sailed yesterday morning for the eastward.
The Basilisk, 4, paddle-wheel steam-ship, sailed last
evening for the eastward.
The General Steam Shipping Company's vessel Har-
binger arrived this morning from the Thames. Her
crew will be inspected and mustered by Captain Lowe.
and she will sail on the 15th for the Cape of Good Hope
and India.

PORTSMOITTH, WiIIDNESDAT.—The Retribution steam-

supernumeraries for Rear-Admiral Dundas.

Her Majesty, Prince Albert, and the Royal Family
are frequently afloat in the royal steam-yact Fairy,
enjoying the cool evening breezes in the Solent. Last
evening the yacht steamed nearly up to Spithead, and
received a royal salute from the Retribution steam-
frigate, with yards manned, &o. The Fairy, with the
Royal party on board and standard flying, steamed
nearly up to Spithead on the previous evening, but no

occasion.

vv
The Duke of Northumberland's late visit to the Chan-
nel Islands began with Guernsey, where he landed early
on the morning of Tuesday, the 6th inst., and remained
until late in the afternoon, when he crossed to Jersey,
and on the following day, atter carefully inspecting the
works of the harbour of refuge forming in St. Cathe-
rines_bay, St. Heliers, &C., started for Alderney. on
Thursday he examined the Admiralty Harbour works
in progress in Alderney, the quarries, the new church,
&c., in all which the Duchess appeared to take great
interest. The tides being at neap, neither Mr Walker,
Mr. Barges, nor Mr. Cooper, the principal engineers,
met bis Grace at either of the islands, but Mr. Neville,
at Jersey, and Mr. Rhodes, at Alderney, explained the
plans; and the Duke expressed his satisfaction with the
works and their progress. The shelter afforded by the
Alderney works is considerable; it has already been
found useful, and will, it is expected, be much more so
next winter.
