THE WAR ON THE DANUBE

The movements of the Turks in the Dabrudscha
and in Moldavia indicate that an attack on Bessa-
rabia will not be deferred much longer. Omer
Pacha has been lately moving in all directions—one
day at Bucharest, the next on the Danube, at Rust-
chuk, Silistria, Galatz, and Ibraila. Ho has re-
peatedly vi ite,l Silistria and IVlaAschin, to inspect
the troops there. There were 15,000 Egyptian and
Turkish troops at Ka,larasch, which are to go to the
Dobrudscha, where most of. the troops from the
Lower Danube are concentrating. The Turkish
centre is opposite Ismail, and at this point and at
Reni the Russians are concentrating from the
north ; while the troops in Bessarabia are ordered
to go with all speed to the Crimea. Cara Kiz, the
Kurdish Amazon, has gone from Varna, with her
troop of wild riders to the Crimea.
A letter from Bucharest, 2d, says :—" The Gene-
ral-in-chief of the T urkish armyleft this place on the
29th ult.forKalarasch, to inspect the troops cantoned
on the Danube. Omer Pacha before his departure
presented to Mehemet Sadik Pacha the order of
Mejidie, third class, which the Sultan had conferred
on him. On the 21st, 22d, and 25th ult., deputations
from the Boyards, the merchants,and the forty-eight
trading corporations, waited on that General, who
is the Commandant of Bucharest, to present him
addresses from their respective bodies."
The Press of Vienna, of the 9th, says :—" A
letter from Constantinople states that Field-Mar-
shal Baron de Hess having made known to his Ca-
binet the proclamation of the Turkish commandant
of Bucharest, directed against Prince Stirbey,
Austria has laid a complaint on the subject at
Constantinople, and demanded satisfaction. This
demand was the object of a negotiation on the 26th
nit. Nothing positive is yet known as to the result
of the conferences which have taken place, but it
is positively stated that the conduct of Omer Pacha
has been severely blamed. It is also said that he
has been reproached for the arbitrary arrest cf
MM. Golesco and Czernatesco, as well as that of
several correspondents of German and English jour-
nals."

THE ARCTIC EXPEDITION.

The officers for trial by courts martial, which aro to take
place on Tuesday (to-morrow), on board the Waterloo,
hare arrived here, late of the Investigator, Resolute, and

Assistance.

The North Star and Talbot crews will be occupied all
his week in returning provisions here.

THE RUSSIAN PRISONERS.

The Admiralty have decided on granting the Russian
prisoners each 2lbs. of good mixed rye bread (soft) for
their daily use, decreasing a small quantity of cocoa and
tea ; they will have the same supply of meat, soup, and
other small stores as heretofore. The prisoners will have
the privilege of making their own broad on shore, under
proper inspection, the same to be baked and sent on board
for their use daily. All the soldiers expres'i the highest
satisfaction at this arrangement. There are still about 200
prisoners on board the Benbow. Captain Snellman, who
was left behind siok, in consequence of rupturing a blood-
vessel in his throat, has so far recovered as to be able to
get about again. This officer and Mr. Back, a merchant-
master, late of the Carl, are the only two officers here now
residing on shore on parole. Back, being a Russian-
Finnish subject, has made an application to the proper au-
thorities to be sent to Lewes to join the Finnish officers
there on parole. Tho Admiralty have decided that none
of the masters of the ships detained for breaking the
blockade can be allowed 7s. per day. Back, being a Rus-
sian subject, has this privilege granted to him, he being a
lawful prisoner of war.

LONDON, MONDAY, OCTGBER 16, 1814.

The public mind is again yearning for trust-
worthy tidings from the Crimea. In the intense
anxiety, the universal excitement that prevails,
everything else is regarded as comparatively
trivial or worthless. " Sebastopol" is the general
signal for attention in anything relating to the
progress of the siege, the position of the Allied
Forces by land and water, the state of the belea-
guered fortress, and of the Russian fleet—a moiety
whereof were sacrificed to prevent the ingress of
the hostile fleet, and the remainder ready to be
submerged the moment 'our jolly. tars have the
slightest chance of getting at them. The "colt-
rageous" actors in the tragedy at Sinope are
ready, like Colonel CRocKErr's game, to come
down from the tree without giving the unerring
marksman the trouble of firing, and to yield them-
selves up, " as gone coons," even previous to any
attack.

