with the remains of white men. Close
by were two graves. This tent was a
little way inland from The head of Terror
Bay. In the spring of 1861, when the
snow was nearly all gone, an Esquimaux
party, conducted by a native well known
throughout the Nothern regions, found
two boats, with many skeletons in and
about them. One of these boats had been
previously found by M'Clintock; the
other was found lying from ~one-quarter
to one-half mile distant, and must have
been completely entombed in snow at the
time M'Clintock's party were there, or
they most assuredIy would have seen it.
In aud about this boat, besides the many
skeleton alluded to, were found many
relics, most of them similar in character
to those M'Clintock has enumerated as
having been found in the boat he discoy-
cred. The native who conducted this
native party in its search over King Will

In-nook-poo-zhe,jook, and he is a native
of Neitchille, a very great traveller, and
very intelligent. He is, in fact, a walk
ing history of the fate of Sir John Frank

after stopping a few days among his peo-

The same year that the Erebus and Ter

mated the great Northwest Passage,
having five men aboard. The evidence
of the exact number is circumstantial.
Everything about this Northwest Pas
sage ship Of Sir John Fraklin expedition
was in complete order; four boats were
hanging high up at the ships sides, and
one was on the quarterback; the vessel
was in it's winter housing of sail or tent
cloth. This vessel was found by the Ook-

must have been a dog Of the greyhound
species belonging to one or the other of
the two ships. I only know this through

there was a dog on board either of the

MORE REMAINS OF THE
KILN EXPEDITION

VINO returned 10 New BedfOrd (Unlted
States) on the 26th September, after a
five years search for the remains Of Sir
John FrankIin's companions, has written
an interesting letter to Mr.. Henry Grin
nell, giving the details of his cruise, to-
gether with unmistakable evidences of
the fate of Sir John and his party. The
captain says -
"The result ofmy sIedge journey toKing
Williams Land may be summed up thus
None of Sir John Franklin's companions
ever reached or died on Montreal Island.
1t was late in July, 1848, that Crozier
and his party, of about forty or forty-fve,
passed down the west coast Of King
Williams Land in the vicinity of Cape
HerscheII. The party was dragging two
sledgeS on the sea ice, which was nearly
in its last stage of diSSolution-one a
large sledge laden with an awning-cover-
ed boat, and the other a small one, laden
with provisions aud camp material. Just
before Crozier and party arrived at Cape
Herschell, they were met by four families
of natives, and both parties went into
camp near each other. Two Esquimaux
men, who were Of the native party, gave
me much sad, but deeply interesting, in
formation. Some of it stirred my heart
with sadness, intermlngled with rage,
for it was a confession that they, with
their companions, did secretly and hastily
abandon Crozier and his party to suffer
and die for need offreSh provisions, when,
in truth, it was 10 the power ofthe natives
to save every man alive. The next. trace
of Crozier and his party is to be found in
the skeleton which M'CIintock discovered
q little below, to the southwark and east
ward of Cape HerschelI. This was new
er found 10y the natives. The next trace
is a camping place on the sea-shore of
King Williams Land, about three miles
eastward of Pfrfer River, where two
men died, and received Christian burial.
At this place fish-bones were found by
the natives, which showed them that
Crozier and his party had caught while
there a species of fish excellent for food,
with which the sea there abounds. The
next trace of this party occurs some five
or six miles eastward, on a long, low
point of King Williams Land, where one
man died, and was buried. Then about
SIS. E., two and a half miles further, the
next trace occurs, on Todd's Islet, where
the remains of five men lie. The next
certain trace of this party is on the west
side ofthe inlet west ofPoint Richardson,
on some low land that is an island or a
part of the main land, as the tide may
be. Here the awning-covered boat, and
the remains Of about thirty or thirty-fve
of Crozier's party were found by the ma
tive Pooyet-ta, Of whom Sir John Ross
has given a description in the account of
his voyage in the. Victory, 1829-34. In

Office ONE time, lie prefaced Tin a finance
committee of the %Parliament) his policy
of force with an expression which excited
a great sensation at the time. Arma-
ment, said he, was too heavy for the small
body of Prussia, and he then opened the
prospect Of a policy which, by means of
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of Prussia, would
diminish its burthens by spreading them
over a greater surface. That sounded
attractively enough, but it has not been
realized. The small body has since be-
come very thick. Prussia has swallowed
fat and productive Schleswig HoIstein,
sleek Hanover, rich Nassau, and Electoral
Hesse, but the burthens it has to carry
are not only not lighter but much heavier,
and Prussia has now, what she never
knew before her ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, a deficit
increasing every year. The present speech
from the Throne hereby makes a confess
sion which puts the condition of Great
Prussia and the North German Confedera-
ton in anything but a hopeful light.
King William ascribes it to unavoidable
circumstances, that the revenue, instead
of increasing, is diminishing and, OH the
other hand, that the expenditure voted in
the budget has been exceeded, and adds
that "without injury TO important inter
ests of the country a farther decrease OF
the expenditure is not feasible" They
confess, therefore, that they spend more
than they are justified in doing, and talk
at the same time of the impossibility of
farther economy-a logic which, as is
we'll known, the North German Confeder-
alton could not see. Will now the Prus-
sian Parliament grant what the North
German Parliament rejected as too eX-
orbitant2 This Prussian Parliament, 1t is
true, is quite u~naccountable as soon as
Count Bismarck holds up to it the black
and white rag of Prussia's mission to
swallow all Germany, but still it is pos
sibIe that the Parliament may this time
com to itself and spare the country the
new tax demanded.
The Prussian speech from the throne
declares the ''restoration and preservation
of order in the finances-an unconditional
necessity for the prosperous working of
all arrangements of the State" That is
certainly an in~disputable fact; but the
question then arise, Who is the real dis
turber of the fnances-the State, which
keeps up a military force %exhausting all
the resources Of the country, or the tax
payer, who, Notwithstanding peace and
good harvests, is not in a position to pay
the existing taxes7 Instead of concluding
from this fact that before everything re-
auctions must be made in the expendi-
ture, they demand higher taxes from the
country and greater sacrifices than it has
already made. The revenue of the State
is decreasing because the taxpayers are
