Humanity demands that this search should not be given up until the searchers shall have passed through the Arctic Basin and out into the Pacific Ocean, and until sueh a course be pursued, the fate of our missing country men can never be ascertained.

Mr. BRIERLY afterwards read a paper describi ng the visit of her Majesty's ship Meander to Tongtabooin June, 1850, and giving some information as to the condition of the Friendly Islands. Views of the island scenery were exhibited, with some specimens of native cloth and utensils, and portraits of some of the chiefs, amongst others that of George Tabou, or King of the Friendly Islands, with his autograph. The King has professed Christsanity for twenty-one years past, and was described as a very intelligent person. Amongst the sketches was one of the entrance of a pah, at Bea, where Captain Croker, of her Majesty's ship Favourite, was killed in 1840, in a skirmish be tween the Christian and heathen parties in the island. NAVAL INTELLIGEN CE. DEATH OF REAR-ADMIRAL DALY, C.B. - Rear- Admiral of the Red Cuthbert Featherstone Daly, C. 8., died at Haye's-place, Lisson-grove, a few days since. This gallant officer was on the reserve half pay list, consequently no promotion will take place on account of his decease. He served afloat only 13 years, and his distinguished career during that time is thus epitomised in the " Naval Biography :"- " Cuthbert Featherstone Daly is second son of the late Denis Daly, Esq., of Castle Daly, county West meath, by Miss Harriet King; brother of Denis Daly, Esq , brigade-major at Vortsmouth ; and uncle of Lieutenant John Daly, R.N. This officer entered the navy February 17, 1794, as first-class volunteer on board the Andromache, 38 ; was lieutenant (com mission dated September 30, 1500) of the Atlas, 98, until April, 1802, and appointed senior, March 1, 1803, of the Arrow, of 28 32-pounder car ronades and 132 men, Captain Richard Budd Vincent; he subsequently, in June, 1304, obtained the official praise of that officer for the spirited manner in which, with the boats, he boarded, cut adrift, and then destroyed, under the island of Fano, at the entrance of the Adriatic, L'Actif, French privateer, of 4 guns, although moored with three anchors, attached by a hawser from the mast head to the cliff above her, and defended by a heavy cross-fire from the crew on board, and from the rock, beach, and houses. On February 4, 1805, the Arrow, and her consort the Acheron bomb, were both captured by the French 40 and 38 gun frigates llor i ticnoo tuna INsoorieurtHdo, tator a nohlo resistance of several hours, in which the former ship lost 13 men killed and 27 wounded, and was so shattered that she immediately afterwards settled on her beam-ends and went down. Lieutenant Daly, who was detained a prisoner at Carthagena until the following July, next became first of the Diadem 64, Commodore Sir Ho me Popham, and, on proceeding to the Cape of Good Hope, was present at its surrender to the British in January, 1809. He was then sent home with the dispatches in the Seahorse transport, and on his ar rival was promoted to the rank of commander, April 10, 1806. Assuming charge, January 8, 1107, of the Comet, of 18 guns, Captain Daly next cruised with great activity on the north coast of Spain, where, in command of four boats belonging to his own vessel and to the Cossack, he landed June 23, 1808, spiked all the guns in Fort St. Salvador de Ano and Fort Sedra, near the town of St. Andero, and was severely scorched in destroying two magazines. On August 11, following, he very gallantly went in pursuit of three of the enemy's cor vettes, one of which, La Sylphe, of le guns, he ulti mately brought to close action, and in twenty minutes compelled to surrender. For his distinguished con duct on this occasion he was rewarded with a poet com mission, dated on the 18th of the same month. From May 15 to July 14, 1812, he afterwards command e d the Barham, 74, in the North Sea, but since the latter period he has been on half-pay. His advancement to nag-rank took place November 9, 1846. Rear-Ad miral Daly, who received re wards, both honorary and pecuniary, from the Patriotic Fund, was nominated a C. 8., July 20,1838, and awarded the good service pension, Feb. 19, 1842. He was left a widower with several children, Aug. 14, 1841." AWFULLY SUDDEN Deam.-Lieutentint F. Gray, of Southsea (1814), attended on Sunday evening the service at the new church of St. Jude. He was taken ill, and was carried into the vestry-room, when it was found that life was extinct. Disease of the heart is said to have been the cause of his death. Lieutenant A. O. Hansard (1844) died on the 3d instant at Oxford. Fly, 14, Commander Oliver, was mustered and in spected at Devonport on Saturday, 14 Flag-Captain Lowe, of the Impregnable, and went into harbour yesterday to be paid off. Havannah, 19, Captain Erskine, arrived at Devon port from Portsmouth and New Zealand on Sunday morning, at eleven A.M. She was to be mustered and inspected yesterday morning by Flag-Captain Lowe, and come into harbour in the afternoon to be paid off.

