CAPTURE OF BASSEIN. (From the London Gazette of last Evening.) ADMIRALTY, And. 6, 1852. Dispatches have been received at this office, from Com modore Lambert, of . her Majesty's ship Fox, of which the Solloviing are copies : OPERATIONS IN BURMAH. No. 27. Fox, at Rangoon, May 11, 1852. Sir,—l have the honour to request you may be pleased to inform the Lords of the Admiralty that, on the 2d instant, I dispatched the Honourable East India Company's steamer Phlegethon, commanded by Mr. G. T. Niblett, and the barge of her Majesty's ship Fox, in charge of Acting Lieutenant John R. Lawrence, to the great entrance of the Irrawaddy, to try and effect a pas sage through the Panlang branch. 2. On the morning of the 11th the barge returned; and Mr. Lawrence reported that they had advanced as far as Yangernsiah, where the water shoaled so consider ably that the Phlegethon could not cross into the Pan kng branch; the barge, however, was enabled to do so, and proceeded down into the Rangoon river, in order that I might be acquainted with the result, and the cause of the steamer's long absence. It is with much satisfaction I learn that the object of the exp2dition has been accomplished. 3. I have further to request you miy be pleased to in form their Lordships that, on the Phlegethon and the Fox's barge arriving off Yaagernsiah, they discovered the Governor at Dalla, retreating with eight armed boats; abase was immediately given, and on coming up with them the enemy ran on shore, leaving their boats, in one of which was the Governor's wife, with her atten dants; they also abandoned a quantity of treasure, and most of their arms. The treasure captured amounted to eleven thousand rupees; the arms, which consisted of muskets and swords, were destroyed; and the boats, with the women, wer e allowed to proeeed.—l have, &c., GEORGE LANRERT. A. Stafford, Esq., MX, &c. CAPTURE OF THE CITY OF BASSEIN. No. 28. Her Majesty's Ship Fox's Boat, a t B assein) May 20, 1852. sir,—l request you may be pleased to inform the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty that the Lieute nant... General commanding the forces in Burmah, having communicated his wish to make an attack on the city of Bassein, I placed a squadron of four, steamers at his disposal for the service. 2. On the morning of the 17th instant, Lieutenant- General Godwin, C. 8., the Commander of the Forces, embarked in a squadron with four hundred of her Ma jesty's 51st Regiment, three hundred of the 9th Regiment Madras Native Infantry, sixty Sappers and Miners, the Royal Marines, and a detachment of seamen, with a field gun from her Majesty's ship Fox. 3. I left the naval force at Rangoon in charge of Com mander Tarleton, with the Fox, and went with my boat to the Tenasserim, in which steamer I hoist ed my broad pendant, and put to sea at two o'clock in the afternoon with the steamers named in the enclosure marked A, The Lieutenant-General accompanied me in the Tenas serim. of Negrais at the enytt:ana_cse.haeo;f sstemhneatllßhearsseoinn River, where the P luto j oined us. T 4. On the evening of the ISth we a nc h ored off the island a from Rangoon a day _Pre e `neesi p p with the s t eam power n could not have enabl ed h r to kee frigates. 5. At daylight on the 19th the squadr on we i g h e d , a nd proceeded np the river; the Pluto, from her light draught, being ahead, showing the soundings. The T enasse rim led, follow e d b y the Sesostris and Mozuffer at half a cable's length distant. 6. At a few minutes after four o'clock nom , the fortifications of Bassein in the after no, appeared in sight, consisting of a very extensive mud fort and a long line of stockade, on the left bank, on which the city stands, and a strong stockade round the,Paeoda with a brick parapet fro n ti ng the river. Then, in an admirable posi tion on the right bank, stood a very large stockade, mounting several cannon. males The te enemy d permitted the squa d ron to approac h tin 7. At half -past four, when abreast the stockades, I made the signal to anchor; immediately afterwards Lieutenant-General Godwin expressed his wish to land the troops, which was effected in perfect order in a very short period. They had scarcely formed under the Lieutenant-General's directions, when a heavy fire was opened both with cannon end musketry from the yeti- Oat stockades, which was instantly answered by a cheer from the party landed, who stormed and carried the Pagoda. A; soon as the enemy commenced firing, the ships opened their fire on the different batteries. Observing the stockade opposite the town had been silenced, I directed Commander Campbell, of the Seses tris, to land with the boats of his own ship, and the Mo zufler's, and to storm it, which he effected in gallant style, driving the Burmese from their guns, with consi derable toss to them in killed and wounded. Commander Campbell has called my special attenti en to the zeal and activity displayed on this occasion by Lieu tenants Robinson and Lewis, of the Indian Navy. At half-past five I h a d th e sat i s f act i on of hearing that the last and most formidable of the stockades had been carried ; but not without considerable loss on our part from the great resistance shown by the enemy. Amongst those I have to enumerate as sufferers on this occasion, I have to name Lieutenant George W. Rice, of her Majesty's