ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.

Last evening the opera announced for representation
was I Puritani, but on the opening of the doors it was
announced that, in consequence of the indisposition of a
principal performer (Mario we believe), the directors had
been compelled to substitute Il Barbiere. Some slight
discontent was manifested; but, notwithstanding the
disappointment, the house was brilliantly attended.
Lablache, Ron coni, and Madame Bosio, each in their turn
delighted the audience, and fully made amends for any
disappointment. At the conclusion of the opera, the
new ballet Une Etoile was represented for the second
time, in which Madlles. Battolini and Quineaux ap-
peared, and were most efficiently and effectively sup-
ported by the talented corps de ballet of this theatre,
who, on this occasion, were all stars. The extreme beauty
of the divertissement forcibly reminded us of the splendid
productions at Her Majesty's Theatre of old, and, from
the success that has attended the production of Une
Etoile, we have no doubt that the ballets of the Royal
Italian Opera will soon become as popular as those which
so often delighted the habitues of the "old house." The
mise en scene was splendid in the extreme, and added
if that were possible, to the laurels of Mr. A. Harris.
The dances and picturesque groupings by M. Desplaces
were also of great beauty, and the fairy changes, requir-
ing much elababorate machinery, showed the perfection
to which that department of cause and effect had been
brought by the ingenious mechanician of the establishment.
The Queen and Prince Albert, accompanied by the
King of Portugal and the Duke of Oporto, honoured the
theatre with their presence. The Royal suite consisted
of the Countess of Mount Edgecumbe, the Hon. Eleanor
Stanley, Lord Camoys, Major-General Buckley, Captain
Du Plat, the Duke de Terceira, the Vicomte do Carreira,
and Lord De Tabley.

There has been an advance in almost every description of
grain to-day. Foreign wheat in good demand at an ad-
vance of fully 4s. Oati is a barrel dearer. In Indian
corn an advance of U. per ton is asked, and holders firm
at that rate. Barley is 18 to Is Gd dearer. The tendency
of all kinds of grain is upwards.

WOOL.

There is a moderate business doing in fine English wool,

from Antwerp, 10 from Calais, and 141 from the Cape.

THE GULF OF FINLAND.

Its length is ,7,3 leagues. Its breadth varies from 4to
20 leagues ; its depth from 50 to 60 fathoms, in mid-
channel ; in the bay of Cronstadt, its eastern extremity,
it is only 2 fathoms. Its currents vary with the wind. It
contains numerous small islands, the principal of which
are Dago, at its southern entrance; and Kotlin isle, on
which Cronstadt stands.

GOT/11/AND,
called by the Swedes Gottland (1;e: Goodland), and not
Gotaland (i.e. land of the Goths), is an island in the
Baltic, extending More than 70 miles in length from S.
to N. ; and is about 22 miles across where widest. Its
surface is computed.to be 1,118 (or 1,126 British) square
miles, or somewhat less than Gloucestershire ; and its
population in 1846 was 41,575. The coasts are low
and generally unbroken ; one-fifth of the island is under
cultivation, chiefly producing rye and barley; it has
also considerable hop plantations, and the climate is
rather mild for so high a latitude. Wisby, the capital,
and the seat of a bishop, is situated on the western coast.
and has a population of about 4,000 inhabitants. About
15 miles south of it is lilintelaamn, a good harbour,
whence, on certain days, a post-boat goes to the island
of Oland. On the west side, and on the east, it has har-
bours with depth. of water for steam war-vessels. The
island is hilly on the coast, but level in the interior.
Mr. Robert Chambers recommends this island as a settle-
ment for British agriculturists. He says :—" Situated
in the midst of the Baltic, extending between the 57th
and 58th parallels,—the latitude of Abderdeenshire—
and being one mass of limestone, nowhere rising above
180 feet above the sea, it presents a fine soil and elimate,
as is expressively enough shown by the fact that the
grape, walnut, and mulberry ripen in favourable sea-
sons, and that horses and sheep remain abroad all win-
ter." Mr. Laing remarks that " from its geographical
position, it is a padlock upon the gulfs of Finland and
Bothnia, which, in the hands of an effective power, could
lock up the Russian navy as in a pond, and secure the
free navigation of the Baltic."

THE DOBEUDJA.

