A letter from Odessa 'of the 7th, in the Danube
of Vienna, says t---' The Governor-General ad
interim has received orders to make arrangements
for sending into the government of Charriow the
persons confined in the prisons of Bessarabia.. In
.like manner, the Prisoners in the government of
Kherson are to be removed into that of Woronesch.
General Wagner, in command of the corps of Theo-
dosia, writes word that the hospital of that town,
containing 300 beds, is altogether too small to re-
ceive all the wounded soldiers that have been of
late stit there. In consequence, lie , has been
obliged to take measures for providing accommo-
dation for 3,000 patients."

THE BALTIC FLEET.
OFF NARGEN ISLAND, .MAY 15.
The, Itnperiew.4e sails to-day for England with.
invalids from the fleet and to repair damages. She
is ordered to. Sheerness, where I presume there
will be an inquiry into the cause of the late colli-
sion. She has supplied nearly the whole of her
stores and provisions to the ships.of the fleet.. The
ships here at present consist of the Doke of Wel-
lington, the Royal George, the Cißsar, the Nile,
the James Watt, the Exmouth, the Majestic, the
Cressy, the Hogue, the Colossus,.the Ituperieuse,
the Euryalus, the Amphion, the EAk, the Merlin,
the Driver, the Firefly, the Lightning, and the
Magicienne, which arrived yesterday from Elsi-
nore ; also a contract steamer, with bullocks, from
Messrs. Reynolds and Deacon.
• H.M.S. —, Revel Roads, May 13.
We have been following the ice all the way up
and anchored here eight days after the roads were
cleared. Our flying squadron have some time ago
effected a blockade, and I am happy to say 10 to 15
prizes have already been made, chiefly by the
. Archer and the Geyser, off Riga.
Tile state of health on board, I am sorry to say,
is very had. We have all sorts of tillness in the
ship, and amongst others small-pox—f )iir officers
and 12 men infected by it ; besides 6.) to 70 yu
the list for other things.
At Revel the people are all on the alert. Thirty
thousand men are quartered in the town. The ladies
and children have taken to the country, and every
house owner has been compelled to lay in provisions
for six months. There are no men (S war here. The
fleet or at least the greaterportion of the divis;on last
year stationedatSveaborg haseffectedajunction with
the one at Cronstadt, evidently after our departure
last Nov., as the ice still covers the upper part of
the Gulf. . The Commander in Chief has already
been beyond Sveaborg, and though we left England
a month later than last year we are in these waters
ten days earlier than Sir Charles Napier's squad-
ron. We like our new admiral much.
We land daily at Nargen Island, and have games
at cricket. We had a match yesterday amongst
" Dukes, Exmouths, and Royal Georges." One
side made 151, the other 110, in two innings.
, We proceed to Faro Sound in a day or two.
Imperieuse and Tartar have been in contact with
each other, and the former carried away the Tartar's
mainmast And mizeutopmast, and her own bow-
sprit and cutwater—each so much damaged as to
be compelled to go home. '

Tho St; Petersburg Gazette announces that an
order from the Military Governor of S. Peters-
burg declares Cronstadt in a state of siege, and no
person is allowed to enter the town unless on duty,
or provided with a permit from the Military Go-
vernor of Cronstadt.

A letter from Frankfort, of the 17th, in the
Rhine Gazette, says :—" A new Austrian note has
just been despatched to the German States, declar-
inc., that Austria remains faithful to the alliance of
the Western Powers, but that the Cabinet of
Vienna has not given up the hope of seeing peace
re-established. It is said that the question of mo-
bilisation is again brought forward in this de-
spatch."

THE PROSECUTION OF THE WAR.-MR.
DISRAELI.

The following are the precise terms of the notice
placed on the books of the House of Commons last even-
ing, by the Right Hon. Member for Buckinghamshire,
and for the discussion of which Mr. Layard has con-
sented to give way by postponing his own resolution :
"That this house caiinot adjourn for the recess without
expressing its dissatisfaction with the ambiguous language
and uncertain conduct of her Majesty's Government in, ro-
ference to the great question of peace or war; and that,
under these circumstances, this house feels it a duty to de-
clare that it will continue to give every support to her Ma-
jesty in the prosecution of the war, until her Majesty ghall,
iu conjunction with her allies, obtain for this country a safe
and honourable peace."
