NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PLYMUUEIf, DEC. 11.—Ifie Majety's ship Asia, SO

ice Ad►niral Sir P. Malcol►n, was oft Candia ou the I

November, having left Nay.trin on the Ilth October, and
reached Poros on the 11th. At this place (Poros), they
•feuud the English, Russisn, and French Arnbawadors—
a delightful spot for proceeding in their negociations.
The Greeks seemed running about ocelsing something
new (aa of old), playing the idler completely. They ap-
peared a fine race of men, but the women have nothing to
boast of.

We *learn; "Ida Fahnoath, that the Britomart, Com-
mander R. ll.4linners, was all well in Gibraltar Bay
on the 3d Dec. The Fever was diminishing.
Commander Sandilands has joined the Comet, 18.
Lieut. H. F. Peaks, (1821) is appointed to the Comet.
Lieut. J. S. Forman is appointed to the Champion, at
Portsmouth, fitting for foreign seryiee.
The WelleAley, 74, was all well at Navarin on tlse 4th
November.

The. Nightingale schooner, Lieut. Wood, returned from
Fahnouth,.on Thursday.
The Meteor, steam-vessel, Lieut. NV. H. Symons, ar-
rived here from the river, on Saturday night, having left
Deptford:on the 30th ult. and having towed down Channel
a ship freighted with provisions for Gibraltarwhich she
pirted from off this port.
_ _

The Bramble, cutter, 10, Lieutenant Haswell, arrived
here late on Sunday evening, in quarantine"; from Gib-
raltar, which place she left on the 28th ult., calling at
Tangier on the 29th. Things were happily mending at
the former- place, the deaths on the 28th of November,
having been only five, and the admissions to the Hospital
only 17. We learn also that the total number of cases
during the whole period up to the day mentioned was
6688, and the deaths 1537, according. to official reports.
Dr. Ilrown, who went out in the Royalist, was seized
With fever the day the Bramble left. The Tyrian packet
arrived that day, having on board Dr. Prince, to report
on the cause and progress of the disease. Private ac-
counts state the number. of deaths as much exceeding the
official statement, and add that the loss has been 600
soldiers, 14 officers, 2240 of the inhabitants, including
nine Medical men, and 14. priests.
The Bramble also In:ings an account that the Consul,
Mr. DoUglae, at Tangier, had okained leave to embark in
the Meteor (which vessel and the Orestes were still
cruising off the place), and intended doing so,• but was in
doubt whether the permission would not be retracted when
he attempted to avail himself of it. •

The l'homas Ritchie, transport,. with provisions bound
to Gibraltar, lately in tow of the Meteor, steam vessel, put
into Plymouth on Sunday night.
His Majesty's Ketch Vigilant, 10, Lieut. C. Jones, ar-
rived on Saturday, from the Coast of Africa, having left
the Island of Ascension on the 23d of Oct. It appears
this vessel, whieh sailed froin England with dispatches.ou the
25th of June last, reached Sierra Leone on'the 29111' of
July. While there Colonel Lumley died of.:fever. After
a few days the Vigilant moved down the coast, and ar-
rived'at Cape Coast on the 19th of July, having on her
way past. two armed schooners under Spanish colours, em-
ployed no. doubt, on Slave speculations. The Sybille,
Commodore Collior, was at Accra, where Lieut. Jones
found her on the 28th of August, and started in company
with bins the same day; they separated all well, on thy 241
of Sept ember. Having received 'Lieut. Baker and other

_ .
invalids, the Vigilant then proceeded to Fernando Po, and
on the 6th found Capt. Owen and the patty there all well,
and took her depatture thence on the 13th, taking on
board more invalids, tome speeitnens of wood, and other
things for the different naturalists' societies in England.--
The ketch weighed on the 13th of Sept., and ncaived on
board Lieut. Bond, of the North Star, and went to.
Prince's Island, found there Lt. Watson, in the Clinker all
well, thence on the 22d Sept. to the Island of Anna-
bona, and Ascension; where his Majesty's sloop Medina,
Commander Suckling arrived on the 19th Sept. three dap
befinv. the Vigilant ; with Capt.' Bite and Payne of the
Royal Marines.

The Vigilunt brings about 4,0001. worth of gold dust.

LONDON ADJOURNED SESSIONS.--THE
CoroutAL COFFEE-HOUSE. Deacon, the Proprietor
of the Colonial Hotel, at the ()tarter of Fleet•market, applied
yesterday for a license, which, however, was refused, but
With an implied assent from Aldermen Ansley and Key that
it should be granted out of Sessions.
On Saturday night this vity was visited by a
dreadful storm, which extended along the coast and
throughout the country to a considerable extent. 011
Sunday morning the weather became comparatively calm,
but early in the evening the storm came on with redoubled
violence, accompanied by heavy rain, thunder, and
lightning. It is now our melancholy- duty to record the
following dreadful effects of this storm Sunday
evening about eight.o'cloch, a light was been off Dunmore,
but all anxiety at once subsided, conjecture having imme-
diately represented it as a steam-packet making for Pas-
sage, not wishing to lie that night at Dunmore, in masa.,
titmice of the very heavy sea. Early, however, • yeater-
day morning, a schooner was seen lyiprs uu the rocks near
Dunmore, about half way betwern eraden Head and Cra-
den Bay. This, no, doubt, was the vessel which exhibited
the light the prevrous evening. Up to a late hour yester-
tidy, every stfort to board her proved ineffectual, in conse-
quence of the boisterous state of the weather ; her nom,.
however, was ascertained to be the I;:nfcrei2c, whence,
or where bound to, or what her cargo c01).9)44 of, is not

The election ends the Itith inst.

BATTUR EXTRAORDINARY !—On Toes •
day last six young men went up for public examination iu
the schoo's• of Oxford, and only one obtained a testamur
from the examiners; a slaughter this without precedent in
the annals of the Univereity.—Berhs Chronicle. '

An intelligent attorney has calculated, that
the Puisne Barons of the Exchequer are only empl,iyed
240 hours, or 30 days, calculating eight hours per day, at
Westminster; the Puisne Judged of the Common Pleas
820 hours, or 40 days, during .the entire 365 days of the
year; and the Alaster of the Rolls ahaut the same time.
Certainly the business ought to be divided. We want no
additional Judges in the Common Law ; but in Chancery
