= CAPTAIN PARRY'S PROJECTED VOYAGE. REPORTS have been in circulation for ittne tiroe of another voyage to be un- ^itakeo thaf-rntrep'id navigator, who has now passed three winters frozen up at the North Pole. At length these re- ports have assumed a mere authentic shape, and we are able to inform our readers, that Captain Parry is certainly io proceed another voyage, and to point out the course be is to pursue. It Mill probably be recollected, that Captain Parry, in his first voyage, discovered, after entering Lancaster Sound, but did not expl°reJ an opening, which he caUed Prince H.eent's Inlet-leaving that,which seemed to turn to the South West, on his left hand, he proceeded, beset with ice and dangers, straight forward, as it were, in a North Westerly direction. This inlet promised "eli at the time, but the body Lancaster Sound was not then exptofd, and therefore the inlet was ne- ceRsaffty passed by. We understand, that the Admiralty have resolved that this iulet shall also be examined, in or der that no opening which promises suc- tess may be neglected. Capt. Parry is therefore to proceed the ensuing summer, in his old and good ship the Hecla, to Prince Hegent's I ntet. From the situation "'here Hear" discovered the sea, and the -apparentdirection of this inlet, we should Tie led to anticipate a favourable result,— Of course the voyage is not planned with- out Capt. Parry's approbation, and we aro given to understand he expects to socceedi if any where, in this direction If ti,, wished-for discovery should not be lOade in this ttireetioti, at least so enter- priSing an officer cannot be employed there without adding more even than he hitherto <i°,ie to oar knowledge of fCian, which, before modern improve- W»ffbt US l° mas,rr the eie~ r$- ;■ -X -jnacressnjlt?^o the- inhabitants were j;m:Jt(eS.
