NAVAL INTELLIGENCE:

Mill Boy pier this morning. She was constructed
at BukenheA by Mr. Jimes Laird, and is a very
fast vessel, 300 tons burden, iron built, double fun-
nelled, and is adapted for pa.sengers, towing, or
war purposes. Having a rudder at, each end, she
can be steered without turning, and is well suited
for the navigation of the narrow channels which run
into the Black Sea. After being supplied with coal
and other requirements, through Mr. Luscombe, the
Russian Consul, she sails earl' in the week for Odessa.
Woor,wictu. AUG. 23.—The French Government
corvette Sicorne, under the command of Captain
Menne, trcompanied by the 'Linger steam-vessel,
arrived at Woolwich to-day, and proceeded imme-
diately as far up the river as Deptford, having pre•
viously landed their powder at Putfleet. The object
of the visit of these vessels to this country will be best
explained by the following communication sent from
the Admiralty to Commodore Henry Eden, superin-
tendent of her Majesty's Dockyard, Woolwich :

being now closed, whether there was any intention to
have an audit of the account.

The ineinh.rs of the Beard of Admiralty, now on
the annual visit of insp.ction to Pembroke Dock-
yard, are expec'ed to return to the Admiralty via
Bristol, this evening.
The Gazette of Friday night announced the promo-
tioni and changes consequent on the decease of Ad-
miral Sir Henry Heath..ote. 0113rne gives the fol-
lowing sketch of Sir Henry's career:—
_ .

The CHAIRMAN said that they bad been audited as
part of the Nurfoilc Railway accounts; but he should
be extremely glad that the proprietors should nomi-
nate some parties to go through the whole of the ac-
counts. Such a course would be very satiafactory to
the hoard.--(dear.)
Tne accounts were agreed to ; and on the motion
of Mr. Sulstzer, seconded by Mr. J. 0. Taylor, it
was resolved that a public accountant of high charac-
ter and station should, previously to the next half-
yearly meeting, audit and report upon the whole of
the accounts.

" Sir Henry Heathcote, born Jan. 20,1777, was fourth
sori of the bare Sir William Heathcote, Bart, of Hureley
Park,. near Winchester, M.P, for county Heuts, by Fran-
ces, daughter and co heir of John Thorpe, Esq., of
Embley, ounty Hants, and brother of the late Cap-
tain Gilbert Hentheote, k. N, (1806). This officer en-
tered the navy July 3. 1790, on b turd the Captain, 74.
He served on shore, while in the Egmont, at the ledue-
:awn of Corsica in 1794; and on March 14 and July 13,
1795, he was present, as mid-hipman of the Princess
Itayel, and -master's mate of the clop:, in Admiral
lloteam'e partial actions. On Sept. 19.1796, Mr. Heath-
cote was coefirtn-cl a lieutenant iu the Britannia, 100, in
Which ship, 'end the Meleager frigate, he further served
in ;hi Mediterranean, until nominated, July 5, 1797, act-
ing-commander of the Alliance, store-ship—an appoint-
mOnt sanctioned by the Admiralty on the 11th of the fol-
lowiu August. From the letter vessel, then at Lisbon,
he was removed Nov. 7, 1797, to the captaincy, by
an order from his admiral, of the Romulus, 36,
which frigete'he peel off shortly atter his official ad•
vat c' F b. 5. 1798, to post rank. Captain H-ath-
c,tWs ,übsequelit appointments were—April 4, 1803, to
the Galatea. 32, emplo3e,l at first on the coast of Ire-
then in convoying a fleet of 150 sail to the
-st fedi- s; April 19, 1805. by exchange, to the
Desires.-36, for a passage so England, whither he es-
,orted a convoy of 101 sail; March 21, 1807, to the &a
F,ne-,,les, in the Isle of W;ght; and Feb. 13, 1808, and
April 28, 1812, 'to the Lion, 64, and Scipion, 74. In the
former ot thoee ships he imuardiately sailed, in charge
oi 14 -I,.diameii, for Bettiml and China. When at Bow-
nay, in June, 1811, Captain Heathcote, owing to the
absence of Counnolore Broughtoo, the commander-in-
on the expedition to Java, was induced to open a
il
set ut dispatches trona England, from whose contents he
[lt that a large t rue from France might reasonably
txp etd t,s be on us w -y to Java, for the purpose of

