Sift CHARLES' NAPIAR AND THE BALTIC FLEET,
—Sir Chults Napier hes addressed the following letter to
a contemporary:—" I think it would have been only cone
mon justice to publish my reply to Captain Elliott's remarks
on my saying, in my speech at the Mansion-souse that 'the
Baltic Beet was very badly mannrd, and worse disciplined.'
Everybody but Captain Elliott knew very well the Baltic
fleet was badly man- ed. I never wish to tee a fleet sent to
sea in such a state again. When we first sailed half the men
could hardly go aloft, and every sailor knows the meaning
of want of discipline, which is, simply, that men got hastily
together cannot be in a state of discipline, and every officer
is not possessed of the transcendent abilities of Capt. Elliott.
who can discipline his ship by simply hoisting his pennant,
So mach use has been made of that expression that I beg
at once to say, no ri flection was intended on the officers ;
on the contrary, is there had not been the greatest exertion
on the part of the captains and officers, and willing obedience
on the part of the men, the fleet could have returned
to England in the state it was ; and, had that fleet had an
opportunity, I will answer for it that it would have given a
good account of its opponents. Depending oa the gunnery
of that fleet, I had no fear of leaving Admiral Martin at
Nargen with a third of the force of the Russian fleet when
I was at Bomarsund, nor did I fear to lie in Baro Sound with
a third of their force, er at Nargen with halt ; and there
was nothing to binder the Russians landing at Sweaborg,
had they chosen."
LORD PALMER3TON AND me CONSTITUENTS.—
Lord Palmerston has sent the following address of thanks to
Cie electors of Tiverton :—" Gentlemen,—l request you to
accept my most sincere thanks for the honour you have con-
ferred on me by again electing me to be one of your repre-
sentaivea in parliament; and I beg, at the same time, to
assure you that I am deeply sensible of the kind considera-
tion on your part which induced you to express a desire
that I should not, on the present occasion, in a moment of
grist public Importance, &bleat myself from the perform-
ance of my official duties in London."

of Under Secretary for the Home Department. Sir Francis
Baring has been appointed to the Chancellorship of the
