Without steam power we could have done nothing. one old woman and a bay were found, but they served to us up the inlet for twenty-five miles, when ‘we arrived at their . For about a week we were in constant and most interesting communication with these friendly le. Briefly, the information obtained from them was, nothing whatever respecting the Franklin expedition had come to their knowledge, nor had any wrecks within the last twenty or thirty years reached their shores. ‘The remains of three wrecked ships are known to them; two of these appear to have been the whalers Dexterity and Aurora, wrecked in Angust, 1621, some seventy or eighty miles southward of Pond’s Inlet. The third vessel, now almost buried in the sand, lies a few miles east of Cape Hay. This le communicate overland every winter wah the tribes at Igloolik; they all knew of Parry’s ships having there in 1822-8, and had heard of years Dr. Rae’s visit to Repulse Bay, describit of Dr. 's vi ‘pul y, describing his boats as similar to our whale boat, and his party as living in tents, within snow-houses, smoking pipes, shoot- ing reindeer, &c. None dted. They remained there only ‘one winter. No rumor of the lost expedition has reached them. Within Pond’s Inlet the natives told us the ice decays away every year, but so long as any remains whales abound, Several large whales were secn by us, and we found among the natives a considerable quantity of whale- ‘bone and many narwhals’ horns, which they were anxious to barter for knives, files, saws, rifles and wool; they drew us some rude charts of the inlet, showing that it ex- Peres into an extensive channel looking westward into ‘ince Regent’s Inlet. ‘We could not but regret that none of our own whali friends—from whom we had recently received so m kindnese—were here to profit by so fayorable au opportu- nity. Leaving Pond’s Inlet on the 6th of August we yeached Beechy Island onthe 11th, and Janded a hand. | some marble tablet, sent on board for this purpose by Tady Franklin, bearing an appropriate inscription to the | memory of our lost countrymen in the Erebus and Torror. ‘The provisions and stores seemed in perfect order, but a small boat was much damaged from having been turned over and rolled along the beach by astorm. The roof of ‘the houge received some necessary repairs. Having em- barked some coals and stores we stood in need of, and touched at Cape Hotham on the 16th, we sailed down Peel Strait for 26 miles on the 17th, but finding the remainder of this channel covered with unbroken ice, 1 determined 10 make for Bellot Strait on the 19th August, examined in- to aupplies remaining at Port Leopold, aud left there a whaleboat which we bronght away from Cape Hotham, | for the purpose so as to aid us in our retreat should we be obliged . to abandon the Fox. The steam launch { had forced highcr up on the beach, and somewhat dai ‘by the ice. Prince Regent’s Iniet was unusu- H ally free from ice, but very little was seen during our | yun down to Brentford Bay, which we reached on the 20th of August. Bellot Strait, which communi- eates with the western sca, averages one mile in width by seventeen or eighteen miles iu length. At this time it was filled with drift ice, butas the season advanced became yaa clear; its shores are in many places faced with lofty granite clifts, and some of the adjacent hills rige to 1,000 feet; the tides are very strong, running six or seven knots at the springs. On the 6th of September we passed through Bellot Strait without obstruction, and secured the ship to fixed ice acrogs its western outlet. Yrom here, until the 27th, when I deemed it necessary to retreat intu winter quarters, we constantly watched the anovements of the ice in the western sea or channel. In mid-channel it was broken up and drifting abont; gradn- ally the jon of water increased, until at longth the » which intervened was reduced to three or four miles in | width. But this was firmly held fast by numerous islets, | and withstood the violence of the autumn gales. It was ( tantalizing beyond description thus to watch from day to | day tho free water which we could not reach, and whi washed the rocky shore a few miles to the southward of us. During the autumn attempts were made to carry slepots of provisions towards the maguetic pole, but “ti almost entirely failed in consequence of the disruption of the ice to the southward. Lieutenant Hobson returned -with his sledge parties in November, after much suffering | svom gevere weather, and imminent peril on one occasion, | ‘when the ice upon which they were encamped became | detached from the shore, and drifted off to leeward with ‘them. put ‘Strait, in a sung harbor, which 1 have named Port Ken nedy, alter my predecessor in these waters, smansler of one of Lady Frauklin’s former searé ex editions.

Only one family was met with off Point Booth, and none at Montreal Island or any place subsequently visited.

My impression at the time, and which I si is, records were deposited there by the retreating crews and subsequently removed by the natives. Atter parting from me at Cape Victoria, on the 28th of April, Lieutenant Hobson made for Cape Felix. Ata short distance westward of it he found a very large cairn, and close to it three small tents, with blankets, old clothes, and other relics of a or & magnetic station; but alt sh the cairn was dug under, and a trench dug all round it at a distance of 10 feet, no record was discovered.

N.,”’ a small medicine chest, oars, &c. Afew miles southward, across Back Bay,a second record was found, having been deposited by Lieutenant Gore and M. des Vooux in May, 1847. It afforded no addi- tional information. Lieutenant Hobson continued bis gearch until within a few day’s march of Cape Herschell, without finding any trace of the wreck or of natives. He left full information of hig important discoveries for me; therefore, when re- turning northward by the west shore of King Wiliam Island, I had the advantage of knowing what had already been found. Soon after leaving Cape Herschet! the traces of natives: became less numerous and less recent, and after rounding the west point of the island they ceased altogether. This shore is extremely low and almost Geet § destitute of vegetation. Numerous banks of shingle and low islets lie off it, and beyond these Victoria Strait is covered with heavy and impenetrable packed ice.

