I yesterday
morning
Admiralty received on board the Osborne, in Ha-
moaze, Admiral Yelverton and the principal officers
of the Channel squadron now at Plymouth. Their
Lordships there witnessed from the deck of their
yacht the exercise of the crew of the gunnery ship
Cambridge, Capt. Charles J. F. Ewart, at target
firing. At 11 o'clock Sir J. Pakington, the First
Lord, accompanied by all the members of the Board,
excepting Admiral Sir Sidney Dacres and Admiral
Sir John Dalrymple, landed at Devonport Dock-
yard, where they were met by Admiral Superinten-
dent Drummond, the Master Attendant, Commander
Joseph K. Martyn, and the other official personages
connected with the establishment. A Board was
then formed in the office of the Superintendent,
where their Lordships remained for some time in
consultation.
On Thursday afternoon the Controller of the
Navy, Admiral Robinson, went into Plymouth Sound
and visited the flagship Caledonia, 30, Capt. Foley ;
the Achilles, 26, Capt. Vansittart ; the Liverpool,
35, Capt. Seccombe, and other ships belonging to
the Channel Squadron. At the same time the Con-
troller of Victualling, Mr. Richards, inspected the
Royal William Victualling-yard at Stonehouse.
The iron screw steam storeship Tamar, 2, Capt.
Frederick 11. Stirling, from Portsmouth, arrived
yesterday at Plymouth with the Ist battalion of the
17th Regiment, who were disembarked at the Royal
William Victualling-yard. The Tamar is appointed
to embark a portion of the 13th Regiment at Ply_
mouth for conveyance to Queenstown.
Instructions have been received at Chatham Dock-
yard directing about half a ton weight of the iron.
ballast used in paving some portions of the yard to
be sent to Birmingham in order to be tested by
Messrs. Ryland and Co, for the purpose referred to
iu a paragraph which appeared in The Sun of Wed,
nesday last. This particular description of ballast
has been used chiefly in paving those parts of the
dockyard on which the traction engines in use at the
establishment are accustomed to travel.
The 17-gun screw sloop Cameleon, 952 tons, 200-
horse power, is in. No. 1 dock at Sheerness, where she _
is undergoing very extensive repair to both machi-
nery, engines, and hull. The removal of her plank-
ing has led to the discovery of several defective
timbers, which are being taken out and replaced
' with new. By direction of the Admiralty, she is to
be fitted with a topgallant forecastle. Her boilers
and the whole of her machinery have been removed
since she has been in dock, in order to undergo the
necessary repairs and overhaul in the steam factory
at the dockyard.
The Reindeer, 7, 200 horse power, sloop corvette,
was put out of dock. at Chatham yesterday, and
placed at moorings alongside the sheer hulk in the
harbour. .
The steam dredging machine in use at Chatham
Dockyard is ordered to be towed down to Sheer-
ness, to be employed in removing a sandbank which
has accumulated in that harbour, near the dock-
yard.
In the description of the screw frigate Endymion,
21, 500 horse power; which appeared in the Naval
Intelligence in The San of yesterday, the guns with
which she is armed should have been described as
100-pounders and not 300 pounders, as stated.
An order was yesterday received at Chatham
directing a detachment of gunners from the B bat:
tery, 4th brigade, Royal Field Artillery, to embark
on Tuesday next with the draughts of infantiy
troops under orders to proceed to Canada.
All the available officers and sappers of the Royal
Engineers at headquarters, Chatham, not otherwise
required for engineering duties, have been for some
time past employed in a series of extensive field
operations, covering the whole extent of the lower
lines sloping down to the Medway. Among the
works already constructed is an admirably-executed
four-gun battery, together with some smaller bat-
teries, first and second parallels, and rifle pits ; the
whole of the works, which cover a large extent of
ground, being finished with an excellence not usually
observed in engineering operations of the kind.
Although nothing definite is known at headquarters,
it is probable the officials may decide on turning the
works now completed to a practicaluse by directing
a sham fight and assault on the garrison to be
undertaken by the troops prior to the batteries
and other works being destroyed, and the ground
again levelled for the winter season.

complaints, there is no medicine known that will give such
immediate relief as these renowned pills; young and old,
rich and poor, patronize them,, so many cures are
effected by their use, that their praise is sounded from the
torrid to the frigid zone ; in truth, persons who travel con-
sider them a necessary requisite. In sultry weather
or
warm climate, or in India, the blood becomes overheated,
the liver torpid, the skin covered with prickly heat, and
the whole system languid and exhausted
soon gives relief as Holloway's pills. • Nothing so
