rm; WAR ﬁr ran EAST. DIPADTUII OF LORD RAGLAN.

Lord Raglan and his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, lett London on Monday night, by the half-past eight mail train for Dover, en route for the East. Al- though the exact time of their departure had not been made public, upwards of 300

ersons, including many ladies, had assem- bled to see them oﬂ'. The royal carriage had been prepared for their-reception, and as the train moved away from the platform, they were loudly choc d. Lord Raglan was accompanied to t e station by the members of his family, who there took an affectionate farewell. The aides-do-camp, both of his Lordship and of his Royal Highness, travel with them. The Vivid conveyed them across the Channel from Dover to Paris on Tuesday. Lord Raglan and the Duke of Cambridge paid their res- pects to her Majesty before leaving, and

they also visited the Prime Minister in

Downing-street. -nu: nuns or ciirnainos ir PARIS.

The Duke of Cambridge arrived in Paris on the ltth, and was received with all the honours due to it Prince ofthe Blood His Royal Highness, accompanied by Lord Raglan, allighted at the British linltassy, where three ourt Carriages shortly tir- rived to convey him and his suite to the Tuileries. Lord Cowley then presented the Duke to the Empcroror and the Em- press.

The Emperor, accompanied by the Duke of Cambridge, reviewed on the 12th, in the

ham do Mars, the army of Paris, the eﬂ'ective force of which amounted to 25,000 men.

scizuita or RUSSIAN SHIPS.

Two large steam-ships, all but complete, belonging to the Russian Government, have been seized this week by an officer oftho Customs on the premises ofn builder at Northﬂeet, who rejoices in the cuplioni- oue appellation of Pitcher. This getitlcinan, it seems, had commenced the uiidci-takings long before there existed the most distant idea ofa war with the Czar; but he appears to have been a shrewd fellow in his way, for he stipulated for cash remittuiices on the work no it advanced, so that, in reality, the loss will fall upon the Northern Bear, with whom we are now at war.

We cannot join in the strong missives which some of the London editors have levelled at this Pitcher-.. He noted, we think, as most men under similar circum- stances would have acted,—that is, he waited for the ripening of the pear, and opportunely chose his time for communicat- ing the fact to the authorities. He did not probably betray the Czar, his customer, to her Majesty's ollicers, but he did not dis- guise the name of his employer, nor the purpose for which the vessels were wanted; and, having secured himself, he took means to have the war steamers secured before they wont forth on their mission of destroy- ing Mr. Pitcher’s own countrymen. All that could reasonably be expected from any man Mr.Pitcher has done.

It appears, from the statements which have accompanied this transaction, that three Russian engineers super-intended the building of these two war steamers, and that, when the vessels were auﬂiciently advanced, the Russian engineers left for the United States, in order to carry out the building of other war steamers in that country. This information is very valuable, and will no doubt command the attention of the British Ambassador at Washington, who will, of course, take care that the American Government is not unconsciously made the instrument of furnishing materials of war to be used against nations with which that country is at peace.

For years past the Russians have evi- dently been preparing for the crisis which has now arrived. Enormous sums of money have been spent at home and abroad in the building and equipment of vessels of war, not required by Russian commerce nor by

‘Russian colonies, b_ut polely for carrying

out that war of aggression which has long been planned at St. Petersburg, and which the present condition of the “sick "man was deemed the Quest occasion for reali- ing. t is contest is over, it is more then probable that Sir Charles Napier

‘in the Baltic, and Admiral Dundee in the

Black Sea, will show that the most foolish policy on the part of the Russian Govern- ment wea. to invest its money in such hasssdeus property. ’ rite soseturs IN seitvts.

Vienna, A ‘I l0.—-It was known last night in the hut military circles that the ltasstsus ve vietstst the semen

treaty. They crossed the Danube at Radojevncz, above Wid in. There is no doubt that Austria will immediately occupy Scrvin with a large force. and the Danu- biaii Steam Com an have received orders to hold all their vessels at Semlin and Orsova in readiness to transport tree a for the Austrian Government. The Better- rcicliisclse Carrespondmsz conﬁrms the intel- ligence as to the signing of is protocol by the Four Powers, asserting the principles laid down by the Vienna Conference.

THE PLIITI III THE BLACK BIA.

Our dates from Vama, are to the let instant. On the 24th ult., the British squ- dron having landed the Turkish Troops, proceeded in the direction of Sahastopol.

