Royal Highness, proposed by the Emperor. Some other toasts were proposed in the course of the evening by the Duke of Newcastle and others of the guests honoured with an invitation to the banquet. THE SHAM BATTLE AT MARQUISE. All Boulogne was astir by five o'clock on Friday morn ing. The Emperor and the Prince Consort left the Hotel Brighton at six, in an open carriage drawn by four horses. The Emperor wore the undress uniform of a general of division, and the grand cordon of the Legion of Honour. Prince Albert wore the un dress uniform of a field-marshal, and the grand cordon of the Legion of Honour, conferred upon his Royal Highness by the late King, Louis Philippe. A second carriage conveyed his Grace the Duke of New castle (wearing the rich uniform of the Notts Yeomanry Corps), Lord Seaton, his Excellency M. Drouyn de Lhuys, his Excellency Marshal Valliant, and General the Duke of Montebello. Two other carriages con veyed General Sir C. Wetherell, General Bolin (chef d'etat major), Major-General the Hon. C. Grey, General Cotte, the Duke of Alva, Colonel Fleury, Lieui.-Colonel Reddulph, Suliman Pacha, and Captain de Ros and Captain du Plat in attendance upon Prince Albert. Two imperial chars-h-bane were occupied by naval officers of the royal yacht and squadron. and two others by the officers of the household of his Majesty. The splendid cortege arrived at Marquise about seven o'clock, where the whole of the party mounted the horses which which had been previously sent forward to meet them, and rode on a short distance out of the town to the ground where the operations were to commence. There wds nothing in the nature of a programthe of the proceedings to be obtained, everything connected with the manoeuvres having bee kept with the most jealous secrecy within the Severer 's own breast. The orders necessary to be given to the generals and com manding officers were conveyed to them separately. The following outline will, I believe, correctly repre sent the state of things, preparatory to the commence ment of hostilities. A foreign army had landed at Calais, which, as the etente cordiale precludes me from supposing it to have been an English army this time, I will suppose that the Russian fleet had left Helsingfors and Cronstadt, and landed a large Muscovite force in that port. The army of the Czar has not only succeeded in establishing a footing within the for tified town of Calais, but has also formed a series of encampments along the heights near the coast. The most advanced of this enemy's corps d'armee is ordered to attack Boulogne, probably with the view of holding it as " a material guarantee." The Emperor of the French has information of the move ments of the enemy, and takes the field this time as the protector of Boulogne. Commanding in person, he beings up an army corps of About 10,000 men from Equihen, a camp about five mass south of Boulogne, and takes up a position a short distance from Marquise, with the view of arresting the advance of the invading Cossacks. The Emperor's force Uvohac for the night in a strong position, the right of which rests upon the small village of Hidrequent, and has its left upon the hamlet of Ledquent. The main /lad from Calais to Boulogne runs through nearly the centre of the line. There are two roads which branch off from the main road, that on the right leading to Laadrethun, and on the left to Baz:nghen. The invading army occupies on the high ground, about a mile distant from the advanced posts of the Emperor, a position the right of which rests upon a small farm called the Farm of Blaccount, the left upon the village of Berries, and the centre upon the high road to Boulogne. The cavalry ald reserves are upon the low to the rear. Both armies had marched into the ground on the previous night, and all were bivouacing in their tents except the outposts, when the Emperor arrived to lead his troops t,o action, and when General Schramin arrived at the head of the Russian BouLoGNE, Sunday Evening.—The departure of Prince Albert took place at 11 o'clock at night, under circumstances of a most brilliant and picturesque cha racter. The quay was splendidly illuminated along its whole length by stars, globes, and other devices, and by coloured lampions placed at intervals in the street, from the houses cn one side up to the water's edge. At one point, within view of the Royal yacht, and about the centre of the quay, three enormous structures were placed across the street, outlining in coloured lamps the letters V. N. A., which persons of a recondite turn of mind declared to mean rive notre amitie, but which were with more reason supposed to indicate the initials of the Queen of England, the Emperor of France, and the Prince Consort. The Custom-house, opposite which the Prince embarked; was gaily illuminated along its entire façade, and the entrepot of the Douane, besides other devices, exhibited within an illuminated quatrefoil the initials of Napoleon, Eugenie, Victoria, and Albert, in the close proximity of this well-chosen architectural ornament. The broad quays, the bridges, and the jetty were densely crowded, and every window looking out upon the harbour was filled by sight seers, who had reason to congratulate themselves that the night was dark and calm, and extremely favourable to the effect of the pyrotechnic displays which accompanied the embar cation. The Imperial Guard again formed three sides of a square opposite the Royal yacht, which had not been removed from the berth she originally took up, and the streets leading to the Imperial hotel were again kept by two lines of French infantry. At 11 o'clock the drums of the Garde Imperiale announced the arrival of the Emperor and Prince, who drove along the quay in one of the Imperial c:irriages, escorted by a de taChment of the Cent-Gardes, every private soldier in which has the rank of a lieutenant in the French army. As soon as the Imperial carriage drove up, blue lights burst forth from every part of the Victoria and Albert, sailors being