NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

F.xtract of a letter from Capt. Tuve, of the Jane, arrived off the
Wight, from Jamaica, whence she sailed the 15th of August:
" We Dad light winds until the 6th of September, when we expe-
rienced a hurricane which lasted 48 hours, and during which we
lost all our bulwarks, several sails, and, I fear, washed a great
quantity of sugars on the starboard side. We cut away both jib-
booms. On the 26th we experienced another hurricane, and lost
our round-house and three studding sails, had our jolly-boat and
cook-house stove, and the sugar washed on the larboard side. 1 ant
afraid the loss on the cargo is considerable."
Extract of a letter dated Messina Sept. 27:—" We regret to
state that the new instructions on the Porto Franco have not pro-
duced the beneficial effects anticipated. Notwithstanding the in-
crease of duty, no sales can be made to advantage—sugar alone ex.
cepted. Of most articles of import we have two or three years'
consumption. Shipments of barley are making for Ireland."

peals, after which, three prisoners were tried; none of whose cases
possessed any interest. The remaining cases of felony will be tried
to-morrow, after which the traverses since the last Session will be
gone into.
WESTMINSTER SESSIONS, Ocv. 19.
. None oldie cases tried to-day were of any importance or public
interest. A true bill was found for an assault against Richard Arch-
dale, the person called Col. Archdale, who was lately charged
Mary-la-house Police Office by his own man servant for in aggra-
vated offence; but in consequence of the defendant having removed
the case by certiorari to the Court of King's Bench, further proceed-
ings are stopped here.
