(Published in conformity to the 7th section of the Act.) PRICE 71). THE BATTLE OF NAVARIN. Extract of a letter from an. Assistant-Surgeon on board his Majesty's ship Genoa, to his father in Edinburgh, on the arrival of that ship at Plymouth, On the 15th inst..:— " My Dear Father—My arrival in England, after witnessing the glorious battle Of Navarin, affords me the highest pleasure, in being once more able to com municate with you and all those who are dear to me. The Genoa had an Relive part in the battle, being in the heat of it; and the position she took has heen remarked in the Admiral's despatches, as having been beautiful. If I were to give you a detail of the battle of Navarin, I would only be repeating what you must have seen over and over again in the public prints I shall therefore, only give you what chiefly regards our own ship, and my feeliags on the occa sion. Sir ice. Codrington having given the signal Prepare for action,' every thing was bustle and preparation. This was only as means of defence, for we had no intention of attacking the Turks, un less in the event of their firing at its. Every pre paration at the same time was made, on our part, for the reception of the wounded in the cock pit; every ship being . now ready, we bore u 1 for Navarin, following immediately after the Eng lish Admiral. I was standing on the poop, viewing, with intense anxiety, the probable result of our en tering the harbour of Nayarit). We were now abreast of the fort, which is on the right side of the entrance, when a blank shot was fired from - it which made me startle a little. It no doubt was a signal to the Turkish and Egyptian fleets, which I now saw moored in the form of a half-moon, with theit broadside facing us. We took our station alongside, or rather within pistol shot of a Turkish line-of.. battle - ship. Every moment now became more anxious; we had scarcely dropped. anchor, when 1 observed the DarimoulA frigate firing musketry upon an Egyptian fire-ship, which had been set fire. The French Admiral-passing at this moment. fired a broadside into the fire-ship, which : sunk her ; This was a beautiful and interesting sight. Affairs wore a-hostile aspect. A broadside was now. im mediately expected from the Turkish. ship abreast of us : all hands to quarters,' Was' now the pipe ; every officer and man to his gun.' I retired-below to the cock-pit, where the surgeon and my brother assistant immediately joined me. It was well that we retired in time, for I had not been below more than five minutes, when the Genoa was in action; and•truly awful Was the cannonading which ensued. The breeze hat ing become rather light, the most of the French and Russian ships were now only slowly entering the harbour, while the Asia, Genoa, and, Amnon, were, in •the meantime, dreadfully exposed to the fire of many of the enemy's ships, which you may imagine,-coming from all points of the crescent which they formed, played upon us with great force. The ac tion had scarcely been commenced ten minutes, when several poor fellows were brought down to us with, severe wounds ; and so sudden was this call for our assistance, and so pressing were tile cries and supplications of the wounded, that it was at first difficult to judge whom to relieve. Operations, however, were indispensible, and we proceeded to perform our duty. The scene in the cockpit was, now dreadfulthe cries of the wounded and the dying, with the thundeting roar of our enemy's can non and our own, above our heads. Our gOod noble old Captain (Bathurst) wits brought down mor- tally wounded, his bowels protruding. The ease was hopeless. Ile behaved with the most heroic firmness; and while on the amputation table, re quested that the . Genoa would keep up the engage ment to the last. It was now about five P.M.; the action having commenced at three P.ar., and it still raged with dreadful fury. The Turks appeared to fight, if not with bravery, at least with desperation. The Genoa was keeping up a heavy lire upon her opponent, while she was at the saints time exposed to the fire of several large Turkish frigates. The Asia and 4Thion were similarly exposed; -while the rest of our squadron, with the French and Russians, were closely engaged with the forts and the rest of the enemy's frigates and fire-ships. At length, some of the enemy's ships having taken fire, blew up with a dreadful explosion, which produced gallant cheers from our crew. The tide of affairs • now seemed to turn in our favour; every explosion which took place renewed the cheering on the part of our men. It was not, however, till ten minute: after seven P.M. that this dreadful and destructive battle.terminated, as.you well know,. with the de struction of the Turkish and