Rerort or TuE Secrerany or Tue Navy, The following summury of this Report is also copied from the Courier Enquirer The Mediterranean Squadron has not been continued during the last year. is proposed to revive it as soon as circumstances wilr permit. The station at Mahon has been discon- tinued at the earnest request of the Portuguese overnment, and measures are in progress for removal of the public stures from place. The Fast India squadron, consisting of the Columbus, 74, and the sloop Vincennes, is supposed to have sailed for Japan and Kamskatka, in the month of May or June last, and to have returned to Maeao about this They will probably commence their homeward cruise via the North Pacific in Junuary or February. Orders were sent to Com.

Biddle in January last to proceed to the west coast of Mexico, and assume the command of the squadron there. No'acknowledgment of the receipt of them has been received at the The Brazil squadron consists of the rigate Columbus, Commander Ritchie, and the brig Bainbridge, Licutenant commanding Pennington, under Commodore Rosseau. The African squadron consists of the frigate United States, the sloop Marion, brigs Dolphin and Boxer, and the store ship Southampton, 96 guns inall. A full and interesting narrative 18 given of the operations of the Pacific squadron since the war, both under Com. Sloat and Com.

Stockton, and copies are aunexed of the official reports of these officers. The squadron now consists of the Savannah and the Congress frigates the sloops Portsmouth, Levant, Warren, and Cyane schooner Shark, and store ship Erie. The Razee Independence is on her way out with Com. Shubrick, who will on his arrival assume command, and the sloop Preble has sailed for the same destination, The doingw of the home squadron are also fully narrated, and copies annexed of the official reports of Com. Conner in reference to the blockade, the designs on Alvarado, the affair at Tobasco, and the taking of Tampico.

Full justice is done to the commanders of both squadrons, in whom the confidence of the department seems unabated. Extracts from the instructions under which they acted, show also a disposition on the part of the Government to lvoicr all collision with Mexico, if The vessels comprising the Navy of Texas seem to have been found unworthy of repair, with the exception of the Austin, which is at Pensacola. others have been ordered to be sold. The estimates of the department are based on the cmplogmunt of 10,000 men, though no more than 8,500 are now in service. Authority is asked to build four sea steamers to be employed in connection with our squadrons The practicability of the dry dock at New York is notdoubted, and the work is urged upon the favorable notice of Congress.

A dock at Pensacola is also recommended, and other improvements to increase the efficiency of the yard at that place. The restriction on the Memphis work adopted at the last Con. gress, it is thought may be advantageously removed. Arrival of the Cambria. FIFTEEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.

The British Royal Mail Steamer CAmnRIA, arrived at Boston, on Wednesday night about 9 1-2 o'clock. 5 She left Liverpool on the afternoon of the 4th, and has made the passage in a little more than 12 the shortest passage ever made, and certainly remarkable at this season of the year, The news is not very important, but is interesting. We make extracts from the Boston papers of Thursday. Great misery prevailed in Flanders, occasioned by the want of food and by the want of employment. The Cambria brought 78 passengers.

On the Bth, in lat. 50 30, lon. 15 50, passed a large steamer, supposed to be the Great West. ern. The Great Britain steamer had not been got off, and accounts from her speak very delpondin(gly.

The Grain trade had rather improved and more actively prevailed. A advance had takeh in the value of wheat, and 10,000 bbls of bonded flour had been taken for 29s to 30s per barrel. Indian corn had declined 2s to 3s per quarter, The Cotton market for the last two days been in a very excited state and such had been the perseverance with which it has been maintained, (upwards of 23,000 bales being taken by speculators in three days) that a rise of three-eighths of a penny had taken place within that short period. The American Provision Market was dull, and prices on the decline. The harvest in Egypt is more abundant than in ordinary and very much exceeds the wants of the inhabitants.

All France is at this moment in a state of great excitement with respect to the andacious suppression, by Russia, Austria, and Prussia, of the republic of last remaining vestige of the once great Polish nation, Affairs in Portugal are looking most serious. It is said that the Queen has sent to Spain for assistance. with thousands of the Irish peasantry thatis an unexaggerated rages. Nevertheless, the progress of destination has been less rapid and destructive in its movements than previous accounts would have led us to expect, From the New London Nuwsnf Monday LATER THE WRECKED ATI.ANTI'(?.—I More Bovies Saturday evening the 13th the body of a man came shore, and was picked up, destitute of clothing, except boots.

On his person were $285 in bank bills, 10 in gold, and a watch. I Parts of two skulls were also found, but of course, could not be identified.

The top of a trunk was found with the letters in brass nails on it. The bottom of a trunk was found with Colamore, Boston, written on it.

W. blow of Saturday, we understand that the mass of wreck which has been piled and wedged together on the shore was, to use the language of one who was on the spot, completsly and scattered in all direetions; and it is conjectured that these bodies were washed from under the mass. Doubtless others will be found, which have remained buried beneath the wreck since that terrible disaster, In the lists of the passengers which have been published heretofore, no name was inelu. ded that bore any resemblance to The house of Andrew Robeson, situated in the southwest part of Fall River, was discovered to be on fire on Tuesday afternoon of last week, supposed to have caught from the hot air furnace.

Opinion of a Regular Physician. Exeter, Sept, 30, 1845, This certifies that I have recommended the use of WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY for diseases of the Lungs, for two years past, and many bottles to my fkuowledge have 'been used'by my patients, all with beneficial results. Intwo cases, where it was thought confirmed consumption had taken place, the effected a cure. E. BOYDEN, Physician at Exeter Coruer.

NO QUACKERY! NO DECEPTION! All published statements of cures performed by this medicine, are, in every respect, TRUE: BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS AND 1 ITATIONS. The unparalleled and efficacy of Dr. Balsam of Wild 'Cherry in all the diseases for which it is curing many cases after the skill of he best physicians was unavailing, has effected a large and increasing demand forit. This has caused severaljunprincipled counterfeiters and imitators to palm off spurious mixtures, of similar name and apgearance, for the genuine Balsam. Be careful and get the genuine Dr.