ship rex, who received a severe and painful wound through the right hand, whilst gallantly leading his party of seamen into the stockade: and as this officer has been specially named by the Commander-in-Chief at the tekieg of Rangoon, I beg to recommend him most strongly to their Lordships' eotesideration for promotion. Ifeei it my duty, also, to mention the steady conduct of ile 124,1 Marine.: under the command of First Lieu tenant John Ediott; and I cannot conclude without ex pressing my tent thenke to Commanders Campbell end Hewett, of the Indian Navy, for the skill and ability with which they brought their ships up a river, which has hitherto been but imperfectly surveyed for a distance of more than sixty miles. Nor can I refrain from ex pressing how much I am indebted to Commanders Dicey and Burbank, of the Bengal Marine, for the assistance I received from them; wen, I attribute oar being able to perform this service without accident, to the careful and judicious manner with which the commander of tho Plato went in advance and comiannicated the soundings. My thanks are general to the officers and men who served under my' orders on this occasion for the steady, gallant, and cheerful conduct with which they performed the duty, neither can I omit remarkin g that the most perfect unanimity prevailed between the two services. 8. Since my last visit to Negrais, the .old Governor of Bazein has been removed, and the Gover nment en trusted to another officer, who arrived here from Ava , with tour thousand regular troops, which increased t he strength of the garrison t o six thousan d 9. I have the hono ur to forward her m ew el it . h a list of killed and wouadaezd_oui n nte th l e to s t !oadron. The casualties onaurdepeimen killed among the troo ps °facer; and seventeen men w and five I also enclose a return of' th'eLnumber of cannon captured from the enemy. 10. And .

Her Majesty's Ship Fox's Boat, Bassein, 21st May, 1852. Sir,—Referring to my dispatch, No. 28, of yesterday's date, I request you will inform their Lordships that after we had obtained possession of Bassein, I sent the Pluto a short distance up the river to endeavour to inter cept the retreating army. She returned this morning, and Com. Burbank acquaints me that he proceeded up the river above Bassein, about forty miles, that he com municated with the village of Mammoon, from which the inhabitants came off; and who informed him that one of the party then on board was a person in high com mand at Bassein during the attack, that he then arrested this person, and he has delivered him over to me, to gether with another officer of high rank. Commander Burbank having been informed that a party of the retreating force, in two boats, had that night left the village, he proceeded in chase, and succeeded in capturing one of the boats, in which ho found a quantity of arms and ammunition, which he destroyed; the troops landed, and fled into the jungle. The Pluto after wards fell in with another portion of the defeated Burmese, encamped, but who fled on being observed, leaving their arms, all which have been de stroyed, as well as their barracks. The party of seamen from the Fox embarked in the Pluto to assist in these operations, under Mr. Lisboa, Midshipman. The Proserpine steam-vessel having joined me from Moulmein, I dispatched her with the Fox's marines to destroy some unoccupied stockades in the neighbourhood of the village of Naputa, which was accomplished with out any opposition, assisted by the villagers. The Lieutenant-General intends leaving two hundred men of her Majesty's 51st, and three hundred of the 9th Regiment of Madras Native Infantry, to garrison Bassein, to which I have added the Sesostris steam frigate. The remainder of the troops embarked to day, and to-morrow the squadron will return to Ran goon.—l have, Sze., (Signed) GEORGE R. LA3IBERT. OPERATIONS IN THE IRRAWADY. No. 31. Fox, at Rangoon, May 24, 1852. Sir,—ln continuance of my letter, No. 27, I have the honour to request you will inform their Lordships that the Phlegethon returned here to-day, having made a most successful expediti on i n con j unct i on w i th the barge of this ship, in ch arge of Acting Lieutenant Lawrence, which I had dispatched to join him on the 11th instant. While Commodore Niblett was waiting for sufficient water to get int o R angoon Ri ver, I directed him to re connoitre Donabew; he accordingly proceeded to that place, and found that the Governor of Dallah had fled, and that this once famous stronghold was unoccupied and defenceless. The inhabitants seemed desirous of affording every assistance, and informed him that a con siderable force was collected further up the river, to which spot he also proceeded; and, at aboat 10 miles above Donabew, near the tower of S a gadj ee , h e f e ll in with them. The Phlegethon opened fire upon this force, consisting of about 5,000 men, which retreated and fell back upon Sarawah, a town 30 miles higher up the river. He af terwards ascertained that a portion of them crossed over to Hewsada, at the junction of the Bassein river. Commander Niblett informs me that, wherever the Phlegethon made her appearance, he was received by the natives with every demonstration of friendship; and an anxiety for him to remain and afford them protection from the marauders and Burmese troops.—l have, &c.