SHEERNEss.—H.M. S. CTCLora.—We have been
informed that on this vessel's getting into soundings on her
voyage from the Cape, that a dispute arose among the junior
officers as to her exact position. A serious fracas was the con-
siquence—a regular stand-up fight took place on the quarter-
deck, and on her coming into port here one of the officers
was sent to hospital, on account of the injuries he received.
Strange as it may appear, yet it is nevertheless true, that no
notice was taken of, nor any inquiries instituted, by the com-
manding officer, into such a breach of discipline on the part
of the belligerents. In a word, they were allowed to fight it
out without any interference whatever. The Cyclops went
on shore off the Isle of Wight on Saturday the lath, and was
not got off until 2 A. 51. the next day, and subsequently again
in Princes Channel. With these facts before us—the truth of
which we defy any one to contradict—we ask, were the
officers who had the navigation of the sh under their
charge on these occasions, competent to discharge their duty?
and if not, as we believe to be the case, from circumstances
e
which have come to our knowledge, what Wathaenrsewal ca
