Just as we turned from our nearest point of approach we fired a cannon to stir the echoes among the hills, and give notice of our presence in case anybody was near to | listen. Next morning, steaming ahead once more to the end of our water line, we were rejoiced to find that though there was now about eight or ten miles of ice separating us from the shore, it as less firmly packed, and our little vessel made a way through it without difficulty, until we were within two miles of the shore, when we found the e: y ‘hard and wyilzed close! the beach, now plainly in sight, tempted us to continue the struggle, and with the throttle thrown wide open the barrier was forced, and by ten o'clock a.m. the Corwin was riding at anchor less t! a cable's length froma dry gravel bar, stretching in front of the mouth of a river. The lons battle we had fought with the ice was fairly won, and neither the engine nor the hull of the ship seemed to have suffered any appreciable damage from the terrible shocksand strains it had undergone. Going inland, along the left bank of the river, we found it much larger than it at first appeared There was no snow left on the lowlands or any of the hills or mountains in sight, ex- cepting the remnants of heavy drifts: neverthe- less, it was still about seventy-five yards wide, twelve feet deep, and was flowing’ on with a clear, stately current, at_a speed of about three miles an hour. While the snow is melting it must be at least two hundred yards wide and twenty t deep, and its sources must lie well back in the interior of the countr, Not the s st trace, however, could we find along the river, along the shore or on the bluff to the northwestward of the Jeannette party or of any human inhabitant. A land more severely solitary could hardly be found any- where on the face of the globe. The beach was well tracked with polar bears, but none of the party could discover any sign of reindeer or musk oxen, thouch the country seems to abound in the kind of food they require. -A single fox track was observed, and some of the burrows of & species of marmot, also a few birds and about twenty species of plants, most of them in bloom. ‘The rock is clay slate, which weathers smoothly, and is covered with a sparse growth of mosses, lichen and flowering plants, not unlike that of the adjacent coasts of Siberia and Alaska. ee The Game of Lacrosse. Brainard G. Smith, in Harper's Young People. Lacrosse is becoming very popular among the young men and lads of the United States, and very properly. too, for it is a fine zame, and one at is thorouzhly American. Years ago, how ny no one knows, it was played by American who called it ata Basil Haft, Catlin and Lanman, who have written some of the best books about Indians, tell how the Creeks of Alabama, the Cherokees of North Carolina, and other tribes played the game ago, and their accounts show that then it fierce, hard game to pla which the displayed wonderful skill a . and where broken boi rare thing, “But,” says one w “there never appears to b spite or wantor = exertion of strenzth to affect them, nor no di putes ever appen between the parties.” These should be printed i re lett y be easily read by all boys nowa- ay lacr In those days the th ntific one that it is now. a matter of brute strength, and sometimes as many as 600, S00 and even 1,060, players took part. “The Canadian Indis to have invented the present the French first saw them time oniy the Indians played Canadians took it up; and fi ane was formal: game of Ca to be the Toronto club of Toron- of Montreal.

Each side has a goal, designated by the color of the flag. These goais may be any distance apart, just as the players decide. Now the great thing to do is for one side to throw the ball through the goal of the other side. At the end of the play, the side haying thus made the most goals is the winner. By throwing it is not meant that the ball is thrown with the hands, as in base ball. The ball is never to be touched by the hands. All the work is done with the crosse,which is made of a frame 8 of rawhide or catgut. This has a long handle. crosse the ball is ¢: it. carried and So expert do some. players become will throw the ball straizht aad swiftly from goal to goal. Mr. Lally, of the Shamrock club, is able to throw the ball 450 feet. The ball is of India rul sponge, not less than eight hor more than nine i in cireumference. s the same is now played, 12 players are on each side, placed according tothe best judg- ment of their captains for working the bail to- wards the opposite goal, or keeping it from going through their own goal. All the play, the running, dodying, leaping, twisting. thro i is simply to get the bail through the goal. ‘This part of it is easily learned. Of course it requires practice to enable one to handle the crosse well. But any active lad can soon get ang of that, and once learned, it is doubt- ful if he will give up lacrosse for base ball, when its broken finzers and sprained thumbs, or for with its kicked shins and sometimes lacrosse i8 no gris’ play. There is suffi- cient hard work and danger to make it quite exciting enough for anybody; but there is not much danger of a player getting maimed for life, as has often happened in these other games. | There are no spiked shoes worn,no wrestling,no holding, ne intentional tripping, no striking.” It is simply a zame of agility and endurance. To be a good player one ble to run well and fo run long. It is remarkable what speed | and endurance some of the players possess. T | have these they must take good care of health, and good layers are careful seldom or never to touch tobacco or strong drink, nor to eat unwholesome food at unnatu- rai hours. There have been games of lacrosse that were History tells of one that ended ina fearful tragedy. It was played over one hundred s in 1765. One of the British chain of forts the north was Fort Michili- makinac. On the 4th of June, 1763, it was gar- ed by 35 soldiers, and contained about 90 were celebrating the day. There had been ors that the Ojibway Indians had conspired with Pontiac, the great chief, to capture the fort, but Captain Etherington, the commandant, paid ne attention tothem. So, when on this day the Ojibways sent an invitation to the fort to see a grand game of “baggataway,” lacrosse, between them and the Sac: piain in front of the fort, the soldiers gis accepted. “The gates were open wide,” says W. C. Beers, in his account of the game; soldiers were lying and standing about in groups, the majority without arms. Capt. Etherington and Lieut. Leslie stood close by the gate bet- ting on the game. A large number of squaws Were collected near the fort. Then the game bean. The players, nearly nak yelling, with leaps and dashes, chased and fought for the ball, kicking, wrestling. rolling over “ other. The spectators roared witif laughter. No one thought of anything but the game. But slowly the bail ed the Once or twice it shot into the the pickets, and was thro ually the great bey of players neared the fort. «all playing wit mizht and main.

