The war prison at Lewes (formerly the county House
of Correction) is now completed, and on Thursday re-
ceived the remainder of its complement of prisoners, 204
of whom, including three women and one child, arrived
on the afternoon of that day from Sheerness, in chargr
of Lieutenant Mann, R.N., the governor of the prison,
end a detachment of pensioners. The officers, who
are on parole, are—Major Grahn, Captain Meiert, Cap-
tain Von Essen, Captain Snellinan, Lieutenant Bloum,
Lieutenant Bollfras, Lieutenant Hook, Lieutenant
Grotenfelt, Lieutenant Dalin, Younker (Cadet) Groten-
felt, Younker Leisted, Younker Leisted, Younker
Beckman, Mr. Okerman (apothecary to the battalion),
and Sherif Oehrbun. The latter is a civilian, and pro-
tests againsts his imprisonment, as being contrary to the
usages of war. The whole of the prisoners at Lewes
belonged to the Grenadiersche Streltze, •r Fusilier Gre-
nadiers, and. formed part of the garrison of Aland. The
men are Finlanders, but the officers, although Russian
born, are descendants of French and German families.
Captain Melert and Lieutenant Nonni are accompanied
by their wives, both of whom are highly accomplished
ladies. Although the Russian army generally is attached
to the Greek Church, the officers at Lewes are members
of the Lutheran Church, to the doctrines of which those
of the Church of England greatly assimilate, and the differ-
ences between them are not such as to prevent the officers
attending divine service in our churches ; but at present
Lieutenant Bolifras is the only one who understands
English. When the prisoners first arrived diarrlicea
prevailed among them, but from the exertions of Dr.
Burton, the prison surgeon, assisted by Mr. Okerinan,
it has now disappeared. The infirmary, which is de-
tached, is fitted up with baths and every convenience,
the medicines are regularly arranged, and everything
is ready for immeoiate use. Accommodation is pro-
vided for thirty patients. The dining-room is con-
structed to contain 400 persone, and in it the prisoners
breakfast at eight o'clock, dine at one, and take tea
at six ; each person is allowed 11-lb. of bread per day.
This room is to be used on Sundays as a chapel, a
clergyman having been appointed by Government to
preach to the prisoners in their own language. A
large shed has been fitted up for the men to make
toys in for sale to the public ; and here may be seen
a considerable number of them seated on the ground
cutting out of single pieces of wood with a knife,
chains, representations of crowns of thorns, and
puzzles, which are seperated at joints ; a large demand
for the article, has sprung up, from sixpence up-
ward, being the price paid for each article bought
by the numerous customers, and with this price
the men appear exceedingly well pleased. The receipts
are divided among the prisoners, and in one day upwards
of 4/. was taken, The toyshop-keepers at Brighton
have taken the hint, and most of the shops of that de-
scription have " Russian toys " ticketted in their win-
dows. Most of the men speak three languages—viz.,
Finnish, Swedish, and Russ ; but the first is their native
tongue, and the others they acquire by residence in
various paets of nuesie, The majority of them are not
only able to read, but can Write tolerably well, particu-
larly the sergeants and other subordinate officers. If a
comparison were made between the prisoners now in this
gaol end one of our own regiments as to their intellec-
tual acquiretnente, rre elinoet fear the " northern barba-
rians" would carry off the palm. A large room is being
fitted up as a library, and writing materials will also be
provided; suitable books will he furnished by the Go-
vernment, and the men are anxionely looking forward to
their arrival. In almost every cell there is a copy of the
Bible and Teetarmeit, and in ono a visitor saw a soldier
attentively reading the latter: Three men are located in
each cell. Workshops are being erected for the car-
penter arid joiner, the tailor, the rdiesimaker, and the
barber hag not been forgotten ; a snug little goseipping
shop being hi course of construction for him to carry on
hie vocation in. All who have examined the prison ex-
press their admiration at the manner in which the Go-
vernment officiate have executed its orders for providing
for the comforts of die teen, and the prisoners themselves
appear exceedingly well pleased With the treatment they
rec'im Several of the leading gentlemen of the county
hare heeii ihtfeeliieed to the officers, and others hare left
their cards. Among bell Ats the Hon. H. Brand,
M.P., Mr. R. W. Blencowe, and Mr, W. 11. Blaauw,
county magistrates. The officers frequently take a ride
over the South Downs, and appear delighted with the
salubrity of the air,

The Uth anniversary and entry upon the 50th year,
or jubilee of the glorious victory of Trafalgar, by the
Royal Naval Club, took place at the Thatched House
Tavern, St. James's-street, on Saturday, the 21st inst.
