ess magnifying power, and they do not require the frequent
changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assist-

Yesterday afternoon another valuable addition to
our fleet was made by the launch of the Newcastle,
51 guns, from Deptford dockyard. The weather
was, unfortunately, very unfavourable, notwith-
standing which there was a large assemblage of the
residents of the surrounding neighbourhood. At 20
minutes after 2 the signal was given that all was
ready, the ponderous blows of the shipwrights'
hammers were heard, and Mrs. Buckle having
dashed a bottle of wine against the bows of the
vessel, and named her the Newcastle, hydraulic
power was used, and in another instant the vessel
glided into the river amid the deafening acclama-
tions of those present. The Newcastle has been
about two years building, and is a sister vessel to
the Forte, launched from the same yard a few
months since. Her dimensions are as follow :
Length between perpendiculars, 250 ft. ; ditto over
all, 284 ft. gin. ; breadth extreme, 52ft. ; depth in
hold, 19ft. 2in. ; burthen in tons, 3,027 40-94. Her
armament will consist of the following :—Main
deck, 30 8-inch guns, 65 cwt., and 9ft. long; upper
deck, 20 32-pounder guns, 58 or 56 cwt., 9ft. 6in.
long; and pivot, 1 68-pounder, 95 cwt., 10ft. long.
Immediately after the launch the vessel was taken
in tow by the Monkey and the Princess Alice tug
steamers to Woolwich, where she will be fitted with
her engines, which are to be of 600 horse power.
The Rosario, 11 guns, will be launched this after-
noon from No. 5 slip, shortly before 2 o'clock.
Her Majesty's screw ship Himalaya, Capt. John
Seccombe, arrived at Spithead yesterday, shortly
after noon, from Malta and Gibraltar, with his
Excellency Mirza Jaffar Khan, the Persian Am-
bassador Extraordinary, on board, on a mission
from the Shah of Persia to the Court of St. James's.
The Himalaya was signalled to anchor at Spithead,
and on doing so she hoisted the Persian ensign at
the main. The Fire Queen paddle steamer, Master
Commander Paul, having on board Mr. Thompson,
of the Foreign-office, proceeded to Spithead in
readiness to bring his Excellency on shore. His
Excellency embarked on board the Fire Queen at
3 p.m., the Persian ensign being transferred to
her main from the Himalaya, and receiving a
salute of 19 guns from her Majesty's ship Trafalgar,
lying at Spithead, which, on the Fire Queen enter-
ing the harbour, was repeated from the guns on the
garrison saluting battery and from her Majesty's
ship Victory. His Excellency and suite landed at
the King's Stairs, the usual landing place of her
Majesty at the dockyard, where Vice-Admiral
Bruce, Rear-Admiral Grey, and their staffs, with a
guard of honour of the 11th Regiment, were in at-
tendance to receive his Excellency with the respect
and honours due to his rank. Carriages were in
waiting which conveyed his Excellency and suite
to Dent's George Hotel, in High-street, Portsmouth,
where Major-General Lord W. Paulet, C. 8., and a
brilliant Staff, with a guard of honour of the 2d
battalion 19th Regiment, were in attendance. His
Excellency on entering the hotel was received by
Hassan Vely Khan, Ambassador at the Court of the
Tuileries from the Shah of Persia, who had been
staying at the hotel for some days in readiness to
receive his colleague on his arrival in this country.
Sentries have been placed on duty in front of the
hotel, and every honour will be paid to the illus-
trous strangers during their stay in the garrison,
which will probably extend until noon to-day, his
Excellency having expressed a wish to visit the
dockyard before leaving for town. Last evening
his Excellency entertained Major-General Lord W.
Paulet, C. 8., Vice-Admiral H. W. Bruce, and Rear-
Admiral the Hon. G. Grey, at dinner, at Dent's
Hotel, to which also Capt. Seccombe was honoured
with a special invitation. The following are the
names and rank of the principal members of the
suite and attendants : —Mirza Hassan Khan, Secre-
tary of Embassy; Aly Khan, Second Secretary;
Mohamed Alyagd, first dragoman ; Mirza Mokhaly,
private secretary ; Mirza Izague, attache ; Mirza
Aly Agnber, surgeon ; Latonr Khan, Lieut.-Col.
and 2d dragoman ; Fazhale Khan, grandson of his
Excellency the Ambassador; and Agd Aly, Lalel
Bap, and Seyed Housen, personal attendant of his
Excellency. The Sprightly, steamer, Master-Com-
mander Allen, conveyed the luggage of the Embassy
on shore from the Himalaya, together with the
remaining personal attendants, &c. His Excel-
lency the Ambassador is in his 80th year. He
speaks the English language fluently, and is well
acquainted with our manners and institutions,
having been in this country for some period of time
during the reign of his late Majesty William IV.
The Himalaya sailed from Gibraltar at 5 30 p.m.
on Thursday last, and had stormy weather on the
passage home, strong N.E. winds off the coast of
Portugal, and heavy weather in the channel during
Monday night. She has brought home 207 naval
invalids, 108 military, with 17 women and 28 chil-
dren. Captain Nugent, of the 2d battalion 9th Foot;
Lieut. Bishop, of the Ist battalion 22d Foot ; Dr.
Ticker, 2d battalion of 4th Foot ; and Mr. Fyers,
clerk, &c. She has also on board about 300 tons of
old stores. The invalids will be landed this morn-
ing. While at Corfu the Himalaya was ordered by
the authorities there to proceed to Zante to take in
1,200 shells for conveyance to England. These
shells had but recently arrived from England, and
to England they were ordered to be conveyed, there
being no guns at Zante suitable for them. The guns
were on their way from England to Zante, but of
this fact it is presumed the authorities knew nothing.
The 1,200 shells were placed on board the Himalaya,
and by her conveyed to Malta, where Captain Sec-
combe brought the matter under the notice of the
admiral and the governor, and the shells were landed
by their order to be again sent to Zante the first
opportunity. Had Captain Seccombe not made the
admiral and governor at Malta acquainted with this
curious mode of returning stores the shells would
have been brought home to England to be again
sent out to Zante at an immense cost to the country.
The Landrail, 5, screw, Commander T. H. Martin,
took out powder and shell yesterday at Spithead,
and steamed into harbour to be docked.

