NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

SIR WILLIAM PARKER'S FLEET.--We have letters
from the squadron dated Port Mahon, Minorca, Oct.
10, where the ships were in quarantine. When they
received pratique they were to proceed on a cruise to
Sardinia, Sicily, and the coast of Italy. There is no
mention of any sickness in the fleet. The Admiral
had his family on board the flagship Queen, 110, and
it was said he intended giving a bail before he left the
Wand. The Scourge steam-sloop, Commander Lord
F. Kerr, was just leaving for Malta, and expected
back with a mail for the fleet.

THE CHOLERA AND THE BELLEROPHON:—Letteri
from the Bellerophon, 78, Captain Baynes, C. 13.,
state that she was to leave Gibraltar on the 10th for
Devonport. She had had 86 cases of cholera on board
since she left Malta, nine of which proved fatal.
Among the number of victims was the master, Mr. G.
C. Dowers (1833). At our last dates the cholera had
entirely left the ship, and she was quite healthy.

Smithett, arrived at Devonport on Tuesday after-
noon, from Holyhead, and went into harbour.

was to have sailed yesterday, but, in consequence of
the barometer falling very much, and the unsettled
state of the weather, she will not go until to-day. She
has 450 tons of coal on board, 450 tons of provisions,
and an immense number of packages for the officers
of the African squadron.
