We Howgate Rxpedition.

The Howgate Expedition.
Captain Howgate and his frierds
are beginning TO get uneasy on ao-
count Of the delay of Congress in
providing means to forward his
projected expedition. They have
no doubt but that when the bill
making the appropriation is brought
up in the House, it viii pass with
ont much opposition, but are afraid
that the delay will imperil the en-
terprise. Reports from Labrador
and other high attitudes confirm the
opinions entertained here, that no
season 50 favorable to northern ex-
plorations has occurred for thirty
years, as, owing to the mild winter
just passed, comparatively little ice
was formed, and this is now suppos-
ed to be breaking up and drifting
south, as the European steamers re-
port having encountered ice-bergs
much earlier this season than usual.
IN view Of this, it is hoped that if
the expedition can get away from
our shores by July 18th no difficult
" will be experienced in going di-
rectl Y north as far as Lady Franklin
Bay, about So, nearly as far as the
highest point reached by aEy form
er expedition. Should these hopes
be realized, and a base os supplies
be established in that vicinity dur
ing the coming summer, the friends
Of the expedition say that its sue
cess would be certain. To establish
this base of supplies, however. it is
necessary that action be taken as
soon as possible, as all the time be
tween this and the last day when
such an expedition should start can
be proftablv used in making proper
preparations, without which success
IS very doubtful.-[ Scientific Ameri-
can.
