In this | am strengthened by the valuable
opinion OF my friend, Mr. Murdaugh, la.e
the sailing mastered the Advance He has
advocated this very Sound as basis Of land
operations And the recent journey Of
VIM, Kenney, commanding Lady Frank,
Inns last expedition, shows that the fall and
winter should no longer be regarded as lost
months.
The sledges, which constitute so impor-
tant feature of our Expedition, and upon
which not only our success but our safety
will depend, are TO be constructed with ex-
treme care. Each sledge will carry the
blanket, bags and furs Of six men, together
with measured allowance Of Pemmican.--
A light tent Of India rubber cloth Of q new
pattern, will be added but for our nightly
halt the main dependence will be the snow
house of the Esquimaux. 1t is almost in
credible, in the face of obstacles, to what
an extent well organized sledge party can
advance. The relative importance Of every
ounce of weight can be calculated, and the
system of advanced depOts Of provisions or
ganized admirably. r..
Alcohol or tallow is the only fuel, and the
entire cooking apparatus, which is more for
lhawing the snow for tea water than for
heating food--can be carried in a little bag.
Lieut.. McClinlock, of Commander Austen's
expedition, Travelled thus 500 miles the
collective journeys of the expedition equal
cd several thousand, and Baron Wrangell
made, by dogs, 1853 miles in "a days, and
this over fast frozen ocean.
But the greatest sledge journey upon re-
cord is that Of my friend, Mr.. Kennedy, who
accomplished nearly l,4oO miles, most Of
it in mid winter, without returning upon
his track 10 avail himself Of deposited pro-
visions. His only fOOd-and we may here
learn the practical lesson Of tho traveller 10
avoid unnecessary bagage-was Pemmican,
and his only shelter the Snow House.
II is my intention TO cover each sledge
with . gutta-perch boat "A contrivance
which the experience Of tho English has
shown 10 be perfectly portable. Thus
equipped, we follow the tread Of the coast,
seeking the open water, ....r..i
Once there, il such > reward awaits us,
we launch our little boats, and bidding God
speed US, embark upon its waters. Zap

INTERESTING DIscoyERIrs IN PERsIA.-
W. have bad the pleasure o. !istnins 10 a
letter written in Persia loia gentleman in
Boston, gives al account Of some recent
aud ntrr-stlng discoveries in that country.
The writer is scientific gentleman of i1r
highest Standing, an American, and one
whose position in Persia is a pledge Of the
CORRECTNESS Of his details.
The line between Persia and Turkey has
not been defined with that cxaelusss which
peace and security demand and soldiers
have by both governments, been placed upon
the disputed territory to defend the rights
OF Turkey and Persia. And for many
years the soldiers have been in the pracGce
of coming into collision. To avoid this
bloodshed, and settle definitely the bounda-
ry line between the nations, England and
Russia have induced Persia to consent to a
mixed commission, which should embrace
England, Russia and Persia. Col. Williams,
well known to many Americans, and man
OF character and talent, is the English COM
missioner.
In the prosecution Of this work the COM
missioneTs have come upon the remains Of
the ancirnt palace Shusan, mentioncd in the
sacred books Of Esther and Daniel, together
with the tomb of Daniel the Prophet. The
locality answers 10 the received tradition
of its position, and internal evidence, arising
from its correspondence with the descrip-
ton Of the palace recorded in the sacred
history, amount almost 10 demonstration. =
The reader can turn 10 Esther, ch. i. V. 6.
There he will read Of "psvement Of red,
and blue, and white, and black marble in
that palace" That pavement still exists,
and, as described by Col. Williams, CORES
ponds 10 the description given thus in the
sacred history. And in The marble columns,
dilapidaled ruins, the sculpture, and the re-
naming marks OF greatness and glory, that
are scattered around, the commissioners read
the exact truth of the record made by the
sacred penman.
Not far from the palace stands q tomb,
and on Il is sealptared thu figure Of man
bound hand aud foot, with hugo lion In
the act Of sPringing upon him. = No history
could speak more ProPhicSlly the history
Of Daniel in the lions den.
9be commissioners have with thom m
able corps Of engineers and scientific men,
and most interesting discoveries may be
expected. The Persian arroW-bsads are 70
be found upon the palace and the tomb
Glass bottles, elegant % those placed upon
the toilet table Of he ladies Of our day,
have been discotered, which bear out The
statements Of the Bible. 'fhus twenty-five
