FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE • OF FRIDAY. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY.—The Eurydice, 26, Cap tain 'Anson, arrived at Spithead this day, at noon, from the Cape of Good Hope station.' She put in Ply mouth Sound on Friday night, and landed mails, and sailed thence for this port at three . P.M. yesterday. She sailed from Mauritius on - the 18th of September, where affairs were impr6viete, and the price of sugar was advancing. The French frigate Artemise, 26, lay there undergoing extensive repairs. She left the Cape on the 12th of October, leaving in the Bay the Castor, 36, Commander Wyvill ; the Neptune con vict ship, with half her prisoners quarterel on board the Seringapatam depot ship ; and the Geyser, steam ''eloop, Commander Browne. • Dr. Dees, Superin tendent of the Neptune convict ship (whose illness we reported on the arrival of the last acivices)e ched in hospital at Simon's Bay just before the Eurydice sailed. Dr. Gibson, of the .Eurydice, was appointed by the Commodore to the charge of the Neptune; Assistant-Surgeon King, of the Eurydice, being pro moted to the vacancy ofmr. Gibson. Dr. Munro, of theCastor, h is also dead, and Assistant-Surgeon Elli o tt, of that ship, promo t e d to _ t h e v a cancy. The Dee steam troop Lieutenant Commander Crowder (acting), was in the Mozambique looking for slaves. The Orestes, 14, Commander Hawker, sailed from Simon's Bay for the Mezunbique on a similar expe dition, on the 4th . "of October. The Cleopatra, 26, Captain Massie, from England and Rio, had net put in at the Cape. ' The Eurydice put in at St. llelena on the 24th of October, and found there three prizes —one to the Centaur steam-frigate, one to the Cyclops and Rattler, and one to the Se:shale whose prize officers (Mr. Small : . pay, of the Rattler, mite; Mr. Stewart, midshipman of the same vessel; and Mr. Simpson, midshipman a 4 the Cyclops) .and crew she gave passage to Ascension„ which she left on the 31st of October, at which date Commodore Fanshawe was at the island in the Cen taur steam -frigate. The Tortoise gusrdship, Captain Hutton, was &so there. The Flying Fish, 12, Com mander Patey, arrived at Ascension from England and Sierra Loewe on the evening of the 30th of Oc tober. The Coast of Africa squadron was all healthy. The Eurydice has brought home a freight on Govern merit account amounting to 8,0001. sterling, in small coin, principally " tokens " from the Mauritius, and the following officers :—Lieutenant A. W. Palmer, sth Fusiliers, from the Mauritius ; Lieutenants Thompson, Shuldham, Gore, and Elkington, of the 6ch Royal Regiment of Feat, from the Cape. Mr. Wynniett, mate of .her Majesty's ship Dolphin, left behind at Ascension when that vessel left for England, has also come home in the Eurydice. The City of Poonah Indianian sailed from the Cape for England, we are informed, 36 hours before the Eury dice, which latter is ordered into the harbour to be paid off. Affairs at the Cape were becoming, if pos sible, more unsettled every day. A great meeting was held at Cape Town on the day before the Eury dice sailed, at which some most sweeping resolutions were passed. The " supplies " bad been granted to the navy and army, but bad again been summarily stopped. Sir Harry Smith was at Cape Town. The Eurydice was commissioned in May, 1846, by Captain Elliott, under whose command she joined the experimental squadron. Captain Elliott was suc ceeded on the Bth of October, in the same year, by her present commander, Capt a i n An son , under hom she has been employed entirely at the Cape station. It is to be regretted that in consequ9nce of disputes on board a court-martial or court of inquiry will, in all probability, be necessary on four or five of the oung officers, unless they retire from the service. At two o'clock this afternoon the frigate sailed for Portsmouth. ROYAL MARietas.—An exchange of divisions has been sanctioned between the undermentioned officers: —Captain T. D. Fosbrook, of the Woolwich division, and Captain H. C. M. Hawkey, Plymouth division ; First Lieutenant J. A. Stewart, Acting Paymaster to the detachment at Pembroke-dock, to be Adjutant at Woolwich, vice Foote, promoted; First Lieutenant W. A. Gamer Wright, to be Paymaster at Pembroke, vice Stewart.

