Arrived at Troon on Thursday morning, the brig
Jane of Glasgow, Captain MunDocii, from Quebec,
In 28 days. being her second voyage this season.
Sailed from Quebec on the 7th ult. in conipany with
the Kate. for Dublin, and the Earl Dalhousie, for
Aberdeen. On the .12th off the Birdrocks, in the
Gulf of St. Lawrence, spoke the brig Robert of Irvine,
Captain Nut. front Clyde to Quebec; and on 2d of
November, in lat. C.J. 20. long. 10. the Prompt from
Richepircio far Lancaster, all well : left loading for
Clyde, the Sophia. Moose, and the Rebecca, NPICEN-
zris, to sail about the '..).oth.

The co:nplements of the Queen Charlotte and the
guard-ship s, at Portsmouth, having been
reduced according to the recent regulations for their
establishments, the officers and seamen exceeding the
numbers at present allowed were discharged on Fri-
' day. The seamen, however, are not likely to remain
uneraployea, as, independent of a great number be-
ing requited to complete the crews of the ships and
vessels fitting out at Portsmouth, an Officer has been
sent rounds trom the Severn, stationed in the Dawns,
for the purpose of entering all such as may be wil-
'into volunteer for the suppression of smuggling '
along the coasts of Kent and Sussex, where, we un-
derstand, as many as 1500 are to be so employed.
The Lazaretto at the Motherbank has been paid
off, and a small brig is now stationed there as a la-
zaretto, with two men and one boy on board. The
old ship had on board a master, mate, and eight sea-
men; consequently the reduction of expenditure will-
be considerable. Captain Boas retains.the office of
Superintendant, a situation he has most ably filled
for many years.

THE HitsTwon.—Some errors we find have crept
into the accounts which have been published in most
of the Newspapers respecting this vessel. The real
circumstances respecting her building, &c. we un-
derstand to be as follows :

The Barnaciq did not stop at Hurlers, but only landed a
few of her passenger. there. She was not built at Bombay, but
at Calcutta, and is intended, not to be made a pres,nt of, but
to be sold to the British Bovernsner.t for her original cost, viz.
120,0004 She is perfectly 6: for the service origioally intended,
and was compelled to put into the Isle of France merely front
inattention to the stowage of her care., in the fist instuce, being
obliged to discharge part, and stow the whole afresh for the
easement of the ship, and not reduced in her measurement as
rated in the papers. She is indeed a fine ship of her class, and
it is supposed will entirely answer the purpose of her proprietors,
who area number of French merchants and others resident in
Calcutta, as they built Mr for the purpose of proving their capa-
bility of equalling. Bombay, hitherto the only Presidency at
which hit .11.1je:ty s ships have been built.
