THE BRITISH EXPEDITION.
Fall Report* of Captain -Vare’i Failure
to Reach the Rorth Polo.
London Daily Newt.— I The following tel
egram form V*lenu*ha been forwarded to
ua by a member of the expedition: ‘We
have not reached the Pole. The paasage
wae impracticable. We wintered in 82 deg.
37 min, The highest latitude reached by
the sledges waa HS. 07 min. The highest
land, 83 deg. 7 min ; the furthest west, bo
deg. longitude. ;, il.ady Franklin Strait* is a
hay. No Preatdent’a Laud exists. Peter
man Fiord waa stopped by a glacier. The
moat northern point of Greenland seen waa
82 deg. 57 min. Our correspondent at Va
leria sends us the following telegram, da
ted last night: 'This morning the Alert, one
of the two vessels which left England seven
teen months ago on the Arctic expedition,
arrived to this harbor. The following are
the details of her voyage: After leaving
port Foultce, on the 2th of July, 1875, she
entered the ice off Cape Sabine. After as.
vere and continuous struggle she reached the
north side of Lady Franklin Bay, where the
Discovery was left in winter quarters. The
Alert reached the limit of navigation on the
shore of the Polar Sea, the ice varying up to
150 lieet thick. President’s Land does not
exist. Bbe wintered in 82 deg. 27 min. The
sun was absent 143 days. Spring travel
ling was intensely laborious; a detachment
journeying northward over the Polar does
waa absent seventy days, and reached 83
deg. 20 min. The party rounded Cape Co
lumbia, the extreme northern point of Amer
ican land, and traced the shose 220 miles
west. Greenland was explored far to the
eastward. The sledgera all suffered from
scurvy. They met no game. Hans Chris
tian Peterson died of iroat-bite; George Por
ter, of the Alert: James Hand and Charles
Paul, of the Discovery, died while sledging.
There was no Esquimaux met with. All
traces of them ceased north ol 81.22. No
iceberge were seen beyond Cape Union.
Only on* bear waa seen during the absence
from the ship. So rugged was the ice that
■ledges could advance only one mileadav;
but they reached latitude 83 deg. 20 min al
ter a terrible struggle, being within 400 miles
of the Pole.
■mi wtSTir qcAßTeas.
While in winter quarter* parties from the
ship made rich natural history c ollections,
and numbers of valuable scientific observa
tions were taken. Coal, too, was found of
excellent quality near the Discovery, and
beautiful fossil remains of coral were found
in the extreme north, The Expedition
experienced the coldest weather ever regis
tered, the temperature being 59 degrees he
low zero lor a fortnight. The extreme low
est temperature on any day was 104 degrees
below freezing point. The Alert put into
Valentia in consequence of her rudder shift
ing. She sighted the Pandora all well!
south of Cape Farewell on October 16: screw
slightly damaged by the ice. The Pandora
called at the stations on Littleton Island and
Cape Isabella, but was unable to reach Cape
Sabine. The expedition not calling at Lit
tletown Island on returning, missed the let.,
ters left there by the Pandora. The Alert
parted company with the Discovery on the
19th. The latter ha* gone to Queenstown
The health of crew, with the exceptions re
ferred to above, has been good. Frost bites
were severe, but not numerous. Scurvy at
tacked several of the sledge parties of the
expedition. There was no sickness on the
ice. Petersen, the interpreter, died forty
days after the amputation of both feet lor
frost-bite. Among the curiosities brought
home by the officers of the Alert is a speci
men of wheat deposited by the Polaris when
that vessel was quartered in the Arctic re
gions. Both officers and crew speak in un
measured praise of Captain Nares. He has
in anxious times been on deck, with the ex
ception of a few hours, night and day for
thirty days, eucouraging and assisting hi*
well-tried crew. Upon arriving at Valentia
Captain Nares with three officers, left imme
diately by special train to meet the evening
express from Killarney en route to London.
He takes with him many interesting relics
of the expedition—pttotogralphs. charts, Ac.
A touching memorial has been erected by
tbe officers and crew of the expedition over
the graves of their deceased comrades, pho
tographs of which have been taken and pre
served. The absence of fresh meat for such
a lengtheneed period has been much felt by
all, and next to home, the sight of mutton
has been the long-desired wish of their hearts.
results of thf expedition.
An old whaler of great Arctic experience,
who has been no less than twenty-five times
to the Arctic circle, declares that no other
expedition has ever obtained such satisfac
tory results as the present, and its silcress
has been much more than he anticipated.
He the pole, of which they were in 400
miles, is surrounded by ice, the thickness of
which he actually gave as 200 feet. The
opinion of all connected with the expedition
is that to reach the pole or to do more than
has been done by the Alert and Discovery
is simply impracticable.’ The same corre
spondent semis the following additional par
ticulars. ‘The Alert parted with her con
sort; owing to severe weather in the Atlan
tic. In latitude 81.30 they met iee-bergs
200 feet deep. Both ships were at this time
about sixty-seven miles apart, each sending
out separate sleigh expeditions on the ice,
which, looking northward, appeared inter
minable. Each took a different route. They
returned to their respective ships after great
exertion, one party having been away
eighty-four days and the other seventy-five,
and in each case the men were in a very
helpless condition, the officers being obliged
to bring some of them back on the sleighs.
In this high lattitude they have not met
many living things. They saw some traces
of the Esquimaux. Scarcely any fowls were
obtained. They were exclusively used for
invalids suffering from scurvy. The meet"
ing between the inhabitants and the officers
and men was of the most cordial descrip
tion. The Alert was not identified for
some time, though dying the while ensign.
The whole of her planking shows signs that
she has suffered considerably from the ice,
and her rudders (for she had a spare one)
have both been very much damaged. One
of these is at present being temporarily re
paired to enable her to reach Queenstow n,
whither she proceeds for coal and to join
her consort, the Discovery.

The following is an extract from a description, published in tho New York Tribune, by the wel
known agriculturist, Solon Robinson:
All the farmers were of tbe “well to do" sort, and some of them, who have turned their attention
to fruits and market gardening, have grown rich. Th.e soil is loam, varying trom sandy to clay, y,
and surface gently undulating, intersected with small streams and occasional wet meadows, m
which deposits oi peat or muck are stored, sufficient to fertilize the whole upland surface, alter it
has been exhausted of its natural fertility.
It is certainly one of the most extensive fertile tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable
condition for pleasant farming, that wo know of this side of the Western prairies. We found some
of the oldest farms apparently just as profitably productive as when first cleared of forest fifty or a
hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discover the cause of this continued fertility. Th whole country la a
marine deposit, and allthrough the soil we found evidences of calcareous substances, general!* In
the form of indurated calcareous marl, showing many distinct forms of ancient shells, of the tertia
ry formation; and this marly substance is scattered all through the soil, in a very comminuted
form, and in the exact condition most eiwily'assimilated by such plants as the farmer desires to
cultivate.
