Extracts from the Rough Journal of Commodore
Perry
The BONN Islands extend in a direction nearly
north and south, between the ATTITUDES of 26 deg.
30 min. and q deg. As min north--the centre line
ofthe group being in longitude about 142 deg. Is
min. east.
The islands are evidently volcanic, the internal
fires being still at work. as Mr. Savory, the Oldest
surviving settler on the island, informed me that
they experienced two or three tremblings of the
earth every year.
The islands, headlands, and detached rocks pre-
sent the most grotesque forms, exhibiting the APP
pearance of castles, towers animals and almost
every hideous thing conceivable to the imagi-
nation.
know Of no part of the world which can offer
greater interest TO the researches of the geologist
than these islands present.
Port Lloyd is situated on the western side, and
nearIy in the centre Of Peel Island. II is easy of
inCress and cgress, and may be considered safe
and commodious harbor, though Of deep anchor
age, ships usually anchoring in from Is TO %
fathoms.
The safest anchorage is to be found as high up
the harbor as ship can conveniently go, having
regard TO depth and room for swinging and veer-
ing cable. Strangers can easily discover by ex-
animation the proper position TO which they can
warp their ships.
Wood and water can be obtained in abundance.
The water is obtained from running streams, and
is of good quality.
the other islands being uninhabited--rase cou-
siderable quantities of sweet potatoes Indian
corn, onions, taro, and few fruits, the most
abundant Of which are watermeons, bananas and
pine apples; a few pigs and some poultry are also
raised. For these they find ready sale TO the whale
ships constantly touching at the port for water
and other supplies. During the four days we
were at anchor at Port Lloyd, three whalemen,
two American and one English communicated by
means Of their boats with the settlements, and
carried away many supplies, procured generally
in exchange for articles, of which ardent spirits
are the most acceptable TO many Of the settlers.
Were il not for the scarcity of working hands a
much greater extend Of land would be cultivated.
At present there cannot be more than one hun
dred and fifty acres under cultivation in the whole
island, and this in detached spots, generally ut the
seaward termination of ravines furnishing fresh
water, or upon plateaus Of land near the harbor
The soil Is Of excellent quality for cultivation,
very much resembling that of Madeira and the Ca
nary islands uhe latter being in the same parallel OF
latitude,) and consequently is admirably adapted
TO tho cultivation of the vine, and of wheat tobac-
90, sugsr-cane, and many other valuable plants.

Political News.
The eastern question still continues in an un-
settled condition. II is now asserted upon the
best information, that the Sultan has signed the
declaration of war, and gives Russia fifteen days
10 evacuate the principalities The placards, de-
claring war were said to have been posted about
the streets, and that the people were much ex-
cited. There are, however, doubts In regard to
the terms of the umored war declaration. Many
Poles, Hungarians, and others, were enisting in
the Turkish army.
II is further stated that the Emperor Nicholas is
disposed 10 make peace upon fair terms-that he
does not desire war.
Accounts from France state that the emperor
has decidedly sgni6ed his determination to aid
Turkey in case Of war with Russia. The French
and English fleets were still in the Dardanelles,
and had been invited TO Constantinople Letters
from Constantinople are somewhat belligerent,
but not decided.
II is further stated that the opinion very gener-
ally prevailed in Paris and London, amongst the
best informed, that the eastern question would yet
be amicably adjusted, and shrewd merchants were
operating upon that conviction.
England and France quiet
