NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
THE DEATH OF REAR ADMIRAL SIR THOMAS

TBOU BRIDGE, IdART.
Rear-Admiral of the Red Sir Edward Thomas
Troubridge, Bart., died on Thursday night at his
residence, Eaton-place. Sir Edward was only son
of the late Rear•Adrniral Sir Thomas Troubridge,
Bart. and brother-in-law of Lieutenant General Sir
Charles Bulkeley Egerton, G C.M.G., K.C.H. He
entered the navy January 21, 1797, as a volunteer,
on board the Cambridge, 74, Captain Boger, guard-
ship at Plymouth. In January, 1801, joined, in the
capacity of midshipman, the Achille, 74, Captain
George Murray, with whom he continued employed
in the Channel and Baltic in the Edgar, 74, and
London, 98. In the Edgar he fought at the battle
of Copenhagen, April 2, 1801. In July, 1803, he
was received on board the Victory, 100, flag-
ship of Lord Nelson in the hlediterranean ; where,
in August, 1804, he removed to the Narcissus, 32,
Captain Ross Donnelly. That ship he left in
February, 1805. On Feb 22, 1806, he was created ,
a lieutenant of the Blenheim, 74, bearing his father's
flag in the East Indies ; and in March, August, and
October of the same year he was nominated acting
commander of the Harrier, 18, snd acting commander
of the Macassar and Greyhound frigates. His corn-
mis,ions as commander and captain bear date Sept.
5, 1806, and Nov. 28, 1807. While in the Harrier
and in company with the Greyhound, commanded at
the time by Captain Charles Elphinstone, he assisted,
July 4, 1806, in destroying under the fort of Maned°,
the Dutch company's brig Christian Elizabeth, of 8
guns, and 80 men. On the 6th of the same month
the two ships took, at the island. of Tidore, the Bel-
gica, of 12 guns and 32 men; and on the 26th they
fought a gallant-action with a Dutch squadron, con-
sisting of the Pallas, frigate, of 40 guns and 250 men,
the Vittoria (a two- decker) and Batavia, Indiamen,
both richly laden, and both (the one 800, the other
of 500 tons) armed for the purposes war, and the
William, corvettee, of 20 guns (24-pounders)
and 110 men ; the resta whereof was the
capture of all the enemy's ships but the Wil-
liam, after a loss had been incurred by
them of 12 killed and 39 wounded, and by the
British of 1 killed and 11 wounded. In his official
letter detailing the events we have just noticed, Cap-
tain Elphinstone says :-" The support and assistance
I have received from Captain Troubridge on every
other occasion throughout a difficult navigation, I at-
tribute to the same talents, ability, and zeal, which he
so nobly displayed on this one." After vainly cruis-
ing, in the Greyhound, in quest of his father, who, it
was thought, on the Blenheim being missed, might
have put into some port to repair his damages, Cap-
tain Troubridge, in January, 1808, invalided home.
His next appointment was to the Armide, 38, which
frigate he commanded from Feb 5, 1813, until May,
1815. He assisted, in company with the Endymion,
40, in making prize, Aug. 15, 1814, of the Herald,
American privateer, of 17 guns and 100 men; and on
the following day he captured alone the Invincible,
of 16 guns and 60 men. During the operations
against New Orleans he landed as senior officer of the
naval brigade, and was highly spoken of for his conduct,
particularly for the assistance be afforded the troops
in throwing up batteries and getting the guns in.
From April 15, 1831, until superseded in October,
1832, be commanded the Stag, 46, on particular ser-
vice. In April, 1835, he obtained a seat at the Board
of Admiralty; and on resigning that appointment he
assumed command, Aug. 23, 1841, of the Formi-
dable, 84, fitting for the Mediterranean. He was
advanced to the flag rank Nov. 23 following, and has
since been on half-pay. He bad been nominated a
C.B. July 20, 1838. Sir Edward Thomas Trou-
bridge was a deputy-lieutenant for the county of
Haddington, and was returned to Parliament in 1831
as Member for Sandwich. From June 30, 1831.
until promoted to his last rank, he had filled the post
of naval aide-de-camp to his late and her present
Majesty. He married, Oct. 18, 1810 Anna Maria,
daughter of Admiral the Hon. Sir Alexander For-
rester Inglis Cochrane, G.C.8., sister of Vice-Ad-
miral Sir T. J. Cochrane, 8., and cousin of
Admiral the Earl of Dundonald, G.C.B.

