NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
The Board of Admiralty having concluded their
inspection at Queenstown, left that port in their
steam-yacht, Black Eagle, Master-Commander Cook,
at five A.M , on Sunday. Their Lordships arrived at
Milford, and inspected the dockyard and Admiralty
establishment there on the 16th, and yesterday
morning proceeded to Holyhead to visit the packet
station, whence they were expected to return to town
last night by railway.
Prince Ernest of Leiningen joined the Fox frigate,
Captain Lambert, at Spithead, on Saturday last, as
a cadet. He formerly belonged to the Arrogant,
which ship he left at Bordeaux a short time back.
There is a rumour that the Fox will go back into
Portsmouth Harbour to have Mr. Grant's cooking
and distilling galley fitted on board. As the ship
stows but a short quantity of water (we believe only
95 tons), this galley would be most serviceable, es-
specially as she is going on the East India station,
where the water procured is often of bad and unwhole-
some quality.
Admiralty orders are at Devonport for the Belle-
rophon, 78, Captain Baynes, C 8., on her arrival at
that port from the Mediterranean, to be paid off " all
standing." None of her stores are to be returned to
the dockyard, and she is to be immediately re-corn-
mission‘d as an advanced ship, with a crew of 300
officers and men.

Apollo troop-ship, Commander Rawstorne, is re-
ported ready to proceed to Spithead to-day. She
takes artillery to Barbadoes and Jamaica, and returns
to Woolwich with the reliefs.

Buzzard steam-sloop will not be completed at
Woolwich until the latter part of next month.
Elfin royal yacht tender, Master-Commander
Balliston, is having her defects made good. She will
not be out of the engineer's hands before the 3d
October.

Firefly steam-vessel, Commander Seymour, will
leave Woplwich, for Greenhithe and Devonport, on
the 25th inst., and will be ready to sail for the coast
of Africa on the Ist prox.
Geyser, 6, steam-sloop, is oriered to have her ar-
mament to be ready at Woolwich, but not to be em-
barked at present.
Hercules store-ship, Master-Commander Fulton,
was towed out of Gibraltar, August 25, by the Janus
steam•sloop, for England. She certainly ought to
have made her appearance somewhere in the English
Channel before now-23 days from Gibraltar.
Penelope steam-frigate is reported to be taken out
of dock at Portsmouth on the 19th.

Retribution, 22, steam-frigate, Captain Warden, is
reported to be this day ready at Portsmouth to pro-
ceed to Spithead. She looks remarkably well now,
with her 400• horse engines and heavier armament.
Her engines, we understand, weigh between 12 and
13 cwt. per horse power.
Sanspareil screw line-of-battle ship, ordered to be
launched at Devonport next month, is not to go off
the stocks at that time, consequently the hands that
had been working upon her have been taken off.
Sinbad lighter, Follett master, has' arrived at
Devonport, with stores from IVoolwich and Ports-
mouth.

Teazer screw-schooner, Lieut.-Commander Selwyn,
sailed from Queenstown on Sunday at 10 A.M., for
Woolwich, to be paid off.
Wasp screw-slcop will be ready for commission at
Woolwich, by the 30th instant.

THE MEDITERRANEAN.
Our correspondent, in his last letter from Malta,
announced the arrival at that port of Vice Admiral
Sir William Parker, Bart., G.C.8., the Commander-
in-Chief, in the Firebrand steam-frigate, Captain T.
0. Knox, leaving the fleet under the temporary com-
mand of Captain the lion. R. S. Dundas, C. 8., of
the Powerful ; and that the ship 3 were to come into
Malta harbour by twos for water. After the depar-
ture of the Superb, 80, Captain Purcell, and the
Powerful, 84, Captain Dundas, on the 2d instant,
the Caledonia, 120, Captain Carter, and Ganges, 84,
