Barly Departure of the American Squadron for Lisbon— Proposed Oruise of Admiral Goldsborough in the Frolic—Dinmer of Vice Admiral du Gueydon to Ad ‘miral Goldstorough and Commanding Officers—Stormy Weather—The Dinner to the Russians at Cherbourg, dc. ‘The American squadron, which has been at anchor in ‘thie harbor for two weeks or more, is about to terminate tts not very agreeable visit, and, separating, eail away, to unite again in the harbor of Lisbon, Portugal. It will Jeave without regret, and without a desire to renew the visit, During its brief stay it cannot be justly accused of wearing out the hospitality of the French, because there have been but the very slightest favors extended, and they so grudgingly that few have been accepted. To be sure, access to the harbor has been granted the fleet, and room enough to anchor the ships, and _permis- sion to land, walk the streets of the town and purchase provisions in its markets, and even to participate in the pleasures afforded by a second or third rate opera fm the theatre, But beyond these privilegés it is @iMicult to say that anything is eepecially due to eur friends ashore. It was with great difficulty that permission could be obtained to visit the Navy ‘Yard,- and, when received, so many troublesome regulations and hitches hedged it about that it was availed of but by few. The Colorado’s officers, after ‘waiting at the gate an hour or two in full uniform, and receiving not the slightest attention, turned away in dis- feast and returned to their ship. I will give the com- manding officer of the station the credit of giving the proper orders by which the Colorado’s officers were to be admitted. They failed through the neglect of the subordinates, The French are not particularly friendly after all, and we are ail glad to get away. Rear Admiral Goldsborough, and Captain Case and Lieutenant Lamson, of his staff, and Captain Harrall, of the Kearsarge; Captain Wyman, of the Colorado, and Captain Upshur, of the Frolic, dined yesterday evening with Vice Admiral and the Countess du Gueydon. There re a number of French naval officers present and Mr. Kerros, United States Vice Consul. ‘Those who visited the Navy Yard here were struck by ‘the vastness and capacity of the yard to turn out any- ‘thing connected with a ship-of-war with despatch. The sbope and foundries are immense, and the number of ‘workmen engaged correspondingly large. There are three § iron-clad corvettes under way in the yard; one already plated and in the water, and the others just receiving their armor, One je built on @ novel plan, having-a screw at either end. As no one was invited to inspect the iron-clads it is impossible to say precisely how she +s arranged internally. They are all to be furnished with powerful engines, and armed with heavier guns than hose now on the Magenta and the Heroine classes. They are to be ready for sea next summer. The squadron will leave this port to-morrow morning, wf the weather, which is now bad, cleare up. Admiral Goldsborough, accompanied by Captain Case, Liew t Jamson and Mr. Offiey, secretary, will join the Frolic, on which vessel the broad pennant will fly until the Squadren unites again at Lisbon. The Frolic will fret proceed to L’Orient, to which point the Admiral goes by vail, and will remain there long enough to enable the officers to visit and inspect the naval etation at that int. Thence, with the Admiral on board, she will go ‘to Rochefort, another naval station, and also 10 Rochelle, acity nearby. Then she will sail for Lisbon, touching for afew days at Nantes, Bordeaux, and perhaps Bay enne, France; Ferrol and Corunna, Spain, and Oporto, Portugal—arriving at Lisbon the’ latter’ part of the month. The Colorado and Kearearge will sai) for Lisbon direct, not using ther m power except under the mort press. img need. Hereafter passages will be made from port to port under sail altogether, when it is possible, in order to reduce the expenses of the squadron to the lowest point, The coal bills, when a squadron is steaming much of the time, are something frightful, and the Admiral, with bis usual good judgment, has determined to reduce them to the minimum. Tde passages between ports may be by a few days more protracted, and, perhaps, lees comfortable to the officers who are cager to be well over a sea journey and amid new scenes and people; but these considers. diong should not, as they do not, weigh with the Admiral im the conduct of the affairs gntrusted to him by the gov- ernment. When the necessity occurs, of course the ‘ion of coal will not be allowed to cripple his opera- on8. Yesterday and to-day, forthe firet time in forty-five ays, rain has fallen in Breet. Ite want has been much felt by the agricultural and, in fact, all classes of people. The crops have been stunted and ehrivelled by the jong continued drought and the altogether exceptional heat of ‘the past summer, and consequently a have been com- paratively short. The moderate supply of vegetables enbanced their price, and it has thus been felt by the common people.

