suite, whom she will embark it is expected on Satur-
day for Madeira.
A grand concert was given last evening at the
Queen's Rooms, Portsea, by the Portsmouth Dock-
yard Battalion, which well deserves mention. There
were upwards of 1,000 persons present, comprising
some of the most respectable families in the borough,
the naval, military, and civil authorities, and a large
assemblage of visitors. The selections were from the
choicest works of Bishop, Webbe, Horn, M'Kellar,
Hawes, Shield, Spafforth, Calcott, &c. Both vocal
and instrumental performances were executed in a
style of superior musical excellence, which would not
have disgraced the Hanover. square Rooms. Lieut.-
Colonel Fincham deserves the very highest praise for
his gratifying entertainment, which we trust will be
repeated.
The Amphion, 36, screw-steam frigate, Captain
IV. S. Williams, was undocked to-day and removed
alongside the Blake hulk. She has bent sails, and
will very shortly be ready for sea.

Lord A. Fitzclarence, was taken into dock to-day to

been on shore during her Majesty's late excursion to
Scotland.
Rear-Admiral John Pasco, late captain of the
Victory, left that ship to-day, having been superseded
by Captain R. A. Yates. It must have been truly
gratifying to the gallant veteran that the crew of the
Victory, on his leaving, spontaneously sprang into the
rigging, and greeted him with such a round of hearty
cheers as seldom salutes the ears of a naval captain.
The Lightning left this afternoon for Plymouth, hav-
ing on board the gallant Rear-Admiral and lady, and
also a number of supernumeraries.
