NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. I.—Yesterday morning the Earl
of Haddington left the Admiralty-house, and proceeded
to the Royal Naval College, to hold his adjourned levee,
when the-following officers, whose names were on the
list yesterday, were received :
Captains—Strong and P. J. Douglas.
Commanders—Haynes, W. M. N. Douglas, Roche,
C. A. Johnston, and T. H. Mason.
Lieutenants—llon. T. A. Pakenham and W. Welsh.
Royal Marines—Colonel—M`Cullum.
Major—Moore.
Captain—Calamy.
On the return of their Lordships from the Coiling-
wood (after dining on board with Sir G. Seymour) to the
dockyard on Friday evening, at about ten o'clock, some
blue lights, the invention of Captain Stevens, were
lighted opposite the Admiralty-house, which gave great
satisfaction to all who witnessed the brilliant illumina-
tion. Their Lordships expressed themselves much
pleased with them. They burned eight minutes. Yes-
terday morning, whilst the Earl of Haddingtou held his
levee, the Hon. 11. 'F. L. Corry, and the Hon. Sidney
Herbert, First Secretary to the Board, proceeded round
the dockyard for a general view, utter which they em-
barked in the Fanny, the yacht of the Commander-in-
Chief, Sir C. Rowley, and proceeded westward. Sir G.
Cockburn took his departure by the half-past ten
o'clock train yesterday morning. After the levee the
Earl of Haddington went out for a short cruise in the
Black Eagle, for the benefit of his health, and dined in the
evening with Lord Ashburton, at Anglesea. This even-
ing, we believe, his Lordship will dine with the Right
Hon. J. W. Croker, and return to town in time to attend
the Cabinet Council, summoned for one o'clock.
There are no orders issued for commissioning any ships
at this port. Many are being masted, and otherwise ad-
vanced in a forward state ; but this, we believe, is merely
to keep employed the newly entered riggers.
The Collingwood, 80, Captain Smart, will, it is re-
ported, be detained at Spithead for the inspection of her
Maj es ty.
The Penelope, 22, steam-frigate, Commodore Jones,
arrived at Ascension on the sth July, from St. Helena,
whither she had towed the Tortoise store and guardship
for a supply of water. The Tortoise was expected to
arrive two days after the Penelope, which was expecting
and awaiting the arrival of the Ferret sloop, 6, Com-
mander J. Oake, when she would proceed to Prince's
Island for a further supply of water.
The Wasp, 16, Commander S. 11. Usher, arrived at
Ascension, from Bermuda, on the 2d July. When our
letters left she was undergoing refit prior to cruising on
the coast.
The Growler, 6, steam-sloop, Commander, C. Buckle,
which left Rio on the 13th June, arrived at Ascension
on the 4th of July, to assist in the suppression of the
slave trade. Oa the same day (4th of July) the Star, 6,
Commander R. J. W. Dunlop, arrived at Ascension to
undergo refit prior to assisting in the suppression of the
slave trade on the south coast. Her officers and crew
had suffered much from fever.
The Cornwallis, 72, Captain Richards, flag of Vice-
Admiral Sir W. Parker, G.C.8., is daily looked for at
Spithead, from the East Indies, to be paid off.
The Emerald returned from cruising off the Sussex
coast on Friday.

The royal yacht, Captain Lord A. Fitzclarence, is in
every respect ready for the reception of her Majesty.
In Harbour—The Victory, Victoria and Albert, Queen,
Excellent, Nautilus, Raven, and steam vessels Black
Eagle, Fearless, Echo, and Comet.
In Dock—Vindictive, Prince Regent, Scourge, Athol,
and Dwarf steamer.