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 11 from 40s to 81s for ord to good; 10 cases Cochin at 32s to 32s 6d per cwt. for ordinary. SPIRITS -Few buyers of Demerara Rum are to' be met with, although 33 to 40 per cent overproof is being offered at 2s to 2s Id per gallon, and 28 to 32 over at is 10d to Is lid per gallon. In Leeward Island sales have been immaterial, and is 5d to is hid is now the value of proof; but supply is not more plentiful. East India has been operated in with caution, and is 4d is the quotation for fair quality. There is no general decline for Jamaica; still exporters and home dealers are reluctant to make purchases, and supply is plentiful. Superior marks 35 to 38 per cent over proof can be obtained at 3s 4d to 33 10d, fine 2s 9d to 3s 3d, good mid to good 32 to 35 over 2s 3d to 2s Bd, mid 30 to 32 over 2s to 2s 2d, and low 26 to 28 over is 10d to Is Ild per gallon. The value of Havannah is ls 3d to is 3d proof. In the B r iti s h ma d e S p i r i t tra d e t h ere i s not much act i v ity, still rates are not lower, ruling at 9s 7d to 9s 8d cash; Gin 812 d to 8s 3d for 22 under, and 17 ditto 8s 8d to 8s 9d. Geneva met with more attention at is 8d to Is 9d, and fine ditto at 2s to 2s 3d per gallon. To day a large business was concluded in Brandy at improved prices; sales made at 4s 7d to 4s 9d for Cognac best brands of the vintage of 1851. INpino.-Al t h ough there are few buyers of East In dia for the home or f ore i gn mar k ets, yet holders are firm, and will not sell under last quarterly sale's terms. Since that time operations h ave not excee d e d 800 c h ests. Spanish is held with firmness, and there are several buyers of ord sorts; at present goad or fine are meeting with little attention. CoCSINEAL.-This afternoon Cochineal met with little attention, and rather lower rates were accepted. At auction 220 bp were sold; Honduras silvers, good ord to good 4s to 4s 2d Mexican 3s 10d to 3s I Id, and black 4s 2d to 4s 6d, FRUIT.- - Currants continue to be much in demand, and there is a further advance, sales having been made at 47s to 53s per cwt. Accounts are still very un favourable regarding the crop. Of Raisins many par cels have been sold at 33s to 34s for Valencia, and Denis 24s to 26s per cwt. SALTPETRE.-No further decline has taken place, but privately operations have been small for all purposes. Of 1,700 bags Calcutta at auction were sold, refraction fi ß r ri ti e s r, h g Refined una is held 29s 6d to 30 s . I n Nitrate of Soda 41 to 5i p er cent at 28s to 28s 6d, 71 ditto 275, and 12 4 ditto 2 5s per c wt . Th e va l ue of Madras is 23s to 265. p urc hases are upon a sma ll sca l e , an d 14 s 6d i s th e ruling general quotation. ()Lbs.-P a l m i s i n much b etter request, and prices are m e2t7sth6edre is n t 029 50 and Ceyl on are held for 31s to 34s 6d, and other sorts 28s to 301. I n Gi nge ll y or Ground N ut sa l es h ave b een trifling at 311 10 a to 311 15s per tan. per further decline; Cocoa C N o a c t h iis Cochin little required, y et TALLow.-.A. reluctance has been evinced to operate in Russian on t h e spot during the last few days, an d prices have slightly given way. There are sellers of fine yell ow C andle at 38s 3d per cwt. Operations are rather important for delivery, still purchases can be made at 38s 6d for the last three months of the year. Home melted is in good demand, at 37s to 37s 6cl cash; there are, however, sellers. Other sorts of Tallow have sold rather freely, and a small advance. At auction 490 casks Australian were nearly all dis posed of; mutton at 34s 6d to 38s 3d, beef 32s to 37s 6d for low to fine; 350 casks South American 35s to 38s 3d per cwt. Far auction 600 packages Tallow are declared. PROVISIONs.-A good sale has b een ex p er i ence d f or Irish Batter, and there is a firm market. Sales of Carlow, Clonmel, and Kilkenny were at 76s to 795, Cork 73s to 755, Limerick 67s to 70s, Waterford 70s to 72a, Sligo and Tralee 66s to 68s per cwt. Dutch has been in large demand, and the rise continues, supply being limited at present. Friezland, fine has been selling at 88 s to 90s, surplus and seconds 66s to 80s, Hempen and Zwolle fine 78s to 82s, Groningen 62s to 68s, Leer 68s to 725, Holstein and Kiel 76s to 86s. English is plentiful, and met with a slow sale at 66s to 90s, and Fresh 8s to lOs per dczen pounds. Bacon is offered at lower prices, still dealers have operated with reluctance, and there is a fair supply. Irish sizeable is 623 to 68s, heavy 59a to 655, and Hamburgh sizeable 62s to 68s per cwt. There are now few buyers of bales or tierce middles, with sellers at 54s to 603. Lard continues to be much wanted, and there is a further rise, Irish bladdered selling at 62s to 665, keg and firkin 54s to 58s, Hamburgh bladdered 603 to 645, and keg 54s to 575. For hams the market . has become quiet, and prices have given way, Irish selling at 66s to 745, and English 74s to 78s. N av y Provisions have been operated in w ith r e lucta nce . There are sellers of Beef-American India 71 to 71 10s per trc, prime mess 5/ 10s to Si 15s, Irish India 6/ 10 3 to 71 trc, prime 100 s to 130 s, Pork 415 s to 41 103 per barrel, and India 71 lOs to 81 per trc. In Cheese operations are on a larger scale-Edam at 32s to 41s, Gouda 29s to 3 75, Kanter 17s to Ils 6d, and American 32s to 40s per cwt. FRANCE.

