The New York Herald has some interest- ing information concerning the Expedition ‘ot Captain Lall which started to find traces of Sir John Franklin and his party, Some important discoveries have been made, and ‘our readers will peruse'the extracts given below with interest. The information is furnished by Dr. Goold, of Dublin, who hhas been during tlie‘past two years in the Polar regions :— “Dr. Goold artived at New London, Conn,,a few days since, on board a whaling ship, from Cumberland Inlet, and states that in August, 1867, he spent some time with Mr. fiat who was then at Repulse Bay, Mr, Mall has traced the fate directly of two of the lust survivors ot Sir John Franklin's party, and has obtained value- able information regarding the relics and some records reported by the natives to have been leit by the lost expedition in King William’s wand, Captain Malllearned from some of the Esquimaux, in 1866, 4hat abeut two years prior to that time, Captain Crozier and one of the Kranklin ‘crew dicd in the neighborhood of South- wunpton Island, while endeavoring to make their way to that place, in the beliet that they would be there able to mect a whaler ‘to conyey them back to England, or, in fact anywhere, to escape from their Artic prison, Captain Mall ts confident of the identity ol Captain Crozier with one of the men as described to haye perishea, as the natives uot only gave Captain Crozicr’s name, but were in possession of certain articles that belonged to him und his companion. Mr. Hall obtained from these Esquimaux Capt. Crozier’s watch, a gold chronometer, made by Arnold and Dent of London, besides some small articles of silver and trinkets belonging to their outlit, ‘These relics Mr, Hall now holds, and they haye been seen and handled by Dr. Goold. Captatn Crozier’s companion, who died with him, is believed to have been astewart of either the Frebus or Zervor, as the natives say he Was a server of food, but could not recol- lect his name. ‘The natives also states that they have among them, near Southampton Island, a piece of gold bullion which belonged to apt. Crozier, and is believrd to have formed part of one ot his equatettes. ‘They also stated that a number ot others had wtarted with Captain Crozier trom a place Very far north to reach Southampton Inlet, ‘but had perished one by one on the way. They had been passed trom one band of Enewits to the other, and when Captain Crozier had passed through two wibes the natives say all further traces were lost; but Capt. Mall himself traced the remaind- er there. Capt. ILall also says: ‘Lhe opin- fon most entertained is, that the natives killed them.” ‘They say themselyes there was no diflicuity in Capt Crozier getting through, bocause he was accounted among the natives a first-rate hunter for that ‘country, and could at all times keep him: self in food.

London, Oct. 5th. A rumor is current that the success of the revolution in Spain has had the effect to in- duce Fr. nce to make some important conces- sions to Italy.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1868, No notice can be taken of annonymous com> munications. We must know the names any addresses of our correspondents as a guarantd of their good taith. We cannot undertake to return communications that are not used THE UNITED STATES, Tue approaching Presidential Election in the United States is engaging the ac- tive attention of that energetic people, in every State of the Union. Vermont and Maine have already foreshadowed their decision in their recent State elections of Governors and State legislators, in each of which the Republicans have had large majorities. ‘The general opinion is that Grant and Colfax will be returned, but a large majority in their favor is not antici- pated by their more judicious friends, Doubtless the present contest, to a great extent,is one between those who haye won and those who have lost in the late civil war. ‘he Republicans are desirous of completing the work of reconstruction, to which they haye placed their hands, claiming that none understand how to set the national house in order, or know how to cement the disorganized materials so effectually. ‘The Democrats, on the other hand, are equally zealous in their opposition, but in effecting their object are likely to lose more than they will gain by some of their auxillaries. As in France a few years ago, it was found that the prestige of a name carried with it a great influence, so is it with the Republi- cans of the United States, whe find in the name of Grant good material for a popular canvas, while the excellent pri- vate and public character of Mr. Colfax is favorable also to the same issue. In the South the expectations of the colored people have not been realized. They say that the Republicans made pro- mises to them which have not been ful- filled, and doubtless at the forthcoming election many of them, from an intuitive sense, that to a great extent for a long time to come they will be dependent upon | their old masters, and no doult in some instances, out of attachment, will be in- duced to vote against the Republican ‘Vicket, and in favor of the planters, who will suppert the Democratic rather the Radical ‘Vicket. That this will be the case seems further probable from the fuct | that already Democratic clubs, composed entirely of negroes, are springing up in