The westerly winds have detained her since Sunday. FI?IGHTFULNE COLLIERY EXPL AR SHEFFIELD. OSION The colliery district around Sheffield, bo noted for disastrous mining explosions, was the scene of another sad calamity on Saturday last. Three persons have perished in the Woodthorpe colliery, two ;miles and a half south of Sheffield, worked by Mr. John Rhodes the l essee . The three colliers are Charles Stones, of Glead less, aged 23, unmarried; Samuel Bacon and William Ramsden, youths about eighteen years of age, both of Handsworth Woodhouse. They were killed by a tre mendous explosion from fire damp, which took place at half-past three o'clock on Saturday afternoon, an hour or so after all but six or tight hands'had left the pit. There was one avenue in the pit that was surcharged with inflammable gas, so that all the colliers avoided entering it with expose d l i ghts, but the yout h Ramsden, though a collier, was a str a nger there.

This Company being now completely registered, the Directors take the earliest opportunity of laying before the Shareholders a statement of its progress and prospects. • It may be confidently asserted that no Company was ever brought before the public with equal prospect of speedy and successful results. The prompt assistance afforded by the Shareholders to the Direc tors, and the perfect confidence in the management displayed by them, have enabled the Directors to take such steps as must ensure an enormous dividend within a few months. Sir Henry Huntley, the resident Director In California, hail been in that country five months, and the course adopted by the Directors for carrying out this enterprise results from the experience obtained by him during that period. The instructions given to Sir Henry Hunt cy were, in effect, that he should make every possible inquiry relative to the state of the country, the tenure of land, the com parative merits of the different quartz veins in the several districts of California, and after mature deliberation to advise the Directors as to their best course of proceeding, and to take such measures as would enable them to carry out his views as speedily as possible. Following these instructions, he has secured fer the benefit of the Company', sufficient lands for all mining purposes ; but he is clearly of opinion, that for the present, at least, it is not desirable to under take mining operations, but to crush and amalgamate quartz to be supplied by those who are possess ei of mines, and have raised the quarts. With the assistance of some gentlemen of great experience in geology and mining matters, he has inspected and tested a great variety of veins in the Mariposa, Nevada, Grass Valley, and other districts, and has come to the conclusion, upon sound reasons, that the vicinity of Grass Valley and Nevada City, is that which affords the greatest advantages for car. rying on our enterprise. lie has, therefore, entered into an agree ment with some American gentlemen, who have formed a company, and have opened, and, to a considerable extent, worked a vein of quartz, distant about three miles from Grass:Valley and Nevada City, and about thirty miles from Sacramento City, to crush and amalgamate the quartz to be raised from the mine ecru d cru hed by them. By means of machinery, he has already and amalgamated considerable quantities of the quartz sup plied him from this mine; and the result of his operations has been to satisfy himself that the vein is of a full average richness, and that the locality oilers many important advantages in the way of water, fuel, means of transit, &c., &c. He has, there fore, entered into a formal agreement with that Comby pa them with as which, in a few words, amou nts to this : he is to be supplied much quartz as his machinery shall be found capable of crushing; the quartz is to be deposited at the mills free of expense ; he is to crush and amalgamate it at his own expense, and he gold produced is to be divided equally and between the owners of the vein and our Company. Formal agreements for carrying out the above arrangement fairly and honestly, and without any copartnership, have been entered into. Steam-engines and machinery estimated to crush about thirty tons of quartz a day, with fiends sufficient for it i motion, have been placed under the control of Sir Henryry pu Huntley ; n and, unless some unexpected delay has arisen, the machinery is now actually at work, and a return will be made about Christmas next. For the satisfaction of the existiag shareholders of this hemCopany, and without wishing, in any manner, to deteriorate from merits of other Companies, the Directors are desirous of calling attention pasome of the m rs n ore prominent advantages possessed by this Com ny over otheow in the field. Shareholders in other Companies must mainly rely upon reports sent over by persons resident n se lling the mine; we rely upon the reports of our own Director and his practical assistants on the spot, whose