MISCELLANEOUS,
The correspondent of the N. C. Daily News at Weihaiwei writes that the float was to sail on the 20th, probably for Yokobama. The Powerful was to remain as guardship, or the Aurora. The Barfleur was expected on the 10th, and the Powerful in a few days. The fleet was engaged in coaling from the Indo- China Co.'s steamer Onsang, and there were in harbour the Centurion, Victorious, Aurora, Bonaventure, Iphigenia. Alacrity, Rattler, Brisk, Humber, Fame, and Whiting.
