NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
SIR CHARLES NAPIER'S SQUADRON.
PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—The following ships and
vessels are under orders to sail from Spithead to-mor-
row noon :—The St. Vincent, 120, Captain Dacres, flag
'3f Rear-Admiral Sir Charles Napier, K.C.8., Coalman-
3er-in-Chief; the Prince Regent, 92, Captain Martin;
:he Powerful, 84, Captain the lion. R. S. Dun(las, C. 8.;
the Orestes, 14, Commander Hawker; the Stromboli
steam-sloop, Commander Lord Aurelius Beauclerlc; and
the Reynt-d screw-sloop, Commander Cracroft. Orders,
however, hive arrived, which annul those for sailing
ire tem.
The Superb was prevented from coming into the har-
Dour to- day by the long inspection yesterday, which
prevented the lighters from clearing her of her lower
deck guns, powder, shot, &e. The tides being deed
neaped, it has been thought requisite to have her much
lightened, but there is a great deal of nonsense in this,
which it is very difficult to understand. Ships have
gone out drawing above 25 feet, but the pilots say none
can safely pass the bar drawing more than 22 feet 6
inches. Why? There is no sea on at any time that can
affect a ship of that draught. It appears to be " the
pilot's mystery," The Superb will come in, it is be-
lieved, to-morrow.
The Driver steam-sloop, Commander Johnson, came
into harbour to-day.
Wind, west; moderate breezes and fine weather.
PlormouTri, Nov. 20.—The barque Cadet, Captain
Pratt, from London, with 150 female convicts and 50
children for Hobart Town, put in, through contrary
winds, this morning.
The Norwegian brig Alfen, from Konigsberg, with
iron for New York, arrived on the 17th, leaky.
The brig Rupel, Captain Neuts, from Rio Janeiro,
4th September, came in yesterday for orders. Since
leaving the Western Islands she has had strong contrary
winds and two easterly gales, each of three days' con-
tinuance.

