MUIR'S CHEAP EXCURSION TRAIN FROld LONDON
TO EDINBURGH.—It will be observed by an advertise-
ment in this day's Sun, that a cheap excursion train
starts from Euston-square for Edinburgh on Tuesday
morning first. When the Government trains started at
a penny per mile it was hailed as a boon by the public,
but the rates of the cheap trains leave them far behil,cl
in price, while they are equally comfortable. Computing
the distance going and returning, the third-zlass (covered
carriages) is, within afraction, five-sevenths of a farthing
per mile! second-class a fraction over a halfpenny per
mile ! ! and the first-class within the merest fraction of
three farthings and a half !!! Verily, these are the
days of cheap fares, and we would venture to aver that,
by this time twelvemonths many will have seen the
Scottish metropolis and Scottish lochs and scenery, who,
had fares continued as in days of yore, would never
have thought of it.
SOUTHAMPTON. T he old and highly-respectable
firm of Westlake and Co., corn-merchants, of this town,
has been obliged to suspend payment. They were
always considered very wealthy, and belonged to the
Society of Fiiends. They have issued a circular to
their creditors. Their liabilities are variously estimated,
160,000/. being the lowest.
MALT AND SUGAR.—The ale and porter brewed
from two thirds malt and one-third sugar is very supe-
rior to that brewed from all malt ; it. is stronger, finer,
and keeps better; no weather affects it, end the flavour
is very superior. Some brewers still brew entirely
from malt, but .they will not be able long to compete
with those who use sugar; they can brew cheaper, and
produce a better article, and one which is as fine as sherry
when a fortnight old.—From one who knows how to brew):
THE BISHOP or RIPON.—The Right Rev. the
Bishop of Ripon is now on a triennial visitation of his
diocese. His Lordship observed that he was aware that
many pious young men of the middle classes,who hadt
not the means or opportunity of studying for the
ministry, were, for want of a proper sphere of action in
the Church, driven to join the Dissenters. He therefore
recommended every incumbent to look round in his owa
neighbourhood among such pious young men, and to
propose to him the one who appeared the best qualified
for the work. He (the Bishop) would then examine
him, and, if approved of, would appoint him a Scripture
reader. The duty of such parties would be to visit from
house to house, hold meetings. read the Bible to the
people, and also the Common Prayers; but they would
be required to abstain from preaching. After two years
of a zealous and efficient discharge of these duties, they
would enjoy the privilege of being admitted to ?rdina-
den as deacons, after a second examination by himself.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY.—The Nautilus, 8, Lieut.-
Commander W. T. Rivers, arrived this morning from
Oporto, which she left two days before the packet,
consequently she brings no news. Yesterday, about
10 o'clock in the forenoon, she saw, about ten miles
south of the Lizard, a brig called the Horatio, of
South Shields, in distress, foremast and bowsprit
gone, and other serious damage sustained, having been
run into on the previous night, about nine o'clock, by
a steamer going eastward, but which after cutting the
brig down never stopped to see what was likely to be
the result or to render the slightest assistance. She
was abandoned yesterday about four P.M., as she was
then sinking, and being Indian corn and wheat laden,
he decks would be blown up as the corn got saturated.
The forecastle deck had already been stove in. She
was filling fast. The Nautilus took the whole of the
crew, nine in all, on board and brought them to this
port. The Nautilus attempted to tow the brig, and
carried away two hawsers in the attempt, when she
was obliged to leave her to her fate.
The Lively lighter returned last evening to this
port, after an absence of eight months on the coasts
and rivers of Ireland, conveying provisions for the
relief of the destitute. She brought 10 marines from
Cork, some empty casks, and a quantity of tar from
Plymouth.
The Blazer steam-vessel, Commander 11. E. Win-
grove (acting), went out of harbour last evening, and
anchored at St. Helen's. She sailed thence before
daylight this morning for Harwich to resume her
survey.
