NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.

The Royal Albert, 131 guns, screw steam-ship, Com-
mander Alexander Little.—The gotta percha speaking
tubes for this noble ship have been restricted, by an Ad-
miralty order received here, to be fitted only from the
poop to the engine-room, to the knight herds, to the
upper deck, main deck, middle deck, and lower deck
The most essential tubes in cases of communication
during a gale of wind, requested to be conveyed into the
fore, main, and mizen tops, are objected to he supplied
by their lordships' orders. The Hannibal, when here,
was fitted on the folloWing plan, on the suggestion of
her commander, now commodore :-011 each ,ide of the
poop nettit'f runs a tube communicating with the engine-
room ; also from each side of the poop, along the netting
the forecastle abreast the fore mast, to convey orders
for working the slop. From the poop against the mizen-
mast run four tubes to convey orders for working the
guns on each deck at fore and aft quarters. Tubes were
also. passed from the poop to the tops. A tube was run
from the captain's cabin to the cockpit. All these tubes
were provided with signals different in tone to the boat-
swain's whistle, and most of them were in duplicate,
having different leads, that the same shot should not dis
able both. These extra tubes are at pre,ent denied. to
to the [toyal Alb4t, on what grounds is not stated.
The advantages of them were fully proved at Calais dur-
ing the coil) trkation of the French troops they did the
work of fifty messengers in quick time, and with ease.
The Royal Albert is progressing in her equipment,
both in rigging, gun fittings, and machinery, very ex-
pertly, considering she has only a few A B 's at present
entered ; fur the seamen say, as usual,. " When she is
rigged we shall then have no objeclion to join " The
principal part of the rouse-about work is being done by
the marines, the marine artillery being fully occupied
fitting gun breechings, stropping blocks, and reeving
gun tackles, which is done in such a manner as to reflect

awl fresh intrigues have been discovered

~,,tinst General Gtiyon, in which Kerlin Pacha,

Two Russian officers, who gave themselves up to
Zarif 13,cha as deserters have been discovered Co
he vile spies, and will be treated accordingly.
Secret information received from Georgia would
seem to show that the unfortunate natives will
sooner submit to the Russian yoke, and abandon all
idea of free loin, than fail in any attempt to obtain
it, which they look upon as very proballle, so lung
as the armies of Kars and LAziztan continue to re-
ceive checks. Tile Georgians seem woefully dis-
appointed that no European troops have, as yet,
been sent to aid the Turkish forces in Anatolia.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY-{THIS DAY)

(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.
IN RE G. B. MEDLEY.-EXTENSIVE FAILURE OF AN
UNDERWRITER.

To-day was appointed for the last examination of this
bankrupt, who bad carried on business as an under-
writer in partnership with Adams, at Lloyd's, and
Great Tower-street, City.
Mr. Linklater appeared on behalf of the present bank
rapt, and applied for an adjournment to an early day,
as Messrs. Harding and Pulleiu had not had time to
prepare the account.
Mr. Lawrance, for the assignees of Adams, thought
that the adj turnment should be made to the day op,
which Adams came up, so that the certificate meeting,
might be hell on the same day—separate petitions hav-
ing been filed.
Mr. Link later objected, as a long period might elap-e
before Adams' accountants were ready, as they depended
on returns from the West Indies.
The case was ultimately adjourned till the Ist of
September next.
From the statement of Messrs. Harding and Pullen,
it appears the debts amount to about 80,000/.0 the assett
are estimated at about 30,000/.

AUSTRIAN OCCUPATION OF THE

lities in consequence of the special treaty eoticludel
to that effvet between the Cabinet of Vienna and
the Ctbinet of Constantinople, with the consent of
the Cabinets of Lotplowand Paris, may he consi-
dered as formally decided cm."

MONTEN EGRO.
Several Russian officers awl agents who have till
now been busily at work in Montenegro, under the
able guidance of Colonel K iwalewsky, . passe:l
throu4l) Vienna in the course of last week, en route
for Sr. Petersburg, whither they were all ~r Jere
to return. C donut K.,walewsky, tnH chief of this
little corps, who has been staying here for the last
three weeks, is now preparing to proceed to Jassy,.
to join his regiment there, in .confortnity with-
orders received front St. Pet-rshur,g. From all
this, we may safely infer that Rassia has at length
abandoned her designs on Montenegro.
London, England, 1854-07-28

