To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They have, in short, ex- punged the blot of obscurity which would otherwise have hung over and disfigured the page- of the history of this enlightened age ; and, if we except the lamentable fate which befel the expedition under Sir John Franklin, we shall find that they have been attended with as little if not less average loss of life than that of the ordinary course of mankind. And if any one should be disposed to weigh their ad- vantages in the scale of pecuniary profit, they will find that ...there also they have yielded fruit, if not to us, at least to a sister nation in whose welfare we are greatly interested, and whose generous sympathy in the fate of our countrymen endears her to us, and would render it impossible that we should begrudge her this portion of the advan- tage of our labours. I need hardly remind you of the Eeport from the Secretary of the United States Navy to the Senate, to the effect that in consequence of information derived from one of our Arctic expeditions to Behring Strait, a -trade had sprung up in America by "the capture of whales to the north of that Strait, of more value to the States, than all their commerce with what is called the East !
