VALETTA, Jan. 12.—Her Majesty's despatch
vessel Psyche leaves to-day, at one o'clock, for
Marseilles, with Major Clarke, R.E., Director of
Admiralty Works, who is returning to England.
The order for her departure for the conveyance of
this officer was received by telegraph from the Ad-
miralty, and will entail a cost of fuel of between
£2OO and £3OO. The Meeanee, 60, is under orders
to proceed home to be paid off, and will leave for
Spithead next week. The Chanticleer, 17, expected
from Patras, will also go home shortly, to he put
out of commission. The Tyrian, 2, gunboat, went
to Tunis a short time ago to inquire into the state
of the lighthouse on the Cane Rock, the keepers
having signalled for assistance from her Majesty's
ship Megmra when passing the spot on her home-
ward voyage, being in want of water, which was
supplied to them. The Tyrian is expected back in
a few days. The telegraph steamer Hawke picked
up the faulty part of the Malta and Alexandria sub-
marine cable on the afternoon of the 10th inst., and
was to lay a new piece of cable the first fine day.
Her Majesty's ship Pelican, 17, was in attendance
upon her, and on the completion of the repairs was
to proceed to the coast of Syria. General Sir C. T.
Van Straubenzee, K.C.8., left Malta on the 9th
inst., in the Italian packet, for Italy, on his way to
England.

Commodore Superintendent Dunlop, of Woolwich
dockyard, accompanied by his naval secretary, Mr.
F. W. S. Ponsonby, yesterday inspected her Ma-
jesty's screw corvette Archer, lying at the powder-
buoy, off the Royal Arsenal, and mustered the crew
under arms. The Archer will proceed to the dock-
yard this morning, and will be hauled into basin to
be dismantled and pay off her crew.
The iron cased frigate Royal Alfred, 18 guns
3,726 tons, 800 horse power, under the command of

Commander Brett, the officer commanding the
steam reserve at Portsmouth, steamed out of Ports-
mouth harbour yesterday and gave her engines a
four hours' working under full steam pressure, pre-
paratory to her official trial of. speed at light water
draught over the measured mile. The engines were
in charge of Mr. Warrener, of the firm of Mauds-
lay, Field, and Co., the makers, and the trial, on
the part of the Admiralty, was conducted by Mr.
Ward, assistant to the chief engineer of Ports-
mouth dockyard, and Mr. Murdoch, inspector of
machinery afloat of the steam reserve. The ma-
chinery of the Royal Alfred consists of a pair of two
cylinder engines, the cylinders having a diameter of
82in. and a stroke of 4ft. By their performance
yesterday they gave ample promise of the Royal
Alfred attaining a rate of speed on her trial equal to
other ships of like tonnage and engine power.
The iron frigate Minotaur, Capt. Herbert, of the
turret ship Royal Sovereign, in provisional com-
mand, weighed her anchor at Spithead at 9 a.m.
yesterday, and proceeded out south of Dunnose,
Isle of Wight, on her first day's trial of her three
12i ton guns, and their broadside competitive pat-
tern carriages, under the supervision and direction
of Capt. Key, commanding the gunnery ship Ex-
cellent. The Minotaur returned to Spithead and
reanchored there shortly before sunset.

The Simoom, screw troopship, Capt. T. B. Leth-
bridge, was removed from the steam basin of Ports-
mouth dockyard yesterday, and berthed alongside
the harbour transport jetty. To-day she is ordered

to steam outside the harbour, and give her new en-
gines, manufactured for her by the steam factory
department of Portsmouth dockyard, a preliminary
trial of three or four hours without going over the
measured mile.

