The 26th of September, in short, had arrived before they were fixed in their winter quarters in five fathoms water, and within about 200 yards from the shore. The lat. of this harbour, (if we recollect rightly, named Winter Harbour,) is 74 deg. N. and and long. 111 deg. W. Hitherto they had never lost sight of a continuous barrier of ice to the southward, that is, from W. long. 90 deg. to the extreme of Melville Island. Every thing was soon made snug for the formidable winter of these regions. The officers and crews formed various plans for passing the dreary days, or rather nights of the polar regions. Plays were performed by the officers for their own amusement and that of the crews; and we are told, that a melo-drama was written, having for its object the probable success of the expedition, and their ultimate return to their friends, through Behring's Straits, after having planted the British flag in countries which had eluded the bold and fearless darings of a Davis and a Baffin. amidst the trackless wilds of Melville Island. quantity as to remove all those symptoms When the sun had its greatest southern Having failed in this attempt to reach the south-western land, and the winter again approaching, the vessels now sailed directly eastwards, through the Polar Ses, and Barrow Straits, into Sir James Lancaster's Sound, thence into Baffin's Bay, and by the usual track homewards. The sun entirely disappeared on the 11th November. The thermometer was below Zero of Fahrenheit's scale, when the expedition entered Winter Harbour. In the month of November, the spirit of wine thermometer was 50. below Zero, and in February, the coldest month of these regions, the spirit of wine pointed to the tremendous cold of 54 and 55 below Zero.

BIRKBECK'S SETTLEMENT. "Wanborough, English Prairie, State of Illinois, North America, Feb. 10, 1820. "I arrived at this place on the 26th September, 1819, after a travel of upwards of 5,000 miles, by sea and land, in good health, as well as all my family, and have been so throughout our journey, except a little sea sickness and slight colds. The weather was very hot when we landed at Baltimore, on the 6th July, and continued so until the end of October, with the exception of a few nights, and then warm and pleasant until the middle of December, after which it was mostly cold until the beginning of this month (Feb.) sometimes much colder than I ever knew it in England. We have had a very deep snow, of at least 18 inches upon the level; but since the beginning of this month, it has rained almost every day, and the creeks are now pretty full of water, which makes it bad travelling, as there are no bridges built yet in this part of the country. Until now, there has been but little rain at any time since the last spring, often. cans for themselves and cattle; but the English are not fond of their Indian corn bread. The corn is considered very good for horses, pigs, &c., so are the pumpkins, which grow to a very large size: they make excellent pies, and them, for winter use. Apple and peach trees are not yet are often preserved, by cutting them in slices and drying come to perfection, but grow very well. A few miles from us, in the state of Indiana, apple and peach trees were very plentiful: as we came through the country, we were once offered five bushels of peaches for a dollar, not quite 11d. per bushel. I have got about 20 peach-trees, and shall have 100 apple-trees to plant in an orchard in my land in a few days. The native Americans are an idle set of people; those the country round us being now more settled, many of them who live around us here subsist principally by hunting; but wish to sell their land, and move up to a less settled place; some are already gone to the Red River, 700 miles south-west from here: indeed, moving a few hundred miles is not thought any thing of by them. The hunters bring in venison, turkeys, prairie fowls, and rabbits for sale very A good deer of from 30 to 100lb. weight, is often bought for a dollar; and I have bought many large turkeys kill deer, rabbits, raccoons, opossums, prairie fowls, quails, for a quarter dollar each. William and John frequently &c. The rabbits do not burrow in the earth, but mostly run in the hollow trees. Horses are mostly of a light kind, and sell as high as 100 dollars for a good one. Oxen and cows are of a middling size and good shape. A good cow and calf may be bought for 20 dollars; beef sells from 2d to 3d. per lb.: mutton is scarce, there not being as yet many sheep kept around here, and those that are kept are mostly of a poor coarse sort, but mutton is as low as beef. Hogs are very plenty, and of a middling good sort; but owing to the many hundreds that are left to shift for themselves in the woods during the winter, they are as poor as well can be, and many die of hunger when the snow is deep. Cows, sheep, and hogs, are all marked in different forms, each has his own mark, and the marks of different persons areas or cabins are built with logs and plaistered with are all entered in the county court.

Some years since, and before stage coaches were so numerous in Ireland as at the present day, the proprietors of the only one between Newry and Dublin had emblazoned forth on a conspicuous pannel of their coach, the words "Paratus ad arma;" to announce their promptness for action, as well as their preparation to put down all opposition. A learned inhabitant of the ancient Pontana, (Drogheda,) began very gravely to spell the motto: thus, "P-A-R-A-T-U-S-Pratoes!" exclaimed he in surprise, "Pratoes at Armagh!
