The Herald says the exact purport of the dis
patches could not be ascertained, but from
what information her officers had learned at
Bermuda, il was pretty certain that they
would prove to be of satisfactory character
to our government. Sir Houstin Stewart had
expressed his disapprobation of the extent to
which the boarding of American vessels had
been carried by the officers attached to his
squadron, in the Gulf. No special orders for
the searching of all vessels found in the laii-
tude indicated, had been issurd The instruc-
tons extend no further than the oyerhauling
OF vessels of so very suspicious character as
to warrant ii. The Admiral, it appears, had
anticipated the news of the offensive vista
tions and at once took peremptory and efficient
means to have them checked. We learn fur
ther from source entitled to credit, that the
dispatches contained the assurance that every
step has been taken by Admiral Stewart TO
prevent any recurrence Of the visits and
searches, which have been so offensive to the
American public and that the particular acts
in question are condemned, or that they are
ascribed to excessive zeal and energy, in the
search for slaves.
