NAVAL.

PORTSMOUTH, SETT. 2.—The London, 90, Captain
Charles Eden, exiled this morning from Spithead to join
Rear-Admiral Curry's Channel squadron. The Me taws,
20, Captain Wellesley, also sailed from Spithead hot night
for Plymouth, to be paid off. The weather has bomewhat
moderalcd 0,-day, although we have bad a sun-iderable
quantity of wind and rain. Provisions, in coarecvienee of
the unfavourable character of the reason, have conddtrdbly
advanced in price, bread having risen today.

Tnr: SMOKE NUISANCE.—We had an opportunity
of witnessing, a few days since, the operation of Mr. Join
Lee Steven's patent smokeless furnace•, on the prenii,ts of
Messrs. Keens and Welch, (tarlick-hill, where tt.c principle
has been most succes•°ully applied to the furnaces ni* two
engines, one 01 Ittacb is of about 16 horse power. The in-
vention cnsist'. in the admission of a current of air, heated
to a high temperature, ea as to cause combustion of the car-
bonic snit hydrogen gases, before the smoke can be formed.
The 11.041144 operandi is extremely simple, and capable of
being applied to all furnaces at a comparatively small cost.
The smoke appeared to be entirely consumed, and Mr.
Keens ast.ured us that his firm were saving at least dO per
cent. in the cost of fuel.