The spiral has nearly Place Vendome, fram the base to the summit, and the skeleton fabric which is to figure forth the great St. Bernard already rises over the Pont de la Concorde. The pedestal, with eagles and statues, and its has relief, already covers the rand-point midway from the Champs Elysees to the triumphal arch. The character of these ornaments, even in their present incomplete form, is eminently Imperial. The tradesmen of the Presidential household are not backward in im parting the same tone to the decorations they affix over their doors and shop windows. One in parti cular is evidently anxious for the time when the needle shall be plied for an Imperial cus tomer. At the great tailoring establish ment on the Italian Boulevards, at the corner of the rue Lepelletier, may even now be seen the Imperial arms in plaster of Paris ; the eagle issuing from the centre, and grasping in his claw the star the Legion of H onour ; and the s hi e ld , en circled of le by the collar of the Order, reposes on the Im perial a thickly nl m studde d perilmperial cr o w w i n t h . bees ; the whole ago, Colonel Guimard, condemned by the High Court for the part he took in the plot of June 13, 1849, .was pardoned and liberated from prison.

More than twenty steamers now ply daily in the Bosphorus and the Sea of Marmora. It is said that a Russian company is about to be formed, which will have twenty vessels to run in opposition to those now established. On the 19th ult., at four in the afternoon, a terrible hurricane burst over Ibraila, in Wallachia. It only lasted half-an-hour, but did great damage. The losses along the Danube are immense. Several ves sels have gone down, and a number of persons have been drowned. Every vessel at Ibraila suffered more or less. In the country districts, for a radius of ten miles, not a grain of wheat, maize, or barley remains, all hare been destroyed. CAPTURE OF JOHNNY BROOME. (From a Second Edition of the Sussex Advertiser.) TUESDAY MORNING, EIGHT O'CLOCK. By a special dispatch from Brussels, dated the Bth inst., received at this office at the above hour, we learn that those active and vigilant officers, Messrs. Morten and Dadson, of Tunbridge Wells, have, after consider able difficulty, succeeded in capturing John Broome, who, it will be remembered, absconded from his bail at our assizes. It appears that on the discovery that Broome had " bolted " from Lewes, a telegraphic com munication was dispatched to Superintendent Morten at Tunbridge Wells, who immediately gave chase. His efforts were, however, unsuccessful ; but steps having been taken to " blockade the ports" on this coast, it was suspected that Johnny was still lying perdue in England. From information which Morten received last week from the Chief Commissary of Police in Belgium, with whom he had placed himself in communication, he proceeded to Lon don on Thursday last, whence having procured a letter of introduction to her Majesty's Belgian Consul, and fortified with a judge's warrant, he proceeded forthwith to Ostend. It seems Broome bad been recog nised by the Belgian police, and, although at large, was under close but unsuspected surveillance. From Ostend Messrs. Morten and Dadson went forward to Brussels, where they apprehended him while he was sitting at dinner in that town, and he is now lodged in prison. Broome has employed a solicitor, and pro tests against being conveyed to England. He declares that foreign air is " so beneficial to his health" that he will not return to this country. The Chief Officer of Police at Brussels, however, says that he will be given up. The parties were to have an interview with the British Consul yesterday. Messrs. Morten and Dadson fully anticipated reaching England with their protege this day. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. John Thomas Parry, the printer who was charged at this court on Monday with attempting to commit suicide, was brought up yesterday before Alderman u the i r o e n l i t e o v e i x n p g l a o i ffi n officer y a t n h d ey o v r e e r f s u e s e e r d o t f o t r h Cubitt, havin g b een reman d e d f or the attendance of e e i e W v e e t s ht eLondon of the prisoner. Mr. Chamberlain, the relieving officer, appeared, and stated that the prisoner's wife called on him on Saturday afternoon, about four o'clock, but having visited No. 2, Holborn-buildings, the house in which she was living, on the Wednesday, Thursday, and Fri day previous, and not seeing any signs of the destitu tion and distress complained of by the prisoner and his wife, nor of the eight young children, he was in duced to doubt the truth of the wife's statement, and therefore told her to send her husband. Soon after she left the office he went to 2, Holborn-building s , again, for the purpose of satisfying himself of their distressed state, and relieving them ; but he found no one in the rooms generally occupied by the prisoner's family, and on proceeding upstairs he only saw several of the other lodgers lying about in a beastly state of intoxication. If he had found the wife's circum stances in accordance with her statements, he would have taken the whole family into the union at