Oddly enough, I have, by some meaneor other, neg. ‘ected w mention ‘the crowning glory of the feries of entertarnmenty the officers of the Rusean corvette Askold, in Cherbourg, just before the departure of the American equadrop from Cherbourg.

The wines were all that could be desired, in quantity and quality, and the Ruesians as well a8 the Colorado's officers, who were invited to meet the gnests of the evening and the borte, were in most ox. sellent spirits. On the balcony in tront of the hotel were suspended the American and Russian flange, floating together; and this significant fact fid not fail to draw & large and interested crowd of residents into the #treet, where they stood for hours watching the progress of the dinner and listening to the sentiments and songs that issued from the banquet wom.

A Vielt of a fine squadron to the Northern Powers would have a good effect in every point of view; and] hope that Admiral Goldsborough may be abie to go to Copen- hagen and Cronstadt next season, But it is rather early, just now, to discuss the matter, Mr. F.

L'Ontmnr, Oct. 14, 1865. Movements of the United States Squadron— Visit to L’Ori- ent of Admiral Goldsborough—The Navy Yard—Re- ‘mains of the Great South Sea Bubble—Port Louis, dc. ‘The United States steamer Frolic, with the flag of Rear Admiral Goldsborough,’ arrived yesterday at this port from Brest, and came to anchor off the town. She had been detained several days in Brest by reason of a heavy woeterly gale, which raged with great violence on the coast of France and in the North Sea She finaily put out, and encountered a heavy sea on her run down, but made exceMent weather. At Brest she left the frigate Colorado, Commander Wyman, under orders to proceed to Lisbon and await the arrival of the Admiral. The un- favorable weather doubtless detained her until to-day, when she probably set gail for the above port, The Kearearge, Commander Harrall, sailed two or three days before the departure of the Frolic, and encountered the full force of the gale in the Bay of Biscay, one of the roughest and most tumultuous bodies of water in the world. As she had orders to sail to Lisbon she probably is not yet far off from this coast. She isa fine seaboat, with the usual inclination to roll heavily and uncomfortably found in veeeels of her class; but be- yond this unpleasant habit she is as good a ship ag one would care to be in, under all circumstances. We find the harbor of L’Orient small, but well pro- tected against the heavy gales which eweep the coast from the westward. It is acceesible at high water to vessels of the deepest draught, and has been fortified with great care to protect the Navy Yard, which is one of the oldest in France, but now ranking second in rate. The town itself is of comparatively modern date; is well laid out and finely paved, clean and quite attractive. Be- fore the creation of the famous East India Company by Law, in 1666, the town was a mere fighing village of no importance or size, But the great author of the South Sea bubble eolected the site asthe proper one for the headquarters of bis immense company, which was to rival the English Kast India Company in wealth and power, and control in a great measure the commerce and monetary affairs of the worid. The history of the South Sea bubble is too well known to your readers to require a Fecital at my hands. It had but an epjemeral exiet- ence; but, like a bubble, it flam ed out in the cammercial world in the most attractive and brilliant hues, and, while it rumed thousands it was of advantage to the workmen of this part of Brittany, and was the foundation of the city of L’Orient. For Law, in order that the wonderful scheme should seem to have a more solid basic than that shadowed forth in brilliant ‘‘pros- pectuses” and elegantly raved “certificates of shares,” constructed on the neck of ground lying be- tween two small creeks a large number of immense buildings in the most massive and substantial way for storehouses and offices of the Great East India Company. No trifling commerce was to be carried on, if we are to judge, from the number, character and eize of the buildings here erected. The wealth ef the Indies was to pour into L’Orient, and ehips from every port of the globe ‘wero to lie at anchor in the roads. Unfortunately for the stockholders the bubble burst, but not before an immense sum of money bad been expended in the mag- nificent buildings now occupied by the government as naval storehouses. The workmen were probably the only ople who derived benefit from the company created by Law; the stockholders never saw any return from their investments, and many who had plunged deeply into the seductive speculation were ruined. But the buildings now stand as massive, elegant and strong as in the days that Law, in princely style, occupied the finest mansion in the new city, and directed the machinery which in- volved #0 many fortunes. That the approach of sails bearing to the company’s wharves the wealth of India might be early kuown he erected near bis mansion ao tall, airy, gracefal tower, on which quick eyed watchmen should stand and catch afar off the gleam of sunlight on snowy canvas. as it swept in from seaward. Busy pennants of bright and varied hues were to tell the directors and the city the pleasant story of incoming mercbantmen