have been obtained to support fourteen men during a long and toilsome march. Bears, seals, and birds are scarcely to be got al. Dr. Kane, on the same track, had the utmost difficulty in shooting two seals, while he had the invaluabl aid of a trained hunter, also two good boats, and open water along the floe edge; but the boats of Ihe Polari's crew both got stove as soon as Ihey goi, entangled in the Melville Bay pack. The first portion of their voyage had been performed in open water for the most part, so that their greatest difficulties were only begun when we sighted them. Moreover, the rest of tho journey must have been attempted without shelter of any kind—in fact, they were totally unprepared, both as regards boots and clothing, for such an arduous unde taking. gTEAM TftADt The current l«8.s waters are de:C and * till— Hut Dhe light wind plays with the boat at will, And lfD2ilv In and out agrtln No. 7 North Main Street, Jt flon',8the length of the r.isi.V chain, P1TTSTON, PittUon April 18, 1872.

About si* hours afterward he took delirium, and continued in this condition for tlireodays. On recovering his senses, however, he grew better, got up, and wrote up his journal. He also attended to his other duties as if he had been in his usual health, but he never went out. Iu about ten days afterwards he was again seized, and got worse and worse until the night of the 7lh, when he became calm. Seeing I)r.

Hall was taken seriously ill, and Dr. Bessel said his disease was apoplexy. For two wee!;« he continued in JUad health, but now and again he would rally and appear well, and then relapse suddenly. On the morning of the 8th he died, and on the 10th we buried him half a mile lo the south of the Observatory. We were uow in a peculiarly embarrassing condition, but 1 considered it still our duty to press toward the North Pole, in consequents of some little differences wlttali had occurred before Cap . Hall's death, as well as f.om the novel position in which we now found ourselves, the harmony which had previously prevailed was now more ihan once seriously broken. On the 13th November, Dr. Bessel drew up a paper, and he asked me to sign it which I did. It was a repetition ofthe instructions given by the Naval Department to Capt, Hall, providing that I should oonlini'e as the sall'ngand lce-mns'er, and control and direct the ircver.ients of the vessel.
