Ike reason far %bleb is obvious — a greater member of ken linen would by that means be em• • ployeil. Previous to the lad stop, in 1819, our binding-money, lea pounds a keel, and one guinea for a bending supper, was staid t swnstlnslg every year. Some that period these allowances base gradually been diminished, till the last biadiug, when they trete wholly taken from us. i One principal reason of the present stoppage is, the de- mand which has been made by some of the coal-litters on the Tyne of one shilling awl threat's a tide for ase of Ole craft or keel, as • kind of rent charge; which is Neither t more nor less than reducing in that proportion every man's 11 yams.

FeJori the Montreat Gazette of September 11.] In addition to the communication which appear ed in th• rifoatrrof flerohl of the 17th ult. relative I. the Arctic Expedition, under the orders of L'eotenant Franklin, we are happy lobe empowered to strut, upon the authority of inure recent arrival., that the expedition had arrived at York Factory, p. Ilutl.ou's Bay, and woe about to embark fur Ear, land. It appelitS that the toils and sufferings of the Ex pedition have been of -the most trying description, sod that if they do nut exceed belief, they were at least of such a nature as almost to overcome the stoutest heart, and deter all future attempts of a tendeisc - Y. It was fitted out in the summer of 11119, and in the course of the following year was enabled by a liberal aid and reinforce meta from the North. West Company, to advance to the shores of the Great Bear Lake, winch, we think, is it. tusted in about 67 deg. north lat, where it eticamp• ed and - wintered. In the ensuing spring it ap prOaclied the Copper Mine River, which it de. scendell until it fell into the ocean. Hitherto the expedition was accompunied by Mr. Wintzel, a clerk to the North-West Company, with ten of their best Indian hunters; hot the wide and open seas, which ai.peared at the tualuence of the niter with the ocean, elated the expedition so much with the hope of ultimate success, the it was thought proper to dispense with the further attendance of Mr. ‘Vitozel, and his hunters, who accordingly re turned up the river, leaving the expedition to proceed in two canoes to explore the coast of the Polar See, eastward from the mouth of the Copper Mine River, towards Hudson's Bey. But it seems, that in vomit qtience of the approach of winter, so early as the letter end of August, heavy fallsof snow, dense as mist, and an extremely bare and ill.pro- Tided wardrobe, the expedition was unfortunately prevented from accomplishing its end, farther than eXploring about 500 mules of the coast which lies to the north-east of the Copper Mine River, and as certaining that, so far us the rye could penetrate, the sea which laid before throb was quite open, aud perfectly free of ice. As the expedition returned, its wants and its 'xi getictes brcame alarming to the extreme, and it soon required the whole fortitude of the besot, and the utmost exertion of the frame, to brave the hard ships which stared it in the face. In approaching that part of the Copper Mine River from which it set out, it was necessary to double en immense point of land, which would occupy a greater length of time than its emergencies would well admit of, and it was therefore deemed necessary to set the canoes adrift, and cut a direct course over land to the Copper Mine Ritter. When the travellers arrived on the banks of the river they experienced some puzzling difficulties how to get across, but having killed ten elks, with the skins of which they contra% ed to conatruet a canoe, this hardship was $OOll Overcome; but the joy which it diffused was as transient as disappointed hope. In forcing their me. lancholy way through the untravelled wilds between the Copper Mine River and the Great Bear Lake, they fell completely short of provisions, and were for many da►s under the necessity of subsisting upon sea weeds, and a powder produced from pounding the withered bones of the food which they had al ready committed. In this struggle betwixt the love of life and the dread of it death that must be tent. fyilig to ad mankind, Mr. Wood, nine Canadians, and au Esqusniaux, hell untimelyand regretted vic tims ; sod had not the survivors, who, for several days, were driven to the necessity of prolonging a miserable exporter, by feeding upon the tattered reinnards of their shoes, and, we fear, upon a more forbidding and unpalatable fare, exerted themselves by a siper-human rtf.rt to reach the Great Bear Cake, it is probable that they would haveall suffer ed the mo►t exquisite and appalling martyrdom. Here they found the heed► and the bleached bones of the runnels that had set ved them for last winter's pros isious, wlnchath.rded them the melancholy mgre dienta for prill:”Vilig the vital spark, until their arrival at some post of the Iludsou's Buy Company. It is said, that upon the arrival of this surviving party of the expedition et Slave Lake. the Canadians there were very nigh breaking forth into souse al outrage, when they found that their for mer comrades, instead of returnieg with the expe dition, had been lost fur ever; but we understand that no serious injury has transpired in consequence of this very !littoral illsiippOlutamo.

