LADY FRANKLIN'S FINAL SEARCH.-
The Government having come to the con-
&Rion that the fate of the crews of her Majesty's ships
Erebus and Terror requires no further investigation on their
Dart, 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.
Aira preliminary measuresought assistance from the
ralty, by asking for the loan of the Arctic ship Reso-
tilt% which had been restored in perfect order to our Queen
the American nation, and also for the gift (as granted in
her former private expeditions) of such stores from her Ma-
Jedy's dockyards as are available for this special service only.
Compliance with these requests having been &dined, Lady
Franklin is now devoting her whole fortune to this final
larch ; and a large screw yacht (the Fox) lying at Aberdeen,
bas been purchased, which the distinguished Arctic officer
.N
110 has accepted the command of her (Captain McClintock,
.) has pronounced to be perfectly adapted to this era-
11,orment.
Not repeating the arguments we formerly made use of to
induce the Government to undertake a final and exhaus-
tli
ec search, we hold to the, opinion that it is the duty of
Englishmen to examine th it limited area whence the traces
°f our missing countrymen were derived, which, though
it lies to the south of well-searched tracts, and has been ap-
Dreaehed by vessels that have returned without loss, has
never yet been explored.
Supported by the advice of those experienced Arctic sea-
men, in whom she has every reason to confide, Lady Franklin
makes this last effort to clear away the mystery that shrouds
the fate of her husband and his crews, and possibly to rescue
Ipro. their insulated iey abode among the Esquimau some of
4 Younger companions, who may still be prolonging a dreary
tristence.
On such an occasion we, whose names are hereunto sub-
ibed, feel confident that this our appeal will not remain
unanswered by the British people, who will, we doubt not,
rider to the widow of the illustrious navigator that sym-
pathy which his fame and her devotion must call f'rth, and
'il aid her in carrying out an enterprise involving, as we
believe, the honour of the nation.
~,We earnestly, therefore, entreat our countrymen to unite
."Itll us in contributing to this noble object.
