T.IIE CHOLERA.

STOCKHOLM.

to him by cam.

Admiralty, Oct. 7.
" Sir,—Having laid before my Lords Commismionera
of the Admiralty your letter of the 4th inst., received
this day, I am commanded to convey to you the ewes-
_syn of their Lordships' great satisfaction at your
p oceedings.
" My Lords highly approve of the firmness, energy,
and good judgment with which you have carried out
their instructions, and of all the steps you have taken in
the execution of their orders ; and their lordships desire
that you will convey to the officer!, seamen, and marines
employed under your command, including the master,
second master, and crew of the Breadalbane, the like
expression of their lordships' high approval of the manner
in which you speak of their having done their duty.
" I am further commanded not to conclude this dis-
patch without signifying the deep regret with which my
lords have heard of the untimely death of an officer so
much esteemed by them as Lieutenant Bellot, of the
French Navy. " I am, &c.,
" W. A. B. HAMILTON.
" Commander Inglefield, R.N., H.M.
Steam-vessel Phoenix."
The officers and men were much gratified when they
heard the letter read, and previous to separating gave
three times three hearty cheers for Captain Inglefield,
and many of them audibly expressed their wishes that
they might soon serve under him again. A finer or
more healthy looking body of men were never paid off
at this dockyard.

SHEERNESS, OCT. 25.
The Diamond, 28 guns.—Captain William Peel has
commissioned this frigate. She is now in No. 4 dock,
preparing for sea.
The Horatio, 24, screw steam-frigate, Commander
Robert Jenner.—Several fine young men and boys have
arrived as volunteers for the navy, and have this day
been sent on board this ship.

The last accounts from Stockholm render it probable
that the epidemic is nearly at an end in that city. The
cases are not only becoming daily fewer in number, but
milder in character—the most certain sign of the decline
of the epidemic. On the 14th inst., being the 62d day
from the first outbreak of the epidemic, the returns were
—Of premonitory diarrhoea, taken ill during the last
24 hours, 10 ; convalescent, 44 ; passed into cholera., I ;
remaining under treatment, 265. Of cholera, taken ill
during the last 24 hours, 7 ; convalescent, 6 ; passed into
collapse, 1 ; remaining under treatment, 152 ; dead, 8.

during the prevalence of epidemic cholera, in 1831-2,
