The Malacca, 17, screw corvette, Captain Farquhar, will go out and join to-morrow or Friday, having completed her refit. The Cruiser, 14, Commander the Hon. G. Douglas ; and the Falcon, 14, Conimander Pullen, left Spithead yesterday morning for the Channel to relieve the wind-bound merchantmen. Seamen are flocking into Portsmouth in good numbers, mostly men .who have bad their run, and been lately employed in the wiling line-of-battle ships recently returned to England from the Mediterranean. The Vietniry, flag-ship, vic tualled nearly 1,000 yesterday, 400 of whom were sub sequently draughted or allowed to volunteer into the blockships Cornwallis, Hawke, Pembroke, Hastingg, and Russell at Spithead. The ban against these ships receiving volunteers cf i‘eamen having been removed by. the Admiralty, it is expected that-by this day week every one of those ships will be ready to leave for the Baltic with her full complement of 600 men on her books. The Porcupine steam-vessel, Lieut. Jackson, left Ports- mouth for Sheerness yesterday afternoon, and the M3r iiiidon steam-vessel returned to Portsmouth from Pem broke. The Great Tasmania transport arrived at Spit head at 6 o'clock last evening from Liverpool in tow of a tug, to embark 1,000 troops fur the Crimea. Time Rhadanianthus, steam transport, arm ived at Portsmouth yesterday evening from the eastviard. THE CONDUCT OF VIE WAR. (Front the Pima of this day.) . We often hear of men who are ovei-educated for their triderstandincr, and, ind ee d, i t i s o f suc h pers ons that the - bores, the praters, and the sciolists of society are :omposed. Such persons have furnished themselves .vith an instrument, which they cannot apply, and that .which was meant to be their honour has become their .eproacl i -th a t w h ich was designed for their aid has m9corrie their hind rance. . Such would' see m t o b e the ' position occupied by modern G overnments : Inductive philosphy has ran ,aelted the storehou ses o f nature—has f orce d h er secrets !roin her, arid wrested front her hand her hidden and 'mysterious p owers. We can send our fleets - over the vater winged with a speed and, vsesslng a power of ,mrriage which the boldest imagination never could have nticipated. We can sernta message with the-rapidity of ightning, and outrun, if.not time- itself, that revolution •I the earth by which we troasureit. All these are vast 'Leilities for cultivating an I improving the arts of ,eace, aiAl equally Mighty agencies fur affecting h e rapid combinations of war. Yet the result ias shown that these magnificent, azencies, so subordi tatel to our will, are in a great measure neutralised, if ! ot rendered positively hurtful, by the want in our tatesmen of an intelligence able to 'deal with their 'ewers—able to foresee and effect the combinations the .control over which is placed in the r weak and unskilful •tngs. Our steamers have carried our troona out 13, rapidly to the seat of war that pr,-parw ion—fur their ar nval lagged far behind them, and our wondrous electric :;ilegraph has been the source of endless confusion and iv4ification, disappointment, annoyance, and uncer tainty. Take but the latest instance. We have, at :/10r1110US expense, carried the electric wire under no considerable portion of the Black Sea, and made Bala lava, fiir the purposes of dote ligence at least, so nething little more remote' thatra - rit?mrb of London. .Ve have dons all this, but one thing we have omitted —we have omitted to supply ourselves with a Goneral fling to avail himself of the instiuinent we have pro- Jided, or with a Ministry disposed to give us the benefit of the information they receive. Therefore, the electric telegraph to Baiaklava has turned out of no value to the cation which paid for it, and has even added to the per liexities of those whose business it is to draw such con olosions as they may from the fragmentary intelligence which arrives. have news by way of St. Petersburg and Berlin, Vienna, by Marseilles ; but all these sources of infor nation are di scre dit e d w h en we remem b er t h at t h e more rapid source of communication is silent, and by the con jectures to which we are driven in order to account for that silence. First, we hear that the key to the cipher in which the despatches are written travels by steam, while the cipher itself runs with the feet of the light ning ; and, next, that though the messages are decipher. able, they consist of nothing but frivolous questions or unmeaning acknowledgments. Still out of al! this con fusion there is some glimmering of light—something out of which one may form an estimate, though far from an exact one, of the real state of things. First, there is the steamer Cairn, which brings us intelligence from Balaklava up to April 17. The narrative is a checkered one. General Bizot, the Commander of the French Engineers, died of a wound received by him in the trenches, and was buried on the 16th. On the 14th the French ex ploded three mines under the Flagstaff Battery, with ' only partial effect ; and, though the Russians appre hended an assault, the injury was not sufficiently great to justify the operation. On the night of the 13th a sortie took place, which cost the French 300 men and six officers, but was repulsed with more than ordinary success and more than ordinary slaughter. On the 16th two of the Russian ships were burnt—a statement which seems to derive some confirmation from a report drawn from a Russian source, which states that the enemy's fleet had advanced from the innern)e3t harbour in order battle, and 'had placed themselves near Fort . . Nicholas, the work which, as our readers will re