As some misunderstanding exists on tho subject, and unfounded complaints have been made in consequence, we are requested by Capt. Turnl)ull, harbor master, to state that tho code of "s'gnMs at work nt the Grey is in all respects as complete as those used in Hokitika. The ketch, John Mitchel, left Sydney heads on the 1 7th ult. The first threo days after leaving the land, strong easterly gales and a heavy sea prevailed, the little vessel being frequently under wafer.
