...without demand. Of Rum about 100 punehs. have
been sold at former rates. _ .

IiAYMARIicET THEATRE.—A now " \Tau-
'tville," in one art, translated (as usual) from the French,
144 entitled " The Milliners," was brought out on Satur-
-4Y night at this Theatre. The
plot is slight.and common-
ha
h,te, turning fir the most part on the intrigues between a
ni'sband, wife, and a pair of lovers, at cone of these abodes
ti; fashion end frivolity. The audience were merciful, so
abtipiece war beard to an end. Mrs. Hemnr (ft rpruark-
,i,, pretty young woman) played one of the Milliners

„ IATATHEWS and YATES have become joint-
;)l'tietors of the Adelphi Theatre, Mr. TEKLY having

Th •
„ Adelphi Theatre, hitherto one of the most profitable
theatrical speculations in London, will become doubly at-
ractiv by the united. and somewhat congenial talents of
`Alas and MAratews. As an intellectual mimic and a
(Zilic actor, in peculiar and popular department of tl:e

JOSEPH G ItIMALDr y SEN.—The folio sing

NAVAL INTELLMENCE.

Potersmourti„lusr 28.---We have accounts
from Malta to the 4th inst. The following is an
extract of a letter we have received:—

"We have here at present the Asia (flag);
Ocean, Commodore Campbell; Revenge, Captain
N. Thompson; Blonde, Captain Lyons; Infernal,
Captain, Gilbert; Erebus, Captain Haye; Philomel,
Hon. Captain Keith; besides the Raleigh, Captain
J. B. Dundas; Musquito, Captain G. B. Martin,
C.B. ; Brisk, Captain Thomas Smith ; Pelorus,
Captain Richards ' • Etna, Captain Hoste ; and Hind
cutter, Lieutenant Robb, in quarantine. The Blonde,
Musquite, and Raleigh are refitting; the Blonde
having been obliged to
_strip on accoont of the de-
fective state of her lower rigging The Brisk will
sail shortly to join Commodore Sir T% Staities, at
Carabusa ; the Erebus to-morrow, with convoy for
Smyrna; the Pelorus also to-tnorrow, to-rejoin her
station at Alexandria; and it is said the Revenge
and Etna in a few days, to relie‘e the Warspite on
the coast of the Morea. The Philomel is destined
to reinforce the Archipelago squadron, first taking
some despatches to Marseilles ; the Asia in a day te.-
two will go to Leghorn, and the Blortde to the coast
of Egypt. The Glasgow has come in to-day with
the officers and crew dl' the Parthian, wrecked on
the coast of Egypt on the 16th of May, and will
proceed off Navarin with them, where the Court-
martial will be held. The great part of the
stores and things were saved from the Par-
thian, whose crew were on shore encamped
seven days, and were afforded all possible protection
by the Pacha of Egypt, who sent down a guard to
protect them, and otherwise assisted them in the
most friendly manner. It is strongly reported that
Ibrahim Pacha has made a proposition to the Allied
Admirals, to be allowed to return to Egypt with the
forces under his command, but this intelligence is
doubtful. The Turkish Government persevere in
their endeavours to afford the means to Ibrahim of
keeping his footing in the Morea, and it appears to
be the object of the Allied Admirals to prevent them.
A Turkish corvette has been detained by Count
Heiden, going into Navarin with supplies, and two
others got in on the 20th, May, while the Admiral
was up there. The Talbot and Philomel ehased
them, but they got in by dint of
.superier sailing, al-
though the Talbot was so near as to fire at them.
The Raleigh arrived from Carabusa on the 24th,
convoying the Ann and Amelia transport, with re-
covered stores from the wreck of the Cambrian, and
property captured at Carablisa, by Sir Thomas
Staines's squadron. Sir E. Codrington went in the
Ocean on the 12th of May to Coron, in consequence
of an insurrection of the Albanians, who revolted
because they could not get paid; however, a cor-
vette from Alexandria succeeded in getting in with
money; Ibrahim paid the discontented soldiers, and
they returned to. their duty, after having possessed
themselves of Coron, and killed (it is said) 1,500
Turks. This happened before Sir E. Codrington
arrived on the spot, when, finding all quiet, he re-
turned to Malta, without having any communica-
tion.—The Warspite, 74, Captain Parker, GB: ;
Rattlesnake, 28, llon. Captain 0. Bridgman; and
Wolf, 18, Commander G. Hayes, are cruising off
Corfu. The Iris, 50, Commodore Sir Thomas
Staines, K.C.8.; Dryad, 42, Hon. Captain G. A.
Crofton ; Talbot, 'lB, Captain Hon. F. Spencer,
C. 8.; Rifleman, 18, Commander Michell ; Came-
lion, 10, Commander Wyvill; Zebra, 18, Com-
mander 13. Popham ; and Alacrity, 10, Commander
Jos. Nias, are in the Archipelago. The Dartmouth,
42, Captain Sir T. Fellowes, C. 8.; Jasper, 10,
Commander L. C. Rooke ; and Weazle, 10, Com-
mander Wesley, at Alexandria._ The Mastiff, Com-
mander Copeland, is surveying the Gulf of Egina ;
the Wasp, 18, Capt. Dickenson, C. 8., is daily ex-
pected from Tunis ; the Pelican, 18, Commander
W. A. B. Hamilton, has sailed for Naples; and the
Racer (tender), with despatches to the coast of
Italy."