The anxiety becomes more eager as the time
approaches when we ought to receive further offi-
cial despatches. The last that arrived, which
came from Vienna on Thursdaylast, and appeared
in The Sun the same day, informed us of the
progress of events up to the 3d instant. Four
days have since elapsed, and surely we may now
look forward to something additional. We
scarcely regard that derived from a Russian source
as worthy of the slightest credence, and only com-
municate it to show the nature of the news with
which the CZA.R satisfies the cravings of his
loyal subjects. Before the Bth, to which day
the next communication will probably take us,
considerable progress ought to have been made in
the bombardment ; or, if not, it would at least
be satisfactory to know the arrangement entered
into, the stations of the different divisions, and
the reasons, if any, ,for the delay.
We are well aware that some time must neces-
sarily be consumed in making the necessary pre-
parations for the attack on a fortification so
strongly defended—that the • artillery could not
be landed at Balaklava and conveyed to the vici-
nity of Sebastopol, the batteries constructed and
made xeady to open fire against the town, the
shipping, and the different forts--or the trenches
carried forward within the requisite distance,
without some delay. But we mist recollect that,
on or before the 3d instant, " 50 heavy guns,
650 sailors, and 2,000 marines had been landed
from the Fleet at Balaklava—that the English
Army was close to Sebastopol, which was invested
on the South—that batteries of heavy guns had
been constructed—that the Allied Armies had ad-

vanc6d their • trenches ..o within 1,500 yards of

Sebastopol, and that a strong feeling prevailed
, among. French and English that a general assault
would-be made "on the Bth inst., that would trans-
'-tfer the Russian stronghold into the hands of the
Allies," Snowing these things on undisputable
i Authority, we cannot conceive any grounds for
further delays, more especially when the lateneFs

THE REBELS IN THE NORTH.

The extracts from Peking Gazettes, in the North
China Herald of 29th July, contain reports of the
defeat of the rebels in Hoopih province and re-
capture of Keen-le and E-ch'hang ; and at Ke-wo,
on the Yang-tz-keang, where they attempted to
build a fort, they were driven from their entrench-
ments, and on board their boats, many of which
were burnt or sunk. Attacks by the rebels on
Yang-keoh and Chenyu-taou had failed. The de-
struction of the rebel encampments outside of Loo-
chow is also reported, together with the re-taking
of ijuil-ngan in Nganhwuy. The Imperialist Gene-
ral Shang-paou had defeated the rebels at the city
of Fung, on the Yellow River, and Tsang-kih-liu-
sin bad been successful over them at Leenchin.
The insurgents had, however, made some pro-
gress in Keang-se province, and had taken Tih-ngan
Keen-ch'haug, and Wooning.

DEATH OF CAPTAIN MARTIN, C.B.