The Russians having been defeated in all their attempts
to cross the Danube at Kalafat—the extreme right of
their position in Wallachia—seem to have fallen upon
another and far less ambitious line of operations, and have
crossed the stream at the extreme left ; apparently with-
out any very serious opposition. Omer Paella lets them
into the Dobrudja to all appearance willingly enough.
Why ? Is it that he believes the step to be one rather of
withdrawal than advance—as argued by a writer whose
views are given in another column—or because he thinks
opposition in vain ? Or because ho thinks the Russians
may be more readily dealt with on the new ground thus
taken than on the old ? Which of these reasons have
weighed with the Turkish commander time alone can
show ; but it being clear that the Russians have chosen
the Dobrudja for their first station on the Turkish side
of the Danube, we may well inquire what is to become
of them there ? For ten hours steaming above the Sa-
lina quarantine station, there is scarcely a human abode
to be seen, except on the river bank. At the driest
season the wide swamps scarcely afford a footing for the
sportsman who goes after the waterfowl. The gulls are
as much at home there as on the neighbouring sea. In
the winter, under a strong easterly wind, there are ac-
tual wrecks, when the waters come surging over the
land, knocking the trading craft of the Danube to pieces
among the reeds. There are no risinggrou nd? to encounter ;
for the whole district is as fiat as the periodical subsidence
of water can snake it. Besides the mouths of the Danube,
there are countless intermediate and branching chann els,
and lakes, and ponds, all bordered by shaking bogs. The
whole region within that bend of the Danube is as deso-
late and uninhabitable as the Dead Sea Valley—with
cold mists instead of hot glare,
.no more resources, a
much worse footing, and a liability to an infinity of
diseases. It is incomprehensible how artillery can tra-
verse the soil, or how the heavy Russian soldiery can
march, or where they can rest, and., above all, where
they mean to go. It is often said that. the Dobrudja is
probably much in the same state that it was when‘Tra-
jan built his wall from river to sea ; but there is reason
to believe that it has much deteriorated. The last re-
mains of old villages, hidden among rushes and long
grass, so that the herds-man !tumbles over them, are
signs of habitation, once practicable, but no longer so ;
.
and, indeed, it seems as Trajau need hardly have
troubled himself to build that wall, if the place had then

TREi BALTIC AND ITS RUSSIAN NAVAL

PORTS.

Now that Admiral Sir Charles Napier is with the
British fleet in the Baltic, it may be interesting to know
a few particulars relative to the places which may, sooner
or later, become the points to which its hostile attention
may be turned. We have therefore collected and corn-
piled from the authorities a few particulars respecting
the Baltic Sea, the island of Gothland and the. Russian
ports of ,Cronstadt, Helsingfors and Revel, at each of
which a naval fleet, or division of a fleet, is now in har-
bour, audit is believed will be released from the ice,

THE BALTIC.

A telegraphic despatch, dated Copenhagen,
April 1, afternoon, arnounces that the English
fleet had just entered Kioge Bay from Kiel.
The following is from an officer on board one of
the ships, dated Monday afternoon, March 27 :
"I herewith enclose you a small analysis of the Baltic
Fleet's doings since leaving Wingo Sound at 6.30 a.m.
on the morning of the 23d of March. At noon the squad-
ron hove abreast at Nidigen Lighthouse. At 6in the
evening the Neptune, 120, with the flag of Rear-Admi-
ral of the • White, A. L. Corry, the Monarch, 84, Capt.,
Erskine, Vulture, 6 (paddle), Captain Glasse, and Bull-
dog, 6 (paddle), Capt. W. K. Hall, appeared in sight,
and bearing (.own upon the fleet under full sail. The
Neptune came on in a most gallant way, and showed
herself to be a most splendid steam-boat, as the force of
wind was just enough to show her sailing qualities to
perfection. At 11 o'clock in the evening the whole fleet
came to an anchor in 11 fathoms water, Foreness Light-
house bearing N.N.W. 2 W. 4 miles.
"Friday, 24th.-The fleet weighed at 10.30 a.m., and
at 4 p.m. Reelhess Lighthouse bore S. by W. 4 miles,
and shortly afterwards the fleet anchored in 9 fathoms.

"Saturday, 25th.—It blew a gale the whole day.
The squadron struck topgallantmasts, yards, and housed
topmasts, pointing the lower yards. The sea got up in
great rolling waves, so much so that the fleet had to
veer their cables 'some fathonis. The Valorous, 10

with pilots, having been sent for them on Friday evening.

FIELSINGFOR.

is the capital of the Russian goverianeit of Finland,
at the mouth of the Warma, in 60°latitude,
and 25° 0' 15" E. longitude. It has now about 12,000
in-
habitants, and a considerable export trade in corn, fish,
iron and deals ; and important manufactures of sail-
cloth, sacking, and linen. The town was built by Gus-
tavus I. of Sweden, and burnt in the Russian war in
1728. The fine harbour is defended by several forts, es-
pecially the strong fortress of Sweaborg, which is built
on three islands. Finland having been taken by the
Russians in 1808, and ceded to them at the peace, in
1809, no pains have been spared by them to render Hes-
lingfors an important naval station. The fortifications
mount 300 cannon, and contain barracks and casements
for a garrison of 12,000 men. Since 1815, a plan for en-
larging the town has been carried into effect. Masses of
rocks have been blown up, and inequalities levelled, in
order to obtain a site for the new buildings. Among
the public edifices, the most remarkable are the palace
of the Governor, and the barracks, and likewise the mag-
nificent building for assemblies, on the esplanade, which
was finished in 1833. After the destructive fire at Abo,
the university, called Alexander's University, was trans-
ferred by a ukase of 21st December" 1827, to Ilelsinfors.
ar .
It is divided into four faculties, with 22 professors, and
has a library of 40,000 volumes, and botanical garden.
There were 491 students in 1851.

