CAPTAIN ScorT AND THE FRENCH COMMANDER
day OF two ago we gave the account, as given
by NJ M Delacour, Captain Of the French war
steamer Tonnerre, in relation to his difficulty with
Captain Scott. Since then, we learn from the
latter, that the whole transaction is endeavored to
be placed in false light by the statement of the
vslorous M. M. Delacoar Our respected ship
master only hoised his coors on the express stpu-
lations that an apology should be made. in pre-
sence Of his crew, for the unbecoming language
used toward him and this was done. Az to ask.
ing pardon OF the gentlemanly Frcnchman, Capt.
Scott DID nothing OF the kind but once during
the conversation, in disputing some obse rvation
OF the French Captais, lie replied in the usual
form, Excuse me, sir, you are mistaken" ver-
ly, this NJ. VI. Drlacour has very bad memory,
or else a most plant conscience. Capt Scott has
for long time been in the employ Of the most re-
spectacle houses Of our city; and his pres mt EN-.
ployer, Mr.. Jonathan Thompson, has often en-
trusted him with letters Of credit to the amour, of
SOTO 5000 dollars The insinuation, therefore,
Of Monsieur Delacour, tina, he was either "blsck-
guard, ignorant, drunk, or crazy" it is almost un-
necessary TO say, is foolish one.

Mrsrss 90 RS curorslA Rssrptsf BY an

mtsrkt cf ms lIffok3IA keSibfrf. by an
order in another part Of our paper, will be per-
ceived that Col. stevenson's California regiment
will muster to morrow morning They proceed
i'm nediately t. Governors Island, where, after
remaining in camp for three weeks, they will sail
for the Pacific. intending to leave about the 10th
Of August.
The short space OF time in which this regiment
OF volunteers has been raised, is another exem-
pli6caion of the energy and enterprise Of the
American spirit. Sc freely month has elapsed
since il was first publicly understood thar the re-
giment was to be raised and yet, within that
time, nearly thousand men nave been enrolled;
and il has been necessary To deny great number
OF applications made since the regiment was
filed.
The character OF the officers and prvates COM
posing the expedition is one which will do honor
to our country, and sustain il wherever they 20.
Col. Stevenson has long been known in our COM
munity man of distinguished enterprise and
talent. His skill as an officer, and his determined
energy, united with remarkable suavity Of man.
ner, will render him highly respected by his SUBJ
ordinates. The Lieutenant Colonel Of the regi-
ment is Henry s. Burton, who has Tor many years
been an instructor in artillery at the West Point
Military Academy, one of the best soldiers in our
army and a gentleman in every sense of the word.
The Major is James Hardy, who has also been an
instructor at West foint, and an officer who en-.
joys the confidence and respect of all who know
him. The captains and lieutenants all men
of talent and enterprise; and none have received
commissions until their characters had been Sc
verely scrutnized. The privates are principally
respectable mechancs-young. enthusiastic, and
strong
Composed of such materials, there is no doubt
of the entire success of the expedition. The beau
tiful region of California, if that be made the set
Ting place, will grow up under the fostering care
of such men into a great and valuable State.