A Hunt in the Mountains for Bears, and What Came of 1t—A Kentuckian Shot in the Arm. From the Louisvile Courier-Journal. Mr. George Daniel, of Lexington, Ky., arrived in this city yesterday morning, on his way home, after spending three months in New Mexico and other territories and states in the far west. Mr. Daniel is in excellent health, and, save an arm, which he carries in a sling, he is physicaliy much better than before. A reporter of the Courier-Journal met Mr. Daniel in the office of the Louisville Hotel yesterday afternoon, and, after a few minutes’ conversation about his trip, asked him about his arm. “This arm, as you see,” replied Mr. Daniel, ‘is badly broken and somewhat torn up, and there is quite an adven- ture connected with the time in which it was broken, and if you would like to hear it I will tell you about it.” The reporter expressed his willingness to hear the incident, and, after light- ing a cigar. he commence “Thad been in Denver City for some time, and I thought I would take a run down into New Mexico, and started in a few days. The traveling was very slow, and it took up consid- erable amount of time to reach Santa Fe, where I proposed to stop fora week or two. I had | been in the city fora few weeks, when some gentlemen whom I knew proposed that we take atrip to the mountains, which lay to the west of the city, and have a good hunt. I accepted the proposition immediately, and the next morning we made up a party of five, and getting | into an old fashioned emigrant wagon we started, after supplying ourselves with enough to eat on the way and some tolerably fair whisky, which we were fortunate enough to procure. We were in no particular hurry to arrive at our destination, and managed to spend about two days on the route camping out at night and having a generally good time. I had been in- formed we could find some bear in the moun- tains if we looked for them, and nothing would tisfy me but to look for them. My companions were not so large in their aims as I was, and were contented to hunt smaller game, but I had read so much about the fun of hunting bears in the mountains that nothing else would do me, 8o we started out about three o'clock one after- noon to see what we could scare up. Our camp was at the foot of a tolerably high mountain, and on the north side was some very broken ground, covered with a scrubby growth of trees. At some places the undergrowth was so thick that it was with difficulty we could make our way through it, but Iwas looking forward with e Kentucky bloodthirstinessto the time when I should ‘tackle my tirst bear, and I did not mind torn clothes and scratched hands and face. After about an hour’s working we got into a short stretch of country where the undergrowth was somewhat thinner and the treesa little larger. Three of the party had gone around some distance from us and left mein company with Mannion, who had even less experience as ahunter thanI. We sat down together at the foot of a rather large sized tree, and haying a flask in my pocket, I proposed that we regale ourselves by taking a drink. We had been sit- it the foot of the tree for some time wait- r the rest of the party to come up. when by accident I cast my eyes up into the tree, and to surprise saw a beast whieh, at the first k r, but which turned out to be a small species of ‘the panther, which is ‘ound in several parts of the mountains. I instantly told mp companions to look up, and, after taking a look at the animal, which did not appear very azeressive, I took courage, and said 1 would kill it with my rifle. Mannion was in- clined to be a little more careful. and said that we had better get out from under the tree, as the beast mish jump on us. This was ver ce, and T got up very carefully so as hot to frighten it away, and, retiring to about two yards from the tree, cocked my rifle and took good aim, Mannion having agreed to ve his fire incase my builet did not take effect. After aiming for a considerable length of time. I fire and the bullet instead of striking the animal, struck the limb upon v it was sitting, aud the only effect it had was to make the animal jump out of the tree. Mannion saw the body coming down, and started to ran, but stopped when he ¢ about three yards off, and prepared to shoot. Meanwhile the animal struck the ground on all fours, and made a charge at me. Mannion thought this was the time to shoot, and such a thought as yping because I was directly be- teen him and the animal did not oceur to him, so he blazed away. and struck me in the arm, breaking it just above the elbow, where you see this bandage. The bullet was not stopped by my arm, however, but a by and struck the panther in the side of the ‘oulder, making a deep flesh wound. The ot had the effect, much to my joy, of causing the animal to turn around and run away. This tistied me with hunting for years, and we re- ned home the next day. L remained in Santa tw Fe for a few days longer, and thea started on ay iny journey to Kentucky. 