NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
PLYMOUTH,
John Hay, C. 8., Commodore of the first class, on his
FEB. 17.—The flag of Captain Lord
appointment as Commodore-Superintendent of the
Devonport Dockyard, was this morning hoisted on
board her Majesty's ship Agincourt, in Hamoaze, and
was duly saluted by the Impregnable and by the
batteries on Mount Wise.
In the Sound—The Hermes steamer, Commander
Fishbourne, and the Dart brigantine, Second-Master-
Commander M'Clure, which arrived from Ports-
mouth on Thursday, bound to the Cape of Good
hope; the Stromboli 'steam-frigate, Commander
Lord A. I3eauclerk, from a cruise in the Channel ;
and the Gladiator steam-ship, Captain John Adams,
bound with the mails to Madeira and the coast of
Africa. She waits the repairs of her tender, the
Jackal steamer, which will not probably be com-
pleted at the dockyard before Thursday.
Wind, N.W. 3 variable.

THE NEW NAVAL NOVELIST.—The author of the
new tale of the ser, " The Petrel," bids fair to take rank
as t'i first of his class. "We cannot but consider,"
says the Morning Past, "that the reading public are
very much indebted to Mr.
Colburn introduce
for their introdu
tion to a writer who, by Lis skill in depicting life on the
ocean, will, we doubt not, supply the place in nautical
literature which has become vacant by the death of the
lamented Captain Marryat.. This author's life of the
ship is equally dashing, forcible, and free. True, in
these volumes there are errors of style and general ar-
rangement, but for a first offering we know of few others
of ttie class to which it belongs, which in powerful de-
scription and refined humour could compete with it.
The author writes like a regular salt.' Sea life has
been with him no harbour haunting, steam-running ser-
vice. He tells of iron-bound shores, of coral islands,
and of ocean caves, as a true monster of the deep. The
scene of his work is highly novel and interesting. In-
deed the whole cruize of the Petrel is in itself a narra-
tive of vivid interest, the descriptions having a reality
that makes it appear that we are rather reading of some
true voy age than a romance. The author of The
Petrel' iv, we believe, Admiral
Fisher, who commanded
at the blockade of Alexandria in 1840."

Sift JOHN FRANKLIN.—We learn that Mr. Grinnel,
one of the merchant shipowners of New York, and for-
merly a Member of Congress, has augment ~d his former
subscription of 5,000 dollars towards the fitting out of
an expedition prcceed in search of Sir John Frank-
lin's party, to the princely donation of 15,000 dollars. It
is intended that two small vessels of 160 and of 60 tons

respectively shall proceed to Barrow's Straits in May
next; and it is calculated that the coat of such an expe-
dition will not be more than 25,000 dollars.

SAVINGS' BANK DEYAULTER.—ThO investigation
into the affairs of the Aylesbury :Savings' Bank has just
been completed. The amount of defalcations by Stratton
has been summed up, and has reached the sum of 1,068/.
The secretary of the bank (Mr. James) has, we are in-
formed, paid into the hands of the treasurer 500/., to
meet any el4itns that may ultimately fall upon him.
NEW GREEN PEAL.--A small parcel of this early
luxury has bean ieepii-ed by Messrs. Keeling and Hunt,
by the Pacha steamer, from Lisbon, bearing as fresh an
appia,:anco as if grown in England.
