He has arrived kere, and will submit an extended report of his dis- coveries to the Government within & few days. His party consisted of eleven men beside hii setf, and all the of the expedition, including the cost of boats, conveyances, in- struments, provisions, and other necessary articles of outfit were borne by himself, and the undertaking was purely of 8 private char- acter without fia from the Government, or from any State, or aseociation.