return to Eng( ;le-, after the subjogation of Java, ai.d
tia appointment to the Scipion, he j ined the fl.e tin the
diterrato-ao, N here, it the autumn of 1813, he assumed
command ot the in-shore sqnedron off Teuton, and con-
spieuously participated on to- sth November in that year
to Sir Edward P.,,11-si'ti skirmish with the enemy's fleet.
On the conclusion of the war he was sent, with four sail
f the line, to Marstilles, for the purpose of thence con-
veying the Britn,h prisoners of war to port Mahon. He
-vas paid cif in October, 1814, and has not neen since
enpla) ed. He ta came a rear-admiral 27th May, 1826;
A vic--admiral 10 h Jaeuary, 1.837; and a full admiral
9th November, 1843. Iu 1829 he took out a patent for
to i-nprovement of the staysails between the masts of
ehipe and other square-rigged vessels, and the bettar se-
curity of the masts; and in 1824 he published a treatise
on the subject. which was by permission dedicated to the
Meg. Tne plan, we un,fers.and, was tried on hoard
awe frigates, and reported to the Admiralty as worthy
of its ucceptance.... Sir Henry Heathcote married, Nov.
10. 1799 Sarah Ehz ibetli, daughter of Thomas Guscott,
Esq., many years naval storekeeper afloat at Sheerne•s,
by whom he has issue, living, three sons (the eldest in
the army), and seven daughters. His second sun,
Henry, a major in the 88th Font, died in 1829."
That distinguished octogenarian flag officer, Vice-
Admiral M'Kinley, as stated on Saturday, having re-
tired from the active list, with the new good-service
pension of 1501. per annum, Commodore Lord John
Hay, C. 8., has obtained his flag ; but we regret to
hear that this noble and gallant officer is rapidly
sinking, and that there is not the slightest hope of his
recovery.
Vice-Admiral J ,hn Dick rind Rear-Admiral Sir
Edward Chetham Strode, K C.B , K.C.H., are now
he seniors of their respective grades for promotion.
Captain Constantine Richard Moorsom (1818) is
now the senior on the captain's list; but not having
a-rsed the regulated period as a captain he will be
placed on the reserved half-pay list of flag officers on
the next vacancy, as will also his next seniors, the Earl
of Egmont and Sir G. A. We,,tphal, neither of whom
have served their time 1-fliat as captains. Captain
Provo W. P. Wallis (1816) is therefore the next eli-
gible officer for promotion to the active list.
By the elevation of Lord John H. ty, an appoiW-
tnent of naval aide-de-camp to the Queen has fallen in

Capt. ANDREWS, the harbour-master, was then
called upon to report on the state and prospect of the
harbour. He said that notwithstanding that the last
half-year had been acknowledged to be unusually
poor, in consequence of the extreme mildnesss of the
winter, which occasioned a diminution in the demand
for coals, which formed their staple import,
there had yet been an increase on all im
ports of 6 997 tons over the corresponding period
of last year. ' There had been a falling off in the
export of grain to a considerable extent, from
causes which he was unable to explain ; but
there had been a total increase on receipts amounting
to 1131. 15s. 7d. over the corresponding half-year.
The harbour had maintained its position very satis •
factorily. They had secured an increased deep water
space in the harbour, and though; the dredging opera-
tions had not been so extensive as those of last year,
yet they had been able to keep.under the accumula-
tion of silt. The harbour had already stood the test
of two winters, it admitted large vessels at low water,
and he had every confidence that the depth of water
would be maintained, the works upheld, and the har-
bour continue to be esteemed.—(Cheers.) Many
things which at their last meeting were in their in-
fancy had now arrived at maturity. There had been
a considerable increase in the imports of cattle. He
had lately been over the whole peninsula of Jutland,
and had coasted along from Hjerting to Tonning,
where he had had an opportunity of seeing an amount
of produce upon the ground, both of cattle and grain,
which would alone be sufficient to maintain the line of
steamers between Lowestoft and Denmark. He had
had a meeting with the principal shippers of the port
of Tonning, and about 216 of them had undertaken to
send the whole of their cattle—something like 12,000
head annually—by the company's line. Tnis item at
the usual rate would amount to 24,000/. annually.
'They had already imported this year from Tonning,
Men, and Hjerting, 2.684 oxen, 1,326 sheep, 587
pigs, and 45 horses, besides passengers. They had of
course had other interests to compete with, and the
General Steam Navigation Company had offered to
convey cattle direct for 15s. per head ; but the ar-
rangements of this company were so good, and the
accommodation so perfect, that dealers preferred send-
ing by the vessels of this company at the rate of 303.
each.—(Hear, hear.) The fishing trade continued to
progress very satisfactorily. They had now nine
boats on the station; and though the fish had been
unusually scarce, and prices low in London, they had
caught 3,303 baskets of soles, turbots, and plaice,
and had brought in 2,426 baskets by the steamer,
which now regularly ran out to the fleet of fishing
vessels. The railway traffic had increased during
the half-year by 1,7971. 124. 6d., or 30 per cent.
upon the receipts of the corresponding period of last
year, and the accounts for July and August would
show that the business was still steadily increasing.
The cattle traffic alone had added within three
months 1,0001. to the railway receipts, and he con-
fidently anticipated that it must increase them at least
10,000/. a year.—(Cheers.)
The statements of the chairman and of Captain
Andrews appeared to give the utmost satisfaction to
the meeting, which concluded with a vote of tbanks
to Mr. Peto and to the board of directors.

