NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

The Nancy Dawson. schooner-yacht, that has be-n so
deservedly famed for the energetic and spirited assistance
she rendered to the Herald and Plover, in their explora-
tion to the north of Behring's Straits, last summer, when
ine"er the command of her (late) enterprising owner, Mr.
Sheddon, arrived at Portsmouth on t-Faturday, at noon
(we on that day announced her arrival at Plymouth),
under the command of Mr. James S. Hill, late master
f the Herald, surve3ing vessel.
The Nancy Dawson was built by Mr. Camper, of
Gosport. She is 163 tons 0. M. burden, and was fitted
in 1848 by Mr. Sheddon, her owner and captain, for a
so) age round the world. She was armed with fear six-
pounders arid guns, had a complement of thirty men and
three officers, and sailed from Leith 19th of March, 1848,
consequently has been absent from England two years
and about four months. She has bad one of the most
interesting voyages on record, and it is to be regretted
that her intelligent and persevering owner did not live
to give it to the world.
As we think it may be interesting to some of our
readers, we give her route. From Leith she proceeded
to Porto Santo and Madeira, Teneriffe, and St. Jago, to
Rio, where she watered and provisioned. From Rio to
the island of Tristian de Cunha, sighted the Cape—an-
chored in B izanvale Bay, on the west coast of blade-
eascar, to the island of Johanna to Bombay to refit.
From Bombay to Goa, Point de Galle, Ceylon, Calulu-
brian Bay in Samara, through the Straits of
Sundt), touching on Anger and Batavia, passing through
!he island groups of the Malaccas and Macassar to
Hong-Kong.
From Hong-Kong the yacht proceeded to the Loo-
choo group of islands, from thence to Japan, then north
t ) the harbour of Potropaalorich in Kamschatka, re-
rnaining there a short time. She then passed through
B2hring's Straits to Kotzebue's Sound, where she fell in
with, and proceeded north with, the exploring ships
Herald aad Plover to Wainwright's Inlet. The waters
bounding the north extreme of the American conti-
nent proving too shoal for the Herald and Plover, Mr.
Sheddon nobly volunteered to proceed with the boat
expedition to the Mackenzie River as far as the
water and ice would permit, and he rendered Lieutenant
Pullen, who had charge of the boats, much valuable and
timely assistance on various occasions; nor did he quit
the boats until the water proved too shoal and the field
ice came in so as to render further advance for the Nancy
Dawson totally impracticable. The yacht, however,
reached Elson's Bay in longitude 154 W., about two
degrees further to the N.E. of Behring's Straits than any
sailing vessel had hitherto gone. She there awaited the
return of two boats that, having been loaded with pro-
visions, were ordered to attend on Lieutenant Pullen, and
gave him a last supply; these boats the yacht towed
back to the Herald and Plover in Koixebue's Sound.
After remaining in the sound for some time to refit, the
Herald and Nancy Dawson sailed for Mazatlan, leaving
the Plover secured for the winter close under Choris
Peninsular. The two vessels arrived at Mazatlan on the
13th November. Mr. Shedder) had been for the last pre-
vious six weeks unwell and complaining, and on the 16tk he
died very deeply regretted .by the officers and crews of
both vessels. When the yacht left Kotzebue's Sound Mr.
W. F. Parsons (second master) had been lent to her
from the Herald to assist in her navigation, but on the
death of Mr. Sheddon, the master of the Herald, Mr.
Hill took command of the yacht to bring her home, Mr.

