uns Je.nuesss or T.r Her Cruise.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 9.-Ths
Jeaunette cleared port yesterday
afternoon and set off on her voyage
Of discovery in Polar seas. Her
route will be as follows: From
San Francisco she Will shape her
course northwest for the Aleutian
Islands, a distance of 2,100 miles,
To Ounalaska harbor, situated on
the north side of Ounalaska Island.
She will pass through Unalga pass
from the Pacific ocean into Beh-
ring's sea. The prevailing winds
are usually westerly, but after
reaching about 80 deg. north lati-
tude, calms and fogs prevail. From
Ounalaska, after having cOaled
ship, she will proceed to st. Pau's
leland, 240 miles distant. AT st.
Paups is a trading post of the
Alaska Commercial Company, and
l. 81, xxrtl
ply of sealskin clothing
for the crew, presented by
the Alaska company. From thence
she will sail for st. Michaels, near
the mouth of the Yukon river, a
distance of 500 miles from st.
Panl's, where dogs, sledges, snow
shoes. fu; clothing and few ma
lives will be taken on board. From
st. Mlchael's she will proceed to st.
Lawrence Bay, on the coast of
Asia, u distance of $50 miles, for
the purpose of obtaining news of
Prof. Nordenskjold's expedition, as
we'll as to procure additional fur
clothing and supplies. From st.
Lawrence Bay the Jeanette will
pass directly through Behring's
Straits into the Arctic Ocean, shap-
ing her course along the shore of
Wrangel's or Killttps Land. From
hat time forward the real business
Of the expedition will commence,
and the course they will pursue
depends largely on circumstances
and the wisdom of the commander.
The start of the Jeannette has been
delayed at least month beyond
the time originally fixed for start
ing. This delay appears to have
cen unavoidable. The Navy De-
artment originally undertook to
send man-0f-war TO convoy the
expedition as far as Behring's
Straits, but the breaking out of the
war between Bolivia and Chile rem
dered it necessary to increase our
force in the south Pacific, and the
Department., when the time came,
claimed that they had not o vessel
available for conveying the jean
nette. After waiting until further
delay would prove hazardous to the
expedition, Captain De Long, on
Friday last, chartered the Fanny A.
Hyde, and now goes forth entirely
independent of the Government.
rhe wheat Market.
New YORK. July Sth. During
the furry in breadstuff's yesterday
in the Produce Exchange a bid by
two exporters for one million BUSH
els at ST. 10 was made, but the
speculative clique was unwilling to
sell so large quantity at less than
ST. IL. One operator said If the un-
favorable reports continue, wheat
would be cheap at ST 25, at which
price the bulk of the European de-
mand would be filled.
The steamer England, National
Line, which leaves here to-day
for Liverpool, takes out 100000
bushels of wheat, probably the
largest single shipment of wheat
this season. 1t is said to be a part
Iof recently heavy purchases from
parties controlling No. 2 Spring.