placed upon the peddle-boxes and along the line of deck, and in the rigging with lights, in such numbers that the outline of the vessel was as distinctly preserved as the cupola of St. Peter's at Rome'during the illumination of the dome. Excla mations of delight burst forth from the crowd, which was followed by a hearty cheer as the Emperor and the Prince, alighting from the carriage, walked together towards the gangway and went on board the Royal yacht. As soon as the Emperor and Prince stopped eon board the Victoria and Albert the event was announced by a display so startling and unexpected that " The boldest held his breath for a time." Rockets of great size and power tore up from the hold of the Royal yacht with a terrible noise and irresistible force, and, bursting into coloured lights, illumined every object along the quay and harbour. So alarm ing was the noise made by the rockets, as in the dark ness of the night they appeared to emerge from some yawning infernal region at the foot of the spectators, that a group of Boulogne poissardes in the crowd — mothers, daughters, and children—flung themselves at the feet of the Imperial Guard, and, screaming in an agony of terror, lay with their faces on the ground, en deavouring to shield from their eyes a sight too terrible to bear. Others plunged madly among the crowd, and seemed only bent upon escaping from the spot. A pause then took place, during which the Emperor and Prince said a few parting words upon the deck of the Royal yacht. They then cordially shook hands, and the Emperor, after again saluting the Prince and wishing him a pleasant voyage, took his way to the gangway and stepped upon shore. Again the rockets whizzed and rushed high into the air, and again breaking into light and colour light up the vessels in the harbour and countless faces in the streets and at the windows. Cheers and murmurs of delight again burst forth, the Prince, accompanied by the Duke of New castle and his suite, and standing upon the gallery of the yacht, bowed his acknowledgments to the crowd and his last adieus to his Imperial host. The paddle' wheels of the steamer, slowly revolving, then began to hear away the Prince from the scene of so many festivi ties and rejoicings, solemnii-ed in honour of the friendly dliance between the two countries. Tile Emperor drove off with his staff and escort, and again blue lights lit up time Royal yacht from stein to stern, and were reflected in the water with a clearness arid brilliancy that made the harbour appear iike a broad lake of liquid silver. 'rime crowd followed the steamer, which slowly moved out of the harbour. As the Royal yacht gained time entrance to the harbour a salute o► 21 guns from brass pieces of large calibre was fired, which reverberated among the hills and shook the houses of the lower town. As soon as the Victoria and Albert had got away she was followed by the Black Eagle, which in turn was fel. lowed by the Vivid, the only three vessels of the Royal escort that had entered the harbour. When the Victoria and Albert had cleared the jetty, which was densely crowded, she was seen to great advantage, every cabin window being strongly illuminated. Her paddle-wheels ceased to revolve for a minute or two, and after another blaze of blue lights, which burnt upon deck and thrown above the rigging, were reflected in every ripple of the sea, she continued her course towards Portsmouth, fol. lowed by her escort of steamers, and was soon lost in the darkness of night. The Royal yacht was piloted out of the harbour by C iptain Solithett,, and was followed by the Black Eagle and Vivid. The Hornet, Malacca, and Salamander also weighed anchor and followed the yacht, at a very respect ful distance. Before leaving the harbour, the Prince presented to the captaiu of the port a very valuable gold watch and chain. THE FAREWELL IMPERIAL BANQUET. On the evening of Friday the grand banquet was given by the Emperor, on a scale of more than usual splendour. The large sane a manger of the Imperial Hotel presented a most brilliant and truly regal appearance as the illus trious guests were seated at dinner. The head table was in the form of a semi-circle, the other extending along the whole length of the room. The service was of the most beautiful Sevres china and silver. Rich epergnes of gold, and vases of Sevres china, filled with the most exquisite flowers, adorned the tables. Two large pyra mids of fruit, each bearing on its top the most superb of pineapples, were certainly marvellous productions of art. An interesting incident attaches to these pine apples, the finest which, I believe, have ever yet been produced. They were grown at Trentham, the seat of the Duchess of Sutherland, and were presented through the world-famed Alexis Soyer to his Imperial Majesty. The largest of the pines weighed 9 lbs. 8 ounces, and the smaller one 8 lbs. 6 ounces ; they measured more than a yard from the top of the crown to the stem, and were 26 and 27 metres in circumference. They were most handsomely grown, perfect in their form, and com pletely put into the shade some pines produced at Ver sailles and sent to the Imperial table. The panels and decorations of the room were of the dark Imperial green, with rich damask furniture for the windows of the same colour. The Emperor, with the Prince on his right hand, and Colonel Grey on his left, were seated at the centre of the table. Among the guests were his Grace the Duke of Newcastle, their Excellencies M. Drouyn de Lhuys and Marshal Vaillaet, Sulituan Pacha, Gen. Rolin, Gen. Wetherall, Captain Du Plat, and others, the company numbering altogether about 50 persons. During the dessert his Imperial Majesty, in proposing the health of our Queen, said : "J'ai l'honneur de proposer un toast a l'honneur de notre allie tree lntime sa gracieuse Majesty la Reins d'Angleterre." Prince Albert next proposed the health of the Emperor, and, gracefully alluding to the good feel ing which existed between the two countries, expressed the