Before all, it is necessary to =nation that that which it has bees thoset peeper to call the preened Ruses in tne BM See, Las brims the moult of the nature I and the ei hobs nate= of the potitieal relations of the two empires bordering thereon. It was • superiority of authoh rity which Remdayzereieed ratter by the ascendancy whiff her special treaties with ht °mamas empire gave her, thee by bee maritime supremacy. It resulted from the holetiou if the Porte moots more that from its inferiority am the ems. Developed by the Maumee of eireanistances unconnected with Russia. such as the reguieration of Orem., the battle of Nevariee, the conquest of Algeria by France, the lade pendent teedeneits of the Pasha of Egypt, of the Beys of Susie sad Tripoli, which deprived the Porte of sufficiently important maritime amistaner, that inferiority was not brought on by Ramis. It had famed the object of no stipulation. It could have ceased at the will of the Porte. The topographical coolguration of the Bmphores, so fayouralte to the orgsnisatioo of en impregnable system of defence ; the possession of fortresses cud ports such as Verse, Sisepohe, Bourget, Trebisond, ho. ; the advantage of being ab.• to veep all her fortes round three contiguous baba—. AOG were, and they still are, striking advantages which the Porte possessed sad still poseesees over Russia, who, obliged to maintain aaval forces in four seas separated by immense detentes, could only give its navy in the Black Sea a restricted developmest. soterithstaading the mistrust which for twenty years pest ass been excited against Russia, the Porte shod. not maks use of its advantages, would it not be bracer, instead dseeing &danger for benell in the maritime duet-anent of Ruses, she had intuition of those which would mama ! her el sewhere, and spies% which, in time of Deed, the lora. of Russia might se • morns of defence ? Morals, es well as materially, fasts seemed to justify ' that view. People have strangely deceived themselves in Nips" he the dangers to which the Ottoman empire might lis on posed iron the Russian fleet. In affirming is his work es Southern Russia, that with bey leer, rated, it is true, at 30 vessel., Ramis could at tub oseupy Constaatiaople, Marshal Minuet has committed a double error,. on the an, head, because the Russian sae= fumes in the Black Sea can never reach that number without uniting with those of the Beltic—s, junction which is Beaman'. ; on the other, because if even so gigantic • maritime development could be effected, it would be very fsr from leading to the dangers which appear to be appre hended. That which is now passing is the Crimea would be sufficient to prove this. The real fasts are, indeed, otherwise opposed to these hypotheses. Let us take for Matinee what permed in 1833. At that epoch toe Ramis. fleet appears in the B aphides and eff-cte a descent, but ceder what ettuditious ? It is with toe consent of the Salm, and to come to his aid. Moreover, seethes itself of all its sftipoing, the Ramie'. Seer could oily transport oat that =maim from 10,000 to 12.000 men. And it will be admitted this this fora, im portant as an auxiliary, would have been entirely insuill• cleat if it bed presented itself as an enemy. Sines that time south has been veil of the develop ment of the Ration navy. Notwithstanding al that has heel mid, what do we m lean after, e twenty yeater, that is to say, in 18 63? the Raman fleet taken about fifteen days for the unbarke tins, toe transport, eel the disembarkation of a division of inleetry, that is to say, frees 18,000 to 16,000 men, from Sebastopol to Relents Kale. On taking into eonstrieratios the proximity of the 'Bul b.. establishments of Russia, 20,000 men at most can be reckoned as the number of troops far descent which the KRUM! 