PROMPT MOLLOY. ‘The Juniata Overhauled by the Cabot and Brought Back. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. The following special despatch to the New ‘York Hzratp has been received from the British metropolis :— Lonpon, Sept. 19, 1873. Captain Sidney O. Buddington, sailing and ice-master of the unfortunate Polaris, and second in command to the Jate Captain Hall, the leader of the expedition, has made a state- ment since his arrival at Dundee, Scotland, relative to the separation from Captain Tyson's Party, and the subsequent experiences of his own party. The following are the main points of his statement :— CAPTAIN BUDDINGTON’S STATEMENT. In the middle of August, 1872, I resolved to abandon the expedition to the North Pole. Shortly after the Polaris began to drift south- ward. From contact with the ice she was leaking badly. On the 15th of October the leakage was so great that I had a large quan- tity of provisions put on the ice. THE SEPARATION. In the night a gale came up, and in a few minutes the ship had parted from her moor- ings, and at the same time the ice began to crack in all directions. Owing to the fury of the gale and the darkness of the night we could neither hear nor see the party on the ice. HARD WORK TO SAVE THEMSELVES. Indeed the situation on board was desperate in the extreme, and every effort was needed, shortened as we were of hands, to weather out tho night. We momentarily expected the Polaris would go down, and she was kept afloat only by the greatest exertions and un- tiring efforts. THE TYSON PARTY UNSEEN. We never saw the party on the ice after the storm separated us. SHATTERED CONDITION OF THE POLARIS. ‘On examination the following day we found the stem gone below the six-foot mark. We saw the impossibility of proceeding further, and ran in under the lee of Littleton Island. WINTERING AT LIVEBOAT COVE. We built hut on the main land at Life- boat Cove, and removed stores thither. Hero we remained for the winter. PREPARING FOR THE JOURNEY. During the winter two boats were built out of tho Polaris, and bags wére made out of the foresail and filled with provisions, under the superintendence of Mr. Hubbard C. Chester, tho chief mate, and started southward. LANDING AT NORTHUMBERLAND ISLAND. ‘After three unsuccessful attempts, on ac- count of the ice and heavy sea, we landed at Northumberland Island, and briefly rested. pee AT DALRYMPLE ISLAND, We then” ished on again, suforing great hardships, and subsequently landed ot Dal- rymple Island. ~ RESCUED. Again we took to the boats, and then, after gteat trials, had the good fortune to meet the Ravenscraig on the 22d of Jane. THE DIVIDED PARTY. ‘The steamer Arctic brought to Dundee ten members of the Polaris expedition, whose ames are as follows: — Captain Sidney 0. Buddington, sailing mas- tor. Dr. Emil Bessel, chief of tho selentific corps. Hubbard C. Chester, first mate. William Morton, second mate. Emil Schumann, chiof engineer. A, A. Odell, second engineer. W. F. Campbell, fireman. Herman Siemons, seaman. Henry Hobby, seaman. Noah Hayes, seaman. All are in excellent health. THREE OTHERS were transferred by the Ravgnseraig to the NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBEK 20, 1873—TRIPLE SHEET. whaler Intrepid, which is expected to arrive at Dundee in ‘two or three weeks. Their names are: — B. W. D. Bryan, astronomer and chaplain. Joseph B. Mauch, seaman. John W. Booth, fireman. A further statement from Dundee says that after the separation from Tyson and his com- panions, the Polaris was finally abandoned in ® sinking condition by Captain Buddington and the remainder of the expedition, The party WINTERED IN LIFEBOAT COVE, where they built a timber house which they: covered with sails. The winter passed without event, except the BREAKING OUT OF SCURVY, which, however, was unattended by severe symptoms. Plentiful supplies of walrus’ liver for food were obtained from the natives, and to this diot is attributed the mildness of the disease, In the spring, boats were BUILT OF THIN PINE BOARDS, taken from the cabin of the Polaris. On these the whole party embarked as soon as the ice opened, and sailed southward. On the 8d of June they sighted Cape York, and on the 22d of the same month were picked up by the Ravenscraig. - CHESTER’S GALLANTRY. Mr. Chester, the first mate, is regarded as the one who did the most to save the party, and the rescued men speak in the highest terms of his exertions. BEGRET FOR THE DEAD COMMANDER. They also say that Captain Hall enjoyed the confidence of every one, and his death, which ‘was unexpected, was deplored by all on board the Polaris, Dr. Emi] Bessel’s Despatch to Dr. Peter- mann—Great Hardships Endured and Great Dangers Passed. Gorna, Sept. 19, 1873, Dr. Petermann has received a private de- spatch from Dr. Emil Bessel, chief of the scientific corps of the Polaris, announcing his safe arrival, with nine others of the Polaris ex- Pedition, at Dundes. The despatch bricfly states that the party experienced great hard- ships and had narrow escapes from destruc- tion before they were rescued by the Ravens- craig. The Juniata Overtaken by Consul Molloy in the Steamer Cabot—Her Return to St. Johns. Sr. Jonns, N. F., Sept. 19, 1873. Pursuant to orders from Washington the