1 arrived here last night from St. Louis, and in the future am will- ing to stay here.” —~—_—_+0--_____ Life in FL From the London Daily Times. It can hardly be matter for regret inthis coun- try that no great determination has occurred to- ward either the semi-gregarious life of flats or the wholly gregarious one of flats and boarding- houses. Where incomes are small, asin France, and servants are almost impossible to be ob- tained, as in the United States, one of these modes of existence may arise out of sheer ne- cessity. French life is largely leavened by a numerous and poorly paid bureaucracy. Until the recent introduction of tramways into such cities as Paris, it would have been im- possible for the clerk to live so far from his work as Englishmen of the same station find convenient. Nor would the French em- ployé care to carry home parecls from the city cd otherwise assist in carrying on the xchem $ Englishman does; but be this hitherto been accustomed to , and thus has become nsed to an “apartment” in piace of a house. Inthe United States the management of a small house- hold 1s made very dificult by exacting servants, who completely command the situation. In En nd communications are easy and good ser- nts may still be obtained. So far as they go. ‘e appear to be matters for congratulation, at least so far as rezards the bringing up of ildren. Privacy may or msy not be achieved according to the construction of the and customs of its inmates, but in hotel ‘ding-house life it is nearly impos- To transient dwellers in hotels this matters little, but the gregarious life when persisted in is found to have no favorable effect on children. They are taught, if not by word, yet by practice, to be always,as it were, underarms. They are always likely to be seen; and must thus always be neatly dressed andpre- sentable. Hence they beceme self-conscious to an almost painful degree. and acquire the art of living perpetually before an audience at a per- haps too tender age. _Self-possession is to most Enghsh minds dearly bought by the sacritice of the bloom and ingenuousness of childhood, and the majority of our parents and guardians would, we apprehend, be very loth to exchange the care of children for that of the little men and women who grow under the boarding-house | system, It is not a little remarkable that in New England, the most intellectual section of the United States, the same fondness for family housekeeping and good housewifery exists as in | this country. Perhaps the most agreeable feat- ure in the expansion of London is the increased facility it gives for the indulgence of the healthy sigantic barracks nearer the center of the town. ——————-0-______ T Have Seen A WELJ-DRESSED FRENCHMAN deliberately push a lady off one of the narrow sidewalks that abound in the older parts of Paris to make room for himself. Ihave heard another stylish-looking individual, with a red ribbon in his button-hole, peremptorily order an American lady at the opera who chanced to sit beside him to stop fanning, as her fan an- noyed him. I have seen during the slippery days of the past severe winters well-dressed iadtes slip and fall on the sidewalk of the Bout ; and never a hand would be ed out to assist them to rise by any of gant loungers or hurrying passers-by. As to what any pretty, stylish American girl is often called upon to endure in the streets of Paris, even when ckaperoned by @ partner or an eiderly attendant, in the way of being followed, and stared at, and instincts which prefer a cottage and a patch of | green to far more commodious lodgings in FASHION _WRINKLES NEW IDRAS. TRatys are sharply pointed. U:srers only come to the knee. Somk SuapEp Stirs are new. Costumes ALL Rep, including the hat, are worn. Tator made costumes are finished with rows of machine stitching. THE newest collars are round and made of ribbon two inches wide. Lance Alsatian bows of moire silk are now worn upon the head, to‘h by young andelderly ladies, the latter choosing black alone.