'Buy of the Black Sea, is its greatest develop meet, would be in a position to transport, on any given point of the Ottoman territory, in the epees of about three weeks. Is that a very great drawer? Does it justify the spore bessions which have been counived ? Is not • risk incurred, is endeavourag to amid it. of sacrificing to a chimerical deeper the true conditions of the smartly of the East and of the European equilibrium ? Dangers have many times meeaced the Ottoman Empire from other quarters than the north. An Admiral of the Sultan hes eves hese sees to lead hi. lest to his rebellious vases'. Who =awe= that (mu of this asters shall sot' agate occur ? Moreover the English and French fleets taken, not col lectively b at singly, are neither less powerful nor less dangerous thee taws of Russia. Because the maritime estabas: manta of France and England are farther cif, they are not on that account more inoffensive. Europe Is few able to watch the evolutions of the fleets that have them. By mesas of the rapidity of electric eanatunisations, they could, by setting tail from Toulon and Malta at the same time that the Raines fleet should lease Sebastopol, arrive In time seflleieet to weird eff danger from the Porte. Bet who engages that they may not one day premed themselme l with the seat celerity, whether sieg.y or collectively, before the Seraglio, as enemies of the Peru? The tepidity with which the French fleet sailed towards Salamis in 1863, shows the material possibility of this on the part of Frames. Thu threats of which M. le Lavalette made see, prove its morel possibility. As regards Breland, we will limit ousel. es as mentioning the violation of the Straits is 1819, and. pretest of tempests. Where, if its Bleck See were disarmed, would be the security against such edema.? Where the counterpoise to roust their being lightly undeitaken ? Them simple refleotioce are sufficient to show that what ever system may he adopted is revising the treaty of 1841, spirts the view of connecting the Ottoman Empire with the balance of power in Europe, the maintenance is the Black Sea of respectable naval fora s would not cote sot be of a nature ti raise serious apprehessisses e but would even be ea. of the anditioss neessary to secure, by way of counterpoise to naval forees that may happen te be in the waters of the Covent, the intact etseereaus of the stipula tions enaeluded in the interest of the European equilibrium. And let it not be objected that this would be the satiate stases of the aaalasa fro. and that, in eoesequente the tor peaduseee whisk Raba has exercised in the /Balk Sea would net geese to an sod.

Mope, without the oouwarreat authority of this amlemadoe and the French admiral ? Admiral Duadm—U I had orders from the ambasador to arms my &et, I thou'Al have cone to the French Mmiral, sod have talrl him ; and if the French admiral, Wog my eopeeioe officer, bad ordered me to move, I 'hood have goo* to the antbamodor end told him ; but it the French ed:diral mid he should not move, if I had the embasador's I Arden to do so, I should move. I The Cluirmaa—Was that the ease u well before is *Air The war broke out / Admiral Doodas—No ; ; when the war broke oat it was esethir manor. The Chairman—l think w. Underohnd ynn now. W e will now preolett on to Varna. When did yoo ecru® there ? Adm".ral Dundas—On May 11, 1864. I knew noising of the army coming to Varna. I was to take care of Sebse' to 1, and to protect the Essine. The Chairman—Do you mean by that the blockadt of the Russian ports, sad were you to blockade all the Logien ports in the Euxine ? Admiral Daodes—No; the blockade did not take place fora long time. The Cattleman—Did not ships belonging to the eaemy's fleet come out of Sebastopol ? Admiral Dendas—Very often two or three of them did. The Chairman—Did a Russian steamer on one occasion steam right up iato the Bosphorus ? Admiral Dandas—l never heard that they came so far up as the Bosphorus. Ia continuation the Admiral said—l first heard of the army going from Varna to the Crimea about the and of July. Several °Deference. took place with respect to the embarkation and landing of the army. I had one conference with Marshal St. Arnaud. I reeived no orders. I ordered the necessary boats nye .11. The English took about 2.5,000 or 30,000 mea over to the Crimea. Our ships were crowded with troops, exceptiort six or seven sail of the line, which I arranged with the French admiral ehoald be kept free in cage the busies fleet tame up. I sent Admiral Lyons to