I have the honor to report the arrival in Esquimalt Harbour, on
the 8th Instant, of the American Frigate "Pensacola," bearing
the Flag of Rear AdmiralThomasThomas Turner. The Admiral called on
me the day after his arrival, and he left Esquimalt yesterday to
visit the Ports on Puget Sound.

return here for a few days previous to her departure for San
Francisco.
