would make the said John 109 years of

Return of Dr. Kane.
The return of Dr. Kane, which we
announcetelegraphicly elsewhere, will
cause universal rejoicing. We make up
I the following brief sketch of his journey-
‘ mg from the reports of his officers.
New YORK, Oct. 11.
The propeller Arctic and the bark Re-
lease, which sailed from this port last
June, in search of Dr. Kane and his fol-
lowers, arrived here this evening, with
Dr. Kane and his party on board. The
propeller and bark made their way north
ll. Smith’s Sound up to latitute 79 1-2.
Here they were stopped by ice,and wor-
king in shore in search of a passage they
discovered an iiidian village and learned
that Kane had gone south. They then
returned to Disco’s Island. in Dlwl‘
Straits, where they found the Kane expe-
dition, Kan: had pushed his vessel as far
north as 81, when he was frozen _in for
the winter, Kane remained on his ves-
sel, sending about 80 miles to the Indian
vilage for provisions. In the spring the
party abandoned the vessels and made
their way southward, in sledges, to the
town 0fUppet' Avik, a Danish settlement
on the west coast of Greenland. Thence
by a Danish vessel, aliey were transpor-
ted to the Island of Disco, where the
searching party found them. All the
party were more or less frost-bitten.—-
Last winter was unusually severe in the
Arctic Seas ; many Indians perished
from starvation and cold, and many
were compelled to eat their dogs. Dr.
Kane and his party were found on Dis-
co’s Island on the 13th day of September.
Several amputations were performed, the
toes of those who had not been north be-
fore being frost bitten.
Finding that liberation was impossible
and that no expedition in search of them
could penetrate the ice in time to avoid
a third winter,Dr. Kane determined, as
the only measure of safety, to abandon
the brig and travel to the south by alter-
nately traveling in sledges and in boats.
The sick were conveyed in dog sledges
under the immediate care of Dr. Kane
in persons who, attended to them with
_all the assiduity of his generous nature.
The distance traveled was nearly one
thousand four hundred miles, three hun-
tired and sixteen of which was performed
in dog sledges and the balance in boats.
It was a period of great exposure and
suffering. The party sustained them-
selves entirely by their grins.
On the 6th of August, 1855, the party
entered the Danish settlements and took
passage in the Danish brig Mary Ann,
bound for England. They touched at
Disco on the 9th of September last,
and they were happily met by the expe-
diton under command of Capt, Hartstein.
Da. Kane immediately withdrew his
contract for passage in the Mary Ann,
and proceeded home by these vessels as
above described.
Capt. Hartstein said that he had with
some difficulty forced his way into Mel-
ville bay, and found Smith Sound cloth-
ed with ice. He had learned of the Es-
qtiiniaux of the departure of Dr. Kane.
He then returned and met Dr Kane at
Disco, just twenty-four hours previous to
the time fixed upon for the departure
of the Mary Ann for England.
The generous living of Capt. Han-
stein, and pleasant voyage home, have
nnnipletely restored Dr. Kane and those

Smiths will bring together. The ques-
tion of supplying such a multitude is al-
ready beffinning to excite serious appre-
beneions. Our Philadelphia c0tempora-
ry does well, however, in warning the
Smiths not to be too sanguine of making
their fortunes at the proposed conven-
tion. It is estimated, that if all the
Smith attend, and the two millions and
I half are equally divided among them,
each individual Smith will receive about
half a dollar.

GEOGRAPHICAL RESULTS .
I. Greenland has been followed and
charted by Dr. Kane toward the Atlan-
tic with coast line pointing due north,
until a stupendous glacier absolutely
checked their progress. This mass of
ice rose in a lofty precipice five hundred
feet high, abutting into the sea. It
undouptedly is the only barrier between
Greenland and the Atlantic. It is an
effectual barrier to all future explorations.
This glacier, in spite of the difficulty
of falling bergs, was followed out to sea
by means of sledges, the party rafting
themselves across open water spaces on
masses of ice. In this way they suc-
ceeded in traveling eighty miles along
its base, and traced it into a new north-
ern land. This glacier is we belive, the
largestever discoved by any navigator.
II. The new land thus cemented to
Greenland by protruding ice was named
Washington. The large bay which
intervenes between it and Geenlarid
bears the name of Mr Peabody, of Ba!
timore, one of the projectors of the expe-
dition. This icy connecton of the old
and new world seems to us a feature of
romantic interest
III. The range of the sledge journeys
may be understood from the fact that the
entire circuit of Smith Sound has been
effected and its shores completely char-
tori‘ But the real discovery of the ex-
pediton is the Polar sea. The channel
leading to these waters was entirely free
from ice ; anti this mysterious feature
was rendered the more remarkable by
the existence of a belt of solid ice exten-
ding one hundred and twenty-five ‘ miles
This chauiiel has been named after the
Hon. J. P. Kennedy, late Secretary of
to the southward. This sea verifies the
Views Of Dr. Katie as expressed to the
Geographical Society before his depar-

