NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY.—The report circulated with
regard to the deck of the Collingwood sinking has b9eri..
found to be correct, not, however, from the dropping 0f
the beams, nor any other defect, either in the design
or execution of the ship, but from the working of the
holy stones, by which one deck at least has been en-
tirely ruined, the nails standing up in such a way as to.
render it unsafe for waking on. The ship is perfectly
sound.

The Cyclops steam-frigate is ordered to be kept is
readiness for immediate service.
The Growler steam-sloop was taken out to-day to
try her engines, under the inspection of Commander
P. Grenfell and Mr. A. Murray, chief engineer.
The Kingfisher, 12, is ready for commission. It is
expected she will hoist the pendant on Monday, 011 u
fit for the coast of Africa, as she is intended to tau°
the next mail to that station.

dine, Fire Queen, Fairy, Lightning, Adelaide, and Echo

PLYMOUTH, SEPT. 7.—Through the suspension of hos"
tilities in the North, the following vessels, which We
for some time taken shelter in this port, have this do/
sailed for their several destinations, viz., the Prussisin
brig Kron Prinz von Preussin, Captain Moller, from
China, for Hamburgh; the Oldenburgh schooner gar'
gretha, Captain Schaffer, from Cephalonia, for Bremen;
the Danish schooner Commune, Captain Railslen, frog'
Rio Grande, for Hamburgh; the Prussian barque Diu-
gence, Captain Elbrecht, from Plymouth, for Dantzin;
and the Hanoverian galliot Anna Petronella, Captain
Arendt, from Alicante, for Hamburgh. The following
are ready, and will probably sail to-morrow' viz., the
Hamburgh galliot Conatus, Captain Klemer, from Lie"
bon, for St. Petersburgh; the Danish brig Courier, Car
tain Thompson, from Monte Video, for Hamburgh; the
Prussian brig Fanny, Captain Laurens, from Bordealay
for Stettin; and the Prussian brig Frederic Wilhelmines
Captain Mannowsky, from Torrevecchia, for Konigs-
burgh. The Prussian brig Belohnung, Captain Lintner.
from Liverpool, for Stettin, has been detained under
average, but will sail in a few days. The English brig
Empress, Captain Hodgson, sailed yesterday for Ham-
burgh with part of the cargo the Hamburgh WO,
Flora, Captain Tiedeman, from Singapore, transhippen
previous to the conclusion of the armistice ; and the
schooner Gideon, of Plymouth, Captain Barrett, sails to-
morrow with the remainder of the brig's cargo. The
Flora is now about to load an outward cargo for Singa-
pore, brought here for her, from Hamburgh, by the
English brig Hamburgh, Captain Wood. The above
includes all the Northern merchantmen in the port when
the late intelligence arrived ; a considerable number
of vessels have, however, during the disturbances,
touched here, and then proceeded to their destina-
tion. It is stated that only one of that number has
been taken.
FALMOUTH, SEPT. 7.—ln consequence of the arrival
at this port of the intelligence that the armistice be-
tween Denmark and the German Confederates had been
ratified, the residue of the fleet of foreign vessels so
long detained here, and amounting to 40 sail have de-
parted for their original destinations last night and this
morning. About 60 other ships by arrangement with
their consignees either got clear of their cargoes, pro-
ceeded to other ports, or have run the gauntlet, at
ferent periods during the time of active hostility.
WooLwisv, SEPT. B.—The Adder steam-vessel, re'
cently paid off at this port, on the discontinuance of the
packet service at the Pembroke station, is ordered to
take on board a supply of coals to-day, and will proceed
on Monday next to Gravesend with the Lords CorannY-
sioners of the Admiralty, who will land there, and pre"
teed by railway on an official visit to Chatham.
The Plumper steam .vessel, when stte started yesterday
under the charge of Mr. Bellamy, Master-Attendant at
Woolwich Dockyard, had not reached opposite the roll
arsenal when one of the fans of her screw-propeller
broke off, which was lost in the river. The other fat
also broke off in a few minutes after, and she had to be
towed back to the harbour lit Woolwich by the Dever
steam-vessel.

The Dover steam-vessel, Second Master Commander
Bolton, worked very creditably yesterday during her
trial down the river, and the Lords of the Admiralty re-
turned to Woolwich in her. She has been fitted with
three masts, but their Lordships consider that two Will
be sufficient, and have ordered the mainmast to be taken
out and placed in store. Their Lordships' official vieini
are of great benefit, as any deficiencies or imperfections
at once attract their attention and a few words of Per-
sonal instruction to the heads of the departments ere
more to the purpose than volumes of correspondence.
The Mynx steam-vessel, under the charge of Mr. (dos'
man, Master of the Fisgard frigate, made an average
speed of about nine knots per hour yesterday.
The Niger steam-sloop has a number of hands OW
ployed upon her to get her ready for sea. A groat ad-
vantage possessed by her engines is owing to their being
wholly with their boilers under the water line, and We
from liability to injury by shot. The ponderous basins
of the former perpendicular stroke are entirely dispense'
with, and a short horizontal stroke of about 1 foot 10,
inches substituted, which occupies a comparatively small
space in the vessel, and by its direct action gives
greater number of revolutions of the screw-propeller than
can be obtained by any other means yet adopted, Witbeg4
the continuous drumming noise which took place when
cog-wheels or leather-bands were used; and they are
now far less liable to get out of order.