bours before they could pase the fortified gates of Port Louis, and sweep up between the green islands of the bay, and come to anchor off the town, to discharge their rich freights into the overflowing warehouses of the company. Though the town lifted itself up one hundred and eighty feet, and gave to the lookouts a broad prospect of sea and coast, and though bigh above them ficw the com- pany’s flag, no glimpee of returning eail rewarded the watchmat’s long and careful gaze, and in vain looked the city for the shifting flag®, probiising thrift and pient wall, The bebbie finally t, and all that was Teh may bow be seen in the Navy Yard of L’Orient. The butidings are uscd as government storehouses and work- shops, and the tower is devoted to the original use de- sigued by the naval authorities; but it will long remain @ monument of one of the greatest swindles that history has afforded a trace of, and a warning to speculative ‘and credulous minds ‘the world over. A fiarming pe- troleum light on its top might not inappropriately sym- bole the more modern bat not lere airy bubbles that have floated in the atmosphere of the New World and worked destruction. ‘The Navy Yard, as compared with Cherbourg and Brest, is of secondary importance, and presents but few objects of peculiar interest. An immense machine and railway, by which timber is taken up from the water, transported to a saw mill and eawed into shape for the construction of ships, is worthy of mention. The old fashioned mode of bending timber into the proper has been almost entirely abandoned, aud nearly ail is now prepared for use by this ingenious machine. Two men are required to manage the affair, and the rapidity and cheapness with which timber is prepared are sou thing wonderful. It is at least two-thirds more ecopom- cal in material and time than our most approved system. Ships are bere built in balf the time consumed in our own ee a at an expense one-third lese, as bear as may if course labor is much cheaper, thirty eous a day being the usual pay of ordinary workmen in the government employ ; but the improved labor saving ma- chinery ie @ very important element in obtaining the great result. No nation in the world builds ships more cheaply or more rapidly than the French, and the speci- mens of naval architecture recently turned out of goveru- ment yards are not surpareed in strength or in beauty of models, in speed or weatherly qualities, by vessele of a@-similar clase built by any nation in the world. Their iron-clade are models of #trength, and though perhaps open to what Americans apd Englith may deem serious objections in the matter of armament, are not sur- passed by the best English iron-clads. ‘They ure fast, well ventilated, and may be made by a change of arma ment most formidable against any jron-clad in the world, There is also in the yard fine marine railway, capable of drawing , largest ships. Near the is an immense ting pen, containing enough of the world to build a new idly seasoued and ready for use. At each naval station the Emperor has collected iinmense rafts of timber, and he could go on for years building eS fleets and not draw a single spar from abroad. re are no timber yards on the globe more extensive than those at Brest, L’Orient and Toulon. This yard feeme to be devoted more exclusively to repairs than Cherbourg or Brest, it being weil arranged for that pur- pore, About two thousand men are employed in the yard. The Darien, a French edewheel steamer, came in from the North American station to-day, looking rusty and light. She was in New York at the departure of the Colorado from that port, Unfortunately she hat been too long homeward bound to bring us very late news from the United States—a matter that we all regret. Tn the line of amusements L’Orient affords but little action. A email tbree-horse circus on the Place a’ Armes, with ring somewhat than a plate and dimiy illuminated by a baker's dozen of lamps, with two clowns who did the tumbling and were the gymnasts of the institution, could be seen for ten cents—a sum not exorbitant when one congidors that the first place is re- served for patrons of such \beral ideas, The circus was well patronized by persons (rom the rural districts, who smoked their pipes through the performance with @ so renity which the facetious remarks of the clowns failed fo disturb. A café chantant and @ poor opera seem to constitute the principal sources of enjoyment of the peo- ple of L:Onent, Our stay is very brief, and we manage 10 pass the time tolerably well, To-morrow we leave for St, Nazaire, @ port at the mouth of the Loire, from whence we sball endeavor to reach Nantes, to show the flag at the city. As a mem, to lovere of fardines, 1 may romark that the fishery this season hae boen successful to an unusual extent, The fish are fine, and the process of preparing them j# going on well, L/Orient is one of the great centres of the ries, although few of the boxes when ready for market bear the true name of the place where they are prepared. One fishery frequently supplies half a doven jarge houses, which sustain unequal reputations in the market. The quality of the fish is of course near. ly the same. | hope soon to be in possession of the de- tails of preparing sardines for market, and will then lay them before the readers of the Heracn.