Important news has reached Malta. by her Majcsty’s steamer Cyclops, which arrived there on the 7th from the ﬂeet. It is to the following eﬂ'cct:—Thc allied ﬂeets reached Kavarnn Bay on the 20th ult. Eight line—of-battle ships (French) are at anchor in line to the cast of Verna, ﬂanked by six steamers. Further east are ten line-of-battle ships (English), with six stoameas on their ﬂank. All the marines from the ﬂeets arc to he landed,‘ to protect Varmi. The Fury, Apollo, Cyclops ar- rived ut Knvarna on the '28th. Before the Cyclops left the ﬂeet, Admiral Dundas is reported to have made a signal “ to take burn, or destroy everything Russian.”

Our ﬂeet in the block See, their h con- siderably less powerful than that in the Baltic, is, we believe, sufficiently powerful for the work it will have to do. According to an estimate of the Portsmouth Guardian, it consists of thirty-one vessels, including eight sailing line-of-battle ships, two screw line-of-battle ships, ﬁve sailing frigates and slnope, three screw frigates and sloops, and thirteen paddle-wheel steamers. These mount no fewer than twelve hundred and seventy four guns, and carry twelve thousand six hundred and lbrty-four men. The power oftho steamers is equal to six thousand nine hundred and fifty horses,

and the hurthen of the whole is forty-nine '_

thousand eight hundred ‘and ninety-two tons.

Advices from Orsova of the 6th of April state that Ornie Pasha has received instruc- tions from Conaeetinople to undertake no iapmant operation until the arrival ofthe

Austria appears to be act‘ more in unison with the Wes- tern Powers, while Prussia leans more to Russia, although tentposizing with both parties. "

On the 9th, a protocol, re-deﬁning the intgrity of the Ottoman territory, was signed at Vienna by thegfour powers, in- cludinlg Prussia; but siiuulteneously there- with russia introduced into her mutual alliance treaty with Austria conditions and limitations which would render the treaty is dead letter, and which Austria conscqur ntly refused to accept.

Vmvxa. April 9.—.The Watderer, Dcutsclis Post, and Press. of today contain im. portiint advices from the seat of war, of which the following is a summary :—-On the 29th and 30th of March the lI.'l8dlt.p01Il at Czcrnavodn was continually bombarded b the Russian

utiboats, and the little redoubt which is on a road lendin toliirsova is said to be already in the hands 0 the Russians ernavoda is known to be on untenable position,-arid. indeed, there is some reason to feat-that General Luders has already broken through tbe Turkish line of defence ut the well of Trajan. Until now we have no particuhtrs relative to the battle at Raesovs on the 2nd, but if it. raallly took lace, it must have been the result of ,e coin ined movement, as both General Chrulelf and Gene- rnl Fngelhsrdt are said to have shared in it. The former commands in Wsllschia to the north of Kalerasch, and the latter. as has already been related, was the victor at Hirsova. At Bucharest it is considered very singular that no oﬂicial mention has been made of the ﬁve days’ battle at Tulteclia, from the 23d to the 27th. On the 25th General Utschskoﬂ‘ almost despaired of being able to take the place without it re lar siege, and this led to the report of his aving been obliged to retire to the opposite bank of the river. The corres- ndent of the Vlhnderer writes, that after the onions on the 28d had succeeded in tting posesaion of a battery “after a less of then 1500 men,” the Turks 2000 retired into the citadel, which they main- tained until the afternoon of the 27th. Durin the five days the Turks made seven sallies an inflicted on the Russians a loss men. The accounts relative to the fate of. the citadel and its breve garrison very much. There are three reports in oirculetion—-1. The garrison surrendered; 2. The Turks set the place on fire, and endeavoured to escape duirin the con- fusion ; 3. The fortvres blown upbyt e Turks. The Bucharest writer s,—-I“ Something dreadful must have occurred, for the Russians are as silent on the subject as th, are about their discoinﬂtures on the 12th, l3t , 17th, and 23d, at Oltenitaa." On the let the Russians opened a heavy tire on the Turkish strand bat- teries between Ressovs a Siiie , and it is possible enough that the vollent eeitnonsde led to the prevalent report of a battle having been fought st Ressove, in which the Russians were defeated. The reports that-General Scliilder is reperin to the river at Kelsrssoh are ully con mi . A siege train and-two rocket batteries are already opposite Sllistrie, the gates of which are sh-esdy-slosed on‘ a gen’ of 10,000 men. The commander of the fortress is the General of Ordnance, Mnshe; an the chief of the engieeerin depsrtaeem, Meheinet Be . Before we take save of the eastern end of the line of operations, it may be well to state that the ﬂeets cannot render any assis- tance at Kostendjs, as there is only seven feet of water in the port. Proceedin tip the river from Sillstris, we come to ‘Parts at, to which lace the Turks were fbrced to iretneet on the th, after having been oeetleeelly engaged with the Russians at Olteeitas from the 24th. The battles were " murderous,” and the Rue- sians were obliged to call up all their reserves before they could get rid of r valorous suellents.