member, defends the southern side of the harbour of • Sebastopol. By the Simeis we learn that the Eng lish have taken by assault the ambuscades in front of the Tower of Malakhoff, and that the Russians have found themselves obliged to abandon one of their battaries. In the meanwhile the Russians appear to be drawing their lines more firmly around our position ; and the concentration of force is, if we are to believe the report• of deserters, t Ira-mous. Over and above all this, the illoniteur publishes a despatch of the 28th, to the effect that the - besiegers have momentarily su-pended their fire to await reinforcements, and to I , pare the ex penditure of ammunition. Putting all the-e things together, it would seem that we have certainly made some progress in our operations, that we arA gra,!lually drawing nearer to the object of our attack. and that the enemy have found themselves (rite unable to car y out or maintain the counter wnrlis with which at one time they so seriously 'hr aten,,l our position. Even the Russian accounts which. we,publish do not claim any brilliant .ucces., and are in some places expressed with an aminguity which inn), possibly be meant. to cover , disasters, and admit the tremmidnu, force of the fire to which the town has been subjected. This cannonade must, indeed, have been of unexampled severity—unique, as far as we are aware, in the annals of war. To sustain such a fire fir so many consecutive days and nights—ninetetn, accord in.; to the account in the Moniteue—argues an ablinfance of resources, a solidity in the ordnance employed, and a power of endarance on the l att r f the men, tranecendit g anything we have ever heard or read of. Thy world can never have witnessed anything more terrible than this lung-continued struggle, in which instruments of destruc tion of a size and power never nefore employed in war have been mi,t by Others equally powerful, and the than lers of a tropical storm have been put to silence by the fearful din of artillery. During On; great duel of artillery the enemy has been ga' tiering in mighty masses around us, and any day may witness an attack made in enormous force along the whole line of our defences, backed by furious sallies from the beleaguered t , wn. Never were numbers more needed than now. As the land dries, and the country becomes traversable, we must expect to meet in mortal encounter all the troops which a great empire not else where invaded can spare for the defence of a single pro vince. The difficulty of subsisting' this immense body of men in the arid steppes of the Crimea will probably counsel prompt awl even desperate action. We need every man that can be sent, and yet we hear of 40,000 Fre',eh troops remaining on the Bosphorus, and a whole division of cavalry which has spent the winter at Adrianople. Never wag there a situa- Lion so full of hope and fear, of danger and of pro mise. One moment we seem likely to grasp great suc cesses, the next suggests the apprehension of enormous reverses. The nation is in a fever of expectation. The absolute Government of Fran ce fi n d s mea ns to communi- cal e to its subjects the last intelligence, even though that intelligence be neither flattering nor encouraging. But we are condemned to learn, at second-hand, information c irried by our own telegr a ph , an d are i n d e bt e d t o our neighbours for giving us by th at means a ll th e know ledge we as yet possess of our own moat interesting affairs. Is it possible that Lord Raglan should have sent information of the concentration of 'Russian troops on the Belbtck, and inquired after the Sardinian Con tingent, without info'rming his Government that he had suspended fire ? The thing seems incredible, and yet we have the strongest Ministerial assurances of its THE LONDON GAZETTE OF LAST NIGHT. DOWNING-STREET, APRIL 25.

A court-martial assembled at Plymouth on Monday morning, on board the flag-ship Impregnalile, 104, t) in quire into the circunistanues connected with the ground ing of the paddle-wheel steam-s oop ilec'a. 0, on the morning of the 23d of January la , t, at the back of the rock of Gibraltar ; and to try , her, commanding officer, Henry Samuel Hawker, and her mister, E. J. H. Tucker, for their conduct on that j,icra:ion. The Court consist, d of R , aa-Adiniral J. H. Pluturidge, tendent iS the Devimport Dockyard, president ; Ciprain John liir.gcoine, Ro)a,l %tiilliau, ; Cap , ain Lord Edward Vei,geaace ; Captsio Cuaries Wise, lii;prea. ; and Capra; W oo d a ard J. Sanspaa en. Mr. Wildam Eastlake officiated as' Judge Advocate. Mr. John I3eer, solicitor, of Devhnp , ri, attended a- Cominand , r Hawker'S friend ; aunt Mr. J. E. El worthy, lolicitor, of Yiyinouth, watched the ca-e on beh a lf ~1 Mr. Tucker. On the part of the prosecution, it was shown that on the moriiniz of the 231 of January the Heels, was proceeding to Malaga under charge of Com mander Hawker, who retired to bed about half-past 10 o'clock, but previously to doing ,so entered in the order-book that a good look-out should be kept for vessels, so as to haul clear of them, and a request to be called when the vessel had run 35 miles after 8 o'clock. It appeared that the second part of this order was not obeyed. The vessel proceeded under steam about 5 miles an hour. The weather was described as very dark awl "nasty ;" the wind was rather fresh from S.S.E., variable, with a force of about five. The pateot log was put over at seven in the evening, and hauled in about midnight, and showed that 211 knots had been run during that time. ,At 10 minutes after 4 on the morning in question the course given by the relieving officer on watch was