RUSJSIA.

BERLIN, Feb. 24.—One of the most satisfactory
features of the Russian press of the last dates that
have come to hand, is the circumstance that in a
number of official doeuthents that have been pub-
lished of late with reference to the navy the Black
Sea and the Sea of Azoff are no longer mentioned.
This looks as if the Government recognised the
destruction of the Black Sea fleet, and the disper-
sion of the small reainant of its crews still extant,
as a fait accompli, on which the Conferences in
Paris are about to impress the stamp .ot perma-
nence.

In the columns of the Wojenny Listok (Military
Journal) are to be found official data as to the
I strength of the late Black Sea Fleet, which, as be-
ing official, will have a certain historical interest
of authenticity. According to these the Russian
Pontes Fleet consisted of 4 ships of the line of 110
to 120 guns ; 12 ships of the line of 80 to 100 ; and,
finally, 2 reserve liners, of 80 guns ; altogether 18
ships of the line, carrying 1,628 guns. 01 frigates
there were 12 of 52 to 56 guns, together with about
40 sailing vessels of 10 guns each, and 15 war
steamers. The total force of the Russian war fleet
in the Black Sea consisted thus of 85 vessels of all
rates, mounting 2,890 guns. The entire commer•
cial fleet that Russia possessed in the Black Sea has
been destroyed, with the exreption of 11 vessels
still lying at Odessa, some 20 odd at Nicholaieff and
Cherson, and 20 odd that have taken refuge up the
Don. The craft destroyed in the Sea of Azoff are
stated to have amounted to several hundreds.

The Emperor has ordered that the two Grand
Dukes, Nicholas and Michael, shall at once enter
upon their respective functions, the former as In-
spector of Engineers, the latter as Master of the
Ordnance. General Dalin, of the Engineers, and
General Kortf, of the Artillery, have been asso-
ciated with the two Grand Dukes in these offices
under the title of Assistants.

Private letters from St. Petersburg state that
General de Berg reported that he could not under-
take to answer for the fidelity of Finland to
Russia, iu case of an invasion, unless his army was
tripled in numbers.

MILAN.

The Eco dells Forsaof Milan has received a
formal warning from the Austrian authorities
to abstain in future from expressing opinions
contrary to the principles of the Imperial Govern-
ment aud to public order, as also to avoid making
offensive remarks on the French Government.
A letter from Milan, in the Presse Beige, says :
—" The other day bills were found stuck on the
walls of the palaces Greppi, Traversa, and Poldi,
displaying in large characters the words :—' King
'Victor Emmanuel for ever I Ci.votir for ever !'
This of course caused great excitement among the
police authorities, who requested the proprietors
to have them removed. The latter replied that
as they had not stuck up the bills in question they
would not take the trouble to remove them ; where-
upon the police performed the operation them-
selves."

DEATH OF CAPTAIN ONSLOW.

Captain John James Onslow (1834) died on the 24th
instant, at Blofield, near Ni2rwich, iu the sixty-first year
of his age. We take the following account of his ser-
vices from O'Byrne's " Naval Biography" :
" This officer entered the navy April 19, 1810, as
first-class volunteer on board the Surveillante, 36, Cap-
tain Sir George Ralph Collier, under whom he was for
some time actively employed on the north coast of Spain,
particularly iu the boats at the capture of Berme() and
Deba. He continued in the Surveillante, in the capa-
city of midshipman, until April, 1812 ; and between
that period and the date of his promotion to the rank of
lieutenant, Sept. 5, 1816, was employed on the Brazilian,
Jamaica, and home stations in the Montague, 74, flag-
ship of the late Sir Manley Dixon, Aquilon, and Ceres
frigates, both commanded by Captain William Bowles ;
Araxes, 38, Captain George Miller Bligh ; and Boyne,
98, Captain Edmund Boger. Ile joined soon afterwards
the Conqueror, 74, bearing the id-kg of Rear Admiral
Robert Plampin at St. Helena ; whence, at the close of
1817, he returned to England in the Iphigenia, 42.
From September, 1818, until superseded at his own re-
quest in September, 1819, he served in the Downs on
board the Alert sloop, Captains Henry John Leeke and
Charles Farwell ; and, on April 23, 1822, he attained
the rank of Commander. Ilia next appointments were
July 22, 1824, to the Beaver, 8, on the Jamaica station,
where he remained about two years; and, April 30,
1830, to the Clio, 18, fitting for South America. While
on that station Captain Onslow was sent by Rear-Ad-
miral Sir Thomas Baker to reclaim possession of the
Falkland Idands, which lapse of time Lad encouraged
the Buenos Ayreans and other foreigners to consider as
absolutely abandoned by the British. Arriving in De-
cember, 1832, at Port Egmont (West Falkland), he
exercised the rights of sovereknty, and employed his
boats in examining Brett's Harbour, Byron 'a Sound,
and other anchorages as far to the westward as Point
Bay, a distance of 63 miles from the place at which the
Clio lay. He then proceeded to Berkeley Sound (East
Falkland), anchored at Port Louis, and ejected a Buenos
Ayrean force stationed there under the protection of a
schooner of war. He returned to Portsmouth from Rio
de Janeiro with upwards of 888,000 dollars, June 3,
1833 ; and on the 17th of the same month was paid off.
He was advanced to post-rank August 27, 1834: and
was lastly, from July 23, 1842, until put out of com-
mission in the early part of 1847, employed in the Paci-
fic on board the Daphne, 18."