George Sloggett, shipwright of Pembroke dock-
yard, having been detected during the late annual
examination in using papers previously prepared,
and surreptitiously introdUed into the room in

which the examination was held, the Lords Com-
missioners of the Admiralty have ordered him to be

suspended from pay for 14 days, and not to be al-
lowed to compete for promotion for two years. The

above announcement is ordered to be promulgated
as a caution throughout her Majesty's dockyards.
The following officers of Royal Artillery, who
have been gazetted to commissions in the corps of

into operation on the Ist of April, the first day of
the financial year, when the whole of the workmen
and other hands who have for years been employed
at the military store department, Chatham, will be
discharged. The ordnance departments, with the
factories, workshops, and the whole of the stores,
will then be handed over to the officers and men of
the newly-raised corps, which will be organised on
a military footing. The present officials will be re-
tained in their existing rank, and will receive cor-
responding commissions in the Military Store
Corps. Of the existing workmen, those above a

certain age and length of service will receive a su-
perannuation allowance, and the remainder be

a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath the
same year.

The garrison orders of last night at Woolwich an-
nounced the intention of General Warde, command-
ing the district, to resume to-day the marching-out
drills, which have been suspended during the Christ-
mas vacation. The whole of the available troops in
garrison are under orders to parade this morning at
an early hour, and proceed in divisions along the
most frequented thoroughfares in the vicinity of the
garrison, the officers being directed to sketch the
most striking portions of the landscape which may
attract their notice. They will be accompanied by
the various regimental bands of music, and are or-
dered to return to quarters for the men's dinners at
1 o'clock. Gen. Morris, of the United States army,
has expressed his desire of joining Gen. Warde, and

The adjourned Quarter Sessions for the county
was held on IN ednesday, at Aylesbury, Sir T. F.
Fremantle presiding. The returns of the several
inspectors were laid before the court, from which
it appeared that the number of cases had been—for
the week ending December 30, 48 ; week ending
January 6, 25 ; week ending January 13, 25. The
number of recoveries had increased during the past
week from nine to 11. Only two districts in the
county were reported as exempt, but in these it was
stated that isolated cases had occurred. In the Brill
division, the Duke of Buckingham said he knew of
one case before the inspector was appointed, and in
the second division of the Desborough hundreds a
case occurred about a fortnight ago. The Duke of
Buckingham said that two new cases were reported
last night at Maidsmoreton, in a portion of the
Buckingham district hitherto free. The Duke of
Buckingham also mentioned a case in his neighbour-
hood, in which eight cows which had not had the
disease, but had been in contactwith diseased beasts,
were inoculated with matter from diseased animals.
Up to the present time they appeared to be doingwell.

On Sunday last, the 14th inst., a dinner was given
by Capt. Lord Rosehill to the non-commissioned
officers, drummers, and privates of No. 5 company
of the 2d battalion Scots Fusilier Guards, stationed
at Shorncliffc Camp, the occasion being to celebrate
the christening of the infant son and heir of Lord
Rosehill, who belongs to the company. After dinner
the usual loyal toasts, the health of Lord and Lady
Rosehill, and the health, long life, and happiness of
their son and heir `were drunk with great enthusiasm.
Sir John M'Gregor, K.C.8., the distinguished
military surgeon and physician, died on Saturday
last at Ryde, Isle of Wight, at the age of 74. He
was the second son of Mr. Duncan Macandrew, of
Culross, county Perth, N. 8., and assumed the name
of M'Gregor instead of his patronymic in August,
1863, the family being descended from the M'Gre-
gors of bora, the name having been changed after
the rebellion in Scotland in 1745. After his educa-
tion at the University of Edinburgh he entered the
medical branch of the army in 1809. He served in
the expedition to Walcheren in 1809, and in second
division of the army in the Peninsula, under Lord
Hill, from 1811 to 1813. He served in the Presi-
dencies of Madras and Bombay, twice .in Bengal,
and in the island of Ceylon, and for more than two
years as principal medical officer in Hongkong. As
before stated, he entered the medical department as
hospital assistant on June 27, 1809; became assist-
ant-surgeon,Feb. 15, 1810 ;regimental surgeon,April
30, 1822 ; staff-surgeon, July 7,1846; deputy inspec-
tor-general, Oct. 21, 1853, and was for some years
stationed at Madras in that capacity before his retire-
ment. Sir John was made an honorary physician

nition of his eminent professional services, created
