At the'great sale, in London, a few months ago, the autographs of MILTON and his wife were sold, to Messrs.

Pull Particulars. Cluat:alum Oct. 10. The Ban Francisco Times, of the lfth, says: "In accordance with the anticipations, the expected duel between Meagre. Broderick and Terry took place yesterday morning, in it email valley. ten miles from Merced Lake. The parties went out of town the night previous, and passed the night in gene rate localities. At a quarter past six o'clock Broderick and Terry arrived on the around, attended by their seconds and Physicians. Hon. J. C. MoKibbin and Mr.' Coulter acting for Benatorliroderick. and Menem. Calhoun Bonham and Thom.. Hays for Judge Terry. On descending from their earriages, the parties seemed to be in the beet of spirits, neither appearing anxious or nervous na to the result. About half an hour was occupied in the preliminary arrangements. Ten paces were marked off and the trincipals took their positions. The seconde divested hem of their outside crate, white collars, and ert spies which might present prominent targets ; also of their ',Mellen and the coin in their pockets. • Ono of the seconds then read aloud the code docile, which occupied - a short time. Mr. Coulter then ad dragged the two gentlemen, saying that he wished it to be 'understood that ho should count one, ruin, after the woribire ; after which be would say stop; no shot to be fired after that. - During thin time, the principal, maintained their positions, and liatoned with, composure to these details. Judge Terry stood with Ms head thrown slightly back, looking toward his antagonist. Bach hold his pistol in its hand, pointed to the ground, and each was Armed in Meek clothes, and wore a slouched hat. Berettor Broderick stood erect, but with his head rather down. The positions of the two were somewhat different. Judge Terry maintained shot of a practised duelist, presenting only the edge of his person, and keeping lain left hand and shoulder welt behind him. Broderick, on the contrnry, (though et first maiming a position samewhat similar to that of Judge Terry t, seemed to prefer a careless and less conatrained one, pull gradually presented more of his body to the fire of hie Opponent. Ile held hiapistol rather aWicwrirdly, and, seeming: In feel this .himself, he once or twice ' turned the wrist of his pistol-arm to the right. with his left band, as though endeavoring to comply with some prescribed threatens previously given him. From that time he did not ram hie eyes until the word an given to fire. (fix right foot getting a fraction beyond the line, , Mr. McKibben replaced it. , The bearing of Judge Terry. thous') he assumed n more meatiest and motionless attitude, was not one lot more that of an iron-nerved man than was that of Mr. Broderiek. At a quarter before seven Mr. Coulter pronounced the words "Are you ready .?" Heady responded Mr. Terry; and ready woe uttered by Mr. Broderick. Immediately after, the words err—one, two, worn pro nonnced, in moderately quick time. Arr. Broderick rinsed hie pistol, and had imarcely brought it to an angle of forty-fivp degrees from Its dewnward position, when, owing to the delicacy of the hair. trigger. it was din charge the ball entering the ground four paces in ad: stance of him. Terry fired a feW seconds later, taking deliberate aim. Thorp was a perceptible interval in the two reports. At that instant Broderick won observed to Map his loft hand to his right breast, when it was seen •that he wan wounded. lie reeled slowly to the left. and before hie amonas could read, him ho fell to the ground, his yield lex doubling under him, and his hand still grasping his weapon.

