NAVAL.
WORK FOR THE IRON STEAMERS.

PORTSMOUTH, JAN. 17.—The Birkenhead, iron
steam sloop, was taken into the Si fon dock thee morning.
She is to have a forecastle added to her, for the purpose of
greater facilities in the •ransport of troops. She is ordered
to be ready on the 10th of February for this duty. The
Vulcan, iron steam sloop, at Sheerness, is also ordered to
have a forecastle pat up, being destined for similar servile,.
Captain Sir Baldwin Walker, Surveyor of the Navy, visited
this yard yesterday, and went on board the Birkenhead sad
Tiger, steam ships tke remit of his inspection of the Arse
named Teasel being, as stared above, each alterations and
additions as will render her a more tfficient ship
for the conveyance of troops. We also learn that
the Bimoom, trot steam frigate, in this harbour,
will, after ►er one ines have bees tried, and if the trialshouhl
be satisfactory, be fitted as a troop ship. Thiel Tomei per
noes all the main requisites for sac% service, having abuts.
dant space for the conveyance of 1,000 men, should she be
found adapted for it in other respects. From these orders
and intrationsof the Admiralty it would appear that they
hare at leagtla arrived at the determination to devote the
the iron 'team fleet, or all iron ships that can prudently
be need fo► suck serene, to the conveyance of troops. The
general orinion is certainly against their ever being seed
at WIT pUtp,ll4lll.

The lodate: gible will be ready for sea on the S2th, and she
will be paid down an admen of six 'tenths at D.von-
port. Coesidersble disoonteat still prevails amongst ponies'
of the crew in mitotic to the new regulations so to grow,
aid the mass who had deserted from this cause are still
at large. On the police atteapting the 'setae* of sows of
thew tom days since, they drew their halve, and swore
they would murder thew if they did not dealt.—ln har-
