THE BALTIC FLEET.

DANTzic, May 18.—The mail from the fleet
arrived here last night by the Driver, Commander
Gardner. You have probably received the despatch
containing the chief part of the intelligence she
brings, but a few details may be added to com-
plete it.
on Riga, has commenced the actual
blockade of that port by capturing eight Russian
merchant vessels. These ships were receiving their
cargoes on board outside the Bar of the Duna, the
creek or river that runs up to Riga, probably to
enable them to get out to sea quicker than they could
have done had they to cross the Bar loaded. They
appeared to have felt secure from any attack, for
the shore boats continued to bring goods on board
after the English steamers were in dangerous vici-
nity. At last, but just too late, the signal was
made on shore warning them of the peril of their
position. Whether it was misunderstood is uncer-
tain, but instead of putting back into the harbour,
the Russian masters stood out to sea, running, as
it were, into the very jaws of the lion, for a little
manoeuvring effectually cut off their retreat, and
the vessels were all taken. The English fleet is
divided and stationed at different points of the
coast—at Hango, Nargen, the mouth of the Duna,
and at Revel.

At the moment the Driver was leaving Revel
the Russians had hoisted a flag of truce on shore,
but Captain Gardner could not stay to ascertain
the reason.

There has been an unfortunate collision between
the Tartar and the Imperieuse, one of the finest
vessels of the fleet. The Tartar las lost her main-
mast, and both ships are so mush damaged that
they are compelled to return to E (gland for repairs.
Admiral Dundas has personally reconnoitred
the Forts of Sweaborg.
The French fleet, consisting of t.iree line of battle
ships and a corvette, were, on th) 16th inst., still
lying in Kiel harbour ; they had eft their original
anchorage, and had moored close t$ the town, closer
than ever Danish or foreign line o! battle ship had
moored before. They were busily ingaged taking in
coals, and it was believed wouldromain there till
Sunday next. Admiral Penaud vaited on General
von Krogh, the commander of the garrison in Kiel,
on the 15th inst., who returned tl.e visit the follow-
ing day in the Hecla.
Letters and papers from the Rissian Baltic pro-
vinces make frequent mention of the English
cruisers seen off the coast. . _

Advices from Helsingfors, date April 27th, state
that the stories of ships having crrived there with'
goods as -far back as March 22 were entirely un-
founded, seeing that at that tip)( the ice was thick

It is expected that the huts and stables for cavalry and
artillery horses at the camp of Afdershott will be ready

JAPAN.

Mr. WARNER wished to ask the First Lord of the
Treasury whether any privileges of trade with Japan.
had recently been acquired by Russia or the United
States of America ; and if so, whether her Majesty's
iiovernment had secured equal privileges for British
subjects ?

Lord PALMERSTON, in answer to the question of
the hon. member, said that Admiral Stirling had con-
cluded in the autumn of last year a treaty with Japan.
That treaty provided that ships of this country
should be allowed to put into port in Japan
for the purpose of repair, but no commer-
cial treaty bad been entercd into with that
country, except that all the ports that were
opened to other nations were to be free to England. He
wag not aware that any spec;al treaty bad been con-
cluded-between Russia and Japan, but he knew that the
treaties entered into with this country were similar with
those entered into with every country except China and
Hunan:4.

AUSTRIA.

A letter from Vienna, of the 17th, in Voss's
Gazette of Berlin, says :--c. The plenipotentiaries
have resumed within the last few days their con-
ferences with Baron de Hess, and it is said that the
subject under discussion has been the route which
the French troops are to take in order to reach
Austria. It is thought in 'diplomatic circles that
the Grand Duke of Baden would not oppose the
passage of French troops through his territory ; and
they might then cross the Lake of Constance, and
so arrive without difficulty • in the very heart of
Austria. 'Biron de Bourqueney had- yesterday a
lOng conference with Count Duol, in. which the

address of the Poles at Paris to the Emperor of
the French was spoken of. Austria has not made
any representation or complaint on the subject,
but the French Government has taken the initia-
tive, and given such explanations as to completely
deprive the publication of that document in- the
Ilioniteur of the character of a demonstration
against Austria."

STRICTURE of the URETHRA : its Rational
Treatment and Prompt Cure.

By F. B. COURTE.I*TAY,
Member of the Royal College of surgeons of England.
" We believe Mr. Courtenay's experience in the treatment of stric-
ture durin4 the last twenty years has equalled, if, indeed, it has not
surpasseol, that of any of his contemporaries. It is, therefore, no
meter of sm i.r!se that he should enjoy the reputation of being a
most dexterous and skilful manipu ator with urethral instruments ;
and when it is remembered that the lamented Liston used to assert
that the introduction of Instruments through a stricture which had
previously been impermeable to them, was the most difficult in the
whole range of surgical operations, it must be no slight source of
gratification on Mr. . 'ourtenay's part to have achieved the reputation
he has In this res,ect ; and for our part, with the knowledge we have
of his experience, we know of no man to whose care we would with
greater confidence entrust t he treatment of a severe case of stricture
of the urethra."—Medical Circular.