once. The wife assured the Alderman that the statement was correct as to the destitute condition of the family, and added that she had lived five years in the same house, but was out when Mr. Chamberlain called. Alderman CUBITT asked the prisoner for whom he had worked ? The prisoner said he was working latterly for Messrs. Woodfall, but that he only earned 2s. 6d. during the whole of last week. Alderman CUBITT regretted that the prisoner should have been placed in such a position ; however, some very humane individual, under the name of "Type," had forwarded ss. for his (the prisoner's) use. The money was then given to the wife, who ap peared very thankful for the trifling assistance, and the prisoner was then discharged. Mr. Chamberlain said he would immediately attend to the wants of the family. In the course of the afternoon Mr. Chamberlain again attended and said, that since he left the court in the morning, he had visited the prisoner's lodgings, and instead of eight children being at home and with out bread, he found only four, besides two who were earning 33. per week each. He had also ascertained that the prisoner was an idle, drunken, profligate character, and able to earn 21. per week, but when he did so be never brought home more than about 12s. per week to his wife, who, at the time she ap plied for relief, he (Mr. Chamberlain) thought was partially intoxicated, and who, he had since ascer tained, bad really been drinking. Jane Moriat, who had lived 11 years in the house adjoining, confirmed all that Mr. Chamberlain had stated, and also said that the prisoner had plenty of work if he would only attend to it - . Alderman CUBITT said, be was convinced Mr. Chamberlain had done his duty, and his explanation had removed any reproach that might have been at tached to him in the first instance through an erro neous statement. After the Alderman had left the bench, a letter was received containing a donation of 51., from " E. H.," to be applied for the benefit of the prisoner and his family ; and, if found not deserving, to be appro priated to any other charitable use the Alderman might think fit. Two young men, printers, called at the court to inquire if the prisoner was a de serving object, as they were getting up a subscription in their office for him ; but, on being informed of what had transpired, they expressed an intention to assist the wife and children, but not to allow any money to pass through the prisoner's hands. With regard to the 53. from " Type," an acknowledgment was requested in the papers. HUSH EVIDENCE. On the inquest at Six-mile-bridge, one of the wit nesses, John German, displayed a fair sample of the ec centricity and shrewdness so frequently displayed by Hibernians, when on the table of Themis. The follow.. ing is the report of his cross-examination Cross.examined by Mr. Graydon—l hold under Sir Lucius O'Brien—long life to his honour—and I have my receipts in my pocket--that's the chat—(Laughter) —I couldn't tell how many people were in the lane, but, Mr. Graydon—Hold your tongue, sir. Witness—Sure 'cis you that's making me speak. Mr. Graydon—Tell me, sir, how many people were there ?—No answer. Mr. Graydon—Come, sir, answer the question. Witness—l don't know bow to answer your honour, for fear of disobliging you.—(Laughter.) The people in the garden were all standing up like fools, and God knows I was the chief fool amongst them, for the cross woman I have desired me to stay in bed that morning. and if I did I would not see this,—(Loud laughter.) Mr. Graydon—ls your wife a young woman ? Wit. hess—She was once young.—(Laughter.) Cross-examination continued—l cannot tell how many persons were there, for it was not them I was minding. I cannot say whether, there were five or five hundred, for I was dazzled. I went near enough not to be there at all when the ball passed my two poor shins. Mr. Graydon—Now this is too bad—answer, sir. Witness—'Tis happy for the woman that owns you. You're a pleasant man, God bless you.—(Laughter.) Mr. Graydon—Did you see any women there? Wit ness—Arrah, man, how could I notice them when I was not on the wall while you'd be taking a dust of snuff, if you take any. Mr. Graydon—What were you doing while on the wall? Witness—Looking at the muzzles of the guns, for they had bayonets screwed on, and I was afraid I'd get a prod. Mr. Graydon—How many men were in front of the soldiers? Witness—l hadn't time, man, to do what you are asking me. Mr. Graydon—Were there men there at all? Wit nes—lt there were, they were in a bad place, that's all I know. I wouldn't notice a woolpack there, I was so frightened. To the Coroner—There was not an " item" to pre vent two children passing through the lane; and as I'm Mr. Graydon—Hold your tongue, sir. Witness—l wish to God you'd tell me to hold my tongue entirely.—(Laughter.) To Mr. Graydon—l saw no stones thrown in the lane that day, and didn't see any soldiers struck. I did not see any of the voters at all, for they were at the back. The way I'd be on the safe side, I should say there were from eight to twelve shots in the lane, and three or four afterwards. Mr. Graydon—Aud you h a ve said that everything was quiet befere this time? Witness—As quiet as a lamb. was; come, new. Mr. Graydon—You swear that? Witness—God help and you not knowing whether he ate his breakfast or not.