great gratification which he had derived front his visit. "L a gaacieuse r6ception (said the Prince) quo j'ai recu dans votre empire ne sera jamais effacd de ma m6moire ; je ne doutais nullement de cello do votre l‘lajeste Imp6riale, mais l'enthou,iasme du peuple fran cais is mon Card a beaucoup surpass 6 mon attente. Vivons dans l'espoir que votre Majesto nous fern bientot In Alai it de visiter les cotes d'Albion, ou le peuple anglais et sa INiajest6 la Reins d' A ngleterre seront, je sole sur, charm's de recevoir la visite de votre Majest6 Impriale.” The Emperor, with much animation, referred to the "hello alliance, and most eloquently expressed his earnest hope— " Que sous les chapeaux de la France et d'Angleterre qui torment I'arc en ciel de la libert6 le joug du despote sera bientot ann6anti.” The eloquently expressed and beautifully'ico n c e i ve d sentiment called forth a burst of applause from the corn. pany, which not even the strictest court etiquette could r estrain. The health of the Em p ress was p ro p osed, I am in„ formed, by Prince Albert, and afterwards that of his forces. Long lines of military equipages and waggons, laden with provender for horses, wood for the bivouac fires, ambulance waggons, and piles of litters for the convey. ance of the wounded from the scene of action ; the small, the country, groups of soldiers round the rudel y -con. white, Arab-looking t e nts scattered far and wide over structed fire-places, and the smoke of the bivouac fires by the roadside, piles upon piles of hay std straw, and sacks upon sacks of grain, could not fail to convey to the mind of the traveller the notion that he was in the neighbourhood of a spot where some great action was imminent ; and as he looked with astonishment upon the vast materiel required for the use and subsistence of a small army for a day, he would be enabled to appre ciate to a very billing extent the difficulties with which a commissariat is required to contend in an enemy's country, and during a protracted war. lininediately on the Emperor and the Prince arriving upon the ground, the rappel was beat and the troops were shortly under arms. General Schramm commenced the action with some artillery on his left. A feint at tack was immediately made by the Emperor, with the view of turning the enemy's left. The right wing of the Emperor engaged in this attack fell back upon the ap proach of a large force of the Cossacks. Having drawn the enemy to some extent horn their position, and suc ceeded in diverting their attention from his left wing, the Emperor rapidly threw forward his right wing, and, supported by artillery, caused the Russians to fall back to their first positions. The Emperor's left having re formed, pushed forward with the whole wing, and after an ineffectual struggle, supported by two well served batteries of artillery, the Cossacks retired upon the wood of Inglevent. The attempt to dislodge the enemy from this position was a long and protracted one, and artillery played in and around the wood in excellent style. The enemy's left, which extended beyond the wood, was ultimately turned by a part of the Emperor's cavalry— the regiment of " Guides." General Count de Schramm bravely but unavailingly resisted the opposing force, and with much exertion and great ability succeeded in accomplishing that most difficult and dangerous of move ments, changing a front in the face of an attacking and superior farce, and successfully 'resisted for a time this flank movement of the Emperor. Some reserves of the French were now brought up, which compelled the Cossacks to fall still further back in the direction of Calais, near the mill of Hervelinghen, and towards some rising ground called Mont Couple. While the ny of were dragoons. retiring, a charge was made by a regi mentneiAs the c ava l ry a d van ced, some guns e of the enemy poured in a shower of grape, and the in fantry formed square, w ith the artillery inside, volley y of mu s k e t r y i n to the squadrons, who; and sent e i r m emlie a charging diatel in considerable confusion, probably in order to show the effect of the warm and unexpected resistance which they had met from the artillery of the enemy. As their advance was made in confusion, .so their retirement was effected in perfect disorder, which was by no means improved by a parting salute from the a rtillery, and a volley from the i n f antry . With this charge finished the active military proceed twhiewßreoman legions embarked on proceed ings of the day, the enemy's rear resting very near Wis. esatsgaaatneidnd'st Cassibelanus. Had the Ern sant, upon a small port on the coast now completely Caesar's camp was formed, he would have driven the batpilneioedrci whence o k rr e e d e ( n ip p tei dl i li y ti tioo t ( ii h ns his t d.vance, with the mag he spared his foe for 11 Russian aniii lit y " o L f a e ogpraeradts warrior, o t r l:e sea ; b ut, an other occasion. The movements of th e troops were, i n most instances, effected in admirable order, and their picturesque appearance, a s they occupied many of their positions, was much admired. The whole spectacle, as well as the manoeuvres, was brilliant and effective in the extreme. The manoeuvres extended over a distance of three or four miles, and of course embrac e d an i n fi n it e I number of details into which it is impossible to enter. It may, however, be stated, that in the progress of them a complete illustration was given, not only of those difficult flanking movements by which the fate of battles is so frequeutly decided, but also of the mode of handling French artillery, infantry, and cavalry in advance or retreat. The artiller y arm of the service is ev idently a favourite one with the Emperor, and h e use d it to whichnFriday guns he has taken such pains to introduce give the field batteries of the French army a terrible power, which it did not fail to show that }t knew well how to use. Wherever a favourable position offered itself there the guns were pushed forward with rapid