NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSAIOUTH, WEDNESDAY.--A court-martial wax
held this day, on board the Victory, in Portsmouth
Harbour. R,:ar-Admiral 11. Prescott, C. 8., president,
with the following officers, composed the court
tain IL D. Chads, of the Excellent ; Captain C. B.
Martin, 0.B:, of the Victory ; Captain E. H. Scott, of
the Neptune ; Captain W. H. Henderson, of the Blen-
hcim, and Captain L. T. Jones, of the Sampson ; M.
Greatham, Esq., Judge-Advocate—to try Mr. G. E. S.
P. Serocold, the second lieutenant of the steam-frigate
Retribution, for having, on the 17th of June last, ne-
glected his duty, and behaved disrespectfdly to his se-
nior officer,
_Mr. George Ommanney Willes, the first
lieutenant of the Retribution. It appeared that Lieu-
tenant Serocold was the officer of the watch on that day,
and was talking to the surgeon of the ship on the
quarter-deck, when the first lieutenant, Mr. Willes,
called to him, and desired him to attend to his duty, when
Mr. Serceold replied, and said he would not be spoken to
in such an impertinent way. From this slight occurrence
the court-martial arose. As there was a refusal to matte
any acknowledgment, the first lieutenant had no other
resource than a court-martial. The case for the arose-
cution was closed about one o'clock, when ehe court
allowed Mr. Serocold two hours to prepare his defence,
which having been read, the court found the charge
proved, and sentenced Lieutenant Serocold to be dia-
miAsed the Retribution, and to lose one year's rank as
a lieutenant in her Majesty's service.
The Portsmouth Dock and Victualling-yard Brigade
were exercising last evening, under Major Davis, out-
side the harbour's nao'ith, firing blank cartridge. His
men manage their boats and guns in a very superior
manner, and in case of need would do good service.

of Lieutenant llotesworth, of the Horatio, arrived at

BUENOS AYRES ENGLISH DEBT.
Resolutions passed at the PUBLIC MEETING of the Buenos
Ayres Bondholders, held at the London Tavern, on the 23d of
JUNE, 1852,
DAVID ROBERTSON, Esq., in the chair.
1. That this Sleeting, though aware of the intentions of the late
Government of the Argentine Republic to arran,re their English deb ,
and to renew its dividends, so soon as the treaty of peace with France
was ratified, and peace generally restored to La elate. feels called
upon to express its deep mortification and disap2ointment that the
reasonable and just expectations of the bondholders were not fulfilled,
and that this, the most sacred of all obligations of the Republic, was
not provided for in 1851 ; more especially, when it is well known
that the revenue of Buenos Ayres, which has been an annually in-
creasing one, has for some years past, been not less than 5,000,000
of hard dollars per annum, or 1,000,0001. sterling per annum, and
that, accordir.g to their own official documents, the excess of income
over expenditure amounted to upwards of 100,0001. per annum,
which excess at the close of the financial year of 1850 then amounted,
and had actually accumulated in the Treasury, to the sum of up-
wards of 500,0001. sterling, unappropriated, and at the disposal of
he Government.
2. That this Meeting has heard with much satisfaction that one
of the very first acts of the new Provisional Government has been to
convey through her Britannic Majesty's Minister at Bnenos Ayres,
Captain the Hon. Robert Gore, to Earl Granville, which has been
communicated to the Chairman by Earl Malmesbury, this distinct
and gratifying pledge, in the language of the dispatch :—" That the
Minister of Finance will be instructed, so soon as he has arranged
his financial statement, to give the British debt his first considera-
tion, in order, if possible, to arrive at some result that might be sails-
factory to all parties concerned."
3. That this Meeting begs to express its firmest confidence and
fullest reliance that ene of the first acts of the new Govern-
ment will be to redeem this pledge, and confer this act of simple
justice upon England "and Englishmen. who have long reposed
confidence in the good faits and honour of Buenos Ayres, and
now look upon the new Government as their sure guarantee
for Its redemption. And more, that the time has come, in
a national point of view, for her own sake, and the oppor-
tunity is now offered to that new Power to place the Argentine Re-
public on the same high ground of restoration and inviolate main-
tenance of the great principle of national faith and credit which is
now occupied by her neighbours, Brazil, Chili, and Peru; and when
also the Argentineßepublic is destined to take her place amongst the
. . .

