Of the £426,000 sterling, which was the amount
of the Moorish LoP.n contracted in January, and which was
to be paid over to the Spanish Government, about £250,000
is believed to be intended to be retained in this country for
Payments on Spanish account. Of the balance a portion
has already been sent in gold, and the remainder will pro-
bably follow in moderate parcels.
[ADVERTISEMENTd—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.—
Vexation avoided I—This Ointment is the most powerful
agent for the healing of wounds, old ulcers, indolent sores,
and all s!rumous diseases of the' skin which, from local or
constitutional causes, have hitherto resisted all ordinary
modes of treatment. Holloway's Ointment rubbed upon
the abdomen and aided by a judicious course of his Pills
acts miraculously on the digestion, and obviates all those
obstons o
in the mesenteric glands known by the pallor,
attenuation, and gradually increasing weakness of the
sufferer. The combined effects of Ointment and Pills are
irresistible inn all long-continued diseases which ever pro-
duceof the digestion, circulation and
glandular system. Holloway's
.remedies are suitable for
all ages and conditions, for all climates and coustantione,

The company who undertock to supply sample
plates or slabs of iron of the mp-..oved quality re-
quired for the armour coating of the Caledonia,
under construction at Woolwich, having failed to
do so, the contract has been handed over to Messrs.
Hill and Smith, Brierly-hill Iron Works, Stafford-
shire. Mr. Smith, one of the firm, yesterday visited
the Caledonia at Woolwich, end finding that the
works were in a very advanced state, he informed
the authorities that the first despatch of plates would
arrive without delay. Each weighs eight tons, is
3ft 3in wide, 15ft long, and 4-,in thick.
The Worcester, old 46-gun sailing frigate, hav-
ing been completed fitting foi a training ship, and
jury-rigged, left the Medwty yesterday for the
Thames, where she will be stationed. the Admi-
ralty having lent her to the Aarine Society, to be
used as a training vessel. The Worcester was con-
structed at Deptford several years ago, and has
never been to sea, having been attached to the
Chatham sailing reserve for a considerable period.
On Wednesday a numerous body of shipwrights
at Chatham dockyard commenced the removal of the
coffer-dam at the entrance to No. 7 slip, on which
the iron-plated frigate Royal Oak, is building, in
order to lay down the " ways" for the launch of
that vessel. As soon as the necessary works con-
nected with this portion of the undertaking have
been completed, the dam will be refixed, until its
final removal for the launch. The energies of the
hands connected wit & tileßevtaraj,, departments .aitt,
now devoted to fixing tile armour-plates to the
frigate's sides, but this operation necessarily pro-
ceeds ',slowly, owing to the want of the requisite
machinery for preparing the slabs of iron, the fac-
tory, adjoining the slip, in which the machinery
will be fixed not being likely to be ready for some
weeks to come. It is intended to place two lines of
armour-plates on the Royal Oak's sides before she
is launched, but according to present appearance it
is probable that by the period named for launching
her one tier of armour-plates will scarcely be fixed.

I number of workmen have commenced the re-
moial of the sill and granite sides of No. 3 dock at
ChEtham, to allow of the Royal Oak being ad-
mited into it as soon as launched. The Royal Oak
is 53 feet 9 inches in breadth, without her exterior
plaiking and armour places, which will only give
a snail space between her sides and the dock. ;The
Ramon, 21, which is at present in the third dock,
wil be undocked to-day, to have her masts fixed on
board. .