The Nancy Dawson sailed from Mazatlan
Kellett,
December (leaving the Herald, Captain
Cape Lucas, about to resume her survey at Guanos),
and arrived at Valparaiso on the 27th February. On
the 13th March she sailed from Valparaiso (leaving
there the Daedalus,s, 19, Captain Wellesley, and the Ne-
reus, store depot), and entered the Straits of Magellan
on the let of April. She here fell in with a whole fleet
of American vessels—ships, steamers, and schooners—
bound to California. One vessel bad been wrecked at
Barranca Point, in the first narrows of the straits; the
crew were saved by the Gorgon. The Gorgon had also
assisted several others—one that had lost all her ground
tickle, and she supplied her with anchors. Oa the 9th
of April the Nancy Dawson fell in with the exploring ship
Enterprise, Captain Collinson, and the Gorgon, steamer,
Captain Painter. She remained two days in company with
these vevels and brought home dispatches for the Ad-
miralty and a quantity of letters, leaving them at the
eastern entrance of the Straits of Magellan on the 11th
of April. The Investigator had parted company with
the Enterprise in the English Channel soon after sail-
ing from England, and hid not joined when the yacht
parted from the latter ship (intelligence from Captain
Collimon, of a later dare than that brought by the
Nancy Dawson, announces the satisfactory information
that the Investigator joined him in the Straits on the
16th of April). It was the intention of Captain Collin-
son, in order t) save time, to proceed with his ships
direct to the Sandwich Islands, in the hope of getting
to tee north of Behring's Straits before the winter set in.
The Nancy Dawson put into Bahia on the 14th of
May for provisions and water. The fever was reported

During the time she has been circumnavigating the
globe and exploring st,-ange countries, >she has endured
all sorts cf .climates, the extremes of heat and cold, and
has experienced all sorts of weather from calms to tor-
nadoes; but she has comparatively suffered but little
damage. She is said to be rt roost excellent sea boat,
and has hardly strained a rope yarn. She has also been
very healthy ; only two persons have died on board
(with the exception of her gallant and enterprising
owner), and these were unhealthy persons when she
first sailed. She is rigged for bard service as a two top-
sail schooner, is extremely snug, and is not over-masted
as yachts general!), are.

PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY.—The Vengeance, 84, Capt.
Sir Henry Blackwood, having been stripped, her topsail
and lower yards only remaining across, and her unser-
viceable stores having been all returned, the officers and
crew received leave on shore, on Saturday evening, to
Tuesday evening, as, on account of her pay-book not
being completed, she will not be paid off till Wednesday.
As her copper is supposed to be In a bad state the Ven-
geance will come into dock to have it examined.
The Medea. steam-sloop, Comminder Lockyer, having
been dismantled, off the King's-stairs, was taken round
to the steam-basin on Saturday; she will be paid off on
Monday.
The Cuckoo, steamer, was taken out of dock on Satur-
day morning, and the Fairy royal yacht-steamer was
brought in to have her bottom scrubbed down, &c.

Polyphemus, sloop-steamer, has been fitted and
rigged in the old basin. She is to be taken to Wool-
wich by Mr. M'Donald, master attendant, and a party
of riggers, who will bring back to Portsmouth the
Retribution.

Geyser. steam-sloop, that arrived under sail from the
Cape on Friday evening, sailed again on Saturday morn-
ing, for Woolwich, to pay off.
It is reported that the Fox, 42 (an old 38-gun
frigate lengthened by the bow), that has just received a
thorough repair, will be commissioned for the India,
broad pendant ship, instead of the Medea, iron steamer.
The Dragon steam-frigate is ordered to be com-
missioned at this port by Captain Henry Wells Giffard
with a complement of 200 men.
A Turkish squadron is daily expected here, and it is
said Captain Slade (additional of the Queen) has the
escort of the squadron to Spithead.
The Trafalgar, 120, is expected to be commissioned
daily at Sheerness, to replace the Howe on the Medi-
terranean station.

The soath wind has shifted, and it now blows a strong
breeze from the N.E., with cloudy weather and occa-
sionally showers of rain.
The following young gentlemen have lately been ap-
pointed naval cadets from Dr. Burney's Academy, Gos-
port:—Messrs.:George Gregorie and Edward Kirby, to
the Indefatigable; Mr. George Bridges, to the Phaeton;
Messrs. C. Bigg Wither, William Kerr, and John Swann,
to the Arethusa; Mr. Richard Onslow, to the Victory;
Mr. Digby Morant, to the Impregnable; Mr. J. Louis
Hope, to the Albion.
The Commander•in-Chief of the Pacific station will
have had his flag hoisted for the term of three years next
month.
Captain Houston Stewart, C. 8., is absent from the
Admiralty, on the Continent.
A return has been called for by the House of Com-
mons of the names and present rank of all naval and
military officers holding any civil appointment, stating
the nature of the office held by each, date of appoint-
ment, and the rank held at the time of such appointment,
the amount of salary, half-pay pensions and allowances
received by them respectively, and whether on the
active or retired list, distinguishing the total amount re-
ceived by each.
The sentence of the court-martial on First Lieute-
nant Usher, of the Woolwich division of Royal Marines,
for assaulting Lieutenant Newton, of the same division,
was formally a severe reprimand. It is generally
thought, however, that his professional prospects wilt
not suffer by the sentence passed up el him.