great nations of America and Europe, who have ever found the pre-
servation of their national faith the keystone of the arch on which
an alone securely and permanently be founded the prosperity of any
nation.
4. That a memorial, embodying these sentiments, be addresset
the new Government of the Argentine Republic, signed by the
te
bond-
holders, or by their chairman on their behalf, and that the sameand
handed to MeSsrs. Baring Brothers and Co., for transmission
delivery to that Government, through the channel which they
may
consider to be the most desirable and the best ; and also to beg that
b manner as

Granville to accept their , warmest and sincerest thanks for the con-

Palmerston, and especially for his great consideration and kindness
in sending, within a tew days of his coming into office, an important
dispatch to Captain Gore on their behalf, the first valuable fruits of
which are mentione in the Sewed resolution of this meeting ; and
that this vote of thanks be also conveyed to Earl Granville by their
Chairman.
7. That a Deputation of the Bondholders and of others interested
in die prosperity of Buenos Ayres and its commerce with England,
headed by Thomas Baring, Esq., if he thinks proper and will do them
the favour to do so, do wait on the Earl of Malrees bury, and beg the
continuance of his good offices, in any manner of way his Lordship
may think most proper, and the most likely to attain the end they
have in view, and to accomplish a purpose so Important to England
as'' country, and to many Englishmen as individuals, as the resto-
rationheld;and ofs?la'lle a sum of money, so justly due, and so long with-
, also to beg the assistance of the British Government, and
their countenance and support, and that of their Minister at Buenos
_kyres, in such course and arrangements as may seem best calcu-
lated, at the earliest period, to make available to the commerce and
agriculture of England, and to the liquidation of the British debt,
the large fields of guano that are known to exist in the territories of
the Argentine Republic, and especially of Patagonia.
8.-That this Meeting begs to express its cordial and sincere
thanks to Captain the Hon. Robert Gore, her Britannic Majesty's
Minister at Buenos Ayres, for the mrapt and able manner in
which he has begun to carry out the instructions of Viscount Pal-
tnerston and Earl Granville, alike creditable to a British Minister
and of inestimable value to his countrymen ; and trusts that he may
cantinue at Buenos Ayres to see and to contribute to this matter
being brought to a favouaable termination, at an early day, under
his auspices and under the instructions of Earl Malmesbury, from
whom their Chairman has received the assurance " that Lord Mal-
mesbury hid confirmed the instructions of his predecessors, Lord
Palmerston and Lord Granville, to the Hon. Captain Gore, at
Buenos Ayres, in regard to their affairs," and that the above reso-
lution be communicated to Captain Gore by their Chairman.
9. That this Meeting, having the greatest esteem and confidence
in the highly respectable house of Messrs. Baring, Brothers, and
Co., the contractors f, .r this loan, and its agents throughout, as well
as the agents for the late and the present Government of Buenos
Ayres, begs to express again their confidence in that house, and
their approval of the act of their committee in leaving the negotia-
tion of this matter at Buenos Ayres, In actor lance with the resolu-
tions adopted at their last public meeting in May, 1451, in the hands
of the Messrs. Baring ; and to express a confident hope that the
Messrs. Baring will be enabled, at an early day, to arrange this
important matter, and to acquaint the Bondholders of the same, a
result which this Meeting is saasfied will be as gratifying to Messrs
Baring, Brothers, and Co., as it will be satisfactory to the Bond-
holders.

In addition to the foregoing resolutions, the following one was pro-
posed by Mr. G,wer and seconded by Sir George Sartorius :
That this Meeting is of opinion that, from official returns made by
order of the House of Commons, the guano found on the coast and
Wall Is of Patagonia (a portion of the territories of Buenos Ayres),
from its quality and great abundance, will be found a useful and im-
portant source of revenue, applicable (as in the case of a sister re-
public, Peru) to the payment and liquidation of the Buenos Ayres'
English debt. They narticularlc request the Messrs. Baring and the
Committee to direct their e &fly and earnest attention to this, at this
moment, universally admitted most important question.
The abyve resolutions were all unanimously adopted.
(Signed) DAVID RoBEUTSON, Chairman.