The question is often debated, Where is the best market to buy the necessaries of ltfc ? among the more important • f which may be enumerated tea, coffee, and sugar. There exist different opinions, as is sure to be the case, and ever will be, until people knew how to decide v. hat onstitutes cheapness. • Tea is an article of such general consumption that its quality and price are very essential considerations. There exiSts great difficult,. in judging i:s value by appearance, and families, to secure gool qualities, are frequently induced to pay extravagant prices. Why should this be? The importations for several years have been re markably large, comprising unisually fine selections ; the markets have ruled low; and the public are fairly entitled to the ..dvantagea arising therefrom.

The Enterprise was taken into duck at Woolwich to-day, to have her bottom examined, and the Inves tigator was taken into the basin preparatory to being docked, and there is now no doubt of another expe dition being sect in search of Captain Sir John Franklin and the officers and men or the Erebus and Terror discovery vessels.

The ceremony of christening the ship was gone through; it was performed by Mrs. A.

His father felt alarmed, having consulted the most eminent surgeons to no purpose, while his son continued to waste away. At this juncture a friend advised a trial of Hol loway's Pills and Ointment, which was made, and in six weeks they perfectly cured him.

Sir,—lt Is now three and a half years since r was sorely afflicted with Rheumatic Goat, the suffering from which induced rae to try all the proposed remedies that extensive medical experience could devise, without obtaining any satisfactory relief from pain. During one of the paroxysms a friend advised me to try BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, observing that he had in some severe cases taken them himself, and they proved very successful. I in stantly adopted his advice, and to my Joy the excruciating torment soon began to abate, and a few boxes restored me to health, since which I have bad no return of the complaint. " I trust you will give publicity to my case, that suffering humanity may know how to obtain a remedy for this distressing disease. " I am, Sir, your obedient humble servant, "MICHAEL NASMYTH." The above testimonial is a further proof of the efficacy of Tilair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills,which afford speedy relief to those afflicted with gout, rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, tic doloreux, pains in the head and face, and all analogous complaints. The never-failing eff eta of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS'in curing every description of Gout and Rheumatism, have secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, but re store to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are equally speedy and certain in lumbago, sciatica, pains in the head or face, and indeed in every rheumatic or gouty affection : In fact, such has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it ; and ,there ls scarcely a city, town, or villa ge i n the kingdom but contains many grateful evidences of its benign influence.

