and crew were in good health. -,Gapt.Grayson,
ofthe Marine Corps; J. M. Maury, captain
of the squadron, and Mr. Joseph, Barron, his

is with the deepest sorrow we arinoiince, that
eapt. Maury, who was a little indisposed at
the time of sailing, was taken very ill on the
3d day out, with a violent ‘fever, and there be-
ing no medical aid on board, the service was
deprived of one of its most valuable and ac-
complishcd officers, yesterday morning about

Navy Yard at the Island,-and was indisposed
at the time of her sailing, died on board at