The Harrier, 17, screw, was yesterday removed
from the ship basin at Portsmouth to the steam
basid, and the Rosamond, 6, paddle, from the lat-
ter to the former.

The hired steam transport Britannia yesterday
went alongside the Royal Arsenal pier, Woolwich,
in the service of the War Department,and commenced
embarking 22 heavy siege guns (68-pounders), to-
gether with other military small stores for Gibral-
tar. The Mystery and Guadalete sailed from the
Arsenal pier with army stores, and the following
named vessels have commenced shipping military
stores from Woolwich for foreign stations, namely:
The Alacrity, Triton ia, Palmerston, Margaret, Bessie
Seabright, Naparino, Circassian, Star of the North,
Zebra, India, Thames, Bosworth, Zealand, Thomas
Hankey, Aurora, Australian, Veloz, and Traveller.
A board of officers belonging to the steam re-
serve and the factory departments of Woolwich
Dockyard having been engaged in inspecting the
machinery of her Majesty's steam storeship Indus-
try, Master Hodges Commanding, in order to dis-
cover and remove the cause of her being obliged to
put back to Woolwich after having sailed on her
voyage to Rio de Janeiro and Ascension, in conse-
quence of the frame work of her engines having
given way, have reported to the Board of Admi-
ralty that a number of nuts and rivets had been
found forced into her cylinder in a manner not pro-
perly accounted for. Further inquiry is ordered to
be instituted. The Industry, having a cargo of vic-

Lieut John O'Reilly (B), R.N., has been pro-
moted to the rank of Commander, on the retired
list.

Colonel Walpole has not, retired from the service
with the rank and pay of a/major-general, as was
stated, but has, with the •anction of his Royal
Highness the General Commanding-in-Chief, been
relieved at Woolwich in el)nsequence of ill health.
The French class receStly formed in the Royal
Artillery garrison, Wool 4 ch, for the introduction
of that lqinguage smon4 the non-commissioned
officers, under the instruction of Professor Baron,
increases in number daily,! and having been zeal-
ously recommended and encouraged by Brigade
Major Shaw, it has been-found necessary to com-
mence a second class tindek the same tuition imme-
diately following the close of the first class studies.
ft is likewise under contemplation to engage the
services of M. Baron for the like purpose with the
Royal Marines and Royal Engineers at Woolwich,
a number of whom have expressed a desire to form
separate communities for the same object in their
own quarters. An apartment in the Royal Artil-
lery schools has been appropriated for the exclusive
use of M. Baron and his pupils, who assemble at

present only on two eve3ings in the week—namely,
Tuesdays and Fridays. Those who have joined, to
the number of about 30, are composed of the four
grades of non-commissioned officers, and are men, it
is stated, of untiring application and singular apti-
tude for improvement. The establishment of the
class is expected to contribute in a twofold manner
to the advantage of the garrison, as it will be the
means of absorbing the leisure hours hitherto de-
voted to occupations of a far less profitable and
satisfactory description.