This gallant officer, who was appointed Captain Super-
intendent of Deptford victualling and dockyards in J anu-
ary, 1853, and whose urbanity of manner endeared him to
all who had to serve under him, died at Nottingham on Sa-
turday. Captain Martin had been slightly indisposed for
somo time, owing to the great exertions he had to perform
on the declaration of war with Russia, when so many
transports were required to be supplied with stores at
Deptford for transmission to the fleets in the Baltic and
Black sea. According to " Bryne's Naval Biography,"
George Bohun Martin was third and youngest son of the
late Mr. Henry Martin, of Colston Basset, Notts, a magis-
trate for the county, M.P. for Kinsale, and one of the
Masters in Chancery, by Maria Elizabeth, daughter of Mr.
Francis Edmunds, of Worsborough, Yorkshire. He was
nephew of the late Sir George Martin, G.C.8.,
Admiral of the Fleet. This officer entered the
Royl Naval
College April 3 1812, and embarked April lBl5, as
midshipman on board the Impregnable, 93, Captain Samp-
son Rowley, bearing the flag of Sir Josias Rowley, in the
Mediterranean, where in the following October he removed
to tho Spartan, 38, Captain Phipps Hornby. Quitting
that ship in July, 1816, ho next, until the receipt of his
first commission, . dated March 17, 1821, served on the I
Channel, Mediterranean, and Cork stations, in the Mada-
gascar and Meander frigates, both commanded by Captain
Sir James Alexander Gordon; Ganymede, 26, Captains
William M'Culloch and Hon. Robert Cavendish Spencer;
Wasp sloop, Captain Wm. Woolridge ; Hyperion, 42, Cap-
tain Thomas Searle ; Newcastle, 60, Captain Arthur Fan-
shawe ; Cadmus and Brisk sloops, each under the orders of
Captain Sir J. Montagu ; Spencer, 74, flag-ship of Sir J.
Rowley; and acting-lieutenant of the Sappho, sloop, Cap.
tain J. H. Plurnridge. On the date of his official promo-
motion as above, Mr. Martin was nominated flag lieutenant
in the Queen Charlotte, 100, to Admiral SirJ. fl.Whitshed,
commander-in-chief at Portsmouth, obtaining a second pro-
noted commission in consequence, April 24, 14 he as-
rill7, 1827, of Musquito, 182 0, Cana re-
sumed command, Ap
turning to the Mediterranean was afforded an opportunity
of sharing, October 20 following, in the battle of Navarino.
His conduct on that occasion procured him bhe honours
above indicated, C. 8,, K.S.L., K.S.A., and K.R.G., and
was the cause of his being advanced (as soon as he served
the necessary time as commander) to post rank, April 19,
1828. His next appointments were, April 17, 1833, and
October 31,135, to Oil isloiAgoa 28, Ana Caledonia, 120

MONTENEGRO.

The Montenegrins and Turks had another en-
counter on the 30th near Spuz ; what the result
was, however, is not yet known here. It is said
that Prince Danilo has refused to countenance
these skirmishes since the return of his aide-de-
camp Vielandowich from Vienna. Addi
the suppressor of the insurrection in Thessalia, is
appointed commander of the Turkish troops to be
employed in holding the Montenegrins within their
own frontiers, and will shortly go from Constanti-
nople to his head-quarters at Podgorizza.

MISCELLANEOUS.

The Danish schooner Gefion,.P.B. Briechtsen, master,
from Cardiff, with a cargo of the best quality Welsh coal;
is alongside the Royal Albert, delivering into bor. Other
cargoes of the same quality, to tha amount of 400 tons, are
to be received. Most of these are,shipped in foreign bot-
toms, at a much lower rate of freight than could be taken
upon charter by our own coasting vessels. The Gefion de-
livered a cargo of barley from Odense at Gloucester, and
proceeded to Cardiff in ballast. ;

SHEERNESS. Considerable improvements are about
being. made at this yard for. the purposes of boiler
making and marine-engine- making here. Glass-
roofed- buildings and glass-coVered stores are abriut
being erected here on a very extensive scale. The
Quadrangle Store Houses-yard is to be, covered in with
glass, and large -work sheds ahead of the docks ire also to
be erected for the convenience of shipwrights, ship-joiners,
&c., working during the winter months. Gas is being laid
onto the imitheries, millWrights' workshops, &c., to enable
long hours to be worked during the winter, and everything
here bespeaks going to work in right good earnest to pre-
pare our steam and sailing fleet to be all ready to leave again
early in the forthcoming spring. .
The Cossack has completed her coaling from the floating
coal depot in. Salt Pari Reach. She will be inspected by
the coium'ander-ii-chief to-day, preparatory-to her depar-
ture for the Slack Sea.

The commander-in•chief returned from his leave of ab-
sence on Saturday last, and at three p.m. the comnioclore's
broad pendant was streek-on board the Royal Albert, and

TO TIIR EDITOR OF THE BUN.