only interest is to give us facts. The Directors of other Companies generally base the estimate of the value of their mine upon calculations founded on experiments upon a few pieces of specimen quartz, sent over to this countr y for the express purpose ewevertising the calculma commodity offered for sale to the B r itish public ; found our upon experiments tried, during several weeks, on quartz raised from the mine, and crushed and amalgamated by our own Superintendent, and with our 'own machinery and apparatus. Other Companies propose to incur the expense and risk of carrying out mining operations upon their vein, before the quartz arrives at their mill, and, should their labours prove successful, they must then pay out of their profits large per-centages for obtaining their leases, and large royal ties to their lessors ; whereas we have secured as much quartz as our machinery is capable of crushing, the title to which iss as secure or as that of any other company, unfettered by any retg royalty. The half of the produce to be paid by this Compan to the par ties who supply us , free of expense, with the quartz, briny g in fact merely equivalent to the dividend upon at the outlay of capita l thel ex pended in raising the q uartz, and lodging it the mill. new companies, unlike this, must be a considerable time before their angements and machinery ca be ready f carrying out their schemes—this Company alone is actually at work or . The paid-up capital of the Company will not exceed 20,0001. An almost certain estimate of the produce of our machinery can be formed, and, from the calculations made, the Directors confidently anticipate being able even at the most moderate estimate, to afford a dividend of 200 per cent., at the least, within the next twelve months. Accenting to tha data furnithed to us, the quartz whiel ch we &raison, working yields upon an average 4d. per pound, or 17s. 4d. ga per c a or 371. Ss. Bd. per ton ; and.. as we can crush and ' amalgamate at least 20 tens per diem, that would amount- to 1461. 135. 4d., or 3731. Gs. Bd. per diem as the share of made, this Company.based By the peculiar arran g ements this Company has upon practical experience, the economy in working expenses must necessarily be such as to render the current outlay most trifling. In case circumstances should induce the Directors to alter the system now adopted, and lead them to undertake mining operations of their own, arrangements have been made securing four distinct sites, most carefully selected for their eligibility for milling' pur poses, and Sir Henry Huntley has on the spot Cornish miners who wen t, out with him, and who have voluntarily retendered him their services. Tile Ben gentlemen who formed the Provisional Committee of this Company, have added to their number several gentlemen possessing the acquaintance and entire confidence of a very large body of Shareholders in the provincial districts. To add such men to the Dire toy was due to those Shareholders who have in fact estab lished and nobly supported this Company. Measures will be taken for further augmetaing the Directory, and a Special General Meet ing of the Shareholders will be convened for the middle of January.a In conclusion,. the Directors beg to offer their best thanks to the Shareholders for the uniform support they have received, and they pledge themselves that the affairs of this Company shall be con ducted with the most rigid economy, and with the sole view of for warding the interest of the Shareholders. The Directors beg to call the attentions Shar e this Company, it holders particularly to the fact that , from t he s y stem adop by can not be affected by the question now agitated between the holders of leases and Colonel Fremont or his agents. The district selected for the operations of this Company is far removed from the tract claimed by Colonel Fremont.

P ARIS IN A STATE OF SIEGE. THE ASSEMBLY DISMISSED. General Officers, the Leaders of Party, arrested and sent to Prison, the Council of State Dissolved, and Louis Napoleon lie Dictator. This astounding intelligence, transmitted from Paris in a few minutes, nearly frightened London from its propriety on Tues day last, ye Vrom all we can learn the President completely follolra the example set in the British metropolis years ago, even tot he clbse, for when he had effected the mighty change he appealed to the people, whose support alone he craved. The change to which we refer was that which in forty-eight hours was accomplished by E. MOSES and SON. The monopolists were more formidable than the General Assembly, and they were not without leaders, but Messrs. E. MOSES and SONS crushed them at once by lowering the price of a mall's clothes fifty per cent., an nd d app ong doings to the peop l e . What was the result ? he extortion a wrof those they displaced was apparent, and the people exulted in the change. They gladly seized upon the benefits extended to them, and supported the firm.

