The Final Search for Franklin.
Ticknor & Fields, who have become pub.
Ushers, by purchase, of U The Voyage of
the Fox' In the Arctic Sens," (A Natrative
of the Discovery of tho Fate of Sir John
Franklin and his Companions, by Captain
McClintock, R. N., LL. D.,) have favored us
with advance sheets. The work has not yet
appeared in London—principally owing to the
great number of orders for it, which Mr. Mur.
ray, the publisher, has received. Nearly
20,000 copies were ordered in advance, at the
last Trade Sale In London, Mr. Murlie, keeper
of a circulating library, taking 3,000 copies.
In fact, the work has already excited as much
interest and expectation in England as limo's
Arctic Explorations, of which nearly 70,000
copies have been sold, have in this country,
with a steady continuing sale to this hour.
The fate of Franklin and his companions,
so long in doubt, has been finally ascertained.
The uncertainty which caused unusual inter
est—the womanly affection which made Lady
Franklin expend all her private fortune in
long-continued searches after her husband—
the liberality of Mr. Henry Grinnell, of New
York, and the sell-devotion of that mar
tyr of humanity, our own Dr. Kano, have com
bined to make every circumstance relating to
Franklin of great interest every whore--and as
much so, front Kano's own vivid narratives, fu
this country as in England.
Captain McClintock's Narrative of his Arctic
Voyage in The Fox," a cockle-shell of a
steamer, with only one hundred and seventy
tons burthen, written in plain, sailor-like man.
ner, is introduced by a preface from the pen
of Sir Roderick J. Murchison, the eminent
geologist, who was ?resident of the Geo
graphical Society of England in 1846, when
Franklin sailed to discover a Northwest Pas
sage. He says ,
"Lady Franklin has, Indeed, well shown what
a devoted and truatienrted English woman can
accomplish, Tho moment that rellos of the ex•
pedition comnianded by her husband were brought
home (in 1854) by Rae, and that she heard of therm.
count given to him by the Raquimanx of a large party
of Englishmen having been seen struggling with
IlitTioultita en the lee, near the month of the Back
or Great Fish river, she resolved to expend all her
available means (already much exhausted In four
other independent expeditions) in an exploration
of the limited area to which the Pearoh must
thenceforward be neoessarily restricted."
The British Government declined under
taking any thriller search. Lord Palmerston-,
we aro told, " had every desire to carry
out the wishes of the men of science who ap
pealed to him, and that ho was precluded from
acceding to their petition, by nothing but the
strongly expressed opinion of official authori-
ties, that after so many failures the Govern
ment were no longer justified in sending out
more brave men to encounter fresh dan
gers in a cause which was viewed as
hopeless." Lady Franklin then under
took the matter with, wo have heard,
the remnant of her tOrtune. She pur
chased and fitted out the little steamer
" Fox," and placed in command Captain Mc-
Clintock, who had been in the Arctic Regions
with Sir John Roes and others. lie sailed
from Aberdeen on the first of July, 1857. But
the untoward news came, in the summer of
18[8, that, the preceding winter having set In
earlier than usual, the Fos' had been beset"
in the ice off Melville Bay, on the coast of
Greenland, and after a dreay winter, various
narrow escapes, and eight months of Imprison.,
merit, had been carried back by the floating
Ice nearly twelve hundred geographical miles
—even to 63i deg. N. lat. in the Atlantic I"
The crow, however, were in good health ?
and had fuel and food. The officers vrer
--esyste, and lypeful, and tha"
fei ge ?fiat when she reached the opposite
coast, the real difficulties of the enterprise
were to commence. The expedition wont
forth again, and diatovored not only traces of
Franklin and his companions, but records of
their fate, and of the voyage of the " Erebus"
and " Terror." Speaking of this voyage, Sir
R. Murchison says:
" For, those who have not elossly attended to ti;c,
resnits of other Arotio voyages may be informed
that rarely has an expedition in the first year ac
complished more by Its ships than the establish
ing of good winter quarters, from whence the real
researches began by sledge-work In the ensuing
spring Franklin, however, not only reached
Emily Island, but ascended Wellington Channel,
then an unknown sea, to 77 deg. N. lat., a snore
nothorn latitude in this meridian than that attained
long afterwards In ships by Sir Edward Belcher,
and much to the north of the points reached by
Penny end De Haven. Next, though most seantilv
provided with steam power, Franklin navigated
round Cornwallis' Land, which he thus proved to