—(Laughter.) puos,orw,h,astpapirpideeeny,oluikteakrae,e,a high-bred man, in teasing a Th e people were dead at any rate, and got reason. i :er t e ak fr e om it t a w n o y to a hundred. Mr. Graydon—Now, again, can you tell me what number of people were in the lane? Witness —will you take it by guess •work? Witness —Well, Mr. Graydon—l really must protect against this levity. When such answers are given in a serious • in vestigation of this kind, it is enough to throw discredit on the witness's testimony. Such ,Tlfer 'a e ' an answer as from two to a hundred. Witness—Well, didn't I make the bargain with you? The witness's cross•examination WAS continued at great length, but nothing material was elicited save a repetition of his direct testimony. outrage s eizing at once lipou C ana d a and the Brit i sh pos - The New York Sun proposes " to settle the fisheries se izing America.,, 1852, NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Commodore Lambert, who has been second in com mand in the East Indies, with a blue broad pendant in the Fox, 42, and has conducted all the naval opersiions at Rangoon, has bean appointed a first class commodore, which, with his red pendant, will give him the pay and privileges of a flag-officer. This gallant officer has won this mark of distincti on , an d th e a ppr e ciation of his ser vices is highly creditable to the Admiralty. The commander-in-chief, Rear-Admiral Austen, C. 8,, , has left the affairs a t R angoon ent i re l y i n t h e h a nds o f the 11 commodore, for in hi s ,g-ship Hastings 72, Cap tai▪ n Austen, and accompanied by the Sphynx, 6, steam sloop, Commander Shad well, and the Rattler, 9, screw sloop, Commander Mellersh, he ltft Rangoon, May 10, for Penang. Captain Thomas Wren Carter (1831), who last com manded the Caledonia, 120, has been selected by Rear- Admiral Dundas, C. 8., the commander-in-chief in the Mediterranean, as hi s fl ag capta i n, i n the room of Cape tat▪ n Goldsmith, who has returned to England on private affairs. Commander Lord John Hay (1851) has been appointed to study steam at the factory, Woolwich. Lieut.

George Roome, at Deptford, to be foreman of sailmakers at Sheerness. OFF MALAGA, JULY 17.—The squadron, fourteen in number, with Admiral Dundas; it blowing a good breeze the Admiral sent the Trafalgar six miles to lee ward, and then started all the other ships to sail round her, and then beat up to him. We rounded the Trafal gar in the following order—Phaeton, Vengeance, High flyer, Indefatigable, Encounter, Albion, Arrogant, Bel lerophon, Dauntless. The Phaeton was four minutes before Vengeance, which was half a minute before Highflyer. In beating up to windward the latter soon stepped to windward of ail except Phaeto❑ (White's frigate), and rounded the Admiral as follows:—Phaeton, Highflyer, Indefatigable, Encounter, Vengeance, Albion, Bellerophon, Dauntless, Arrogant. In the afternoon the Admiral made signal for Phaeton and Highflyer to try rate of sailing. It was blowing fresh, and Phaeton carried away her maintopgallant yard, and other little mishaps. The Admiral then annulled the trial, but it was sufficiently evident Phaeton bad the best of it; however it was a great triumph for Highflyer. 19/ll—The Admiral employed the forenoon in exer cising the ships in different manmuvres, forming orders of sailing, lines of battle, retreat, &c.; after it was over telegraphed " Highflyer very well." PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—Niger, screw steam-sloop, Commander Heath, came into Portsmouth Harbour this morning to be examined; she will probably be docked to have her paddle-shaft examined. Vimiera, for Port Philip with emigrants, and the Marlborough, Indiaman, sailed yesterday morning for their destinations. The Irish steam-packet Foyle embarked a portion of the 7th Royal Fusiliers this morning from the dockyard, and left with them in the afternoon for Plymouth. She will return on Thursday for the remainder of the same regiment. It seems a very peculiar feature in the con ducting of the transport service of the State, that whilst men-of-war steam-frigates are lying ready for sea, but listlessly inactive, in the roadstead and in harbour, that the country should be put to the expense of hiring a mercantile trading steamer to do the national work. Does this matter lie with the Admiralty or the War office? The Wasp, 14, Commander Pritchard (acting), sailed from Spithead last night for Woolwich to refit, but whe ther before or after paying off is not known. A survey is being held on the Harpy iron steam-ves sel to-day. SHEERNESS, Aua. 10.—Her Majesty's ship Daphne, 18, Captain Fanshawe, had her powder taken out yes terday, and left at noon, in tow of the African steam tug vessel, for Chatham, where she will be dismantled and.paid off. Her Majesty's screw steam frigates, Amphion, 34, and Horatio, 22, and paddle-wheel steam -vessel, Cyclops, 6, have taken on board as much coal as they can stow, so that they may be ready to proceed to sea, if required, at the shortest possible notice.