various places in the South, with an ap- parently settled determination to support that party. But while this is what is occurring in several of the late disaffected | States, we notice that in Georgia, where |the rights of the negro were supposed to | be better understood than in some other | States, advantage has been taken of ‘an old clause in the constitution of that State, by means of which the colored members have been expelled from their seats in the House of Representatives in that State. ‘These men are represented as being possessed of respectable attain- ments, and before withdrawing, united in preparing and presenting, a moderate and well written protest, in which they remind the House how the colored peo- ple stood by the whites in the South, even unto death, during the war; deny the legality of the decision arrived at; express their willingness to retire rather than resort to acts which might, in a time of political excitement, produce civil strife, and express a hope that an ultimate appeal to Congress andthe jus- tice of the American people, will in due time rectify the wrong. It is worthy of notice that in this protest they were joined by twelve of the white Republican members. This action of the Georgia Legislature, is denounced by respecteble journals in several parts of the United States, and repudiated by one of the colored members before he retired, named ‘Turner, in an able and effective speech, who by such action, has, asa matter of course, been driven into opposition. ‘This man was himsclf once a slave, but by dint of per- severance and a diligent study of his books while others slept, has qualified himself to read fluently in Latin, Greek, and Hebrew, und gave good attention also to other departments of study. In ‘his address he is reported to have said, that when he was a slave he had been | tulken out of doors and flogged for reading land praying by the bed-side of a sick lfriend, In withering terms he reminded the whites of their manifold acts of | cruelty and oppression to his race, prov- ling his assertion from facty in his own ualified to dis- 8, and boldly ite members to who could read charge that he was not charge Legislative day the proof, the test to | ee wri MERSIDE led back the| the Scriptures correctly in the greatest number of languages. His proposition, however, met with no response, The effect of this temporary triumph of the whites in Georgia will be to increase the number of yotes for Grant and Colfax among the colored people in the South. What is loudly complained of in most of the States lately in Rebellion, is that in atime of peace, and without any ne- cessity for it, they have been and are yet governed by martial law, and enumerate many instances of despotism and oppres- sion whieh have been perpetrated upon them. ‘The Democrats, though, have a dangerous ally, which wiil stifle many appeals that would otherwise meet with a triendly response, it. the Ku Klux Klan, whose acts of violence have only in mod- ern times, been exceeded by the Sepoys of India, ‘The negroes in Mississippi and Alabama may organize Democratic Clubs, but itis not likely that they will in Georgia, Florida, or Svuth Carolina. ‘The probability is, that the proceedings against the negroes in Georgia will find a response in the South, that will more than counteract any influence which the Ku Klux Klan organization can bring to bear against the white Unionists on whom in Kentucky they have reeked their veng- ence in threats and acts which are dis- grateful, crucl, and diabolically wicked. The feeling in the South against the Republican clement in the north is doubt- less strong and bitter, and much remains to be effected before a patriotic love for the Unron will be again in the ascendant in cach State of the American Republic. This, however, is no more than what it is natural to look for after the ordeal through which the Republic has passed. ‘The Republicans, no doubt, havea sound- er and nobler principle running through their platform than their opponents, but it is undeniable that its beauty has been greatly obliterated by many of the acts of those in authority, and as a result a success is rendered doubtiul, that ought to have been certain, and although the Republicans may carry their Candidates triumphantly through the contest, it will be owing as much to the folly of the Democrats, as to the strength and popul- arity of their party. Tue First Number of the Fourth Vol- ume of the JourNnAL is this week usher- ed into the world. ‘The conception of our mind three years ago, when we pub- lished the first newspaper in Prince County, is now one of the fixed, recogni- zed fuets of Prince Edward Island's his- tory. Our weekly sheet has taken its stand among the indispensable comforts of many Island homes. During the short but eventful period of our existence, we have ever kept before us the object im- plied in our title. ‘That title, as we have gazed onit, has often suggested to us the means of weekly instructing and pro- fiting our readers. As a Journal, we have striven to chronicle the carliest news, and maintain an uninterrupted re- cord of all things great and small, which were interesting and useful. We have spared neither pains nor expense to em- ulate the spir.t and pravtice of the great leaders of journalism, whose marvellous success of first gleaning