INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ARCTIC EXPEDITION
The letter of instructions from the Secretary of the
Navy to Lieut.. De Haven, Commander of the
Grnnel Archie Expedition, is published. We
make some extracts from it. He says:
The chief object of this expedition is TO search
for, and if found, afford reliefto Sir John Franklin,
Of the Royal Navy, and his companions.
You will therefore use all diligence and make
every exertion to this end paying attention as YOU
go to subjects of scientific inquiry, only so far as tie
same may not interfere with the main object Of the
expedition.
Having passed Barrow Strait, you will turn
your attention northward to Wellington Channel
ana westward to Cape Walker, and be governed by
circumstances es to the course you will then take
Accordingly, you will exercise yor own dis.
creton after seeing the condition of the ice sea and
weather, whether the two yes els shall here sepa.
rate one for Cape Walker and the other for Wei.
llngton Strait or whether they shall both proceed
together for the one place or the other
Should you find it impossible, on account of the
ice, to get through Barrow Strait, you will then
turn your attention to Joness Sound and Smiths
Sound. Finding these closed or impraeticabIe, and
falling OF all traces of the missing exT edition. the
season will probably then be too far advanced fol
York."
The point ofmaximum cold is said to be in the
vicinity of Parry Islands; and, after alluding to
by Lieut.. Maury, and to the superstition entertained
by scientific men, that beyound the icy barrier OF
the Arctic region there is PoIina," or sea free
from ice, he adds:
The supposed open sea and warmer region N
the north and west of the Parry Islands are unex.
plored. Should you succeed in finding anv or an.
ing there, either AFTER having cleared WeIIington
Straits or after having cleared Parry Islands bv
norlhwardy course from Cara Walker, ente: as far
as id your judgement it may be prudent to enter
and search every headland, promonotofy and con,
spicuous points, for signs and records of the missing
party. Take particular care TO avail yourself Of
and signs to tell of your welfare, progress and in
tentions.'
He commend him not to advance to such posi-
ton as will permit his vessel to be caught by ice
during the ensuing winter, and specially enjoins
him not 10 sp, nd more than one winter in the Arc
tic regions, if he can possibly help it,

ROCHESTER, May 81, 1850.
There was tremendous break in the canal about
O'Clock last evening.
The great embankment on the canal just west OF
Bushneifs basin, twelve miles east of this city,
gave way for about a quarter of mile, carrying
out the earth to the depth of sixty feet below the
bottom Of the canal.
It's estimated that it will require from four to six
weeks to repair the damage done. thousand
men were called Tor by the superintendent this

The Faculties, for intellectual abilities

viii compare favorably with the most distin
guished in our country. The medical faculty
constitutes an anomaly in this or any otheI
country-all Of them are able lecturers and the
best Of teachers.
Those who will contemplate our geographi.
cal position, and the extent of our population
can have no doubt as to the eligibility Of ouI
situation for an enterprise Of the kind. A,
10 health, including all seasons Of the year, we
deny that any other city has more.
A common error exists in the minds Of many
students relative to the place of studying med.
ieine; those who intend pIaeticing among the
diseases of the West and South should GER
tainly educate themselves at school whose
Faculty are practically acquainted with those
diseases.
That the public may be satisfied of the per-
manency Of this school. we feel it our duty TO
state, that the Trustees and Faculty form a
UNIT in action, which augurs well for its future
success; and that the peculiar internal organi.
zation which connects them, cannot be Inter-
rupted. E. w. NJ. KING,