(From the London New Price Current, Aug. 10.) SUGAR.-To-day the West India Sugar market pre sented a firmer appearance; there was a good demand not only from grocers but also refiners; the prices ob tained being fully equal t o th ose of Friay. At auction 201 hhds Barbadoes sold with fair spirit at previous terms, fine yellow realized 37s 6d to 38s 6d, middling to good 33s to 375, ordinary 32s to 32s 6d, and one lot good grainy 40s per cwt. REFINED -To- day there was no improvement in prices of Refined Seger, bat the home trade demand was evidently more active; brown lumps at 44s to 446 61, and low to fine grocery lumps 45s to 463 6d, per cwt. The market for Crushed Sugar has a dull aspect, and easier rates are accepted. MAURITIUS.-This afternoon holders are firmer, and offered none at public sale; privately operations were upon a more extended scale, at previous rates. EAST INDIA.-This afternoon Bengal Sugar was in much better demand, and the previous value was well sustained for all descriptions. The parcels at auction, amounting to 4,900 bags, were nearly all disposed of- Benares good to flue white went at 36s 6d to 39d 61, low to mid 34s 6d to 365, damp and washed 333 to 383, mid and good soft yellow 27s to 30s, good to fine like Mauritius 33s 6d to 36s 6d, and tine grainy yellow 38s 6d to 39s per cwt. Of Madras none was offered at auc tion, but privately several parcels were sold at full terms. FOREIGN.-Tc-day rather lower rates being accepted for Foreign Sugar occasioned a better demand to prevail, especially for exportation. Since Friday operations are three cargoes yellow Havannah at 20s 6d to 22s 3d for numbers 14 to I4i ; two of brown Pernambuco at 153 41d; some parcels white Havannah at 28s to 30s, and 800 chts yellow at 35s to 393 for ordinary to fine. There was again no pubic sale. MOLASSES.-Thera is yet a reluctance to operate in West India, and prices have slightly given way. Only small parcels were disposed of, and supply is on the in crease. Prices for Antigua and Barbadoes rule at 14s to 15s. St. Kitts and Lucia 12s to 139 6d. In Bengal and Mauritius purchases have been trifling at 12s to 12s 6d, Porto Rico and Cuba 14s 64 to 15s 6d. Tama ' rinds less in request, !and more desire is evinced to sell, West India at 243 to 403, East India 7s to 12s, bat sup ply is not more plentiful. For Honey there is yet se veral buyers, Jamaica at 35s to 40s, Cuba 32s to 40s, and Narbonne 503 to 60s per cwt. COFFEE.-This afternoon Plantation Ceylon Coffee was in brisk demand, and the rates obtained were rather above those of Friday. At auction 300 casks, 50 bar. rels, and 300 bags were disposed of, good to fine ord at 50s to 525, fine fine ord 53s to 545, low mid 55s to 563, mid and good mid 57s to 60s, triage 43s to 48s, and black 355. Native was in fair request privately at 44s 6d to 455, and at auction 80 bags realized 453 63 for very good ordinary, and 42s to 43s 6d for damaged. Jamaica was in larger demand, and stiffer rates are ob tained. At public sale 160 casks 150 brls and bags were disposed of, ordinary to good ordinary at 445 to 465, fine to fine fine ordinary 475 to 525, and triage 35s to 43s per cwt. Foreign Coffee is wanted, and rates are rather higher for Costa Rica. Mocha was sold to a fair extent privately at a small advance. COCOA.-The demand does not improve for West India, and previous rates are barely sustained although consumption is favourable, but stock is heavy, and ex ceeds that of last year by 6,500 bags, prices showing a reduction of 6s to 8s per cwt. There are sellers of Trinidad, grey 28s to 325, low middling red 32s 6d to 355, and good to fine 36s to 40s. At auction 250 bags Grenada sold at 26s 6d to 32s 6d, and 63 bags Barba does 26s 6d to 28s per cwt. In foreign 'sales have been small, and a desire is evinced to sell Bahia and Para at 25s to 265, and Guayaquil at 303 to 31s per cwt. Stock is still rather smaller than it was last season. TEA..-There is no general decline to notice for Congou, although dealers have operated with caution, and S in o f u rj e r h io o ti r supply is plentiful; the better sorts are least in request. Prices for low to good ord rule at 7d to Bid, rather blackish leaf to blackish leaf 9d to 10id, strong and Pekoe kinds lld to is 6d.