energy and the firing was admirably sustained. Great tact was also shown in the selection of sheltered yet commanding spots whence to direct a cannonade, and in the attack or de ' fence of two hotly contested positions, one a wood and the other a windmill, this was particularly conspicuous. The guns, though considerably heavier than our own, are drawn by the same number of horses, a result which is probably due to their being mounted on carriages with larger wheels. This exposes them more to the enemy's \ shot, and perhaps has other disadvantages, but the range of the Minie rifle now renders increased weight of metal a 'natter of very great impoilance. In the French Ar• tillery service, as in ours, no attempt seems hitherto to have been made to introduce the use of springs, at least for the waggons. There seems no satisfactory reason why an improvement of the kind should not be adopted, and it appears to be quite as much wanted in their army as in ours, for, though the ground in front of Marquise is not so rough and broken as it was at Chobham, the gunners appeared to be quite as much jolted in their seats. The guns were all fired on Friday by percus sion, and, though the loading was performed with great rapidity, there was not that excessive haste which, in our service, with the Horse Artillery especially, some times leads to accidents. Another point about this arm of the French service was the admirable and steady way in which the horses did their work. They wentat an excellent pace when requisite, were not in too high condition for the field, and appeared to be strong and hardy animals, with the requisite amount of roughness about them to stand fatigue and exposure well. With the artillery the infantry fairly divided the honours and labours of the operations on Friday. A large proportion of the army encamped in this neigh bourhood consists of young conscripts who have hardly yet completed their training ; but the manner in which the various manoeuvres were performed by the troops engaged was beyond praise, What we most of all ad mired was the rapidity with which everything was done. There was much more running at full speed to take up position than would have been attempted in our ser vice, and, though an English spectator would miss the extraordinary precision with which movements are effected by the troops of his own country, on the other hand the very absence of this might fairly be regarded as arising from the military instincts of the French soldier, enabling him in some degree to dispense with the more pedantic formalities of his profession. It was a flue sight to ree the dense masses of columns in which the Emperor threw forward his battalions, and the im- • petuosity with which they made their advance, now deploying rapidly into line and throwing out skirmishers, now barely visible behind the shelter of some friendly height, against which the enemy's guns thundered. The fusillade of musketry was hotly and well sustained by both sides at all the more warmly-disputed positions. Sometimes volleys were exchanged at close quarters ; sometimes a steady rattle of file-firing was kept up ; and, again, the din of mimic battle dwindled down to an occasional dropping shot. There was another cir cumstance which, perhaps, it may be interesting to notice. Hitherto the French army has formed its line three deep, like all other continental services, the first two ranks to fire and the last to load ; whereas with us the practice has always been to form line two deep, each line holding and firing for itself. On Thurs day it was observed that the battalions under the Em peror's command—and probably it was the same with General Schramm's corps also—were drawn up two deep. Technical and insignificant:as it mayiappear, this change is really one of great importance in military tactics. The system of manoeuvring in dense columns and deep lines, besides exposing an army to heavy loss of life under fire, accustoms the men to expect to be closely backed up in the hour of peril, and prevents the general from extending bis front so as to have the full benefit of his superior numbers. The reputation of the British infantry, wherever it has fought, is largely due to an appreciation of these strategical considerations ; that of the French, on the contrary, has been achieved in disregard of it, and upon entirely different grounds. But from the alteration noticed on Friday they ap pear to be no longer insensible to the advantages of our system, and prepared already, in some re spects, to adopt. it. In their attachment to move ments executed in close column they still perse vere, and it formed one of the most prominent cha racteristics .of the manner in which his corps was handled by the Emperor. The immense bodies of troops kept by the great military Powers of the Conti nent probably render it necessary to manoeuvre in solid masses, for there are limits within which a field of battle must be confined, and within those limits the saying of the first Napoleon is first accepted—" that victory is on the tae of the strongest battalions." A careful and candid observation, however, of the infantry evolutions on Friday suggests strong doubts whether, with any number of men to spare, that frequent resort to the use of dense coluiens in face of an enemy is not attended with great danger. Advancing triumphantly it may answer very well, but in retreat heavy loss of life leads quickly to confusion, that again to panic, and total route follows. The French army, as it showed itself on Friday, is a splendid 'force, worthy in its effective ness of the great nation whose sword and shield it is. The infantry especially appeared to great advantage ; and, take it altogether, probably there is no body of sol in the world so well organised as the Chasseurs do Vin cennes. It may, however, be permitted to Englishmen who witnessed the sham fight to retain unabated confi dence in the precise school of discipline in which their own soldiers are trained ; for without such a system it