Naval and Military. Intelligence.

Her Majesty's steam-transport Urgent, Commander
Phillips, went into Portsmouth harbour yesterday morn-
ing to disembark her passengers and invalids, consisting
of Lieut.-Colonel Cobbs, of the 2:f West York Militia ;
Captain M'Naghten, of the Bth Hussars ; Lieut. Fano,
of the 54th Regiment ; Ensign Cunliffe, of the 3d Royal
Lancashire Militia (in charge of invalid-) ; Lieut. Fal-
mer, of the Impregnable ; Mr. Thomas, Master of the
Impregnable, and the navigating party, who took the
receiving-ship Hibernia, 104, from Plymouth to Malta ;
Mr. Reynolds, surgeon, from her Majesty's ship Niger,
on promotion ; Mr. Inches, Assistant-Engineer, R.N.,
to join her Majesty's ship Fisgard ; Lieut. Ozzard,
R.M., invalided from her Majesty's ship Princess Royal;
the Rev. Chas. Moore (garrison chaplain at Gibraltar),
son, and daughter ; Mrs. Seagrave ; Mrs. Buckley ; 1
sergeant and 5 privates of the Royal Lancashire Militia,
to join the depot ; 2 warrant officers of the Royal navy;
26 naval invalids; 3 distressed British seamen ; 10
women, 13 children, and military invalids, consisting of
18 of the Royal Artillery, 1 of the Ist Royal Regiment
of Foot, 4 of the 54th, 5 of the 66th, 6 of the 94th, 1 of
the 95th, 26 of the West York Militia, and 12 of the 3d
Royal Lancashire. These poor fellows were miserably
off on board the ship, owing to her taking in water at
the scuppers and scuttles, and thus saturating their
decks ; the troop-deck was constantly wet, and the
roundhouses on it were useless and incapable of afford-
ing accommodation from that cause ; men, women, and
officers had to make use of others on the upper deck in
consequence.
The 50-gun steam-frigate Shannon will be launched
to-morrow from Portsmouth dockyard, at 11 o'clock.
At Spithead—The Caesar, 91, Capt. Robb ; the Hast-
ings, 60, Capt. E. G. Fanshawe ; the Russell, 60, Capt.
Francis Scott ; the Blenheim, 60, Capt. W. H. Hall ;
the Hawke, 60, Capt. Ommanney; the Ajax, 60, Capt.
Warden ; and the Edinburgh, 58, Capt. Hewlett. The
last named is ordered to have her defects made good with
all speed and proceed to Kingstown (Dublin), not
Queenstown, as before reported.
The Gorgon steam-sloop, 6, Commander R. B. Craw-
ford, arrived at Memel on the 17th inst., having in tow a
large coasting-sloop, of about 150 tons, one of four of
that class which her boats (under the command of Lieut.
Michell) succeeded in cutting out from a Russian pot t,
near Riga, on the 26th of Sept. During the time the
Gorgon has been in the Baltic (not four months) she has
succeeded in capturing and destroying no less than 40
small vessels, chiefly employed in conveying grain from
ports in Esthonia, to Stockholm, and returning with salt
and other necessaries of life ; these cargoes average in
value about 401. each, but from the nature of the service
the Gorgon has been employed on it became imperative
to destroy them ; it is hoped, therefore, a grant will
eventually be made for arduous service of this nature.
An experimental mortar-boat arrived at Portsmouth
yesterday from Liverpool, in tow of the Uncle Sam tug.
She is built of iron by Laird, of Birkenhead, on an en-
tirely new principle. She carries her mortar amidships,
and has the most ample stowage below. She draws at
present but two feet of water, and when mounted and
munitioned her draught, it is estimated, will not be three
feet. Her name is the Cupid.
The Perseverance, steam transport No. 7, Captain
Haines, was ordered yesterday to he turned over by the
Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company
(who have been working her since her outfit) to the Ad-
miralty, as she will henceforth be a naval transport, com-
manded by Commander Crang and a man-of-war crew
and complement of officers.
The following are the latest appointments made at the
Admiralty :—Commander J. H. Crang to the Persever-
ance ; Lieut. G. M. Comber to the Perseverance; Lieut.
A. Dent to the Basilisk ; Lieut. W. W. Oke to the
Royal William ; Lieut. J. Moore, to the Salamander ;
W. H. T. Green, Master, to the Perseverance ; Edwin
M. Stone, Paymaster, to the Perseverance ; John R.
Starling, Assistant-Clerk, to the Perseverance.
The following gentlemen passed for direct commissions
in the Royal Marine Corps at the Royal Naval College,
Portsmouth, yesterday :—H. C. Bowker, H. J. de Kant-
zow, S. T. Bridgford, W. J. W. O'Grady, G. Hewlett,
H. M. Kay, N. F. Way, and E. A. Macey.
At Portsmouth yesterday the following ships were on
station and in progress of refit, &c. :
In the Harbour.—The Victory (flag), Captain G. T.
Gordon ; the St. Vincent, 101 (ordinary flag), Captain
G. A. Elliott, C. 8., the Calcutta, 84, Captain J. J.
Stopford ; the Excellent, 46, Captain Sir Thomas Mait-
land, C.B. (gunnery training ship) ; the Illustrious, 72
(novices' instruction ship), Captain Harris ; the Victoria
and Albert (the Queen's state yacht), Captain the Hon.
Joseph Denman ; and the Fairy, Elfin, and Osborne
tenders ; the Perseverance, troop-transport ; the Arro-
gant, 46, Captain Yelverton ; the Basilisk, 6, steam-
sloop, Commander Jenner ; the Fire Queen and
Sprightly steam-tenders, Master Commander Paul and
Acting Master George Allen ; the Urgent, steam-tran-
sport ; the Fanny and the Portsmouth sailing-tenders ;
and the Polyphemus steam-sloop, Commander Warren,

escape yesterday morning from the guard while the
gangs were employed in their ordinary labour in Wool-
wich Arsenal yard. The first, named James Leisham,
is 27 years of age, and is a native of Dundee. When con-
victed he was a hawker. He was under sentence of
penal servitude for 64 years. The second, belonging to
a separate gang, named Wm. Buckengshaw, is 20 years
of age. He is a native of Sheffield, and wandered about
the country as a knife-grinder, He is supposed to have
dressed himself in one of the labourer's brown overcoats,
which is missing, and to have carried off a cotton um-
brella. He was condemned to penal servitude for life,
and most probably contrived in this disguise to elude the
examination of the police and inspectors at the gates.
