We then ordv i-.d tin boat to be launches into tne sea, with a man in it, and hauled up again, at the sight of w.nch they set no bounds to their clamor. The icc anchor, a heavy pieze of iron, shaped like the letter o. and the caole excited much interest; the former they tried in vain to remove; and thev eagerly inquired of what bkin the latter was made. By this time the officers of both ships had surrounded them, while the bow of the Isabella, which was close to the ice, was crowded with the crew; and certainly a more ludicrous, yc t interesting scene, was never beheld, than that which took place whilst the were viewing the slop; nor is it possible tocoovev to the imagination any thing like a just itpie-ent uion of the wild amacimnt, joy and fear, which suc-

ce-sivelv pervaded the countenan

ces, and governed the gestures of these creatures, who gave full vent to their feelings ; and I am -sure it was a gratifying seen "vvhieii never can be forgotten !v those who witnessed and enjoved it. I heir knowledge of wood seemed to be limited to some heath of a dwarfish growth, with stems no jam Over than the finger, and aeeordmglv they knew not what to think of the timber thev saw on board. Not being aware of its weight, two or three of them suc-ees-ivelv' seia d on the spare topmist, evidently with the vi -w of earning it o;f; and as soon as :h v" became familiar with the people ;- r;iin l them, they showed that desire of pos-.ossing what they admired, which i s so universal atnont; savages. The onl e thing thev look cd on with contempt u ;i, little terrier d'.jg, jud ;ing, no doubt, that it ua too small for drawing a -1 . d -v; bat thev shrunk back, as if in terror, from a pig, whose pricked tar., ana ier v ious aspect, being of the?

Thi am nal h i;vk ninr to prunt, one of them was so terrified thai he became fiom that moment uneav, and app; tred i:npat'u nt to get out of the seep.

On being shown tb.e glass oi the sky light and binnacle, t.'iey tone bed it, and desired to know v, hat kind of ice it was. During this scene, (me of them wandered to the main hatch, and btoopang down, saw the sargeant 1 marines, uhu.c id coat produced a loud exclamation of wonder, while libs own attitude and figure did not less surprise our tars, who, lor the first time, discovered some unexpected peculiarities in the dress of the natives. I he three nun remaining were now handed down tomv cabin, and shown the use of the chairs, which they did not comprehend, appearing to have no notion of anv other seat than the ground. Being seated we attempted to take their portraits, in which lieut. Hopper, Mr. Skene, IIr. Bushman, and myself were at the same time employed. During this attempt, fearful it might alarm them, we amused them with questions, collectin;from them at the same time the information w c thought it desirable to obtain, and directing Sadicusc

to ask those questions whirli the

purified nature of this visit permitted us to recollect as most essential, and of which the result will appear hereafter. Our drawing being completed, and inti rrogatories ended, thev began to be cr- inquisitive, asking the use of every thing in the cabin; we showed them paper, hooks, drawing, and various mathematical instruments, which produced only the usual cfb ct of astoneJiing them; but on lu-'mg shewn the prints in Cook's Vovage of the natives of Olahcite, they attempted to irrasp them, evidently eoinpivher.din that thev were the ! cprcventation uf human beings. The sight of a writing d -k, a bureau, and of other woodc n furniture, also excited their astonishment, but apparently from the nature of the materials oniv, as thev seemed to ferm no idea of their nvs. hey were now conducted to the gun-room, and afterwards round t'y ship, but without appearing to distinguish anv thing nartieularle ec p: tlie Wuao in her construe- - 1 no 1, sta aiping on the deck, as if m evident surprise at the ounntifv 01 m;, aluabie matt nab n f 10 pes 01 amusing them, the vielin was sent lor, a id some tunes played; thev, however paid no attention to tins, seeming cuke unconcerned eiiiier eout the sounds or ib- nrIi jl'ilil l'.l Mil! r. : . .t' t"i t cicnt pre si' That the s an aecuir. .1 tustf.