would appear extremely difficult to execute those deli. cate movements in the face of an enemy upon which the fate of battles so frequently turns, There were two regiments of Lancers and two of dra goons on the ground yesterday. The Lancers were with Schramm's corps, and the dragoons with the Emperor. One or two charges were made in the course of the ma noeuvres, but as a general rule this arm of the service was not much used, though the face of the country was very favourable. Perhaps it is beginning to be felt in France that, with Minie rifles having an effective rang, of 800 yards, and with the certainty that great improve ments must shortly be introduced into the whole system of our field artillery, the occasions are likely to be more rare, than formerly on which cavalry can be brought for ward with advantage. For show purposes they will probably be used as long as men view with an admira tion akin to Othello's " the big wars that make ambi tion virtue." There are regiments in the French army better horsed than some, at least, of those which were engaged yesterday, but, speaking generally, it was wonderful to notice how they were supplied in this respect. The horses are not so large nor powerful as ours, but they seem hardy and active, and their strength is not unfairly taxed by mounting them with gigantic troopers such as Prince Albert's order lies—fine animals themselves to look at, and to be made the most of, but not intended to be carried by any quadruped except, perhaps, an elephant or'dromedary. The cool agreeable character of the weather added greatly to the enjoyment with which the whole spectacle was witnessed. At half-past 11 o'clock it was all over ; and, while the Emperor conducted his illustrious guest to breakfast, prepared under tents in the hollow, the troops, with that alacrity which distinguishes French soldiers, lighted small fires of brushwood, had the vivandieres' supplies brought into requisition, and effectually re freshed themselves after the labours of the morning, This was certainly one of the most instructive part of the day's proceedings, nor was it lessso, on the return home to see the quick way in which they came back to their respective positions before Marquise and prepared to bivouack for the night. It is very difficult for English men, who have derived their ideas of military evolutions from field-days in the Parks, with a few thousand men at the most, to appreciate such a spectacle as that of yes terday without being present ; but the characteristics of it arise mainly from two causes,—first, from the open nature of the country here, which renders the movements of large masses of troops comparatively easy ; secondly, from the scale upon which armies, not only in France, but all over the continent, are maintained. The total number of troops on the field was about 20,000, and consisted of two corps d'armee. There were two regiments of Dragoons, two of Lancers and one of the Guides for the cavalry, six regiments of the light and I line infantry, several battalions of chesseurs, some en- I I gineers, and four batteri e s of artiller y . The Emperor rode a splendid charger, one of his fa vourites, " Ajax ;" Prince Albert rode also afine looking horse, and one which is the special favourite of the Prince ; he is nineteen years old, but is still full of activity, and is capable of much endurance. Prince Albert expressed a wish to visit the opposing forces, and the Emperor immediately directed Edgar Ney, a de scendant of the old marshal, to accompany the Prince and act as his guide, having first introduced the young officer to the Prince Consort. The Prince was received by General Count de Schramm, who explained to him the plan of his operations. After remaining for some time among the enemy, ids Royal Highness returned to t the Emperor's camp . • The Horse Guar ds in attendance as orderlies upon the Prince were conspicuous among 1 all mounted personages; and Corpoi al Sutton, wh o i s in charge of the three squadrons of two men each, and ' who has received the title of commander-in-chief of the British forces in France, preserved a lofty and dignified b ear i n g, as, towering over the heads of all his corn - + peers, he watched with much compl acency the pro: i ceedings of the day. During the whole of Friday the port and harb our ex I hibited an unus ua ll y gay appearance . The Victoria and Albert, the Black Eagle, and the Vivid dressed colours, and the example was followed by the Hornet, Malacca, and Salamander in the roads, where the English ensign and the French tricolour were nailed together to the same mast. An unusually large number of vessels in the harbour also exhibited all their signal and other flags, and the tricolour was hung out at numerous windows along the quay. About noon the scene became still more animated by the arrival of the Commercial Steam-packet Company's steamer the City of Paris, Captain Tune, which arrived from London with 150 passengers. The steamer was gaily decorated with flags, and fired a salute on entering the harbour in honour of the visit of Prince Albert. BOIILOGNE, Su r, Noorr. On Saturday the Emperor proceeded on foot to visit the hospital at St. Louis, followed only by a few gene rals, and was loudly cheered in his progress. The Emperor has just started for the camp at Floni vault, followed by a numerous and brilliant staff, to be present at high mass. A monster special train has just arrived from Paris with excursionists, who have seized every vehicle in the place and have started off for the camp. It is reported that the Emperor will start in a f ew days to Biaritz, to bring home the Empress. THE WAR. