noon. we had reached long. 1O7 as L.
lat. 65 Il S. with tolerable clear sea
before us, and the land plainly in sight.
| continued pushing through the ice until
we stopped by the fixed barrier about Is
miles from the shore, and with little or no
prospect of ehecting landing.
hauled off for short height, and the
next morning made another attempt at
a different point, but was equally unsuc-
cessful, being able to approach only three
or four miles nearer, as it appeared per-
fectly impenetrable. Near us were sew
cral icebergs, colored and stained with
earth, on one Of which we landed, and
obtained numerous specimens of sand,
stone, quartz, cong lomcrate and sand,
some lOOb. This. am we'll satisfied.
gave us more specimens than could have
been obtained from the land itself, as we
should no doubt have found it covered
with the ice and snow 100 or more feet in
thickness. We obtained supply of fresh
water from a pond in the same island.
Our position was long. lO6 40 +. lat. IS
81 S. and upwards of 70 miles of coast in
sight, trending the same as that we had
previously seen.
Although | had now reached the posi-
ton where our examinations were to ter
inmate by my instructions to the SQUAD
ron, concluded to proceed to the west
ward along the barrier, which continued
to be much discolored by earth, and spe-
cimens of rock, &c. were obtained from
an ice island. A sea leopard was seen on
the ice, but the boats did not succeed in
taking him.
On the 18th of February, in long. 81
30 E. lat. Ga S. land was again seen at
great distance towards the southwest.
We now found ourselves closely embaycd
and unable to proceed in westerly d.
rection; the ice barrier trending round
to the northward and eastward, compelled
US to rctracc our steps. We had entered
deep gulf on its southern side, and it
required four days beating along its nor
thern shore to get out of it. During the
time our position was critical, the weather
changeable, and little room in case of bad
weather. 1t fortunately held up until we
found ourselves again with clear sea to
norhward.
The ice barrier had now trended to
about 81 degrees Of latitude the wind
having set in from the westward with dark
weather and little prospect of seeing the
land or of making much progress to the
westward prior to the lst OF March, there
10y losing time which might be spent to
advantage for our whaling interests at
New Zealand, | determined to proceed to
the north on the evening of the 2Ist.
There was brilliant appearance of the
aurora australis on the 18th of February.
in long. 81 80 f. lat. "a S; also on the
22nd in long. lO3 30 f. lat. So 10 S; on
the 25th in long. III 81 f. lat. 50 S;

The result stated in this report leads
me to the following conclnsions:-
lst. From our discoveries of the land
through DO degrees of longitude, and the
observations made during this interesting
cruise. with the similarity Of formation
and position of the ice during our close
examination of it, consider that there
can scarcely be doubt of the existence

! WITcHCRAFT The learned editor OF the New
York Commercial Advertiser states the follow
ing facts, which are somewhat at variance with
the commonly received notions;
Sin I69l--9z, the belief in witchcraft was as
rife in Fairfield and New Haven counties as in
Salem. There were trials and executions, more
over, and developments in testimony as curious
and circumstantial as were ever elected before
Judge Sewell III Massachusetts,, or before Lord
Chief Justice Haze in England. The ancient
Manuscript records of New Haven are rich IN
historical materials upon this subject; and III the
Secretary's Office at Hartford, few Of the re-
cords of the trials in Fairfield ere yet extantj
although many valuable documents, which we
examined in the archives OF the Wyllis family,
more than twenty years ago, have since been lost
There is one case in the New Haven Records
which is very curious. The body OF poor wo-
man, accused of wtchcrait, tried ana executed,
was ordered to be examined by jury OF wo-
men, to find the Switch mark"-the seal OF the
''devips ownn One of the female Jurors, wo-
man of sense, was an unbeliever IN the whole
matter. On examining the body, this lady de-
clared that F'the poor woman was no more
witch than she was" Fatal declaration! Tier
associate jurors discovered the hellish mark, ana
their unbelieving associate was forthwith arrest
ed a witch herself, and condemned upon what
was held to be her own contession-her guilt
being reasoned out by means of the following
process of chopping logic:-1st. She had declar-
that the woman whose body was examined, was
no more a witch than she was herself I'd. The
other women jurors discovered the witch mark.
Sd. The woman upon whose body the marx was
found was a witch, of course. 4th. So also was
their fellow juror, who had virtually confessed
as mush by the exclamation already cited.
What an affecting proof the imbecility OF the
human mind, after all its boastings, is supplied
by facts like these~

Our RELATIONS WITH GREAT BRITTANY We
have intelligence from Washington, that consi-
derable anxiety existsin we'll informed circles in
that CITY, in relation to the recent correspondence
between Mi. Fox and Mr. Forsyth, and with re-
gard to our diplomatic intercourse seneraIIy with
Great Britain. One rumor is, that when MIR.
Stevenson first addressed Lord Palmerston with
regard to the Caroline affair, that Minister said
in so many words, and in a written and official
note, that the British Government would assume
the responsibility.
| To this, Mr. Stevenson replied, that the nego-
tiatien must then end-intimating that serious
trouble would be the consequence. Whereupon
Lord p. withdreW the gotte, but with an under
standing that no change would he Made in the
decision Of the British Government, WE are
told, moreover, that Mr.Fox was, il not directly
Indirectly authorised to make the avowals EN-.
bodied in his letters to Mr. Forsyth, and that dis
satisfied with the aspect of affairs, he has reques-
.ed his recall
Mr. Stevenson has consented to remain in Lon

opinion, that the diplomatic intercourse between

such critical position, as to require the eyer

matte skill on the part of both Governments, to
bring the long yexed question of the N. E.
Boundary, together with that OF the Coroline
affair, to speedy, proper and bloodless terFpi-
