NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUT MONDAY.—The Phaeton, 50, Cup-
tain George Elliot, started from the Downs for this
port on Tuesday, but the wind becoming foul and
the tide also when off Folkestone, she ran back to an
anchor for the night. She has since been detained
by foul wind and employed in picking up an anchor
she lost. The swivel which broke was male of bsd
iron, and parted with very little strain on the cable—
fortunately when the crew were prepared ; " it might
have broken," says our letter, " when our safety
depended upon it." The Phaeton w:11 not leave the
Downs without a fair wind to carry her clear of Dun-
geness before dark. What with sick and men wait-

ing at this port and Plymouth, she is 100 short of
complement. Her volunteers from Liverpool were
all sent to Plymouth, or she would have been manned
long since. She will only lie one day at Spithead
with a fair wind, and two days if a foul one. She is
anxiously looked for here.
The Fortitude, for the Cape of Coed Hope, sailed
this morning.
The Lady Bruce emigrant-ship, Burns master,
sailed this morning for Port Natal. The three casks
of beef were sent on board this morning, where Mr.
Edward A. Smith, the assistant emigration officer,
inspected it, and finding it to be good, and of the
same quality as that required for emigrants, and all
other matters being in proper order, and the passen-
gers satisfied, Mr. Smith permitted the captain to get
under weigh. Accordingly, the ship started at one

P.M. this day, with a fine easterly breci?, for her des-
tination. Mr. Smith left the ship when she was just
under weigh, amidst the continued cheering of the
passengers. The passengers went away in high
spirits, and eminently satisfied with all the arrange-
ments for their comfort and settlement.

The Windsor, one of Green's fine fleet, for Madras
and Calcutta, arrived here ,from the river this morn-
ing, and with the facilities we noted yesterclosy,
embarked her stock and passengers, and got under
weigh this evening for her destination. No port in
the kingdom could evidence quicker dispatch.
PLYMOI3III, Fi n. 23.—The Gladiator steam- frigate,
Captain James Adams, steamed from the Sound yes-
terday forenoon. Outside the harbour she made.sail
with the wind from the north-west. Her tender, the
Jackal, steamed after her, assisted by her fore and aft
canvas. These vessels left Plymouth on the 31 in-
stant, bound for Madeira and the coast of Africa with
mails. Having encountered heavy weather and re-
ceived considerable damage, they put back for repairs,
and now make a second attempt to prosecute their
voyage.
The Hermes steamer, commander Fishbourne,
having in tow the brigantine Dart, Second Master Mr.
M'Clure, left port same time, bound to the Cape of
Good Hope.
The steam-sloop C3nflict, 8, Commander Thomas
G. Drake, came in yesterday from Lisbon, and pro-
ceeds to the eastward to repair her engines, which are
out of order.

The Diligence transport sailed yesterday with
stores for Pembroke.

The Nautilus, 10-gun brig, was docked on Thurs-
day to repair and refit.
The Crane and Linnet packets will be paid wages
during the ensuing week. _