Egyptian fleets. " Such a general * action is not seen every day ; and it is not likely I may see an equal to it while 1 am in the service. The treachery of the enemy still required a strict 100k -Out, as they had-some-fire- . ships left, which, from the night being dark, were to be dreaded. More than once were we roused from an attempt to sleep that night by the sound of.the drum beating to quarters. This was in consequence of some of the Turkish ships which were on fire getting adrift, and passing close to some of our ships. The night of the 20th passed over ; I now found, that of my messmates, three had been killed s —three most excellent young men. Commodore Bathurst died like a hero, four hours after his wound, and with his dying breath recommended all his officers most highly to the Admiral, who came on board of us after the action, and who praised, in the highest terms, the conduct of the Genoa. Next morning, the 21st, I went on deck, and found we were much disabled, particularly in the stern, and . masts and rigging. The mizen-mast now fell over the side, and our men proceeded to repair our damages. A grand sight now presented itself; the Turks setting m fir o e st t l o y m b o l s e t w of ti t p h , eir lvi r t e h in a uirlin re g ships, adfule explosion, blazing, l i osiori,formg: in.. a very beautiful picture. The previous day, about a hundred Turkish and Egyptian ships had floated triumphantly in the port of Nava ria ; but now, bow different the scene l—most of them sunk, .burning, and blowing up; while • out own ships in a manner were .in a state of wreck. The Turkish ships which the Genoa and Asia had engaged were now adrift, fell aboard of each other, and soon after I saw them drift ashore complete wrecks. The carnage amongst the Turks must have been dreadful; for, upon exltmining their ships on the 21st, their decks were found literally covered with the dead and wounded. We now found that we had 27 in all killed on board the Genoa, which is a greater loss than any of our ships, or those of the French and Russians, had sustained. It is rather curious that not one in the Genoa lost a leg; our number of wounded was about 40, all of which, except two cases, are almost well. • Very few of the Turks hauled their colours - down, many 'of them burning and Mewing up wit}, their flagS flying. The number of Turks killed was computed to be 3,000, and wounded about 6,000. " After making the necessary repairs in the ships, we sailed for Malta on the 25th of October, our ships and those of our Allies cheering each other as we left the harbour, where we had shared. in such a glorious • victory. After refitting at Malta, we left that island on the 17th of November; and after a stormy passage, arrived in Plymouth this morning, the Genoa being the only ship home after the battle. " ram, &c.

A very serious charge of forgery has been made against two individuals of this town; one of them was brought in from Loughborough on Wednesday, but as the case has not been heard before the magistates, we decline saying any thing further respecting the matter this week.— Nottingham review Between two and three o'clock yesterday (Tuesday) morning, a dev'astating fire broke out at Mr. Simkins's, saddler, of Broad-street, which soon communicated to those apartments in York house situated immediately over, and forming the wing that was added only a few years since to that noble Hotel. The city was quickly alarm ed by the bell from St. Michael's church, and the bugle of the cavalry sounding throu g h the streets. The engines of the different Fire-offices arrived with all expedition, and if a sufficient supply of water could have been procured, would have proved more efficient; but notwithstanding every effort, the flames raged with unabated fury till the whole of the wing was consumed, With the wine-vaults counting-house, Simkins's shop and dwelling, and Knight's furniture warehouse. The Turk's-Head public-house was very much injured, as were some contiguous .buildings. The total damage is immense. Fortunately the fire was prevented by a party-wall from reaching the front b u ildi ngs o f York-house ; and alth oug h the elegant ball-room, with the apartments im mediately adjoining, is demolished, the coffee room and principal part of the hotel remain. If there can be any mitigation of anguish that Mr. Reilly feels under this terrible catastrophe, it must arise in a great measure from the sym pathy and prompt exertions of his fellow-citizens; by whom he is universally respected. Our ex cellent Mayor (G. H. Tuguell, Esq.), Was on the spot by five o'clock, and an effective body of the Police was stationed for guarding such part of the property, as could . be rescued from the de vouring element.