The Wellesley, 71, Captain F. Maitland, C.B.
with the flag of Vice-Admiral Sir Pulteney Mal-
cohn, K.C.8., sailed on Thursday for the Mediter•
ranean. On starting, the wind being light, the
tide drifted her to the edge of the Dean Shoal, on
which she touched for a few minutes; the Carron
steam Vessel was accordingly got out, under the care
of Lieutenant Hutchins, and the crew of the Light-
ning, and towed her as far down Channel as St.
Alban's Head, when she left the Wellesley pro-
ceeding with a light fair breeze. The gallant officer,
Sir Edward Codrington, G.C.8., whom Sir Pul-
teney succeeds in the Mediterranean command, will
return in the Warspite, 74, Captain W. Parker.
His Majesty's ship Britannia, 120, Captain E.
•Hawker, at Plymouth, and Prince Regent, 120,
Honourable Captain Poillett, at Chatham, are un-
der orders to hold themselves in readiness to take
on board the corps of Royal Marine Artillery, at
this port, and proceed with them to sea. These or-
ders embrace two objects—one to try the respective
qualities of these *hips, which have never been to
sea, and to exercise the crews—the other to afford
the corps of Royal Marine Artillery practical expe-
rience in gunnery afloat, and to ascertain the full
utility of the round sterns. The Lightning steam
vessel will take one wing with the head-quarters,
on Wednesday next, to Chatham, and a transport
will take the remainder to Plymouth, on Thursday.
' It is expected the Melville, 74, Captain H. Hill,
will accompany these ships.
The Challenger, 28, Captain Fitzclarence, sailed
on Tuesday, for Halifax and Quebec; the Meteor
steamer, Lieutenant Hay, on the same day, for the
River, to have new boilers to her engine. On
Thursday, arrived the Echo steamer, from the River
—a new vessel; she is waiting in readiness to start
with despatches for Lisbon. Yesterday, sailed the
Arrow cutter, Lieut. Brooking, for the Westward.
The Russian eighty-gun ship, and the Provornoy
frigate, which recently returned from the 'Mediter-
ranean, having obtained through the Consulate the
supplies they needed, sailed on Thursday for the
Baltic. Captain Lazaroff, who commanded the line-
of-battle ship, and who was a midshipman in the
English service, has been promoted to the rank of
Rear-Admiral.
The Scylla, 19, Commander Hobson, came into
harbour on Monday, to be paid off. The Comman-
der-in-Chief, AdMiral the Hon. Sir Robert Stopford
exercised this vessel at her guns, whilst at Spithead,
and testified his highest approbation of the manlier
in which the crew had been practiced in firing at a
target. His Royal Highness the Lord High Admi-
ral, in mustering the Scylla on 'Wednesday, warmly
complimented Commander Hobson on the general
effective state.
The Royal Sovereign yacht, at Deptford, is fitting
for the conveyance of his Royal Highness the Lord
High Admiral to Plymouth, to which port his
Royal Highness, it is understood, will proceed in the
ensuing week. In consequence of the indisposition
of the Royal Sovereign's gallant and distinguished
Captain, Sir Wm. "(we, K.C.13., Captain the
Hon. Robert C. Spencer, the Lord High Admiral's
Private Secretary, will take the command pie
tempore.
The Druid frigate, and Grasshopper and Espiegie
sloops of war, were at Jamaica, on the 13th of May.
The Slaney, 20, had gone to Carthagena; the
Ferret, 10, to Santa Martha : and the Sheldrako to
Vera Cruz.
The Galatea frigate, and Medina and Procris
sloops of war, arrived at Lisbon on the 15th inst.
An order in Council for the future regulation of
the -Royal Naval College has been issued within
these few days, by which all the Students are to pay
an annual sum for their education, in proportion to
the rank and circumstances of their friends; the
number- is also to be increased from seventy to
eighty—one half are to consist of the sons of com-
missioned officers in the navy or army; the other
oiety of the sons of civilians, which class of stu-
dents,having no claim on the public service, are to
pay 125/. per annum ; the sons of Flag and General
80/. ; Captains in the nary, Colonels, and
Lieutenant-Colonels commanding corps, 70/. ; Com-
manders, arid all below that rank, and Regimental
Field Officers, 50/. ; sons of officers, of whatever

rank in either service, who have lost their fathers,
40/.; and the sons of officers, of whatever rank,
whose fathers have died in actual service, and whose
families have been left in pecuniary distress, 20/, per
annum.

The recent order for entering supernumerary sea-
men on board the flag ships, at the several ports,
with a view to expedite the manning of men-of-war,
we hope will be succeeded by instructions to retain
in the service such boys as have been brought up in
the Ordinary, who, after being transferred to serve
in active ships, are, with the remainder of the crews,
occasionally paid off, and sent adrift, in some in-
stances, perhaps, when they have been entered a
few weeks only. Boys at present edit only be re,-
ceived in the Navy through the Ordinary; and if
indeed the ships to which they may be sent were
to be paid off the following day to that on which
they go on board, in the Ordinary they cannot be
again received. We should bail with pleasure a
regulation to obviate this anomaly.
The Marquess of Hastings' Drake, nustet, has
this week embarked 178 male convicts for New
South Wales, from the convict ships in this harbour,
under the care of Mr. W. Roe, surgeon. She
takes also Colonel Allen, and family, of the 57th
I Regiment, with a few recruits for that regiment and
for the 63d, and will sail to-morrow or Monday.

It will be observed,: by an official notification, that
the Portsmouth Victualling Establishment is re.!
moved from this side of the water to Weevil. We
have sufficiently animadverted on the impolicy of
this measure, both as to its injury to the benefit of
the Naval service, and the enormous expense attend=
ing it. The transfer took place to-day. .
It has been feared that all future Custom-house
appointments would take place from the Army Half-
pay List, because a Major and a Captain were
lately under tuition at this Custom-house, to prepare
them for situations under that Board. As the ap-
poiptmeiits of these Gentlemen, however, occurred
before the assumption of office by his Grace of Wel-
lington, we trust the claims to promotion of the
junior and deserving Clerks of-that Department wig
be strictly considered.