Conatentineple to obtain steam togs for landing the troops, and I weasels. fled with the engagements of Admiral liner so long as he soled in offline The cause of delay in disentharktog the troops was the breaking oat of cholera. My attention war called to the passage of Russian troop. into the Cilium through the Sea of Asoff, but it was impossible to prevent it, even with vemets of a light draught of water, Imhof to the Impracticability of the coast. He (Admiral Duda.) on the 10th of May addressed a letter to Lord Raglan, ex pressing hie opinion that Sebastopol was a second Gibraltar, and that 120,000 Russians were in the Crimes, of whom 30,000 wets in Sebastopol, that th ere were fourt een or six teen sail of the line is the harbour, and concluding the letter with a hope that hi lordship had better information than he (Admiral Dundee) had respecting Remise operations end resources. (Laughter.) Ia reply to the Chairman, the Admiral said be had not got with him the confidential correspondents between Sir James Graham sad himself referred to in the foregoing letter. Besides, if he had, he surely had a right to keep hi own lettere. Sir J. Pakington reminded witness that the Duke of Neweastle, is his examination before the committee, had stated that he (the witness) had given inaccurate informa tion as to the probable amount cf the Russian force in the Crimea. Admiral Dandies replied that in Much or April the Duke of Homemade, in a letter to Lord Raglan, said there were 46,000 men in Sebastopol, which was a greater number than he (wheels) had given. The Chairman said that did not prove that witness was more accurate than the duke. It proved rather that they were both wrong. Witness said that might be ; but he could only say he had his information from parsons whose respectability he could not doubt. To Mr. Drummond—lie was consulted about the suffi ciency of the English Toros to take Sebastopol before the army went there. He was previously asked if be hiel.elt could take Sebastopol with his own fleet? He answered that he could not—(a laugh) ; and the French admiral was preeest, and said the same. To Mr. Ellice—When the troops were at Varna, sad before the expedition to the Crimea had been determined upon, his opinion was asked by the English asthenia. reference to the expedition. The means of transport at hi disposal were sufficient for conveying the British army. beg I not for all the baggage animals, mangy of which—be believed 2,000 or 3,ooo—were left behind at Varna. At that time he had no means of obtaining additions' transports. More French troops were lauded in the Crimea by cue French fleet than English troops by the English fleet; bat the French at that time had about 16 sail of the line, whilst we had only eight. To the Chairman—ln point of fact he had nothing to do with the tramper... That was a put of the arrangements which rested entirely with Lord Raglan, Admiral Boon, and Captain Christie. He believed at that time uo more transports could be procured at Constantinople or is the Bleck Sea than were obtained, and time and distance pr, eluded their being obtained from England. A small pro. portion of tho French troops were landed in the Crimea by ships of the country. A number of small ships of different nations were at that time in the Bosphorus and the Black Sea, but the lime did not admit of their being hired and collected to assist in embarking pert of the Eaglish troops at Varna and taking them to the Crimea. To Lord Seymour—liad it been desirable to embark the army at Constantinople for the Crimea, it could not h eve been done with the same facility as at Varna, Lec cue. wh.n the troops were at Constantinople a sufficient number of boats was not available for embarking and dieembstkem them. To Sir John Pakisgton—After landing the army in the Crimea our ships returned to fetch the French cavalry. The remainder of the transports could not have gone back to , Varna for the baggage horses, because most of them were more or legs laden with ammunition, which they could not at that time land in the Crimea. To Mr. Drummond—All the sailing ships of the fleet were stationed off Sebastopol ; all the screw ships were off ffiglaklava ; and the squadron off Eupstoria. Mr. Drummond—Did not Lord Raglan protest to you oplost the army wintering in the Crimea ?