EXPLORING EXPEDITION.

In the Gazette Of the ID, we published letter
from Lieutenant in the Navy, giving an account
of the discovery Of Continent in high Southern la
titodes, by the French Exploring Expedition. This
was called Adihe in honor of the Queen Of France
By letters which have been received at New York
from our Exploring Expedition, we learn that dis
covery of the Same Antarctic Continent was made
by the vessels under the command of Lieutenant
WILKES, on the 3lst of January last From other
quarters, we understand that the French Exploring
Expedition made land on the 18th of the same
month-and consequently is entitled to the honors
resulting from precedence. If the Expedition had
been fitted out long ago. as it ought 10 have been
the honor of discovering this continent would not
have been snaIched from our by the enterprise
OF another people.
Immediately after the cry Of land !" and
while the hands getting the boats ready to land
on the 3lst, the wind veered round and blew so vi
olently, that the chips had pu, out and they beat
among the icebergs for two days. On the 2ed Of
February the ships made land again, and be At do wn
the coast for 80 or 40 miles but we're unable TO
land, The Expedition made land again on the l0th |;
and eleven days after took lis departure for the
North In one of the lettars i. the following :" Il
is unnecessary for describe what we have sui.
tered in this part Of our voyage-cold. hunger, and
thirst, and plenty of them all. This discovery will