The inspection of the Fury and Trincomalee by
the Commander-in-Chief has been again deferred on
account of the boisterous state of the weather till to-
morrow, when, if it sheuld be more moderate, they
will be inspected, and paid advance the same day.
The Amphitrite will also he paid advance.
The Herald, 26, Captain Kellet, was at Callao on
the 12th of July, a letter from her of which date
says—" We arrived here on the 29th ult., and leave
for Huaine in six or eight days. The Second Mas-
ter (Mr. John Ottley) of the Pandora has declined
the service, and Mr. James Pyper, of the Juno, is
appointed in his place. The mates of the Herald and
Pandora are promoted. There are no mates to be had
here. We are to be at Panama in November."
The Cormorant steam-sloop, Commander Seymour,
was at Arica on the 4th of July, a letter of which
date says—" We have been here fifty days, and are
quite tired of the cold. We sail hence on the 6th
for Valparaiso, there to wait for the Carysfort, from
Mexico, and then to England. We shall leave the
Pacific in August or September."
The Nereus, store depot, Master Commander
Brown, was at Valparaiso on the 28th cf June, a
letter of which date says—" We are all well and
alsne. The Constance (transport) will leave next
month. The Calypso, 20, Captain Worth, is gone
the round of the islands. The Juno, 26, Captain
Brake, is with the Admiral. The Spy, brigantine, is
gone to Mexico, and the Herald and Pandora, sur-
veying-vessels, are to meet the Admiral at Callao in
August. The Admiral will be here in September.
The Modeste, 18, Captain Watkins, is still in the
Columbia, having been aground. She is ordered to
England immediately."
Notice was received at all the Semaphore stations
yesterday from the Admiralty that from and after the
31st of December next the duties will cease, the
electric telegraph superseding all other modes of
making signals. The line which has been carried
into the Admiralty at one end will be ?4.y- that time
brought into the Admiral's office at this end, by the
branch of the South-Western Railway from Fare-
barn, through Portchester, Cosham, &c.
The Flying Fish was at St. Paul de Loando on the
Ist of June, and sailed the same day fur her station.
A short time previous they had taken a prize, a
schooner, a Brazilian slaver, the Jupiter. All well
on board.
In Harbour—The Victory, Excellent, Cambrian,
and Amphion ; the Geyser, Lightning, Comet,
Myrtle, and Echo steamers.
At Spitheacl—The Amphitrite, Trincomalee, Fury,
and Nautilus.
In the Basin—The Ajax, Retribution, Frolic, and
Rccket.
In Dock—The Prince Regent, Leander, Orestes,
Sappho, Rifleman, Kite, and Seaflower.
THE CLARENCE-YARD BATTALION.

This admirably organised corps had yesterday after-
noon some excellent practice at target firing in
Stokes- bay. The battalion marched out of the yard
about 8 o'clock, and presented a most military ap-
pearance, headed by their excellent hand. On their
arrival at Stokes-bay the guns took up their position
in line, and the battalion commenced firing at a
target, placed at a distance of 825 yards. The wind
was very high, and blew directly across the line of
fire ; nevertheless 18 shots out of 40 hit the mark—
two going completely throueh the hull's eye. Several
officers of the Royal Artillery, who were upon the
ground, spoke in high terms of the practice, and
seemed much pleased at the steady and soldierlike
manner in which the men handled the guns. The
progress made by this corps in their military duties
during the three months they have been under drill
is truly astonishing, and reflects the greatest
credit on Colonel Sir E. Parry and the officers
of the corps, who have spared no pains to render
them everything that can be desired ; nor is
less merit aiue to the men, who on all occasions evince
the greatest alacrity and zeal. We believe gun
No. 2 was the successful one, as upon the homeward
march of the battalion we observed that it was deco-
rated with laurels. There was likewise some very
fair practice with the carbine; but the day was most
unpropitious for ball firing. The battalion was to
have been reviewed this afternoon by Lieutenant-
General Sir Harry Smith, the Hero of Aliwal ; but,
in consequence of the badness of the weather, the in-
spection has been postponed until to-morrow. It is
most gratifying to hear the handsome manner in which
officers of high military rank speak of the Royal
Dockyard battalions, and the warm interest they ap-
pear to take in a scheme of so much importance to the
safety of our naval arsenals, as the efficient organiza-
tion of these promising and popular corps.
