NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, MAY 20.—Arrived this afternoon,
his Majesty's ship Blonde, 46, Capt. Sir T. Pasley,
Bart., from the Mediterranean, but the wind being
foul she has not yet arrived at the quarantine ground,
and consequently no news from her up to post hour.
His Majesty's ship Mersey, 26, Capt. G. W. C.
Cour enay, was passed by the Brunswick, Plymouth,
and Portsmouth steamer this morning, and may be
expected with a freight of dollars every minute.
Sailed this morning his Majesty's ship St. Vin-
cent, 120, Capt. Senhouse, with Vice-Admiral Sir
H. Hotham's flag flying, destined to take command
of the Mediterranean squadron. Immediately on her
arrival at Malta, the Britannia, 120, Vice-Admiral
Sir P. Malcolm, will return to this port and be fitted
for the Commander-in-Chief's flag. The departure
of so large a ship from this port, drew toge'llir a
large assemblage of families of distinction, and
amongst them we may reckon—Earl Northesk, Sir
R. Stopford, Sir G. C. Hammond, Sir H. Burrard,
Sir E. Tucker, Sir J. Wilshed, Lord Hotham, Sir
T. Rowley, Colonel Dyke, Admiral Hill, &c. &c.
Above a thousand souls sailed in her, and a finer or
better disciplined ship never left England for any
foreign station. At six o'clock, P.M. it was thought
that the St. Vincent would return to the anchorage
the wind getting round to the south-west.
The Flying Fish, Dutch brig of war, Captain
Tuning, has been cruising its the Channel for the
protection of the Dutch flag. She arrived here yes-
terday, and sailed again this day.
Of the squadron assembling at Spithead the fol-
lowing have arrived :—His Majesty's ship Donegal,
76, Captain J. Dick, a remarkably fine ship; and
the Wellesley, 76, Captain Rowley. The Cale-
donia, 120, and Revenge, 76, are expected from
Plymouth every moment. Besides the Prince Re-
gent, Talavera, and Asia line•of-battle ships, the
frigates Barham, Alfred, and Curacoa will also join
the squadron.

His Majesty's ship Pallas goes out of harbour to-
morrow direct for Plymouth.
His Majesty's schooner arrived from Plymouth
on Thursday.

The Noble owner of the favourite for the late
Derby is said to be a loser to the tune of upwards of
20,0001. by the " untoward event."
DEATH OF THE EARL OF LISBURNE.—
This Noble Earl expired on Wedni sday, in the 63d year

his claim to the Earldom of Devon. By the Countess,
whose dissolution occurred, December, 1821, his Lordship

in the House of Lords

WHITE CONDUIT HOUSE AND GARDENS.
THESE Splendid GARDENS OPEN on
AIONDAY EVENING, for the SUMMER Season.

Great improvements have been made, and the Pro-

tition shall only tend to increased exertion to please—to
merit that preference of which it is his pride to boast.
The ENTERTAINMENTS on MONDAY, and during
the WEEK, will be ENTIRELY NEW. Some of the
First Professional Characters have been engaged, and there
will be a continued variety of amusement.

On MONDAY there will be a GRAND GALA, con.
sisting of a Concert of Vocal and Instrumental Music, Ballet,
Performance on the Slack Rope, by the inimitable

ments.—The Gardens will be opened at Seven o'clock.

rate charges.
