THE ILL-FATED ARCTIC BXPEDITION

DISCOVERY OF THE REMAINS OI’ SIR JOHN FRANKLIN AND HIS CREW.

THEIR DEATH FROM STARVATION. Monrnuab, Oct. 20 I854

A dcspalch from Dr. Rae, dated at" York Factory, August 5, I854,” has been received by Sir George Simpson, Governor of the Hudson Bay Territory, narrating the discovery of the re- mains of Sir John Franklin and his unfortunate companions, who, it appears, were starved to death in the spring of I850, to the northwest of Box-river. The foregoing intelligence is regard- ed here as wflly reliable.

MONTIIAL, Oct. 21, I854.’

The Herald of this morning has the following: —In our extra of yesterday evening we informed the public that a rumour was current in town that the remains of Sir John Franklin, and of his crew and their ships, had been discovered. We immcdiatl despatched a special messenger to the liudecn a Company's house at Lochine, and through the indncss of the Governor Sir

Simpson, are enabled to in before our

readers the following outlines o a despntch received by him yesterday from e :- - Dr. Rae has been absent on the coast since the first of the month of June, 1853, and returned to York Factory on the 28th of Au- gust last, from whence he forwarded letters by express to Sir George Simpson, via the Red River settlement.

After briefly noticing the résult of his own expedition, and tho diliiculties with which they had to contend, he proceeds to state that from the Esquimnux he had obtained certain informa- tion of the fate ofSir John Franklin's ex; edition, who had been starved to death after the loss of their ships, which were crushed in the ice. and while makin their way sent to tho,Great Fish river ofgituclt, near the outlet of which a party of whites died, leaving accounts of their sulfei-in on the ‘mutilated cor s of seine which had-evidently furnished ood to their unfortunate com '

This information, although not derived from the Esquimaux who he communicated with the whites, and who found their remains, but from another band. who obtained the details eisn oocs, me at be relnied on. No doubt is left of the trut of the report, as the natives had in their possession various articles of European manufacture which had been in

sseesion of the Qhites. ' Among these are silver spoons, forks. d:c., on one of which is engraved “ Sir John Franklin, 11.,” while the others have create and initials on them which identify the owners as having belonged to the ill-fated expedition. Drawings of some of these ve been sent down.

This fearful tragedy must have occurred as Ion ago as the spring of 1850.

Late Montreal papers contain seine additional details concerning the discovery of Sir John Franklin's part , obtained by Dr. Rae fromthe Iiepuiraaux. The re rt is as follows :-

n the spring of] 60 a party of white men, nmountin to about forty, were seen travelling scuthwar over the ice, and tire with them, by seine Eequinianx l lane. who were killin seals on the north shore of Kin William's nd, which is it large island, nain “ Keliktak” by the uimaux. . None of the

rty could speak the native languageintelligi- bly, but by si us the nativu were made to nndcrshnd the their ships had been crpshed by ion, and that the whites were now going to where they expected to Ind deer to shoot. From the up rnnoc of the men, all of whom, «excsptons cbl.sf ofleer. ‘lgoketlf thin; they war: so posed to sing a rt o p , an _pn‘i-chased a ssa.froI the natives.

At a later date, during the same season, but previous to the disruption of the ice, the bodies oi about thirty white were discovered

yet known in

-expulsion,

tion, and that of the low shore in the neigh- bourhood of Point Ogle and Montreal Island, agree exactl with that of Sir George Black’s. Some of t e bodies had is buried, some were in tents, others under a boat that had been-turned over to form a shelter, and several ley scattered about in different directions. Of those found on the island, one was supposed to ave been an oflcer, as he had a telesco strap- ped over his shoulder, and his double rrelled gun lay underneath him. From the mutilated state ofmsny of the corpses, and the contents of the kettles, it is evident that the part had been driven to the last resource—“ canniba 'sm" -—as a means of prolonging life.

There appears to ave been an abundant stock of nmunition. as the powder was emptied in a heap on the ound by the natives, out of the cases containing it, and a quantity of ball and shot was found below high water mark, having been left on the ice close to the beach. There must have been a number of watches, telescopes, guns, &c., all of which appear to have been broken up, as Dr. Rec saw pieces of these diflerent articles witn the Esquimaux, together with some silver spoons and forks. As many of which as could be obtained were purchased, and a list of the most important relics found, with the drawings of others, were to be forwarded to London.

iriivo’s coi.r.:os, WINDSOR, N. s.

On Monday evening last a meeting of persons favourable to the welfare and prosperity of the above establishment took place pursuant to no- tice in the Infant School Room. Owin to the unfavcurableness of the weather there was not'so large on attendance as was anticipated. The meeting was opened by singing the 100th Psalm and appropriate prayer b the Rev. Mr. Lloyd who presid'ed,after which t e Rev. Gentle- man concisely stated the object of the meeting, and was followed at greater length by the Rev. Mr. Cochran. It is not—we regret——in our power to give more than a more summary of the Rev. Gcntleman’s address. After statiu that theiirst idea of the institution was stnrte by four clergyman of the town of New York, of whom Dr. Inglis, the father of the late bishop, and himself the first bishop of Nova Scotia, was one he guvc n succicnt history of the rise and progress 0 the institution to H.» present day. At an early period after the American Revolution the attention of the British ' ment was called to the necessit of uplreflng the interests of religion and e ucation in the Province ofNova Scotia——of which New Bruns- wick and .. . . then formed a part—an upon the Legislature of the Province passing an act givin a sum of mono to purchase a site for the inten ed College, and is permanent gran £400 sterling per annum,the Government of the Parent country contributed liberally towards the building, and gave on additional grant 0 £1,000 sterlin , permanent also. These grants fora length 0 time constituted the funds of the Colle , and were ap ropriated to the pay- ment of t c salaries of tie professors and the endowment of scholarshi s, and the susten- tion of the Academ of indsor in connection with the College. Vithout any fault commit- ted on the part of the Governors of the institu- tion or its professors, the imperial grant was first withdrawn ; this was supplied in part by the Society for the Propogation of the (ion el in foreign parts, by appropriating temporarily £500 per ann. for that purpose. This, however, was necessaril withdrawn, and lastly the rant of £400 whic had been secured by n so not of the Provincial Pnrliuincnt was ntteni to be withdrawn by Acts annually pussc for that pur so. These had. however, been suc- cessfully resisted by the friends of the institu-

