NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, THURSDAY.—A court of inquiry has
been sitting to-day Cal hoard the Sphynx steam-sloop,
to adjudge the blame in the matter of that vet,sel
coming in collision with the merchant barque, QIItAll
of Britain,

"The royal yacht Victoria and Albert, Captain Lord
Adolphus Fi zelarence, G.C.H., is expected here on Sa-
turday from Scotland, her Majesty and the Court baying
dettrmined to rettirn to the metropolis overland.
The Encounter, screw-corvette, and the Sphynx,
paddle tearn-sloop, aro ordered to be prepared for
officers and men.

The Myrtle steam- tender left to-day for Plymouth,
with supernumeraries from the Daedalus and Alarm.
The Flying Fish, 12, Commander Patty, was un-
docked to-day, after having her copper scrubbed, and
gave place to the Elfin royal dispAtch yacht, Master
Commander Bslliston, to have some pipes fixed in her
bottom connected with the steam escape.
FRIDAY.—Mr. Grant, of the Clarence-yard, exhibited
this at iernoon a further improved cooking and distilling
apparatus, whose simplification is even more perfect than
that of those already in use on board her Mjcsty's
ships Illustrious, Arrogant, Reynard, and Plumper.
Tbis new structure distils 30 gallons of pure aviated
water from salt per hour with the same fuel as employed
iu cooking the victuals, which is done at the same time
to 700 men. We believe this apparatus is intended for
tie new frigate Termagant. Many naval and scientific
cfficcrs were present at the exhibition of its success to-
day, and all were struck with its capabilities to accom-
plish the objects sought.
The Sphynx steam sloop is ordered to be commissioned
at this port by Commander H. Schomberg (1841) fur
foreign service, iesides whom the following officers have
ken appointed to her:—Lieut. H. P. de Kantzow; Mas-
ter, T. W. Sullivan; Paymaster and Purser, E. B. Ito-
bins; Clerk, R. T. Rayner.
The Encounter was hauled down in readiness for the
pendant this morning.
The Flying Fish hauled off alongside the Veteran hulk
this morning.
Lieutenant Kaye, director of the Magnetic Observa-
tory at Hobart Town, Van Diemen's Land, is promoted
to the rank of Commander.

GARRISON APPOINTMENT.
The office of Town-major of this garrison is vacant by
the promotion of Captain Lyons to u Majority in the 23d
Royal Welch Fusileers. It is hoped the.berth will be
given to Lieutenant O'Brien, of the 77th, who was acting
Town-major until the appointment of Captain Lyons, and
is now again doing the duty.

ROYAL MARINES.
The following prumotions and appointments have
taken place, consequent on the retirement on full pay 4,f
Captain Peter John James Dusantoy, dated the 21st of
August, 1849:

First Lieutenant Charles Ogilvy Hawley, of the Ports-
mouth division, to be Captain, and appointed to the same
division, vice Dusantoy-. &c.
Second Lieutenant William Henry Worthy Bennett,
of the Plymouth division, to be First Lieutenant, and
appointed to the Portsmouth division, vice Hawley, pro-
moted.
WooLtvicu, Atrcusr 24.—The Vulcan steam troop
vessel, of 1,740 tons burden, constructed of iron by Mr.
Mare, Blackwell, and fitted with auxiliary engines of
350-horse p wer, and a screw-propeller by Messrs.
George and Sir John Rennie, went down the river on a
preliminary trial at 5.10 A.M . to-day, under the charge
of Mr. Gosman, Master of the Fisgard frigate, and
having on board Captain Sir Frederick Nic9lson, Cap-
tain T. Harvey, Captain W. H. Stewart, Captain Rod-
ney Mundy, Commander H. Blair, Commander C. Cod-
rington Forsyth, and Lieutenant T. Tickell, R N., at
present studying steam at Woolwich Dockyard; Lieute-
nant Echapperie, of the Russian Navy, Air. George
Rennie, Mr. Humphries, Chief Engineer, and Mr.
Trickett, Assistant to the Chief Engineer, Woolwich
Dockyard; Mr. Dinnen, Inspector of Steam Machinery
Afloat; and Mr. Casey, Chiet Engineer to Captain Aus-
tin's department.
The engines are on the direct action principle, and
have four cylinders, each having a two-feet stroke, and
they are so admirably constructed and well put together
as to give a continuous action of considerable power and
great velocity, the screw-propeller making 67 revolu-
tions per minute, the screw being 14 feet in diameter,
and the pitch 16 feet 6 inches. On arriving at the
measured mile at Long,Reach the time was taken, and
the Vulcan accomplished the distance in 5.13 minutes,
with the tide, being at the rate of 11.502 knots per
hour. Oa returning against the tide, the measured
mile was run in 7.47 minutes, or at the rate of 7.709 knots
per hour, giving an average speed of 9 605 knots p, r
hour, a very sati:factory result to be obtained from
auxiliary power in a vessel of such magnitude as the
Vulcan is. The engines worked well during the trial,
and are amply protected, being considerably under the
water line. The Vulcan returned to Woolwich, where
she arrived at 7.55 A 31. Mr. Stuart, the pilot, had a very
arduous task to navigate her back, the river being so full
of vessels crossing each other on their various tacks,
with but little wind to enable them to move, except with
the tidal current.

