At length the Janseuistical Ministers of the Emperor Joseph, hiving completed abroad the irreligious destniction which the misbelieving Ministers of Louis XV. had begin, our accomplished Missionary returned to his own country, to devote himself, nutlet the direction of his ',priors, to the divine work of'sseing souls.

His upright and active mind was uniformly and equally employed, during the remainder of his life, in promothig the glory of Ged, the advancement of religion, aid the peace and welfare of his country, as his writings will demonstrate, should his friends, to whom they belong, determine on pub. fishing them.

PARRY./ JOURNAL Or ♦ VOYAGg ros THE DIBOOT/LILT OF • 111011 TO-W EST PAUAOE. [From " The NIPICI Monthly Magazine." It was in the morning of this day, Sunda; ., (ember 5, that the ships had crossed the meridian of 110. west from Greenwich, in the latitude of 74. 44. 2., by which they became entitled to the sum of five thousand pounds; the reward offered by 'Act of Parliament to such of his Majesty's sub jects as should penetrate thus far to the westward„ within the Arctic Circle. The nearest headland was io consequence, denominated BOUNTY C•PB, by the men, to whom Capt. Parry communicated this cheering intelligence after divine service; exhorting them at Ike same time to make the most strenuous exertions dating the short remainder of the sensors before them, s s fie bad little doubt of their accom plishing their enterprise before the close of the fol lowing one, if they e'chld penetrate a few degrees farther to the westward, before the ships were laid op for the winter. For several days after this auspicious event the ships were unable to proceed farther than o little coasting romid the island, on account of contrary windy and the rapid accumulation of ice, which exposed them to the greatest danger, and the crews to incessant fatigue. This was the more mortify ing, as Captain Parry had always looked forward to the month of September as the period shove all others favourable to the more rapid prosecution of the object of his voyage. To add to his 'anxiety, a party of men, who had been sent on shore in search of deer, loot their way, and during three days created the most distressing apprehensions for their fate; nor were they finally recovered without con siderable danger to those who went in search of them, and who, had their recovery been delayed one night longer, must have perished with them, us the thermometer fell before midnight to 50.; a temperature which it would have been impossible for them to have survived exposure to, debilitated as they were by.excessive fatigue. In gratitude to God for their ~reservation, the toarest headland was called CAPE PROVIDENCE. The increasing dangers and difficulties attendant on continuing the navigation westward, by which lli-y lord already been placed in situations of the moil.. in:id: nem peril, the rapid formation of the ice, the shortness of the day-fight, and the eft; cts which the crew of the Griper, in particular, which had been forced on shore by the ice, began to feel from the effort. constantly necessary 10 work her, all compelled Captain Parry to turn his thoughts to it e providing of winter quarter', for which lie finally fixed ou the eastern side of Melville island. The labottrof cutting a canal through the ice, in order to get he ships into a place of gaiety for the winter, may be imagined by our readers, • Len then are in formed that the length of it was four thousand and eighty-two yards, unit the average thickness of the ice seven inches. Ors Sunday, the 26th of Sep tember, the Plops were securely harboured, and the joyful event •was hailed by both their companies with three heathy cheers. " Having now," sat s Captain Parry, " reached the station, where, in all probability, we were des. tined to remain for ut least eight or trine months, during three of which we were not to set the face of the sun, my attention was immediately and im periously called to various important duties; marry of them of a singular nature, such as had, for the first time, devolved on any officer in his Majesty's navy, and might indeed be considered of rare occurrence iu the whole history of navigation. The irecuri f the ships, and the preservation of the vsrio es, were objects of immediate con cern. Are ar system to he adopted for the main- I tenance of good order and cleanliness, as most conducive to the health of the crews during the long, dark, and dreary winter, equally demanded my attention. " Nut • moment was lost, therefore, in the com mencement of our operations. The whole of the masts were dismantled except the lower one., and the Heck's main-top-mast, the latter being kept fidded for the purpose of occasionally hoisting up the electrometer-chain, to try the effect of atmo spherical electricity. The lower yards were lashed fore and aft amidships, at a sufficient height to support the planks of the housing intended to be