DIIt sir: IZT SHIPS.—The 1... As of the Aoluoiralty
have printed, lithographically. a chart et' the track of
the Recta and Griper, on their north-west expedition.:
Some copies of the chart have been distributed among
their friends and men of science, and from the sight
of one of them we have obtained some information re-
specting the dimensions of Lancaster Sound. Mea-
sured by the eye, nithout reference to a scale, it ap-
pears to be about a hundred and fifty milts long, and
from twenty to tnenty tine miles broad. Ott leav-
ing the Sound the ships proceeded sob out a hundred
miles to the southward, and then returning to the
point from which they had diverged, proceeded in a
direct line to the west. On a future occasion we
have reason to expect that we shall be enabled to lay
before the public a complete outline of this interesting
voyage. Notwithstanding the attempts to decry the
value of the discoveries that are accomplished or con-
t.-mi Weil, much coma icial benefit has already re-
milted from the navigation of tlscsa trackless seas.:
The confidence acquired by the experience of
C aptain Roar. has this year induced the whalers
who had been intimidated at the horrors of the higher
legions, to venture, as was suggested, to the month
of Lancaster Sound; and the consornenee has been,
that they have renewed with faller cargoes than were
ever known,—On Snuday last, the papers of this morn-
ing say, that the Commander, Officers, Seamen and
Marine% of his M:.jesty'a ships employed on discovery

fir the many mercies received during their perilous
undertaking, and for their safe return to their native
land. his cannot apply to both the ships. for the
Ileela, according to the Edinburgh papers, was, on
Friday last, at Leith, and was to sail for Deptford that
day or to-marrow.
In York Consistory Court, on Thursday, the N
instant, a suit for divorce was decided, which had
been instituted by Mrs. Milicent Killingley against
her husband, both residing at Nottingham. The cam-
ploolut of the wife was the adultery of the husband. and i
the fact being admitted by Mr. Nicoll, the defendant's ,
advocate, the Court pronounced for the divorce.

Ern sr die of a change in the Administration
iii whether there is any foundation for the rumour
sr set, there is but one op.:lion throughout the coun-
ty spas the propriety of such a change: for a per-
YONNE in the measures which have distinguished
tbrOuneils of our Iltd-rs cannot fail to bring us to
lid hankru;.tcy and ruin, of which we already expe-
dient the forerunners, in our own Commercial dig-
ital,, and the contempt of our neighbours.
bimodal foe members of the English llovernrnent,
ilitanaLsgrace and loss of office are inevitable, to at-
Inept a tom-raiment of the one, and effeetnally pro-
vide against t'ae other. The first Is partially aceotn-
Fibbed by a Title : the latter by a Pension. This
the coarse adapted by WALPOLE, and the elder
FITT. The 6111 t Wll3 created Earl of flaroaD; and
the latter, Earl of Uttavostl. We therefore may cam-
dirt 'market in the as‘urance that the Aristocracy
as never become extinct. while tuaterials for its pre-
servation are to he found in every degraded cabinet.
Our present Rulers are probably so engaged in con-
ediog each other under the shock they sustained on Fri-
aay,and in nialiing arrangements fcr their Pensions,
fret they may not be presided with a list of their in-
Waded titles. It will, therefore, be but charity to as-
set them; especial.; as their complete egnipment may
hasten their resignation. Titles, we know, are often
Olken from some memorable achievement of the person
istended to be ennobled. Thus, Talavera has given
rise toone of the titles of the )(siren-0 ex BitA Lof the

Ise reniceiheresl that 31inisters, in their great wit-
110111, sent an immense quantity of water barrels for
the service of our naval force on the Lake of Ontario,
mi•ler an impression thit the Lake was filled with
salt water; althouch it is known, to almost every
school boy, that the Lake in qn•stion is one of the
largest bodies of fresh water in the world. This oc-
ricioned a wicked laugh among the niposition; but
still it does nut take away from the merit of the
action;' and, notwithstanding the hludring diffi-
dence of Ministers, one of them should be styled !
" Earl of Osrvinto and Baron SALTWATER."
The worthy President of the Board of Control may'
be created Prince of LianoN, in allusion to his em-
tassy to a coentry without a government; and no
one will deny that the Secretary of State fur Foreign
Affairs should be ennobled by some reference to the
" fundamental feature" of his political labors.
ily a similar recurrence to the merits of at other
'itemisers of the government, they can all be reward-
