NEW MAP OF THE SEAT OF WAR.

BY JAMES WYLD.

Perhaps one of the very best maps of the " Seat
of War" yet published, is the coloured map just
issued from Mr. Wyld's establishment. It em-
braces the whole of the more interesting portions
of the invaded Principalities. The central point
is that bend in the River Danube at.Galatsch,
where the four great provinces of Wallachia, Mol-
davia, Bulgaria, and Bessarabia converge towards
each other. Besides these portions of Russia
and Turkey, we have westwards on the map a
part of the Black Sea, and eastwards a cor-
ner of the Austrian territory of Transylvania.
As a guide to the scenes of recent conflict between
Muscovite and Mussulnian, the map before us is
altogether really inestimable. It is deserving of
our highest eu.logium in regard to its accuracy, and
its boldness, as well as in reference to its singularly
timely publication.

PLAN OF CRONSTADT.
BY JAIMS WYLD.

An exquisitely minute and exact sketch is here
given of Cronstadt and its fortifications. The dif-
ferent batteries are marked out and brilliantly
coloured. The range of their guns is carefully indi-
cated. The relative situation of the fortified
island of Cronstadt and of the adjacent ca-
pital of St. Petersburg is revealed in one
_,orner by a supplementary outline (of minia-
ture dimensions. The whole has been deline-

ated from Russian surveys, and here repeated
by the skilled hand of her Majesty's Geographer.
An extraordinary number of soundings, measured
in fathoms, are given, and besides CroustatP
itself, the eye observes scattered around it
such important points at Risbank, and Cronslott,
and Peter lst's Fort, and Forts Constantine aura
Alexander. Besides all which, the internal ar-
rangement of Cronstadt is pencilled with admirablt
minuteness.

TOWN AND HAUBOUH OF SEBASTOPOL.

BY JAMES WYLD.

Another plan, a companion sketch to the pre-
ceding one of Cronstidt, scarcely less iuterestiu,
in character, and almost as meritorious in execu-
tion—reveals the batteries and approaches to th(
town and harbour cf Sebastopol. It extends from
the Inkermane East Light to Cape Khersouese.
About midway in the drawing is taintlyindicated the
site of the ruins of ancient Chersonesus. Along tin
coast the soundings are marked in fathoms, and
the range of the guns is distinctly intimated by a
line extending outward= from each fortification.

DRURY-LANE TIiEATRE-PANCY FAIT.

The fancy fair set on foot through the liberality of the
enterprising lessee, Mr. Smith, for the purpose of as
siting in the accumulation f a fund fur the wives and
children of the soldiers now embarked on one of the
most extraordinary campaigns the world ever saw, com-
menced ye,terlay at Drury•lane Theatre. The pit had
been boarded over, and together with the stage formed a
spacious promenade, which, however, was so crowded as
to be almost impassable during the day. The band of
the second Life Guards, in addition to the excellent band
of the theatre, played a succession of popular pieces. A
goodly array of lady patronesses filled the stalls, and
they obtained, by their enchanting system of selling, ten
times the value of the articles supplied by the fair fingers
of the lady-artistes. The zeal displayed in the cause of
charity wag great, and it was impossible to resist the
elegant coercion of the fair aristocratic shopkeepers.
The Lady Mayoress exerted herself in a way that must,
produce great benefit to the fund. The following ladies
nobly and kindly exert d themselves : —The Right
Hon. the Lady Mayoress, the Misses Lennox, Miss
Wallace, Miss Beverley, Miss Attfield, Mrs. Collimore,
Miss Evaus, Miss Fyler, Miss Wharton, Mrs. Wilson,
Miss Wes.therfield, the Misses Bennett, Mrs. Hughes,
Miss King, Miss Goodlake, and others whose names
we could not ascertain. The receipts yesterday were ol
the most satisfactory description. The Fancy Fair will
be continued this day, and we earnestly recommend
those who wish to add to the fund, to visit this theatre,
and they will be rewarded for their benevolence by a
very agreeable promenade to animating mus c, and they
will see a tasteful bazaar, attended by elegant and beau-
tiful women, doing that for charity which no other mo
tive could induce them. The promenade concerts are
continued in the evening amidst the fittings of the Fancy
Fair, and Mr. Galer introduces the death of Nelson, hr•
whish he is encored deservedly ; and Miss Lowe sing-
exquisitely " Care Conapagni, from the Somnambulist