and public works came to upwards of 23,0001. In
1853 the expenditure was reduced to 36,4131.,
the "public works" amounting only to 5401.
These large sums do not include, let it be remem-
bered, all the heavy military charges. Some of
the salaries seem quite extravagant. Thus, the
governor's amounted down to 1851, staff included,
to 6,5001. a-year, but in the following year was
reduced to 4,5001. The Colonial Secretary,
and we presume his office establishment, are put
down at 3,1001., a most extravagant sum for such
a place. Then comes a treasurer at 2,0001., his
very salary amounting to a charge of 6 por cent.
on all the treasure in his keeping, and next we
have a Surveyor-General, at 1,2951., for an islet
that may he walked across in a couple of hours.
Tire " Ecclesiastical" expenditure is modest, al-
though it includes a bishop—only 800/., and the
" Elueational" expenditure—in the sense of eco-
nomy, but in no other—is even edifying, namely,
in the last and largest year of it, 103/. 6s. Bd., or
three-fourths of a penny a head on the whole po-
pulation, and about one-thirtieth part of Mr.
Secretary's salary 1 We think we have heard of an
English opium merchant of Canton, who has given
out of his own pocket ten times as much for a
similar object. Let us, in justice, add that the
gentleman who brought down the expenses of
Hong Kong from 62,000/. to 36,000/. was the late
governor, Sir George Bonham, a man of firmness,
discretion, and common sense—the rarest of all
senses, and the most useful, in the government of
mankind.

Of the trade of Hong Kong we have no account;
and, indeed, it is probably so mixed up with that
of Canton, that it would be difficult to render one.
We may learn, however, the extent of accommoda-
tion which the settlement has afforded to commerce
since its foundation, by the number of vessels
which anchor yearly in its harbour. In 1842, the
first year of ourloccupation, the number of large
shipping, under no fewer than 28 different flags,
was 391, with a tonnage of 136,346 ; whereas in
1853 the ships had increased to 1,1U3, and their
burden to 447,053 tons. Besides these, Chinese
boats and vessels plied in the bays of Hong Kong
in 1853 to the number of 1,868, having a popula-
tion on board of 13,119 persons, of whom no
fewer than 3,357 were women.—Daily News.

THE BALTIC.

DANTZIC, Thursday, July 27.—The Hecla and
Valorous have cannonaded Boomersund, without
loss to either vessel. The Valorous got ashore, but
got off, though with considerable damage. The Eng-
lish and French admirals are at Ledsund. Rear-
Admiral Martin is at Helsingfors. Rear-Admiral
Corry goes home sick, in the Dauntless. Rear-
Admiral Plumridge, with blockships and paddles
at Boomersuud. The Nicolai arrived on Thursday.
The Gazette of Eastern Prussia, under the head
of Pillau, the 19th, says :—" Last evening, an
English war steamer took a Dutch vessel, the
Wilmina, in this roadsted. That vessel was laden-
with iron, wine, stuffs, coffee, and cheese, whil
slie was conveying from Amsterdam to Pillau
ac
Konigsberg, and was sailing under a Dutch flag.
Nevertheless she was seized arid brought into port
as suspected of carrying provisions of war destined
for Russia."

A leiter from Hamburg of the 24th inst. says
" Yesterday, as we learn by telegraph, 25 vessels of
the combined fleets made their appearance before
the principal island of the Aland group, and 20
other vessels of war of these fleets had arrived at
SQderarm-Baak. We may consequently bear at
any moment of a decisive attack on the fortifica-
tions of that island. Immediately after the arrival
of General Baraguay d'Hilliers at Helsingor, be
landed and proceeded to Copenhagen. The whole
of the squadron from Calais is now, after a quick
passage, in the Danish waters. Two vessels were
on the 22d at Helsingor, and two at Copenhagen*
and it is announced that seven others have cast
anchor in Loge Bay, whence they will 80°.n
enter the Baltic. The health of the crews IS
said to be excellent. The Danish squadron under
Admiral Mourier was cruising on the 22d near
Moen."

MONTENEGRO.

Several Russian officers and agents who have till
now been busily at work in Montenegro, under the
able guidance of Colonel Kowalewsky, passed
through Vienna i❑ the course of last week, en route
for St. Petersburg, whither they were all ordered
to return. C.)lonel Kowalewsky, the chief of this
little corps, who has been staying here for the last
three weeks, is now preparing to proceed to Jassy,
to join his regiment there, in conformity with
orders received from St. Pet(,rAburg. From all
this, we may safely infer that Russia has at length
abandoned her designs on Montenegro..

CON-ST A.NTiL4uPLE.

