Another of the Transports is arrived at the Hook, which is nearly all that was expected. The Pilot tells me that there is a general dissatisfaction among the troops, who thought they were to lay here in peace. One of the ships made Long-Island, sent a boat, a Subaltern, two privates and two seamen on shore, to know where they were, but they did not think proper to return to the ship.