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The St. Vincent, 101, was towed into Portsmouth harbour on Saturday morning, and will resume her former position as guardship of the ordinary. Her sick have been removed. ,Touching the cholera. From all we gather it is very manifest that this sad scourge, if taken in time, is surely within human means ;if not, death is certain. It has been proved more particularly in this ship, that ali who sought medical advice at the commencement of the at tack were saved, whilst those who neglected themselves, or took what they fancied, assuredly died. Now this fact cannot be too sufficiently made public, particularly in the naval service ; and an order should be given to all warrant and petty officers to watch the earliest symp toms, which commence with sickness, etc. Many a hundred valuable lives may be thus saved aboard and ashore. The frigate Meander, 44, Capt. Baillie, sailed on Satur day from Plymouth, to complete her crew at Greenock. The Melampus is lying off Plymouth dockyard, en route to Glasgow, for steam machinery. Her crew have been kept at ball cartridge practice very frequently of late, at a mark from the dockyard ship battery erected for such purposes. The Sp 6, paddle-sloop, Captain Clifford, arrived at Portsmouth on Saturday night, and steamed into har bour yesterday morning. Captain Clifford, we are very happy to report, is doing well, and it is hoped will escape the amputation of his legs. He has the best attention of the medical staff of the Royal Naval Hospital at Haslar, and was going on very favourably last night. On Saturday at nine a.m., the Horatio, 24-gun steam frigate, Commander Robert Jenner, arrived at the Great Nore from Hull. Orders have been received to cleanse and whitewash the hospital hulks Endymion and Andromeda, lying in Plymouth Sound, and recently used for the troops and crew of the Lord Auckland, so as to be ready to receive the crews of any of the ships returning from the Baltic or Black Seas. An able seaman belonging to the Sybille, in a letter dated Batavia, July 8, and received at Plymouth last week, says, " The Winchester has taken a Russian frigate and two corvettes in the north of China." The merchant barque Queen, Captain Hengell, from Saguenay for London, was off Plymouth on the sth inst. ; all well. The Mangerton, hired transport, No. 17, arrived at Portsmouth on Saturday afternoon to embark stores, &c., for the Black Sea. The Vifredo, screw steamer transport, Castello Com mander, arrived at Portsmouth from the Thames yester day, and went into harbour. She will embark troops in a day or two for the Black Sea. On ber passage to Portsmouth she struck the 0 wers, although in charge of a Portsmouth branch pilot, and it may be necessary to dock her ; if so, the embarkation of her troops will be necessarily delayed a little. APPOINTMENTS. Surgeons—James Carmichael, M.D. (1835), to the Bellerophon, 78, on the Mediterranean station, and serving in the Black Sea ; Thomas S.

Otter (1844), who served for several years in the Comet, steam-vessel, in protecting the fisheries on the west coast of Scotland, on the decla ration of war with Russia was ordered to Woolwich to have his crew turned over to the Alban, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, and to proceed to the Baltic to lay down buoys and make surveys, to guide the fleet in the diffi cult navigation of that sea, which, service he performed 4o efficiently as to meet with the entire approbation of Vice-Admiral Sir Charles Napier, Commander-in-Chief of the fleet, who recommended his promotion in the strongest terms to the Admiralty. Their lordships have accordingly promoted Commander Henry C. Otter to the rank of Captain, for his valuable services. THE RUSSIAN PRISONERS.--ARRIVAL OF THE ROYAL WILLIAM. An increase in the number of the pensioner guards for the Devonshire has been ordered. The paymaster and the surgeon of this ship have now nearly 1,400 souls under their charge. Several cases of cholera have broken out amongst the prisoners since being put on board, some of which have proved fatal. An assistant surgeon has been sent on board the Benbow. It is re ported there are to be at least two surgeons on board each ship, to give relief to each other, as the present gentlemen are occupied day and night incessantly at tending on the sick. It is also stated that the paymaster of the Devonshire, who is now victualling all the prisoners and guards in both ships, is to have a clerk's assistant to assist him. The guards for the Benbow were sent from the Waterloo (Marines), and previous to Lieutenant Everest taking up his commission, Lieutenant S, T. Dickens was in command pro tem, from the Waterloo. Captain Superintendent John J. Tucker entertained a select company of the port officers to dinner on Saturday last. This gallant officer has been unremitting in his atten tions (as captain superintendent) to the fitting up of the prison ships with every possible convenience and comfort, particularly for the hospital department. A number of framed bed-berths were made immediately the increase of sickness was found to take place. The watt of an in terpreter has been much felt by the medical officer and the commander ; and negotiations are going on between the Coinmander-in-Chief here and the Admiralty, for the appointment of Mr. Potts, a native of this place, to be appointed and to reside on board the Devonshire, this gentleman having hitherto only acted as an interpreter at the request of a friend here in the civil charge of the prisoners. All the officers, 28 in number, with 5 ladies, wives of officers, are located on shore, and they appear very happy. They were visited yesterday by two gen tlemen (brothers), natives of the islands of Aland. The officers appear to be a very gentlemenly set of fellows. The commissioned cadets are very fine young men, and are highly-educated in their profession. On Satiirday evening, about 7 o'clock, a man-of-war, being towed by a Government steamer, were observed approaching the Plymouth Breakwater. They turned out to ,tsthha b ehe e yi pp t d h roß eoinypDauntlesssae:dwahnWilliam,ec rheo tr h s t en e c a ßta m hpo e- Royal sa e jlo s . s uN e Knv l di i Sound. il o iga w caTmo i nh n i :ha g byal ed3w h , e eaaw r rrnerod , I: linviaaaese at tn Ma jesty's e r. s o3 t mo y from the Baltic with Russian prisoners.

