THE BALTIC.

A letter from Berlin, of Nov. 21, emanating from
Russian sources, and put forth for obvious pur-
poses, has gone the round of divers journals, to the
effect that a squadron of 14 or 15 Russian steamers
had put out from Cronstadt and Sweaborg, and
pushed down the Gulf of Finland as far as Dagoe,
and this without encountering any of the British
Equadron left under Capt. Watson to watch those
parts. Now, it is not impossible that one or two Rus-
sian steamers may have had the courage to sally forth,
and scud from one place to another, as a sort of
bravado. But a squadron no more dare to run
down to Dagoe, or leave sight of harbour, than to
sail direct for the North Sea. Captain Watson
and his squadron are still up in the gulf, but may
be expected to be withdrawn in A few days, if
the ice has well set in. We have, in fact, already
passed the average period which the experience of
centuries has shown to be that when the Nova and
all creeks and inlets are hard frozen. Meantime
Sir Charles's squadron rides quietly at Kiel, where
they are abundantly supplied with fresh meat and
vegetables, and where, to the great satisfaction of
merchants and tradesmen, the officers and crews
freely spend their money. The health of the crews
is all that can be desired.

novitz, appears in the Presse :
"KISCHENEFT, Nov. 17.—The Grand Dukes Nicholas
and Michael have returned to this city from Sebastopol.
It is probable that the Emperor himself will come here is
the month of December. It is expected and feared that
Omar Paella is on the point of making an inroad into Bes-
sarabia. An attempt was made to bring into circulation
a proclamation published by Dervish Pasha on the sub-
ject of the invasion, but the Russian authorities managed
to lay hands on all the copies. The Russians have at
present 80,000 men of all arms in Bessarabia."

port in five transport ships for Balaklava, taking
with them 20 heavy guns which had been brought
from Gallipoli. They we're followed the next day
by 2,000 Turks and 18 guns.
The Lloyd of Vienna states that the proposition
of Russia to negotiate with Austria on the basis of
the four points has been rejected by the latter,
since she cannot negotiate alone upon those points
which have been laid down by the four Powers of
the Conference of Vienna' but must refer the Czar
to those Powers, if he is desirous of accepting
them.
