THE NAVE

In addition to those hired shipwrights who re-
ceived their discharge from Chatham dockyard on
Saturday last, another discharge of hired men whose
services are no longer required will be made at
that establishment to-morrow, the men selected for
discharge being inferior mechanics and those Whose
characters are not good. Yesterday morning a
large party of convicts arrived at St. Mary's
convict establishment from London, for the pur-
pose of being employed in the laborious works now
in progress in the dockyard, where there are daily
several hundred convicts at work.
The screw line-of-battle ships Royal Albert, 121,
Capt. E. B. Rice, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral
Sir Charles Fremantle ; the James Watt, 91, Capt.
E. Codd ; the Hero, 91, Capt. G. H. Seymour,
• the Algiers, 91, Capt. G. W. D. O'Callaghan ;
the C.B.Mersey, 40, Capt. H. Caldwell, C.B. ; and the
screw despatch gunboat Flying Fish, 6, Commander
Hope, left Portland harbour on Wednesday morn-
ing for a cruise in the Channel. The Agamemnon,
91, Capt. T. Hope ; the Emerald, 51, Capt. Arthur
Cumming; the Blenheim, 60, Capt. Scott; and the
Pioneer, 6, Commander May, are still at anchor.
The gunboat Biter, tender to. the Blenheim, left
Plymouth on Wednesday for Portland.
The screw steam troopship Himalaya,'Commander
Seccombe, got up steam on Wednesday in Ply-
mouth Sound, and returned again after a three
hours' cruise to test her machinery.
The screw steam frigate Curacoa, 31, Capt. T. H.
Mason, from Portland, arrived at Plymouth on
Wednesday. She is to be fitted for foreign service.
The Ariel, 9, screw, Commander Charles Brom-
ley, was paid off at Portsmouth yesterday. Wm.
Hall, quartermaster, received the medal with £l5
gratuity for long service. J. Adams, captain's
coxswain, William Conney, leading stoker, and
George Shell, sailmaker, received the gratuities
of £4 13s. 4d. each. Nearly the whole of the Ariel's
crew—a remarkably fine body—are continual sevice
men, and have mostly volunteered for the various
ships fitting in the port-13 have volunteered for
- the Neptune, 91, Capt. Sir Wm. Hoste, and six for
the Vulcan, screw troopship, Commander Strode.
The Simoom, Commander J. Cooke, at Portsmouth,
will have her crew " paid down" to-day, and granted
leave of absence ashore.
A grievance exists with reference to the seamen
pensioners lately called upon to serve in the steam
reserves, &c., in the various dockyards. The greater
part of these men were in some situation or small
way of business at the time they were called upon
to serve, which they have had to forfeit in the one
case and neglect in the other. In addition to this,
the men have received no pay or allowance from the
authorities during the time they have been serving,
and the consequence has been that in many cases
the greater part of their clothes and household fur-
niture have had to be disposed of to find a means
of support for their wives and families.
The steam storeship Rhadamanthus sailed from
Woolwich yesterday (Thursday), laden with steam
gear and 150 seamen recruits to be distributed to
ships fitting out at Sheerness.
Arthur Thomas has been appointed Master to
the Vulcan, and-Henry Aguillar Second-Master, to
the Grappler.

THE ARMY.

Her Majesty, accompanied by the Prince Con-
sort and the Princess Alice, will review the whole
of the troops in camp at Aldershott to-morrow.
The Duke of Cambridge and a brilliant staff of
officers are expected to be present.
His Royal Highness the General Commanding-
in-Chief, attended by his aide-de-camp, Colonel
Lord Burghersh, yesterday rode down to Woolwich,
and held an official inspection of the Royal Artil-
lery: The Duke arrived at ten o'clock, and was
received at the lower entrance to the garrison by
Capt. Freeth, Deputy Assistant - Quartermaster-
General. The Royal standard was immediately
hoisted at the Green-hill Battery, and the guns
commenced firing a Royal salute. The Commander-
in-Chief (joined by Major-General Sir Richard
Dacres, and the officers comprising the com-
mandant's staff of the garrison) then rode up to the
review ground, where the depot Brigade of Foot,
the Ist and 4th Siege and Field Brigades, and the
depot of the Horse Brigade, were mustered in line.
The corps consisted principally of young men
recently, enlisted, and who have passed through
the various gradations of drill and exercise.. After
the inspection the men marched past, and were dis-
missed, with the exception of the 4th brigade, who
were detained on the ground and manoeuvred. His
Royal Highness complimented the drill officers,
through the medium of the commandant, on the
readiness and efficiency displayed by the young
soldiers under arms, and proceeded to inspect a
couple of Captain Grant's cooking waggons, two
of which have been arranged and fitted up,
and were drawn out for the purpose. Although
both are constructed upon the same principle, the
arrangements for cooking are somewhat varied, one
being for the use of a regiment on a march, and the
other for the service of a hospital. The result of
the experiment performed last week in presence of
a committee assembled in the Royal Arsenal to test
their capabilities having been detailed,apnrdessd

—The sore throat, with more or less hoarseness, prevailing
at this season of the year, has for twenty rears been treated

with the above remedies with a degree of success far sur-
passing that of any other mode of treatment. The cure!
have been so remarkable, speedy, and numerous, that it
was predicted the new disease, diphtherite—consisting of
small ash-coloured ulcers in the interior of the throat, at-
tended by fever often fatal—might be arrested by
.the same
means, and such has been the case. This disease in its first
stage is even more amenable to Holloway's ointment and
pills than the simpler forms of inflammatory sore throat.

ing interesting information from _Du Barry's reDort on