SlR,—The harrowing details of the condition of the
wounded after the battle of Alma have excited no less
astonishment than sympathy in the public mind ; but
the conclusion that the army is without medical officers,
medicines, and medical comforts is not necessarily cor-
rect. Of all these there may be at the seat of war a sup-
ply more than adequate to much greater demands, and
yet the circumstances attending a great battle—an army
in motion after victory—might cause confusion enough
to render unavailable the most abundant resources.
Thus, after the battle of Chillianwallah, 270 wounded
men of the 24th lay scattered about, and little attention
could be given to their wounds for 18 hours, because the
water-carriers had fled from the field. So in the present
instance, to organise a suitable provision for the wounded
in their passage to Scutari or Constantinople was perhaps
at the time simply impossible, in an army marching on,
as it was deemed, to A second contest and a fresh vic-
tory ; but now that they have arrived at these places, '
doubtless everything will he done for the survivors that
science and philanthropy can devise to promote their
comfort and well being. That the ccminon articles, lint,
bandages, linen, c., have not been furnished in quan-
tities sufficient for far greater emergencies, it is ridicu-
lous to suppose ; but were it the cas,,, most of these arc
easily obtained in the bazaars in Constantinople. The
sympathy of England need not therefore exhibit itself in
this direction. What our suffering countrymen will
most want is that which England can alone supply—
good meat and drink ; and these should be forwarded
without delay in the shape of preserved soups, meats,
&C., port,,r, port wine, &c. Arrow-root and similar
things miy be dispensed with or sent in smaller quan-
tity ; they are fit enough for our fever hospitals, but not
adapted to heal wounds or supply fresh blood to the
exhausted system.—Yours obediently,
MEDICAL orricEß,

to foreigners than to our own fellow-countrymen,
as was indicated the other day rather notably in
the sum collected in behalf of the relations of a
French naval Lieutenant.

Nevertheless, with all this noble munificence on
the part of Englishmen, numerous omissions are
frequently observable in the distribution of the
national benevolence—sometimes omissions of a
wholly unaccountable kind from their long con-
tinuance and their magnitude. 0e of these we
have now to indicate. It is one that only re-
quires to be mentioned to be appreciated. It is
of a character so important that we do not con-
ceive it ill-timed to specify it even at this moment
when strenuous efforts are being made to assist
the destitute wives and children of our gallant
soldiers now called eastwards, there to fight side by
side with the soldiers of France and of Turkey the
battle of civilisation. Even at this juncture we
consider it not inapposite to direct the popular
attention to the subject implied by our foregoing
remarks—because the claim upon the general
charity here meant has reference no less to the
wives and children of another section of the more
heroic among our fellow-countrymen. Allusion
is hereby made to to the Families of our humane
and daring Coast Batmen. We are rejoiced to
observe that endeavours have recently been adven-
tured upon in their behalf by those who are the
best qualified to speak of their claims upon the
national consideration. Meaning, of course, those
who are familiar with their acts of heroism, and
the frequent privations to which their wives and
offspring are subjected in consequence. An elo-
quent and convincing pamphlet in their behalf*
has recently been issued by a gentleman residing
at St. Margaret's-at-Cliff—a, brochure commanding
from us an earnest and spontaneous commenda-
tion. It explains the extraordinary and anoma-
lous, and, in many respects, most painful situa-
tion of these brave Coast Boatmen, and offers a
variety of very rational suggestions for the forma-
tion of a fund to reward them for saving life in
cases of disasters at sea or shipwreck. It points
out the monstrous absurdity and unfairness of
the present system, by virtue of which these gal-
lant fellows are recompensed for saving property
—obtaining, for the preservation of life, no right
whatever even to the smallest compensation. It
does all this, moreover, with a gentleness of sym-
pathy and a fervour of indignation that must
secure for the argument of the pamphleteer a
cordial and general admiration. Thus briefly,
but sufficiently, because earnestly and heartily,
we commend the "Appeal for the Coast Boatmen"
to the notice of every intelligent member of our
population.

FRANCE.