The Wye, screw steamer, belonging to the com-
pany, broke down off St. Lucia on the 23d of
April. The mails for Barbadoes were ix consequence
sent up by a sailing vessel, who, on finding the
Prince at Barbadoes, despatched her to finish the
route. This circumstance was the cause of delay
to the Tay, who had to wait at St. Thomas seven
clear days after the regular sailing time to enable
the Prince to bring her mails up.

RUSSIA.

We have received the St. Petersburg journals of
the 13th inst.

The Intalido .Russe publishes the followingl—
" Aide-de-Camp General Prince Gortschakoff
despatcn, via li.lett, dated oe-
bastopol, 26th of April (Bth May).
" From the 24th to the evening of, the 26th of April
(from the 6th to the Bth of May), nothing of importance
took place at Sebastopol. The fire on both sides is mo-
derate ; our daily loss is small.
"The enemy's fleet which left on the 21st of April
(3d of May) went as'far as within sight of Kertcb, and
then returned to Sebastopol.
" It was observed that a portion of the troops on board
were landed at Kamiesh Bay.
•

"Nothing of importance has occurred on other points
of the peninsula."

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

A letter from Bucharest of the 9th gives some de-
tails as to the facts which have induced General
Coronini, the officer in command of the Austrian
forces, to proclaim martial law in the Principalities.
It says
" The numerous arrests which hate taken place here
during the past month appear to have been caused by
the discovery of a vast conspiracy organised by some
Hungarian emigrants, in concert with a certain number
of revolutionists. It is said that all this has been done
at the instigation of Russia, with a view to excite a
movement against the order of things established since
the return of the hospodar into Wallachia; it is said
also that attempts have been made to lead away from
their duty the Austrian troops of occupation: All the
interrogatories undergone by the persons arrested have
been perfectly secret, and the persons set•at liberty have
been warned not to speak of what has occurred. In
consequence, scarcely anything has transpired abroad.
But owing to what has come to light, Count Coronini has
published an order of the day declaring martial law
established."

THE NEW FOREST.

The Earl of MALMESBURY rose to call the atten-
tion of the Government to the incendiary fires which I
had lately taken place in and adjoining the :New Forest.
The noble lord entered at length into the subject, and
blamed the Government for not at,tending to it..
Earl GI ANVILLE said that the attention of the,
Government had been dra.vn t) the subject, and
that every means would be taken to remedy the evil
complained of by the noble earl.
After a few words from the Earl of MALMESBURY and
Lord CAMPBELL the .übject dropped.

AUSTRIA.

A letter from Vienna, of the 17th, in Voss's
Gazette of Berlin, says The plenipotentiaries
have resumed within the last few days their con-
ferences with Baron de Hess, and it is said that the
subject under discussion has been the route which
the French troops are to take in order to reach
Austria. It is thought in diplomatic circles that
the Grand Duke of Baden would not oppose the
passage of French troops through his territory ; and
they might then cross the Lake of Constance, and
so arrive without difficulty in the very heart of
Axistriar. Baron de Bourqueney had yesterday a
long conference with Celia Duel, in which the

THE IRISH SOCIETY.

M'MAHON wished to ask the Chief Secretary
for Ireland whether it was his intention to bring in a
bill this session to carry out the recommendation of the
commissioners appointed to inquire into the state of the
Corporation of London, that the Irish Society be dis-
solved, and its charter repealed by act of Parliament,
and its property vested in a new set of trustees, to be
appointed by the Lord Chancellor of Ireland ?
-Sir G. GREY could not positively state the course to
be adopted, as it would very much depend upon the
course the house thought proper to pursue with respect
to the Metropolitan Management Bill.
CONSTABULARY FORCE (IRELAND.)
Mr. H. HERBERT wished to ask the Chief Secre-
tary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, when the
annual statement of the amount. of constabulary force
employed in each county in Ireland on the Ist day of
January, 1855, pursuant to the act 6 Will. 4, c. 13, s.
57, would be presented to the house. Whether the at-
tention of the Chief Secretary had been called to the
injustice inflicted on certain counties in Ireland by the
allocation of the constabulary force according to the
schedule of the act 11 and 12 Vic., c. 72. And, whe-
ther it was the intention of the Government to take any
steps towards a more just allocation of the force, in pro-
portion to the area and population of the several coun-
ties of Ireland ?

Mr. HORSIIAN could give no positive answer upon
the question. All he could say was that the subject was
under the consideration of the Government.
CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

Captain SCOBELL was anxious to know from the
Secretary of State for the Colonies, whether, now that
the colony of the Cape of Good Hope was in the enjoy-
ment of a representative constitution, it had been or was
intended to be arranged that the colonists should here-
after pay the cost of their own military protection.
Lord J. RUSSELL was in hopes that he should be
able to lay upon the table of the house on an early day
the papers relative to the subject alluded to by the gal•
lant captain.

Sir B. HALL said that, with reference to the latter,
he would undertake arrangements should be made to
carry out the noble lord's views.
On the suggestion of Mr. WILKINSON,
Sir B. HALL said he should have no objection to in-

were not inclined to do certain works, it should be in
the power of the General Board, if it was thought ne-
cesqary, to carry them on.
The clause was then agreed to.
