The Modesie is lying at Corfu, rarely moving except
for exercise and paying an occasional visit to the neigh-

The Leander frigate is ready for sea, and will go to-
morrow to Constantinople.
The Cyclops steam-ship is also to leave for the East.
The Arethusa is under similar orders, and will leave
early in the week.
The Vulcan has not moved the baggage of the Rifles
from on board. She is to be attached to the army, as is
the Simoom, when she arrives.
The Caradoc, from Constantinople, is hourly expected.
From Constantinople we learn that the Vauban and
Fury have been sent with despatches from the Admirals
to the Russian authorities at Sebastopol and Odessa.
The Fury delivered hers at Odessa, but the Vauban did
not succeed at Sebastopol, chains being thrown across
the mouth of the harbour, which was protected by ships
and batteries.
