Further California News --San Francisco papers, of the 8th inst., note sales of thirty thousand gallons spirites of turpentine on the previous day at $1.15 per gallon, causing much excitement in the market. This marked change arises from the expectation that further supplies cannot be received from North Carolina; holders on the 8th asked $1.50 per gallon. Advices from the Sandwich Islands state that the British steamer Albert took formal possession, for the Queen of England, of Fanning's Island, located in latitude 30 40 N., and longitude 159 20 W., on the 8th of February.--The flag of Great Britain was raised amidst a salute of small arms and twelve-pound field howitzers. The entire ship's company officiated in the ceremonies. The harbor has been termed English harbor.
From the Pacific Squardron. --Advices from the Pacific squadron record the resignation of ten officers of the fleet. The Commander-in-Chief was about to forward a list of their names to Washington. The United States corvette St. Mary's, needing an overhauling, was bound to San Francisco. At Mare Island the newly-appointed paymaster and inspector of provisions, Mr. Charles Murray, had arrived and taken possession of his post. The officers at the station were preparing for the examination of the Navy Department a specimen of some recently-discovered timber, said to be admirably adapted for ship-building. The only man-of-war ever built in California, the steam gun-boat Saginaw, now in the East Indles, was so badly. "spoiled" that there is little likelihood of any more being put on the stocks there for the present.