Since the reception of Vice-Admiral Cecilia, of the
French navy, Viten the ambassador to this country, in the
summer of 1848, when the governor of Greenwich Hos-
pital, the late Vice-Admiral Sir Charles Adam, K.C.8.,
presided especially for the occasion, as one of the oldest
and most distinguished members of the club, there has
not been so large a meeting of the members as took
place on Saturday. Earl Nelson, the grand-nephew of
Vice-Admiral Horatio Viscount Nelson, Duke of Bronte,
of glorious and beloved memory, was the guest on this
occasion.
Captain Hood, who served as a midshipman in the
Acbille, the seventh ship of Collingwood's line, was in
the chair, supported by two of the surviving midshipmen
of the same ship, who were also in the action—Captain
Richard Douglas and Commander Lardner Dennys ;
and altogether there were present the following fifty-ens
flag-officers, captains, and commanders :
Vice-Admiral Sir William Milos, K.C.H. ; Vice-Ad-
miral Sir Edward Chethant Strode, K.C.B. and K.C.H.
Rear-Admirals Sir Charles Sullivan, Bart., Edward
Collier, C. 8., J. Ilellinsworth, Henry C. Deacon.
Captains—William Hood (chairman), Mark Sweeny,
William Chambers, Michael Quin, William Richardson,
John Sykes, Edward Stanley, Charles Rayley, Edward
Chappell, Edward Barnett, Hen. Thomas Best, John
Hudson, Charles Edmunds, H. B. Young, Sir Edward
Belcher, C. 8., Uarry Edgell, Edward A. Inglefield, and
Richard Doviglas,
Commanders—William Miller, George Howes, Henry
Rich, Danield Weld, John Brandford, Thomas Smith,
C. W. Jay, Edward Robinson, Henry Parry, John Mid-
dleton, H. Freestun, Lardner Denny'', J. T. Weod, G.
F. Westbrook, William T. Rivers, J. Washington,
Cave, A. N. Fairrnan, George Spong, H. Strode, J. B.
Crawford, James S. Lean, Henry Lancaster, George
Hand, R. M. Ward, and Samuel hideout.
Secretary—William Allen, R.N., Greenwich Hos-
pital.
After dinner the loyal toast, " The Queen," was pro-
posed, and drank by all upstanding, with three times
three enthusiastic cheers.
The next toast, " Prince Albert, Prince of Wales,
and Royal Family," was also drank, and enthusiastically
cheered by the gallant officers.

These ships it will he seen are of the same class as the
sea-going converted screw-ships Blenheim, Ajax, Hogue,
and Edinburgh ; but half-a-dozen of them fitted and armed
in the manner proposed will net cost as much as the Blen-
heim, while at the same time they will be quite efficient.
The conversion of the Blenheim cost almost as much as a
new line-of-battle-ship, but the Edinburgh cost compara-
tively little, as no attempt was made to renew her, but
simply to convert her with as little alteration as possible
reasonably, so that their conversion into effective de-
fence-ships will be accomplished at a very small expense.
The success that has attended the conversion of the
Royal George and some of the new sailing line-of-battle
ships into good serviceable screws has been most remark•
able. The experience has been dearly bought, as it has
cost much to overcome the prejudice that prevented the
conversion of those old 72's to some better purpose than
rotting in our harbours. The Blenheim and others have
engines of 450-horse power ; but the Hawke and Corn-
wallis batch are to have high-pressure engines of 160-
horse power ; and the accession of strength to oar fleet
by these powerful additions is incalculable. They have
given us a force superior to the world. This enables us
once wore to take the lead, and which, we have little
doubt, new we shall keep.
The two first of the screw guard-ships that are likely
be soon complete are the Cornwallis at Devonport,
and the Hawke at Chatham.
The Russell, anether of the 74's, iv in the graving dock
at Sheerness, having her poop take. off, and a large
space cut away in the after part for converting her into
A screw. Some trifling decay has been discovered in the
dead wood ; not sufficient, however, to prove her the
worse for wear. This vessel, like the Hawke, 74, at
Chatham, is to draw a foot less water when complete.
The prevailing opinion is that these ships will have a
seasoning in the Baltic before they are appropriated to
certain ports.

