Gadi-a.nt REBCUE —rnCuig ence wa3 rC(:L .i vf .,i by tho last West Indian mail. , n) . s a late iasue of London WetHy Times, of the \- eck ot tho A i geria a large Spanish steamer which ran„ horo durin | a • j on Cftbra Island, near Porto Ki„ on lho 6 2 5tfi of November. A boat was launched {. reso no the passengers and crew, but tho sea ran that she capsized and all hands were lost. On luring ot the disaster, and seeing that nothing more wt, beine attempted for the rescue of those on.boart contain Fauli, R.N., Her Majesty's Consul at Porto i\ C o i m . mediately seat to the Captain-Genernl to plh. e * |jj 3 experience and services as a naval officer at hi? ( ]j 3 _ posal, Captaiu Pauli having two different plans f or rigging a cradle, by means of which communicktiij! could be established with the ship. The offer wat warmly accepted, and" Captain Paulf, after making the necessary preparations, started off instantly at dead of night for Cabra Island, himself heading one of the two parties organised for the working of the cradle. His suggestions were cordially adopted by the Spanish naval force placed at his disposal by the authorities, and thanks to their energetic exertions under Captain Pauli's directions, all on board to the number of 300 souls wero saved. The Algeria shortly afterwards went to pieces, and, but for the bravery ef Her Majesty's Consul, it is not probable that anyone would have been left to tell the tale. New Ships for the N"AYr.--The Admiralty, says the London Weekly Times, have just issued a return of the ships building and ordered to be built. The Inflexible, twin-screw iron turret-ship, armour-plated, of 11,105 tons and 8.000 horse-power, h&ads tho list. She is building at Portsmouth, and will probably tie launched this year. She wiil carry four 81 ton guns mounted io revolving turrets, and will be the most powerful ship yet designed. The Dreadnought comes next with four guns in revolving turrets and is of 10 950 tons, B,COO horse power. She will, it i 3 hoped be afloat this year. A large number of names follow of ships unequalled by any othei nation. The Thunderer, four 38-ton gun.s, 0,100 tons. 5,600 now at Portsmouth ; the Temeraire, 8, double-screw iron armour-plated ship, of 8,412 tonnage 7 000 horse-power; the Nelson, 12, double-screw, armourplated ship, 7,323 tons, 6,000 horse-power, building by Messr.s Napier and Son, Glasgow; the Northampton a sister ship, is also being built by the same emiuent firm. The Alexandra, 12, double-screw armoured ship, 0.492 tons, S.OOO horse-power, at Chatham ; the Shannon, 9, screw armour-plated ship, 5,103 tons, 3,500 horse-power, at Pembroke, are both afloat. "Besides these heavy ironclads, there are a large number •f fast unarmoured frigates-building, and numerous small vessels. The greatest activity is being displayed ?n the Government establishments, men being largely taken on instead of being discharged. In addition, two new ironclads are ordered to bo built, but the designs are not completed. All th*se vessels have been designed in the Controller's Department at the Admiralty under the supervision of the Controller, Rear Admiral W. Houston Stewart, C. B. ARRTVAL OF THE BRODICK CASTLE. < We yesterday, reported the arrival in our waters of , this fine powerful ship from England., She uofor- ' tunately made the port too lata to enable .us to give < any details, in our yesterday's issue, of her outward ] passage, fclaviog been duly passed by the Health j Officei, the ship was admitted .to .pratique, and but for .the wind beiag adverse' would have come up har- 3 boitt. £lie .was compelled to anchor shortly before G sundown, off Holmes' wharf, .the tide not serving her 2 further.. Regarding her passage. Captain Thyne re- r ports having taken his departure from Plymouth on . the 14th "December last, with moderate south-south- u east winds. Caught the north-east trades in latitude n 19 north and longitnd* 28 west, on the sth January. These' were < carried as far as 2 degrees north,' but proved very light. The Equator was crossed on the 13th January, SI days out. Fell in with the southeast trades immediately after losing the north-east, rhey proved moderate and bore the vessel as far as Bf ;defreea south. Liaht winds'and fine weather were experienced to the meridian of the Cape of Good ; Elope,t which was crossed { on ' the.. 12th February. P Sew /; Uie veMel was Ucalmod -for . nearly a It

On'theiTth January spoke the ship Patriarch, Cipt. , Payne, of Aberdeen, in latitude 9 degrees 41 minuted south, and longitude 32 degrees west, bound from» ' London to Melbourne. Amongst the incidents of " :tbe>voyage-mayr.bermentionedrthefollowing f 'takeh" : from the official log book, under date 25th December,

1875: At noon day a vessel was seen on the port bow, on her beam ends. Steered up close'under her stern, to render assistance if required. Fofl"d , Tlßr . to_be - •Abandoned. — Dublin,* all masts standing,, except ,mizen top-gallant ( mast, lower main top-sail setf^The'hull looked quite fresh; Jill .the.starboard-bulwarks-being-in the water. Seeing no one one on board, and having emigrants, did not think I would be justifiedin takingebargeof her. which could easily have been done. In two days she > could not fail ti> reach Madeira herself. On the same day the crew were ordered to send aloft .the top--1 gallant yards/which had nob been sent up before, at the request of th« Plymouth Immigration This order the crfcw refused' to;carry out; at the instigation 1 of .a couple of ringleaders,.and for the sake of-peace and good .order the work was tffected by the officers . 0 f the fchip. • These ringleaders shewed throughout the same mutinous spirit, and on arrival at dnchorftge yesterday were given into.the custody of the police for a recent breach of discipline. The Brodick Castie is a fine, wholesome-looking vessel of 1 1775 tons belonging to the Castle line of Glasgow clippers, to which the Edinburgh Castle,'how in port, also belongs. The immigrants have come out under charge of Dr. Cleghorn, late of the Waimate, to whom great credit is ,'due for. his kindness and attention. The only deaths that have occured are two twin infants,'named John and Ellen McGrath, and a woman named Hannah Wilson, aged 34, who died from rheumatic fever and heart disease. 1 The passengers speak very highly of Captain Thyne, who, since the vessel's departure from London, has had much to contend against.