LORD GOUGH AND MAJOR ED-
WARDES AT SOUTHAMPTON.
Yesterday the Assembly-rooms of the Victoria Hotel
were fitted up in gala style. At twelve o'clock the large
room was crammed with military and naval officers, no-
bility and gentry, and the inhabitatta of the town.
Lard Gough was clecora'ed with the insignia of all his
military honours, and, with his fernily, occupied the fwat
e.3.ts of en elevated dais, and was surrounded with the
inost distinguished persons in the town. As soon as the
cheers with which Lord Gough and Major Edwardes
weee greeted on their entrance had subsided,
Sir GEonnE HEWETT, Bart., of Freementle, who had
been an officer in Lord Gough's regiment, and had
served under his Lordship, addressed the veteran war-
rior in a teraceful speech, and then presented to him the
following address:
To GENERAL THE RIGFIT HON. LORD VISCOUNT
COUGH, G.C.B.
" We, the undersigned residents of Southampton and
its neighbourhood, beg leave respectfully to offer your
Lordship our sincere congratulecloas on your return to
your uative country, and to express our unfeigned al-
miretion of the many splendid victories gained by the
British arms untller your Lordship's command. We are
not unmindful that your Lordship has been engaged up-
wards of fifty years in the service of your country, load-
ing our soldiers to victory, in the Peninsula, in China,
and India, more particularly in the l'unjeub, where the
splendid achievements of the army under your Lora.-
ship's command have placed your name in the proud
position of one of the most distinguished soldiers of this
or any ether country. Knowing that your Lordship
has remised the highest marks of our Most Gracious
Majesty's approbation, as well as on repeated occasions
the unanimous thanks of both Houses of Parliament
for your Lordship's eminent and distinguished service,
we hail with the highest possible gratification this ear-
liest opportunity ef welcoming your Loxdthip on your
arrival at this pert, and of wishing your Lordship a
long continuance of health and happiness, and that the
blessings of the Almighty Disposer of human events may
rest upon the remainder of your days. In this our wel-
comeand the expression of our good wishes, we beg to
include Lady Gough and your family."
After a few moments Lord Gough rose and said—
" Sir George Hewett, ladies, aid gentle,nen,—l thank
you tut, sincerely for this very fl roering mark of at-
tention towards me, a perfect stranger to many of you,
without ether pretensions than that to which so many
naval and military men may justly lay c'a'm, an anxicus
wish to foul t ) the utmost of their power and ability
their duty to our Queen and our country, and to uphold
that which has been so justly acquired by the Anglo-
Indian army, the supreme:3r of the British power in
India, contributing as it does so largely to the proud pc-
sition England new holds, proud from her military
achievements, but much more proud from the loyalty
of her sons. An absence of thirteen years has not
lessened my nationality. Whilst warmly engaged in
conducting war in distant lands, I have watched with
deep interest the course of events in Europe, and I land
on this favoured spot and on your fare-honoured
sliorer, with a deep feeling of gratitude to that All-
wise Disposer o: events, who has grit oe 13 • uchse fed
his shield of protectiun through not a few (kide of danger
but ever in fieLis of cenerest, to the aged seldier who
now addresses you. It is that Almighty Being who
has safely cenlucted me with my long tried friend end
pattner, together with so many m:.mbers of may
to this land < f loyalty and true freedom. Called by a
gracious Sovereign to the pe rformani e of other duties, I
shall pray for the power of f them whit the same
devote loess as drat which I trust history will accord to
a career of mili' aq exertion extending over a period of
fif.3 -six years. I'e:A the great bles,lng of peace may be
the result of the recent military oreettions in India,
which have a ided to our territories one of its richest
provinces, I have a confident hope—but should our anti-
cipations not be realised, my country may safely confide
in the w gallaatry, p:Aient endurance and c'evo-
Con of the gallant army I had the good fortune to com-
mend—an army that never met a foe but to subdue
them—that never coin nazneed a campaign wi:hout crown-
ire its terminatiqn with complete success. Again, my
deer coil; t -ymen, allow me, on the part of La ly Gough
and myself, to return you my best a_knowledgraents,
my warzneet thanks, far this to me must valuable ter -
timeny.of 30ur aperoval. It afforde me double gratifi-
cation to receive this address from the hands of one of
my 'oldest friends and esteemed comrades, Sir George
Hewett."
Cheers were then again given fir Lord and Lady
G3ugh, who bowed her acknowledgments. His Lord-
s** then led off a round of cheering fir the Queen, and
retired with a'l his family and a numerous retinue of
friends to his hotel. His Lordship hft Southampton for
town at two o'clock.
The following resolution was moved and carried at the
town council of Southampton last week, in anticipation
of the arrival of Lord Gough, and which prevented his
Lordship being welcomed by the civic authorities of
that town when he landed on Sunday night:—
" That as war has ever been opposed to the best inte-
rests of mankind in its fearful consequences against the
pecuniary, physical, and moral well-being of he people:
that as it is diamet-ically opposed to the precept and
spirit of the Christian religion: and as this council is
composed of men professing Cnristianity, it would be
grossly inccusietent for them to manifest any demonstra-
tion of approbation on the landing at this port of any
general officer or other warrior: and more especially of
one who has been so recently engaged in a most destruc-
tive war in India, almost a war of extermination, where,
in many cases, no quarter was given, and the most bar-
barous excesses committed."
ARRIVAL IN LONDON.
The gallant hero of Citiiiianwalah :snivel at the
Waterloo terminus of the South-Western Railway at
live o'clock yesterday afternoon, having travelled from
Southampton by the two p.m. up train. The disestors
of the railway, anxious to show every respect to his
Lordship, placed a special train at his dieposal, but the
Noble Lord p:ef!rred travelling by the ordinary traiu,
and hence his arrival as above stet rd. A considerable
number of persons had assembled at the station before
five o'clock, and when the train drew up alongsiee the
platform, and his Lordship tea i discovered seined in one
of the carriages with Lilly Gough and his son, Captain
the Hon. George Gough, they gave the Gallant General
a hearty cheer of wok:0mo, which his Lordahip very
courteously adzoowled,;,ed.
The gallant Major E.twardes arrived in town by the
same train, accompanied by his wife and two children.
Lord Gcugh, belire leaving the station, shook bands
very heartily with the Major and his wife, and then en-
tering a carriage which was in aq6ndance, drove off to
his son's nsideneo, No. 24, Upper Brook-street, where
his Lordship will remain at prer eat.
In the suits of Lord Gough were his nephew, Col.
John Gough of the 3d DragoonF, Qaattermaster
General cf the Q teen's forces in India, Capt. Fraser
Tytler, of tee lien,,al Native Cavalry, Major Bates.
Capt. Wallace, and Capt. the Hon. George Gough, of
the Grenadier Guards, his Lordship's son, the latter
having gone down to Southampton on Saturday to meet
his noble parents.
Lord Gough is looking remarkably well, and with the
xc'ptiun that his hair and whiskers have become quite
white, he loeks litde the worse for the thirteen years'
hard service he has undergone in the East. Lady Gough
is else looking very well.
Major Edwardes, by 'his own request, has acted as
princival aide-c'e camp to Lord (lough throughout
the jeu:ney from the Punjaub. It is a mis-
take to suepose that the gallant major is the bearer
of the celthretnl diamond won by his valour, aged
presented by Lord Dalhousie to the Queen. This je,vel
is still in India.

