ground until Bosquet's division and the artillery reached the hights. The battle then became grand, and the Russians were steadily beaten back. Their flank having thus been turned, I could scarcely doubt the issue of the battle. The position, however was enormously strong. Fancy a gradually sloping country, without a single object to protect advancing troops, ending in a river sweeping round high cliffs of earth, in the centre of which, about three miles from thc sea, was an amphitheatre of hills this amphitheatre commanded the principal fords over this river and the open country beyond it was strengthened by an earthwork with 10 or 12 guns, and a per-] manent battery of 12 guns more. The great mistake of the Russians consisted in not sufficiently fortifying the hights to their, left, which might have been rendered exceedingly strong.

The most frightful mutilations the human body can suffer—the groans of the wounded—the packs, helmets, arras, clothes, scattered over the ground—all formed a scene that one can never forget. The two principal batteries having been carried the day was ours the Russians retired under a well sustained fire from our Horse and foot Artillery.

Generals Canrobert and Thomas were wounded, the first slightly (I saw him toward the end of the batttle), and the French suffered a great loss in the commander of the Zouaves, a very brave and able officer, greatly respected. The Turks forming the reserve were not under fire.— There has been

As tbe mist disappears a few bright spots are discernable in the late election. Here and there we find a county which has stood up manfully in defense of the great principles of Democracy.

In Scott the Democrats have also gained over a hundred., In Dubois there is 150 gain over 1852. In Jachson there is a large gain. So also in Hancock, and in other

SON.

YORK FACTORV, August 4, 1854. MY DEAR SIR GEORGE: Your several letters, public and private, of dates loth June and 1st December, 1853, and 13th and 16th June, 1854, were handed to me on the 28th ultimo, on my reaching Churchill, and I am rejoiced to learn that your health has benefitted so much by your visit to the north.

Let me now allude to the expedition affairs. I arrived hereon the 31st tilt., with my small party, in excellent health, but I am sorry to say without having effected our object. At the same time, information has been obtained and articles purchased from the natives, which places the fate of a portion, if not all, the then survivors of Sir John Franklin's misarable party beyond doubt—a fate the most deplorable—death from starvation, after having had recourse to cannibalism as a means of prolonging life.

I reached my old quarters at Repulse Bay, on the 15th August, and preparations were immediately commenced for wintering. On the 1st Sept., I explained to the men our position, the stock of provisions we had on hand, (not more than three months rations, and the prospects we had of getting more, &c., &c.,- pointing out all the°dangers and difficulltics of our position. All readily volunteered to remain, and our exertions to collect food and fuel went on with unabated energy. By the end of September, 109 deer, 1 musk ox, 53 brace of Ptarmigan, and one seal had been shot, and the nets produced 190 salmon.

Of the larger animals above enumerated, 9 deer and the musk ox were shot by myself, 21 deer by Misegan, (the deer hunter,) 14 by one of the men, 9 by Ouligbuck, and

Thc weather was finer on our return journey than when outward bound, and oui loads being lighter, our day's marches were nearly double the distance, and we arrived at Repulse Bay on the 20th May, without accident, except in one instance, in which one of the party lost a toe from a trost bite.

None of the Esqitimaux with whom I had conversed had seen the "whites," nor had they ever been at the place where the dead were found but had their inlormation from those who had been there and those who had seen the party when alive.

From the head of Felly Bay—which is a bay, spite of Sir H. Beaufort's opinion to the contrary—I crossed 60 miles ot land in a werstcrly direction, traced thc west shore from Castor and Pollux river to Cape Porter of Sir James Ross, and I could have got within 30 or 40 miles of Bellot Strait but I thought it useless proceeding further, as I could uot complete the whole.

Never in my former Arctic journeys had had I met with such an accumulation of obstacles. Fogs, storms, rough ice, and deep snow we had to fight against.
