NAVAL IN TELLIGENCE.

The promotions for the hard service in Sir James
Ross's expedition have not yet been made, but it is
expected that they will be promulgated next week—
on Monday, perhaps. As the promotions are for
eervicc, the Treasury Board have to be con-
sulted on the matter, and this fact may in some
n-leasu-e account for the delay that has taken place.
We trust that there is no squabbling about shillings
at d bixpencqs with reference to the well-deserved
advancement of those who have encountered the
privations and dangers of such a dreary and perilous
enedition as that on which the officers of the Enter-
' prise and Investigator have been employed, but that
the Government, on behalf of the country, will dig-
tribute with a liberal hand their acknowledgments
and rewards amongst al! classes of officers and men
engaged.
We are sorry to hear that Captain Sir James Ross
is seriously indisposed at his residence, Pall-mall.
We also regret that Rear -Admiral Superintendent
Prescott, C. 8., of Portsmouth Dockyard, has been
suffering from illness during the past week.

BLACKWALL RAILWAY.—STEAM-BOATS _The
tentiol of the proprietors, at their general meetings, 1:10
been frequently drawn to the arrangements made lit "so
Brunswick. wharf for the accommodation of stealwb°-
from Gravesend, Woolwich, &c. By the regultsli°,.l3l.°
hitherto made, a preference of favourable hoard 10
, to
landing has been given to such boats as consenten tee
land their passengers there exclusively. The corneli!,al
have had a long conference with one of the prieit a
members of a steam boat company, which has dec',,h-eof
to touch at the Brunswick- .hart, in cons( qttenc-jega
being suhject to the disadiantage of having the did
favourable hours assigned to them. The committe! 0,
not hear any objection taken to the equity of allowilfor
preference under the circumstances stated, but t
think that it may be a very proper subject of dellb,eor
tion, whether it would not be more politic to withe,riob
all restriction, and to offer more generally such Neill., of
and accommodations as would induce a larger nuusbecv
boats to land and embark passengers at the Brunsivi
wharf. Of