WooLwicir, Nov. 21.—The members of the Dock-
yard Revision Committee resumed their labours at this
yard to-day, and have examined a number of persons in
various departments, and made personal visits to several
places, for the purpose of acquiring a knowledge of the
different matters and modes of conducting the depart-
ments required by the committee previous to their report
being made.
Commodore Sir Gordon Bremer, K.C.8., K.C.11., left
Woolwich on Saturday morning last for Compton, his
place of residence, in Devonshire, and the Confiance,
when ready for sea, will take round his furniture to
Plymouth. OH the evening previous to leaving, the
gallant Commodore caused it to be made known to the
workmen, that although he declined the honour they in-
tended to confer upon him by their expressed wish to
appear in the uniform of the brigade, ha would receive
their address, which was accordingly presented by the
inspectors and a deputation of the workmen, and re-
plied to it in the following terms :—" Gentlemen,—lt is
my wish that you communicate to the several workmen
employed under you the very high gratification I feel
in receiving so flattering an address from so large a
body of men, whom I have had the honour to have under
my command. It is also my wish that you make them
acquainted with the high opinion I have always enter-
tained of them individually and collectively, that I leave
them perfectly satisfied with their loyalty, as evinced
on a late occasion by the able manner in which they
came forward to a man, when the country was
threatened by a mischievous and dangerous body,
spreading confusion to her Majesty's Government and
the safety and well-being of society, as well as to their
zeal and attention to their several duties, whilst I shall
ever remember this particular mark of their respect
shown to me. In conclusion, I wish you all health and
happiness, and that you tmay live long to enjoy such
blessings is my most earnest wish." At the conclusion
of the address the inspectors and workmen gave Sir
Gordon three hearty cheers.
FORTIFICATIONS AND DEFENCES OF THE
HOME PORTS.
The following are extracts from reports of the commis-
sioners appointed to inspect the fortifications and de-
fences of the home ports, and to recommend improve-
ments or additions to the existing works for the pro-
tection of the said ports :
" SHEERNESS.—The floating battery should be a line-
of-battle ship, without masts, having her bow and stern
strengthened, and altered in form, to enable her to fire
the greatest possible number of guns from those points;
she should be armed with the heaviest ordnance she will
bear, and he supported by a tower on the Isle of Grain,
having a battery of six heavy guns in front of it. The
guard ship of the ordinary should also be equipped with
eight-inch guns on the lower deck, and with her proper
armament on the other decks, and she should be perma-
nently 'flied at the' moorings the Nymph frigate is
now riding by, as the eddy tide at these moorings
will always admit of ships being sprung with their broad-
sides to, the entrance of the harbour. Six strong tugs
of very light draft of water, but with considera-
ble steam power, and capable of carrying two or more
heavy guns,. should be permanently attached to Sheer-
ness; they should be ready to change the position of
the floating batteries; and would he generally useful
far the defence of the harbour. With the floating force,
the proposed batteries at Queenborough might be dis-
pensed with.
" DEFENCES OF TIIE MEDWAY.—The removal of the
ordinary to the upper part of the river, above Stangate
Creek, is, therefore, recommended, and, in the event of
war, some of the mooring lumps attached to the dock-
yards should be moored across the river at the narrowest
and most convenient points below them, each with two
line of battle-ships' anchors and cables seaward, and
lighter ones to ride by on the ebb, at such intervals as
would allow of their being connected by their bows and
sterns with chain cables, of dimensions so fitted that they
might he unshackled to admit of ships passing up and
down the river when required; these lumps should be
armed with two heavy shell guns each, and the line to
be flanked with two frigates armed with heavy guns,
fitted as floating batteries, the one a little in advance of
the other, to admit of their delivering their fire clear of
each other.
" PORTSMOTJTEL—In order to assist in the defence of
the port, and to meet the contingency of an enemy land.
ing for the purpose of a sudden and rapid incursion, a
floating defence is proposed of two line-of-battle ships
and six frigates with screws, as steam block-ships, which
would admit of their broadsides as well as their sterns
and bows being armed with heavy guns. These block-
ships would not only assist in the defence of Portsmouth
Harbour, but also in that of the Isle of Wight and the
Southampton Water; and with this view should be ca-
pable of being propelled at the rate of between seven
and eight knots per hour."
The report adds—" We consider these steam block-
ships might also, in the event of a serious attack on the
coast, at a distance from Portsmouth, be made available
for its defence."

IPSWICH CORN EXCHANGE, Nor. 21.
The business done in the Corn trade to-day was not
extensive, farmers being unwilling to sell at a reduction.
The Wheat trade was very heavy, at a decline of is to
2s per quarter. The finest malting Barley was full Is,
and other qualities 2s lower. Oats and Beans are each
Is lower. Boiling Peas are reduced 2s, and Grey Peas
Is. Malt declined 2s. Flour looking downwards in

HULL, Mv. 21.

According to Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular
business of every kind has been very inactive during the
past week: the vi eatber more favourable, and good pro-
gress now making with seed operations; the show of
wheat at this day's market was consequently smaller
than of late, but fully up to the wants of millers, who
being pretty well in stock are shy buyers. A good show
of .foreign, bat the ire very dull, and the bulk of the
above arrival goes to granzry. We quote the market is.
lower than last week for all descriptions of wheat. The
greater part of our barley import is of malting quality,
and such is very bad to sell, even at a reduction of is to
23 per qr., the new English working better than was
feared; grinding sorts are comparatively scarce, and go
off freely at full prices; momentarily the market is al-
most clear,. but- further arrivals are expected. The
transactions in other kinds of spring corn are limited,
but we have mare inquiry for beans and the better sorts
of peas. With only an insignificant arrival of linseed

the actual businesi in this article has been very trifling,
and we are unable to alter our quotations. Firmness is
the characteristic feature of the trade. .Igore doing in

LEEDS, Nov. 21.—The winds being a little more fa-
vourable the last few days, we have a better show of
grain to day than last week. There has been but little
business clone, though a decline of Is. to 2s. per qr. is
submitted to on the best qualities of wheat and barley,
and in some instances a still greater reduction on other
qualities. We can note no alteration in the value of oats
or beans.