erected over the ships, the lower ends of which rested on the gunwale ; and the whole of this frame work was afterwards roofed over with a cloth, com posed of wadding-tilt, with which waggons are usually covered ; and thus was formed a comfort able shelter from the snow and wind. The boats, spate, funning rigging, and sails, were removed on shore, in order to give as much room as possible on our upper deck, to enable the people to take exer cise on board, whenever the weather should be too inclement for walking on shore. It was absolutely necessary, also, for the preservation of our sails and ropes, all of which were hard-frozen, that they should be kept in tbat state till the return of spring; for, asit was now impassible to get them dried, owing to the constantly low temperature of the atmosphere, they would, probably, have soon rotted had they been kept in any part of the ships, where the warmth we'll(' occasion them to thaw ; they were, therefore, placed with the boats on shore, and a covering of canvass fixed over them. This covering, however, a' we afterwards found, might better have been dig. penoed with ; for as we had not the means of con structing s roof sufficiently I,izlit to keep out the fine snow which fell dtivirorthe winter, it only served, by the eddy wind which it created, to make the drift about it greater ; and I have now no doubt that, with stores in the state in which I have de scribed our sails to be, it would be better simply to lay them on some spare to keep them off the ground, allowing the arrow to cover them as it fell. Fur want of experietsco in these matters, we also took a great deal of Nemec vvvvv trouble iii carrying the anchors over the ice t beach, with an idea of f securing the ships t u . slime p me at the brenking u ile of the ice in the spri g; a precaution for %%Welt there was trot the smallest °moos's, and by which the cables suffered unnecessary exposure during the whiter. 1000 as the ships were secured and housed over, my ■adivided attention war t in the next place, directed t, the comfort of the officers au.l men, sod to tbe preservation of that extraordinary degree or halal& which we had hitherto enjoyed iii both ships."

" Under circumstances of leisure and inactivity," Pays he, " fuch as we were now placed in, and with every prospect of its continuance fur a very large portion of a year, I was desirous of finding Now amusement for the mess during this tong and tea dious interval. I proposed, therefore, to the officer to get up a play occasionally on board the Ueda' as the readieot means of preserving among our crews that cheerfulness and good-humour which had hitherto subsisted. Is this proposal I was readily seconded by the officers of boils 'ship.; and Lieutenant Beechy having been duty elected as rtage-manager, our firrt performance was fixed for the sth of November, to the great delight of the ships' companies. In these anutsemeuts I gladly undertook a part myself, considering that ass exam ple of cheerfulness, by giving a direct countenance to every thing that could contribute to it, was not the least essential past of my duty, under the pe culiar circumstances in which we were placed. " In order still further to promote good-humour among ousselve., as well as to furnish amusing oc cupatitir during the hour. of constant darktiesr, we set on foot a weekly newspaper, which was so be called the North Georgia Gazette and if inter Chronicle, and of which Captain Sabine undertook to he the editor, under the promise that it was to be supported by original contributions from the °Seers of the two ships ; arid, though some objec tion may, perhaps, be raised against a paper of this kind being generally resorted to is ships of war, I was too well acquainted with the discretion, as well HI the excellent disponi iiiii s of my officer., to appres held any uisplearstit conrequentes from a measure art this kind ; itistead of which I can safely say, that the weakly contributions had the happy effect of employing the leisure hours of those who furasiehtil them, 111111 of diverting the mind from the r;lirorny prospect winch would sometimes obtrude itself on the ploatert heart." Oil the 4th of November the sun sunk below the horizon, taut to appear sem above it for the space of ninety-six daya. On the .sth the theatre opened with "Miss in her Teeny ;" and Captain Party found so much benefit accrue to Otis men from the ainulement the spectacle afforded them, sod the occupation of fitting op the theatre, and taking it down again, that their dramatic representatturs weir punctually continued the whole of the winter, mid performed and witnessed with equal pleasure, even when the thermometer was below Zero on the It seemed that the sinking of the sun below the horizon for so long a period was a subject of painful feeling to the animals who might consider them selves the lawful possessors of the islaud, as well as to the human beings who bad sought a