The Gorgon, 6, paddle, Commander Bedford C.
T. Pim, arrived at Spithead on Saturday evening
from the West India station. She has made a long.
passage owing to her boilers being in a very defec-
tive state. Twelve naval invalids from ships on the
station have come home as supernumeraries in her.
She has also brought home three convicts from
Bermua, one on a charge of murder. It is expected
that she will go into Portsmouth harbour this morn-
ing.

The screw steam sloop Greyhound, 17, Comman-
der T. F. Sullivan, at Devonport, struck topmasts
on Friday, it being necessary to make some altera-
tions in her channels, to allow her yards to brace
up sharper, and thus be enabled to hold a better
wind. Her crew will be paid wages before she

proceeds to sea.
The screw steam frigate Emerald, 50, Capt. A.
Cuming, is now in dock at Keyham steamyard.
She grounded at Bermuda, and recently at Barn
Pool; but the only apparent damage sustained is
the loss of some 60 feet of copper off her false keel.
The crew of the guardship in ordinary Royal
Adelaide, Capt. Williams, at Devonport, were paid
wages on Friday in the presence of Rear-Admiral
Sir T. S. Pasley, and turned over to the hulk Endy-
mion, while the Indus was preparing to take the
place of the Wellington. •
The books of the steam guardship in ordinary
Wellington, Capt. C. Keys, at Devonport, were
closed on Friday.
The crew of the screw gun vessel Viper, 4, Com-
mander Hewett, at Devonport, were paid off on
Saturday, and the ship is placed in the third-class
steam ordinary.

The gunboat Porpoise, at Devonport, took on
board her powder on Friday. She will sail for Ire-
land to-morrow.

The screw steam-ship Orion, 91, Capt. Frere,
having bad defects made good, steamed from
Hamoaze, on Friday, into the Sound, and proceeded
to sea to try her machinery. On passing Milbay
she saluted the flag of gear-Admiral Sir T. S.
Pasley (who is doing duty as commander-in-chief),
which was acknowledged by the Impregnable, 104,
Capt. Lord F. Kerr, in Hamoaze.
Since the steam floating battery Thunder, 14,

150 horse-power, has been in dock at Chatham,
she has undergone a careful examination, in order
that the Admiralty may be made acquainted
with her condition. With the exception of some
portions of her interior the battery is in a very
sound condition with scarcely any apparent
signs of decay. The bottom, which was found
to be in an exceedingly foul state, is now being
cleaned and made ready for being coated with
Peacock's patent composition for preserving the
hull and destroying the marine worm.
The Racehorse, 4, screw steam sloop, 200 horse
pqwer, will leave Chatham harbour this day for the
coal depot at Sheerness, to take on board a supply
of coals, preparatory to going on a trial trip to test
her engines and machinery. She will afterwards re-
turn to Chatham to be made ready for the steam
