THE ADVANCED SQUADRON OF THE
BALTIC FLEET.

Nyborg, Great Belt, April D.
We had a good passage to the Scaw, having rounded
that point on the third day, when Captain Yelverton, in
the Arrogant, 46, was detached with the Esk, the
Tartar, and the Cossack, under his orders, to proceed to
Elsinore and Copenhagen, but, meeting with the ice
before reaching the latter place, he did not get beyond
Landscrona, where his squadron is confined by the ice.
The Imperieuse, with the Euryalus and the Conflict,
proceeded towards the Great Belt, and arrived off Reef
Ness on Sunday afternoon, the Ist inst. The former
ship touched the ground. off that point, but came off
again without the slightest injury. On the 3d a great
accumulation of ice surrounded the ships, and, in order
to escape being drifted away by it, the three ships were
removed to Seiro Bay, where they remained till the
morning of the 9th. On the 7th the Conflict was sent
towards Nyborg to report the state of the ice, and on
reaching that place found it breaking up, and a southerly
current has since drifted it into Kiel Bay. Yesterday
having been unfavourable from snow and sleet for
moving the ships, we all got under way this morning at
8 o'clock, and arrived at this anchorage soon after noon.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S.—MoNDAY.

A scanty attendance, most of the members having left
town for the York meeting; the business that was trans-
acted was consequently on a very limited scale ; never-
theless, enough was done to thicken the mystery which
surrounds St. Hubert for both Two Thousand and the
Derby. Although backed for the former event for nearly
2501. at 2 to 1, still the outlay had not the slightest im-
proving effect. 1,000 to 500 was subsequently offered,
and even money was betted that Claret and Kingstown
beat him in their places.
For the Derby the opposition against him was carried
on with increased energy. The whole or any part of
4,800 to GOO was repeatodly offered to bo laid. At last
Rifleman would have been backed against him in their
places for 500 even.
De Clare held a very distinct lead as first favourite, 7
to 1 being taken about him ; 10 to 1 was betted to a
small amount against Rifleman ; 12 to 1 taken to 1001.