She mea- sured 28 feet in length by 734 feet wide, was most care- fully fitted, and made as light @ possible, but the sledge was of solid oak and almost as heavy as the boat. A large quantity of clothing was found within her, also two human skeletons.

CAUSE OF THE DUEL. &., &e., &e, Sr. Loum, Oct. 6, 1859. ‘The overland mai) of the 16th uit. reached Jefferson City to-day. ‘The duel between Senator Broderick and Chief Justice Terry took place near San Francisco, on the morning of the 13th ult. Broderick fell at the first fire, having been pierced through the lungs. He lingered till half-past nine o'clock. on the morning of the 16th, when he died. The community was profoundly agitated by the melan- choly event. Judge Terry escaped unhurt. During the political campaign closed by the election on the 7th ult., Senators Gwin and Broderick hurled deflance at one another, while expressing their readiness to settle their private griefs in a private way, or in the manner usual among gentlemen. A duel was looked for after the election, and the report that they were to fight, there- fore, excited no great astonishment, though the result was anticipated with intense interest. But instead of a duel ‘between Brodec'-k and Gwin, it turned out that the affair ‘was to be between Broderick and Chief Justice Terry, of the Supreme Court. In the Hxnaup, about two months Bince, the difficulty that occurred between Broderick and lawyer named Perley, in which Judge Terry’s name figured, was detailed in full, and the subsequent correspon- dence between Broderick, Periey aud Kewen wasalso given in full. Broderick on that occasion, at the breakfast table of the International Hotel, in San Francisco, said that Terry, (who delivered a speech at the Democratic State Conyen- tion attacking Broderick), did not treat him well, and that if he had received his deserts the Vigilance Commitee, when they held him (Terry) prisoner, would haye hung him. He also said that when inthat trouble Terry re- ceived his active aid, and his (Terry’s) conduct was a poor return for the services rendered him when he wanted friends. Perley challenged Brederick, and, as is known, he declined to fight, on the ground that Perley was an in- ferior. Soon after, Broderick announced from the stump that he would not accept a challenge before the election, but that after it was over he was ready for any of his enemics. On Friday morning, the 9h ult., Broderick was waited on by Mr. Calhoun Benham as the friend oP Terry, who delivered a chalienge to mortal combat. It was at opce accepted, and it is understood the conditions agreed on were, that mo person except the principals, seconds and surgeons were to know of the time or place of the duel. Broderick and Terry immediately left the city, a fact which soon became wide- ly known and caused the greatest excitement. Expecta- tion was on tiptoe, and the sole topic of conversation was concerning the contemplated fight. it seems that a cor- respondence was opened with the view of settling the difficulty. ‘The report is that Broderick was ready to give satisfaction by mating that, although he used the language complained of on the spur of the moment and in the heat of personal debate, such were not the feelings of his heart. It is said this apology or explanation was not satisfactory, and a meeting was agreed on to take place at five o'clock on the morning of the 12th ult., the weapons to be six-shooters. At the appointed, time that morning whe parties were on the field in presence of about two hundred spectators and several police officers. The spot selected, near the Lake House, beyand the Mis- sion, and in San Francisco county, did not .turn out satiefactory to the seconds, either in consequence of the nature of the ground or the presence of the police officers, who expressed determination to prevent the duel taking place. Iwo other places were examined, when, at length, the party crossed the line into San Mateo at a little after o'clock that morning fixed on the spot and commenced measuring the ground. The principals, with their seconds, in a few minutes took their appointed places. At this mo- ment the Chief of Police and three officers interfered. One of their number went up to Broderick and presented their county, and seven a warrant for bis arrest, while another approached Terry. They denied the authority of the officers to arrest, as they were out of the limits of San Francisco; but it seems that the warrant was endorsed by a San Mateo magistrate. After considerable time spent in deliberation they sur- rendered themselves and were liberated on parole. Messrs. Broderick and Terry then agreed to appear be- fore the Police Court at two o’clock on Monday afternoon, the 12th ult., the day before the duel. The result of that proceeding is a matter of little consequence now, as it did not prevent the hostile meeting. Itis said that Judge Terry resigned his seat on the bench before leaving Sacramento. His seconds were Messrs. Calhoun Benham and Thomas Hayes. Mr. Bro- derick’s seconds were Messrs. J. C. McKibben and another whose name we do not know, but probably either ex-Sherit Colton, of Yreka, or Mr. John A. Monroe, of San Francisco. AvoTHeR Prizk Figur to Comm Orr.—It is said that Edward Price, who recently won the fight with Kelly, re- ceived a challenge yesterday from George King, of Bos- ton, to fight him in Canada, at such time as the partics may determine upon, and that Price has accepted. King challenged Price before the latter agreed to fight Kelly, but King withdrew in favor of Kelly, who was accepted as a substitute by Price: King has now determined to try his band in the ring. The papers for the combat between Price and King e been drawn, and « deposit of $50 a side made, the terms to be arranged the present week at the Clipper office. John C. Heenan, the Benicia Boy, is to act as the trainer and second of Price. The fight is to come off in about three mouthe. Price left for Boston ast night.
