NAVAL MOVEMENTS

There has not been much change in the man-of-war anchorage during the week beyond a further flitting of the vessels North. On the 7th inst. Admiral Buller left here in the despatch vessel Alacrity for Shanghai. On the following day the cruiser Narcissus left here for Corea. The iver has been brought across from Yau-and is now being commissioned, I believe, but for what purpose has not been stated, probably a short cruise. The flagship Centurion is still in dock at Hupgham.
