LAST LETTER FROM Sir JOHN FRAHkLIS-
The following letter from Sir John Franklin Is
believed to be the last received from his pen 1t
Is dated Whale Fish Island, Bay Of Disco, llth
July 1si5, and 1t Is believed was never published
before in America:
MY dear sister: The appearance
dress, and manners Of the EsquimauI, bespeak
that care Is taken Of them by the government.
Several Of them can read the Bible with ease, and
! am told that when the families all collected
the children are Obliged to attend school daily
looked into one Of the huts arranged with seats
for this purpose. When the minister comes over
from Disco he superintends the school; at other
times the children are taught by u half-caste Es-
quimaux. How delightful II is to know that the
Gospel Is spreading far and wide, and will do 80
till Its blessed truths are disseminated through
the globe. Every ship in these days ought to 20
forth to strange lands bearing among its officers
missionary spirit; and may God grant such a
spirit on board this ship. Ii Is my desire to cul-
tfvate this feeling, and am encouraged to hope
that we have among some who will aid me in
this duty We have divine service twice on each
Sunday, and 1 never witnessed a more attentive
congregation than we have. May the seed sovvn
fall upon good ground, and bring forth fruit abun
dainty to Gods honor and glory. y
Ever your affectionate brother,
(Signed) JOHN FRANKLIN"

A Hictimized Poet

script complains that ever since his c0nnerion
with the press he has been the victim of typo
graphical errors, and brings forward several con-
vincing and ito everybody but the suferer) anus
ing examples.
This first poem, written at the age of fifteen
and addressed to lady. contained the following
floral and erial illusions: -.u... ...... ...-r
''The flower in Its supernal bloom,
The sobbing 1ephyr's kiss, &c,
which the printer rendered:
"The -four In its Internal bloom
The sobbing zePhyr's hiss, &C.,
and in another place the line
"As thy form before me sleeping
was given
"As thy form before me skeeting."
This cured him of the ede. ,erib.. as he then
thought, forever. But, a few months afterwards,
the poetical impulse got the better Of reason, and
rashly vcntured another effusion in the form of 4
melody, or can sonette or ehdnsonette, addressed
to the same fair object through the same literary
channel. The song commenced In the manu-
script touchingly, as follows:
List to the mellow vesper bell,
Softly floating DER the dell,
List, list to the sunset knell.
As the silvdn accents float,
Catch and cherish every note"
&c, &c,
MS DlOOu ran COlu HeNt HlOIHlHSy "ucn ne
went down to the office, and, receiving the paper
from the press, opened 1t on the steps, and Il t
down to read his first literary step toward immor-
tality. 1t commenced thus:
''To oo1, *-~T!
List to the below vesper bull,
Softly floating oar the dell,
List, jist, to the sunset hell
As the sylvan accents float
Cats and cherries every note"
&c, &c.
For one year thereafter he did not touch pen to
paper. He continues:
Time however, will wear away sorrows, as
well as marble, and at the age of seventeen, cir
cumstances, and my newly chosen profession
found me at sea. I was cruising in the Gulf of
in winter, will bring two things out of a man, il
he has them in him, viz bile and poetry. 1t
had that effect upon myself, and the result was,
blue mass and another poetjcal attempt
II was still, as ever have been. constant to nv
first love, and in long rhapsodical poem, ad-
dressed, one moonlight night, to Charity, the fol.
lowing verse occurs:
"All sleep sleep psailo-,-ladie, sleep,
There's one that slumbers not i;
Tho shine the stars-tho' hushed the deep
There's one who sits alone to weep
To weep and be forgot"
ssIn due time received the Herald, with nv
effort in conspicuous space; the above verse read
in print:
'sAll sheep-deep sellar-ladie peep
There's one that slobbers not
Tho shns the stairs, toe huskd the peed,
There sore who sips bone to woop,
Tow eeq bo fosgod."
THAT did the job for me. From that day to
this the muses. and myself have not been on speak
ing terms.
SCan you wonder, then, that ! am a little SEN
sitive on the subject?''
''Since that fatal day have confined myself to
plain prose; but even there / have been the prn-
ter's victim. In an Grafton delivered before the
