NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSAIOUTIT, APRIL 24.—The Cadmus, 10,
Commander Sir Thomas Thompson, arrived at
Spithead on Tuesday, with a freight of diamonds
and silver, value 20,0001. sterling. She had a good
run from Pernambuco of thirty-five days only, hav-
ing sailed from that port on the 17th ult. She left
Bahia on the 6th March, and Rio Janeiro on the

12th February ; in the latter port the Warspite,
76, Captain Burgess, and Algerine, 10, Com-
mander Talbot, were.then lying there. The Volage,
28, Captain Lord Colchester, was going in as the
Cadmus came out of the harbour. She brings no
political news relative to Brazil; all war quiet there.
On the Ist of March the President of Bahia, who
is a General Officer, and a great friend of the Em-
peror, was assassinated in the street, while parading
in the evening. It was imagined, however, that the
cause was wholly of a private nature. A line-of-
battle ship of 64 guns, and a frigate, are about to be
launched at Bahia. The Lightning, 18, Captain
Dickinson, was at Buenos Ayres. In this neigh-
bourhood, although no positive hostilities existed,
yet the spirit of party ran high, and the country
was almost impassable, from the numerous prowling
bands of robbers. General Quiroga was giving
considerable alarm to the Chilian Government, he
having crossed the mountains, and, when last heard,
of, was advancing to the city of St. Jago. The
Thetis frigate was at Valparaiso; the Forte frigate
at Callao, waiting for silver, which the Sapphire
frigate was to bring from Acapulco and San Blas,
and the Alert sloop of war from the intermediate
ports. The Tribune frigate sailed for the Pacific
on the 6th January, where the Seringapatam had
also proceeded. Capt. Hon. W. Waldegrave will
command on that station, when Capt. Bingham
quits; the Seringapatam will previously, how-
ever, visit the Society and Friendly Islands.
On the 23d of December the Chilian brig
of war Achilles, of 20 guns, mutinied against
her officers while at anchor at Valparaiso,
sent her Admiral and Captain on shore, and was
making to sea when the Chilian Authorities re-
quested Capt. Bingham, in the Thetis, to br)rtg her
back. He immediately slipped, and fired a gun to
bring her to, when the Chilian brig had the teme-
rity to return the fire, for which she was severely
punished with a cot;ple of broadsides, having lost
several of her men. She was brought back and re-
stored to the Chilian Government. The Algerine

sloop of war was lately sent to St. Catherines, to
obtain restitution of an English vessel, which had
fraudulently been taken from the owners through
the illness or derangement other Captain. She was
found plundered of her cargo, and about to proceed
to sea as a pirate. She was brought into Rio Ja-
neiro.—The Cadmus spoke the ship Express, from
London, to Marseilles, in long. 10. 50. lat. 48. She
came into harbour on Thursday to be paid off.
Our India squadron on the Ist of December was
disposed as follows :—Southampton at Trincomalee;
Crocodile at New South Wales; Challenger at
Madras, on the point of proceeding to Bombay;
Success on her way from Sydney to Ceylon, and
to come to England ; Satellite at Calcutta, and after-
wards to cruise off the coasts of Manahan and
Siam; Cruizer and Sulphur at Swan River; Comet
at Manilla; Zebra at Van Dieman's Land. The
Southampton, Challenger, and Satellite had been
on an experimental cruise, in which the South-
ampton proved to have more speed and to possess
more weatherly qualities than the smaller vessels.
The Satellite stood better under her canvass than
the Challenger. Lieutenants Sicklemore, Mowatt,
and Cuppage, with Mr. Ray, surgeon, and Lieut.
Griffin, R.M. had invalided, and were to some home
in the Success.

On Thursday the Childe Harold, Indiaman, ar-
rived from Bombay, Ceylon, and the Mauritius. At
the latter island she loaded sugar. She left Bombay
on the 2d November, Ceylon on the Bth December,
and Mauritius the 25th January; at the latter place
she left the Tweed frigate, and the Jaseur sloop of
war. She touched at the Cape, and quitted on the
17th February, leaving there the Maidstone frigate
and Falcon sloop of war. We are sorry to learn
the total loss of the Lady Holland, Indiaman, at
Dassien Island, about sixty miles north of the Cape,
all her passengers and crew were, however, saved.
The Childe Harold called at St. Helena, and found
there the David Scott, Indiaman. At Ascension,
from which she sailed on the 10th March, she left
the Chanticleer and Primrose sloops of war. The
Espoir sloop of war was cruising off St. Helena.

deacon of Bombay, Lieutenant-Colonel and Mrs.

the Company's Service, Captain Floyer, 40th it"
giment, with part of the Staff Corps from Ceylon,
under charge of Lieutenant Bell, of the 58th Reg,
rnent, came home passengers in the Childe Hare'"'
We have accounts from • Alexandria of a reeet
date. They confirm the report that the troops °it
the Pacha had made no movement in furtherance °i
the views of France against Algiers. According
to these accounts, a treaty of alliance betwal
France and Egypt was on the point of being signet',
and all the conditions were agreed on, but erde:s
issued from the Cabinet of Windsor put a stop t°
these negociations, in consequence of which 'Weir
met Ali has relinquished all idea of making. any eel'
tlemeet in one or more of the Barbary RegenctS'
Already several Egyptian vessels had their pram'
sions on board, and the embarkation of the troop 9
was to have taken place. Nevertheless, many per'
sons are of opinion, that Mehemet will still pursue
his original designs, and that he will not retreat,
after having incurred the principal part of the ex'
pence necessary for as expedition. Ibrahim Pach"
the son of Ali Pacha, is actively superintendingtbe
works going on at Alexandria; Osman Bey, Yrk°
is a superintendent over everything naval and mil'•
tary, has commences buildine.' two three decker,
to mount 100 guns ; and he has launched a frig°
of 54 guns, built by an Arab (who neither knoll
how to read or write), which, from her appearineh
,
would not discredit the most seientiie conetructe
in Europe. Ali Patents is a most extraordinary ash
and the progress he is making in preparing the
sinews of war is most astonishing. He has 40,00°,
troops disciplined after the European mode. He ti
constructing an arsenal, has a fleet of about third
sail, four large double banked frigates, and expect'
ing one from Marseilles, and one from England dailP
Ail these preparations are supposed to be indicative
of his throwing off his allegiance to the Porte, 'when'
ever the times are favourable, or he may' feel hire•
self strong enough to insure its success.-z-irampshire