and then pre- senting in an interesting form the earliest intelligence from all quarters of the globe, is one of the great features of the nine- teenth century. As a Vioncer Journal, we have striven to direct public attention to the wants, interests and resources of our Western Country. ‘There has been, we believe, much already effected in this matter, through the agency of our columns, and much remains to be done. We have the interests of our farmers and Mechanics much at heart, and shall continue to ad- yocate all measures conducing to the pros- perity of these ** solid men’ of our coun- try. We herewith return thanks to the pub- lie generally for the extensive ‘patronage we have received at their hands, Our circulation has steadily increased, and is now as large, ifnot the largest of any paper on the Island; a fact which will well shew the advantages possessed by our columns for advertising the wants and wishes of our patrons, ADVERTISING, in this age of the world, is a paying con- cern to those who thus call attention to their businese, and we trust that the be- nefit thus conferred by us on the business prospects of the Island is not small. Our thanks are especially due to our good paying subscribers, through whose prompt assistance we haye been enabled so successfully to prosecute our under- taking. Our terms evidently favor the system of pre payment, being on® Dor- LAR in advance, but otherwise NINE SHIL- uincs. ‘To all delinquents we would re- spectfully say, ‘Pay up.” We- have given you our time and labor, mental and physical, and we appeal to your better feelings, and ask have we nota right to our pay. And now in commencing our fourth yolume, we do so under auspicious cir- cumstances, and with much faith in the public good will. We are friends of all, and enemies of none, and we hope to labor well and faithfully during the com- ing year to the instruction and profit of all our readers. We will, at the same time, never fear to expose the wrong and maintain the right, whether that wrong be committed by an individual or by a government. ce SUPREME OOURT. The October term of this Court was opened at Saint Eleanor’s on last ‘Tues. day, Chief Justice Honason presiding. In common with all classes of the people of Prince County, we were pleased to sce the venerible Chief Justice again in this circuit, in his judicial capacity. His Lordship appears hale and active, and we sincerely wish that many years will yet be added to his already long and un- blemished life. Ilis Lordship delivered the usual charge to the Grand Jury, notes of which, we regret to say, we were un- able to obtain. As usual, our friends of the long robe, scem to have bags full ot writs for the good people of the County. In th ab- aon certain were of that kind which is worthy the at- tention of all interested in raising good stock, Indeed there were a great number of excellent cows on the ground, small, thin necks being a characteristic teature in them all, We particularly noticed a fine bull, labelled to weigh 1382 Ibs., but were unable at the time toa ain who owned him, and the rain suppressed our further enquiries, There were several heavier ani- mals on the ground, but we question il there was one better adapted to this Coun- try. i The sheep far surpassed any that were brought on the grounds here, Phe pens of lambs, owned respectively by Messrs. Longworth and Wright, were really excel- lent, while several others were almost equally good. Mr. George Gardiner of Bedeque, brought on the grounds a horse lately imported vy him from Canada, which was admired, we think, by every person on the grounds; and with one exception we heard him des- eribed as being free from at least any no- ticeable blemish. ** Lhat’s the horse” was 2% common expression, Mr. iner doubtless deserving of great praise for importing so ling an animal. The horses and cattle generally were not better than those shown at Summerside, ‘The Queen’s County Cattle Show, taken as a whole,we are certain may be safely regarded as highly creditable, not merely to those most interested, but to Prince Euward Island. Tn the Drill Shed were arranged for the free inspection of the publie, on ‘Tuesday, the poultry, grain, horticulture, fruit, but- ter and cheese; textile fabrics in wool, flux and knit goods, The poultry, in our opinion, was hot su good as some displayed in Summerside; nor do we think the grain was any better; but with the exception of cuuliflowers, tomatoes, and we may add turnips and potatoes, all the articles ar- ranged under the head of * horticulture” were much larger and richer looking than those which were exhibited in this County. The fruit, butter and cheese we did not consider better than what was exhibited here, The knit articles and hooked mats were, We think, also, in a few instances better, Mrs. Strong's oil painting was quite equal, we should say, to any in the Drill Shed on exhibition in’Charlottctown, Our space does not permit us to dwell longer upon the Exhibition of Local In- dusury for 1868, in Queens County but we have vo doubt but that the Exhibitions in all the Counties this year fully justilies the wisdom of the Legislature in the provision made for holding them, and will simulate to increased coinpetition in those grand industrial pursuits which are destined to add so much tu the prosperity of this Col- ony.