Mullins and Paddison, The want of a wholesome and efficient water supply is morese verely felt south of the Thames than in any other part of the metro polis. The Sanitary Commissioners say the present supply there is " wholly unfit for use, and is highly dangerous to the health of the persons who drink it." The Company has for its object the supply of pure water at con stant and high service, and has received the most cordial support from the proprietors, ratepayers, and inhabitants In general of this largo district, evidenced by their numerous petitions and by the re solutions of public bodies, such as the Quarter Sessions, the District Board of Health, &c. It has long been known that the Wandle water is the purest of any within practicable distance of the Metropolis (see the public evidence taken before the Committees of the House of Cammons.) From this source a minimum supply of 27,000,000 of gallons daily can be ob tained without injury to any one. The present supply of Thames water ir about 9,000,000. The Company, either through the instrumentality of the existing Companies, or by parochial or other public bodies, or their own means, will be able to send " unintermittent streams of cool, fresh lucid water, sparkling and pure, up every ceart and alley, and to the very garrets of the meanest houses, at a very low rate of charge." And these essentials they can guarantee; because, besides the ad mitted superiority of the Wand!. water, which in its nataral state possesses a greater " freedom from putrescible organic matter," and from " discoloration," as well as greater " brightness, clearness, softness, and coolness," than any others, this Company's plats com prises a complete system of intercepting drainage to carry off the impurities of mills and houses—an original and perfect method of nitration (Invented by Mr. F. P. Thompson, the Engineer to the Company), to be applied in the grand reservoir itself, 160 feet above Trinity high water mark, whence it will flow in uninterrupted distrVution by mere gravity to the thousands of buildings in the district, in a state as cool and limpid as any well water—and lastly, because the Company apply by their Bill for a compulsory limitation of profits, so that the abuse of high charges will here be an impos sibility, whilst there will be sufficient profit to afford a liberal remu neration to the shareholders. The Thames water throughout contains sulphates and chlorides of some sort, and the water at Ditton, besides these, is impregnated with the sewerage of Hampton-court and other districts, compre hending a population of three-quarters of a million. "No amount of boiling can separate the sulphates and chlorides"—they will re main and constitute a permanent hardness. In the Wandle water there is no sulphate or chloride of any sort ; but there is present the carbonate of soda, which renders it admirable for all domestic pur poses, and to such " water M. Soyer gives a preference for tea making, even over distilled water." Application for the remaining shares to be made to Messrs. Sheppard and Sons, 28, Threadneedle-street, City, and to the Secre tary, at the Temporary Offices, 15, Tokenhouse-yard, Lothbury, where prospectuses and all other information may be obtained.

WEST WHEAL MINING COMPANY. A meeting of the shareholders of this company was held yesterday at the office, 57, Broad-street, for the pur pose of dissolving the company, James Hearne, Esq., presided. The requisition convening the meeting was read by the Secretary, and it appeared that the meeting was called in consequence of a resolution passed on the 17th of last month, and which was unanimously agreed to, to the effect that a meeting should be called to dissolve the company. Mr. MACKEY asked the Secretary to inform them of the number of shares that were represented at the meet ing alluded to. The SECRETARY said that the number was 1,310, the total number of shares being 3,755; and of these 2,801 had sent in their proxies, while the dead only required that there should be 2,787 represented as the necessary number to dissolve the company. After this explanation,' Mr. CUMBERLAND moved a resolution to the effect, that the company or association called the West Wheal Copper and Tin Mining Association. as established by deed of settlement dated the 18th of October, 1838, should be dissolved; and the motion having been seconded was agreed to. _ It appeared, however, that according to the deed of settlement another meeting must be called to confirm the above resolution before it can be deemed final. r e a A ld N of D th U e EL 10th, says, "The de yofFtumn man niscEo was found The body