The London newspapers, just received by the Canada, contain details, to the extent of several columns, of tho discovery of the time and place of Sir Jonx FRANKLIN'S death. What with the political as well as the increas ing advertising pressure upon our columns, it is impossible for us to give these so fully as our less favored contemporaries may do. But, from the London Critic of the 24th ult., we give the following summary, containing the real points of these reports—the essence, as it were, of a very interesting but greatly spun out narrative: It is now established beyond possibility argues tion that Sir John Franklin died on the 11th of June, 1817; that the ships wore abandoned ou April 22d, 1848, and were left in the ice by one hundred and five—the survivors of the crows—who attempted, under the command of Captain Crozier, to reach the Great Fieh River. During the re searches, Captain McClintock mot with an intelli gent old Esquimaux woman. who informed him that In the fall of 1847 one of the ships was forced ashore, and that ' many of the white men dropped by the way, as they wont toward the Great River.' Of this fact the discovery party came upon evidence too cogent to admit of doubt; for, on the 24th of May, when about ten miles eastward of Caps Her schel!, they mime upon a bleached skeleton, aronnd which lay fragments of European clothing, and beneath the snow was a small pocket-book, con taining fragments of letters decayed, but yet to be deciphered. Judging from the remains of his dress. this unfortunate young man was a steward or officers servant, and his position exactly verified the Esqui maux'a assertion that ho ' dropped as he walked along.' All this, however, Is as nothing to the disco veries of Lieutenant Hobson, on the oth of May last. This officer happened to pitch his tent beside a large cairn upon Point Vietory, when, looking about among the loose stones which had fallen from the top of the cairn, ho found n small tin case, which, upon examination, was discovered to contain the record of the horrible sufferings sus tained by the lost crow. The following is said to be a brief abstract of this tale of hardship and woe: 'This cairn was built by the Franklin expe dition upon the assumed site of James Roes's pil lar, which had not been found. The Erebus and Terror spent their first winter at Beechy Island, after having aseendedlVellington Channel to lati tude 77 degrees north, and returned by the west side of Cornwallis Island. On the 12th of Septem ber, 1846, they were beset in latitude 70.05 north, and longitude 98.23 west. Sir John Franklin died on tho 11th June, 1847. On the 22d April, 1848, tho ships were abandoned, five lenguos to the north northwest of Port Victory, and the survivors, a hun dred and five in number, landed hero under the command of Captain Crozier.' "This paper was dated 25th April, 1818, and upon the following day they intended to start for the Great Fish River. The total loss by deaths in the expedition, up to this date, was nino officers and fifteen men. A vast quantity of clothing and stores of all sorts lay strewed about, as it hero every article was thrown away which could possi bly be dispensed with—pickaxes, shovols, boats, cooking utensils, iron work, rope, blocks, canvas, a dip circle, a sextant engraved 'Frederick Morn by, R. N.,' a email medicine chest, oars, .tc.. A few miles southward, across Back Bay, a second record was found, having been deposited by Lieut. Gore and M. des Vanix, in May, 1847. It afforded no additional information. When in lat. 89 deg. 09 N., and long. 99 dog. 27 W., Capt. McClintock came to a large boat, discovered by Lieut. Hob son a few days previously. It appears that this boat had been intended for the ascent of the Fish River, but was abandoned, apparently, upon a re turn journey to the ships, the sledge upon which she wee mounted being pointed in that direction. She measured twenty-eight feet in length by seven and a half feet wide, was moat carefully fitted, and made u light as possible; but the sledge was of solid oak, and almost as heavy as the bent. A large quantity of clothing was found within her, also two human skeletons. Ono of these lay in the after part of the beat, under a pile of clothing; the other, which was much nioro disturbed, proba bly by animals, was found In the bow. Five pocket watches, a quantity of silver spoons and forks, and April 26,1669 .rohnlthon a few religious books, wore also found, but no journals, pocket-books, or even names upon any article of clothing. Two doublo•barrelled guns stood upright against the boat's side, precisely ns they had been placed eleven years before. , Ono barrel in each was loaded and cooked; there was ammunition in abundance, oleo nibs. or 90lbs. of chocolate, some tea and tobacco. Fool was not wanting; a drift tree lay within one hunfted yards of the boat . . " As there can be no doubt that this statement is Strictly and literally true, the dark mystery of Sir John Franklin's fate is finally and conclusively solved. There is no longer room foe doubt. Those fond hopes which have been perseveringly adhered io by a few are now without the' slightest fon.4 a .. flan, and the names of Franklin and his orew must be finally enrolled among that noble army of martyrs who have died in the 011U90 of scientific adven• tura."

Tho assaults upon his private and publics character— although rarely referred to by himself—were se per sistent on the part of the organs of the Administra tion, here, in New York, and in California, that they no doubt greatly affected him. He had not a living relative; to use his own language In the Senate, "there remained no tie of blood to bind me (him) to any being in existence."

Ido not know whether ho died possessed of any fortune, but it is certain that he owned considerable valuable property in and about San Francisco. It was my province to see him almost every day during the sessions of the last Congress.

