At the Royal William Victualling-yard they were received on board the steam-tugs Confidence and Pike, which took the Wasp and- Arthur lighters in tow, and conveyed the whole to the Sound, where the troop were welcomed by the loud hurrahs of the crews and passengers of the Lady Elgin and Hi4oria . e migrant. ships, and other vessels lying at anchor, every arrangement having been previously made by Captain Smyth, Brigade-Major. The Ist Royals, who were in ex cellent health and spirits, were soon berthed on board the steam transport-ship Andes, which will probably leave early this morning direct for Gallipoli.

By letters dated from the Black Sea fleet off Varna, 4th inst., we learn that the day previous Admiral Dundas had made a general signal for a marine officer from each ship to repair on board the flag-ship, to copy a general order issued by Lieutenant-Colonel Pratt, commanding, and approved by the commander-in-chief, stating that it was hourly expected that it would be necessary that the Royal Marines of the fleet should be landed for the protection of the town of Varna, andthat in conse quence each man was to be provided with 60 rounds .of ammunition, the men to be dressed in coatees and fo raging-caps, carrying their jackets, a shirt, pair of stock ings, boots, &c., in their haversacks; officers to wear blue frock .coats, takinga shell-jacket and other necessaries with them. The order on promulgation was received with great. enthusiasm by officers and men, and the writer Atates , that all were in the highest state of discipline ready,- most anxious to oome within reach Of - the Angolans, adding, "If we manage to cross bayonets with our foes, there is no doubt we shall be able to give a pretty good account of them." served half-pay list, and the lattet taping eligible, , succeeds tells rank of Rear-Admiral Of-the Blue, and thereby re. linquishing his Captain's goad service pension: Retired Captain --John George Aplin (June 28, ins) . being senior to captain Keats, also obtains his promotion to the rank - of retired rear-admiral. ` • - Among_ the officers above 'enumerated ns not having. served the required period of time to render_them eligible for their active flag rank, is Sir Henry Leeke..—and his is, if anything, a.harder one "than that of the Eerier Hard:. . 11 4 4 *e..

Instead of 1,030, the complete number,• only 771 were found on the roll on the day after their arrival. This number has, however, since been increased by 186 new recruits, whilst the volun teers t o the line since the cotps has been in D oncas t er ,' a t present.amount only six. safar• as can be , ascertained, the whole number of those who have left this regiment for the army does not exceed 50, but several are not in atten dance whose absence is not satisfactorily accounted for. The men now onduty are trained twice a-day on the race course, about- a mile and a 'half from the town, and are; making geed' progress. The men receive regulatioa-rations of meat and .bread, like the soldiers of the line. The 4th West "York, at Leeds, is considerably short of its comple ment; and cannot assemble for -some months.

The impending war in Europe is tlie theme of general conversation, and great ' anxiety is felt lest the colonies may be in volved.in hostilities. The Melbourne press is clamour ing loudly for the formation of militia corps, and the Argus especially gives way to all sorts of gloomy Antici pations of rapine and murder on the part of the French or Russians'. 'The presi 'of New South Wales is more 'guarded and more moderate ; but it begins to express the general felling that, some' precaution ary measure should be taken in vievi , of a possible coup de main, 'either by' American priyateering expe ditions, or by,- a legitimate descente of a French squadron. Few of the colonists' of New South Wales are sufficiently acquainted with European politics to discern very clearly the signs of the times ; but it is patent to everybody who bestows any attention on passing events,. that in the event of war the English and French alliance is 'in great dan ger of being broken up ; and we look with jealous sus picion upon the movements of the French squadron in the Pacific. It is said that if the o verland" November mail, now nearly due, should bring a confirmation of the warlike newe, the Legislative Council will bp summoned again, with the view of getting a measure passed' to authorise the levy of a volunteer corps. The Govern ment are prepared `to carry such a measure into effect, immediately, and the pluck and patriotism of; the colo nists in ay` lie fully relied on. It is, however, confideritlf anticipated' that •the British 'Governinent will lose no time in strengthening the 'naval force in these seas. -The'Sydney Moking Ferdidy in its rnop . eyarip i l et publishes this morning an account of the 'revenue for 1853, the materials of which were specially furnished for the Harbinger's departure.