LIYERPOOL, Nov. 21.—Favourable winds for several
days have brought up a fleet of vessels, and we have
large supplies of the leading articles of the corn trade
from our own coasts and from abroad. Duties have
been paid at this port between the 11th and 17th of
November inclusive, on foreign wheat, 84 qrs.; foreign
flour, 536 brls,; colonial flour, 212 brls,; Indian corn,
8,440 qrs.; foreign peas, 1,925 qrs.; Indian meal, 35
brls.; foreign barley, 872 qre. Indian corn has been in
good demand, and prices are supported, but for every
other article of the trade the demand has been very
languid, with a downward tendency of value. There was
a fair attendance of town and neighbouring millers at
this morning's market. Wheat was saleable only in
small quantities, at a reduction of 2d to 3d per bushel
on the rates of last Tuesday. Flour was dull, and Is
per &ack and barrel lower. Oats declined id to ld per
bushel, but the show of good mealing quality was very
small. Oatmeal was 3d to 6d per load cheaper.
Egyptian beans supported late rates. Peas were is to
2s per qr. lower. Malting barley met a fair sale at a
reduction of is per qr. The demand for Indian corn
was less active to-day, but the value was considered un-
altered.

PETERBOROUGH, Nov. 18.—The weather during the
last week has been very fine, which has enabled the
farmers to make great progress with their wheat seed-
ing. The supply of all grain is good to this day's
market. Wheat is 2s lower. Barley and beans is
cheaper. Oats 6d to is lower. Wheat, new 42s to 445,

BISHoP'S STORTFORD, Nov. I7.—The supply of wheat
at market was moderate, for which there was but little
demand, at prices is per quarter lower. The supply of
barley was large, and although purchases were made to
a considerable extent, the prices declined is to 2s per
quarter, but with little trade. Wheat, old 44s to 503,
new 44s to 48s; barley 29s to 365, oats 17s to 265, beans
304 to 395, peas 34s to 40s. Inspector's corn return for

Mancrs, Nov. 17.—We had a limited trade at this
market, holders of wheat not being disposed to submit
to any reduction of prices, and buyers could only be
found at less rates. There is not a good demand for
oats and beans, and the trade ruled generally flat. Per
quarter imperial to the grower—Wheat 48s to 525, fine

EXTICNSIVE ROBBERY.—Another robbery of the
description so frequent at present took place on Wed-
nesday night, in a house in St. Andrew-street, by which
a cattle dealer was deprived of the suns. af 210/. in 42
bank-notes of 51. each. During the time he was in the
house hi§ pocket-book was abstracted from his breast-
pocket and lodged in. he pocket of his coat, after its
contents had been 'stolen, which he did not miss till he
had left the house. Information was immediately given
do the police, who reached the house a short time after-
wards; before their arrival, however, the door had been
padlocked, and the house closed in such a manner as to
'convey the impression that it had been shut for a long
period. Several persons were apprehended, but no trace
has been got of the money.—CaledonianMereury.
HOP INTELLIGENCE.—WORCESTER, NOV. ]. I.
The supply of new hops on Saturday did not amount to
more than from 400 to 500 pockets, the greater part of
which was soon disposed of; and although no advance
could be obtained, everything with a fair share of colour
realised full prices, which are likely to be maintainedi
and from the scarcity of brewers' samples in offer, we
shall probably see hops of that class higher very shortly.
The following are now the correct quotations:—Best
new Worcester's, 565. to 655. per cwt. ; middling and
low, 425. to 50s. per cwt.; 1846'5, 355. to 445. per cwt.
The number of pockets of hops weighed in the week:—
New, 185; old, 55. Saturday:—New, 262; old, 6.
