"By command of the Commander-in-Chief,
"THOMAS PELHAM', Capts.in of the Fleet."
The extreme beauty of the weather has already brought
thousands of anxious sight-seers into this garrison and
neighbourhood. Nothing else is talked about. We will
take leave to suggest that a strong body of London detec-
tivei should be at once on the spot, for myriads of seedy
males and females have already put in an appearance.
We will also advise that every lady or gentleman having
due regard for their jewellery and trinkets should dis-
pense with their outward show on this occasion.
We never remember having seen so many suspicious-
looking characters as are now located in the dens of this
port. Our local police are unequal to so great a task
and we trust that on so important an occasion the Home
Secretary will take into consideration the value of her
Majesty's subjects as regards their lives as well as their
pockets.
In addition to the vessels published in Monday's Sure,
placed for the accommodation of visitors, there will be
the Lizard, Spithead, Admiral Dundas ; Pigmy, harbour,
Victory ; Sprightly, dockyard, Admiral Martin ; Porcu-
pine, Spithead, foreign officers ; Locust, dockyard, Ad-
miral Berkeley ; Lucifer, dockyard, Sir C. Wood.

The French corvette Duchayla, Captain Longueville,
having on board Rear-Admiral Jurien de la Graviere
and a deputation of French nasal captains, has arrived
to attend the review. She left Cherbourg at 9 o'clock
yesterday, and arrived at Spithead soon after sin the
afternoon, arid saluted the flag of the Commander-in-chief,
Vice-Admiral Sir George Seymour, as well as that of
the garrison.
The compliment was duly returned.
This morning the whole of the French officers landed
at the dockyard steps, and paid a visit to the Commandcr-
in-chief, after which, attended by Captain Sir Thomas
Maitland, of the Excellent, and Captain Drummond, of
the Victory, with the engineer-in-chief (Mr. Murray),
they were shown over the dockyard, shipping, syc, The
officers dine at the Admiralty-house this evening. Mr
Vandenburgh, the French consul, has also been honoured
with an invitation.
On Thursday the French officers dine with the cap-
tain of the fleet, and take their departure for Cherbourg
on Friday.
The greater proportion of the officers were covered
with decorations. We particularly noticed the Victoria
medal.
The Commander-in-chief paid a complimentary visit to
the French corvette this afternoon, upon which occasion
complimentary salutes were exchanged between Duch-
ayla and Victory, flag-ship.

- Several gun-laoats were out to-day, and many colli-
sions have taken place.
Pirneer has broken her steam-pipe.
Other accidents have occurred.

COWES, April 21.—A t West Cowes the excitement
that prevails is immense. The whole town is placarded
with bills announcing the sailing of innumerable vessels
of all descriptions to the scene of the grand naval opera-
tions. It was Particularly curious to witness the crowds
of persons flocking round to the residence of Mr. Moore,
all anxious to obtain tickets ; and as each one obtained
the coveted prize it was highly amusing to hear the con-
gratulations expressed to them by those who had not
been equally fortunate.

QUEEN'S HOTEL, NORWOOD.—Departures Mau
rice, Mr. J. White, Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert, Mr. Drant,
Mr. and Mrs. Baker, Mr. and Mre. Broughton, and Mr.
and Mrs. Aicheson.
Al telegragwic despatch was, it is raid, received in
Paris a few days since from Lord Panmure, directing the
agents charged with the clothing for the men of the
Polish Legion in the pay of England, not to send the
articles to the depot at Scutari, but to England.
TRADE WITH RUSSIA.—THE BALTIC.—It appears from
co ornomications received at Lloyd's that the Neva was
expected to be free of ice by the 27th or 28th inst., the
thaw having been continuous. The :Russian Govern-
ment, it is expected, will immediately order the buoys
and light-houses in the Baltic, &c., to be replaced and re-
lighted, to guide ravigat ,rs. From reports received in
London yesterday it appears that ships Lave left Lubeck
'and several Swedish ports for Riga,
Would find that port °POD, believing that they