temporary on it; for from that time the wolves began to approach the ships, as if drawn thither by me lancholy sympathy, and would bowl most piteously for hours together, much to the annoyance of • beautilhl little white fox, which lied been caught in • trap, set under the bows of the Griper, and which, from the nervous irritability be betrayed at the sound of their voices, seemed as if lie had been accustomed to consider them as signals of destruc. tion to his tribe. The wolves seldom appeared in greater numbers than two or three together, and it was somewhat extraordinary, that although the whole crews were constantly, for months together, intent on killing or catching some of them, they never could succeed, though the wolves were con stant enough in their attendance to make acquaint ance with all the dogs belonging to the vessels.— Only one hear was seen during the winter; it was of the white kind, and trilekti Captain Sabine's servant quite to the ships ; but being there saluted by a volley •f balls, it made a retrograde motion and escaped. The weather now began to grow intensely , and during the latter part of Novetnher and the first half of December, Captain Parry's Journal presents little more than observations on it; and on the meteoric appearances, and fantastic illu sions of light and colour, with which raiiiire seems to amuse herself in these dreary solitudes, as if secure from the prying impeititience of man, she might descend to downright gambol with her powers. At tne time the moon appeared curiously deformed by refraction, the lower edges of its disc seeming to be indented with deep uotches, and afterwards to be cut oft square at the bottom; whilst a single ray, or rather column of light, of the same diameter us the introit, was also observed to descend from it to the top of the bill, like a pillar supporting It at another, light transparent clouds were seen to emit columns alight upaarils, resembling the Aurora Borealis ; tomtit!s the south-east, being reprised to a eery light sky, they had a pule•br.rwn appearaime. The Aurora Borealis itself seldom appears to bare been witnessed in the oplendour aid) which it oc casionally illuminates the Shetland Ishii, or oilier places in the Atlantic, shut the same latitude as our adventurers were how iii; still it sews both frequent and vivid enough to give variety and beauty to the long long nights they bud to endure. The shottegt day, however, arrived, and actually surprised both the men and officer, by the quickness with which it seemed to come upon them : ►o hue it is that an uoitorin life , provided it have ►ul6- cient occupation, alw•ats appears to pr snore swiftly than that which is chequered by a variety of impressions; and that Captain Parry was stiffi manly ingenious iu providing his men with employ ment, is evident from a complaint accitieeitally coming to his ears that they had not time to mend their clothes. The new year was ushered iii with weather com paratively mild; but it WWI regained its aereri4. The scurvy now began to appeur io a few instaices; but by the judicious tredinient of Mr. Edwards and hie assistants, it was prevented from making any dangerous progress. Among the remedies prescribed, in ►uch a situation, our readers would scarcely expect to find fresh rulading; it was, nevertheless, not only prescribed but procured, by memos of boxes filled with mould, and placed along the pipe of the stove in the cabin. By this means they were enabled, teen in that inclement clirbe and season (anal 'llierugri the economy they were obliged to observe with respect to Titel did not allow of their keeping • fire in at night), to supply two or three scorbutic patients with nearly an oulice of fresh mustard and creams drily; and wheat it Is considered how very small ti qu•utity of fresh vegetable matter is a perfect specific for this scourge of a sea-faring life, it is to be hoped that this simple meithottof procuring it will be rifterver resorteit to. These vegetables were of good flavour, though pdfectly colourless from the priVatiou of light but u this peculiarity may only , add to their value its the eyes of those who are feed of seeing any thing' as Nature intended it to be, Arctic salading may he introduced as an enviable rarity in future bills df fare at our 1118'1,one:de tables; and perhaps, in process of time, become a regular branch of luxury with the Esquiinaux ladies, should our ac cidental interconrie with them terminate, as at tempts at civilitation generally dn. 111 inspiring them with a contempt for every thing within their reach, and a desire of any thing apparently lie. yond it, Towards the end of January some of the ports were opened, in order to admit the carpenters and arinourers to repair the main-topsail-yard ; in or der that, at least, a shew of re-equipment for sea might be made. On the 9d of February the suit was seen from the main-top of the Heels, for the first time since the 11th of November.