MOSES and SO' have had the pleasure of suhmitting to their patron , and the public, the Paletot which they have just introduced possesses a most prominent place ; it is tic article of Attire required for the season by ail classes. and is a pioneer of the richest and most novel st , h.s for the ensuing Autumn in the preparation ~ f which E. MOSES and Son are uniting all the forces of Commerce, Skill, Experience, and Capital. This Paleiot is the most ingeniously contrived garment which has been inven• cd, and is the resuP of mathematical obs rya tion and great experience in the art of designing and Cutting Dress. It has been the object of E. Moses and Son to produce a paragon in this description of Attire, which thcv have placed within the reach of all classes, its price being 25s This article may be worn as Coat or Overcoat, and it is the most gentlemanly and the most comfort able garment ever presented.

THE VALOROUS. The crew of the Valorous are having 10 days' leave'Of absence granted them, watch and watch, while she is under repair. Mr. R. Fletcher Broadwick, late mate of this ship, received his promotion to a lieutenancy on Friday last, bearing date from the 2d September. Ri g brother officers appeared far more delighted than himself. He has during his service in this ship en deared himself to the blue jackets, by general conduct towards them as seamen, and to his officers by his supe. rior talent, which he has obtained by a long series of study. On leaving this ship all hands regretted he was not called into immediate service, as he would have no trouble to beat up volunteers to man a frigate, so thoroughly is he known and beloved by the blue jackets. He leaves his ship with the hearty good wishes of every officer and man. The crew of the Janus shift over to the Algiers to• day. The Janus will be temporarily manned from the flag-ship. ANOTHER SCREW MAN-OF-WAR. The works in the Pembroke establishment are being carried on with considerable energy. Great alterations are making on the Repulse line-of-battle ship, to fit her with the steam screw. For this purpose her after-frame timbers are being removed, and her shape at that part considerably altered, to admit the screw to have its p:oper influence. By this arrangement there will be no necessity of lengthening her midships, as will be the case with the Victoria. THE AUSTRALIA AND MEDWAY TRANS. PORTS. from Let t te h ;sew° mi er p e a r n e i c e e s iv of ed ß y o e y s a te l r A da r y til a l e a r t y e dwChoicnhs no in the Au s t ra li a and in the Medway, s t ea m-transports, from Wo o l w i c h , for service at the seat of war in the t o i cee p d l ect e t East. The Australia arrived at Constantinople, with Captains Young and Irving's companies of the Royal Artillery, in excellent health, and they had received orders to proceed to join the forces about to attack Sebastopol. The intelligence from Captain Freese'S company, 12th battalion, and a detachment of Major Rowan's company, who went in the Medway steam transport vessel, and left Woolwich in the same week as the Australia for the seat of war, is very sad, as, on the arrival of that vessel at Constantinople, there were only one officer, two non-oomnaissioned officers, and thirty gunners effective for duty ; all the others were on the sick list, or had died from cholera, many of them hay ing been attacked, and several fatal cases occurred on the passage between Gibraltar and Malta. THE ROYAL FLOTILLA. PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 9. This morning, about twelve o'clock. the Malacca, 16, Captain Farquhar, the Hornet, 14, Commander F. A. Campbell, and the Salamander, 6, paddle-sloop, Com. mander Priest, forming the armed flotilla in attendauce upon the Prince Consort and staff in the Victoria and Albert, Black Eagle, and Vivid, steam-yachts, during the visit to Boulogne, returned to this port, having pre viously been off Osborne, saluted, [ and been dismissed by the senior o ffi cer, Captain the Hon. Joseph Denman. It is not true (as was stated by sundry prints last week) that this armed squadron were two days behind the Royal yacht on their arrival at Boulogne. They were only twelve hours behind. They remain at Spithead with the transport No. 17, which arrived this day from the Thames for Turkey, and the revenue cruiser Argus. The Hornet could not keep steam up sufficiently, and was equalled by the old paddle-sloop Salamander in the run out. THE 46th FOR THE EAST. It was rumoured at Windsor last night that the Robert Lowe, one of the largest of the fine fleet of screw steamers engaged in the Australian trade, has been char tered for the conveyance of the 46th Regiment, and other troops, to the seat of war in the East; and the service companies are expected to march from the Sheet-street barracks, under the command of Colonel Garrett, to the port of embarkation, in the course of a few days. They' will form a corps of 900 strong, when they join the divi sion already sent out, which consists of rather more than 250, so that the actual number of men and officers now about to sail in the Robert Lowe will