from the Mediterranean, will be speedily recommissioned,
after being paid off all standing. A subaltern and 80
marines of this division are already draughted for her
new commission.
The squadron to be placed under the orders of Rear-
Admiral Sir Charles Napier is victualling and fitting
with considerable alacrity. The 15th is to be the day of
sailing. The Reynard screw. schooner, Commander
Cracroft, is to Lave one of Mr. Grant's improved com-
pact cooking utensils, which will economise space and
prove of great use in the distillation of salt water.
The Orestes, 14, Commander Hawker, is getting on
rapidly with her outfit. She has an excellent picked
crew and skilful officers—advantages which will insure
her speedy and sound equipment. She is intended to
relieve the Grecian, 16, on the south-east coast of
America station.

MELANCHOLY INCIDENT AT SEA.-1 A serious dis-
aster, involving the loss of not less than five lines, oc •
curred on its homeward voyage to the ship Consbrsok,
M'Guire master, which arrived at this port on Munchy
week from Charleston.
Rght or nineinonths ago Mr.
Joseph Hazlewoed, formerly a joiner in
,w ent out on behalf
Northumber-
land-street, iu th:s town, but latterly in the haberdashery
business in Mill-street, To?coth-p
of a club of twenty or thirty persons to explore and
purchase lands in some of the western states of Ame-
rica, with a view to emigrate thither. He fixed on a
locality in Tennesse, and having made an extensive and
eligible purchase, left his brother-in-law (who had gone
out with him) on the land, and set out on his return
to this country to make the necessary arrangements
for a permanent removal. He embarked on board
the Consbrook. When the vessel was about twenty
miles off the Cove of Cork a boy belonging to the
crew fell overboard. The sea was very rough at the
time, but the unfortunate boy swimming strongly
and imploring assistance, Hazlewood and three of the
crew volunteered to lower the boat and attempt a rescue.
The ship lay to as well as the weather would permit; but
the boat rapidly drifted, and in about twenty minutes
i
(having suffered a capsize, it s feared) suddenly disap-
peared from view. The worst fears, however, were not
at first entertained. There were hopes on board that
those in the boat, finding it useless to endeavour to re-
turn to the ship, had made for Cork, and safely lauded
there. The Consbrook lay windbound in the channel
for nearly a fortnight subsequently, and on her arrival
here a messenger waited upon Mrs. Hazlewood to know
whether her husband had reached g
home. Thinking a
jest intended, a humorous negative was the response,
and
the above melancholy details were then communicated to
the sorrowing listener. It was daylight at the time of
the accident, and it appears marvellous that the boat
should have gone dawn unobserved; but there is still a
possibility, to which hope clings, that those in the boat
may have been picked up, and carried on by some oat-
ward-bound vessel.—Liverpool Courier.
A GOOD ANSWER.—" What shall I do," said a
liquor-seller to a temperance lecture!, "if I quit selling
rum ? " "Go into the poor-house, said the lecturer,
" and be supported the,re, and let the poor ;you have
made paupers come out. '
