LIEUT. GREELY ON SHORE.

Portsmouth, Aug. 3. - Early this morning Mrs. Greely came over to the city from Admiral Wells' residence, and then took her two little daughters, who had remained during the night with their grandmother, at the Buckingham House, over to the admiral's to see their father.

Major Greely was overcome with emotion at the sight of his little ones.

At noon, Surgeons Guppell and Head visited the Constitution to examine into the physical condition of the survivors of the Greely expedition. General Hazen accompanied the surgeons and at the conclusion of the examination, the surgeons decided that the survivors were well enough to be transferred to the war department to be cared for as before.

Secretary Chandler directed the men to be turned over to Hazen, who, on the advice of the surgeons, directed that the survivors be kept at the navy yard for hospital treatment for ten days or a fortnight.

The survivors gently protested against this, saying they were entirely able to care for themselves, but Gen. Hazen firmly persisted in saying what the government was doing was for their own good.

The surgeons gave it as their opinion that Greely would require great care - his condition being rather unfavorable. Major Greely asked the surgeons to permit him to take quarters at the Buckingham house with his family, and a consultation took place as to the advisability of permitting him to do so. It is likely, however, that the surgeons will yield to Major Greely's wishes, but the surgeons will have Ames or some other surgeon from the fleet assigned to the duty of watching over him. He is not permitted to talk with visitors and reporters are not allowed to interview him.

The object of retaining the survivors so under military surveillance and care is that they may gradually have their muscles hardened and their strength made genuine, instead of fictitious, as the surgeons think it is apparent.

When the reporter asked the survivors if they believed other expeditions would be sent to the Arctic, one and all answered "Yes, and we are all ready to go with them and start to-morrow."