of yesterday morning within a few hundred yards of the p r i son b r i g , on the road winding round the hill near th e nort h b eac h. It was horribly cut and gashed with a k n if e i n 1 8 or 20 places, seven or night of the wounds being mortal. The body was lying in a natural position, with the head resting on the arm, and in the vicinity there were no marks of a struggle and no traces of bl oo d. M r . G ra y, the city sexton, held an inquest in the afternoon. The name of the murdered man proved to be San Miguel—the author of this horrible ,deed a Mexican, named Manoelito, now in the city. It appears that on Wednesday night he and the deceased were in one of the wretched dens in Cat or Murderer's-alley, kept by a Mexican woman, and that a quarrel took place between them, which it was agreed to settle by mortal combat, after the fashion of Mexican duels. The two parties stated out together, unaccompanied by friends or witnesses, and fought by moonlight. Tho result was as above stated. The usual manner of fighting among the Mexicans is to wrap their scrap in many folds round their left arm, thus forming a kind of guard or shield, and, dagger in hand, strike with the right. In the present instance, judging from the multitude of mortal wounds, some of them must have been given after the deceased was vanguished, perhaps dead. Mancelito boasted of the act, and told a monte dealer, and several Mexican women that he had put San Miguel to death. The women, when applied to by the police, at first swore positively that they knew nothing of the transaction; finally the truth was extracted from them and search made for him. He had not been ar rested at a late hour last night, but will unquestionably be captured, as he has bee n seen sin ce the murder walk ingabout w ithout his scrap, apparently having no idea of flying." DEATH BY CHOKING.—On Friday an inquest was held before Mr. Baker, at the King's Arms, Bow, relative to the death of Henry Watche r, a g ed 52, a tradesman carrying on businees in High-street. It appeared that on Sunday last the deceased invited several members of his family to spend the day with him. They were at dinner, when sud denly deceased was observed to be gasping for breath, and he fell back in his chair. Ills children went to his assist ance, who found that he was unable to swallow, and that a piece of meat had stopped in the windpipe. A surgeon was sent for, but by the time he arrived life was extinct. Verdict, " Accidental Death."

SMITHFIELD CLUB CATTLE SHOW. We were last night favoured with :a private view of the stock entered for :exhibition at the Smithfield Club Cattle Show of the present year, at the specious premises known as the Bazaar, in King-street, Portman-square. As compared with the entries at the preceding show, the number at the present one shows a trifling diminution ; the falling off, however, in numbers, is more than made up by the generally improved character of the stock exhibited. Probably at no previous exhibition has there been so much de serving of real praise, or more worthy the attention of those interested in this important department of agricultural occupation of grazing, as in the present one. There is no feature more deserving of atten tion in the exhibition of the present year than the specimens which illustrate the great advance which has been made in bringing young classes to an early maturity. The proportion ;which the young classes bear to the older ones is exceedingly favourable, and is a proof that the exertions of the Club during the past few years have not been lost upon our feeders. The importance to our graziers of any system which will enable them to bring their young " stock" as early as possible to maturity can not be overrated, and we are happy to see that the labours of the Club in this direction have been so successful. Passing to the next great feature of the show, it will be found, from the awards of the judges, which we give below, that among oxen and steers a large preponderance of the prizes has been carried off by the Herefords; and of cows and heifers, the most successful as a class have been the " short horns." A third feature worthy of notice is that in pigs, the first prize in each of the three classes, with of course the gold medal, has been carried off by Mr. Coate, of Hammoon, near Blandford, Dorset, for his " im proved Dorset pigs," a circumstance, we believe, un paralleled in the history of the show. Of individual specimens deserving of more particu lar notice, we may mention a fine four years and ten months old Hereford ox, shown by Mr. Heath, of Ludham Hall, Norfolk, one of our most successful