Two Hundred Helical Gentlemen to be the moat effective

of a steel spring, so otteu hurtful in its effects, is here
avoided—a soft bandage being worn round the body, while
the requisite resisting power is supplied by the Hoc-Main

ness that it cannot be detected, and may be morn during
sleep. A descriptive circular may be had, and the truss,

three-decker, Capt. the Hon J. Egerton, A.D.C. to
the Queen, when the American standard was hoisted
at the Victory's main royal masthead and saluted
with 19 guns.
The Rosario, 11, screw sloop, 150-horse power,
Commander Louis 11. Versturme, arrived at Spit-

head yesterday morning from the West Indies, and
received orders to proceed round to Sheerness to
dismantle and pay out of commission. She brought
home a few naval invalids, who were transferred to
her Majesty's ship Victory, in Portsmouth harbour,
by the Pigmy steam tender. The Rosario has made
a somewhat long passage home, having sailed from
Bermuda on the 6th ult.

The screw steam frigate Leander, 39, Captain
William C. 8., from the PacifiC station,
arrived at Plymouth on Sunday morning. She left
Callao July 2, rounded Cape Horn in lat. 60 S. July
31, arrived at Ascension August 24, and left in com-
pany with the Bristol August 28. When rounding
the Horn in lat. 58 S. many icebergs were observed ;
for four days they were so thick as to make the
navigation difficult. Throughout the entire passage
fine weather has been experienced. The Leander
spoke, August 24, lat. 8 23 S., long. 14 06 W., the
ship Jumna, from Bombay ; Sept. 10, lat 14 28 N.,
long. 25 23 W., the ship Ceylon ; and Sept. 28, off
Scilly, the British Constitution ; and off the Land's-
end the bark Hero of the Nile. The Leander brings
some naval supernumerary invalids and prisoners ;
she will probably be paid off at Sheerness. Her band-
master was drowned off Cape Horn, and an invalid
blacksmith died subsequently. She lost above four
days in the passage from Ascension through being
in company with the Bristol, having had frequently
to keep her topsails down when not towing. They
parted company on the 11th September, iu lab. 15 N.,
off the Cape Verd Islands, at which time the crew
of the Bristol were in a very healthy state. She is
commanded by Capt. Leveson E. H. Somerset, car-
ries the flag of Commodore Geoffrey T. P. Hornby,
and leaves her duty on the station on the West
Coast of Africa partly through the previous sickness
of her crew, and partly in consequence of defective

machinery.
The screw sloop Swallow, 9, 486 tons, 60-horse
power (nominal), Master Commander E. Wilds, was
yesterday put out of commission and the ship's com-
pany paid off in the steam basin at Sheerness. The
Swallow was placed in commission in the latter part
of 1861, and from the length of time she has been in
service she will require an extensive overhaul of both
engines and hull, and be furnished with new boilers
before she again hoists the pennant.
A naval court-martial, composed of Captains W.
C. Chamberlain (President), C. Fellowes, F. A.
Herbert, E. Tumour, and D'Aplin, assembled on
board her Majesty's ship Victory, at Portsmouth,
yesterday morning, for the trial of Edward Reynolds,
private Royal Marines, serving on board the Victory,
on three charges-1, absence withon,t leave ;2, using
threatening language to Sergt. Shaw, R.M.L.I. ;
3, striking the said Sergt. Shaw. The Court found
all the charges proved, and sentenced the prisoner
to be imprisoned for 12 months, with hard labour,
in the naval gaol at Lewes, and seven out of every
28 days to be solitary.
The deaths of the following officers have been
officially reported at the Admiralty since the Ist
