On Tivsdav the following Gentlemen passed their exa-
minations at the Royal Naval College to serve as Lieute-
nants in her Majesty's service :—Messrs. Gerard, John Napier,
and William IL Surridge.
It is with great pleasure that I have to announce the pro-
motion to the rank of Lieutenant of Mr. Henry Dumaresq,
late mate of the Britannia. He was one of the unf. rtnnates
who attended the m-eting of Mates at the George Hotel in
the affair of Colonel Lewis. Lord Minto, by this act, has
given le:other proof that the meeting alluded to has (so far
es its tendency went) been forgotten, and this promotion has
given universal suttsfaction at this port. He has served a
period of nearly seventeen years. and passed his examination
for the rank which hr has at length attained in June 1828; ■
more deserving, or better officer, -the Admiralty could not
have sel,cted. Only one other (as far as I know) now re-
mains for Lord Minto to confer the same promotion on, viz.,
Mr. Henry T. 134 e, and should his Lordship be pleased to
raise hint to the same rank, he might confidently rely on that
effi,:er's attachment to the service, and give satisfaction to
every one who has had the pleasure of his acquaintance. Indeed
for myself, I promise my Lord Minto, that if his promotion
takes pl...ce soon, I will write arid send him an Epithalamium
on the occasion of his daughter's late marriage.
