T33 RUSSIA! P03’! 0lillVAl‘l'0POIi

M. H. de Hell gives the following ac- count of the Russian naval port on the Black See, his work “Travels in the Steppes of the Caspian Sea 2"

The port of Sevustopol is us uestionuble one of the most remarkable in urope. owes all its excellence to nature, which was here without the aid of art, provided a magnificent roadsteud with ramifications, forming so many basins, admirably adapted for the requirements of a naval station. The whole of this noble harbor may be seen at once from the upper part of the town. The attention. It lies east and west, strstchin seven kilometres (four miles and three quarters) inland, with a mean breadth of I000 yards. and serves its a. station for all the active part of the fleet. It forms the medium of communication between Scranto-

of and the interior part of the peninsula. e northern shore presents only a line of cliffs of no interest, but on the southern shove the eye is detained by the fine basins formed there by nature. To the east, at the very foot of the hill on which the town stands, is South Bay, in length upwards of metres, and com letely sheltered by

high limestone cliffs. t is here the vessels are rigged and unrigged; and here, too, lies along range of pontoons and vessels past service, some of which are converted into magazines, and others into lodgings for some thousand convicts, who are employed in the works of the arsenal. Among these numerous veterans of entire] force that is almost always idle, the traveller behblds

5-! so

Paris, formerly mounting 1% guns, and w ic was, down to IBW, the finest vessel in the im erial fleet.

Beyon South Bay, and communicating with it, is the little creek in which the go- vernment is eonstructing the most consider- able works of the port, and has been engaged for many years in forming an immense dock with five distinct basins, capable of accom- rnodating three ships of the line and two frigstes, while simultaneously undergoing repairs. The original plan for this great work’ was devised by M. Rancourt, a French Engineer, who estimated the total cost at about 6,000,011) rubles.—The magnitude of this sum alarmed the government, but at the instance of Count Vorunzof the accepted the proposal of an English engineer, who asked only 2,500,0tl), and misc complete the whole within five years. The work was begun on the 17th of June, I832; but when we visited Sevastopol, some years after the first stone had been laid, the job was not half finished, and the expenses already exceeded 9,000,lI)0 rubles. The execution of the basin seems, however, to be very far from corresponding to the enor- mous expenses they have already occasion- ed, and it is strange indeed, that a weak and friable limestone should have been employed in hydraulic constructions of sun importance. The angles of the walls, it is true, are of granite or poi-phyry, but this odd association of heter-ogenoue materials conveys in itself, the severest condemnation of the mode of construction which has been ado ted.

ighly favoured as is the port of Senate-

pol with regard to the form and security of its buys, it yet labors under very serious inconveniences.—The waters swarm with certain worms that attack the ships’ bottoms, and often make them uaservicnble in two or three years. To avoid this incurable evil the government determined to fillths basins with fresh water, by changing the course of the little river, Tchemoi Retchlta, which falls into the head of the main gulf. roe equeducts and two tunnels. built like the rest of the works in chalk, and forming part of the artificial channel. were nearly com- pleted in IBII; but about the period the engineers endured a very sad discomfitufld.’ it being then demonstrated that the wars- the wanted to get rid of were produced b not in else than the muddy waters whic the Tcitsrnoi Totchka pours into the harbor.

In ISBI, when the JU revolution was threatenin to upset the vr ole status quo of Europe, a ondon journal stated in an article on the Black Sea and Southern Russia, that nothing could be easier than for a few well appointed vessels to set fire to the Imperifl, fleet in the port of Sevastopol. The article alarmed the Emperor's council to the highest de res. and orders were immediate- l issued r the construction of immense tlitlessive works.

Four new forts were constructed, making