of this channel has been charted as high
as 82 deg. 30 min. This is the nearest
land to the Pole yet known. It bears
tlic -name of Mr. Henry Grinnell, the
founder of the enterprise.

Fnienn BYINGTON :-—I see you have
been “travelling.” In my remarks in a
former letter about “travel,” I did not
include Editors, although I could per-
haps have done so with much proprie ty,
nor do I suppose there is any connection
with your journey and what I then said,
not at all. But why did you not extend
your trip to the Mississippi River, while
you had your hand in '.' it was an easy
matter after you had once started. You
might have come among the "Ruflians”
of Missouri, withoutlhe least damage
to either mind or body. You could have
seen a Prairie or two, with some sain-
ples of unfinished Western towns and
cities. ~ You could also have got a fair
idea of the vastness of the West. and
‘with the help of your imagination, there
would have loomed up dimly upon your
astonished vision a faint outline of the
Power of that Empire that is destined
to exist in this great valley, that is des-
tined to exist in this great valley, nor
would your liveliest fancy in its widest
range, have equalled the comma nesti-
rr. -
But what is the use of talking, you
didn’t come, * so we will leave that
highflown subject until you do come to
“tother side of—the "Father of Rivers,”
when that takes place I will guarantee
you the "Freedom of the city” in ‘a-—-
Horn, and let me also whisper in your
ear the fact, that we have no "Maine
Law” in our State, but in place of it,
we have some genuine juice of the
grape, ‘domestic manufacture, warrant-
ed not to intoxicate if you do not drink
too much of it. I have been watch-
ing with some degree of interest the
movements of the political world, in
that Frontier’: section where you reside,

I should judge that a desperate" game
was being played, in the endeavor to
sink all other questions and issues in the
capacioas maw of the “nigger” question
and if’ any one can keep the run of inat-
ters and things in that quarter, that
one would be qualified for an Editor.
I look upon this whole “nigger agita-
tion,” as at present carried out at the
North, as a thing from beginning to end
so near in its complexion to a stupendous
humbug, that it would take all the skill
of Barnum with a microscope to detect
the difl"erence—it is of no practical val-
ue to anything under the sun, except
trading politicians, and of course they
are bound to make the most of it, and
they will stop their hue and cry only
when it ceases to be profitable to them.
In Maine, I see that the great gun of
“Fusion” has “kicked its owner over ;"
is that any evidence of a good time
coming? We shall see.
Now, my friend, perhaps you will
think I have become pro-Slavery in my
ideas of things, if so, you will have nev-

and that in New England, too long to
come to that point, but 1 do believe that
the public sentiment of the free States,
in regard to Slavery, and the feelings
and designs of Slave Owners is founded
on wrong conceptions of their true char-
acter, tbe whole subject is seen through
a false medium, that distorts it and
makes it appear what it is not.
There is another thing in connection
with this matter, which the North seems
to have lost sight of entirely,’ it is the
fact that the Free States have nothing
to lose pecuniarily by this agitation, .(if
they had it would have been stopped
long ago,) but every step that has ceen
taken sincethc first move of the 7 Aboli-
tionist to the present, has been attended
with heavy loss to the Slave States.-
At the North it is simply an abstract
anybody in its discussion, but at the
South it is a practical reality, involving
an immense amount of what is to them
the same as money, and the security and
ed by the tone and extent of this agita-
tion. ‘It is perhaps proper to, remark
here, that the people of the Free States,
are not by any means insensible to the
importance of "material" interests, and
they know now to appreciate the value
of all kinds of “property,” and if they
look at this question through the medi-
um of-the Golden Rule, they will see
the immense injustice of this whole bu-
siuess to the South.
Suppose the abolitionists gain their
point in this controversy, to what end
‘are they benefitted, save perhaps some
paltry political office? is it not, so far as-
they are concerned, aneiiiipty victory at.
the expense of justice, Christian feeling,
and common honesty.
Now it is useless to introduce here the
moral aspect of the question. It is
simply ridiculous for Politicians to talk
of morality in any connection, but to
give it as a justification for movements
which affects the security oif their neigh-
bors property, is preposteroius in the ex_
treme.

