PORTSEOCTR, FEB. 6.-7'hc Britannia, 120, Cap-
tain Goldsmith, was paid wages to-day at Spitbead. She
will hoist the flag of Admiral Dundas, red at the wizen, to-
morrow. She will not sail for the Mediterranean till the
wind, which is now westerly, changes to some other quar-
ter. Some supernumeraries were taken out to her to-day
by the Sprightly, as also a quantity of Rear-Admiral
Dundee's cabin furniture. The Gorgon, steam sloop, has
been taken into the steam basin; and the Hecht, steam
sloop, has been dismaoted. A letter from Gibraltar, dated
Dec. 27, informs us that Captain Giffard, of the Dragon,
steam frigate, with other officers of that ship, had gone
down, a few days before, in the Janus, steam
vessel, to Sale, to look at the place after its
bombardment by the French. They went on shore,
and were kept there five day. on account of the state
of the bar, which is represented as being a very dan-
gerous one. They picked up a quantity of concussion
or percussion shells, they could not tell which, as they did
not open them, several Moors hating been dangerously
wounded, and some killed, by trying to take the fuzee. out.
They received much civility from the Pacha, who escorted
them to a place (not named) which had never before been
profaned by the foot of a Cnristiau. About 2,000 soldiers
had to be taken as a guard, Christians being the particular
abomination of the natives. The batteries at Sale were
much knocked absut, but those at Rabat appeared to hare
been hardly fired on at all. They received tho survivors
(four in number) of the brig Violet at Tangiers, bringing
them to Gibraltar, and sent them to England by the last
packet. It was the opinion on board the Dragon that she
would not return to Malta fur some time, but would have
to go down to the Riff Coast to chastise the pirates.
The Hydra steam-sloop, Commander Belgrave, will em-
I bark Major-General Cathcart and stall, for the Cape of Good
Hope, to-morrow (this day), and sail with them for their
destination. She also takes out 50,000/. sterling for the
payment of the troops engaged in the Kaffir war. This
was put on board of her this afternoon by Mr. G. Allen,
acting master, commanding the steam-tender Sprightly,
and the treasury officers.
