The Duchayla (like all the French screw vessels), is clean ma‘e, light, aud emart im appearance. She had not her meam up, as the naval suthorites at Portsmouth had placed a vessel at fre seg of her five comfortable tenders waited at the quay, the whole being devoted to the exclusive service of the two Houses, Cepiain M’Dougal, the Admiralty superintendent, had every arrangment in his depar:meat in the mst effisient state of maturity at the appointed hour, niae o'clock, bat it was not until nearly twelve o’clock that the main vody of Peers and Commoners arrived from towo. In the meantime the sxperd fleet of merchant steamers which had been devoted to the service of the friends of the various companies, got successively under weigh, and as t] “4 moyed slowly out of the dock their several hands flayed mel:dien cf @ consolatory character, for the com fort of those who had to await on the quay the event of the more complicatei government srrangemeuts. At last ic was determined that such Peers and Commoners as had already assembled should be put oo hoard at once, and two tenders were epeedily filled wi 4 noble Jords and honoradle members, One steered for the Transit, which had been se‘ected fur the Lords, and the other for the J’erveverance, which, from ifs grenter size, wan thought better adapted to the exigencies of the more mumerous Commoners. For # fall hour the two huge ships lay on the smooth water within a length of each other, every one impatient to be off, the sailors eepecially indu'ging in iw mut- termgs im that forcible phraseology 80 often gives expression to nautieal emotion. Fre- quent con’erences took place between the two branches of the Legisiature, Lord Granville ecom- ing at onetime as ag end from the Peers, Mr. Henry Herbert returning with the answer of the Com- mons, the common objes: being a temperary turion of parties and Houses, in order that at least one ct ‘he two ships might get out to sea before the termination of the review.

The fleet was ordered to ssiute the fostent the roya! yacht showed clear of the harbor. This affeir. which ewok rightly judged would be the mos: steikiog fea. ture in the day’s proceeding was looked forwa-d to with immerse expectation and interest. The royal yecht showed each minute more and more clearly out of the karbor, yet stili no preparations reemed to have teen mace by the fleet towards anything like a general salute. Sudienly confated slack mass was seen at the shrouds of the headmost ships of the line, and in- Mantly,as iby magic, men swarmed up the rigging of every vessel in the fleet. They clustered upoa ths shrouds like bees. At firet there reemed confasion, but ae tbe men got higher, formed isto their places, and spread out upon the sarda, the marvellous iapidity and regularity of the whole mancuvre was secn with tevlings of a€miration and astonishment. Hordly bad the men joined bands when the royal yach: showed wail ont of the harbor, On the inatant one large dense epirt of snioke Cashed ina heavy mags from the site of the Duke of Wel- lington. The eye bad scarcely time to perceive li, ere trom every vescel slong the two lines came the same dis charge, foilowediustantly by another and another from he same ships ore the report of the first had time to reach. Ina moment after the heavy swelling rour cams suddenly up against the wind, increasing ae it roiled for- ward, until the air seemed to vibra'e psinfully with the ‘remendons concussions, In afew seconds the nulls of de whole fleet were enveloped in the cloais of white moke, from which, in regular order, from port wnd star- come toe broad flashes of the discharyes lice of yelow jightping.

Twe:ve months ego rearcely one of the gundost vessels mancuvred yerterday before the Queon was in existence. Tre majori'y have been orde:ed and completed within the last fix morths, and had the government found reason to think that rervice of more would have been reqri-ed, we are informed that with perfe:i ease 600 con d have been buflt, launched, srmedagd manued within the »yme space of ime. The first clase of gunboats is composed of screw rhipa of 200 feet in length, and carrying six Jong 68- pounders, provided wi h engines of 360 horse powor, and a crew of 100 men. This class ia intended es eub-divi- sional thips. The secord class are about 150 fuet I and carry four 68-pounders, are provided with enginss o 200 horee power, snd the crew numbers 80 haads. The tnird claes are about 100 feet long, ef 60 horse power gines, armed with one 68-pounder pivot gan, one 82- pounder ptvot gun, and two brass howitzers 24-pound- ere, on the broadside, This class is by far tne moat use- fuland numerous of the who'e flotiila, thei extraordi- nary light draught (genersily avereging from four to six feet) enabling them vo steam in the sna creeks and fnlets, while the heavy armament renders them effec- tive against the strongest forts. The whole bulwacks sre yrovided with moveable wrosght iron plates, perfectly ifle proo’, and were about seven feet abive the deck, ro a8 to protect the men from the enemy’s rifl men, in case of having to foros the passage of marrow rivers defended by sharpshooters. The fuarth clays is alro a useful flotilla for very shallow streams ant close In-shore service.
