docu men t

[PRICE 4D. STAMPED SD•

" Tlae Imperial Government, wishing to correspond
to the co. nfidence shown by the two Allied Powers in
gearanitee ing its loan, aecepted the principle of control
given to ti ie board.
it 16 the duty of the board to see that all the
money of th e loan is employed in the pursuit of the war,
and that this control shall not impede the service.
„ The sultan's Government, to facilitate this double
labour of the I;oard, submits to it the general budget,
since the commencement of the war, of the Ministers of
War and Marine, and a statement of all the extraordi-
nary expenses of the war.
"'The statement of accounts of the Minister of Fi-
nances submitted to the board comprises the budgetfrent
the 27th of May, 1853, to the 27th of September, 1855
—2B months.
"' In those 28 months the Treasury disbursed for ex.
trt:ordinary expenses of war, marine, and artillery,
3,015,588 purses, or 11,200,0001.
" ' Those accounts are divided into three periods :
"41. From the 27th of May, 1853, to the 12th of
March, .1854, the period of the Turkish financial year.
"' 2. From the 13th of March, 1854, to the 13th of
March, 1055, a whole year.
" ' 3. Prom the 13th of March, 1855, to the 27th of
September, 1855.
" ' Each period is divided into three categories—de-
partments of war, marine, and artillery.
" ' The first category consists of the expenses covered
by the ordinary budget ; and of the amount of 3,015,588
purses, or 11,200,0001., we find the sum of 1,462,139
purses, or 5,400,0001., covered by the budget allotted to
the throe departments.
" The second category consists of the expenses for
which the Treasury has been able to procure resources
and this figure amounts to 1,029,694 purses, 0r3,860,0004
"'The third category consists of the expenses covered
by the funds of the first loan,land the amount is 523,74
purses, or 1,940,0001.
" By the documents annexed the board will see that
the resources found by the Government, exclusive of the
budget, consists in—
" 1. 617,297 purses (2,286,2851.), the produce of the

