A new voyage of discovery in the north is to take place the approaching summer. The expedition will leave the mouth of the Lena for the Icy Ocean, for the purpose of examining the coast of Siberia and the islands which were discovered north of that coast, some years since. As it is not yet decided whether those islands do not form a continent, and as they have only been visited during the winter, it will be very interesting to learn how nearly they may be approached during the summer, and to fix the extent of them.