• Witness was understood to answer in the negative. The Chairman—After the army disembarked, did you ever ems Lord Raglan ? Witness said—Certainly he did. Early in December he went up to the camp, and saw him there. lie continued to my that the steamers of the Meet had not sufficient coal at all times, but on the whole they were extremely well supplied. He had no complaint to make on that score. To Captain Gladstone—No representations were ever made to him about the state of the harbour at Balaklava. He placed it entirely under the control of Sir Eumund Lyoes. - To Mr. Roebuck—There was not at ell times a sufficiency of coals fur the steamen of the fleet; but he had no coin ! plaint to make on that point. Mr. Roebuck—Could you not have had a atca-a tug i i the Bosphorus for coaling the steamers in the fleet ? Witness—lf you bed had a dosen steam tugs in the Bos phorus, you could not have done it. (A laugh.) Mr. Roebuck—Did you expect Providence to 4r vile the coals ? Witness—lt wu Providence that prevented their being supplied. (Laughter.) Ti Lord Seymour—The duty of supplying the fleet with coals devolved upon Admiral Lux, and it he had not dis charged that duty witneas Lad no power to nation him. Re made no complaint at any time t.i Lord Raglan of Ad miral Boner. [The witness read here a letter written by him to Lord Ragan (es we understood), shortly ant the battle of the Alma ' relating the steps he took to in ilea the m.dical service of tbe fleet available for the wounded, to organise an ambulance corps of marines for conveyieg them down to the coast, and to provide transports for tekicg them down to Scutari.] A certain number of traesporta had been told off for that purpose immediately after the battle, but they were no' adequate in number to the emergen y, be cause be had been informed on good authority that the wounded did nut exceed 600, and be had prepared trans ports for the reception of that number; but it turned out that the wounded 'mounted to 1,600, and that gyre rise to the transports being great.y overcrowded. To General Peel—lf Captain Christie, who had the con trol of the transports, had bad the smallest idea that so large a number of men were to be tales down to Scutari, he would have made adequate preparations; but who ever dreamt of carrying such a number of men away two or three days after the army had landed in the Crimea? To Mr. Ellice He received orders from home, or from Lord Raglan, to prepare transports for the reception of the sick and wounded. To Sir John Banmer—The sunken ships at the entrance to Sebastopol did aot p the English fleet going into the harbour, because the fleet could slaloms the army had got there before them Mr. Roebuck—Did you receive orders from the Admi ralty respecting the blockade of the Entine ? Witnem—l did ; but U you sok me one word about the blockade of the Ermine then 1 must speak of the French. (A laugh.) Mr. Roebuck—Then you will blockade me. (Laughter ) To Lord Seymour—On the whole, the fleet was well &applied with provisions, bat not with fresh meat. Mr. Drummond — It Isle been stated that all the misfor tunes might have been avoided if the troops had been landed at Kerteb. Witness—l offered to take IT , rtelt with a force of 3,000 Imen, and they could sot spare them to me. What shi , iimold di, we m do;old but we had no marines on board. ii Mr. Drummond — lt has been said that the harbour at BaTaila;a oar contradictory ; if it was true at all, it was not the lash of 6, tptaia Christie? WI tnms—The place was a ditch, you know; and after a gimat crowd of ships came in, it became of course much worse but Captain Christie wee not to blame. He bed mama ca• keep no'more ships to the harbour than were an lading there. Captain Christie is a good steady dicer, and a m i r y Q uiet, honest man, and works well. D rat ootond—But not having enough of the devil ir. h e p e a been in the habit of using fits' language. ("No, no," frt.= several of the committee.) Witness: Oh, no; I am afraid you mean =odor man.