-
The senators and members of the Legislative
Body have received letters convoking them for to-
day at half-past twelve at the Tuileries.
The interment of the Abbe Lamennais took
place yesterday morning without the least disorder.
n accordance with the wishes of the deceased, his
body was carried straight to the cemetery, without
being taken to any church.
The funeral of Admiral Roussin was celebrated
yesterday with great pomp ; 12 battalions of in-
fantry, two squadrons of Gardes de Paris, one of
Chasseurs, and a battery of Artillery, escorted the
remains of the Admiral from the Madeleine to
Pere la Chaise.

The message of the Emperor is looked forward
to with great interest. This message will speak of
war as inevitable ; but in order in some degree to
relieve the public mind, it will annource th good
understanding existing between the four Powers,
and declare that their alliance will render the suc-
cess of the Powers certain, and the war short. The
message, it is believed, will congratulate the coun-
try on the patience and tranquillity with which it
has supported the distress caused by the high price
of corn ; and express a hope that the crisis is now
over, as there is every prospect of a good harvest
next season. The departure of Prince Napoleon
will be announced • and the Emperor will close his
speech by stating that France must triumph when
she draws the sword in the defence of religion and
%zeal Want its to be the new Minister. of

War, in place of Marshal de St. Arnaud, who has
been appointed commander-in-chief of the expedi-
tionary army to Turkey. The appointment is in
every respect a good one, Marshal Vaillant being
one of the best officers and administrators in the
French service.

The news that the English and French Govern-
ments have formally summoned Russia to evacuate
the Danubian principalities created a great sensa-
tion yesterday, and produced a considerable fall at
the Bourse. It appears that the Prussian and
Austrian Governments, though adhering to the
ultimatum of the other Powers, will not declare
war on the rejection of the summons.
Yesterday being settling day at the Bourse there
was not much business transacted, except in liqui-
dating the differences for last month. The Three
per Cents. opened at 68f. 5c., and fell to 67f.
15c., at which they closed for the end of the month.
The only cause assigned for this serious fall is that
the speculators for a rise have purchased more
stock than they are prepared to receive. The Four-
and-a-Half per Cents. closed at 96f. 50c. ; Orleans
Railway Shares, 1,090 f. Rouen, 875 f. ; Havre,
445 f. ; Great Northern, 737 f. 50c. ; Paris and

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT'.—March 1.

OLD COURT.
(Continued from our first edition of yesterday.)
THE ALLEGED EXTENSIVE FORGERIES IN THE CITY.

William Anderson, 30, a person of gentlemanly ap
pearance, described as a merchant, was indicted for
feloniously forging and uttering an acceptance for a bill
of exchange for 2,480 g., with intent to defraud.
Mr. Huddlestone and Mr. Billings conducted the
prosecution ; Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., Mr. Prendergast,
Q.C., and Mr. Parry, Q.C., were counsel for the
prisoner.

After the examination of a number of witnesses for
the prosecution,
Mr. Chambers proceeded to address the jury on be-
half of the prisoner, and after observing upon the
im-
probability of a person standing in the high position he
was proved to have done sacrificing all his prospects and
committing an offence of so serious a character, he pro-
ceeded to urge upon the jury that, taking into conside-
ration the nature of the transactions between the priso-
ner and Messrs. Van Notten, he might fairly come to
the conclusion that he considered himself justified in
putting their acceptance to the instrument in question.
If he had done so, he said, under a mistaken notion as
to his rights, still, if ho had really acted so bona fide he
would not be amenable to the present charge, and he
urged the fact of the prisoner having applied to persons
by whom he was well knowm, to get the bill in question
discounted, and the certainty consequently of his being
detected, was a strong proof' that he really believed he
had the authority to accept th e bills on behalf of Messrs.
Van Notten, and upon this ground he asked them to
acquit the prisoner.
The Chief Baron having .summed up,
The jury, without deliberating more than five minutes,
returned a verdict of guilty.
An application was made for 6001. taken from the
prisoner to be given up to Messrs. Overend, Gurney,
and Co. This was resisted on the part of the assignees
of the prisoner, who, since these transactions, has been
declared a bankrupt, and the court declined to make
any order.

IN RE KEILY.-CASE OF AN EMIGRATION AGENT.