feeders, to which the first prize of 30 sovereigns and a silver medal to the breeder has been awarded. In the second class, which includes oxen or steers of any breed, between three and four years old, a fine symme trical and well-proportioned Hereford, shown by Mr. Longmore, of Salop, rewarded with a first prize of 30 sovereigns and a silver medal to the breeder, is also deserving of notice; and we may mention also, in this class, a three years and nine months old Here ford, shown by Mr. Heath ; and a three years and eleven months Hereford, exhibited by his Royal Highness Prince Albert ; as also one by his Royal Highness in the third class. A curious specimen, forwarded by the Earl of Derby, as executor of the late Earl, a two year and eight months old Brahmin and short-horned ox, attracted considerable notice. The animal is exceedingly well formed, active, and, from his apparent restless character, it is a matter of surprise how he has made so much flesh. The Earl of Leicester shows a fine four year and one month old, and a three Jyear and eight months old pure North Devon in Classes 4 and 5, both of which have been worthily honoured by the decision of the judges. In Class 7, Mr. Samuel Druce, of Eyns ham, Oxford, shows a short-horned and Hereford heifer, bred by himself, to which the gold medal has been awarded. , An important feature in con nexion with this animal is, that one of the principal ingredients of the food upon which it was fed was linseed compound. At a time when the attention of our agriculturists is so generally di rected to the extension of flax culture, it is a matter of importance for them thus to have an opportunity of witnessing to what advantage the flax seed may be applied for, the purpose of fattening cattle. The heifer shown by Mr. Druce may fairly challenge competition with the best animal in the exhibition, and while nearly the whole of its rivals were fed upon ordinary linseed cake, made up of the refuse of the foreign oil crusher, imported into this country, its exhibitor more wisely determined to cultivate, with considerable profit to himself, his own flax, arid with a portion of the seed obtain increased facilities for feeding his stock. We were informed, upon inquiry, that the feeder is in the habit of grinding together the flax seed and wheat or barley, and forming of the meal a kind of " gruel," which was mixed with chaff or other articles of dry food, and the compound thus forme dmar's, was given to his cattle, who thrived re ,:tiitaaiy- -upou-it. We would xecloiamend those vvliolittve any - doubts a the value of h -ninia-gro ivn , flax seed for fattening purposes, to avail themselves of the opportunity of examining this heifer of Mr. Drum's. Of the sheep exhibited, the most striking specimens are a pen of three twenty-one months' old South Downs ' bred and fed by the Duke of Richmond, re warded with the highest medal; a pen of three twenty months' old South Downs, by Mr. Overman, of Norfolk ; a pen of three twenty months' old Leices tars, by Mr. Bradshaw, of Burley, near Oakham, Rutland; three twenty-one months' old Leicesters, by Mr. R. P. Hall, of Bawtry, Notts ; and three remarkably fine specimens of Cotswolds, bred and fed by Mr. Robert Beman, of Moreton, Gloucester. Some good South Downs are also shown by Prince Albert, by Mr. J. V. Shelley, the Marquis of Exeter, and Mr. A. Beisley. As we have already stated, Mr. Coate has taken the first prizes in each of the three classes of pigs for his improved Dorsets; they are remarkably fine speci mens. Two pens of Bedford rind Suffolk pigs, shown by Prince Albert; one by the Earl of Radnor, of the famed Coleshill breed ; and an immense two-year and-nine-months-old Hereford and Sussex pig, bred and fed by Mr. Culliford, of ELayling Island, are also deserving of notice. It would be impossible for us, in our limited space, to notice individually the various specimens which we might consider worthy of remark, and we must there fore refer our readers to the list of prizes given below for the names of the successful exhibitors, and to the show itself, for the many fine specimens which it con tains. To those disposed to adopt the latter course we may state that great improvements and enlarge ments have been effected by Mr. Boullnois, and that the arrangements are now so complete that the ani mals may be inspected with the greatest ease, and that ladies, even though not attired ala Bloomer, may safely promenade the clei ally, spacious, and well•ventilated pathways; while to others interested in the perusal of the prize list sine may state that the awards appear to have been well and carefully bestowed.