AMERICAN NEWS.

LIVERPOOL' SIINDAY.—By the Royal mail steam•
ship Canada, Captain Harrison, we have New York
papnlrs to the 25th, Boston to the 26th, and Halifax
to the 28th ult. respectively. la addition, we have a
telegraphic communication, via the latter port, con-
tainiug news from New York to the 27th.
The steam-ship Niagara arrived at New York on
the 27th.

The royal mail steam-ship Thames arrived at
Mobile on the 19th with 300,000 dolls. in specie on
freight.
The steam-ships Ohio and Crescent City were at
New York, from California, with gdld to the amount
of 400,000 dolls.
Advices from San Francisco, Calirornia, to the 15th
of May had been received at New York by the
Crescent City. This steamer had about 250,000
dolls. in gold dust, all in private hands. Another
destructive fire took place at San Francisco on the
morning of May 4, reducing nearly one-third of the
city to ashes, and consuming property to the amount
of 5,000,000 dolls. The fire was supposed to be the
work of an incendiary, for whose detection a reward
of 5,000 dolls. is offered. The health of Chagres and
Panama was good.
Gold was still found in abundance. The most ex-
travagant stories are told of Tuolumo Placer, lately
discovered on the river of that name, near Columbia
city. The Stockton Times says that a simple state-
ment of facts far surpasses the most wondrous dream
of the necromancer. It states that lumps of pure
gold had been found to the depth of 60 feet from the
surface, and that two large masses of gold, one weigh-
ing 231 b. 20z., the other 101 b. lloz., had been dug
from the placer.
The grand jury at New Orleans had found true
bills against General Lopez, Mr. Sigur. Governor
Quitman, Judge C. Pinckney Smith, of Mississippi ;
ex-Governor Henderson, Mr. O'Sullivan, and ten
other of the Cuban invaders. The reported release of
the prisoners taken by the Cuban authorities appears
to be incorrect. Their trial was still in progress on
board the Spanish 74 lying in the port. A strict
guard was stationed around the vessel, so as to pre-
vent any communication. The United States Con-
sul, Mr. Campbell, and the naval commander, Com-
mander Randolph, were refused permission to hold
any intercourse with the prisoners. The authorities
declared that they should be tried by the laws of
maritime nations, and, if found guilty, visited with
just punishment. Several deaths have occurred
among the prisoners. Two United States vessels of
war were lying off in the harbour, awaiting further
orders.

In the Senate on the 24th Mr. Abbot Lawrence's
appointment as Minister to England was confirmed.
The debates in Congress had not resulted in the ac-
complishment of any of the slavery measures which
have been before the House for such a length of time.

A formidable crevasse had broken out the Mis-
sissippi, at the Grand Levee, in the parish of Point
Coupee, which threatened the most serious damage to
some of the richest and most fertile portions of
Louisiana. The first break took place on the 10th
instant, and in two days were found by measurement
to be ISQ yards wide. Every attempt to arrest its
progress had been abandoned, and the worst fears in
regard to its effects seemed likely to be realized.
From Port su Prince we learn that the island of
Hayti was in a state of perfect tranquillity. Business
was reduced to an extreme point of depression.
Money was scarce, and little copper, logwood, or
mahogany in the market.
Advices from Guadeloupe report that the insurrec-
tion among the negroes had been completely quelled
by the Government, several of the principal ring-
leaders having been shot.
. _

We learn from 'Venezuela that General Paez had
sailed for St. Thomas's, en route to the United States.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
NEW YORK, TUESDAY, JUNE 25.