Rocwevort, Oct. 23, 1865. Visit of the Frolic to Rochefort—The Navy Yard—Iron- Clads and Torpedo Boat—Increase in the French Iron- Clad Squadron—The Brandy Trade of Rochelle—Death of Surgeon Allingham, of the Frolic, His Funeral, dc.— Handsome Conduct of the French Authoritia—La Ro- chelle, de. ‘The Frolic arrived here on the 21st from Orient and St. Nazaire, having been anchored in the latter port for four days, it being found impossible on account of the low state of water in the Loire to ascend to Nantes, Our very excellent consul at Nantes, Mr. John de la Mon- taigne, of New York, came down to St. Nazaire as goon as the arrival of the Frolic at that port was made known to him, and with him he brought the best pilot on the river. But, after full consultation, it was deter- mined that it would be exceedingly dangerous to attempt to carry the ship to Nantes, in consequence of the shoals ‘and bars in the river. If it were possible to get the ship up it would require several days to return; 80 the idea was relinquished, and Admiral Goldsborough and staff and many officers of the ship visited Nantes by railway. St. Nazaire is comparatively young as a commercial town. It was not until the failure of the efforts of the engineers to improve the navigation of the river to Nantes that it began to assume activity in a commercial line. It had been a miserable fishing town, famous for sardines; but it at once changed its character and felt the life giving impulses of trade when it was made the principal port of the Loire. The Emperor immediately began extengive improvements to make the harbor one of the firet in France. Immense basins or docks have been constructed, capable of admitting vessels of the largest class, The entrance to the huge basin, which is constructed in the most massive and elegant manner, all the facing being of cn:-stone, is furnished with im- mense locks, which are closed at high tide, thereby keeping the water in the basin at about the samo height all the time. It is occasionally allowed to flow out, to keep the water fresh and sweep out such refuse as may collect therein. A large number of ships were lying in the basin receiving or discharging cargoes, which are transported inland by the railway. Among the vessels there are the immense and powerful steamers belonging to the Fronch line between St. Nazaire and Mexico. The port is to be the French terminus of the projected line of steamers between France and Norfolk, Virginia—a line that existe as yet only op paper. Eventually 8t. Nazaire will become a port only equalled by Havre and Bordeaux, and perhaps in time will surpass the lat- ter. It has all the qualities of a good harbor, and must become a great port under the impulse of the present ruler of France. There are here already extensive ship- yards and iron works, and some eplendid specimens of ocean steamships have been constructed for the French company owning the Mexican line, Two largo steamers are pow on the stocks and will soon be ready for launch- ing. The city itself is rapidly ge @ little Paris, ‘The new portion of the city is well laid out, with wide streets running at right angles, well paved and lighted. The buildings are constrocted of the light yellow sto: #0 much tn vogue in Paris, and the architectural style is not unlike that prevailing in the capital. There are some very fine and hotels oe, in ion, and numbers of private residences al: ly built or in pro- cers of construction, which would not be a discredit to the finest city in Europe. The entire shipping interests of Nantes must soon go to St. Nazaire, and some of the Tesidents of the latter place will doubtless live to see their city grown to magnificent proportions, with a com- merce that shall extend to all portions of the globe. After remaining four days in St. Nazaire the Frolic came around to thie port, where she now lies, the Ad- miral and staff joining ber here, having come across by rail. Rochefort i¢ one of the secondary naval stations of France. It is situated on the river Chorante, about ten miles from ite mouth, and seems to have but one ad- vantage ag a naval station. It is a secluded, out-of-the- way place, rarely visited by Boag ies of war or merchantmen, the latter using elle as a port of entry. But the river is exceedingly narrow and vet crooked, making it difficult for long vessels to asce Notwithstanding there serious drawbacks, Rochefort turns out a large number of men-of-war. One large iron- clad corvette of the Heroine class, carrying fifty or stxty has just been launched, and {s now receiving her . A large troop ship anda transport for horées are now on