A meeting of this society was held last evening ; Sir Roderick Murchison in the chair. The SECEBTARY read the following letter from Captain Penny, containing some further particulars of the search for Sir John Franklin : " Pi) )no tar, A borotito. , Do°, S, 7 R !II - sk,--1 beg to lay before you, and the scientific body to which you belong, a few observations which came under my notice during my late voyage iu search of Sir John Franklin, which I consider of great importance at the present critical moment. `• On the 25th of August, 1850, having joined Cap tain Ommanney on the west side of Wellington Channel, and seen the traces found by him of the missing ships, I considered it my proper course to re turn to the eastern shore of the channel, with the view of examining those parts more closely than had been done before. " The result of my return was most satisfactory, four miles is s northsnd for not until th en were th e w i nter quarters of the missing ships di scovere d ; an d , w h at is of still more importance in my es ti ma ti on as regards the route o f the missing shi p s , a wwaetsoth from teht t upon he p position s ti o heightn occupiedabo ut by the ships. This tent was evidently for the purpose of watching every move of the ice in Wellington Channel. We also saw the ruts of sledges going and returning from making observations upon the channel, and in the tent we found a small piece of paper with the words to be called,'—the other part of which must have been torn off, thus evidently showing that a regular watch bad been kept. "On the sth of September, 1850, from the top of Cape Spencer, a height of at least 730 feet, open water was observed beyond the fixed ice in the channel. The strong easterly gales which we experienced some time previous to the above date had counteracted the prevailing current from the westward, and had driven the ice through Queen Victoria Channel into the Arctic Basin. "On the 7th of September a strong northerly gale brought away fifteen miles of ice down Wellington Channel, leaving only about fifteen miles of ice be tween the two seas. " Having commenced our travelling on the 13th of April, 1851, I came upon water and decayed ice on the 15th of May, in the channel between Cornwallis Land and Baillie Hamilton Island, obliging isle to re turn by the east of the said island, and then to the north we gained Point Surprise, in lat. 76 2, long. 95 55. The water washed the Point at my feet, and extended 25 miles west. The sky indicated water to the north round Dundas Island. " The moment I stood upon Point Surprise, with a full view to the west, I exclaimed, Through this channel Sir John Franklin has gone in clear water. Oh ! for a boat.' With this conviction on my mind I returned with the determination to use every exertion to get a boat up to this water. " On the 29th of the same month Messrs. Goodsir and Marshall, advancing with their party along the shore of Cornwallis Land, were forced to return for water with still thirty days' provision upon their sledges. " Again, on the 31st May, Captain Stewart, having advanced as far as Cape Becher by the east side of the channel and along Albert Land, came to water, and from a height of 700 feet found nothing but open sailing ice as far as the eye could reach, to the west and north-west. _ _ ...._ " On the 6th of June a boat was fully equipped, and a journey commenced for Victoria Chan ne l, of the party having only returned 34 hours from a journey of 31 days. On the 17th of the same 96 month h t 1 t h r b e e r e o uddgaeyh deg. west, brought boat was launched into the wat er in long. west, and continued to contend for thirty-three adverse winds and rapid tid es, the drifting ice in su c h quantities tioe east ward as to block up the various channels between the islands, leaving an open sea beyond, seen f rom the Island.s3lo isutmostisland d e c x o e a r s - t t t i o o p n s o f w ß e r e e l 1 l e i o e h Hm a m a p e l l r t e e d n : that iy of miles were examined by th e b oat party ; but had a strong easterly wind prevailed for only a short time, so as to counteract the effects of the westerly current, what thatthe even that tf might lt is have ul y n o e conviction o b ov e i n doneone t iwith tidefl a o t ws small fr boat? omthe north-west in Victoria Channel, although there is a regular rise a n d falloffour feet ; still in 12 hoursthe current t o the seemed to runtchhe I greate v r e pnaort of h doubt, was eastward whi , greatly influenced by the strong N.W. and W.N.W. winds which prevailed for a whole month ; but amongst isla n d s and narrow channels one would re quire longer time for making observations to enable him to speak with certainty on this subject. " In Davis's Straits and Baftin's Bay the tide flows from the south, in Lancaster Sound it flows from the east. " With the knowledge we have acquired by our late search, who can now doubt the route Sir John Franklin has pursued ? A watch tent to observe every move in the Strait, and the evident signs of a hasty departure, amount in my mind to a conviction that he had passed in open water through Wellington 1 Strait and Victoria Channel, and along Prince Albert's Land, which I am stronglyoaftiolh th ex tends 500 miles N.W.; and until distance is reached no further traces will be discovered. 1 " Had not Sir John Franklin been farther advanced, would not I have found traces of him on the islands I searched, c about the headlands where birds build LONDON HONORARY BOARD, George Young, Esq., 47, Wimp°le-street and Mark-lane.