The premises which have thus fallen a prey to the destructive element, were about 100 feet in length, 60 in depth, and 70 , in height. The whole of the costly furnittne and effects in this extensive range was destroyed. - The loss of Mr. Dallimore, publican, of the Turlis.Head,'must be very considerable; nearly all 'his' furniture was destroyed ; and several pieceoistreng beer, containing from 2,000 to 3,ooo , Eallons each, which . were in his cellars, burst.„ A quantity of malt and - bops was alsd consumed. It is lamentable to add that Mr. D. was not insured. The exertions of ,the West of England Fire Company's engine were conspicuous in prevent ing the conflagration froM cOmunirizlting to the Turk's-Head public. house, as well as to the lath and plaster houses opposite, and but for which [he whole•of Broad-street on the opposite si:le of the way, as well as all the lower part from the Turk's Head to the Grammar-school, and the courts behind, must have fallen a . prey to tho flames. One of the men belonging to the Nliel: of England Office had his arm broken by a pare of the falling materials. Among the numerous individuals who were particularly useful and active on this melancholy occasion. was Mr. Edw. Davis, who, from his. professional knowledge as an architect, contri buted materially to prevent the spreading of the fire to the front buildings. . Two miscreants were apprehended whilst en gaged in plundering in this scene of distress and confusion, and have been committed by. the Mayor for trial; their names are John Fry and Anthony Stedworthy. Several accidents oc.- curred, .(we hope none of them - fatal.) Three men are now lying in the Hospital, one of whom is unable to speak. The front walls fell about half-past 12, and the whole of the wing in Broad street now presents one mass of ruins. It is remarkable that the most destructive fires which have of late - years occurred in this city, have been about the same period, either on or within a few days of Christmas Eve.----Balk Chronicle. CONVICTS UNDER SENTENCE OF DEATH. On Monday morning a reprieve arrived at Liorse monger-lane gaol for William Giles, who was con victed of coining at the last. Surrey assizes, and sen tencedto be hanged on Monday next, along with Joseph Swaine and John Thompson, for burglary, both of whom are left for execution. Since the conviction of Giles, owing to some peculiar circum stances connected with his case, the Sheriff of the county of Surrey, W. Crawford, Esq., has exerted himself in the unfortunate convict's behalf, and im mediately commenced an inquiry, the result of which has been transmitted to the Secretary of State, from whose office the reprieve for Giles was despatched to the gaol on the evening above men tioned.' While lying under sentence of death, Giles is described as having conducted himself with becoming resignation to the fate that was to have awaited him. A further investigation into all the eircumstr..nces attending the charge of which the above offender was convicted will, it is confidently reported, take place at the Home-office, when facts are likely to be disclosed which will show the abominable conspi— racy of certain parties to deprive the unfortunate man of his life. The other convicts, Swaine and Thompson, were also convicted at . the last Surrey Assizes, for breaking into the house of Mr. Sizer, a haberdasher, residing in Newington, and stealing property therein to the amount of between 400/. and 500/. They were also convicted on two other charges of a similar descrip tion, and two women with whom they cohabited being found guilty of receiving the property, knowing it to have been stolen, were sentenced to be trans ported for 14 years. Both the male prisoners have been very desperate characters. Swaine has been tried before, and capitally convicted at the Old Bailey, under Lord Ellenborough's act, for cutting and maiming. The sentence, however, owing to the intercession of his friends, who are respectable, was commuted, and he was sentenced to one year's im. prisonment in the House of Correction in Coldbath. fields. He has been frequently, since his liberation, committed as a reputed thief to Brixton. Thompson has also been concerned in various .burglariee and robberies, and was well-known to the polic e as one of the most expert " cracksme n " h in t e county of Surrey.
