NAVAL HONOURS. —lt is no slight matter of surprise
among naval men that the Rear-Admiral (Sir D. Milne}
and his Flag Captain, now Rear-Admiral Brace, should
have received no Engli,h hollows for their services in the
bombardment of Algiers. Two other officers in that
action who commanded frigates, Captains Citetham and
Palmer, were also unrewarded because they had happened
to have gained their Comtnatulerships of the Bath for
former services, and one of them a medal in addition for

a frigate action.