United States steamer Juniata, having coaled, sailed north yesterday morning to continue the search Yor the Polaris crew. THE COURSE. The Juniata headed for Cumberland Sound, intending, with all rapidity possible, to visit any other northern points where there was a prospect of meeting with the missing. ON THE LABRADOR COAST. The prospects were gloomy and discourag- ing. ‘The ice was forming and the position of the Tigress was unknown. It was, of course, determined to proceed at all hazards. The weather was bad, with a heavy seaon. We were hugging the Labrador Coast. The night was pitchy dark. A LIGHT IN THE DARENESS. At eleven P. M. a light was reported on the port beam. Rockets were subsequently seen from @ distant steamer. SLOWED DOWN. Commander Braine ordered the Juniata to be slowed down and answered the signals. There was tho greatest excitement on board. A steamer in this sea at this time was so rare a thing that it was felt on board news from the Polaris was at hand. The steamer was THOUGHT TO BE THE TIGRESS. She bore down on us and at midnight was close aboard. AMID DEATHLIKE SILENCE the shont came over the water, “Ship ahoy!"’ ‘Ay, ay," was answered from our vessel. “Ts that the Juniata?" “Yes,”’ was replied. “We have the American Consul aboard’ then was heard from the steamer. Commander Braine ordered the whale boat to be lowered, and, in charge of Lieutenant De Long, she ; SPED THROUGH THE HEAVY SEA to the steamer. Consul T. N. Molloy was then conveyed to thé duniate and _informed Commander Braine that he had received a telegram at St. Johns that the Polaris people had ARRIVED AT DUNDEE, Scotland, having been rescued by the whaling steamer Arctic, and that at four P. M. he had chartered the steamer Cabot to follow the Juniata and stop her. The news wns received with the greatest delight Consul Molloy was the recipient of the warmest congratulations for the ENERGY AND PROMPTNESS he had displayed in saving the government expense end relieving the Juniata from o perilous mission. BACK TO ST. JOHNS. The Juniata immediately headed for St Johns, and arrived as above.

An Officer and Five of the Orow Left Bohind in an Open Boat on the Sea—Arri- val of Mormons—Probable Loss of the Boat’s Ozxew. Yesterday afternoon the oflictals at Castle Garden were kept pretty bustiy engaged, 1,493 passengers having arrived, The steamship New York, from Bremen, brought 399 passengers; the steamship Anglia, from Glasgow, 211, and the steamship Wyoming, from Liverpool, 883, The last named vessel did not reach her dock until a late hour, and at eight o'clock about 400 of the passengers were landed at Castle Garden. The remainder, including 506, who are Mormons, were kept on board and will be brought to Castle Gar- den to-day. Two hundred and one are scandi- navians, the remainder arre English, Scotch and @ few Irish, The Wyoming, on Monday evening last, hada very barrow escape from being wrecked near Nova Scotia. The vessel ran on a sand bar, about fifteen miles from Sable Island light, where she re- mained al) night and until about two o’clock next day before she was got o!f, after being obliged to throw over most of her freight, As soon as she struck 2% boat was lowered, and the third officer, with five men, left for the shore. No provisions were put on board, but a barrel of water was taken by oneof the men. As soon as tne Wyoming got off the bar it was discovered she was leaking, and the pumps Were set going, A boat was sent ashore for the third mato’s party, but it has not been heard of orseen. After waiting wlll nearly night the Captain got up steam and set out for New York. All the time one of the air-tight compartments kept sing, hotwithstanding that the pumps ware ep ard at work at intervals through the loyal ir. Fairbanks, who is in charge of the Mormons, declined to permit those who were under his Cod to leave the ship. Noting has been since heard of the miasing lifeboat in which the third oMicer and five of tie crew set out for the island to secure help for the steamer directly after she struck. NAMES OF THE CREW. The names of the men who composed the crew of boat No. 4 were Third Officer wm. Glegg, @ Scotch- man; E, Daniel, William Jones, Josiah Long, Charles Graham and Joseph Roberts, PROBABLY SWAMPED. It was quite dark when the boat left the steamer to row fifteen miles and make a landing on the island, on whose const there are only two small spots where it is at all sale ‘or @ boat to land, even by daylight. Probably she attempted to Jand and Was swamped, and all hands lost. Fortunately the weather was fair, so that the steamer was not broken in pieces before she was lightened, and foated off the bar by the rising tide. The first officer says that if the boat’s crew wero able to land on tho island after the Wyoming leit they would be amply pror ed for and taken away by a steamer expected from Halifax on Wednesday. But the chances seem to be ten to one that the un- fortunate crew are beyond the aid of the life-saving force on Sable Island, having found watery graves smong the breakers on the coast. Description of Sable Island. Sable Island {s a Jow, sandy tract, about twanty- five statute miles in length by one and 6 quarter in breadth. It lies in latitude 40 deg. north, longt- tude 59 deg. 47 