WHEAT FOR THE NAVY.—At the Royal William
Victualling Yard, Plymouth, tenders were called for
1,000 quarters wheat for the supply of this department,
and on the tenders being opened on Wednesday, the par-
ties were informed 3,000 quarters were taken ; it being
understood that the government telegraphed to the Cap-
tain Superintendent that morning to secure other 2,000,
if to be done. The prices ruled from 87s. to 90s. per
quarter.
THE GREAT BEITAIN.—A telegraphic communication
reached Messrs. Gibbs, Bright, and Co., (per the Ballarat)
' on Friday, from Messrs. Bright Brothers, of Melbourne,
stating that that vessel was to sailon her homeward passage
I from Sydney on the 19th November, and from Melbourne
on the 20th December. She was to take the route vie'
Cape Horn and the Falkland Islands. Her arrival at this
port, therefore, may be shortly looked for.
Deareninl.—Several commanders of ships have been
fined at Demerara for neglecting to send their men to
the hospital within twelve hours after their complaining
of being unwell. The colonial law is very imperative on
this subject, and it is enforced with great severity, par-
ticularly since the prevalence of the yellow fever in the
shipping there. The several parties accused were fined
from ten to twenty dollars.
DISISTM TO AN EMIGRANT SHIP.—The American
packet-ship E. Z., Captain Hartshorne, which sailed from
this port on the 18th ult., put into Belfast Lough, with
loss of sails and making water. The E. Z. sailed from
this asort on the 12th November last, and, after some time,
put hack seriously damaged, and had only been repaired
prior to her sailing on the 18th ultimo.
NEWSPAPERS TO GREECE AND TURKEY.—A notice has
been issued from the General Post-office announcing that
information has been received from the Prussian Poet-
office, that newspapers forwarded from the United Rings
dom to Greece, or to the lonian Islands, or to the under-
mentioned places vi Turkey, &c., in which Austrian
post-offices, have been established, viz :—Beyrout, Retus-
chany, Bucharest, 'Canes, Constantinople, Derelaaelles,
Galatz, Gallipolilbriali Jassy, Lanaca, Alytelene, Mostar,
Rhodes, Ruin-oink, Safonica, Samson's, Seres, 'Smyrna,
Tenedos, Tchesine, Trebizond, Tultcha, and Velma, cannot
be transmittetrihrough Prussia, as newspapers, unless a
postage of tit per half ounce be paid in advance, and
further that 'the rate of ld. each must be prepaid upon
newspapers addressed' to other places in Talley.
THE GUMICO DEPOSITS OF THE 'CICIECNA ISLANDS.—
A note line 'been received at the Peruvian Legation from
the Minister of Finance of the Republit, hearing date the
124th of December, in which the followittgis communicated
to the Charge d' Affairs :—" The 'Government nominated
a deptitetion, in order that they 'Might undertake the
measurement of the guano of the Chincla Islands. This
therefore has been effected by men 'best qualified for the
purpose, with as much accuracy us could be obtained,
adopting the latest improvements in the scientific proceed-
ings,and the following result •has ,been given :—That the
isieed situated at the north -contains 4,189,477 ; the centre
isload, 2,505,948; the south Wend 5,680,675 ; or, a total

above 12,376,100 tons will yield 16,501,466 tons of weight

MARINE SAFETY SY/T.—The Sunderland Times says,
—"We think it very deidrable to press on our maritime
readers the desirability4of constructing the deck seats
which stand by the ,companion, on the principle df ;the
marine safety seat. This would place at the disposal:Of-a
shipwrecked crew a seems of communicating with the
shore, and even of reabliing it, which they do uoteat pre-
sent possess. The invention of the safety seat is due to
Lieutenant Rhind, KN.., whose attention was first -di-
rected to the valneof.:deck seats as an auxiliaeyenethOd
of safety, by the wreak of the Albion in 1836. 'The con-
struction of the scathe of so simple a character' hat any
ship carpenter Might-make one. `The back and seat-are
constructed with a '-':framework, with four strong cross
pieces to receive the :legs ; the interstices are lined with
cork, and the whole-veneered with seasoned fir; 'the legs
are made to shift, and are fastened with coppermuts ; the
elbows lock in eadhsether, and are fastened With a pin ;
underneath the seat there are two strong cleats, and the
edges of the Isacianal seat have a strong moulding, which
protects the morticee where the legs are plaePti when put
as outriggers? Eat it is not necessary that this plan
should be adopted. If the ordinary deck seats are made
for the back to cleat ivith the seat, and the legs moveable,
even then a great.bieseet would be attained, the urea-being
four times entlarged. Lieut. Rhind's deck seat is convertOd
into an ordinary raft by the back and seat 'beingeleuted
together, and the 'legs put in at right angles. This tem-
porary raft, with aLermudean sail, would carry a rope to
a lee shore where •mo boat could live. Thecost Of- the
seat when fully fitted up would be about a 'pound more
than the usual-seats. Such is the simple contrivance- of
the safety seat. The invention has been approved of'by
parties on whose ilidgment some reliance •can 'be Placed.