For the conveyance of troops, _horses, and c!ommissariat steres,-every good ship, steamer, or sailing vessel that is safe and sound is - seized upon bythe Government as they arrive home or become otherwise disengaged. But the diffi euityls'in..fitting. It-is impossible to _do ,everything . at ()nee; and inasmuch as there are more ships than docks, and most of- those transports require examination,_delay in times ef great pressure in our limited dock accommoda tion must ensue. So scarce is dock room at Liverpool that we believe one or two transports, among the: very first taken up at that port, are still waiting to be decked. But, as we have before remarked, all available steamers are caught hold of. The Harbinger,'of 1,000 tons, belong ingto the General Screw Company, just arrived from Aus tralia, has been employed to convey stores ; and the fine 1,800 ton screw-ship Hydaspes, belonging to the same com pany, that arrived from the Capa on Thursday, has also been taken into the service of the Government to convey troops. Of the efficient fleet of this company the Government have now the following in their pay Golden Fleece, 2500 tons, 300-horse power. Jason, 2500 tons, 300-horse power. Hydaspes, 1,800 tons, 240 horse power. Harbinger, 1000 tons, 180-horse power. And within the next eight weeks it is expected the ser vices of the 2,700 tons screw-ship Prince will be required.

The first - and. principal greund,was, thatthe finding of the jury upon the third Auestion submitted to them was contrary to thkeVideneel. The learned counsel went fully into the evidence give at the trial, with a view to show that WhenlVlr.Gye, of the "pqi of April, 1852, induced Miss Wagner. to elite into an agreement to sing at .Covent-ga.rden.Theatre, .11 must have knoWn that 'the agreeinecit Which . she ha made with Mr. Lumley on the 9th oflslovember, .1854. was still subsisting and_ binding .:upon : her. KnowL . ing• that circumstance, Mr. Gye, both by- his letter* and by a personal visit which he paid to Miss Wagner at -- Hainburg, induced ' her to violate the engagement into which she had entered. 'ln his letters he from time to-time, in the month of Mardi, 1852, threw out insinuations that Mr. Lumley would not :be able to open his ' theatre;and . fulfil , his part of the agreement ; and subseqbently„ on the sili Of April, .1852,' on hiS visit to Miss Wagner at Hamburg, he. offered her the sum of 2,0101. if she would sing at his theatre, although he knew that she had engaged to sing for a longer ,' period at Mr. Luinley'S" theatre' for the sum of 1;200/. only. Ile thus bribed Miss Wagner to break her con tract with Nfr. Lumley by thnoffer of nearly double the amount which she - was to receive :from:him. It was then proposed by. Miss ViTagner that Mr. Gye should gjve'her ari iiideinnity„aed this also was readily given by Mr. Gyato faCilitate the transaction. Tjie learnedCaunsel here read M. Wagner's letter,.which appeared in. the lllorning Post, but whi c h was proved at the trial to have been. in the handwriting of Mr. Gye, to show that, in the early part of March, - he (Mr. ' Gye) • represented 'to Miss Wagner that her contract with Mi. Lutnleywas not likely to be' carried (ink; and also an eitract from an afo - made by Mr. Gye, in which, in reference to this subject, he (Mr. Gye) statecr that, in. the month of March, .1854 Mr. Lkitnley was' arrested for the sum of 2 ,2751. 18s., -and :remained , in . Custody about. three 'days. • =He thenrea4 Mr. Gye's letter to Miss Wagner of the 9th of March, 1852,, in which Mr, Gye said, " There 'is only one thing wanting to render the progrananie perfect—it • is the•'nanie of MadeMoisell& Wagner. Is there any 1 possibility of thatl If you think so, write rue tw'ci lines li because there is still time." It was evident from that letter that Mr. Gye was Alvaro that at .that..4lllp the ' agreement with Mr..Luniley was a subsisting agreement. 'On thd 30th of March Mr. •GYe again wrote to . lllBB Wagner as . folio* ; 7 --. .. , . . .. `,`London, March.3o, 1&52.