' ' is compromise was cifccted with the Legislature ofNovu Scotiu and llli Act was pass- ed allowing the incorporated Alumni of King's College to choose their own Governors instead of those who held those situations or oflicio under the old Act, and which Governors arc to be of the Church of England. it then becuinc necessary that permanent funds, not depending on e will of any Legislature should be pro- vided and £10,000 being the smallest. sum esti- mated to be suliicicnt tor the pur use, it was considered advisable to appeal to tie members of the church in the different colonies, and it was for the purpose of enlisting thc sym uthies of those in this sland in the cause of t o Col- lege connected as it was with the religion they

rofsssed that the Rev. Gentleman had visited Charlottetown.

The Rev. gentleman then went on to say, that inde ndenty of soliciting the aid -of a I who felt isposed to contribute. there were certain permanent advantages to be derived by those who either singly or in the number of l'our contributed the sum ofJ.‘l00.

“ Any one or four persons contributing .L'l00_ Ilalifax currency,” said he, will receive a certificate under the seal of the College, en- titling him or them to send one pupil free of the expense of the fees of education, aniountin

t t to about £l3—und which will 0 course be enhanced, when the number of pro- fcssors is increased —which certificate is heritable and transferable and there was this additional advanta —of which the Rev. gentle- man was pertinent y reminded by H. Hassard

.—thnt in case of the upil being intended‘ for the Church, a scholarship of £30 would be added, thus enabliu him to go through the studies requisite for iris sacred profession with- out any expense tn his parents or friends save those ofbocks and clothes. The Rev. gentle- man then informed his audience, that two new réfessorships had been instituted, one of

Iiernistry and Natural history, which it was apparent would greatly increase the usel\il- ne'ss of the institution, and attract a greater number of upils, and the other one of Pastoral

heology; or the former, a gentleman of the highest reputation and attainments from t University of Glasgow had been secured and was ex cted shortly. and to the latter, the Rev. Mr. Hi I, had been already appointed and was in exercise of his utics. The Rev gentleman gave a bi h character of Mr. Hill which we would wi ingly insert, but must hasten on to the im rovsments which he stated had taken place in the menu ent of the institution. There was now no religious test excepting in cases of conferrin degrees in theology. l‘he introduction of sp rituous liquors on any pre- tence, ad been made hi hly penal, even to if requisite. he students instead of living separately and taking their morning and evenin meals in their own apartments as was near‘ 'e case, now rtahe of them in the common llell together. Students were allowed, If theituiarents or guardians chose, to board and I in private families, and vi reqieet to to branches of education, instead oi ‘dbl: three b all the diflssunt sci-

conceived would be most a plicable to his future pros ts in—life, and svote his whole attention t ereto. We are aware that the above is but a very meagre outline oftbe Rev. gentlemane address. but we write ‘from memory. he first Resolution was made after a short address by John Isiweon, Eeq., and seconded by the Hon, Joseph Hensley, as follows:

1. Itusoavsn, That the Collegiate institution at Windsor, N. S., has cotifcrrcd important benefits upon the surrounding Colonies. during the 65 years or its existence, and is justly entitled to general support, especially in the effort now being made to place it on a secure foundation.

This was passed unanimously.

The second Resolution was moved by Ctgpt. Orlebar and seconded the Rev. r. Fitzgerald, and we sincere y regret that we have not the means of giving the addresses of both these gentlemen, it is to the following effect:

2. Rlsol.vI:D, That considering the importance of Kin,'(’e College Windsor, N. S. for training up a native ministry, to supply the pulpils of this Diocese, it is the bounds.-n duty of every Church- men, to contribute to the utmost of his power, to the endowment now being raised for its support.

A subscription was then entered into and at the suggestion of the Rev. Mr. Fitzgerald a sum of £100 is proposed to be raised for the pur- chase of a certificate to beentrustcd to the Rcctor,Church wardens and Vestry of St. Pnul’s in Charlottetown w o are to nominate the Pupil, and who is we believe to be educated for the ministry.

And we forgot to add that the Rev. Mr. Cochran in the course of his address stated, that a gentleman of Nova Scotia had liberally made an offer of £1000, provided the other £9000 had been secured by a certain day, and that it was for the purpose of enabling the governors of the College to avail themselves of this noble offer, that they were anxious to complete the regular sum.

The doxology liavin been sung and the benediction pronounce by the Rev. Mr. Lloyd, the meeting scperatcd.

As soon as Mr. Cochran shall have completed his mission in this Island, we will publish the result of his application.