Lieut. Rhind senttwo models to the Great exhibition,
one as a seat, the.dther as a raft, and had the prize medal
awarded to him forehis invention. The Elder 'Brethren
of the Trinity House, at a very full meeting, ales approval
of it, and Prince Frefwrick of the Netherlands sent the
inventor his silver medal. Notwithstandingthese highly
satisfactory notices.of the invention, it has mot received,
from the maritimeecummunity, that practicel,recog•nition
which its value demands."
Wireer OF A. 'LIVERPOOL SHIP.—The Melees Jones,
Captain Todd, heloneirg to this port, has beeneotelly lost
on one of the Shetland Islands. She sailed from Leith
for Valparaiso hunt -month, and during a 'violent gale
from the west an the :31st January, struck on a sunken
rock off Eshanes,pointof North Navin, in Shetland, and
instantly went into ii thousand pieces. Out of the-entire
crew not one remained to tell the frightful tale. -The
Charles Jones had theasmterials of an iron pier on board
for Valparaiso. A -caak.ef sherry wine, a small portion .of
the hull, and pert of the ship's papers have washed-on shore.
NARROW Esesere.--e-The Wild Rover, which arrived
here from New Otleans,, with a cargo of otton, &c., was
estruck by lightning-on the 26th ult. in lat. 46 N., glop. 44/
-W. The electric field 'descended the foremast, :and after
ethe thunderstorm had subsided it was ascertained that the
(cargo in the ford-Laid had ignited. With great presence
ref mind Captain Hamilton-ordered the hatches to 'be kept
.41osed and the- force pump-rigged. The crew, as is ,usual
.4ehen a commander is .cool and collected, obeyed the order
.With alacrity, and soon a eentinuous and abundant stream
Ofwater was poured upon the burning mass. Wheteit
„was considered that the fireswas extinguished the hatches
-were taken off, but it was -found that several bales were
stinsemouldering ; they wereillowever, quickly hoisted alp
and: thrown overboard (35 in ,animber.) Had it not been
for the presence of mind of.Ceptain Hamilton and the te-
-eellent.discipline of the crew, ethe vessel must have been
-destroyed.
ANQIIITER SHIPWRECK. ON ans.—The coast of the
islandof Barra, off the western partof Scotland, has been the
scene of ti.e total loss ofthe LivezeoelshipW. H. Davis, Car-
ling, master, while on her voyage to New Orleans, with
every smilean board (excepting one man)—in all thirty
persons. The ship had become -.unmanageable in the
ccourse of the recent westerly gales, :and in attempting, on
the night f the 17th of last month, to weather Barra-
head, she went on shore on the rocks Fpf Vatersay, within
a Short distance of the spot where the Anne Jane emi-
' grant ship )vas lost a few months slate. The moment
the ship touched the rock the molter ,and crew took to
the rigging, as ;their only chance of meape, expecting,
no doubt, as :the wreck heeled over, they would be able
to gain the rocks. In a few minutes the ship was dashed
to pieces, and the rhole of the poor fellows fell amide
wreck and perished. Only one escaped—tbe steward, a
young man, ,named Robert William Rushmore, of 48,
Devonport-street, Tina-park, Liverpool. He took refuge
on the :bowsprit, and as the vessel went to pieces he
sprang forward and succeeded in reaching the, ocks in
safety, although very much bruised. He was Almost in-
sensible when assistance arrived the next morning. Several
bodies of the crew were discovered among the rocks by
the fishermen,erhoconveyedthem to Vatersay for interment.