A letter from Ginstantinople of the 13th,
says :—" Accounts from Baldchill state that the
allied squadrons were ready to sailrbut had been
detained by Mars!ial St. Afaanl, who was
desirous that they should not leave until something
poitive was known; as to the co-operation which
might be hoped for from Austria. This point
must be 1-)y this time cleared up, and the combined
fleet will speedily set sail. In the opinion of all
naval men it is necessary to have troops to laud in
order to 1:e able to accomplish something decisive,
but in this season that may be done withou loss
of time and without dittioulty. When the old
Hospodars are re-installed in Moldavia, and 'Pal,
lachia they will etch be accompanied by a Turkish
cominissioi.er invested with extensive powers, in
order to make their authority respected and to
prevent the abuse of it. It is s tit that these com-
missioners have been already appointed, anti are
Soliman Paella, and Ahmed Nitik Effendi, who
was recently ambassador in Persia. A grand
council was held at the Porte to-day in order to
devise measures for reducing the price of bud,
which is now excessive."

A,lvices .d• the 17th state that some deaths from
cholera. had occurred in the fleet among the French
troops.

Same disturbances had taken placent Gallipoli

Dearness of provisions was felt at Smyrna.
3,000 men and 15 guns have been embarked in
Turkish vessels for Batoum ; 8,000 for Tschuruk.

about it.—ln haste. _ _ _

Omer Pasha has transferred his head• quarters to

RUSSIAN INFLUENCE IN PERSIA.

Intelligence from Persia, via Kars, is of a very
tmsatiifactory nature, The general opinion enter;
ta.ined by the higher classes of Persians is, that the
weak Shah will ultimately side with the strong
Czar. Several Russian agents from Herat and
Khiva had secretly reached Teheran, where money
was scarce and business at a stand-siill, and so
likewise in the once flourishing commercial city of
Tabreez. Tile newly-appointed chargé d'affaires,
M. Anitchkoff, who
_hail at length reached Tehe-
ran, and relieved Prince Dolgorouky, will, from
his knowledge of Persian politics, acquire I from a
Ion(' rtsi.lence as consul at Tabreez, no doubt mate-
rially change the aspect of affairs between the two
countries, to tire detriment of Great Britain and
France, the present enemies of Russia. A rumour
was current that Colonel Sheil, the British minis-
ter, now on leave in England, would shortly return
to resume his functions, when the chargé d'Affaires,
Mr. Thompson,- would take his turn of absence. M.
Honeycoff, appointed to be Russian consul-general
at Tabreez, is spoken of as a highly talented dip-
lomatist, and one likely to keep her Britannic Ma-
jesty's • representative thereat (also of no mean
ability) constantly on the alert. Some Russian
agents have latelybeen sent on a visit to the Koords,
encamped at Mahmandie. and the Kuzlee
From Kars to Makou they were escorted by two

THE AFFAIRS OF GREECE.

ATHENS, July 16.—The political sky of Greece
assumes every day a gloomiE.r aspect, notwithstand-
ing the continual efforts of the new Ministry to re-
meth the evils occasioned hy this headlong move-
ment.

A petition, from which the following pa4saget, are
extracted, has hen received by the Council of Mi-
nisters. It is dived Athens, June 19 (July 1), and
is signed "Theodore Grivas, D. Tzaini Kariatassns,
Papakosta Tzania,las, by delegation of those who
have followed us in our quality as chiefs of the in-
surrection in Epirus, Thessaly, and Macedonia:"--
" Returned to independent Greec-', by order of her Go-
vernment, we wish, before all, to express our thanks to it
for having saved the nation from the wrath of the two pro.
tatting powers, and for having restored us to the rat&
which we formerly possessed.
"The only aim which we proposed to ourselves in cwss•
ing the frontier and iu tteading on the sacred soil of our
fathers has been the deliverance of our brothers from the
Ottoman yoke ; besides this we have been induced to do so
by the following motives : •

HEALTH OP LONDON DURING THE WEEK.

(Front the Report of the Registrar-General. )
In the week that ended last Saturday the total num-
ber of deaths registered in London was 1,008, nearly the
.4arce as in the previous week. I❑ the ten correspond-
ing weeks of the years 1844-53 the average number was
1,016, which, with a correction for increase of popula-
tion, gives 1,118. Last week's return, in which the
leaths are more than a hundred less than the estimated
Imount, shows a favourable state of the public health at
a time when it is threatened with a renewal of the cholera
epidemic.

