LADY FRANKLIN'S FINAL SEARCH.—
Thf• Government having come to the con-
clusion that the fate of the crews of her Majesty's ships
Erebus and Terror requires no further investigation on their
part, Lady Franklin. in accordance with her sense of what is
due to the lost navigators, is now fitting out an expedition at
her own cost,

As a preliminary measure she sought assistance from the
Admiralty by asking fur the loan of the Arctic ship Reso-
lute, which had been restored in perfect older to our Queen
by the American nation, and also for the gift (as granted in
her former private expeditions) of such stores from her Ma-
jesty's dockyards as are 9vailab7e for this special service.only.
Compliance with these requests having been dkclined, Lady
Franklin is now devoting her whole fortune to this final
search and a large screw yacht (the Fox) lying at Aberdeen,
has been pnrch,sed, which the distinguished Arctic officer
who has accepted the command of her (Capt •in McClintock,
R.N.) has pronounced to be perfectly adapted to this em-
ployment. •
Not repeating the arguments we formerly made use of to
induce the Government to undertake a final and, exbaus

tive search, we hald to the opinion that it is the duty of
Englishmen to examine th t limited area whence the traces
of our missing -oun'rymen were derived, which, though
it lies to the south of wed-searchcd tracts, and has been ap-
proache I by vess,ls that have returned without loss, has
never yet been explored.
Supported by the :=civic() of those experienced Arctic sea-
men, in whom she has every reason to confide, Lad' Franklin
makes this last effort to clear away the mystery that shrouds
the fate of her husband and his crews, and poSsibly to rescue
from their insulated abode among the Esquimau some of
his younger companions, who may still be prolonging a dreary
existence. _

On such an occasion we, whose names are hereunto sub-
scribed, feel confident that this our appeal will not remain
unanswered by British people, who will, we doubt not,
tender to the widow of the illustrious navigator that sym-
pathy which his fame and her devotion must call f rth, and
will aid her in carrying out au enterprise involving, as we
believe, the honour of the naLtou.
We earnestly, therefore, entreat our countrymen to unite
with us in contributing to thii.:noble object.