REVEL,

7-- -
the' capital of the Russian Government of Esthonia,
is situated on the Gulf of Finland. It is very strongly
fortified, and in 1824 the harbour was made capable of
receiving the Russian Baltic fleet. The best part of the
portion, on the
city is that called the Dom, a
distinct
west side of the city, and commanding an extensive view
of the sea. Most of the houses of the nobility are in
this part. There are in all about 1,900 houses and
15,000 inhabitants, a large portion of whom are Ger-
mans. There are numerous public and private schools,
a gymnasium founded by Gustavus Adolphus in 1631, a
naval and military hospital, &e. The manufactures are
cotton goods, hats, stockings, leather, gunpowder, starch,
needles, earthenware, looking glasses, &c. There is
also a cannon and bell foundry. Revel has a very con-
siderable trade, which is chiefly in the hands of opulent
German houses. About 100 merchantmen annually
arrive in the course of the season, and leave before the
Winter sets in.

majority of the committee could not dou'.t siu-
cerity of M. de Montalembert's declaration and
was of opinion that the dignity of the Assembly was
interested in not allowing a member to be prose-
cuted for an act which he disavowed. The majority
consequently decided on not granting the authori-
zation demanded by the Attorney-General. The
Chamber after wards ,rde red the report to by, printed

AUSTRIA.
The Archduke Albert has left Vienna for Sem-
lin, as Commander-in-Chief of the army observa-
..tion on the Turkish frontier.
The army on the frontier, including the inhabi-
'Tants who perform a permanent service, is not less
than from 120,000 to 150,000 men. Stores are
being collected on a large scale.
Negotiations have been going .on between the
Treasury and the Bank for an advance on the
security of the State domains, and the Bank has
just declined the proposal.

PRUSSIA.
The committee on the loan has lately had im-
portant conferences with the President of the
Council, many of the deputies being present. The
President of the Council said that the Prussian
Government, in accord with the cabinets of Vienna,
London, and Paris, and founding itself on the
views expressed in the conferences of Vienna be-
tween the four powers, will use all its efforts for
the re-establishment of peace. He did not, how-
ever, enter into any details. M. de Bonin, the
Minister of War, did not reply to all the questions
Put to him by the committee, but the explanations
given by him produced a great impression on the
members of it, and it was resolved unanimously to
Propose to the Second Chamber to vote the loan.

THE GREEK INSURRECTION.

The ambassador of Greece, M. Sehinos, had a
private audience of the King of Bavaria a few days
ago, which lasted five hours. The ambassador
then left for Vienna, and from that city will pro-
ceed to Berlin. The ottject of his journey is to
demand from the German Powers to protest against
"encroachments of the Western Powers on the in-
dependence of Greece and her King."
The Wanderer of Vienna has the following from
Constantinople :—" In a few days the preliminary
proceedings in the affair of the Greek conspiracy
will be brought to a close. It is proved by the
examination that the ramifications extended into
all the Greco-Sclavonian provinces of the Turkish
empire. The central point was at Athens, and
Russia favoured the conspiracy. The papers
found at the residence of Elsner proved that he
kept up a regular correspondence with the officers
of the Greek army, and the names of four officers
figure in the minutes. It is also proved that (Elsner
made reports to Prince Gortschakoff. It is post•
tively stated that the Turkish Government will pub-
lish a decree, enjoining all Russian subjects, with-
out distinction, to quit the Ottoman empire, unless
they prefer being treated as rayahs. This measure
will, it is said; be also extended to Greek subjects.
It is proved that the seven committees established
in the Turkish empire, for the purpose of forming
a Byzantine empire and fomenting revolt against
Turkey, were directed by a central committee at
Athens, and in which a minister of King Otho took
part. The Greek officers were encouraged to give
their resignation in order that they might join the
insurrection without compromising the Government.
Whole detachments of troops receive the national
costume adopted by the party of the insurrectional
movement, and arms and ammunitions have been
distributed to them from the royal arsenal. One
Greek steamer alone, the Othon„ carried 0,000
muskets to the insurgents. The formation of a flo-
tilla of pirates to capture Turkish vessels has been
proposed by means of a subscription. All these
circumstances show how necessary it is that the
Ottoman Porte should address a manifesto to the
Greek Government. In this manifesto the Otto-
man Porte will demand the reparation which 15
due to it, and also the discharge of all the officers
who have joined iu the insurrection."