A BOY ACCIDENTALLY HUNG.—On Saturday last
a very singular fatality 00.-urred at Brcightmet, near
Boiron, to a 1; tdo boy, about fiurtec n years of age, named
David Greenhalgh, the son of a publican there, who by
so pc means connived to hang himself in a meadow oc-
cupied by his father, while trying to disengage a rote
from the bough t_f a tree on which some children hal
been sainging. At the inquest held on the body by Mr.
Iluttar, on Monday, the father of the boy said, as he was
passing through the mtalow en Saturday morning, he
saw a number of boys Lwingirg on a rope, which had
user. thrown across the bough of a large t:e2, and at ono
end of which they had made a slip noose, through which
was stuck a piece of wood to sit upor. On seeing him
approach the children ran away, leaving the rope fast to
the tree, when he took out and carried away the piece of
wood used as a seat, and desired his son (the deceased)
to take down the rope. In a filly minutes efter he re-
turned past tho tie), and found his son hanging by the
neck, and quite dens', the poor lad having, as he sup-
posed, placed the slip noose round his neck and then
jumped up towards the bough to unloose the other end,
in doing which he must have fallen and dislocated his
neck. When found he was in a stooping position, with
his knees half bent, but when rai!el up the rope was
quite slack, so that he could nct have hung himself. Vcr-
dict--" Accidental dislocation of the neck."—Liverpool