Advices from this island, which extend to the evening of the 7th of November, represent the colony as continuing healthy, and the weather, almost throughout the island, highly favourable to culti vation. The mails, which left Southampton on the 2d of October, did not reach Kingston until the evening of the et November. The delay was owing to bad weather experienced by the outward boat from South ampton. The general irregularity in the arrival of the steamers has created considerable annoyance to parties in Jamaica as well as in other colonies. In the present case in Jamaica, many parties residing in parishes in the interior had not sufficient time afforded them between the arrival and the departure of the steamer to answer their correspondence. American steamers arrive semi-monthly at Kingston with more regularity than the English boats, and European in telligence is generally anticipated in Jamaica by them. Merchants have in many instances availed themselves of the conveyance to forward letters to Europe. The Legislature continued in session, and had been sitting upwards of kfro mouths, during which period little or no business of real importance to the country has been transacted. The retrenchment question, which has been so long in abeyance, and upon which parties cannot agree, seemed still'to exclude from the public mind all other subjects, and many important measures of legislation were left unattended to. The evening before the packet left a report from a com mittee was agreed to by the House, recommending the following reductions in the expenditure : All salaries of 2001. and up to 1,000/.- to be reduced 10 per cent., and salaries of 1,0001. and upwards to be reduced 20 per cent. Contrary to general expectations, this scale of reduction was opposed by the " King's House party," principally on the ground that it would not be assented to by the Council. The Country party supported it, declaring it to be for the public good, and disregarding altogether the wi.hss of the Council. The report was agreed to in rather a thin house. Eighteen members of the Country party voted for it, and six members of the Opposition against it. The evening on which the steamer left was appointed for further discussion on the subject, and there appeared no doubt that a Bill to effect the reductions recommended in the report would be agreed to. In the event of this, should the Council again venture to reject so mild a measure, the hostile position of the diff e rent bra nc h es o f th e Legislature one to another will be renewed. In the meanwhile the country was suffering from the loss of revenue, the Country party having refused to proceed with the consideration of a Bill levying a duty on rum con sumed in the island until the Council shall have passed the Retrenchment Bill which would soon be prepared for them. From the unnecessary delay which takes place in almost every measure introduced, occasioned by the unseemly and personal discussions which arise, it was thought that the session would not be brought to a close in time for the Christmas holidays, unless, as usually is the case, many im portant matters were disregarded. The following, in reference to the establishment of a regular mail communication between New York and Jamaica, appears in one of the local papers : " KINGSTON, JAMAICA, Nov. s.—The Consul of the United States respectfully takes leave to inform the merchants and other inhabitants of this island that the address which they did him the honour to present to him, under date of the 3d September last, requesting that he would solicit his Government to e6t.3blish regular mail communication through this port, has been forwarded and most favourably rec.'iv"d; and from the tenor of the communication received by him, he is led to believe that, at the meeting of Congress, the measure will be carried into effect." MARKETS.—TUESDAY AFTEMOON, NOT. 6. The business of the week has been quite as dull and heavy as that which preceded it.. Trade seems to be entirely at a stand. The ScASCII3 throughout the country have been excellent; but them are few estates at th s moment in a position to take advantage of them. The labourers are ill employed, and are therefore unable to purcha , c more than they are compelled to provide thtmselves with. Business consequently droops con siderably, and all branches of trade are in a state of complete stsgnetion. Freight remains extremely dull, without any lick of Ships. Exchanges on London—Jamaica Bank: 90 days, per cent. prem.; 60 days, 11 per cent. prem. Colonial Bat k: 90 days, 4 per cent. prem.; 60 dap, per cent. prem.

Loss BY FIRE AT SEA OF TUE AMERICAN EMI GRANT SHIP CAREL GREMSIIEM.—FAYAL, AZORBF, Nov. 26.—The British barque Sarah, D. Cook, master, from London to St. John's New Brunswick, put in here on the 24th inst., with 390 passengers (emigrants) taken from the American ship Cabel Gremshem, on fire, on the 17th inst., sixteen miles south east of the Island of Flores. The unfortunate people have lost everything, but have every reason to be thankful for their providential escape from death by fire. The master of the late American ship Cabel Gremshem has been induced to charter the barque Sarah, and forward the passengers to the United States, at the expense of his owners. AN AID TO EARLY RISING.—A mechanic - residing at Newtastla-street, Hulme, has constructed a little ma chine fur tile purpose of awaking himself early in a mornieg. To a Datch clock in the kitchen he has at tached a lever, from which a wiro communicates through the ceiling to the bedroom above, in which he has tired his novel invention. Having set the lever to any hour at which he may wish to be awakened, when the time atlises it is releesed by the clock, and the machinery up stairs rings bell, then trikes a match, which lights an oil latep. This lamp runs upon four wheels, and is at the same instant propelled through a tin tube on a mi• niature railway, about five feet long, which is raised by small iron supports a few inches ahovo the bedroom filar. Near the end of the " line" is fixed an elevated iron stand upon which a small teakettle is placed (holding about a pint), and immediately under it, by the aid of a spring, the lamp is stopped, and its flame boils the water in the kettle in 20 minutes, thus enabling him to take a cup of tea or coffee prior to going to work. The bell attached is so powerful that it awakes his neighbour, and the machine alt gether is of a v7ry neat appearance, the mechanism being of polished iron. The inventor bas made it during his leisure hours, and has been about 18 months in bringing it to a state of completion. ye has also combined economy with utility, as the working of it doe" nut cost more than a halfpenny per week ! a:lane/tester Guardian.