complete were the plans, and so carefully had all th
contingencies been provided against, that in no point
was there a failure in carrying out his arrangements.
" The officers selected to lead the party were Mr.
Anderson, a chief factor of the company, and Mr. J. G.
Stewart, a chief trader—both well qualified by experi-
ence, courage, physical strength, &c., for the arduous
duty. The party consisted of these two officers and 14
men, and left Port Resolution, a port in the Hudson's-
bay Company on Great Slave Lake, on the 22d of June
last, in two bark canoes, in which they performed the peri-
lous voyage down Great Fish River—a river known to
the world for its dangers and horrors. From Mr.
Stewart we learn that he doubts that the party ever
could have got safely down that stream to the coast
bad it not been for the wonderful dexterity of the three
Iroquois voyageurs whom Sir George Simpson had pru-
dently forwarded from Lachine to join the expedition
—the three best men of his own canoe.
" The party reached the outlet or estuary of the river
on the 30th of July, and skirted along its eastern shore
as far as Point Beaufort, but found no traces to reward
their search. Thence they crossed over to Montreal
Island, 12 miles distant, lying near the western shore
of the estuary ; probably, in that crossing, incurring as
great peril as any in the gloomy record of Arctic travels,
pushing their bark canoes boldly out into the Arctic
Ocean, and forcing their way through drifting masses of
Arctic ice seven or eight feet thick. But they were pre-
pared to make any effort to reach the island, which, as
well as Point Aigle, near it, had been the place Dr.
Rae understood the Esquimaux to mean when describ-
ing where the white party perished in 1850 ; and they
had the melancholy satisfaction of procuring on
that very spot the fullest possible confirmation of
Dr. Rae's report. They also met Esqnimaux I n that
vicinity, who had seen the whites, and gave much vale-
able information. Suffice it to say that on the island
were discovered the remains of a boat, which had been
partially destroyed by the natives for the sake of the
wood and the metal fastenings.
" Although there was sufficient left to identify 't as
belonging to the Franklin Expedition—one fragment of
wood (now, as well as some other small relics, in posses.
sion of the Hudson Bay Company at Lachine) having
the name `Terror' branded on it, while another piece
had the name of Mr. Stanley (surgeon of the Erebus)
cut upon it, this latter being part of a snow-shoe,
evi-
dently of English manufacture, being made of oak, a
species of wood no man accustomed to use snow-shoes
would ever select for the purpose—no papers or books,
and no human remains were found ; nor was it likely,
as four years had elapsed since this tragedy was enacted
upon a low sandy beach, exposed to the storms of four
Arctic winters, and there is little doubt that either the
sea has washed off, or the sand has buried deep, the un-
fortunates who perished on this spot. The Esquimaux
were very friendly, and freely displayed all their trea-
sures obtained from the boat, or found near it, and these
consisted principally of the oars, used by them as tent-
poles, the boatlettles, the empty preserved meat-cases,
&c., but no papers ; and the natives stated, with every
evidence of sincerity, that none had ever been seen or
found.
" Everything portable was secured by Messrs. Ander-
son and Stewart and brought back, and the articles are
now on their way to Canada ; it would be useless to re-
count them all, but we may mention bar iron, rope with
the Government mark on it, oats branded with the broad
arrow, pieces of buntin (remains of a flag), a letter-
holder, a step of a mast, &c.—all clearly European, and
all Government supplies. Is anything more wanted
" The weather is described as having been ' execrable'
—constant storms, with ice, snow, rain, sleet, bail, thun-
der, and whatever else can be conceived thatis disagreeable.
It is a part of the coast the natives even consider unin-
habitable—merely visiting it for a short time in summer,
when the deer pass that way.
" On the 14th of August, when the expedition com-
menced its retreat from the coast, the ground was co-
vered with fresh fallen snow, and the ice was forming ;
in fact, winter had set in. Few further details of the
last moments of the lost party have been collected. We
may mention one mournful incident reported by an
Esquimaux woman, who saw the last man die. He was
large and strong, she said, and sat on the sandy beach,
his head resting on his hands, and thus the last survivor
of Franklin's expedition, yielded up his brave spirit.
Messrs. Anderson and Stewart retraced their steps to
Great Slave Lake whence the latter continued his jour-
ney onward to Red River settlement, and thence via
the Minnesota Territory to Montreal, where he arrived
on Friday evening last, direct from the Arctic Sea, after
upwards of 5,000 miles travel in open craft and through
uninhabited regions without a halt. A few facts taken
at random may serve to bring home to our appreciation
what this North-West expedition accomplished and went
through. In 13 months, to a day, the Iroquois who
were sent from Lachine to form part of the expedition,
returned thither, thus performing in one year the same
service that Sir G. Back got through in three. For 60
days and nights the party saw no fire, there being no
timber on the Great Fish River or Arctic coast ; and
during those 60 days they travelled incessantly in open
craft in a wretched climate, never had dry clothes or
slept on dry blankets, and never ate cooked victuale
except on rare occasions, when they made a little tea by
means of a lamp. This party of 16 in all travelled in
bark canoes down one of the most turbulent rivers
known even to North-West voyagers ; ventured among
the ice on the Arctic Sea ; and returned to their start-
ing point without meeting a single accident to person or
property—and, withal, performed all that was required
of them ; and, had they gone out four or five years
earlier would no doubt have been instrumental in sav-
ing the lives of a portion of Franklin's party.
We think the foregoing narrative is ample corrobcra-
tion of the wisdom of the recent outcry, to put " the
right men in the right places."
" One word in conclusion as to the Franklin Expedi-
tion. The two vessels, Erebus and Terror, left England
in 1843—were last heard of in 1845. They probably
tried several passages, but were baffled by the ice, and
finally in 1848 were crushed, probably in Victoria Straits.
Many of the crows perished, but one or more boats got
off with the survivors, who took all the stores they could
collect and travelled southward towards the Arctic coast
in the hope of reaching some of the Hudson's Bay Com-
pany ports. The season of 1849 was probably spent on
this dreary journey, and renewed in 1850, when they
reached the coast at the mouth of Fish River, but in so
exhausted a state that they could merely run their boat
on the beach and crawl ashore to die. Thin seems all
that, is certain, and all that we can ever know, of the
fate of the Franklin Expedition."
Her Majesty's Arctic discovery ship Resolute,
which was abandoned, has been towed into the
port of New London by the American whaling-
ship George Henry. When found she had drifted
1,000 miles from the place where she was aban-
doned. Her sails, rigging, and all her appoint-
ments were in good order.
The following correspondence has been made
public at Washington :
" Washington, Dec. 8, 1855.
"Sir,—Her Majesty's Government have lately been
apprised of the safe return of the expedition under your
command to the Arctic regions in search of Sir John
Franklin. They have also been informed of the safe
return of the searching squadron under Capt. Hartetein.
This intelligence has afforded sincere pleasure to her
Majesty's Government, and I have now the honour, in
their name, to offer their cordial congratulations to you,
sir, and to convey to you, and to request you to com-
municate to the officers and crew who, under your com-
mand, so nobly attempted to afford Sir John Franklin
and the officers and crews of her Majesty's ships em-
ployed on the Arctic Expedition, the assurance of the
sincere regard of the British Government and people for
their generous exertions.

and humble servant, " Joste F. CRAMPTON.

