NEWS FROM THE LEVANT.

Extract of a letter from Marmonce Bay, 26th ultimo, in the
Malta Times:—

" On Sunday, the 24th, the greater part of the Ottoman
fleet arrived from Alexandria, and, entering the harbour with
a fresh and fair breeze, took up their berths beside the Austrian
squadron and our own, in very superior style, considering their
long detention by Mehemet Ali. Their appearance in coming
in was most imposing, a huge three-decker of 140 guns, the
Mahmoudie, leading the van, with an Admiral's flag at the
main, whose name I have not been able to learn. She was
fullowed by another three-decker, also bearing an Admiral's
flag, five two-deckers, nine frigates, and four smaller vessels, in
all twenty sail ; but another three-decker and several other
ships are hourly expected to heave in sight. The Tahiri Ba-
hiri, Ottoman steamer, arrived here yesterday, and passed
Admiral Walker Pacha, with his flag in a double-banked
frigate two days since, so he is looked for in the course cf to-
morrow ' • and soon after his arrival Admiral Sir Robert Stop-
ford will sail for Malta in the Cyclops, taking the Princess
Charlotte and Thunderer with him. Rear-Admiral Sir John
Ommanney will then assume the command of the division
of the fleet left behind in this bay, consisting of his flag-ship
the Britannia, 120, Captain John Drake ; Powerful, 84, Com-
modore Sir C. Napier, Captain Mansel ; Howe, 120, Captain
Sir W. 0. Pell ; Vanguard, 80, Captain Sir D. Dunn ; Rod-
ney, 92, Captain Maunsell ; Calcutta, 84, Sir S. Roberts ;
Revenge, 76, Captain Hon. W. Waldegrave ; Cambridge, 7ti,
Captain Barnard; Castor, 36, Captain C. Patey (acting);
Daphne, 18, Captain Dalling; and Wasp, 16, Commander
Glanville. Commodore Napier is at Cairo, and the Stromboli
is waiting for him at Alexandria, where the Carysfort still re-
mains."

The subjoined shipping intelligence is supplied by the Malta
papers :
" The Cyclops steam-frigate, Captain H. Austin, C. 8., ar-
rived in port en the 2d instant, bearing the flag of the Naval
Commander-in-Chief, Admiral Sir Robert Stopford, G.C.8.,
&c. She left Marmoriee on the 28th ult„ and the Princess
Charlotte sailed on the same day for Malta. On her pas-
sage hither the Cyclops rode out a strong westerly gale dur-
ing 34 hours, in the bay of Servia. The Thunderer left Mar-
morice for Malta on the 27th. There were lying in that bay,
on the 28th, the Britannia, with the flag of the Rear- Ad-
miral Sir John A. Ommanney, K.C.8.; Powerful, Calcutta,
Revenge, Vanguard, Cambridge, of the line, Castor frigate,
and Wasp sloop. The ships were very healthy ; the Daphne
had gone to Smyrna ; the Benbow was at Beyrout ; Dido,
Vesuvius, and Hecate at Jaffa ; Magicienne supposed to be at
Acre, and all the marines embarked. The principal part of
the Turkish fleet arrived at Marmorice on the 24th ult., con-
sisting of two 3-deckers, three 2-deckers, nine frigates, and
five corvettes and brigs. The remaining ships were at Bud-
room, with the exception of a 74-gun frigate, bearing the flag
of Javer Pacha, Sir Baldwin Wake Walker, K.C.8., who left
Alexandria on the 23d. Mustapha Pacha was in command of
the Turkish fleet in Marmorice, and one other flag, that of the
Riali Bey, flying."
The Mediterraneo, of Malta, states that Captain Stewart, of
the Benbow, has been ordered to Jaffa to keep up communica-
tions with General Jochmus, and to instruct that officer not to
harass any further the retreat of Ibrahim Pacha. A party of
700 Turkish cavalry, well organised, have taken possession of
Sidon and Acre.

The Marquis and Marchioness of Londonderry left Malta for
Naples on the Ist inst.
The Archduke Frederic of Austria sailed from Marmorice
Bay on the 19th ult., for Trieste.