This was the first meeting under the bankruptcy of
Richard Kelly, described as an emigration agent, of
Ladbioke-terrace, Notting-bill. The liabilities of the
bankrupt are large, somewhere about 60,0001., but a
considerable portion of these are secured ; the un-
secured debts are estimated at between 6,0001. and
7,0001. The assets are chiefly of a contingent cha-
racter. The bankrupt has latterly been engaged in
a speculation for sending out passengers to America.
He was also connected with the Asturian Mining
Company, and, some years ago, obtained the concession
from the Spanish Government of a railway in Spain,
the profit of which he estimated at 12,0001. At the
general election i❑ 1847, he was a candidate for New
Ross, in Ireland. Subsequently (he stated) he had been
induce 4 to accept a bill for 1501., without consideration,
for J. Birch, editor of The TWorld, who set up the plea
of services rendered during the election. He had also
been engaged i❑ a railway project in America, called the
Savanna Railway, from which he anticipated a profit of
30,000/. ; and to assist him in carrying this out he had
borrowed money on mortgage of land which he pos-
sessed there. This land comprised 200,000 acres in the
state of Georgia, for which he had contracted to pay 2s.
per acre, expecting to reap a large profit from re-sales ;
hut being unable to carry out his contract, owing to the
unsettled state of affairs on the continent, the purchase
had been annulled.

Mr. Fuller, coach-builder, of Mortimer-street, Caven-
disti-square, was chosen trade assignee ; Mr. Pennell is
the official assignee ; Messrs. ][. wrance, Plews, and
Boyer, are the solicitors under the bankruptcy ; and
Messrs. Hart Brothers are the accountants.

SPAIN.

The Gazette of the 24th ult. contains a despatch
from the Captain-General of Aragon, in which he
says

Since my last despatch of this morning, at one
o'clock, nothing new has occurred at Saragossa,
which enjoys the most perfect tranquillity ; never-
theless, in order to be prepared for any extremity,
I have ordered that the troops shall remain in their
quarters with their officers. News of the insur-
gents have been received from the alcade of Juslibal,
a small place at about five miles' distance from
Sarragossa, and from the alcade of Castejan de
Valdejara, at about eight miles' distance. The
first informs me that yesterday, between midnight
and one o'clock, the insurgents had passed by Jus-
libal ; and the second announces that they had ar-
rived at Castejan de Valdejara in the morning of
this day, and that they had taken the direction of
Erla or Luna. The colonel in command, Don
Juan Bautista Posas, confirms this news by a verbal
communication, in which he announces that he was
taking the direction of Castejan de Valdejara, and
was only at sixteen miles' distance from Souleves ;
consequently he must have overtaken them by this
time. Their number appears to be reduced ; they
are accompanied by some armed citizens, who had
stopped in their route an officer and a soldier of the
civil guard, whom they carried off with them.
The Espana states that complete tranquillity
prevailed at Barcelona and in the other towns of
the principalities.
Madrid was calm, but the Government had or-
dered the Athenaeum to be closed, as angry poli-
tical discussions took place in it.
The Espana denies that General O'Donnel had,
as stated by some of the journals, arrived at
Bayonne.
A Madrid letter of the 24th says—" Several
journalists have been arrested, and placed in soli-
tary confinement by order of the civil governor.
At midnight, four of the editors of the Diario
Espanol, Las Novedades, and Tribuno, left under
charge of a police agent in a post carriage for Cadiz.
It is said that they will be exiled to the Philippines.
Colonel Gayetano Cardero, who is well known for
the part which he took in the scenes at the Post-
office in 1836, has also been arrested.
The Government is in hourly expectation of re-
ceiving news that the troops sent in pursuit of the
fugitives from Saragossa have come up with them.
The accounts from Catalonia are satisfactory. The
rumour circulated yesterday by the enemies of the
governinent that a movement had taken place in
Barcelona is unfounded.

Yesterday, one of the horses in the carriage of
the King having fallen near the Puerta del Sol,
the King alighted, and proceeded t? the Palace on
foot. As he passed he was loudly cheered.