tention of sending to the port of London in the corvette

DESTRUCTIVE Figs AT GLASGOW.:—On Wedoes-
city morning one of the most serious fires that we have bad
for some time to notice, occurred in the store of Messrs. C
Tonnent and Co., St. R .11ox, situated in Wellington-street,
Glasgow; the result being an entire destruction-of the pre-
mires, with the greater part of the valuable etpck coutai-ed
in them. The loss is Veiy Rieat, the amount of salvage, we
understand, not being to such an extent as will much reduce
the sum total. We have moon to believe that the property

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.
TINIES.—The issue between the Romish agitators
and the British people is law or no law. There can
be no doubt about the question. The statute of last
session plainly declares that no territorial designation
-hall he taken by Popish prelates from any places in
the United Kingdom. To organize an association for
the repeal of this Act was a perfectly legitimate pro-
ceeding. It is the method by which in these days laws
are procured, rescinded, or amended, and it was as
competent to Irishmen as to Englishmen, to Papists
as to Protestants, to adopt this expedient for acting on
the Legislature of the empire. But the "Catholic
Defence Association " transgressed at the very outset
the rights of citizens and subjects by deliberately and
of set purpose violating the law as it stood. They pub-
licly proclaimed and assumed the titles forbidden, and
bombastically expatiated on their own inherent pri-
vilege to do exactly as they thought proper, all eta
tees to the contrary notwithstanding. To illustrate
these proceedings by English examples, we must
imagine the Anti-Corn-law League forcibly effecting
the free importation of wheat while agitating for the
repeal of the Acts of 1816 ; or the Society for the
Amendment of the Law refusing all obe-
dience to the decrees of the Court of Chan-
cery. It is nothing more nor less than a
-übstitution of private resolutions for the law of the
land. No words are wanted to prove to English
capacities that such assumptions, if uncontrolled,
must end either in political confusion or in the abso-
lute domination of a faction over the country et large.
'roe question actually at stake signill's little in coin-
uerison with the princiole involved. If the " Catholic
Defenders" can extort for themselves a recognition of
titles which the bulk of the nation deuounces, they
can maintain and exert the same agency for any
other purpose. They can push their private demands
to any conceivable extravagance, or they can abandon
their own affairs and claim dictation in the affairs of
others. Nay, they have already done so, fur the de-
struction of the Protestant Church has been openly
spoken of as an object fairly inclined among those of
Catholic defence." Nor is there any reason why
they should stop even here. They may define the
" fall and free exercise of their religion" as compre-
hending the suppression of other forms of worship, and
may insist on the proscription of dissent. There is
noshing unnatural in such en anticipation. It is the
ordinary development of Popish principles, and Dr.
Callen's friends and schoolfellows are so acting at this
very moment in the kingdom of Naples. The
prac-
+ices, the precepts, and the catechisms which we have
lately seen exposed pertain essentially to the " full
and free exercise" of the Roman Catholic religion.
The only reason why the maladministration of
Ireland tells short of the maladministration of Italy
is, that at present the Pope's emissaries are not left
entirely to their own discretion. If once they can
gain the mastery by agitation, importunity, or terror,
we shall soon see the mere question of " titles" alto-
gether forgotten in the expansive flights of prelatical
ambition. The fundamental pretext of the " Asso-
ciation" is, that they have been betrayed and perse-
cuted ; that the " compact" of 1829 has been violated
to their prejudice; and that consequently the combi-
nations by which that compact was secured are again
rendered necessary for the purposes of legitimate de-
fence. Dr. Wiseman, in a political pastoral, enlarged
upon these circumstances with true Refinish fervour,
and feelingly alluded to the " betrayal of trusts unre-
servedly regarded through a whole generation of the
Catholic body." It is not easy to translate into the
current language of the land a phraseology which, as
Dr. Ullathorne informs us, is "so easily made unintel-
ligible" to all but the objects of the address. We con-
ceive, however, Dr. Wiseman to mean that ever since
the Emancipation Act Roman Catholics had observed
their own pledges in all sincerity and without re-
serve, so as to anticipate with confidence a like
fidelity from others. If this is the purport of the
Cardinal's observation, and we can imagine no other,
his version of the facts is truly Hiberuian, and was
illustrated, indeed, with remarkable felicity at the
very opening of the transactions on Tuesday. One
of the plain stipulations of the "compact" of 1829, as
revised and agreed to by the Romish ecclesiastics
themselves, was that no Popish prelate should take or
use a title borne by any prelate of the Established
Church. Now, though the first resolution of the
meeting was to the effect that this compact had been
violated, the meeting itself was actually constituted,
inaugurated, and presided over by a Popish prelate
styling himself and styled by the company " the Most
Rev. the Archbishop of Armagh," and this person
appended his signature in such form to the resolutions
of the assembly. The simple truth is, that this " be-
trayal of trusts" has been flagrantly the other
way. Those " generous an 1 zealous advocates of re-
ligious liberty," whose defection Dr. Wiseman so
pointely laments, were compelled to confess from
their places in Parliament that they had been mis-
taken and deceived; that they had relied upon
pledges which were hollow, and promises which had
nu foundation; and that the darling policy of their
lives stood c mvicted of falsity by the results of expe-
rience. Lord John Russell acknowledged with re•
gret that he found reason to withdraw the confidence
he had placed in the sincerity and moderation of
Romish ecclesiastics ; and Lord Lyndhurst recapitu-
lated the instances in which the same parties had
systematically violated their own voluntary stipule-
, tioias. They hadlOresvvorn the ' adoption 'of certain
titles, and yet they first availed themselves of a
friendly Administration to infringe the law, and then
audaciously attempted to convert the accidents of
usage into the Polities of recoguitiou. PeY