Review or the Fair. _
We closed our review of the exhibition of

that the display was small in comparison to
former years, but that there were special exhi-
bitions equal to any ever before presented at
our County Fair. There were no China Geese.
no. Aylesbury Ducks, Dominique or ' Black

wliat similar fact at the State Fairat Her-tford,
all of’ which goes to prove the very gratifying-
fact that the fowl fever does not rage as high
against our State, or the Pro-Slavery
or far from the ti-tith-the farther the

who in sanctimonious tone, could. read

longer than a "string." and this category
would embrace one of the ‘Institutions’
of the country (1')
I shall offer no defence, or extenuation
for acts of lawlessness, such as Missou-
rians have been accused of-effects fol-
low causes the world ’ over, and these
will not be exempt. I believe this, that
whatever has been done in Kansas, un-
der thelieat of passion, or excitement,
that was contrary to right, on either side
will, if it has not yet, re act on the per-
petrators. '
The great body of ‘the people of this
State, are as much a law-abiding people
and are as ready to respect the rights of
others, as those of any other State
out any exception. I speak fromwrriy
own knowledge, and I have more or
less acquaintaiice” in all‘ parts of ‘the
State, but it cannot be denied that a
great degree of excitement and ill-feel-
ing has been created among them, espe-
cially those in the Border counties, by
that Massachusetts "Emigrant Aid’-’ bu-
siness. This was looked upon as being
a great Anti-Slavery movement, having
for its object the forcing of Kansas into
a Free State, with a viewto operating
upon the “peculiar institution" in Mis-
souri, and hence their position may be
likened to that precisely which you, my

me that the Abolitionists if they posses-

wish to make a double impression,

it would be well also, for the No'r'th to

The Ladies’ Industrial Department was un-
usually fine and especially meritorious. The
display of Ladies’ Hats was exceedingly cred-
itable. The Cases entered by Miss Jarvis and
Miss Pilgrim seemed to have baffled the dia-
criminatiug powers of the Committee, who were
tied, in their judgment. The matter was fi-
nally adjusted by awarding to both the amount
of the first premium. There were several oth-
er beautiful specimens of the i\lilliner’a handi-

display of Hardware, Cutlery, d:c., and E. V.

