SEARCHIN4 FOR THE BURIED TREA-
SURES OF THE SEA.

At a meeting in this city, on Wednesday, of the
stockholders of the Boston Relief and Submarine Com-
pact), an interesting report was made by the directors, of
the result of two expeditions of the company to recover
treasures buried in the sea One of these expeditions
was to raise the vessels and other materials sunk by the
Ruemiana in the harbour of Sebastopol. In this expedi-
tion as yet only a partial success has been obtained. The
two vessels of the expedition are, however, to be em-
ployed the coming season in operating upon vessels in
Turkish watt.rs. The other expedition has been sent to
the Caribbean sea, under the command of Captain
Couthouy. After various misadventures, the whole of
the crew being at tacked with yellow fever at St. Thomas,
from which they all fortune, ely recovered, at length the
Bay of Cumana, in Venezuela, was reached, where work
was at once commenced upon the-sunken Spanish fri-
gate San Pedro, and it has been continued steadily ever
since. The several divers connected with Captain Cout-
heuy's force spent in the aggregate about eight hours
and a half under water daily during the time they had
been at work upon the wreck. After removing a vast
amount of deck material the divers penetrated into the
deck room, where they found gun carriages, furniture, &e.
piled up in one large mass, making any attempt at work
useless without first removing it. At this place four mag-
nificent brass cannons were taken out and 1] boxes, sup-
posed to be cast-steel ; they were of the size of a candle
box, but were thought by some to be platina. Silver
dollars were also found in the depth of sixty feet in the
water, covered with mud, but they were mostly separate.
Several gold watches were here taken out and many
other valuable articles, and the divers came to the con-
clusion that when the explosion of the vessel took plane
these articles were driven from the forward part of the
ship where the bulk of the treasure undoubtedly re-
mained. Taking this as a reasonable view of the case,
they proceeded to their work with renewed vigour, and
after great difficulty succeeded in clearing away the
large amount of rubbish, and obtained an entrance to
the hold of the forward part of the ship on the 12th of
December last. About $7OO in specie and another bran
six-pounder were taken out at this place in a short time,
also watches and many curious relics. The m ,ney
found here was cemented together in rolls of $l5, [s2o,
and $lOO each, and very plainly showed that they must
be very near the vast amount of money contained in
this ship. According to the official documents, when
the San Pedro went down she contained one million
Spanish dollars, and a million and half of gold, a large
portion of whichl should be there still. The work was
now fairly commenced, and the directors felt greatly
encouraged, and saw no reason why the stockholders
should not be so. The last advices, which were up to
January 1, represented that they had been unexpectedly
stopped in their labours by timber, &c., in the hold,
but hoped in a short time to remove it. In the mean-
time, Captain Corthouy had been to the capital to obtain
license for his divers to dive for pearls at the Pearl Bank.
