The SEARCH FOR SIR JOHN FRANKLIN the
return OF the Amphitrite to her station in the Pa
CHIC, from Behring Strait dispatches and letters
have been received from the Plover depot sbip An
exchange of officers has also taken place, and
Commander Mcguire has entered upon the com
mand, Uice Captain Moore, who took the Ployer
out.
In anticipation of the Admiralty dispatches, we
will now merely state that the private letters con
arm IN the very strongest language the growing
conviction tha.it has become an absolute necessity
to despatch steam vessels to that region with which
to penetrate northward into the open water seen
BY Captain Kellett in the Herald, upon both occa-
sions of his visiting the Straits. The Plover will
winter at Point Barrow, position far to the north
OF her original station but she is and always has
BEEN totally unfit for encountering ice or indeed
Tor any other purpose than that of depot.
II now beh loves the country to see that, for the
mere passive instrument of crazy store-shp,
there be substituted such active agency ma steam
alone can afford, SO as to carry that aid to our long
missing countrymen, without which it ia evident
they will never be restored to their homes. SINH
lar assistance is scarcely less necessary in behalf
of the vessels under the command of Ca ptains
Collinson and Mcclure, who are without steam
power, and equally require to be met or followed,
as the case may be. 1t is a question, therefore,
which cannot be permitted to slumber, and which
claims the immediate attention of Parliament and
the Admiralty, since the selection and equipment
OF the cleaners ought not to be delayed, if we
would secure their passage to Behripg Strait in
time Tor the open season of next year.

that ne had not felt SO well for many weeks. He
had scarcely taken his seat in the parlor, where
the corpse of bis first great grand child lay ready
for interment, when he fell upon the floor, without
speech or motion, and died before the family ply,
scian could arrive to see him. He leaves widow,

She fingered long, wasting slowly and sinking
gradually, before the insdous approaches of the

hers. She died on earth because new voice was
