My Loan—ln the absence ort ommodore Joseph Monroe, C.B. it is my duty to report to your Excellency the result of my researches in satertaioing the existeoce of the Telentaque Shoal and Albion Bank. I have therefore to acquaint you, that haring gained the latitude and longitude of the Shoal or Bank, as seen by the ' Master of the Albion merchant ship, we continued bevel's log and sounding over it In every direetiou until the 3d Inst. without gaining soundings, or observing any thing like • shoal, bank, or broken water, and being fully satisfied that no shoal was in the latitude sod longitude laid down, I pro ceeded to examine the Telemsque; and having reached Its latitude and longitude on the ISt% instant, as pointed out by. various shirt, I traversed over the whole of the ground io every direction, sounding almost every hour, with from 130 to 176 fathoms line out sad upwards, but found no bot tom, nor ■ny appearance that could justify the supposition of a shoal-bank being near; and from the observations sad remarks made during the time we have been out, I have so he-itation in deciding, that no suck shoals or ►anks as the Telemaque or Albion eau r existed ; and I trust that our ex ertions will put to rest the uon•existesce of them. I have no doubt that the A [blot, as well as other ships navigating these seat, have met with heavy and confused n eat, which break occasionally into white tops, ■nd appear as if • shoal was in the vicinity; but as we ha►e experienced the same without gaining any bottom, I am of opinion those heavy seas are caused by the current setting against the wind, especially after a continuance of strong easterly gales, and assisted, perhaps, by a change to a westerly gale, which must in such deep water cause a confused and heavy sett, each as the Master of the Albion experienced. During the whole of the time we have been examining these shoals, it has been blowing very haid, atteudid with a heavy sea; and, from our passing so close to them, without finding any bottom, and su appearance of danger, it is im possible there could he any such shoals in existeuce, without my discovering and ascertaining their position. I have,t►erefore, to request your Excellency wilFbe pleased to make these remarks as public as possible, for the benefit of navigation in general, particularly to those ships revers ing these seas, as it must be a great relief to the mariner to be certain of the •na-existence of this long-supposed and dangerous shoal, the Telemaque, examined as it bas bees by the Heron.
