few days since a list of the vessels and officers
belonging to the expedition for the survey Of
the North Pacific and China seas which is soon
to leave this port. This expedition is deserving
Of more than passing notice. and is by far the
most important affair of the kind that has ever
expedition made much more noise in the world,
cost more money in fitting out, and however
great the results, they will not compare with
those practical benefits which we may promise
ourselves on the return of the one now on the
point Of sailing.
This expedition has several objects in view.
one Of which is the opening Of road or high
way for our clippers bound from San Francisco
to China and back. The trade through this
channel is already very great, and in few
years will be immense and when the Pacific
Railroad shall be built this highway will be
pretty extensively travelled, as we may
imagine. From the Sandwich Islands west,
this region is almost unknown. The Ladrone
and Caroline islands, and those numerous ones
lying between these groups and JAPAN aud
which dot the ocean far to the eastward, all
require careful surveys. Shipmasters daily
report new discoveries Of unknown lands, and
the non-existence Of others laid down in the
charts. In this region the navigator sometimes
comes across inhabited islands, in which the
people express as much wonder at the sight of
white man as did the natives when Columbus
first set his foot on the shores of the West
Indies.
All this wants to be set straight and proper
charts published for the benefit Of the country.
The japanese islands require also to be newly
surveyed, and if Commodore Perry should sue
coed in his object of opening trade with these
rich countries the surveyor will follow closely
in his track. Again, the seas of Ochotsk. KANT
scbatka, Anadir, aud the Straits of Bhering-
the great resorts of our whalemen-require a
close scrutiny, and such harbors and places of
refreshment made known as may be the best
suited to the purposes of our adventurous
countrymen engaged in the whaling business.
The expedition carries out a scientific corps
which will incidentally, without interfering
with the main objects proposed pick up much
valuable information.
by looking at the list of officers it will be
perceived that although Commodore Stockton's
reform bill did no pass the government has
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1853-05-09

practically adopted the main features of it by
employing young and efficient men to conlact
the survey. The commodore is young com
mander, three young lieutenants command
vessels and the fourth is commanded by
passed midshipman or master, and the other Of
icers, denominated in the list acting lieute-
nants. are passed midshipmen.
Success to them we say, and to all expedi-
tons and adventures Of the kind.
THE TEHuANrEpEc QUESTION COMMODORE
PoRTER's GRANT.-To all parties interest
ed in the Tehuantepec question. whether in
connection with the Garay grant or the Sloo
grant the documents and vouchers which we
publish to day concerning the original grant to
Commodore Porter will be very interesting
1t is known that Mexico was largely indebted to
the services Of Commodore Porter, in command
Of her navy, for the success of her war OF in
dependence against the Spanish crown. Iii also
known that Mexico was immensely liberal in
her promises of compensation to the gallant
commodore in land and money; but we have
still to learn that either he or his heirs have
obtained as yet the first instalment principal or
interest of these generous dofations. And if it
be that the heirs of Commodore Porter have
neither compromised nor abandoned. nor for
feited his claim, then we see no reason why
it should not take the precedence of both the
Garay and the Sloo contracts. In any event,
these papers in reference to Commodore Por-
ters presumption rights will magnify the appa-
rent necessity for the settlement Of all these
conflicting claims to the Tehuantepec route
upon some original and comprehensive basis.
which while it shall secure to us and the world
all the required advantages of this isthmus por-
tage. will also do justice to all parties concern
ed. And such treaty will be difficult piece
of work.

invitation was accepted, but they had proceeded

did not desert him on this occasion; and instantly
