NORTSWEST EXPEDITION. We regret to learn that that active and enterprising Oakes. Cape'. Parry, has reached his native country in a 514 W of serluss iodisposition. According to one account rye folifisre which be has undergone have been .so severe as to effect his health; according to another, some unpin mat intelligence of a private nature, is said to have pre date-1 this effect. At present, it appears, he is too unwell to enter upon say discussion of the great objects of the hies on which be has been engaged ; we can therefore ,tile to what has already been published respecting the is just .eneluded; at the same time it may not be alamertable to oar readers to cast a retrospective view on the .ensues which preceded it, and the objects which it was Wended to putsue. The discovery of a North-West passage into the South Sea was awe( the earliest attempts of oar navigators in the beginning of the 16th Century. The Dutch attempted it in the year 1594 ; and there is a very Interesting awl easiest account of " Captain Thomas James's strange and dangerous voyage in his intended Discovery of the North West Passage into the South Sea, is the Year 1631 cad 1632." This Officer (an Englishman) d des sot ewer to have gone further to the North than 63. 30. though be was absent between 16 and 17 months. He indeed. "by the only industry of oar own nation those northern parts of America have been discovered to the latitude 4)180 degrees.and upwards." Hr however only entered Hudson's Straits : and be delivers a most decided Noinion that there is no North West passage into the Pacific Ocean. The most accurate and persevering of these old navigators„ Wee Herm, who discovered that vast 'islet to the North West which is called Baffi t's Bay. la subsequent times .various navigators have explored these seas, particularly the late L tril ;Outgrew, who in 1773 got as far to the North as 80. 50. The Greenland Whale Fishers hate often gone much further; and in 1751 a Captain Stephens advanced to 84.50. For several years the prosecution of nautical discoveries In this part of the world had ceased to be an object of am bition; but in the year 1817, it having been repres-n•ed that the Arctic Seas were remarkably free from ice, the British Admiralty thought it their duty to direct thither an expedition. The objects in view we -e first to ascertain the practicability or impracticabil ty of a psssage North ward Into the Pacific Ocean, and, secon thy. to advance science in general. It was argued, that if the region of the Pole were occupied by an open sea, it might be possible to sail least circuitously over the Pole itself; that if that were impracticable. it might be possible to proceed along the North Western Coast of America into the Pacific Ocean; amid lastly, if neither passage should be open, still the observations which might be made in geography. oron the effect of tides an I currents of the sea, or on changes of the atmosphere, variations of the magnetic needle ate. Ise., might be of inestimable valne to scd-nce. The L egislature else (wonted this aniertaking by decreeing a graduated scale of bounties for discoveries in the Arctic Sea, accord ing to the distance to which the adventurous navigators might advance. Accordingly, in April 1818, two vessels, the Isabella and Alexander, proceeded, under the command of Capt a in Ross, astir as Lancaster Sound, bet.veen 74 and 76 North latitude ; bat, conceiving that he had fully ascertained that no passage was to be found there, Captain Ross returned the same year, and published an account of his voyage, with some valuable scientific observations which had bees made on it. - Captain Parry who had been the junior Commander os this first expedition, was now selected to command a second, and he sailed with the Hecla and °riper under is command in May IBi9. He proceeded according to his instructinus first to Lancaster Sound, and was more foetus nate than Captain Ross, in discovering ghat the Inlet so called was not properly a sound, but formed a connection with the Polar Sea. He therefore continued to advance to ' the Westward until be reached lat. 74. 26. N., leng. 113, 46. W.. which entitled himself and his crew to a bounty of 50001 on the new graduated scale of reward.. In Septa.. ber 1819 the two ship. were laid up-fur the winter in a place called Winter Sound, perhaps the coldest spot on the face of the globe ; for in January 1820 they found the Thermo meter 49 below Zero. They did not get out of this bar' our till the Ist of August 1820, said returned to the River 'Thames in November folloeing. This expedition, although it bad not discovered a com munication with the Pacific, yet had given fresh reason to to think that discovery possible. Upon a full consideration. however, of all the circumstances it was thought that snits passage was more likely to be foetid in the less Northerly I Whittle; and that some of the inlet which Baffin had named Sounds might afford navigable passages into the Polar Sea, and so to the Pacific along the Northern coast lof America. Such was the object of that great undertaking in which Captain Parry has been last engaged, and which he and his brave crews have prosecuted with the ardour that characterises British Wham. They have now passed two winters in the Northern regions. though probably nut such severe seasons as on their former tome ; because in 1821 they wintered iu 1at.66. 11. N.. long. 63. W. ; and in 1822 in 1at.69.20. N., long. SI 50. W. They have as certained the Northern limit of the American Continent; ' but they . have also ascertained (it is said) that the ire forms an immoveable and insuperable barrier against any passage into the Pacific Ocean. The Edinburgh Observer says, " After they bad got clear of the ice, it was Captain Parry's intention to have taken the greater part of the remaining provisions out of his consort, send her home. and persevere himself, but strong symptoms of scurvy jest then made their appear ance, which determined him to give it up. We understand the highest latitude they reached was 69 deg., and that, of the two years and a half they were absent, they were 21 months frozen in." • Between one and two (Mock this morning, the peo, le near the north end of the Broomirlaw bridge, were alarm• ed, and roused from their beds, by $ crash and noise n 111.6 shook the houses to the foundation.
