French has been rendered into the worst English,
by the official translator, from ignorance or de-

his expulsion, requised an apology. Our special
translation proves his ground Of complaint. The

the establishment Of a marine hospital, visited
without the Governor, that point. day or two
snce, in cornpopy with several invited guests

standing were associated with the party. Although
the law declares that this visit shall be made with
the view TO asceriain "if the promoniory known
o. Sandy Hook will be n proper and convenient
cite for the establishment at q marine hospital"
neither the physician q the marine hospital, nor
any other medical officer attached to n, was pre-
sent. Whether the absence Of these of ccrs-ihe
persons beet qualified TO a,tis, the authorities in
deciding the question Of the eligibility Of the pro.
posed si,e--was unavoidable, or whether they were
Intentionally left behind for fear that their views
might not coincide with those Of the land specu-
lating egitstors Of the island. We know not But
let the resuli Of the examination be what II may,
whether favorable or Otherwise, We hope that no
further STEPS will be taken until the meeting Of the
Legislature, which is now close at hand. The
matter ha. been neglected 40 long. that bu, little
CON be lost b. further delay of few weeks; and
we look upon the sacn6oe Of the interests Of the
State and OF the mercantile community, TO the
wishes Of few land holders on Staten Island--if
the report should be favorabl, 70 removal--to be
too important a matter TO be decided upon hastily
If The pr,sen, quarantine and lis hospitals do in
reality endsnRer the health Of the city. then let
them be removed TO come suitable place: but until
this question ~ satisfactorily decided by those
competent to Judge, we cannot consent that the
State and the people should sacrihce their valuable
property and cottly buildings, to benefit few
holders Of real estate, whose imaginary fears lead
them to exspeera,e the dangers to which they
pretend that they are exposed