min. west, being nearly a hundred miles southeast of Nova Scotia, Thys it will be seen that the island lies directly in the track of vessels plying between the port of New York and the northern ports of Europe. In consequence Of its situation in the heart of a spot remarkabie for the freaks of oceanic currents of varying tem- peratures it is almost constantly enveloped in mist and fog. The most experienced navigators in sweeping over the track on which tnis island rests invariably exercise extreme caution in passing the reeis that encircle it. Kspeciully is this the case when masters of vessels, taking the north. erp and middie passages trem Queenstown, are unable to take Observations of the sun off the Banks of Newfoundland owing to inclement weather. After taking advantage of the favorable breezes in the northern evurse, captains here veer more southward, entering the polar current, which caunot be depended on for a certainty, owing to its varying velocity. Thus the navigator, in advanc- ing from the Banks towards New York, is tn immi- ment danger of running aground on the coast of Sable island, and nothing but the extraordinary precautions taken in the way of repeated stellar and lunar observations, when possibile, accurate reckoning, prevent the occurrence of repeated wrecks thereon. Despite the vigilance and care of mariners, however, nuimerous shipwrecks have taken place there, some of them being attended with extensive loss of life. So constantly were ships found to pave gecntaed on its verge that the government deemed it necessary to organize a a company of men for the purpose of saving life ground its shores and relieving storm-tossed sea- men. This band is maintamed at an annual cost of one thousand eon sterling, and the men are furnished with ample provisions and ap- paratus for the relic! of those who may be driven to the island. Life-boats, buoys, surgical and medical appliances, dc. aré at hand, and the employés ure so distributed that the occurrence of a disaster in one direction olf the land is immediately known to all the rescuera, and assistance is speedily rendered. There is ex- cellent fishing in the vielpity, and this occupation, attracting more settiers to the place, bas facill- tated the means of succoring distressed sailors, The island is covered with rank grass and wiid peas. Cattle abound along the borders, and 500 wild horses roam at liberty in the centre. Hence it may be seen that there are leas fayorable regions than Sable Island on whose treacherous shores stips may rush to destruction. It is, nevertheless, cer- tain that the dangers of this spot, being so well un- derstood, navigators, especially those who com- mand ocean steamships, can have little pretext for allowing their vessels to approach so near to this dangerous land.

The Final Argument~Waiting for the Verdict. The argument in the Créait Mobilier case was resumed yesterday morning by Mr. Perry, for the government.@ Following Mr. Evarts, who had firmly placed his declaration of the unconstita- tionality of the Court, bis argument seemed weak by comparison. He seemed to wander from his subject and to be undetermined tn his conclusions. Putting his remarks upon the base of morality, le aliuded to the enormity of the crime, aud the dimiculty of punishing the wronging parties unless in this way. Thus he passed over almost completely the tue matters of argument, which were, first, the propriety Meda cee in @ civil wa: agaist persons accused of @ criminal act, ani finally, the organization of the Court. Mr. Perry's side of the case was not strengthened by the sab- sequent speech of Mr. Ashton, Who was {il and un- able to do himself or his subject justice. On the art of the defence the conduct of this case has en very able. ‘Mr. Evarts opened and showed the anconstita- tionality of the Court, which had been, he said, organized by the Fi tian, General, and which professed powers tyrannical te igen and prac- tice, Judge Curtis followed ti systew Of argu- ment and added effect to it, Mr. Bartlett closed the argument for the de- fence.

New York Evening Post says of “Miriam Mon~ fort "— “Mrs. Warfleld’s new novel has freshness, aud !s so far removed from fpr ec to for entitle itto respectiuk comment. Her fiction o study. Her perception deep and artistic as respects both the dramatic side life and the Leautiful. It is not strictly nature in the eral sonse that forme the basis of her descriptions. ‘bh finds something deeper and more mystie than nature im the sense in which the term is usually used by critics, im the answer of the soul to life—in the weird and lonesome music ithough now and then broken by dis- cords) of the still small voices with which human nature replies to the questions that sorely vex her. She has the analytic capacity in the fleld of psychology, which en- ables her to tracé phenomena in’s siory without arguing about them, and to exhibit the dramatic side of them. withont stopping to explain her reasons for it, Ina word, hor band is as sure as that of w master, and if there were more such novels as this simple sems-biographical story of Miriam Monigrt it would not be necessary 40 often to put the question, ‘Is the art of fiction extinct?!” NEXT WEEK, @ new edition of THE HOUSEHOLD OF BOUVERIB, Emo.