At Spithead—The Collingwood.
DEVONPORT, AUG. 30.—The Clio, 16, Commander
Fitzjames, has arrived in the Sound from the East In-
dies to be paid off. She has been upwards of five years
in commission, during NI hich time she has had three
commanders. . _ _

The Semiramis, an old 44, built about forty years, is
ordered to be broken up at this dockyard.
The Vanguard, 80, advance-ship, sister to the Coiling-
wood, is masted and ready for commission.
The Royal Adelaide, 104, advance-ship, is alongside
the jetty for muting, after having her copper examined
and cleaned. _

The San Josef, 110, Captain IL M. Dickson, flag of
Rear• Admiral Sir Samuel Pym, K.C.8., was paid wages
to six months on Tuesday.

The Superb, 80, was masted yesterday, and is ready
for commission.

The Amethyst, 26.—An extra number of hands have
been put upon this vessel to expedite her launching, her
slip being wanted on which to lay down the timbers of
the Avenger, first class steam-frigate.
The Stromboli, steam sloop, Commander the Hon. E.
Plunkett, is ordered to the Mediterranean station.
Mr. Richard Way, leader of shipwrights, is appointed
inspector, vice Cooper, deceased ; and Mr. John Walker,
shipwright, to be leader, vice Way, promoted.
An order has been received to enter 15 hired ship-
wrights at this yard, for service at Deptford ; 20s. each
man will be allowed for travelling expenses.
Since the order has arrived to enter men for " general
service" very few have offered. Tho genuine " Jack "
will not enter for general service as long as he can help
it. He prefers to choose his own craft and his own cap-
tain ; and this he will do, unless driven to the alterna-
tive by sheer necessity.
Mr. P. C. Beattie, engineer of this port, is appointed
to the Tortoise store-ship at Ascension, to superintend
the repair of her Majesty's steam-vessels on the coast of
Africa.

In Harbour—San Josef, Confiance, and Stromboli.
In the Sound—St. Vincent, flag-ship pro tem.
SHEERNESS, Aua. 30.—The Vernon, 50, is being
brought forward for commission.
The Achille, 76, was masted on Wednesday, and the
Asia, 84, was taken into the basin for the same purpose
yesterday. The Waterloo, 120, the Monarch, 84, and
the London, 92, are also to be masted.
The Vulture steam sloop, is still in the basin. She
has been ready for the pendant some time.
The Alarm frigate, 26, will be pushed forward for
launching this year.
The Amazon, razee, 24, is ready for the pendant in
the basin.

Several officers of long standing, and high on the
list in the service, are already named as likely to suc-
ceed to the command of the ordinary and superinten-
dence of the dockyard at this port, vacant by the sud-
den death of Captain Peter Fisher, but we decline
giving their names, from motives that they cannot but
appreciate.

The Ocean, 80.—Mr. Joseph Eeefl, gunner of this
ship, died suddenly in an apoplectic fit on Sunday last.
In Harbour—The Ocean, flag ship pro tern., and Afri-
Caine steamer.

In the Basin—The Vulture, the Asia, the Crocodile,
and the Amazon.
In Dock—The Vernon, the Monarch, the Herald, and
the Beagle.

