Officers and seamen of German and French men-of-war do not appear to be on friendly terms with each other. Recently tbe German corvette Albatross took her departure from Sydned for Germany. As she steamed away from Farm Cove her seamen mounted the rigging, and as the German fl3g dipped in compliment to H.M.S. Wolverene, the seamen gave three hearty cheers, and the German Band played " Home Sweet Home." The Wolverene men were quickly in the Tigging, and gave three ringing English cheers. The Albatross proceeded slowly past the stern of the French man-of-war Khin, and the French and German parted company in silence, without even so small a compliment as the dipping of their national colors on either side,
