CAPT. Ross HOUSE AT THE NORTH POLE

CAPT. Ross HOUSE AT THE NORTH POLE.
The Britannia, an English journal, gives The
following interesting extract from the journal of
Mr.. Nicholson, surgeon in the ship Traveller,
which had recently returned to Hull, (Eng) from
Davis's Straits, having touched at Fury Beach -
spot interesting to all polar explorers:
On the 10th Of August we gained the mouth
of Prince Regents inlet and found it to be com.
pletely obscured by ice. We remained for a
little time, during which we had heavy gale at
NNE, which separated the ice from the land, and
enabled us to up the inlet as far as FuryPoint
We saw an imense quantity Of fish but unforu.
could not play our boats. This continued until
the 18th, on the evening of which Mr. Lee, jr
and myself accompanied by the boats crew, Ian.
ded at Fury Beach and there saw the house which
had been constructed by Capt Ross and the crew
of the Victory; likewise the stores and provs-
ions of the Fury The house was somewhat
damaged, but the provisions although exposed to
the inclemency ofthe weather for lS years, were
all in the highest state of preservation. They con-
sisted of -four, sugar, pickles, carrots, salmon,
SOUP &c; the three last mentioned articles are
in canisters. and Theoretically sealed There are
various stores for ships USE viz anchors cables,
ropes, and iron work in great variety
Nothing was allowed to be removed except
SOME trihng article as relic, from Fury Beach,
and it is TO be hoped hat other master will act
with the same consideration as Mr. Lee, in no,
allowing any thing to be removed. They ought
rather ado TO the stores. 1t was by their means
that the captain and his crew survived two years
The house contains apartments, one of which
had evidently been allotted 10 Sir John Ross an.
other to his officers, and the remaining part to
the ships company. 1t is in form of house l6
by 10, covered with the Fury's sails 1t contains
two large stoves, and beds arranged on each side
o the house, with stools, tables, &c There are
provisions and fuel sufficient to serve ships
