FROM THE ARCTIC REGIONS.
BY the arrival of H. B. NJ. ship Rattle
snake, thirty days from Port Clarence, we
have very interesting accounts from the Are
tic regions. The Rattlesnake is bound to
England with important dispatches for Her
Maiesty's Government. Captain TrolIop
reports the Arctic discovery ship Enterprise
as having arrived at Port Clarence, August
q, all well. She had effected a passage
through the ice to the other side, but made
no new discoveries Of Sir John Franklin
The Enterprise sailed August % for Point
Barrow, TO recall II. B. MS discovery ship
Plover, which had sailed from Port Clarence

row. The Rattlesnake has been absent from
England nearly two years, and all on board
have enjoyed good health during that time.
The Rattlesnak and Enterprise are the last
Of the discovery vessels of Sir John Frank
lin, and will now proceed TO England, hav-
ing given up all hopes OF making any dscov-
cry Of that Inflated navigator. The Rattle
snake was frozen in one winter in Port Clar-
ence, having gone there as a relief to the
Enterprise, which ship arrived at Port Clar-
ence after an absence of three years. She
entered that sea in July, 1851, and arrived
at Port Barrow, August, 1851; proceeded a.
long the coast and reached Cape Parry,
August Goth. On the same evening land
was discovered to the northward, about 80
miles distant. Upon entering n strait they
found the Investigators boats; proceeding
to the limits Of the straits they were stop
ped by the ice, when they were compelled
to return by the same course, and ondeavor-
ing to get north, they were again hemmed in
by the ice. They returned again and win
tered in Prince Alberts Land, a harbor at
the southern end of the Prince of Wales
Straits. The following spring travelling
parties We're dispatched over the ice, one
Of which reached Melville Island after great
hardships. This is the same point that Sir
Edward Parry reached thirty years previous
from the eastward, thus completing the
Northwest Passage, which had been discov-
cred by the Investigator the year previous.
The Enterprise spent her second winter in
Disease Straits, and her third and last win
ter at Canadian Bay, 300 miles to the east
ward of Point Barrow. The f. had been
frozen in ten months out of every year, but
her crew enjoyed excellent health. having
lost only three men during her ABSENCE
Where the Enterprise first wintered they
met with a harmless, peaceabe set of Esqu-
maux, who had never seen white man be-
fore, and treated them all with kindness and
courtesy, but could give them no inlorma-
ton.
