I think Barbossa is content with the Revenge and when saying "For the Pearl" he considers the matter of the Black Pearl to be done with.
 * Barbossa said "For the Pearl" simply for the moment of the death of the man who took the Pearl(and his leg) from him: Blackbeard...the way I see it, it has no more meaning than that. Then again, it could mean that he's done with the Pearl considering, as I said below, Barbossa doesn't seem to know the Pearls true fate(maybe making his saying the Pearl was "sunk, nonetheless" a bit accurate in his point of view). And given he doesn't know of the Pearls fate, he's likely to take the QAR as his own.

This brings up another point thouh of topic: Does the Sword of Trition work on any other ship or just the Revenge?
 * They didn't really blurt the answer out in any material, let alone show it onscreen. But from the look of what was presented "dialogue-wise", the Sword of Triton does work on other ships. As per Barbossa's quote during the Palm Tree Grove scene:
 * "The rigging had come to life! Our own ship turned against us! Tangling the crew, wrapping around them like snakes! And wrapping around my leg. But me arms were free and my sword was at hand. I am the master of my ship, not Blackbeard."
