The mews of the finding of the crew of the Avetie exploring steameor, commanded by Captain Delong, is the first tidings of that vesscl which has reached this conntry since Sep- tember, 1879, when it was seen off Herald island far up in the Arctie sea. The Jeannette was provisioned for a three yoms voyage, and fow fewrs were entertained for her safoty until last spring, expodi- tions were dispatched to tho velief of her commander aud crew, ‘The Corwin loft San Fraucixco carly in the spring, and was shortly after- wards followed by the Rodgers. The last named vessol made its way up through Behring's strait to Wrangell Land off’ the northeastern coust of Ni- beria, which it explored without dis- when two covering any traces of the lost steamer. For two yenrs and threo months not w word had been heard from her. The intorest oxcited by her disappearance was intense in the scientific world and the various geographical sociotios of England, France, Gormany and other nations were already beginning to urge upon their respective govern- ments the fitting out of a joint sexrch expedition when the news of the find- ing of u portion of the crew lost ateamer was flashed by wire from far off Biberia, Details of the route taken by Captain De Long are few and unsatisfactory, Entering Bohri strait the Jeannctte must have steered north westerly course, pass- ing Wrangell Land and waring to the unorth towards the pole. Some time prior to June of the predent year, ahe became enclused in the ice in lagi- tude 77 north, longitude 167 east, poiut about 500 miles north of the northern Siberiun const line, and 1,600 wiles west of Behring's strait. On the 11th of June the vessel was erushed by the ice, and the officers aud orew were compelled to take fo the boats and begin 8 perilous Journey southward towards the pear- | then 250,802, and under the arrcars Two of the three est land. boats reached the native settlements on the Siberean const the first on the 20th nlv‘ September, the other on the same day of the following month.

His vessel was the Pandora, a bark-rigzed steam yacht, 420 tons, purchased of the government, by which it had been built in 1861, for | dispatch boat. His objeot was, if possible, to go throngh the northwest passage by the voute which | Sir John Franklin took ally John, it is Dbelieved, must have de- posited in the vicinity of King Wil liam's Land. Captain Youny succeeded in getting within twenty 1iiles of King William's Land, but at that point found the ice impenetrable and returned the same season, arriv- ing in England in October. The next year he had intended to renew the ef- fort, but was sent out in the Pandora by the Buiitish government with sup- plies for the Alert and Discovery. These, as it happencd, were never received, being deposited at Littleton island, the former eamping place of Capt. Buddington, at which place Capt. Nares did not call. The Pan- dora was aftorward sold to James Gordon Bennett, of the New York Herald, who changed her name to the Jeannette, and sent her out or. a voy- age of discovery by way of Bohring's strait, She sailed under American colors from San Francisco, July 8, 1879, commanded by officers of the United States navy, at the head of whom were Lieut.

An interesting article 1n a late num- ber - of Bradstreet's discusses the cost of our active and silent armies, and makes a comparison with the military oxpenses of Krance, Gireat Britain and Germany. These countries maintain costly armies, and annually oxpend the following sums on their account: France, $100,000,000; (ier- many, $80,600,000; Great Britain, #74,826,000. These figures have been obtained from the latest available of- ficial publications. Turning to the United States it is found that the expenditures on our army proper are, in round numbers, about $40,000,000. In 1879 they amounted to $40,420, 660, Last year they wore, owing to reductions made for political pur- poses, but little more than £:38,000,- 000, The average expenditures, how- evor for a number of years have boen fully up to the said sum of forty mil- lions, Turning to the silent army of pensioners the expenditure for 1880 is shown to bo %57,240,640. The num- ber of pensioners upon the lst was of ponsions act have been largely in- creased. Over eight thousand were added to the roll last year, increasing the expenditure on this account by the amount of $23,460,014. The cost of our active and silent in round numbers, is 7,000,000, This, says Brad- stroet’s, ‘‘oxceeds tho amount ex- pended by Great Britain for her army, including her army pension roll, by §20,000,000; oxcoeds the amount ox- pendod Dby the Gorman empire by some 815,000,000, aud voarly oquals the sum expended by France.” These aro startling figures, and will strike those who have never given the sub- jeet consideration with amazement. ‘T'his is not the whole of it." The com- wissioner of pensions deelares that there is a deficit of £20,000,000 in the pousion payments of the currént yoar, which, if granted by congress, will bring the expenditure on waccount of the ‘active and silent armics up to | #117,000,000, & swin 17,000,000 in oxcess of the amount expended by the country which maintains the lurgest | standing army in the world, No other country shows such a costly pen- sion list as that of the United States. At this, time 275,000 pensioners ro- main upon the rolls, and there is no telling how many are yet to be added to incraase the natioual burdens. Be- fore the passsge of the arrears of pen- sions act the highest amount paid out inany one year was in 1871, when the figures reachod §34,443,000. ¥rom that point, as the matural result of deathy among pensioners, the pension IHE OMAHA DAILY BE¥ list began to decrease until, in 1878, the amount of payments was reduced to ®27,157,000, Under the act the expenditures rose to more than £57,000,000 in 1880 This year ars the sum will reach at least soventy | reed that st one-half during the millions, and upward, and e sum by at year follow I CLEANSE THE CITY.

