THE BALTIC.

The AtiilfriCClttlit Siding, an official newspaper pub-
lished at Helsingfors, pablishes the following:

In the course of the afternoon on the 3rd instant an
English steam corvette approached the harbour of Ramo,
or Ratans, a retired place in the Abo district, and in the
Gulf of Bothnia. Biz boats moaned by seamen, marines,
and several °Scars, and armed with guns, left the maa•o4
war. One of these, in order to deceive the vigilance of the
watchmen of the port, thought proper to hoist a whit*
handkerchief, to take it oppose a deg of tram Being in•
lonised that the boots were approaching, the burgomaster
'of Ramo immediately repaired to the shore with a white
flag in his head. The English Miser asked if there
were any soldiers is the town, end on the mayor's
refusal to answer this gentles, he demanded the emends, of
all the saereheatnesa and all the goods in the harbour to be
delivered up to him. Directly afterwards the English took
to their alma, sad,. pointing their guns, set about removing
from the port both the Alps sad the goods. They eves
prepared to sat on Ire such objects as they could not carry off.
The Russian magistrate protested, but to vain, against
the bad faith of the English is =akin a false use of the
white flag. But la the midst of these acts of pills(' a de-'
Mehemet of national Chesseurs arrived ea the spot and
find a Tetley at the English. Malty of these were killed
or wounded ; the rest took to flight, abandoning all the

PARIS, TII7IIIIDAT EWING.

I am informed that two despatches received this
day at the Ministry of War contain news to the
following effect :

Yeeteriay evening (the 18th), at 9 o'clock, the Russians
made • sortie on the Balaklava side with the intention of
cutting up the English and turning the division which is
orusting against MalakholB, and loran it to raise the
siege of the tower. The Russians ware repulsed with con-
siderable ,ass. The works of approach continue. The
trenches are now bat 40 Rubes distant from the Nalakhoff
Tower.

In confirmation of the above intelligence, I notice
in the " Latest News" of the Patriot the following:

We are assured that a despatch has arrived this ;lay,
statute that yesterday evening, at about tee o'clock, the
Realises attempted another sortie t the Careening
batteries, and were vigoronaly repelled_ _

At the Bourse the Rents wee somewhat heavy to-
day, and elated se. lower, at 66fr. 5543. There was
searosly any change in railways.
The Credit Mobilier has subscribed to the loan for
the sum of 260 millions, including the subscriptions
received by the agency of Messrs. Baring, of London.
MM. de Rothschild have subscribed for sixty mil-
lions.

The Emperor yesterday recoiled General Count de
Crenneyille, who returns to Vienna. This announce-
ment, coming simultaneously witlt the news of Gene-
ral Crawford's resignation of hie htnotione as Minister
Plenipotentiary at Vienna, shows thalt no lingering
hope remains of the military cooperation of Austria
in the war.

The Pays, alluding to the statement is the Wiser
Gazette, which I cited the other day, says:
A letter, in an English jrarnals has sok today alluded
to a Mrettlar is which Count WdeweldY said to ha vs ow-
awaneed to the Pnaoh diplomatic agate that the Weetera
Powers no Mager felt themselves bound by the roar g as-
mate's. Oar private latormatice enables m to state is
the most positive manner that ao snub areal.: is in Im-
letease.
