It is well known thai on his great
sledee journey i'll search Of the relics
Of Sir john Franklin, Capt. Hall made
distressing discoveries, which he re-
solved never to give to the light rs
long as Lady Fraklin should live. On
his last departure from Greenland in
the Polaris he intrusted all his impor-
tant documents to Mr.. Smith, of
Tessuisak. From them it is now as
certained that Captain Hall made the
sad discovery that Franklin and his
party We're reduced to the dire neces-
eity OF eating each other. The fact of
this discovery would have added still
greater fame 80 Capt. Hall. He kept
the secret from Lady Franklin, bat
now that the tender and heroic ex-
plorer rests under the same dreary
skies with the lost Franklin, this most
unhappy secret has come 70 light.