Some salt-meat that was afterwarus odv t ed produced the same eiiect. We now ascertained their nanu , that ;f tlie eldest be-in;,-jeivhk, and that of tlu- twn others who were hi, brother's sons, abu-guu k and Oianiah. Some jug.'kr's U'uka were afterwards cxiiemed by M. Beverly, which sexm- d t a disco;et 1 1 them, as they beeame uneasy, and expressetl a wish to go on deck. 7c accord -ingiy accompanied them, and bv pointing to the pieces of ice that were alongside, attempted to discover to what ex:eiit thev could count, for tire purpose of ascertaining the. numbers of their nation. We found, however, they could only reckon to ten; ami on enquiry, therefore if their country possessed as manv inhabitants as there were pieces of ice, they replied, "Many more;" a thousand iragmcnia were, perhaps, then floating round the ship. The knives had by this time been examined by the armouror, who thought they were made from pieces ol iron hoop or from liattened luaiis; e therefore asked, if any plank or wreck had formerly been driven on their shore; to winch they replied, that a piece ot wood 'with some nails bad come on shore and been picked up. rc there fore concluded, that the knives w Inch hud been left us had been formed from this iron, and consenuently niade no lurthei enquiries. They were now loaded with various presents, consisting of some articles of clothing, biscuit, and pieces of wood, in addition to vdiich the plank that had been used m crossing the chasm was given to taem. They then departed, promising to return as soon as thev had eaten Sc slept, as we had no means of explaining to them w hat to-htoriuw meant. The parting uUe"d-d

with the ceremony of pulling ncscs on both sides. After they had reached and crossed the chasm, they were obser -ed by some men who bad been sent lo accompany them, throwing awav the biscuit, and splitting the plank's which was of teak into small pieces, iuv the purpose of dividing it among the party. Soon after this, they mounted their sledges, and drove off in a bodv hoilooire , apparently in great dec." '

TOPICS OF THE AURORA. Improbability cf an Eurcpcait Many people Lug the delusion of an approaching war with Europe the occurrance is not morally possible. The general disturber of Europe is exhausted of that stimulating power without which armies much less navies cannot move. The necessity of a loan of iz millions, and of an inroad of 12 millions more on the sinking fund so sacredly appropriated to thc discharge cf the national debt the poverty and misery produced by enormous taxes, and a ruinous system of extravagance in princes', pensionevs priests, and paupers, all of which are necessary parts of the same unnatural system; these are the certain indicators of peace in Europe and in other parts ol the earth. Welti ngtev's Mission to Sweden. The mission of thc Duke of Wellington therefore presents: in thc prominence of the character the evidence of a doleful embassy: to him, alone, who sent Ney to thc lusilade, could be entrusted an unpleasant condolence on the inability of Eng land to sustain him on the Swedish throne opposed to the holy ailiance, and to the eloquence or silence and indifference manifested by France. The distinction of the messenger is tha. lenitive for the wound: the excuse for his abandonment. Prejudice in favor cf forcizv Manufactures. Mr. Saltmarsh, of thc house: of Rawson and Salt marshes, i British agent, of Halifax, Eng. broached, with a great deal ot irony, in a warehouse in Philadelphia, the subject of domestic manufactures, which caused the owner of the store to shew him a piece of superfincc: cassimere of English manufacture, which he called American whereupon Mr. Saltmarsh began toabuse it, in every respecr both as to the dyeing and weaving, saying that he could seethe American texture in it. Her then handed him a piece of superiine domestic cassimere, made by Win. Young, &. Co. and called it English. Ah! observed Mr. S that is something: like look at the dyeing of that it is farsuperior, beyondcomparison, and worth twice as much- which was the fact. Suffice to say, that this partem card fool was not undeceived until a fair opportunity ofiei cd to shame him for his unblu-di, ing effrontery; that which w as, presented to him as EnglisU being American manufactme; and that presented as Atncricau being English manufacture