Tue Fatt STYLEs oF Goons displayed in the leading houses of Washington, advertised in to-day’s Star, are well worthy of a visit and purchase. Tue CLotns of the season are very attractive in the dark, solid colors and heather mixtures. They are used for complete suits—dress, muff, toque, hat and jacket.

New Suogsof silk velyet, for evening wear, are laced up the fronts with slender cords of gold or silver, and the toes are covered with embroid- ery worked in silver or gold thread. TuE new veils have large dots on the black net, which is very injurious to the eyes. If ladies will wear veils they should select those with smaller dots, though not of latest date. Comps are now worn where a coil is set low upon the nape of the neck. Ivory combs are ainong coiffure novelties and also silver circlets, which end in a star-like ornament at each end. PANTERS are very narrow and are drawn tight- ly over the side and disappear in the pouf, which itself is not voluminous. The basques of the coreee fall almost over the beginning of the pouf. Movse Jewenry ts fashionable. The little animal is wrought in silver and fastened in the folds of lace or silk ties. It is also popular for cuffs, made of bronze, Jet, pearl or light medal. A New Dress MATERIAL is in a blue, pink and cream satin, with twilled surface, embroidered in roses and half open buds, with leaves in silver with lines or threads of old gold to heighten the effect. Tus Iurration Laces have attained such a degree of perfection that they are accepted by all classes, and are used on the richest of cos- tumes. Every hand made lace is copied in the machine patterns, A New Fring used upon dressy costumes for evening has colored crystals resembling ame- thysts or sapphires, of the size of lima beans, attached singly as pendants to each pointed sec- tion of the fringe. Suirrs, reyers and plush insertions will be used this season to greater extent than ever be- fore, and with these forms of trimming EF: embroidery will come into use on groundit satin, silk and surah. A GREAT fancy exists just now for wicker chairs, which are either gilt or elze_ stained red, blue or any color. They have linen coyers’ with eretonie applique: sted tassels and pom- pons making tue trimming. Gray has reyiyed its popularity.

FATHERS as trimmings are a rage of the season almost to the exclusion of flowers, and the number massed upon one large hat is almost incredible. Five is the minimum; the maximum is reached only when the hat is covered. Trimmep skirts are of every possible effect and combination. In some cases the plain di en. between two and three yards in width, is ailthere is that may be called a model, the remainder of the skirt representing only garni- ture. Laces and guipures of all kinds—trish, Eng- lish, Venetian, Alencon, and Mechlin—will be in the greatest demand all the winter. Lace flounces and scarfs ave on nearly all ball di and costumes for all occasions are similarly adorned. Gros Graty, black satin and French kid make the handsome shoes and buttoned boots now worn. Tan-colored kid shves are very popular.

Co.Lans are the feature of new basques. ‘hey are either wide, shirred at the neck, or made by forming loops, lined with contrasting colors, or in the kerchef shape, much drawn up and ornamented.

SaTIN SLASHINGS are and will be much used for trimmings, not only with lusterless silks, but with woolen fabrics, for epaulets and for the fronts of waists and sleeves. Another favorite trimming is the Louis XV. bow, with its multi- tudinous loops, which combine admirably with lace, and which will be used as epaulets on the backs of dresses, on the pockets and at the throat. Tue WINTER WALKING Dress, par excellence, is of dark plush, and consists of a coat or half- fitting jacket and plain skirt, which clears the ground. It is simple in appearance, and obtains its distinction solely from the cost of mate- rial, which is from three to ten dollars per yard. Plain velvet suits are equally expensiv :, and are generally trimmed with satin. Correr Cotor is in great demand as a fash- jonable tiut. It is mixed with brown or black, and worn in walking dresses. It is used spar- ingly. Venetian red is another favorite color, and one that requires extreme care in combin- ing with other colors. Old gold and amber and lemon and cream are pretty colors for combin- ing with it for evening wear. OVERSKIRTS are much sought after this sea- son, as the revived use of plain silk for skirts makes it easy work to devise costumes of two or three varieties of material. The styles most liked are those which show some portion of the skirt, and are raised high upon one side. Scarf drapery, though long in use. is still very popu- lar. In some dresses such a drapery almost binds the figure. Tue HILpEGARDE, a graceful winter wrap, Is composed of brocade with raised plush flowers and leayes in dark olive-green upon a slightly lighter ground of uncut velvet.
