to the issabionos of the Modal sal Capper Mine Rivers,
the water being so high la the former,- that although we
had on board full cares we did not touch a stone. The
latter stream wee sag severed with ice, which did not break
up nal the Mb
About aeon, ea the Ugh, there being a clear passage we
conimeaced the descent of the river, more fur the purpose
of getting to better hunting grounds than for any other ob-
ject, as the leans was et ill too early fur the ice ou the mast
to be broken up. In the evening we encamped on the
great bend of the river, about seven miles above the first
rapid. Here we remained two days, during which six deer
and four musk cattle were shot; the greater pert of their
fiesh was partially dried over • fire for future use.
23rd June.—ln the evening we ran down to the rapid
which looked so formidable, owing to the great height of
the water, that the stuntmen; although daring almost to
recklessness, would not venture to ran the boats down,
even without their cargoes.
Neat day • portage was made and the boats launched
over • point of rocks. Finding some of the rapids • few
miles further down so very rough, that, notwithetanding
the excellent qualities of our boats, they shipped much
water, we encamped again to allow the river to subside a
liule, before passing through the more dangerous portions
of the stream.
During our stay of four days the water fell but little', and
my patience being exhausted we continued our voyage. At
every rapid, notwithstanding the care and coolness of the
steersmen, much water woo shipped, and when we came to
the Escape rapid we found the reek that had endangered
the safety of Simpson's boat, in 1838, wes completely hid
from view, showing thereby that the height of water
was considerably greater now than at that period. We
passed down in safety, but the boats were nearly half
filled. In the evening we encamped et the Bloody Fall,
sad bad not been there more than 15 minutes when 40
salmon were taken in a net set in the eddy below the fall.
Having deposited a bog of pemican and a bale of dry
meat, en cache, in a small island, we proceeded to the
mouth of the river, near which we remained for some time,
killing deer, fish, and geese enough to support the party.
The weather was extremely beautiful, and the ice along
shore wasted fast, under the influence of the sun's rays.
On the sth July a slight breeze from the south opened a
narrow channel along shore to the eastward, of which im-
mediate advantage was taken, and we gained 22 miles be-
fore evening, when we came again to the fixed ice.

a point when the coast tuned abruptly to the north.
Tracing it for eight miles, we head annals's@ am to what
looked like the head of a bay, but Cl Closer examination, a
very narrow channel leading northward was discovered.
It was so completely blocked up with ice, as to be unna-
vigable.
Altering our mune to 8.8. E., we ran round the south
end of Taylor Island ; eo named, as a tribute of respect to
the memory of the late much regretted president of the
United States. We here got among very henry and closely
packed ice, which we anticipated, from having some hours
before seen several very large floes aground in five fa-
thoms water. The ebb tide being strong in our favour, we
made good progress to the north eastward, running some
risk occasionally of being nipped between the floating and
grounded muses.
About 8 p.m. we landed for a short time, and then
pushed on again, and at Ilb. 40m., on the 2nd August, put
on shore for the night, under shelter of the most easterly
point of the island, on the outer extremity of which the ice
was forced up so as to form au insurmountable barrier to
further advance. The place at which we lauded and its
neighbourhood were barren in the extreme. Scarcely a
vestige of vegetation, and not a hit of drift wood, were to be
seen: nothing hut a level tenet of light grey coloured lime-
stone, which had been forted up in immense blocks, close to
the shore, by the pressure of the ice. The stone was in
many places covered with minute brown-coloured crystals.
Next day our position was ascertained by observation to
be in latitude 69 deg. 12 min. 20 see. N.; longitude by
chronometer, 101 deg. 68 min. 15 see. W. The variation of
the compass was found to be 68 deg. 68 min. E. ; but as the
needle was extremely sluggish, and evidently acted upon by
local attraction, little reliance could be placed upon it.
It will be observed that wo had been extremely fortunate,
and had ;made an excellent run of more than one hundred
miles, without a single stoppage, except the detention re-
%Waite kw masking.
During the whole of the 3rd August, there was a pis
has north, with heavy squalls, and showers of 1111114
sad snow. In tho intervals between the showers, had
could be seen to the N.W. by N., and N.E. (true), appar.
ready twelve or fifteen miles distant, but the horizon we
never suffleiently clear to permit a distinct view of it.
The weather on the 4th continued much the same, but
about 11 a.m. the wind fell a little, and having shifted a
pointer two to the westward, a lane of water along shore
was opened, up which we pulled to the N.W. until we
doubled some reefs which stretched out a few miles to sea-
ward. Hering rounded these, we got into open water, set
close-reefed soils, and stood towards land close-battled on the
starboard tack, steering W.S.W. There was an ugly chop-
ping sea running, but the boats behaved admirably, and a
run of little more than five miles brought us to the shore.
The wind again set in from the north, increasing to a pre-
fect gale, sad although we could gain ground pretty fast by
plying to windward, our slight-built craft strained so much
in the heavy seas that frequently washed over us (in tact
one of the boats bade plank split), that' we lowered sails
on gaining a partial shelter from the Land, and after a
tough pull of two miles, daring which we were sometimes
barely able to bald our ground, we entered a snug cove,
where we secured our boats. _

sth August —The weather was still stormy, and finding
that we could make no headway with the oars, our sails
were again set, and we turned up to windward until the
gale became too violent for our most reduced eanves ; there
was consequently no help for it but to put ashore, which we
did on the north side of a long narrow bay, having gained
about six miles. Satisfactory observations were here ob-
tained, giving latitude 69 deg. 20 min. as sec. N. • longitude
hy chronometer 102 dig. 30 min. 2 see. W., and variation
63 deg. 68 min. E.
On the 6th we could not start until the evening, and then
advanced only eight miles, at first to the N. by E., and
afterwards to the W.N.W., passing some limestone cliffs of
considerable altitude, faced with deep snow hank,.
A very thick and cold fug coming on, which encrusted
every article with ice, we landed and were soon snug in
our tents. Here a quantity of driftwood was head, being
the first we had seen of any size sines Isawbeg Cape
Alexander. The wood was poplar, and meet Use crews
on the bank' of the 5111.ensie, or some of the rivers
near it.
The well-marked cape on which we now were, was named
in honour of the Princess Royal. It presents a precipitous
front to the E. and N.E.
Next di} being clear and find, observations were obtained,
which gave the latitude 69 dog. 27 min. 6 nee. N., longitude
by chronometer 102 deg. 27 min. 12 sec. W., and variation
74 deg. 30 min. E. The bearings of several islands and
points in sight having been taken, we pulled out from shore
due north, towards the highest visible land, passing between
two islets near the shore. Wo were seven hours crossing,
the distance being fully twenty miles, and the current
during the greater part of the time against us. Soundings
were taken regularly, the greatest depth being fathoms
on a bottom of mud.