COLT'S BATTERY and WARNER'S
SHELL.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—ln writing my forthcoming volume, con-
taining the "Life and History of President Har-
rison," I have had occasion to allude to the treaty of
Washington, wherein the free navigation of the St.
John's river is given to the United States. I endea-
vour to prove that the English possess the advantage
in the treaty, for they would blockade the mouth of
the River in time of war, and capture all the vessels
of the enemy. I then wrote this sentence :—" Nor
could the Americans prevent it by a defence of the
mouth of the river, by a submarine battery of tor-
pedoes—for the entrance of the river is from British
waters, and consequently under the absolute control
cf the English."
Upon writing the above, I appended this note, viz. :
—" Having made allusion to a submarine battery of
torpedoes, for river defence, I take this occasion to
state, that the first idea of employing the same species
of defence for harbours, port-channels, and anchor-
ages, as far as I know, originated with myself, while
on a visit in Connecticut, United States."
The idea arose as follows, viz. :—I visited in 1832
the Indian graves and mounds in furtherance of my
" History of Ancient America ;" and near the ruins
of Fort Griswald, at the month of the River Thames
(Connecticut), the position was pointed out to me of
the British fleet, while blockading the harbour of New
London, and consequently keeping Commodore De-
catur with his few vessels from leaving the river.
Decatur was resolved to break through his naval im-
prisonment, and as he could not do it by an equal
force to oppose the British fleet, he had recourse to
the stratagem of torpedoes, which were so arranged as
to float down the river by the return tide ; and having
large arms attached, would embrace, as it were, any
object within its reach, and by its contact and contu-
sion, would ignite the powder, and blow to atoms the
vessel so approached. This stratagem had its effect,
and Decatur made his escape, the British men-of-
war having left the harbour's mouth, to avoid the ter-
rible agency employed by the American Commodore.
When this circumstance was related to me in 1832,
I instantly conceived the defence of harbours, port-
channels, and rivers, and simply by reversing the
order of the arrangement, viz., the torpedoes to be.
stationary, and the men of war to float onwards, as
the latter must do to enter rivers or harbours. And
in addition to gunpowder the more powerful chemicals
of modern invention should form the torpedoes ; and
having these batteries sunk in the channel of entrance,
and by the galvanic wires from any distance, and at
any time, ignite the submarine combustibles. Thus,
from the hundreds of torpedoes that could be sunk,
and in every direction, and invisible to an enemy, no
naval commander would be so insane as to hazard his
ship, and the hundred of human lives on board, by
even the attempt to cross such a rubicon ; for the ex-
ploding party at the galvanic wires, however distant,
yet within sight of the men of war, would watch the
locality of the vessels, and ignite those torpedoes only
that would be effective upon the different vessels as
they would be opposite certain lines or points of ob-
servation.

An anchorage could be defended in the same man-
ner ; for instance:—the Prince de Joinville com-
menced the bombardment of Tangiers with only five
and half feet of water beneath the keel of his ship.
Now, had submarine torpedoes been sunk in that an-
chorage, and ignited by the galvanic power, an in-
stant destruction of the gallant Admiral's ship would
have been the consequence ; but, even without tor-
pedoes being placed there, yet the belief that they
were there, the commander would not come within
bombarding distance. A safe result to a city would
obtain from even that belief by the invading naval
commander.

After I had written the above, and read it to a
friend, he called my attention to the Athenceum of
August 17, wherein allusion is made, and description
given, of Colt's Submarine Battery, as exhibited
in New York Harbour ; I beg to answer that account
by the following statement, viz. :--
In 1837, I visited Hartford, Connecticut, and was
introduced to Mr. Samuel Colt and friends. Mr.
Colt showed and explained to me his newly-invented
ten-chamber rifle, which hal been so successfully used
in Indian warfare, by causing almost instant treaties
of peace with the Leminole Aborigines. It was at
this time (1837), and as a return courtesy, that I un-
folded to Mr. Colt my own invention for the defence
of harbours, rivers, &c. He seemed much struck with
the idea, and especially in regard to the means of
ignition, and from any distance. This was in 1837.
I made my arrangement in 1832, five years pre-
viously. Upon my present visit to my native land in
1841, I mentioned it in London, in confidence, to
two scientic gentleman. In 1842, Mr. Colt made the
experiment in New York harbour, exactly as I un-
folded the manner to him. He was most successful,
and in the presence of naval commissioners and
Adjutant-General Jones blew a large ship to
atoms, and while floating into the harbour. So per-
fect was the destruction, that the harbour was not
clogged, but the fragments of the ship floated into the
port with the tide, as, also, the remains of the wooden
frame of the torpedo.