W.N.W. Mr. Tucker, the ma ter, was on the bridge at the tune the course was given, and a few minutes alerwards he went below. At 4.30 the officer of the watch, named Allen, observed three lights, two of which appeared to be from ships, and the other a standing one from the shore. Allen then gave direc tions for the helm to be put two points aporc. Mr. Tucker, on hearing the order, inquired the reason, and ordered the vessel to be steered as before, W.N.W. About 5.40 some breakers were observed on the port bow, and Mr. Tucker, who was then on the quarter deck, gave directionsfor the ship to be stopped, the engines reversed, and the helm to be put hard aport. At 5.50 she struck forward on a reef of rocks at the back of the rock of Gibraltar. Immediately on breakers being observed, Commander Hawker was called, lint before he 'could arrive on deck the ship had struck. Directions were then given to launch the starboard paddlebox boat, a hawser attached to a line was thrown on shore, minute guns were fired, and subsequently, on finding that she could not be got off, her fore and mainmasts were cut aw ay, and the ship abandoned. On the night following the occurrence, the Hec]a filled from holes made in her bottom by the floating spars. Abtut 10 minutes before she struck the master ordered the man in the chains to heave the lead, and it was found that she was in three anti a half 'fathoms, the ship drawing 14 feet. Upwards of a dozen witnesses were called for the prosecution, at the conclusion of which the Court adjourned till the, following day (Tuesday). On the opening of tie court, yesterday, Commander Hawker entered upon his defence, and alleged that the master, Mr. Tucker, had deviated from his instructions relative to steering the ship. He read numerous tezii munials, and called several witnesses in his behalf. Mr. Tucker could not account, in his defence, for the stranding of the Hee!a, but called several witnesses to prove his attention to duties on the night in ques tion, and also read several testimonials. The Court considered the commander to blame, and adjudged him to be severely reprimanded. The master was sentenced to be dismi sse d f rom t h e Hecla, and to lose two years' service. THE TRANSPORT SERVICE. The screw steam-transport Victoria, No. 72, belonging to the Australian Royal Mail Company, which arrived at Southampton en Saturday evening, with invalided troops from the garrison at Gibraltar, still remains in the river. She-bas, however, at last disposed of her inVa lids, for they were sent ashore from the ship yesterday morning in a steam tug, a period of only two days and a-ball having elared since her arrival l The poor fel lows seemed delighted when they lauded, but complained of the unnecessary confinement to which they had been subjected. The delay with regard to this ship is another of the many flagrant cases which have at various times been recorued. In this, as in other instances, no blame can be attached to the A imiralty officials at kaithamp ton, for no sooner had the vessel arrived than intelli gence of the fact was forwarded by telegraph to London. After waiting for several hours no replf was received, and it was not until too late on Monday night to send the passengers ashore that any knowledge existed of the wishes at head-quarters. Early yesterday morning, however, they were speedily got out of the ship and des patched to Chatham. The Victoria will be docked and repaired previously to her leaving Southampton. The General Screw Company's screw steam-ship In diana, No. 147, left Southampton for Woolwich yester day morning, fcr the purpose of embarking horses for conveyance to the Crimea. She is fitted to accommo date 225, and will also berth a large number of troops. The capacity of her decks renders her admirably suited fir the purposes of the horse transport service ; and the good sailing qualities of this fine vessel will insure a speedy transit to the place of her destination. terd detai esterday a ,chment of the Royal Artillery, con sisting of 200 men, arrived at Liverpool from Woolwich, an d proceeded the same evening to Dublia by steamer, RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS.

Yesterday a special court of the governors of Christ's Hospital was held, and which was most numerously at tended, for the purpose of taking into consideration the recommendations contained in the report of the select committee appointed Dec. 19, 1854, to inquire "Whether any, and, if any, what changes are desirable in the con stitution,)powers, and duties of the committee of almon ers," and for the despatch of other business. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, K.G., the president, was in the chair, and amongst those present were the Duke of Northumberland, the Duke of Cleveland, the Venerable Archdeacon Hale, Aldermen Sir G. Carroll, Sidney, Finnis, Wilson, Kennedy, Wire, Sir J. Duke, Rose ; Sir E. Antrobus, J. Neeld, Esq., M.P., William Cotton, Esq. (late governor of the Bank of England), J. M'Geechy, &c. 'THE COMMITTEE OF ALMONERS. Mr. RUSSELL GURNEY moved that the recommenda tions contained in the report of the select committee that had been appointed so far back as the 19th of December last be adopted, viz.:-- " That with a view to lighten the labour of the com mittee of almoners, the duties with which it is now charged be divided between two distinct committees, to be called the committee of almoners and the committee of renters. " That the committee of almoners do transact all the business and discharge all the duties heretofore committed to their charge, except such as are hereafter transferred to the committee of renters.