A GALLANT SEA. CA.FTA.TN.—The brig Sea Adventure,
Glazebrook, of Shoreham, which put into Plymouth, es
Tuesday, in distress, left Buenos Ayres on the Bth of
November, for Cork or Falmeeith, for orders. 10th of
January, when about 250 miles N.W. of the Azores
Islands, experienced a hurricane from W.N.W., which
carried away foremast, bowsprit, cutwater, figurehead,
cook's galley, boats and stanchions, And bulwarks on the
larboard side. So heavy was the sea tatat the galley, iron
caboose, cooking apparatus, and all were carried clean
ever her side. end she eneoeiraterod atwitter storm, which
carried away the remainder of her bulwarks and stan-
chions, started her stern frame, and carried away the
companion, compelling the captain to batten down the
entrance to the cabin, abandon the use of it, and take his
quarters among the crew in the forecastle. There was
not a single spar to rig the jurymast, and the loss of the
foremast and bowsprit sent the brig down by the stern,
in order to remedy which it became necessary to throw
some of her After cargo overboard ; but this could only be
got at by entering the hold from the forecastle and drag-
ging the hides forward. During the gale one of the crew
was washed overboard twice, but was providentially reco-
vered. Captain Glazebrook, having set three jibs as stay-
sails, persevered in bringing his disabled craft a distance
of 1,300 miles ; he declined assistance on entering the
Channel, and completed his purpose by steering her
safely into Plymouth Sound. The crew of the brig con-
sists of ten hands, including Captain Glazebrook.
Marron AND FOREIGN SEAMEN.—Mr. Cardwell told
the House of Commons, on Friday night, that of 190,000
sailors, who left the ports of this kingdom last year, there
were only 2,500 foreigners among them. We presume the
right hon. gentleman has some authority for his figures,
but to us the statement appears incredible. Before the
manning clause of the Navigation Act was repealed, the
number of foreign seamen eligible to serve in British
ships, in the over-sea trade, was 47,000, in the proportion
of three-fourths British to one foreign seaman. But as
our coasters had to be manned entirely with British
subjects, we may allow, 60,000 of the seamen to have been
so employed, which would leave 130,000 for the foreign
trade of the kingdom. Admitting, however, that the
coasting trade engaged 100,000 seamen, and that 90,000
werein the foreign trade, it gives 22,500 foreigners who
might have served in British ships without infringing the
law. Mr. Cardwell says that last year 2,500 only offered
themselves; if so, we cannot see that there was any neces-
sity for repealing the manning clause, which has created
a very discontented feeling among British seamen. It
also destroys the argument that the scarcity of British
seamen called for the measure. We suspect, however,
that Mr. Cardwell can have had no sufficient means of know-
ing the number of foreigners engaged in British ships.
We believe that the number of Lascars and other
Asiatics that arrived from India, Australia, and the ports
in the Pacific, in the last year, would far exceed the
figures of Mn. Cardwell; and all these foreigners were
brought to England under an engagement to send them
home again ; indeed, it is obligatory on shipowners, under
the 64th section of the Merchant Seamen's Act. The
statement, therefore, of the President of the Board of
Trade must be received with some reservotiou,—,Fhipping
and Mercantile Gazette.

Ruby was in demand for the Two Thousand Guineas, at 4 to

18 to 1 on the field, and subsequently 20 to 1. which was taken
about both the Star of Surrey and Newminster. The latter
has for some time been very "shaky" in the market, but is
now firm, and as good a favourite as anything. There was a
disposition to bet against Nabob, and to back Dan Cupid,
