NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

RETURN TO PORTSMOUTH OF THE ROYAL
YACHT AND STROMBOLI STEAM-SLOOP.
' The Stromboli, 6, steam-sloop, Commander Lord A.
Beauclerk, arrived at Spithead yesterday at hair-past
one o'clock, and soon afterwards went into harbour.
She parted company with the royal yacht Victoria and
Albert off Cherbourg in the morning, at half past five
o'clock.

The royal yacht Victoria and Albert arrived at three
o'clock at Spithead, and went straight into harbour at
halt-past three. Lord Adolphus landed at the dockyard
to pay his respects to the Commander-in-Chief, Admiral
Sir Bladen Capel, and to land some dispatches from
Gibraltar and Lisbon.

The yacht went into Cherbourg at half-past five
o'clock yesterday morning. Captain Lord Fitzclarence
and his friends landed, called on the authorities of the
place, and left in the yacht again at half-past nine;
making the run from Cherbourg to Portsmouth in fire
and a half hours.

The Victoria and Albert was placed in quarantine
when she went into Bordeaux on Sunday week, and re-
mained two days. Sho then received pratique, and
anchored off the town, where she remained till Saturday.
She went into Brest and remained twenty-four hours,
and left that harbour on Tuesday morning, arriving at
Cherbourg yesterday morning.
The royal yacht was visited at Bordeaux and Brea t
by a vast number of the inhabitants, who were cour-
teously received on board by Lord Fitaelarence, Captain
Crispin, and the officers. We hear that the inhabitants
of Cherbourg were extremely disappointed at not having
an opportunity of seeing the British yacht, that they
might compare her with their former extolled royal
yacht the Gomer. During the few hours the Victoria
and Albert remained at Cherbourg a small number of
persons were received on board.
The yacht is reported to have behaved well through-
out, and her engines have performed most satisfactorily.
Altogether she has had a most delightful and gratifying
cruise; the only difficulty has been the procuring coals
at the French ports, and then only getting them at in-
tervals of time and in small quantities.
Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, Sir G. Wombvrel,
Bart, Sir Joseph Copley, and Colonel Tyre hitte have
returned in her. Prince Ernest of Leiningen, late a
midshipman in the Arrogant screw-frigate, who came
in the royal yacht from Lisbon to Bordeaux, left the
yacht at the last-named place to proceed to Germany
by land.

•
Lord Adolphus Fitzclarenee, on his return to Ports-
mouth, proceeded to Osborne to report his arrival and
the particulars of the interesting cruise to her Majesty.
THE MEDITERRANEAN FLEET.—The intelligence from
Malta to the 24th ult., announce that Sir William Par-
her was still at Maltat The fleet was not there, but
Sir William shifted his flag from the Queen, 110, on the
14th ult., to the Firebrand, 6, steam-frigate, Captain
Kr,ox, leaving the fleet cruising outside; the Firebrand
bringing in invalids from the reception-ships for treat-
ment at the hospital. The gallant commander-in-chief
was to rejoin his three-decked flag-ship in day or two.
By letters from the fleet we learn that about seventy
cases of cholera had appeared in the ships under the im
mediate command of Sir W. Parker; but the number
was daily diminishing. The total number of deaths had
not exceeded thirty. The flag-ship Queen, 110, Captain
Wise, had suffered most.

Mr. Stanhope G. Price has
,been appointed naval cadet
lo the Inflexible steam-sloop,.for the West Indies.
Desperate steam-frigate, at Sheerness, is ordered to
have a distilling galley for 200 men supplied to her from
Portsmouth.

Greenock iron screw steam-frigate, haring bad some
alteration made in her boilers, and taken in ballast to
immerse her six inches deeper, 12 feet 6 inches forward
and 15 feet 6 inches abaft, was taken out again round
the Eddystone on Tuesday, when she answered much
better. She is reported to have gone about very quickly,
and almost in her own length. Her speed is stated to be
aomewhat improved; but it should be borne in mind that
it was a most beautiful day, without any sea or wind.
Inflexible, 6, seam-sloop, Commander P. IL Dyke,
left Woolwich yesterday, at five P.M., fur Greenhithe,
Sheerness, Portsmouth, Davenport, and Jamaica. She
remains at Sheerness until the Alban steam-tender is
ready to proceed to Port Royal. The Inflexible is a
few hands short of her full complement of 160.
Trafalgar, 120, Captain the Hon. M. Stopford, was
commissioned at Sheerness on Tuesday, not on Saturday,
as stated. Commander Ewart has joined, and her ad-
vanced complement of 370, it is hoped, will soon be fur-
nished to her.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]--Headache, Nervousness, De-
bility, and Giddiness in the Head cured by Holloway's Pills.—
Mrs. Drinkwater, of Castle-street, Liverpool, had been in ill
health for a considerable time, suffering from severe headache,
nervousness, and a debilitated constitution, and frequently she
would be so suddenly seized with a giddiness in the -head that
her strength would fail her, and she would fall to the ground.
Every effort was tried to obtain relief by following prescrip-
tions of medical men, but without success. She then com-
menced taking Holloway's Pills, and this invaluable medicine,
soon strengthened the tone of the stomach, renovated the con-
stitution, and so effectually cured the headache, that she is now
enjoying the best of health.— Sold by all druggists, and at Pre-
fessur Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London!