In the Department of Domestic Manfifactures
there was an unusually large display. The
Stamford Carriage Co. took the field all to
themselves in carriages, and had two most
beautiful vehicles on exhibition. One, light
trotting wagon, was equipped with a new in-
vention called “Suspension Bridge Sp",-ins,»
got up by the Tornlinson Spring Co., of'Bridge-
port. They were very tasteful and must ride
with "easy motion. A well built Sleigh, from
Greenwich was also exhibited. A fine show
of Domestic Carpeting was entered by Jesse
Banks of Reddiug. and J. H. Sherwood of’
Southport. A very large collection of"Stoves
were entered by 0. J: E. K. Lockwood, Wm. D_
Haight, and F. H. Nash. A specimen of gen-
tlemeu’s hats, by N.~Seeley of Bethel, of flue
quality and tasteful finish. A splendid ehild’s
carriage was also exhibited, entered by one of
Phoenix Co’s workmen, we believe. Also.
three very ingeniously wrought hand sleds -
one built by Master G. W. Terrellof Trumbull,
the second by Master E. J. Dickerson. and the
third, of Iron, by Master Brown of‘ Weston.-
The lads who executed this work exhibited it-
rnechanical skill far beyond their years. I. H.
Campbell had a case of very fine confections,
ry of‘ his own manufacture. F. Bradley sever-
al sets of‘ beautiful harness.
A long list of miscellaneous articles too nu-
merous to particuliirize, come under the Dis-
cretionary head, and were awarded premiums,
Diplomas, &c., where their merits seemed to
require it and the rules of the Society did not
inhibit it. Foremost under this head were the
beautiful specimens of Felt Cloths manufactu-
red by the Union Manufacturing Co., of‘ this
town. The business of manufacturing Cloths
from the wool fibre without weaving, is exten-
sively carried on in various quarters of the
globe, but in no other place that we ere aware
of can so fine and pliable Cloths be turned
out. They are made under the personal sii.
pervision of George G. Bishop, Esq., whose
patent is used in their manufacture. The
Union Co. turn out about one hundred pieces
per day, and still are unable to supply the
demand. Many of these Cloths rival in soft-
ness, evenness, and outward finish, the best
made Broiulcloths ‘of foreign manufacture, and
by many they are considered much superior
to the woven fabric. This Establishment is
one of which the Town, the County,.and the
State may justly feel proud. A fine display of
Pottery and Stone Ware from Messrs. Asa E.
Smith & Sons, also attracted considerable {at-
tention. Of‘ fancy work there was an infinite
variety. Several very superior specimens of‘
drawing by the young Masters and Misses of
the town. «
A very ingeuously wrought Chandelier, cut
out of gilded paper. with innumerable devices
attracted much attention. The most beauti-
f'iil specimen of Ladies Handiwork exhibited,
was a fancy Stand wrought by Miss S. J. Sex-

State Fair.
We were able to spend but it single day at
Hartford during the State Fair, whereas one
should have passed the week to gain al'till
idea of its extent or mi-rit. As awhole it was
for superior to the one held last year, althoiigh
in some specialities it was decidedly inferior.
We give below a few opinions from abroad.
. The Springfield Republican pays the follow‘
ing first rate compliment : '
V Connecticut State Fair atflargford.
-—All in all, the passing Exhibition at
Hartford, commencing on Tuesday and
continuing through Friday, is the stipe-
rior of any previous agricultural fair in
the Union. Others have exceeded it in
specialities, but this, as it whole, must
bear away the palm. Connecticut has
just reason to be proud of the aggrega-
tcd specimens of her cattle, her horses,
her sheep, her poultry, her manufactures
her fruits and her flowers, her products
of the farm and dairy-—her taste, indus-
try and ingenuitycombiried. It certain-
ly surpasses in general character the
late New York State Fair. We were
astonished and delighted in looking over.
tlie'grotinds on Tuesday.
Solon Robinson, who is perhaps the best an_
tliority in such matters, thinks the Connecticut
State Fair superior to any other show of tit!
kind. In his letters to the Tribune he says:
As a general thing, the show of farm
production: is‘ solar ahead of New York
that I feel ashamed of our State.
The show of butter is highly respec-
table in quantity, and so superior in
quality that it will be but a small honor
to obtain the first prize where a dozen
other parcels are within the shadow of
a shade as good as the best. But the
quality is not all. the neat manner in
which it is put tip in nice cases and
white linen is enough to make one full
in love with the hand that produces such
food.
A larger show of every day horses
cannot often be found together, and that
may be said of the cattle. In both cases
the animals do not appear to have been
bred for show but for actual and profita-
ble use among the farmers and business
men. I,,_hgv_e_seen more blooded horses
and h-‘gh_h,£dr.,;_'!}l9 gu, O~l.Ifl:r anvwc, s.--
aicvcrsfw‘ larger numbers of such as
should always be shown at all fairs.-—
There is no mistake but Connecticut lar-
mers are waking up to improvement.
What is remarkable is the training
that all these beautiful “Connecticut red
oxen” have received. I repeat, I have
never seen so many valuable work oxen
together as I have seen this day.
Death of Hon. Mason Cleveland.-
Hon. Mason Clevlaud died at his resi-
dence in Hampton, Thursday morning
at 9_o’clock. He had been sick for some
time of ti chronic disease of the bowels.
Mr. Cleveland was State Senator in 1842
Comptroller of the State in 1846, and
Commissioner of the School Fund in
01853. He was 58 years old.

has ever been had in this country.