be an Maud. The loot discovery of a navigable
ohannol throughout, between Cornwallis nud Be•
thurst Islands, though made in the very summer
he left England, has remained even to this day un
known to other navigators'
"Franklin then, In obedionee to his orders,
Steered to the southwest. Passing, as McClintock
believes, down Peel's Strait in 1548. and molting
as far as lat. 70 deg. 05 min. N., and long. DB deg.
23 min. W , where the ships were beset, it is clear
that he, who, with others, had previous'y ascer
tained the existence of a channel along the north
remit of America, with which the sea wherein ho
woo interred had a direst communication, woo the
first real disroperer of the Noreltteese Passage.
This great fast must therefore be inscribed upon
the montrinent of Franklin."
McClintock's Explorations did more than
satisfy the world as to Franklin's fate. It
accumulated some valuable geographical data
Thus, sfoOlintock has proved, that the strait
named by Kenedy In an earlier private expedition
of Lady Franklin after hie companion the brave
Lieutenant Ballot, anti which has hitherto been re
garded only as nn impassable frozen channel, or lg.
noted son channel at all, is a navigable strait, the
south shore of which is thus seen to be the north•
ernmost lend of the oontinent of Amotlea.
"McClintock bee also laid down the hitherto un
known mast lino of Boothia, southward front Bellot
Strait to the magnetic pole, has delineated the
whole of King William's Island, and opened a new
and capacious t hough ice-ohoked channel, suspected
before, but not proved to exist, extending from
\later% Strait in a northwest direction to Melville
or Parry Sound. The latter discovery rewarded
the Individual exertions of Captain Allen Young,
but will very properly, at Lady Franklin's re
quest, bear the name of the leader of the' Fox' ex
pedition. who hail himself assigned to it the name
of the widow of Franklin."
It Is ascertained, by McClintock, that the
boat way of taking a ship from the Atlantic to
the Pacific—which can be done—is by follow-
ing, as nearly as possible, the coast-line of
North America, and that "no passage by a
ship can ever be accomplished In a more
northern direction." So also thought Frank
lin, who sailed in 18.0, to find a link between
his own survey of that coast and the discove
ries of 'Parry, " who had already," Murchison
adds :
to his groat renown, opened the first holfota more
northern course from oast to west, when he wee ar
rested by the It/Toilette,le lee•barrier at Melville
1" And bore It is to be remembered ihat the treat
in whirl' the record and the reline have been found,
is just that to which Lady Franklin herselfspeeielly
directed Keneity, the commander of the 'Prince
Albert,' in her ascend private expedition in 1R52
and had that Intrepid explorer not been induced to
Pt,nrob northward of Ballot Streit but bad felt
biraself able to follow the course indicated by hia
sagacious employer, there one' bo no doubt that
much Caere entisfactory resulta would have been
obtained than those which, after a lapse of seven
yearn, have now been realized by the undaunted
perseverance of Ludy Franklin, and the skill and
courage of McClintoek "
The conclusion, which, front tltoso lest ro-
cords of Franklin's fate, must ho drawn, is
summed up in these words, by Sir H. Mur-
" I invite the reader at onto to peruao the
Journal of McClintock, which will gratify every
lover of truth and ardent research, though It wilt
leave him Impressed with the sod belief that the
end of tho companions of Franklin has been truly
recorded by the native Esquitnaux, who saw these
noble fellows ' fall down and die as they walked
along tho ice.'
" Looking to tho fact, that little or no fresh food
oould have been obtained by the crows of the
Erebus' and ' Terror' during their long imprison
ment of twenty months, in so frightfully emit° a
region as that in which the ships were abandoned.
—so sterile that it is oven deserted by the Fermi
maux,—and alto to the want of suptenanco in
spring at the mouth of the Bark River, all the Arc
tic naval authorities with whom I have converted
coincide with McClintock and his associates in the
belief that none of the missing navigators can be
now living.
Painful as is the realization of this tragic event,
let Us now dwell only on the roffeettoa that, while
the Northwest passage has been solved by the he•
rolo self-aaarifiee of Franklin, Crozier, Filajames,
and their associstes, the searches after them which
are now terminated, have, at a very email 106 S of
life, not only added prodigiouely to geographical
knowledge, but have, in times of peace, been the
be reboot for testing, by the severest trials, the
BIM and endurance of many a brave seaman."