THE ARMY BEFORE MR. ROEBUCK'S COMM' t Yestorday the committee commenced their further inquiry into the subject nutter of the administration of the Ordeals., by selling Mr. Wood, secretary to the Board of Ordnance &nisi.* last 18 mostbs, sad for 60 years in the service. Whim ill MaseerGeseral (Lord Raglan), he said, was shiest. the Lieatemantedeneral was appointed is his place and per formed the duties of the Master-General, whose appoint; Aunt was undo: act Geo. 11. He was not aware of say pa ginate intionventesoe arising from the absence of the MesterHoneral. It had not been wind for one member of the board to perform all the duties of the board legally ; but when no other member of the beard was present one member bad authority to transmit the general buinese. Witness brought matters before the hosed, and kept a record of all that was done. Formerly copious minutes used to be kept, but now only on cartels transactions and on matters that involved a priaeiple. The Master-General had these minutes placed before him, and could reverse the proceedings of the general board. The iiieutenant-General had the same superintending power ea l , the Muter-General on all military subjects, but not with unmans to the board, and he could not reverse the beard's decision; so that the power that was complete in the Mu ter-General become divided in the Lieutenant , General. All mitten relating toneless would be brought airier by witness before the board, or referred to the store amount offices ; sad nothing was done in the way of carrying out directions from the Minister of War without an order from the board. He could not say whether, when these directions were given, a minute was always mi:de of them; but there was a record of the more important ones, sod be, es secretary, in a great measure judged of what was important or not. If the shell foundry at Woolwich was contmeueed before the matter came before the board, and before the action of the board bed commenced, it was irregular. The minute of the board was put on the paper on which dirsetions were gives, and signed by the members of the board. It would be • veep peculiar cue if the board aocep:ed • tender for any poetics of works that wee not already approved by itself; and whoa works were decided on, officers of the Ordnance prepared plans, which were submitted to the board, end received their signature of approval. Daring the length of time ha bad been in the service he knew of a large public building being eotamenced without the sanction of the board and of the Mar er 0 I. The minutes contained a record of who nee • present at the board meetings, and it would be sees from them who were present last autumn. Formerly the minutes were kept at gloat length, but not so diffusely new. Sir J. Pekington Were questions decided by • majority of the board ?—Yes. If there was only one mem. bee in town the contract would have to be sent to the absent memben in the country, but a tender could be accepted by one member of the board ; and, In het, a large wont:set might be entered into by one member elan ; but the Board of Ordnance would be responsible, though this in reality was • legal question he could not properly answer. Bear Admiral Deans Dundu, formerly in command of the Binh Sea fleet, was then examined. The Chairman asked the gallant admiral whether the Admiralty, on his setting sail, gave him any conception of th• maritime strength of the rival Russian power? Admiral Dundere-They gave me • roughish statement; an old one, but not enfant one. The Chairman—But did you not know its strength better when you got into the Black Sea? Admiral Dundas—Not • bit of it. (Laughter.) I ap plied to the Ambanador at Constantinople, and he east me jut such another as I had from the Admiralty—worth no more then that. The Chairmen—But had not the ambassador • large isles, blishmast of attaches, and dames, and consols, frogs mimes the information could be got ? Admiral Dundas—Not before Sebastopol ; only is the Black Sea. For the tint three weeks of my cruise, I in gaited of the consuls in the Dardanelles, and Boding I wanted imformition, I wrote a letter to Lord Stratford, the ambassador, suggesting that he should allow a Maltese interpreter to go to Sebastopol, to see what was going on there, and what their fleet wee like ; hut I received no answer from the ambassador. I then sent Captain Drum aged to the ambassador, and he stated that there was a doubt or difficulty en the part of the ambassador about erne' the Maltese mut • passport, and they both returned to me. Mr. Drummond—ls it use, as told to the committee, that you bad at any time stated the, as there were two Revision ships being repaired at Portsmouth, sad that as you had a ship with • hole in her bottom, lon ted she should be sent ism Sebastopol to be repaired ? (Laughter.) Before Admiral Dairies could answer, Lord Seymour asked that the room might be cleared. On madminion, utter about • quarter of an hour, the question was not put &pie. and Lord Seymour said, it had been stated by the Duke of Newcastle to the committee, when salted what steps were taken by Admiral Daisies to acquaint himself with the state of the fleet at Sebastopol , that the Retribution went on that minion on one occasion, and obtained • very clever sketch of the place, and that that was the only step that was taken. Is that answer correct or not? Admiral Daudet—lt is cornet so far as the Rotribudie is ausierned, but not so far se lam concerned. In acidities to pesposiag sending the Maltese interpreter, I endeavoured daring my star at Constantinople to collect informatics Made. to the Crimea and anemia; but my inquiries eoon. corsiag the fleet in Sebastopol were not attended with ass • names. sad I think I was hindered in obtaining this iallsemeiss by backwardness on the past of the authorities.