LIVz RPOOL, SUNDAY NIOIIT.--By the .Bonita, from Pernambuco, we have received letters from that port of the 6t,13 of November, which advise that the new sugars were arriving more freely, but the market • had opened tardily for them, and shipments were not expected to be male for Europe for two or three weeks, at which time freights would become more active, and rates to the Channel were expected to be from 455. to 50i. 3d. per cwt. The quotatiot.s for Muscovado were 1,600 to 1,700 ! and white 2,100 to 2,700 reis, per' arroba, according' to quality. Cotton continued in good demand, at 4,Bso^rea.per arroba, and.at the outports of Maceio and Paraiba 5,400 reis was the price free on board. Excharge was 27 . The Soraphina arrived at Pernambuco Nov. 3. Dees from Liverpool of the 27th of September, reporting hes favourably of our sugar and cotton markt ts, but the reverse for coffee had been received. The Brothers and the Eliz3 Johnston left Maceio in company with the Bonita, and the 13odiarn Castle came out with her from Pernambuco, and the Hen rietta would leave Paraiba a few days before all. These vessels are all bound for Liverpool, and includ ing the Bonita's cargo, have on board 12,000 bales of cotton. Exchange was gradually advancing, and was negotiated by the Bonita at 27?,-. The Bonita a l so brings later intelligence from Bahia and Rio Janeiro. Prom Bahia we learn, under date October 23, the new sugars were arriving fast, and only small quantities of shipping being in the bay, the freights were expected to rule accordingly. Prices of the new crop had not yet opened. 1,500 reis to 1,600 reis for brown, and 1,900 reis to 2,000 rein per arroba for white, were fixed . upon as the probable rates. C o tt on was 4,800 rets per arroba, and Exchange 27d. From Rio accounts were but four days later than by ber Majesty's ship Constance, only reaching to the 16th of October. Coffee was quoted 3,900 reis to 4,100 reis for superior, and 3,700 to 3,800 reis fcr good firsts. The stock was 80,000 bags. Freights were dull, at 405. to 455. to the Channel. Exchange 27d. CONSECRATION OF THE BISHOPS OF NORWICH, LLANDAFF, AND MADRAS. Yesterday, lacing Advent Sunday, was appointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury for the consecration of the Right Rev. Dr. Samuel Hinds to the bishopric of Norwich, rendered vacant by the decease of Dr. Stanley; the Right Rev. Dr. Alfred 011ivant to the bishopric of Llandaff, rendered vacant by the decease of Dr. Copplestone, and the Right Rev. Dr. Thomas Dealtry to the bishopric of Madras, rendered vaclnt by the resignation of Dr. George Trevor Sptncer. The ceremony took place in the private chapel of Lambeth Palace, and excited considerable interest, so large a number of bishops never having been conse• crated at one time during the present century, with the exception of 1842 and 1847, in the former of which years five, and in the latter four colonial bishops were admitted to the high offices of the Church. Among the persons present at yesterday's ceremony were the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Bishops of London, Lincoln, Carlisle, Hereford, and Manchester, &c. The usual prayers of the Church, and those speci ally appointed for the occasion, were read by the Rev. 'John Thomas, M.A., the Archbishop's chaplain, and the sermon was preached by the Rev. R. Moore Poultbee, B. D. The Rev. Gentleman selected for his text the 10th chapter of St. Diaries Gospel, verse 43, and dwelt at some length upon the dignity of the-Christian priest hood, and the privileges and duties of the ministerial office. He contended that Christian ministers, whilst they were clothed with humility, should take care never to degenerate into subserviency to worldly policy, and should never surrender any one of their religious principles. At the close of the sermon the Archbishop of Can terbury and the right rev. prelates appointed to assist them took their seats within the altar rails, and the newly elected bish o p s , ves t e d i n their rochets, were presented to his Grace by the Bishops of Lincoln and and Carlisle, with the words—" Most reverend father in God, we present unto you these godly and well learned , persons, to be ordained and con secrate d bishops.' The Queen's mandates for the consecrations were read aloud by Mr. F. H. Dyke, and the newly elected bishops put on the full episcopal habit. They were then admitted, by imposition of hands, bishops of the Church of England, and the Holy Communion being administered, the services of the Church were brought to a close. NEWPORT, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESUONDENT.) INCREASE OF THE BOROUGH BOUNDS.