THE BALTIC FLEET.

SHEERNESS, Dec. 18.—By a telegraphic despatch
received yesterday afternoon, the Cressy, Capt. R.
L. Warren, was ordered to be taken into dock to
have her bottom examined, for the purpose of ascer-
taining the injuries she probably sustained from
striking the ground on her voyage from Nargen to
Kiel. Theremoval of her powder, shells, provisions,
stores, arc., commenced at an early hour this morn-
ing, and the utmost activity is displayed by the
officers to get her sufficiently lightened, so that
she may be warped into the fitting basin ;
and thence to the dry dock by Wednesday or
Thursday next, at which time the height of the
tides will have attained a maximum. Her refitting,
if properly effected, must occupy two or three
weeks, owing to the long list of defects which have
been sent into the authorities. In the event of her
services being required for the conveyance to the
Crimea of reinforcements, it is expectid that short
Ileave of absence will be granted to such officers and
melt who can be spared during the period she is
under the hands of the Dockyard.
The Majestic, Captain Jas. Hope, C. 8., steamed
into harbour yesterday at 11 a.m., saluted the flag
of Vice-Admiral Gordon, and having taken up
the moorikgs assigned to her, unbent sails, &c.
The Royal George:l2o, and Euryalus, 50, are daily
expected to arrive here ; the latter is to proceed to
Chatham to refit. Lieut. Christopher, first of the
Waterloo, flag-ship, is promoted to the rank of
Commander.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTE RSA LL'S—MONDAY.
Subscribers mustered numerously, and business exhi-
bited a marked improvement. Some of the investments
on the Derby were to a large amount, and two or three
important changes were produced. At the commence-
ment, 11 to 1 was taken to 2001. about De Clare ; but
the silent indifference with which the taker heard the
same odds repeatedly offered afterwards at length in
duced two or three bookmakers to try the effect of a
Point more—their offers were then caught up with avi-
dity, until he had increased his investments to upwards
of 5001. The movement was sufficiently significant,
and, after a brief pause, De Clare became distinctly the
leading favourite, 1,000 to 100 being taken twice.
Meanwhile 500 even was betted on him against Grrecu-
lus Esuriens, and 11 to 1 was currently offered against
the latter "outright." St. Hubert was backed at 12
and 11 to 1, and had an advancing tendency at the close ;
12 to 1 was taken to 2001. about The Lord of the Isles,
and 15 to 1 to 2001. about Rifleman ; Oulston, close
up to him, was firm, notwithstanding the support
which was given to St. Hubert; 1,000 to 45 was
taken about Wild Dayrell; 20 to 1 to 3001. about Poly-
dore ; 40 to 1 in fifties about Aurifer ; and 1,000 to 15
about The Bison. The quotations at the close were as

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

The Journal de St. Petersbourg quotes a cor-
respondence from Jassy, Nov. 25, which speaks of
a Turkish force concentrating at Romani (near
Jassy), of the strength of 40,000 men, and destined
to cross the Pruth. hi s must be the corps d'armee
under Sadik Pasha. The Turks seem to be ex-
tremely active in Moldavia in procuring the expul-
sion of all individuals suspected of connivance or
even sympathy with the enemy. It was at Omer
Pasha's request that Prince Ghika ordered the expa-
triation of the three Princes Moruzi and of Colonel
Singuroff, giving them only four days' notice for
their departure. The applications of their relatives •
to Graf Coronini on their behalf remained fruitless,
the General informing them that it was an affair in
which he could not take any part. The population
of Jassy and the neighbourhood make great com-
plaints of the lawlessness of the Austrian soldiery,
but these complaints do not contain any imputation
against the superior authorities as ordering it, •or
even conniving at it. The Austrians, however,
have not as yet paid for any of the supplies of pro-
visions, &c., that have been delivered to them by
the local government of Moldavia, but nevertheless
require the minutest things to be supplied to them,
even down to pens and ink, and sticks for beating
clothes.

