any more troops at Gallipoli. They arrived there
on the following day, and took up their quarters at
Scutari, where they were heartily welcomed by the
population. Scutari is opposite Constantinople, on
the opposite shore of the Bosphorus, and one mile

cellent.

far from Constantinople.
On the 14th the combined fleets were still at
Kavarna.

The Fury had been sent to Odessa to take away
the English Consul and English subjects there.
She was fired into and driven back, despite her flag
of truce. The Fury captured a Russian schooner,
but was chased by five Russian vessels of war from
Sebastopol, and was compelled to abandon the
schooner. She kept the crew as hostages.
The irritation on board the fleets is extreme.
There was a general illumination on the 10th, on
board the vessels of the fleets, when the Banshee
brought the order to commence hostilities.
The departure of the fleets for Odessa was immi-
nent.

of Odessa is contradicted. There has been sharp

vate soldiers, whatever their rank may have been
in the army of the enemy. Such prisoners as are
subjects of Austria are to be handed over to that
power."

St. Petersburg. The Neva and the waters of Cron-
stadt were still frozen over, and nothing seemed to
intimate that a thaw was near at hand.