The;Lightning, steam-vessel, Master-Commander Pet-
ley, arrived this morning at Woolwich, from attending
on the Lords of the Admiralty during their visit to the
Cnannel Islands and eastern naval ports.
The Lizard steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Hol-
linworth, was paid off at this port to-day.
The Melampus, 42, Commander Mason (acting cap-
tain, was paid off yesterday at Chatham, and several of
her crew passed through Woolwich to-day for Liverpool
and other ports.
Ttie Monkey steam-vessel towed the Princess Royal to
Deptford 3-cute' day, to be revietualled previous to the
embadcltion of the company of Hop.* Artillery for
Gibraltar. The Monkey also followed the Vu.cin down
the river to-day during the preliminary trial of the latter
vessel.

Orders were received at this dockyard on Thursday
appointing Mr. Jenkins to the vacant storckeepership a!
Devorport, and Mr. Gottlieb to that at Woolwich,
caused by Mr. Jenkins's removal, the Admiralty having
been pleased to make this arrangement in compliance
with the mutual preferences of these gentlemen for the
yards to which they are now respectively nominated.
CHATHAM, A co. 24. The Mean( e, 80 guns, Acting
Cointuandtr In4letield, and the Molampus, 42, Captain.
Mason (acting), were paid off into ordinary on Thurs-
day, the 23d inst. The marines, consisting of 1 lieute-
nant, 2 sergeants, and 31 privates, embarked from the
Meanee the same afternoon on board the Pigmy steam-
packet, for Portsmouth, to join the head-quarters of their
division.

The Phaeton, 50 guns, which was ordered to be fitted
as an advanced ship at this port, is now to be navigated
to Sheet ueess to be fitted for commission.
The Dariv, 12 guns, is to be taken into dock next
ek, vacated by the Juuo, 26, for the purpose of under-
going a complete repair.
The Gloucester, 50, has been removed from Chatham
to Gillingham reach.
The Black Prince, 72, in ordinary, has been fitted for
the rec,ption of 500 marines and their families, in the
event of it being necessary to send them from the bar-
racks on account of the cholera. The bedding and
stores are to be furnished from the Ordnance Depart-
ment.

Arrived the barque Edmund, Mr. R. Bickford master,
from Sierra Leone, with a cargo of African teak tor this
dockyard. The Falmouth lighter has also arrived wish
stores from Plymouth, and the Aid naval lighter sailed
this day with stores for Portsmouth dockyard.
Mr. Clotber, timber inspector, has been sent from this
yard, accompanied by a stationed shipwright, to select
timber in different parts of the kingdom for this dock-
yard.

Edward Adams, first-class joiner of this yard, has
been appointed leading man, vice Colgate, promoted to
inspector at Sheerness. _ _

W. Owen, shipwright's apprentice, son of James
Owen, a shipwright in this yard, has been selected by
the Admiralty to study at the school at Portsmouth.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, AUG. 24.—Tho arrivals are limited.
The continued fine weather causes our millers to restiict
their purchases as much as possible, and we have little
business pAs,,ing in any article; good English wheat
being in few hands nearly maintains late prices, whilst
foreign continues neglected. No change in the value of
oats, shelling, or khans, and the &mad trifling.

LIVERPOOL, AUG. 24. \;', e have had an arrival of
6,780 quarters of foreign, wheat the last two days, mostly
from, Dutch ports, but of other articles the supplies ale
trifling. The weuthcr is of the most splendid character
for cutting the en ps, which are ail truly fine in this
quarter. The business at our Corn Exchange this rnorn-
ing was ou limited scale. Purchases of wheat might have
been effected on easier terma. Approved brans of Flour
brought lute prices. There was no alteration on Tues-
day's quotations for either outs, barley, beans, or peas.
There v„,is less Indian corn offering, and, with a t;ptcu •
lave keling, it was considered 6d to is per qr. dearer
than on 'l'm sti,iy.