Dervish Pasha returned to Bucharest from Jassy
on the 28th ult., and on the same day Colonel
Simmonds, an English officer of Engineers attached
to the Generalissimo, left Bucharest for Sebastopol
with despatches from Omer Pasha. Prince Stirbey
has of late, in consequence of representations made
by the Turkish authorities, dismissed a number of
officials suspected of a leaning to the Russians ; and
from the same reason the Spathar Cheresko had
given in his resignation, which was accepted with
great regret by the Prince.

weeks, owing to the long list of defects which have
been sent into the authorities. In the event of her
services being required for tho conveyance to the
Crimea of reinforcements, it is expected that short
leave of absence will be granted to such officers and
men who can be spared during the period she is
under the hands of the Dockyard.

POWTSMOUTH, Dee. 18.—Vice-Admiral Sir Charles
Napier, K.C.8., disembarked from the Duke of Wel-
lington in the Fire Queen steam-tender at Spithead,
shortly before nine o'clock this morning, and, with
(lag at the fore, steamed up to this harbour. When off
the saluting battery lie left the Fire Queen in the Port-
Admiral's barge, and was steered to the town sally-port,
alongside the Victoria-pier. Notwithstanding, the severe
inclemency of the weather (it. had been blowing bard all
night, and raining heavily all morning), and the early
hour of disembarking, a large concourse of the inha-
bitants of Portsmouth assembled on the Victoria-pier
(which was handsomely dressed in flags in token of wel-
come), and on the walls of the garrison, •to greet S:r
Charles. These increased in numbers after he landed,
and they cheered him most vociferously as he passed up
the town on his way to the Port Adiniral's, where he
breakfasted. Information of his arrival having been
last night sent to Merchistoun-hall, Lady Napier and
Colonel Napier arrived early this forenoon, at the George
Hotel, to meet the Admiral, who left Portsmouth fur
the Admiralty by the 4.25 train on the South-Western
Railway. The gallant Admiral looked in good health
and spirits. Merry peals were rung from the parish
church bells in honour of his safe return.
The gallant Admiral arrived in London last eyening

the adaptation, with the most absolute perfection and success, of
CHEMICALLY-PREPARED WRITE INDI RU PIIER as a lining
to the ordinary gold or bone frame. The extraordinary results of
this application may be briefly noted in a few of their most promi-
nent features, as the following !—All sharp edges are avoided ; no
springs. wires, or fastenings are required ; a greater increased free-
dom of suction is supplied ; a natural elasticity hitherto wholly un-
attainal-Ac: and a fit, perfected with the most unerring accuracy, are
secured, while from the soaness and flexibility of the agent em-
ployed, the greatest support is given to the adjoining teeth when
ioose, or rendered tender by the absorption of the gums. The acids
of the mouth exert T o agency on the chemically-prepared White
India-rubber, and as it is a non-conductor, fluids of any temperature
may with thorough comfort be imbibed and retained in the mouth,
all unpleasantness of smell or taste being at the same time wholly
provided against by the peculiar n attire of its preparation.

SHEERNESS, Dec. 18.—By a telegraphic despatch
received yesterday afternoon, the Cressy, Capt. R.
L. Warren, was ordered to be taken into dock to
have her bottom examined, for the purpose of ascer-
taining the injuries she probably sustained from
striking the ground on her voyage from Nargen to
Kiel. Theremoval of her powder, shells, provisions,
stores, &c., commenced at an early hour this morn-
ing, and the utmost activity is displayed by the
officers to get her sufficiently lightened, so that
she may be warped into the fitting basin ;
and thence to the dry dock by Wednesday or
Thursday next, at which time the height of the
tides will have attained a maximum. Her refitting,

first time, and ordered to be read a second time to-morrow.
Mr. DlSRAELl—Concluding that the printed copies of
this bill will be in the hands of hon. members to-morrow
morning, I shall, for the sake of facilitating public business,
not object to the bill being read a second time to morrow
evening ; but, in saying this, I shall be sorry for the nobl9