What peOportion of the watches that are, generally "'peek ing, used in Ireland , do yuu believe, pay any duty at all ? Any one baying a watch in Eitgland, of course brings it over free of any duty; but 1 du east couctive the duty vu watchesla worth notice. A. watches need in thie cnuntry must be either brought from England, or bought here, is out the greater peoportion of watched that come brooch: user by private individual., so as to pay no duty !—No, I think gut ; I think there ate • greet mauy more watches come through the Custom house I here, than are brought by private in•li•idools; hot private persons. 1 behave, ate of opinion, that there is that 10 per trot. dilly tau watilies as well as on jewellery, and therefore they will nut purchase here, if they cau have au opportunity Of purchasing its England. That is the effect, you think. produced upon jewellery ?-•-• Yes; pennies tell me so constantly. The 10 per cent. duty operates only as • brandy on pur chases In End end ?—Thar is exactly the case, to the pejo. duce of the Irish shopkeeper. How du you think the taking off the len per rent duly would operate on the persons engaged nt the manufacture? —We base had • meeting. within slits fortnight or three weeks, of the preemie engaged; it was caused by a notice from Mr. Houghton, I 'look, and the Committee that suet at the Weavers' Hall, directed to the master of the gold. slant's., that he would call together the Corporation, that they moalat depute one from among them, ur more, to job. aid rotifer with them in applying here to this Board to have the duties continued ; it gave nu alternative whether we should take the opposite course or not. 1 attended that meeting, and to skew how little it was coosieleied worthy of Notice, for the manufactory is reduced to a very low ebb, there was scarcely uny one attended but the Master and W'srelens, and the meeting beteg so small, I objected to our entering on silty rt SOIOIIOIIS to secund Mr. Haughtun'a •iews, and said it would be better to have • public ad vertisement, calling ou the trade generally to consider the propriety of petitiening to have than taken off or con tinued. At that meeting, so called, a very few more attended, but they ultimately came to a resolution of I acting fur theniselvea, in forming a Committee to draw up resolutions, to tlie effect that they thought they should be better off by having the duties coutioned; and 1 will stale the grounds on which they sidled : the shopkeeper, who had not much meanie, snail, of you take the ditties off, you will have from all pacts of England here speculators, as they have in Beth and Cheltenham, and other pieces, with great gilantitita of goods, that when they cannot sell them to the trade, they will try to put elf by auction, and that will de_ limy us : and again, others will come over here maitufactur. ere, with a good stuck, and when they will not credit me sod others, they will go to tenant houses where they know they can leave that stuck, and rather than take them back they will leave them on sale or return, sod therefore I am de. ' , toyed by that, because 'lvey with not leave them with me ; then those who have gnat stocks, that get them in free, thought that everyone would be on a level with them, and that the present advaulages they have they would be de. poired of. Whit do you menu by " get them la free?"—That get them in prevatrly. By smuggling?—Ye.; other shopkeepers, but not all, say so; some of them, and arsine niesnufactorers, joined toe in tbinkina the duties should be taken off, but the majority were for their besug continued; earn silversmiths, serest it was the, the duties should be taken off, voted in that trout of way by iliflitenee, because there is a bounty fur getting plate iu now; it there was no duty uuw, 'twee nuuld • be no drvulmrk of eighiceo-prier and yet the polity of the people seduced them to vote against that ; the duty here is but one shilling au ounce, they pay the shillaig an ounce, drawing hack the titbit eu•peture; they said they should Out like to injure their brother wtokmeu in the jew ellery trade; told they went in far as this, that if the trade was open the-1e would be better work got fruits England, on celesta. a terms than it is now hod, and that they should be injured. Du you think that the Union duties are the cause of a great deal of smuggling lute Irelautil?-1 base so doubt of it. Do you believe that the great proportion of the goods ap plying to your parneular trade., lartltlghl Oyer frum England to Ireland, pay the duty ?-1 be fancy jewellery, 1 brio ve, dues not. Does fancy jewellery sometimes come under the head of ptivaie property?-1 refer Iti that lair the shopkeeper sad pt iv•te iooperty both. In what articles du you think the smuggling principally takes place E-1 thit.k trinkets of every kind, ecale, neck laces, toad su on; 1 think that very few of those pay the duly. Witold it be a great advantage to the plate manufacturers in Ireland if they were permitted, by a free nits - repulse, to have many parts of their articles whirls are muscle in F.nalitied meat over with a view to being applied to the Isiah plate !