I do not charge Mr. Colt with any breach of confi-
dence; my secret was given in courtesy, and I re
joice in his prosperity. He might eventually from
his own brain have made that discovery which I thus
claim, in the most unqualified manner, to be my own.
In 1840, I received from a naval offi2er an account
of the destructive qualities of the Paixhan shell-shot
—that one was sufficient to sink a frigate. Within a
short period, I made a defence against the terrible
effects of that projectile, and also a defence against
injury to the masts of a ship in ac-
tion, either from round or chain-shot. This
I unfolded to a naval officer, in confidence, for
his opinion of the practicability of my defence. His
answer was in the affirmative—" That the vessel
would be saved." I have, therefore, taken the legal
proceedings to secure by letters patent my right to
the above defences.

Having, therefore, found means to defend a ship
against the Paixhan shell-shot, I have no hesitation in
declaring my belief that I can defend " the line-of-
battle ship" against the destructive effects of Captain
Warner's " projectile," be it; " five," or only one
mile off. This counter-challenge is given in the
belief that his destructive missile is an horizontal
projectile. If the projectile, and the power of its
propulsion, are worth 300,0001., the prevention of the
effects of the former surely is worth twice as much.
As an Englishman, however, I should be happy to
know that I could prevent the loss of human life, and
should feel honoured (should the occasion call. it
forth) in being permitted to present gratuitously to
my country the secret of my defence.—l have the
honour to be, Sir, yours truly,
GEORGE JONES.

DICTIONAIRE NATIONAL FRANCAIS.—The num-
bers which have already issued of this critical dictionary
of the French language are sufficient to found upon them
the judgment that, when completed, it will form not only
a most valuable work, as comprising all the new and
acknowledged words lately introduced into the French
tongue, but:a repertory of the critical and analytical notes
of all the other most esteemed dictionaries. M.Bescherelle,
Aine, the author, has evidently bestowed on it great
labour and attention, as well as talent ; and his Majesty
the King of the French never showed greater jugdment
than when he took this great national literary work
under hi immediate patronage. Tice publishers, M
Simon, Rue des .I?,,sses do Temple A Paris, and Messrs.
L. and A. Ber and Co., of Blenheim-street, in this city,
have every reason to be satisfied with the success of this
undertaking.

AGRICULTURE.
PRICES AT HOME AND ABROAD.
(From the League.)
We observe that Mr. Baker, of Essex, and the
other leaders of the protectionist party, are claiming
the support of the farmers on a novel ground, "It
is true," say they, " that we cannot guarantee you
(the tenant-farmers) 565. a quarter fur your corn;
true that the price for Huntingdonshire averaged
only 435. 6d. a quarter last week, in spite of the forty
editions of Mr. Game Day's pamphlet, whilst Essex,
Kent, and Oxfordshire, fared but little better ; all
this is true, but what would the prices have sunk to
had there been no corn-law ? Are not the foreigners
actually paying the 18s. duty, and still competing
with the English grower ?" This is the argument'
which is now industriously put forth by the farmers'
friends, and which we call upon the free traders
everywhere to prepare themselves to answer.
It is true that a certain portion of the foreign corn
in bond has been entered for consumption at a dot!
of 18s., and even 19s. per quarter. It is equally true
that many thousands of quarters were in one year
taken out of bond and thrown into the river. In
both cases the object was the same; to escape the
risk of greater loss from keeping the -wheat in the
bonded warehouse without the prospect of a sale'
And it would be just as fair to assert that it is
profitable for the foreigner to send his corn here to
be cast into the Thames, because such a transaction
has occurred, as to allege that wheat can be sot
from abroad to pay 18s. a quarter duty, because cer-
tain individuals liberated their grain from bond St
that rate last week. It is a well-known fact that the •
foreign corn so imported has brought heavy losses
upon its owners. It is notorious that it is not Po'
fitable to bring wheat from abroad to pay 18s. duty.
If any man be bold enough to assert the contrary, let,
him try the experiment.
The point to which we would direct the attention
of the farmers at the present moment is this: there
are two descriptions of prices for foreign corn, the,
real and the nominal price. The real price is that
at which the foreigners supply us when we are et"
lowed by our law to buy from them for our consume'
tion. When corn is lying in bond, with our sliding
scale up at a prohibitive point, and no prospect of A
market, then the prices are merely nominal. The
question frequently asked,. under such circumstances*
by the unfortunate holder is, " how much -had
better consent to lose, to escape the risk of still
heavier sacrifices ?"

