SIR ROBERT FEEL AND THE
SOUTHWARK ADDRESS.

The following reply to the Southwark address has been re-
ceived by the High Bailiff from air R. Peel
:--
(Copy.)

Whitehall, August 3.
" Sir,—l request that you will convey to the inhabitants of
the borough of Southwark, who were parties to the address
which vou placed in my hands, my grateful acknowledg-
ments for the sentiments to which they have given expression
in that address.

" If I have borne with equanimity the vituperation by
which I have been assailed, it was because I was supported
by the consciousness that in the course which I was pursuing
I had no private interest to serve, no object of political am•
bition to promote ; but that I was discharging an imperative
duty, which, by undertaking the responsibility of a Minister,
I had contracted towards the Queen and the country.
"It is gratifying to me, on personal grounds to receive
the assurance from i•tich a body as that from which this ad-
dress proceeds; that ample justice is done to the motives by
which I have been influenced, and that the measures which
have received the sanction of Parliament meet with their
cordial approbation.
"It is gratifying to me, also, on public grounds, because
it is right that those who are charged with the high trust of
averting impending danger from the state, and consulting
its permanent interests, should be encouraged to perform their
duty by the conviction that the resolute and faithful dis-
chaige of it will be duly appreciated by a large and intelli-
gent portion of their fellow-countrymen.
" I have the honour to be, Sir, your faithful servant,
ROI3ERT PEEL."
"The High Bailiff of Southwark.

Johnson, returned to-dayd from Plymouth.
twod voyages to
Plymouth and back in two hours under 'timer
a stoppage in this harbour of seven hours. aRe including
traveri;ed is about 650 miles, and this has been accomitstcde
by one of the oldest steamers in the service, and one generally
held to be a very slow coach.
The Athol troop-ship, Master-Commanding E. Pearce,waa
towed into the harbour last evening, and is to be grounded,
we believe, alongside the dockyard, to have her copper ex•
amined and repaired, there being no dock vacant.
The slight repairs required by the royal yacht in conse-
quence of her late accident have been completed, and she
was hauled off to the buoy opposite Clarence yard this
morning, ready for her Majesty's use, should she think lit to
employ her.
The ships dressed in flags this afternoon at a quarter past
one, and the pier at Clarence-yard has been decorated in like
manner, as from the lateness of the hour at which her
Majesty has appointed to arrive, it will be low water, and
she will be obliged to use the barge.
In Harbour—Excellent, Victory, Victoria and Albert,
Nautilus, Athol, and Seaflower cutter ; Gladiator, Dasher,
Comet, Fairy, aid Echo steamers.
At Spithead—Contest and Aurora, Sardinian corvette. 1

In Dock—Prince Regent, Leander, Cambrian, Naiad,
Rattlesnake, and Rifleman.
In the Basin—Neptune, Edinburgh, Penelope, Trincoma-
lee, and Amphitrite.