MONEY MARKET.

The transactions in the commercial world since our
last issue have been without importance. The tendency
of the stock market has been downward, and the limited
operations afford hardly movement enough for quota-
tions. A few Government Sixes, '67. have been sold at
1151 to 1151; '56, at 1064; '62, at 1114; and '6B, at
115 f. For the new Ohio Loan, '75, Sixes, 115 is bid.
Generally in State Stocks there is nothing doing. The
supply in the market is very small. Erie bonds are 105 i,
and 97f fir first and second mortgages.
Money on short call, and even for 69 or 90 days, con-
tinues to press on the market at 3f to 4 per cent. on the
better class of stocks. On stocks in fair repute 4k to 5
per cent. is paid. The banks have large amounts of
money to lend, and this is, we understand. particularly
the case with the savings banks. The coming two wsmks
will relea%o at least 1,000,000 of coin from our Sub-
treasury, and in addition to this we shall probably re-
ceive 1,500,000 of golddust from California. From
these sources an amount of coin will be poured into the
banks four times as large as can be abstracted by the de-
mand for shipment to Europe, even should exchange re-
main at its present high point. Tho current opinion
appears to be that these shipments can in no event ex-
ceed 5,000,000 during the season, and probably will not
reach 3,000,000. Either amount we can lose without
any embarrassment to our moneyed institutions, in view
of the continued secession irom California and the in-
terior.

Cotton—The sales to-day were 2,000 bales. The
letters per Cambria were delivered this morning. The
same strain runs through all of them that we have heard
of. " Holders offer their supplies so freely that, fearing
to hold for a day, they have offered through five or six
brokers on the same day." "From some free publica-
tions that have been made here, it is evident you are
gumming us about another short crop—we fear it is in-
tended for our side only, and do not intend to allow our-
selves to be duped by such a tremendous humbug."
Holders on this side do not consider it a humbug, nor
do we believe that a solitary published account has over-
stated the probable deficiency from the next crop. Cer-
tainly none have been published in this paper near so
bad as several letters received to-day from Sifissis3iPPl
and Louisiana state it. The market has not been sup-
plied as freely with samples this week as heretofore, and
each day that has elapsed has given a decided advan-
tage to holders, who only replace the samples disposed
of by others a shade inferior in quality, and a shade
higher in prices, and, as buyers are well aware that this
is the cheapest market in the country, they have shown
continued avidity to increase their purchases. Several
orders were executed in this market the past week for
one of the largest corporations at Lawrence, Massachu-
setts, who buy reluctantly here, and simply because
clean cottons are almost impossible t > procure at any
of the Southern Gulf ports. The prices paid to-day in-
dicate a market ranging from a half to five•eiliths of a
cent advance since the departure of the America, on the
19th inst., with only about half the quantity on sale.
We have taken great pains to estimate the actual stock
in this city, and are quite satisfied that our previous ba-
lance was correct. We have put it usually at from
20,000 to 25,000 less than others, which would give a
stock of 85,000 bales, by deducting the amount recently
taken out of the city. It is estimated by a brokerage
firm, who have been several days revising it, not to ex-
ceed 80,000 bales available. We annex the quota-
tions at which buyers are disposed to meet holders. The
asking prices are about one-qearter cent above these
figures:—
The prices for Liverpool classification are—

NE W YORK, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 27.

Excepting the usual commercial intelligence there is
nothing of marked interest for telegraphic communica-
tion since the C,►nada sailed.

Telegraphic accounts by the Niagara have but slightly
affected the cotton market.

The lower grades could be bought one-eighth cent.
under Tuesday's prices, but all descriptions above mid-
dling are fully at dear, whilst really good and fine cow•
mind one-fourth cent. higher rates. C,rn and flour
markets rather dull, without any change of importance
in priceP. Canada flour steady at 5 dolls, to 5 dolls. 6e.
Stock market buoyant, with increased activity.
There is great demand for Erie Railroad Stock, and

at 761. Exchange, 1101.