The: deaths returned last week as caused by zymotic
diseases were 293, whilst the corrected average is 342 ;
they show an advance on the previous week. Small-pox
carried off 12 children, and 4 persons of 20 years and
upwards, whilst scarlatina has increased its weekly pro-
portion of fatal cases to 80. The latter disease has
visited some families with severity, and in the present
returns an instance is recorded in which three chit-
' siren died of it in the same family within six days.
Diarrhoea has increased, and cholera has suddenly
sprung into activity ; the deaths from the former
rose in the last two weeks from 46 to 58 ; those
by cholera from sto 26. The Eastern Districts, espe-
cially Limehouse, are the chief field of its earliest ope-
rations.
Last week the births of 821 boys and 776 girls—in
all, 1,597 children, were registered in London. In the
6 corresponding weeki of the years 1845-63 the average
number was 1,267:
At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean
height of the barometer in the week was 29,954 inches.
The mean temperature was 63.2 deg., which is 1.3 deg.
above the average of the same week in 38 years. The
temperature increased towards the end of the week, and
the mean daily temperature was above the average on
the first and last three days ; on Saturday it was 6.7
deg. above it. The highest temperature was 84 deg.,
and occurred on Saturday; the lowest was 50.7 deg., on
Wednesday. The mean dew-point temperature was 53.4
deg.; and between this and the mean air tempefature
the difference was 9.8 deg. No rain fell, and the wind
was mostly in the south-west:

MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
There has been an increased arrival of home-grown
'wheat up to our market coastwise, the supply during the
week being upwards of 1,003 quarters. To•day's market
was scantily supplied with land-carri ,ge samples, yet the de-
mand was in a depressed state, and pima were again lower
to purchase. However, so little business was tranwmteo
that the quotations were almost nominal. Several of the
importers having withdrawn their wheats for the present,
the quantity of foreign wheat on show was comparatively
small. However, to fo'ce sales lower rates must have
been accepted. In floating cargoes nothing doing.
We had a dull inquiry for barley, the nature of which
had a downward tendency.
Malt moved off slowly, at barely Monday's decline.
Oats—the supply of which was good —were dull, and
fully kid per quarter lower.
Beans, peas, and flour wero exceedingly dull.

MILITARY.

TEM COLONELCY OF THE 3D BOPPS.—In yesterday's
paper we recorded the demise of the veteran General 31r
H. King, who for some years was colonel of this old and
much di,tinguished corps. Without attempting to anti-
cipate the decision of the military authorities, we may
express a hope that this regiment will be given to the
father of the gallant defender of Silistria, Lieut.-General
the H‘in. H. E. Butler, who, strange to add, served
along with General King in Egypt 53 years since. Sir
Henry Clinton' so celebrated during the American war,
andthe Earl of Amherst, have been amongst the colonels
of this regiment. _ _

73d Foot—Two privates of this regiment fainted
whilst on the parade ground in Guernsey, a few days
since, owing to the pressure of the collar or stock as now
worn.

The number of drafts from different corps, at present
lying in Cork ga.rnson, amount to 19 or 20. The greater
part of these wilt shortly depart for their respective des-
tinations.

On Wednesday a detachment of the 15th Hussars,
comprising 70 rank and file, under the command of
Captain Holcomb, and 65 horses, embarked on board
the steamer Sylph, at Dublin, for Plymouth, en route
to the seat of war. Vessels are lying at Cork and Wa-
terford f it the purpose of conveying horses to the head-
quarters of the 15th, and it is reported that when the
regiment is full mounted it will be despatched to the
seat of war in the E tst.
Th,, 214 North Briti h Fusileers are expected to ar-
rive-in Cork this week or next from Dublin, to await
the arrival of transports for conveyance to the East.
The 2(1, or Queen's Regiment, is 1,100 strong, and
the d.pot, which remains at Buttevant, 600, notwith-
,tarolinz that it recently gave 320. volunteers to other
regi penis.

The ith .Dragoon Guards will be concentrated in Dub-
n next week.

Lieutenant• General M'Donald retires from the Kil-
kenny Staff on the 30th of September ; also Lieutenant-
Genet al Eden, from the Adjutant General's Department,
Dublin. Lieutenant-General Thomas continues iu com-
mand at Relfa.t to the Ist of July next.
In the evening ot yesterday, at about 7 o'clock a de-
tachint>nt of the artillery force, comprising 104 privates,
3 sergeants, and 6 corporals, under the command of
c!rofton, with Captain Wavy- .of tbe acme faro*,

To-day was appointed for the last examination of this
bankrupt, who had carried on business as an under-

Mr. Linklater appeared on behalf of the present bank•
