With all their ostensible fortifications, we be-
lieve the capture of the whole of these Russian forts in
America and Kamschatka is within the power of a
couple of frigates, aided by one or two war BteamerB.
They are neither pi operly fortified nor efficiently garri-
soned ; the possibility of any serious att-ick by an orga-
nised naval force having probably never entered into the
minds of the commandants—their viry isolation and in-
si2nificance having noubt'ess lulled them into a false
sec,,rity. The next mail or two from Ca:ifornia. or the
Lthmu4, may, theref .re, lie looked forward to wiih into
rest. as resultit.g in net merely the announcement of the
commencement of the blockwle. but the capture of
Sitka, and one or two of the Russian frigates. H.M
steam-sloop Argus had arrived at iispnwall on
the 24th of June, and left next day for Jamaica, to
convey the mail steamer Dee, as two privateers were
said to be lurking about in those latitudes. H.M.S.
Davaat,tiort was expected. to Convoy the Toviot West