be some thing under 700. The depot companies, which, when augmented to their full strength, will form a .body of 500 efficient men, go to Winchester. The 46th will be relieved at Windsor by the 18th (Royal Irish), under the command of Colonel Reignolds. The strength of the 18th has been so much reduced by foreign service that detachments from other regiments will have to be added, in order to take the usual garrison duties. A district paymaster has been appointed—Captain Dalgetty. TROOPS FOR INDIA. The troops for Bombay from Chatham garrison, for the ship Earl of Balcarres, marched on Saturday morn ing to Strood, and thence proceeded by railway to Gravesend. The bagpipes of the Highlanders and the drums and fifes of the provisional battalion played them out to the railway station ; they consisted of the following corps :-50 men, 64th toot ; 21 men, ' 78th Highlanders ; 34 men, 83d ; and 80 men, 10th Hussars, under comainnd of Captain William Knox Orme, 10th Foot, with the under-named officers— En sign Henry Turner, 64th ; Ensign Graham Mylne, 83d; Cornet Charles Uniacke, and Cornet William Mayne, 10th Hussars; and Dr. O'Neile, 78th Highlanders. The above ship was reported yesterday by the medical gen tlemen that the cholera had entirely disappeared, sad the crew progressing favourably to a healthy condition. Immediately the telegraphic message arrived at the garrison offioe the commandant, Colonel W. H. Eden, started for Gravesend, and made the necessary inspec tion of the ship. The commandant returned to the garrison, and inspected the troops on the general parade ground of the barracks at two o'clock in the afternoon. MISCELLANEOUS. It is in contemplation to erect a new set of barracks at Millbay, for the accommodation of the marines, ren dered necessary by the augmentation of this division of the corps, which it is understood will permanently num ber 1,600 men. The present barracks at Stonehonse holds 600 men ; during peace more than treble that numher!might have to be provided for. On Thursday last, Messrs. Clift and Drew, contra°. tors of Plymouth, were informed by the Ordnance Board that their tender for constructing a basin and au embankment at Bull Point Powder Magazine for 46,472/. had been accepted. The works are to be nom• menced forthwith. The Enrolled Pensioners for the Western district as semble for exercise, &c., at the Long Room, Stonehouse, this day (Monday), the 11th Sept., under the command of Lieut.-Colonel Trevor, Lieut.-Colonel Mountstevin, and Major Russell. THE MILITIA.—The Pembroke Dockyard Battalion have received their new uniform and been inspected by Lieutenant-Colonel Laing. The brigade consists alto gether of six companies of artillery, numbering about 700 rank and file. They went through a variety of evolu tions and manoeuvres, all of which were executed with rapidity and precision. Lieutenant-Colonel Laing, and also Majors Child and Bonniwill, expressed their ex treme satisfaction. FALMOUTH, Sunday.—A frigate, supporta to be the Inconstant, passed Falmouth yesterday at noon, from Plymouth for Cork. The Transport, No. 18, was off here on Friday bound eastward. THE LATE COURTS-MARTIAL. Perry WlliD ar S e Oli Sunday about , to Np petition g t i h t t.T i o —n her he Majesty friendsof Lieutenant the Queen, praying that she may be graciously pleased to to toorbe order the entire proceedings of the late courts-martial sub mitted to the consideration of the judges of the land, and that her Majesty will then give her final and impartial decision on their view of the merits of the case. When the sentence of dismissal was first communicated to Greer, he was deeply affected, and immediately left the barracks for the White Hart Hotel, to which place be ordered his baggage to be sent. Perry's baggage re mained until Friday last, when he visited the barracks for the last time, and superintended the removal of the effects. The Gazette announcement, which reached here yesterday morning, took every one by surprise, as it was thought the two vacant lieutenancies would have been purchased by the two oldest ensigns ; but there are obvious reasons why the usual course should have been departed from in the present instance, by the appoint ment cf two lieutenants from other regiments. Lieut. Connell aril Lieut. the Hon. Mr. Herbert (the brother of the Earl of Carnarvon) have, in all probability, passed through the ordeal of ' idrawing" and bed-smashingt and will be free from such annoyances in the 46th. The ensigns of the 46th will also be kept as they were; not one of thorn will get a step for the present. There is nothing rema r k a bl e i n Mr. Connell going f ro m the 3d West Indi a R egiment to a regiment of the line ; II" some surprise h as b een expressed at the Hon.

An incident occurred here this afternoon (Sunday) which is calculated to lead to a serious rupture between' the inhabitants of Windsor and the officers of the 46tia Regiment, in consequence of an illegal and unwarraut able arrest of one of the townspeople by Major Max well and Adjutant WAlister tot' the above regiment. young in - a ma n The fasts are these.
