relation to the delay of the sailing of the

ter the resignation of the command BY
Commodore JONES, on account of his i'll
health, the command of the Expedition
was offered TO Captain KEARNEy, who
declined the command, in consequence
oil not being satisfied with the arrange
men.s proposed Cor it ; that it was then
offered to Captain PERRY, who from the
situation of bis private concerns, fel,
compelled to decline the command.
which, under other circumstances be
would gladly have accepted;and that Cap.
tainGREGoRYhas now been ordered to III g
command, and it is confidently hoped
that the squadron may sail in short time
upon the reduced scale recommended
by the late board Of Navy Officers.
Among the causes of the delay Of the
sailing Of the Expedition, it is stated
inat, subsequent to the arrival of the
squadron at New York, the seamen,
landsmen, and boys, received in whole
or in part, about the Ist Of November
last, bounty Of three months pay IA