"'523,754 purses (1,940,0001.) expenses settled ; and
" 93,543 purses (346,0001.) received by the Treasury
on account of the war expenses advanced.
" The total amount of the war expenses during the
28 months being 1,553,449 purses (5,800,0001.), and the
amount of resources disposed of by the Treasury being
1,223,574 purses (4,573,0001.), the Treasury may there-
fore clsim 329,874 purses (1,227,0001.)

bonds bearing 10 per cent. interest ;
4" 160,000 purses (590,0001.) on the ordinary rave-
nues destined for other branches of the service.

'"To this sum of 1,553,449 purses (5,800,0001.) must
bo added a floating debt of about 200,000 purses
(750,0001.) which the Government has to pay in the pro-
vinces for goods in kind, and about 300,000 purses
(1,235,0001 ) for different purchases on credit for the
War and Marine Departtnen ts.
" To resume, then, in the period of 23 months the
extraordinary expenses of the war amounted to about

bid Russia and the Greek encroachments, was obliged
to have never less than 250,000 men under arms. The

second ; it may be proud to show such a statement to its
allies, justifying their confidence.
" It must render testimony of all the populations of
the empire, which, by an admirable devotion, alleviated
the burdens of war.

" 'ln submitting this statement to the board the
Government has two objects in view—that of making
the board thoroughly acquainted with the actual state of
affairs, and that of asking from the board on the funds
of the loan the
" 169,574 purses (628,0001.) advanced by the Trea-
sury, and indispensable at the present moment, as well
on account of the interest of the public debt to be paid
as owing to the delay occasioned by the state of war in
collecting the revenues.
" ' Let us pass to the budget of the departments of
War, Marine, and Artillery, to provide for the present
budget, one half of which is already gone.
" The War Department, the most considerable one,
has already presented its budget from the 13th of March,
1855, to the 13th of March, 1856. The Ministry of
Marine is preparing its budget. The artillery, not being
able to fix beforehand the amount of nta,Mriel and am-
munition required, will call upon the board for money
according as it may require it.
" 'ln 1845, for an effective force of 122,000 men the
budget was fixed at 518,654 purses (2,357,5181.), owing
to the course of exchange 1,920,0001. On this budget a
sum of 81,331 purses (300,000/.) was destined for gene-
ral expenses, council outlays, the different military
schools, school of engineers, &c. The 7th Corps
d'Arinee, that of B tgdad, paid directly by the Treasury,
is not included in this estimate.

DROWNED mimic TRIEVING.—On Friday an inquest
was held at Manchester on the body of James Pauley,
aged 26. Mrs. Sarah Wilkes said that she resided at
No. 79, Dale-street. Her husband was storekeeper to
the Rochdale Canal Co. About half-past 1 on Wednes-
day morning she was in the kitchen, and heard a noise
on the slates of the house, followed lsy a plunge into the
water of the canal, which runs underneath the window.
She opened the door and found a quantity of lead hang-
ing down in front of the house ; and she drew the infe-
rence that a man bad fallen into the water, but could'
not see anything. On the following day the deceased
was found about the middle of the stream. It is sup-
posed that deceased was engaged in taking the lead off
the roof of the house, missed his footing, fell into the
canal, and was consequently drowned. Verdict, "Found
drowned."—Manchester Examiner.
BLIND ABTLIIM.—We understand that Jenny Lind
(11Irs. Goldschmidt) having beard that the musical pu-
pils of the Blind School were very anxious to hear the
melody of her far-famed ♦oice, and that there were no
means of affording them the opportunity in the crowded
concerts at the Philharmonic-hall, most good naturedly
consented to visit the school and sing an anthem there.
Accordingly, last evening, after the service, she pro-
ceeded to the school and there sang several anthems.
We are unable to give any further information, as the
meeting was strictly private, it being arranged, from
motives of delicacy, which will be easily understood,
that no persons should be present except the blind pu-
pils and the matron. The fact, however, having come
to our knowledge, we think ourselves justified in record-
ing an act which speaks so highly for the disinterested
kindlineon of this gifted lady's beart.—kivrpoo4 Albion!
