Excerpt from Magnetical Observations in the Arctic Seas Dear sir: The records of the magnetic Observations made under the direction of Dr. Kane, in the second expedition to the Arctic regions, were placed in my hands by his late lamented father, Judge Kane, in December last. Dr. Kane had selected Assistant Charles A. Schott, of the Coast Survey, for the reduction of a considerable portion of the observations made in that expedi tion; and I, therefore, placed these in Mr. Schott's possession for reduction and discussion.