PLYMOUTH, SEPT. 16.—Her Majesty's steam-
frigate Birkenhead, 556-horse power, Commander
Augustus Ingram, which has been must usefully
employed in assisting to float the Great Britain in
Dundrum Bay, arrived here from Liverpool this
afternoon, and anchored in the Sound at two o'clock.
Last night, at half-past nine o'clock, when off the
Lizard Point, the wind blowing very strong, she
unfortunately ran down a brig, name unknown. The
brig had her starboard tacks on board, and was reach-
ing off ft-cm the Lizard, with the wind from the
southward and westward ; she went under the fri-
gate's bows, and before clearing her knocked away
her foremast and bowsprit, and grazed the steamer's
starboard broadside and quarter. The brig was ob-
served from the deck of the frigate prior to the col-
lision ; her speed was shortened, and efforts made to
avoid the contact. With an intention to assist the
brig, the frigate got out her boat immediately after
the accident, but the sea was so tempestuous that the
boat was instantly swamped. The frigate kept the
shattered vessel in sight for about two hours, when
she suddenly disappeared, and it is feared that from
the stormy state of the weather and the darkness
which prevailed, that the ill-fated vessel must have
gone down, and that all her crew have unhappily
perished.

The Birkenhead's engines are damaged, her star-
board paddle-box and wheel are smashed, the cook's
galley carried away, cabin light chains broken, and
starboard quarter injured. Several wards of the brig's
sail canvass have been extracted from the frigate's
paddle.box Since she came into the Sound. The Bir-
kenhead \ a s bound to Portsmouth, but in conse•
quence of the collision is now detained here to repair
damages.
Cuant.ut SEPT. 17.—The Sealark, 10 gun brig,
Commander White, from the west coast of Africa, is
ordered to he paid off at this port, without any of her
internal fittings or bulkheads being removed. She is
looked for to-morrow, as she arrived at Spithead on
the 14th inst.
The Bonetta, 3-gun brigantine, Commander Thos.
S. Brock, was paid air into ordinary on the 16th inst.
v Tee Arab, 12 guns, Commander W. Morris, fit-
mg for sea, is prof•eeding very. fast with her rigging ;
she is getting inshter hands in a very fair manner.
The
sheerObetrhoen m.packet, Lieutenant Gardner, is
alongside hulk, to receive her masts and to
be fitted for sea. She will not be completed before
the end of next month.
The Diligence naval transport, Mr.:Nlartin master,
has arrived in the river with stores, from Pembroke' I
for this yard.

THE MA H.S.—SOUTHAMPTON, SEPT. 17._The
Royal West India Mail packet Avon, Captain R S.
Norton, left the port this day at three P.M., with the
West India mails, under charge of Lieutenant Br
RN. She takes out a full general cargo, 3,200/. in
specie, and above 70 passengers. The Peninsular and
Oriental Company's steam-ship Jupiter, Captain Mee-
han, hound for Gibraltar, took out at three P.M. this day
the Peninsular and Mediterranean mails, under care of
Lieutenant Inglis, RN , with a full cargo of bale goods
and 20 passengers. This coast has beeu visited with a
violent gale wind since Wednesday, a hich has not
yet abated. The Jersey packet, which left the port at
seven O'clock on Wednesday evening, but was obliged to
anchor
in Yarnaotoi 'loads for the night, was unable,
In
from the continuance of the storm,
to- leave' her moor-
ings until three P.M. yesterdaoyr,w'hen she returned to
this port with her passengers.
DEATH OF EDWARD D. DAVENPORT, ESQ OF
