NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, JULY 7.—On Thursday the ship
Wellington passed this port, after short passages to
and from Madras. By her the following letter, re-
lative to the squadron in the East Indies, has been
received ;

" MADRAS, MARCH I.—The Java, 50, Captain '
J. Wilson, did not reach Trincomalee, from Eng-
land, until the 15th of January, she having been to
Penang, supposing the Admiral to be there, which
prolonged her passage five weeks. Admiral Gage
shifted his flag into her, from the Boadicea, on the
31st of that month; and he is expected to leave
Trincomalee to-day, for this port, having been at
the former place seven months. The Admiral will
remain here about three weeks, and then proceed to
Penang, Sincapore, and Malacca. We have ten
ships on the station, viz. Java, (flag), Tamar, Athol,
Rainbow, Success, (not yet joined) Fly, Hind,
Cyrene, Champion, and Pandora. The Tamar,
Athol, and Pandora, are in the Red Sea, having
been despatched thither to demand restitution of
some property which the pirates there have seized.
The Boadicea has left Trincomalee, for England :
the Tamar will proceed homeward in June or July.
The Rainbow and Fly are at New South Wales;
Hind, gone to Bombay, to be docked, being quite
rotten ; Cyrene and Champion, are expected here in
a day or two, from Trincomalee. The only, promo-
tions in the Squadron, since the Admiral joined,
have been two Lieutenants, from off the Admiralty
list. Mr. Spurling, Purser of the Hind, and Mr.
Dent, Admiralty Clerk, are the only recent deaths.
Every thing is now pretty quiet in India."
On Wednesday, the Badger, Captain Charles
Crowdy, arrived from the Cork station, and remains
the only ship at Spithead.—Sailed the Starling,
Lieutenant Pearl, for Cork. Remain in the har-
bour—Victory, Revenge, • Melville, Wellesley,

DARING BURGLARIES AT VAUXHALL.—
The neighbourhood of Vauxhall, particularly Howick-ter.
race, in the Vauxhall-road, has during the last week been
thrown into the greatest alarm, in consequence of the
nightly burglaries which have taken place in that quarter.
On Saturday morning about one o'clock, the dwelling.
house of Mr. Cantrell, No. 5, Howick-terrace, was forcibly
entered by some villains, who had placed a ladder against
the hack staircase-window, which they broke, and got into
tke house. It happened that Mrs. Cantrell's niece was
very unwell, and Mrs. Cantrell got up to visit her, when,
on opening her bed-room door, she saw two men ransack-
ing a chest of drawers which stood on the landing-place
of the stairs. This unexpected appearance alarmed the
villains, and they made a hasty retreat, leaving behind
them the booty which they had packed up. Mrs.
Cantrell was so terrified, that for some minutes she
could not speak from the fear she experienced ; when
an alarm was given, the villains had escaped ; they left
behind them a phosphorus box, chisels, a hat, and a
shoe. On Monday night, the dwelling-house of Mr.
Bushnell, at No. 1, in the saute terrace, was also broken
Open. The thieves were here more fortunate, fur then
ransacked the whole house, and carried off plate, wear.-
ing apparel, and various other articles to the amount
upwards of 301., without giving the slightest alarm. The
corner house in the same row, occupied by Mr. Howard, a
grocer, was also broken into on Wednesday night. The
thieves cut through the shutters with a centre-bit, packet:
up all the tea in the shop, ransacked various parts of the
house, and made their escape with about 25/. worth o
property. It is supposed the thieves were alarmed, a•
several articles were left behind which had been packc.: up.
In the course of the week, the dwelling-house of Mr.
Gudges, at No. 3, in the same row, was also attempted, be'
they were alarmed before they completed their entry, and
were frustrated in their plunder. At the back of the above
terrace is a large waste-field, full of ditches and hedges.
which is nightly the resort of some of the most desperatl
characters in Westminster. They may be found there ever)
evening, in numbers of 40 and 50, under the pretence o•
playing at various games, when, as soon as it gets dark,
they set about committing all manner of depredations. A
representation has been made to the police
.Magistrates on
the subject by the inhabitants, who are in sightly dread of
being plundered of their property.

POORTATION OF WOOLLEN GOODS.

ihe following Parliamentary statement of the Exporta-
tion of Woollen Goods from Great Britain to all parts Of
the world, for the last eleven years, shows that that part
of our export trade has continued pretty steady. It has
neither increased nor diminished—in fact, it has scarcely
varied at all.