accepted limitations to the establishment of religious
conana uni tiesi, and yet they transgressed those liwita.
tions without heed or scruple. They had consented
to regulations concerning the introduction of Jesuits,
and yet they set such consent absolutely at nought.
They recklessly falsified their compact both in letter
and spirit, taking what it gave them, and employing
the concession to procure the very license which they
had undertaken to forego. Checked at length in this
course of insidious aggression, they now pretaid to
stand on the " defensive," and clamour for the terms
of an agreement which they have been perpetually
evading. It was said in Perliament, and has been
cordially repeated in Dublin, that the restrietive
stature can never be put in force. The Pope's nomi-
nees appear to be of this opinion, for it is to be ob-
served that they have violated the law without tempta-
tion and of their own free choice. They did not wait
for any of those mysterious occasions on which we
are told that the "offices of the Catholic religion"
would be nullified unless the officiating minister de-
scribed himself by the style of a temporal peer. They
at once created for themselves the opportunity of col-
lision, broke the law, and boasted of the deed. Is it
really true that "a. successful prosecution of these
illustrious personages is beyond the reach of any
Government under Heaven?" We think not. As
practical Englishmen, it appears to us supremely
feasible to recover a penalty from these offenders,
or in default thereof to send them to gaol. Smith
O'Brien took the same lofty tone of nonaceount-
ability, but he was first put in a cellar and then sent to
Botany Bay. Doubtless religious " perseOutions” are
hard things to carry out. Queen Mary could do little
in England, and King Charles little in Scotland ;
but we humbly conceive that Queen Victoria can re-
semble neither of these precedents. We are not en-
deavouring to enfore a test, or abolish a covenant.
We put no force on any man's conscience, and inter-
fere with no forms of worship. We simply enact
that territorial titles conferred by a foreign Court shall
not be assumed in this kingdom, and it can hardly,
we should think, enter into the list even of Irish
grievances that our honest old correspondent should
still sign himself " Hendren" instead of " Clifton."
At any rate, we shall not see the law of the realm
superseded by the resolutions of the Rotunda without
trying a stroke in its favour. It is not the habit of
Englishmen to bluster; but we shall do our duty
without weakness in enforcing the decrees of the
Legislature, and Dr. Cullen may prepare himself fur
the consequences of his challenge.

THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO THE NORTH
On Saturday the arrangements for the reception
and transit of the Q seen to the north, via the Great
Northern Railway, were in a tar advanced state of
completion under the direction of Mr. Lewis Cubitt,
the engineer, and Mr. Seymour Clarke, the general
manager of the Great Northern line.
It is now definitely arranged that her Majesty will
arrive at the Great Northern R iilway from Osborne
at or as nearly as possible one o'clock on the afternoon
of Wednesday. She will be received at the station in
Maiden-lane, which,will be decorated with emblemati-
cal devices, in evergreens, dahlias, and other flowers
suitable to the occasion. Mr. Denison, M.P., the
chairman of the company, together with the directors,
Mr. Lewis Cubitt, the engineer, Mr. Mowatt, the
secretary, and Mr. Seymour Clarke, the general ma-
nager, will conduct her Majesty and the royal
suite to a magnificently fitted, although temporary
suite of apartments erected over the station,
under the direction of Mr. Cubitt. It is arranged
that the royal train shall be in readiness at two o'clock
precisely, in order to give her Majesty and her Royal
Consort time to partake of the splendid rhymer which
is to be provided fur her by the company on her
arrival.
The royal traia will consist of twelve carriages,
namely, three ordinary, although entirely new first-class
carriages ; the three royal saloons, one for her Majesty
and Royal Consort, another for his Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales, and the third for the royal suite;
two break vans and four carriage trucks, fur the con-
veyance of the luggage of the royal party and suite.
The queen's carriage will be surmounted by a splen-
did silk royal standard, • four feet six by two feet,
it having been ascertained that all the bridges and
tunnels on the line will enable them to carry a flag of
such dimensions and leave four or live inches to spare.
The train will be preceded by a pilot engine for
greater security, and will be di awn by an entirely
new and powerful engine, driven by Mr. Sturrock,
the locomotive superintendent.
The royal carriages at present remain at-the esta-
blishment of Mr. Williams, the railway coach-builder,
in the Gray's-inn road; but the directors have re-
solved to take them down to-day, on a trial trip, as
far as Peterborough.
The royal saloon carriages are quite in keeping
externally with those of the ordinary first-class car-
riages of the line, being all constructed of teak wood,
and not of Spanish mahogany, as erroneously stated
in a daily contemporary. The length of the royal
saloon carriage is 18 feet 6 inches by 7 feet 6 inches
in width. Ir. is lined with white brocaded silk of
Indian manufacture, with raised scarlet flowers; and
as an evidence of texture and value of the material,
we are assured that, if it were made in England, the
cost would be at the rate of three guineas per yard.
The windows are of the most beautiful plate glass,
and the whole of the furniture, as well as the retiring
room attached to the saloon, is of walnut-tree wood,
the chairs and ottomans being covered with the same
material as the lining of the carriage. The c arrisge
is lighted from a lantern with a pewertul refl-ctor
over the retiring room, and on the opposite side of
the saloon is a magnificent mirror, reflecting the light
back again, giving the apartment, for that the car-
riage really is, a most brilliant and elegant appear-
ance. The only exterior distinction is a broad gold
moulding round the carriage, with a splendidly gilt
crown and coat of arms over each doorway, and the
panels exquisitely painted with the Orders of the Batb,
the Garter, and the other orders of knighthood.
The Prince of Wales's saloon and retiring-room is
of equal dimensions, and equally elegant, with the !Ir.
ception that the lining is pure white brocaded silk,
instead of having any coloured flowers, and the sa-
loon for the royal suite is very similar. It may be
observed, however, that the curtain,' are of beautiful
green silk, affixed to gilt rods, and the saloons are
fitted with wine-coolers, chiffiniers, couches, Szi., and
all the appurtenances of au elegantly furnished apart-
ment.
Nothing definite has yet transpired as to the route
her Alsjestv will tsk., in consequence of the shutting
up of the New-road in so sudden and extraordinary a
manner by the authorities of St. Pancras ; but with
respect to B aker-street, which is under the control of
the vestry of St. Marylebone, we are authorised to
state that the only cause of that thoroughfare being
out of repair was the fact that a considerable p irtlon
has been removed for the purpose of laying nee/ gas-
pipes, but that work having been completed, the au-
thorities have intimated to the Master of .the Horse
that the street has already been placed in a proper
condition for her Majesty to pass over it on the 27th
instant.