Sir Thomas 13yam Martin was third son of Sir Henry
Byam Martio,Bart., Surveyor of the Navy, and M.P. for
Southampton, and was intimately connected by family and
marriage with numerous naval, military, and civil servants
of the Crown. Hisname was first placed on the books of a
man-of-war, the Foudroyant, 80, Captain Jervis, in
June, 1782, and he entered the Royal Naval Aca-
demy in 1785, embarking in March of the following
year as captain's servant on board the Pegasus, 23,
commanded by H.R.H. Prince William Henry, with
whore he continued to serve, and as midshipman in
the Andromeda frigate, on the North American and
West India stations, till July, 1789. He continued,
in various ships, on Channel service till October the
following year, when he was made lieutenant into the
Canada, 74, Captains Lord Hugh Seymour and Eras-
mus Gower. Again serving in this capacity in the
Inconstant and Juno, frigates, he was promoted in
May, 1793, to the command of the Tisiphone, 12, in
which he was present at the occupation by Lord Hood
of Toulon, but which place the English were compelled
to evacuate by the genius, then beginning to display
itself, of Bonaparte. In six months after, being made
commander, Sir Thomas Martin was posted into the
Modeste frigate. Being afterwards appointed to the
Artois, he cooperated in the reduction of Bastia. Ile
was again removed to the command of the Santa Mar-
garitta 40 guns and 237 men, when he made prizes of
the French corvette Le Jean Bart, 18, and the priva-
teers, Le Bonaparte, 16 guns and 137 men, and Le
Vengeur, 18 guns and 110 men ; and on the Bth of June,
1796, after a close and gallant action of 20 minutes, he
effected the capture of Le Tatnise, of 40 guns and 306
men, the latter losing 13 killed and 12 wounded, whilst
the loss of the English, according to the Gazette, was
only two killed and three wounded. In December of
the same year he took the Tamar, 38, to the West In-
dies, and was present in April the following year in the
unsuccessful attack on Puerto Rico. lie was, however,
well compensated for this disappointment, for, during
the next five months, he captured no less than nine
French privateers, carrying altogether 53 guns and 519
wen ; thus conferring material benefits on the merchant
shipping. He next had command of the Dictator, 64,
and the Fisgard, 46, and 231 men is the Channel, and
in the latter, on the 20th of October, 1793, being off
Brest, he succeeded in capturing the French ship
Irnmortalite, of 42 guns, and 580 men, a portion of
whom, however, were troops: the'renehs after
an obstinate conilict, surrendered, with a loss of 54
killed, and 61 wounded ; the loss of the Fisgard
being 10 killed, and 26 wounded. The fact of
Captain Martin's crow, in both of the above instances,
being young and inexperienced, is referred to by
his biographer, O'Byrne, as adding to that officer's merit
in possessing laimaelf of the enemy's vessels. His next
exploit was on the night of the 23d of June, 1800, when
he had personal command of the boats of a squadron
entering the Qaimper River, effecting on its banks the
destruction of three batteries, mounting seven 24;ponnd-
ers, together with tiller magazines. Whilst in the Fie-
bard, he further took the following prizes :—La Venus,
32 guns, 200 men ; La Dagon, 14 guns ; La Gironde,
privateer, of 1G gone and 141 men ; L'Alerte, privateer,
of 14 guns and 84 men ; Vivo, national vessei) of 14
guns and 100 men ; and three others, mounting 13 guns.
Captain Martin's succeeding appointments were to the
Inspeteux, 84, in March, 1803, in which ship he served
in the Channel till December, 1805, and in 1807 to the
Prince of Wales, 93, and Implacable, 74, on the home
and Baltic stations.

The CLUIRMAN, on rising to propose the toast of the
day, prefaced it by the following history of that memor-
able event in which he, as a young 'volunteer, acted a
part :—This being the forty-ninth anniversary of the ever
memorable battle of Trafalgar, it is not generally under-
stood that it is the jubilee ; ut, nevertheless, it is so.
From scriptural record we find that the forty-ninth Sab-
bath of seven times seven years was the year of rest for
the land, and tillage ceased for that year to mark the
epoch. If we go tillage
modern precedent, George HI.,
of honoured memory, on the entry upon the 50th
year of his reign, and on the 49th anniversary of his
accession to the throne, had that event proclaimed
by Parliament, and it was celebrated on the 27th of
October, 1809, by his admiring and truly attached sub-
jects. If Lord Nelson's life eould have been possibly