and to Lieut. F. Maxse, 21st Regiment, A.D.C.
to Major-General the Earl of Cardigan, to proceed
to England for the recovery of their health.
Nov. 30.—Assistant-Commissary Archer and
Deputy-Assistant Commissary-Generals Selby and
Marsh have joined the staff of this army, and
Drs. Dunlop, Longhead, and Paleologus have
been attached to the 9th Regiment until further
order. Between our pickets and Sebastobol, and
also within our pickets, there are numbers of bat
horses strolling about, and many stray animals
have been taken care of by officers who found them
starving. There is to be a general restoration,
judging from the following order :—" A number of
mules, horses, and mule carts, having been aban-
doned by Turkish and Maltese drivers during the
late hurricane and bad weather, and many of these
being in possession of regiments, detachments, or
others, the Commander of the Forces desires that
they may be immediately sent to the commissariat
office of the nearest division, who will cause the
same to be returned to the transport depot with-
out delay." There has evidently been some scru-
tiny about the rations of the " Bonno Johnnies,"
as a new regulation has come out to the following
effect :—" The ration of Turkish troops serving
with the British army is to be 11b. of biscuit, 5 oz.
rice, and every 30 men will have 11b. of Turkish
butter ; when fresh meat is issued, the ration is to
be 11b. of biscuit, 2 oz. of rice, and alb, meat."
DECEMBER I.—Nothing of particular importance
has occurred throughout the day. A French
officer kindly gave me the following order, which I
could not send by the last mail on account of the
severity of the weather. It is a document of the
greatest interest.

RUSSIA.

FRANCE.

PARIS, SUNDAY.
The following despatch has been received here :
" CONSTANTINOPLE, Dm. 7.
" Omer Pacha has embarked for the Crimea
with the greater part of his army.
" Ismail Pacha commands the Turkish troops on
the Danube provisionally.
" Prince Napoleon has had a relapse, and cannot
yet rejoin his division."
The Constitutionncl, in an article treating of the
alleged acceptance by Russia of the four guarantees,
says :—" In reality to accept the four guarantees
as the starting point of the negotiations does not
constitute any engagement on the part of Russia.
It merely amounts to saying that Russia took the
four guarantees as the maximum of the demands
made by the Allies, reserving the power of debat-
ing them,
and of getting them diminished in the
course of the negotiations. It is not thus that the
acceptance of the four guarantees ought to be un-
derstood in order to become a serious concession.
The Russian note of the 28th November—and the
conduct of Austria proves it—does not constitute
an overture of peace, and cannot serve as the basis
of negotiations. Between not announcing- reserves
and sacrificing them there is a difference tote cwfo."
The Monitcur publishes the following report
from M. Baroche, acting as Minister of Finance in
the absence of M. Bineau, who is ill, relative to
the division by chapters of the credits of the Budget
of 1855 :
" Sire—The law of finance of June 22, 1854, opened
the credits necessary for the expenses of 1855. Con-
formably with art. 12 of the Senatus Consult= of Dec.
25, 1852, these legislative credits were only fixed by
Ministries and an imperial decree, after the council of state
had been consulted, was to divide them by chapters
according to the wants of each branch of the service. I
have the honour to submit this division to the approba-
tion of Jour Majesty, Since the budget of 1855 was

gentleman resumed his seat amid loud clamour which had
continued without the slightest intermission since ho rose
to speak.)
The uproar and confusion, which had commenced with
the first speaker at 11 o'clock, and continued without
abatement for a single moment, was now such that the
town-clerk had difficulty on behalf of the Mayor in call-
ing for a show of hands. The first show was at 1 o'clock,
but his worship was not satisfied, and after taking another
show requested the meeting to divide to either side of the
room. This caused additional confusion in so crowded a
room, and when the next show of bards had been taken it
was so nearly equal that his worship was still undecided.
Other shows were called for, and after a whole hour thus
wasted the Mayor declared upon his conscience he (lid not
know whether the amendment or the original motion had
the majority of votes. He believed the only course left
was to record their names as they left the meeting, but
that ho was told was impracticable, and he had no other
course but to dissolve the meeting. (Cheers and groans.)
The meeting then separated. In addition to the crowd
in the Town-hall great numbers of people were waiting
outside, who learned the result of the proceedings with
some astonishment. Mr. Bright proceeded to a separate
meeting of his own friends in Newall's-buildings.