showing the sad condition of affairs eleven
months after the first record. It ran thus:
" April 25, 1813 —II M. ships Terror' and

Franklin died exactly a fortnight after Lieut.
Gore had written his first memorandum. In
the spring of -1818, Captain Crozier, upon
whom the command i had devolved nt King
William's Land, endeavored to nave his star •
lug men, one hundred and live souls in all,
fttan a terrible death by retreating to the Bud
ion Bay territories up the Back or Great
Fish river. They had to boat, mounted upon
a strong sledge, boat and sledge weighing four.
!ten hundred pounds, which hail been drawn
nay miles from Point Victory, and sixty•flve
miles from the position of the " Erebus" and
re Terror." No doubt Crozier's party were
flinging the boat to the ships, were unable to
drag her farther, left two yet weaker ship-
Mates in the boat, and were never able to re
tinal to them. Two skeletons and miteli aban
doned property were found in the boat. Cap
lAin McClintock says 1 . 1 Whether all or any of
'ho remainder of this detached party over

let that they did not revisit the boat, and which

That there was no ono alive In the ship when

We have taken little, in this anticipatory

A TEEAN COLONEL IN SEAR( II OF A PATENT
The Washington correspondent of the New York
says :
Wasuisor" 12th Jannary,lB4o.—At the Presi
dent's Loom loot Tuesday night, a vary odd poen()
occurred—grotoFque enough to bn worth recording.
ft appenra that there la a Texan Colonel—no mat•
tur what his name—running loom round our city,
In search of a patent for a new churning machine,
or some other useful notion; and this Colonel is the
hereof the following veracious history:
Some mg at the Patent Chin eugg.•otod that it
had become very difficult, of late, to secure Ta
lents: and that to obtain ono, it would be requisite
to attract the President's very particular attention.
"You mug tickle the old man," maid 000 of the
patent clerks " Ile le fond of pomp, so you must
dreFq yourself to death, and—attend his first

" But there Rtlt be thentands there," said the
dismayed, though inventive Colonel. " There will
be all the first men or the land; so bow can I hope
to draw any pareonal notice '" The clerk winked
one eye when he heard about all the first men in
the land," and pointed with his retroverted thumb
over 111.3 left shoulder.
Thin was a ohaldaio sign to the far•down Colonel,
who know nothing save his mother tongue, and a
trifle of broken Spanish. " But what am Ito do 1"
ho urged. •' In what mode can I, as you say, ar
rest 151 r. Buchanan's attention? Suppose I carry
my new churn in on my head ?"
The clerk looked grave, and suggested the diffi
culty of passing such an article through the cloak
room, whore gentlemen have to leave behind them
cloaks, sticks, hots, and ail other not needful full

"You don't may'" exclaimed the inventor, glad
to find that his wishes could ho accomplished so
easily. " I'll get them, or die in the attempt ; and

The Frauds of Trade

The article In 'Ph rte,Ll of the 12th list , an the
"Frauds of Trade." was no doubt read with interest
by many of its readers, and It Is greatly to be de
sired that on agitation of the subject should be con.
tinned, either by the papers or the public, for so
great an evil have they become, and to well ugh
established, that It !thigh time some ehange should
be effected, before the mere mention of them shall
become to be conablerest a "matinees! that no re

That these practices are customary, that other

of the grouter necessity that some deenito stand

The whole system of frauds in weights and

Is no Immediate reaching the cause. This is plan
siblo bet not true, for if a demand is created for
honest articles and for those alone, if all fraudu
lent articles are discarded and find no ale, the
time would be very short before a different state
of things would be apparent. Laws respecting
the sale of produce have been passed from time to
time, and perhaps relating to other points in this
connection. The Legislature of New York have
made some regulations respecting the marking of
articles sold under weight or under measure, all of
u bich may be very well as far as they go, but what
is wanting is, that the moral law, which ri_ao above
all the statutes of men, should become the guiding
principle of every citizen, the standard by which
all things should bo tried, the upholder of the up
right, the terror of those that do wrong.
