ADY -FRANKLIN'S FINAL SEARCH.—
ILA The 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 s'ie sought assistance from the
Admiralty, by asking for the loan of the Arctic ship Reso-
lute, which had been restored in perfect order 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 available for this special service only.
Compliance with these requests having been declined, Lady
Franklin is now devoting her whole fortune to this final
search ; and a large screw yacht (the Fox) lying at Aberdeen,
has been purchased, which the distinguished Arctic officer
who has accepted the command of her (Captain 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 exhaus-
tive search, we hold to the opinion that it is the duty of
Englishmen to examine that limited area whence the traces
of our missing countrymen were derived, which, though
it lies to the south of well-searched tracts, and has been ap-
proached 4by 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
from their insulated Ely abode among the Esquimaux 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 the 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 forth, and
will aid her in carrying out an enterprise involving, as we
believe, the honour of the nation.
We earnestly, therefore, entreat our countrymen to unite
with us in contributing to this noble object.