NEWBURY' AUG. 23.—To.clay'8 market is moderately
supp,ied with lvheat, some quaLtity of which consists of
the new crop; such is g( tier:illy of fine quality, and most
of it in good co;:oition, the weight varying from 63 io 65
pr bushel. New commauthd aready bale, at rates
from 48s to 54s per quarter. Old in slow request at
unaltered rates. Barley, Beans, Oats, and yea; moderato

supply, and in but little request, at about the rates of
last week.

EXETEit, AUGUST 24. Cattle Market There
was but a moderate supply of beasts driven in, btit the
market was well supplied with sheep and lambs. Most
of the fat bullocks met a ready sale, at from 83 to 9s per
score, the latter being the very top figure. As there
were many dealers in the market, things went off more
briskly than has been the case for the last two or
three weeks. Cows and calves from Bi, to 131. Barreners,
5, per score. Butchers' calves, to sd. Prime fat
wether sheep were worth full 5d per lb; ewes 431c1 to
411 per lb; fat lambs, sid. per lb. Store wether hogs,
253 to 323 each; store lambs, 15s to 18s ditto. Pork
Carcases—A. large supply considering the time of the
year, which could only be sold by taking lower prices
than last week. To-day prices ranged at from 8; to 9s,
per score. Pannier--Turkey poults, 4s to 5s 6d each;
geese, 5s to 6s 6d ditto; ducks, 3s 6d to 5s per couple;
fowls, 2s 6.1 to 4s ditto; leverets, 2s 6d to 3s 6d
each; pigeons, 10d ditto ; roasters, 4s 6d to 6s 6J
ditto. Butter, 10d to 141 per lb; eggs, 18 to
20 fur ls. Potatoes, 6d to 8d per score. Cora
Exchange—The market has not displayed much
animation to-day, although samples of wheat, both new
and old, have been plentiful. The new wheat is gene-
rally in good condition, f qual in value, and in the course
of a week or two will be worth more than old. Prices
to day have barely touched 5s Li per bushel for the best
samples; 5s 6d per bushel was offered by the millers, but
these terms were not generally agreed to by the growers,
who prefer waiting a little longer; for the best foreign
wheat 48s per quarter was asked, but up. to the time of
going to press that price had not been given. Foreign
d wheat was offered at 40s to 433 per:quarter. Foreign
barley for feeding. 3s 3d per bushel. English malting
barley about 3.s 9d to 3s 10d. Foreign oats, 2s 6d per
bushel. English ditto, 2s 6,1 to 2s 10d. Fine flour, 318
to 34s per sack of 2801bs, the latter figure being almost
nominal.— Western Times.

BRIST,'L SUGAR. MARKET, Alla. 24.—The market has
been rather freely supplied with samples this week,
chiefly by one of our largest importing houses, and about
GOO hhds, and tierces West India, mostly Trinidads,
have found bu 3 era, at from 363 to 37s 6d, which are con-
sidered very moderate prices, and confirm a decline of
from is to is 64 per cwt under the rate ruling here at
the commencement of the month. By public auction,
3.000 mats Mauritius (a damaged parcel) all found
buyers, at steady rates. Refined is without alteration.

BIRM INGHAM, AUGUST 24.
STOCK EXCHANGE. -There is decidedly a better feeling in the
market, although but little inclination to speculate is evinced at the
present moment. Prices remain little influenced by the recent rail-
way meetings. They continue firm, with a slight tendency to ad-
vance. London and North-Western are quoted at 150, but in thessof
as in almost all other shares, prices in Birmingham are in a greet
degree guided by the London Stock Exchange.
GLASGOW, AUGUST 23.
STOCK EXCHANGE.—The transactions to-day were as follow :--
Dundee and Perth, Quarters, 245.-1-Great North of Scotland, 45.--
York Newcastle, and Berwick (G. N. E. Purchase or Prefer-
once), 85s.

Yesterday the workmen employed in digging a
drain through Poet's-corner, Westminster Abbey, out-
side the southern wall of Henry Chapel, disco-
vered, three feet below the surface, an ancient stone
coffin, containing a skeleton still entire. There was no
lid to the coffin, and no date or other inscription to mark
the period at which the body was deposited in its present
resting place; but so long a time has elapsed siuce
interments could have been made where this relic
was found as to confer upon it a character of very re'
mote antiquity.
To CLEANSE OLD Conis.--In reply to a cont.'
spondent, who asks for a recipe for cleansing old coiner
copper, brass, and silver, and says he has a quantity.
found at Richborough Castle, Kent, we may state, that
the red rust may be removed from silver coins by vinegar
or by lemon juice, the green by a solution of ammonia;
the rust on copper or brass coins should not be disturbed,
as a coin which cannot be read when oxidizsd is seldom
improved by being cleaned, but often rendered quite We'
less—a graver may occasionally be employed, but its safe
use presumes a knowledge of the coin to be operated our
both portrait and legend.—The Builder.
