THE GRAND DUKE CONSTAN-

TINE AT PORTSMOUTH.

PORTSMOUTH, Jusz 11.—The Grand Duke Constantine
has been to the Victualling-yard to see the process of making
biscuit and the arrangement of the victualling stores, &c. He
was afterwards taken on board the Victory, the flag-ship of
the Commander-in. Chief, and Vice-Admiral Lutke's flag be-
ing hoisted at the fore, a complimentary salute of fifteen guns
was fired on the occasion. The Grand Duke anti the Baron
Brunnow and other officers afterwards adjourned to the Ad-
miralty-house to lunch. There is a grand dinner party this
evening, and to-morrow a ball, to which the greater part of
the nobility and gentry of the neighbourhood, with the la-
dies of their families, are invited. On Monday arrangements
have been made for the Russian officers to dine on board her
Majesty's ship Victory, the captains and officers of the ships
in the port giving the entertainment; there is also to be a
ball in the evening, and as the ship is moored within a stone's
cast of the beach, there will not be any difficulty in the ladies
getting on board. A few of the officers and men have been in
the town this day, to purchase necessaries. A young cadet of
some importance is attached to them, and in charge of Cap -
fain Swabey, of the Russian Artillery, who is showing him
all over the town and neighbourhood. Some of the London
policemen are in Portsmouth, it is said, to protect the Grand
Duke, should the Poles, who are settled at Gosport, endea-
vour to molest him. It is inure probable their object is to
endeavour to get hold of some thieves who have been suc-
cessful in four burglaries during the last three or four nights.

Her Majesty's ship Canopus, 84, sailed this morning with
sealed orders. _

The Oriental steamer has anchored at the Botherbank,
and it is said that Prince Waldemar of Prussia is on board,
on passage from India. The officers of the. line in garrison
intend to greet him warmly if he comes into the town, and
invitations have been sent to request him to land here. His
recent exploits with the troops in India will insure him a
cordial welcome.
The Commander-in-Chief has shifted his flag from the
Excellent to the Victory, while Admiral Parker is on leave.