the stocks, being rapidly pushed forward to com- pletion. Orders have just been received to commence the construction of three iron-clad corvettes, t be ied as soon ab poesidle. I may here observe dock yards of France new iron-clade are to be built at once and completed at the first moment. The nuraber is large, but the object of this immente and #udden augmentation of the French iron-clad navy and feet of t rts has not been made known, Something is evidently on foot, which time alone will develop. Of the truth of the above statement there is not the least doubt. I have it from several sources entirely reliable, In another year the Emperor's fleet will be stronger by at least ten or twelve iron-aads of the mort modern design. When they are to be used any one may conjecture, but mo one seems to know. Perhaps we may xee them on the North American coast at no distant day—a contingency that fs regarded by thoee who know the present temper of the Emperor as in no- wise improbable. But of the results of an engagement between the best French iron-clad and ap improved double turreted Monitor no one who has seen the two vessels and knows their apie offensive and defensive, would doubt My faith ie pinned to the fifteen-inch ons. There is in the yard here a strange submarine engine, designed for the purpose of destroying ships by tor. pedoes. It is a Jong vessel, in shape not unlike Winans’ cigar boat, constructed of copper, and capable, it ie said, of great speed. The great principle involved in the non- descript ® that enabling it to je for a long time under water. No one ia permit to go on board, lest the great secret should be discovered ; and the interior of the affair is a grand m to outsiders. I believe our government bave plans of the vessel, which ir some mysteriout way glided into their hands, and the secret fo carefully kept from foreigners here is well known in Washington. The boat is said to be a complete scocess, and promives to effect an entire and radical change in marine warfare. So the French tay, with I do not know what trot, Outside of the navy yard Rochefort presente little of interest It 18 a pretty little French city, of modern build, nicely Jaid out and in ® pleasant state of cleanliness. lte commerce is brandies entirely, and very extensive. Chorante, Hittle port three milee above the town on the river of the same name, exports an immense deal of cognac and Rocheile brandies to England. The brandies sent to America go from Rochelle, though the commerce during the rebellion has been very small. It is now reviving Fapidiy, and jarge quantities of the favorite drink of the South are being shipped, and the merchants are greatly encouraged.

TAMMANY CONVENTION—JOBN T. HOFFMAN NOM- INATED FOR MAYOR AND RICHARD 0’GORMAN FOR CORPORATION COUNSEL. ‘The eachems and their tribes were at their council cham- ber in Tammany Hall yesterday in full force. Isaac Bell, Esq,, presided as chairman, Justice Dodge ana Mr. Dieffendorf acting as ‘secretaries. The Convention was called to order at four o'clock P. M. by the chairman and proceeded at once to business. After the names of the delegates were called, the report of the committee ap- pointed to confer with other organizations was pend by the Hon. John Kelly. He stated that the com- mittee of which he was chairman had a confer- ence with the Mozart delegation relative to the pre- sentation of a candidate for Mayor to the Convention. He said that as the committee was not authorized by the Convention ,to take any measures on that subject no arrangement was entered into with the dele: gation from Mozart Hall. The Convention then pro- coeded to a ballot for Mayor and Counsel to the Cor ration, and John T. Hoffman and Richard O’Gorman were unanimously nominated for those positions. The names of Messrs. Purdy, Boole and Van Boren were proposed by some of the’ delegates for Mayor, but were withdrawn on the gentlemen declining to run against Mr. Hoffman. Mossre. Develin and Lawrence were also proposed as candidates for Corporation Cornsel, but were withdrawn for the same reason. A committee of seven was appointed to wait on Mr. Hoffman, and another on Mr. O'Gorman, to tender them the nominations. Both gentlemen appeared before the Convention and roy gens the nominations in brief but eloquent terms for the high honor paid them. They were received with the utmost enthusiasm, and all the delegates seemed to be mspired with confidence in the success of the ticket. The Con- vention then adjourned. The nomination for Counsel to the Corporation was offered to Mr. Develin from both Tammany and Mozart committees, but declined by him.