Rear-Admiral Sir Phipps Hornby, K.C.8., and Com modore Sir Thomas Herbert, K,C.B, Lords of the Ad miralty, visited Woolwich-dockyard to-day, and were accompanied by Commodore - Superintendent Henry Eden and Mr. Lang, master-shipwright, during a lengthened inspection of the Agamemnon, 90, fittieg with engines of 600-horse power and screw propeller by John Penn and Son. The Tyne store and troop ship, Master-Commander Peter Wellington, is still at Woolwich refitting for further service, and has not left this port since she returned with old stores from Rio and the Island of Ascension. The Widgeon steam-vessel went down:the river a short distance this afternoon to try her engines, and, when completed, she is to be taken round to Pembroke to be employed as a tug vessel at that port, instead of the Troyer°, now unfit for service. The works connected with the enlargement of the en trance to the outer basin are now nearly completed, and the caisson, after being lengthened 9 feet, or 4i feet o❑ each side, has been replaced in its former position, and a new platform raised over it. When necessary, two large volumes of water can be discharged at a considerable height through it from the water in the basin, which has the effect of deepening the entrance considerably, and the fall causes the current to carry off the mud deposits to a distance from the wharf wall. DEVONPORT, MONDAY.—Lady Montague convict ship sailed this afternoon with 290 male convicts for Van Diemen's Land. A Mr. Wilkinson has been hero to-day and visited the Belleisle, 72, Endymion, 44, and Andromache, 44, with a view to their being purchased for the merchant ser vice. A party of gentlemen from Lloyd's have visited the dockyard this afternoon. TITEBDAT.—Orders have been recEived at the dock yard at this port to diicontinue the sale of old rope. In the trial of a party at the recent BNlcoin assizes, on the charge of embezzling Queen's stores, the judge took oc casion to remark on the impropriety of the Government disposing of articles of this description. The present order is supposed to have arisen out of these obser vations. CHATHAM, MONDAY.—The Daphne, 18, Captain Fan shawe, came to Chatham this afternoon to be paid off.

Yesterday afternoon Mr. Carter held an inquest at the Hero of Waterloo, Waterloo-road, on the body of George Charrott, a coachman recently i n t he e mploy of Mr. Dimack, the banker, residing at Forest Hill. ao Mr. Charles Ansel], the ke e p er of the Bridge between ffe house, 52, Lower Marsh , sa id on Sunday la9t, five and six o'clock in the morning, the deceased and his wife were brought in a cab to my house from the Tower street police-station, and I wes induced to accommodate them with a bed. They were shown to the back first door room, and the woman who was very tipsy as as sisted to bed. After that the deceased and the man who had brought them to my house left together; but deceased soon after returned. He appeared very much distressed at the conduct of his wife, who had a pair of black eyes. In the course of conversation he said her cause of m i s conduct had been th e his leaving his s ituation at Forest Hill, the * night previous ; and he repeatedly spoke about the di t s o e o r . ace Th s e h y e was bringing upon herself and him both remained there the whole day ; he had dinner and other refreshments, but she h a d no t. I saw t h em both repeatedly du r i ng the day. The woman was covered with bruises, and on m asking how she got them she told me it w as i n consequence of her falling about. The deceased got some lotion which he applied to her eyes; he also administered to her a black draught. Altogether he evinced the utmost solicitude about her, and towards the evening after having some tea she appeared to be getting a little better. Between 8 and 9 o'clock, whilst I was in the ki tchen at the back of the shop, I heard a noise in the room above from some one falling heavily on the floor; and on a going l oing to ascertain the cause I found the door fastened on the inside. I then knocked; but not being able to get a satisfactory answer, and, fan cying the woman might have hurt herself, I got on the leads of the back kitchen, and, opening the window of the room, entered it by that means. I then opened the door, and sung out to my servants to bring a light ; he, however, mistook what I said, and brought a knife. I took the knife from him and laid it on the washstand, and he immediately after brought me a candle. I then, with his assistance, lifted the woman into bed; directly after which, on looking round, I found the man suspended by a cord which he bad taken from a box he brought with him, to a hatpee• on a cupboard door near the side o f t h e bed. I 4imme diately cut him down, and sent for Dr. Sewell, who promptly arrived, and pronounced him to be dead. woman also sent for the police , an d the y c onveyed the w to the Lambeth Workhouse, and the man was taken to the deadhouse. By the CORONER-It must have been his own act; the woman could not help herself. The CORONER —Had she any knowledge of his being i n the position you found him in?—N o . In answer to further questions, the witness stated that when deceased was talking about the conduct of his wife, he appeared very low-spirited, and even cried. The last time witness saw Ceceased alive was about six o'clock; and when he went up to the r oon2 on hearing the fall, he i S WifZiItLAND.