As a Senator ho was distinguished for the boldness with which lie resisted the many schemes of speculation constant ly brought before that body by those who infest the "Golden State," and I think I do not go too far when I say that it was owing to his vigilance and resolution in exposing the various operations of these men that millions were saved to the public treasury. Of course, these characteristics, added to his indomitable opposition to the Territorial policy of tho Administration, arrayed against bins the most violent combinations. The jobbers and speculators looked upon him with horror and dread. They denounced him everywhere, and added glad ly their own voices to the clamor of the adherents of Mr. Buchanan. Although one of the most generoun men that over lived—ready to go to any extent to servo those ho loved—ho bad no extravagant habits, and was im bued with the most sensitive regard for economy in the administration of the affairs; of the General Government. Thus bad been bin course while a member of the Legislature of Californis. It is a foot in Broderick's history that he attached to his character, and himself, not only many of the most intellectual men in the country, but tens of thou sands of the sons of toll. There was a warmth in the friendship of those who adhered to his fortunes, not often witnessed in the experience of public num. In this connection let me ask you to publish the following beautiful extract from his spocch against the Administration, In the iSenate, on the 22d of March, 1958. Ile woe replying to the bitter taunt of Senator Hammond, of South Carolina, In regard to " the white slaves and mud sills" of ,so THE PRESS.-PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER ' 11, 1859. °MO, in filo freo States. It is nut often that we hoar such expressive language in our Congressional , debates: Mr. Broderick said: "I, sir, am glad that the Senator hay spoken thus. It may hare the effect of arousing 1n the workingmen that spirit which has been' lying dor mant for centuries. It may also hare the effect oferou• sing the two hundred thousand men, with pure skins. in South Carolina, who are now degraded and despised by thirty thousand aristdoratic slaveholdeni. It may teach' them to demand what in the power— Li nk'd with encomia, mounted and kept with skill, That moulds anther's woakness to ita will t 'Mettle with their hands. but. still to them unknown, Makes even their mightiest deeds appearing, own.' " I suppose. sir, the Senator from South Carolina did not intend to be personal in his remarks to any of his peens noon thin floor. If I had thought so 1 would have noticed them lathe time. I atn, sir, with one exception, the youngest In years of the Senators upon this floor. It Is rot long since I nerved an apprenticeship of Pico years at one of the most laborious mechanical trades pur sued by man—a trade that, from its nature, devotee its follower to thought, but debars him from conversa tion. I would not have alluded to this if it were not for the remarks of the Senator from South Carolina; and the thousands who know that I am the son of an arti non, and have been a mechanic, would fool disappointed in me if I did not reply to hint. I am not proud of thie. am sorry it is true. I would that I could have enjoyed the pleasuros of life in my boyhood days ; but they were denied to me. I say this with palm I have not the ad miration for the mon of the class from whence I sprang that might be expected; they submit too tamely to oppronsion, and aro prone to neglect their rights and duties an citizens. But, sir. the clues of society to whonso toil I was born, under our form of government, will con trol the destinies of this nation. If I were inclined to forget my connection with them, or to deny that [sprang from them, this chamber would not be the place in which 1 could do either. While I hold a sent here I have but to look at the beautiful enpi tale adorning the pilnaters that support this roof to be reminded of my father's talent, and to sari his handiwork. " I lett the scones of my youth and manhood for the ' Frir West,' because I was tired of the struggles and jealousies of manor my ohms, who could not enderstand why ono of their fellows should seek to elevate his con dition above the common level. I made my new/idiotic among strangers, where labor is honored. I had loft without regret; there remained no tie of blood to bind me to any being In existence. If I fell in the struggle for reputation and fortune, there was no relative on earth to mourn my fall. Tho people of California ele vated me to the highest office within their gift. My election wan not the result of an necidont. For years I had to struggle, often seeing the goal of ambition within my reach ; it was again and again taken from me by the aid of mon of my own elan. I had not only them contend with, but almost the entire partisan press my State was subsidized by Government money and patronage to oppose my election. I sincerely hope, sir, the time will come when such speeches Re that from the Senator from South Carolina will be eprisideredaleisoli to tho laborer( of the nation," Such iR the wan who has been eaerilleed to pro pitiate the vongcanoo of the Adminiirratihrt - of James Buchanan. I forbear further comment upon this fruitful theme. If the deed of blood does not awaken the Democratic muses to an appreciation of the despotism concentrated here, and extending its influence into the States and Territories of this Republic, then they are dead alike to shape and to their own duty, OCCASIONAL.

Those interests have been fostered to such a degree that our coal minee are button well able to supply a large excess beyond the demands or wants of the ennsuniers,and they may safely now be left to take care of themselves.
