I hereby beg to inform you of my arrival at Panama on my way to
Vancouvers Island, on the 28th of November; I have as yet heard nothing from Admiral Hornby, relative to my further passage, nor have I had any opportunity of communicating with him, by the Lima Mail Packet,
which sails tomorrow, I intend to forward to the Admiral a copy of the
dispatch dated the 9th August, relating thereto with a copy of which
I was furnished by the Admiralty previous to leaving England,
