lannon's ON THE PAcIy1c.--In a letter TO Assn
Whitley esq, from Captain Wilkes, who commanded
the Exploring Expedition, we find the following
statement
Every one is satisfied with the facilities the har-
bors on our Eastern seaboard offer for commerce.
However great they mny be- they do not exceed those
offered by the Straits Of Juan de Fuca, Admiralty
Inlet, and Pugefs Sound on the Western coast -
These am infinitely acquainted with, and they are
not surpassed by any, and large enough to accommo-
date the navies Of the world and fit rcceptaces for
the commerce of the East, which ! cannot doubt
will, one day, and not far distant flow into them"
If this statement be true-and we suppose Its nc
curacy Is unquestonable- why is il SO absolutely Inn
portant that we should insist upon obtaining Cafor
MIA, for the purpose of securing another port the
Pacifc? We inquire for information.

OUTRAGE UPON THE AMERICAN FLAa-We find
the following paragraph in the PASSPORT Sentinel Of
the oath
Our readers will recollect that stated time
ago our conviction that Her Majestys steam frigate
Columbia had impressed seaman from the brig
Brookline, Spates, owned by John w. Bass ESQ.,. Of
this port. Such indeed, proves TO be the fact. The
Brookline has returned from her voyage to the West
indies, and we have had q conversation with Capt.
Spates on the subject. His statement Is snbstan-
TALLY the same was made by us, founded upon
what he communicated to Capt. Winchester, OF the
Julia Ann, ut the time We learn that Mr.. Bass has
made representation to our Government and claims
redress and compensation for the interruption Of his
lawful business