It is undoubtedly of importance to the farmer to
ascertain what the real price of foreign wheat would
be under a free trade. It is of no consequence to
him what the nominal price now is, because corn
never enters regularly, and in large quantities, into
consumption at the nominal price. We are able,
liy referring to the Parliamentary returns of the
prices of wheat at Dantzic and in England, during $
period of continuous importation for consumption to
this country, to form a fair estimate of the price at
which foreign corn can be regularly purchased.
In the return ordered by the House of Commons,
3d May, 1841, we are furnished with the weekly
prices of wheat at Dantzic, and in England, for a
series of years, embracing periods of high and IoW
prices. We will first' give the prices during f°lll*
cheap years, when the duty, under the old law, Os
prohibitory :-
Price per Imp. qr. English Gazette

1835, Ist week in Jan. 19s. Od. to 295. Od. 395.2,A
1836, - -17 s. 10d. to 2!-'s 11d. 355. ‘,-;
1837, - - 275. 4d. to 40s. Od. 573. ~2,7
1838, - -20 s. Ild. to 275. 3d. 503. O"'
During the above period the duty ranged from 2°s'
to 50s. a quarter, and precluded any regular or pr°-
fitable importation for consumption. Whatever put.
chases were made were speculative, for the parPl
of storing up with the view to a deficient harvest, 513
with the risk of loss for warehousing and other er.
penses.
It will be seen that, in the first week of January
1838, the price of wheat at Dantzic ranged from 2'„'
11d. to 275. 3d.; but as the English Gazette price 01
the same time was 50s. 9d., and the duty on foreign
corn 355. a quarter, the price at Dantzic was merely
nominal, so far as England was concerned. But et
now come to a period of real prices. In the summer
r
of this same year, 1838, alarm began to be felt for
the English harvest. The consequence was that
prices rose here, and the following extract from the
same Parliamentary return will show how instantni:
neously the Dantzic market felt the effects of an of
fective demand from England :-

In the interval between January and December
1838, the prices of wheat in Dantzic was more tliani
doubled, in consequence of the demand for autos„
consumption in England. In the three years, dari:nP,
which this demand continued, the following quail%
ties of wheat were imported from Prussia, of Whic
Dantzic is the principal port :-

The same Parliamentary return from which 701,
have already quoted, gives the prices per quarter
fr•
every week during the whole of this period. ,'Of
Baker and the other "farmers' friends" are fon°
rt
asserting that they could, once upon a time, itort)da
foreign wheat at 255. a quarter, forgetting t° the
that it would have been a speculation for
warehouse, with a chance of having to thrnts,
the purchase, or so much of it as escaped the Ito
into the river, to avoid the payment of duty. -`ri,t
we recommend Mr. Baker and his monopo',
patron, Lord Ashburton, who, to his shame, has c°o nf
descended to like fallacies, to study the prices ti,
foreign wheat during the above three years of CO7O
nuous demand for consumption in England, and, . of
will find that, during all that period, the pllethe
wheat at Dantzic averafred more than 40s, ani,`:,,e
price at which it sold in°England alongside. the J-1"'
lish grain was upwards of 60s.
With the present abundant harvest in England, tione,cl
the duty fixed at 20s. fur perhaps a year to c 0• al
the prices of Wheat at Dantzic will become nc'intor,
again, and may sink probably to 20s. or 255. a (I,lhig
ter. But we hope the farmers, who will be Fe
Pet
their wheat at 405., and paying rents at 565., will
suffer Mr. Baker to divert them from the true seet be
by his solemn predictions of what the price migb
without a corn-law.
