Sir ID OlhaR Franklin

The information, which we published
in our last issue relative to the Jiscoy.
cry OF the remains Of q portion Of Sir
JonS FRANKLIN's party, has been con.
firmed by further reports. The Indi.
ans who brought the intelligence, had
in their possession number ofnrticl.s
that have been identified as belonging
to tho expedition, and which have been
purchased from them to be sent to
Europe. Sir JOHN FRANKLlN's expedi.
ton left England in lS45, since which
time, until now, nothing had beon
heard Of it. 1t is estimated that .bo
various expeditions sent out upon its
search costs over four millions of
dollars.

Death OF Gov. EBurG.

a telegraphic despatch, dated St.
Louis, October 25, states that the
Hon. L. Bvnr, recently appointed
Governor Of Nebraska, had died in the
Territory on the 18th instant.
1t is but few days since Governor
BURT left his home in Pcndleton
District to assume the official duties to
which he had been appointed by the
President; his death was unexpected
and will be universally regretted
Governor Bunr was comparatively a
young but from the ability he had
already displayed, gave promise of q
brilliant future.

Tho Mails.

The absorbing topic with the Charles.
ton and Columbia papers, at this time,
is the dispute between the Postmaster
General and the President ofthc South
Carolina Railroad, in relation to the
transportation Of tho mails. This is
the day on which the mail is to he
discontinued on the South Carolina
Railroad, if,he terms proposed by the
President of that road are not complied
with. Should this event take place n
serious disarrangement Of the mails
will take place, but We cannot think
that such will be the c.sc. The
Charleston chamber ofc ,mmer. have
sent n delegate to Washncton to
confer with the Postmaster General
upon the subject: the matters in
dispute will doubtless be thoroughly
investigated and Which ever party is in
the wrocg, public opinion will force to
yield.