—Under the Boundary Act of 1832, several residents in CowEs claimed the right to vote for the Members of Parliament to be returned for the borough of Newport in the first reformed Parliament, on the ground that the houses they occupied were built on the scil and bed of the Medina or Newport ricer, and about twelve got on the list of voters after a long op o ition from the Liberals of Newport, who contended that as they resided at five miles distance it could never have been intended that they should have a vote the borough, and, further, that the tide of the river had never flowed over the land on which their houfes were built. Year after year other names were add d, and the Tory corporation of Newport kept their hold of tlle borough solely by the aid of their Tory supporters at Cowes, the majority of the New. port voters being against them. A change is now likely to trk,.. place, as in excavat ing t.l e land to form a main sewer tl rough the high street of West Conn es, the workmen, at a depth of from three to four feet, came to a beach of tine shingle through which the tide ebbed and flowed; ttey dug d iwn about three feet it, but the tide pre- Itrited their working at high water. The shingle t rends the whole extent of the cutting up and down the street, and under the houses on both sides of it. Heretofore those residing in the houses on the east side of the street only voted at the election of the Members for the borough of Newport, and also fur the town-councillors; but, on the same principle, the residents on the west side have an equal right to the elective franchise, as in former times there could not have been less than two feet of water flowing over the land on which the houses now stand. The present owner of the Northwood estate being a Liberal will also have a considerable efftct at all future elections for the borough and county. JOSEPH ADY.---At the County Court at Newport, Isle of Wight, on Thursday last, Mr. Butt applied for le,lve to take out a summon; against this worthy, who, he stated, had diddled him out of 20s , on a representation that he would give him some . valuable information for it, but he now found . that it was all humbug. The judge laughed at him; but told him that, as he had sent the money by post-offie order jurisdiction , the case was within the of the Court, and that he could have the summons, SUDDEN REATII IN LANIIIETII CIIURCIL—An a wful instance th, uncertainty of human life oc curre d yesterday during t! e performuince cif Divine service, in be parish church of St. Mary, LamFeth. The efficiat mg minister had just commenced reading the Psalms for the day, when a respectable inhabitant of the parish, named Stickley, who resided at No. 3, Walnut-tree walk, and has for some time past occupied a seat in one of the galleries of the church, was observed to stagger and fall to the ground. The " street orderlies" of the district, who atterd the church regularly, were called to the spot by the pevv-opener, and with their assistance the unfortunate gentlemen was conveyed into the vestry, where he was immediately examined by several medical gentlemen, who at once pronounced life to be extinct. the Rev. Mr. Dalton, the rector, having retired to the vestry, instantly recognised the unfortunate man as a regt,l-r a•ter.dant and communicant at the church. Mr. Superint ndent Rutt, who happened to be in the church, at ( nee gave direci•ms to some of his officers to procure a stretcher, on which the deceased was shortly after ward; conveyed to his late residence. The awful inci (lint created much excitement in the church, and the str% CO was delayed for a few minutes in corsequence. The reverend rector, who was very much affected, al luded, in very fee ling terms, to the cecurrence in the course of his strinon.

In cosequence of the determination of the colonists to resist the reception of the convicts brought out in the Neptune, all the shops continue closed against sup plying either the navy or army, and in order to meet • the Emergency, the Governor is compelled to seize • bullocks while engaged drawing waggons, and to employ forced measures to secure other provisions. A stipulated price _is paid for the captured cattle, which are then grazed on land belonging to the Government, and from this insufficient supply the • forces on shore and at sea are so far furnished. . The Neptune continued at the Cape; her surgeon having died, Mr. Thomas Gibson, surgeon of the Eurydice, had taken medical charge of th e conv ie ts. Al , hough no violence had occurred previous to the departure of the Eurydice, the ferment was at its height. The colonists had declared that they would not supply the naval service with anything whilst the ship was in the bay. The Governor had replied, that he had made every concession in his pawer, and would not submit to threats. The Governor was acting with his Executive Council, and had forwarded a letter of explanation and temperate remonstrance to the associatio i. There were ample supplies for the naval service in the store - at Cap 3 Town. The Eurydice, however, left viith a very limited poultity of fresh provisions. e" z to bag. 5s to "icy, vhite 3y as 6rter.