Chads, C. 8., and Flag Lieutenant Pashly, went out
in the Fire Queen, Master •Commander Paul, and
mustered and inspected the Archer screw steam-sloop,
at Spithead, preparatory to her going into harbour.
THE MEDITERRANEAN.—PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY.
—The following is an extract of a letter, dated Vourla
Bay, September 20 :
" The squadron under Rear-Admiral Dundas, con-
sisting of the Britannia, 120, Trafalgar, 120, Albion,
90, Bellerophon, 78,Vengeance, 84, Phaeton, 50, Tiger
steam-frigate, Firebrand steam-frigate, and Fury
steam•sloop, anchored at Vourla on the evening of
the 18th of September, to fill up water and obtain
refreshments, having been at sea since the 16th of
August. We remain here about ten days, and then
proceed to Athens, Corfu, and Malta, arriving there
about the latter end of October—possibly not quite
ao soon, should the weather prove fine. The exercise
of the fl,•et continues very regular, without harassing
either officers or men. No changes worthy of notice
have taken place. The Admiralty have directed
the re-issue of lime juice.
" The Turkish squadron is lying here, consisting
of a double-banked frigate, with the admiral's flag at
the main ; two other frigates, two brigs, and a
schooner. One of the frigates is the same that was
at Portsmouth two years ago.
THE DUKE OF WELLINOTON.A letter from Pem-
broke says :—" That noble ship the Windsor Castle,
henceforth the Duke of Wellington, has topmasts on
end, and has taken in 900 tons of ballast. It is ex-
pected that she will leave this haven on Saturday, the
9th instant, accompanied by her Majesty's steamers
Desperate and Inflexible. She will reach Portsmouth
about Tuesday, the 12th.
Leander, 50, Captain G. St. Vincent King, having
taken out her powder and shells, was towed into
Portsmouth harbour yesterday morning by the Echo.
DEVONPORT, OCT. 7.—The appointment of Mr.
Dent as storekeeper of this yard, yesterday, was
hailed with the greatest satisfaction. He is a gentle-
man who thoroughly understands the duties of the
dockyard, and his removal from it, in 1847, was
under circumstances which created a disgust amongst
some of his political opponents. On the news of his
appointment yesterday the greatest joy was mani-
fested, and thanks were given to the Admiralty for
their act of justice to the officer as well as to the
country.
Lively, lighter, Hartfield, arrived to-day with
ordnance stores from Pembroke.

Manceuvrer, lighter, Ross, master, sailed to-day
with stores for Woolwich.

to be entered to fill vacancies.

mander Strange, was inspected at Spithead to-day,

Spithead this morning from the Thames, and sailed,
after embarking passengers and stock, for New York.
SHEERNESS, THURSDAY, 8 A.M.— Her Majesty's
ship Hercules, 12, Commander Baynton, left the an-
chorage at Saltpan Reach at 8 A.M. yesterday, and
passed through the harbour in tow of the African and
Adder steamers on her way to Blackwell.

tender pro tern. to the Monarch guard-ship, was dis-
patched yesterday morning to Chatham, where she
embarked the marines and marine artillery ordered for

Maitland. Oa arriving here in the afternoon the de-
tachments were placed on board the Minotaur,
selected as the hulk for the officers and crew of the
Agamemnon during her being got ready for sea.

sittart, proceeded to the anchorage at the Little Nore
yesterday, at ten A.M. After having taken in her
powder she will be inspected, and forthwith sail for
Spithead.
Her Majesty's brig Daring, 12, Commander
Gerard Napier, having completed the adjustment of
her compasses, left port yesterday at two in
tow of the Lizard steamer, anchored at the Little
Nore, and commenced taking in her powder. She
will probably be inspected this day, and sail for Spit-