Tt is high timo that of Omaha should make itself On the 22d of October al columns of this paper the editor of Tre Bex: called upon the committee, which was headed by Col. Smith, to devote attention to these sinks of vice, and promised them under such circumstances the moral support of this community. At the time of Col. Smith's murder the editor of the Ber made a personal appeal to Mayor Boyd and Deputy Marshal Mec- Clure to enforce the law against the vilo dens where crime was daily plot- ted and perpetrated and where our young men were being turned into enminals. He was informed that un- der the operation of the new license law all such low resorts would be com- pelled to go ent of business. And the sentiment felt on this question in the edito their now it is intimated to the people of Omaha that every application for a liconse if accompanied by the necessary bond will be granted. Tt is suggested that the city authorities have mnot the power to suppress the schools of vice where thieves, cut throats and thugs hold riot. 1d the threat is made that no man can file his objection against this class of applicants for liquor liconse without running the risk ot being waylsid and murdered. What do the law-abiding ons of Omaba do about it? Will they have the courage to come to the front and demand that the decency and good name of this com- munity shall not any longer be 8o openly outraged, the lives of decent people endangered and the morals of the young men of our city putin jeopardy ! Will they, say to the keepers of these criminal regorts, ““The law has placed it in our power to close up your dens and we propose to do it?” And by voicing en masse the senti- ment of every respectable man and woman in this city will they bring the force of an overwhelming public sontiment to bear uponthe feeblo wills of the aity officlals. Every zon of Omaha is indignant over the disgraceful condition of our thoroughfares. They demand that the streets shall be cleaned and that the reeking alleya shall b scoured of their filthiness. propose to Will they be equally urgent in de- manding that the law shall be applied to the dirty schools of crime and vice which infust our city and in insisting that Omaha shall be thoroughly cleansed of aink holes which breed mare discase than muddy crossings or filthy alleyways! —— Tur Springticld Republican has heard of Nebraska liquor legislation, and remarks: Advocates of prohi and of stringent license provisions ‘in liquor legislation are now likely to see their respective theories given a trial on a large scalo in the west, side by side and in similarcommunities.

Omaha, with a population of a little over 30,000 had about 160 saloons, and it is reported that 100 of them will be shut u, ounly 60 aro ready to pay for licenses. It is expected that tho law will be rigidly enforcod from the action of dealers themselyes, as those who pay the high fees will, for the good of their own pockets, sce to it that un- licensed selling is prevented. —— Govexzon 81, Joun's temporance lecture in Oraha is heartlessly allud- od to asa dreary pieco of uldmpu-try, When Governor St. John strikes a blow at the chief industey of Owaha, ho may expect all sorts of remorseloss iticism. - Deiver Lribune, Omaha proposes to strike a blow at the industry of the sharks and bullics who keep deus aud dives in her city, aud in doing s sho will have the cor- dial assistance of every reputable and law-abiding liquor seller, RAILROAD NO1ES.