A new line of Brazil steamers is about to be started.
They are auxiliary screws of 700 tons and 80 horse
Powers, and one is to leave Southampton for Bahia and
Rio on the 23d of every month. The names of the yes.
sets are the Celt, the Dane, and the Norman, and a
fourth is in course of construction. The Norman is to
mil on the 23d of September.

MISS NIGHTINGALE,.

The workmen in a large manufactory in the neigh-
bourhood of Newcastle upon-Tyne sent an address to
Miss Nightingale a few days since, congratulating her
upon her safe return to her home and friends. Miss
Nightingale has returned the following reply :
" August 23, 1856.
"My dear Friends,—l wish it were in my power to
tell what was in my heart when I received your letter.
Your welcome home, your sympathy with what has been
passing while I have been absent, have touched me more
than I can tell in words. My dear friends, the things
that are deepest in our hearts are perhaps what it is most
difficult to us to express. She hath done what she
could.' Those words I inscribed on the tomb of one of
my best helpers whom I left in the. graveyard at Scutari.
" It has been my endeavour, in the sight of God, to
do as she has done. I will not speak of reward, when
permitted to do our country's work. It is what we live
for. But I may say that to receive sympathy from af-
fectionate hearts like yours is the greatest support, the
greatest gratification, that is possible fur me to receive
from man.
"I thank you all, the 1,800, with grateful, tender
affection. And I should have written before to do so,
were not the business, which my return home has not
ended, almost more than I can mara-ge.
"Pray believe me, my dear friends,
"Yours faith,u ly n I gratefully,

THAMES.

SUMMARY CONVICTION OF A SHOP LIFTER.---Mary
RiChmond, aged 29, of No. 2, Stephen's-acre, Poplar,
and described as being of no occupation, was brought
before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing a shawl from
the shop of Mr. James Davy, linen-draper, High-street,
Poplar.
The prisoner was apprehended on another charge by
Henry Eflgell, a police-constable, No. 318 N, but that
charge was not pressed. On searching her the officer
found in her pocket the duplicate of a new shawl which
ehe had pawned on Monday evening last, at the shop
of French and Ogilvie, pawnbrokers, No. 212, High-
street, Poplar, only five doors from the place she had
stolen it from. The shawl was identified by Miss Mary
Ann Davy, daughter of the prosecutor,,who said that
on Monday morning the prisoner came into her father's
shop and asked for some articles which ehe pur-
chased, but witness could not then recollect what
those articles were. The prisoner stood near a pile of
shawls while she was in the shop, but witness did not
miss one after the prisoner had left. The shawl pro-
duced had been stolen from her father's shop, and had
not been sold.

Mr. William French lent the prisoner ss. on the
shawl, which he produced. lie had known the prisoner
some years, and also knew her father. The prisoner's
husband was an; industrious, hard-working man, lie
never heard anything against the prisoner's honesty
before. She was in the practice of pawning her own
goods at his shop for some time.

The prisoner pleaded guilty, and said that distress
made her commit the robbery. She had five children,
and her husband only allowed her 153. per week to
maintain herself and the whole family.
Mr. Yardley said it was absurd to plead distress.
There were thousands of honest people with less means
of support than the prisoner. He sentenced her to six
months' imprisonment and bard labour.

MADRID, August 27.—The resignation of Gen.
San Miguel as Commandant of the Halberdiers has
been accepted. The nuptial benediction of the
Infanta Dona &want], and Prince Adalbert of
Bavaria took place yesterday.
The journals of the 24th do not convey any news
of importance. The marriage contract of Prince
Adalbert of Bavaria and Dona Amalia, the sign
ing of which was announced yesterday, sets
forth that the fortune the princess 19ringa her
royal husband is 7,000,000 reals (1,750,000 f.), and
that he is to allow her pin-money to the extent of
44,000 florins (the florin is 2f. 5934 a-year. The
Gazette says that the resignation of M. F. Madoz,
as judge of the Tribunal of Madrid has been ac-
cepted. According to the Diario, the national
guard has cost the municipalities very nearly
39,000,000 reals in the last two years. M. P. de
la Escosura, ex-minister, major of the national
guard of Madrid, and Borcerra and Camara, cap-
tains in the same force, had been formally sum-
moned to present themselves before a court-
martial.
According to the Diario Espanol the National
Guard had cost the Ayuntamientos alone upwards
of 39,000,000 of reals during the two last years.
The Gazette publishes the following bando of
General Zapatero, Captain-Generalof Catalonia
:
"Being convinced that the disastrous events which
lately took place in this city are to be ascribed in a great
measure to the machinations of the turbulent directors
of the operatives, who, availing themselves of their per.
nicious influence over the members of the different asso-
ciations, lead them astray by intimidation, terror, and
falsehood, describing themselves as the only persons in-
terested in their welfare ; having, moreover, examined
with special attention the character of associations which,
created it is true for a beneficent and philanthropic
purpose, have been converted into means of enrich-
ing private individuals and maintaining them in idle-
ness ; considering that if it be lawful, on the one
hand, to found societies whose members may assist
each other in their misfortunes, competitions, and in
cases of cessation of labour, those associations, on
the other hand, cannot be tolerated when they serve
to foment anarchy, the first consequence of which
is always prejudicial to the labouring classes,

and tranquillity, without which there can be no labour ;

DEATH OF CAPTAIN ONSLOW.

Captain John James Onslow (1834) died on the 24th
instant, at Blofield, near Norwich, in the sixty-first year
of his age. We take the following account of his ser-
vices from O'Byrne's " Naval Biography" :
" This officer entered the navy April 19, 1810, as
first-class volunteer on board the Surveillante, 36, Cap-
tain Sir George Ralph Collier, under whom he was for
some time actively employed on the north coast of Spain,
particularly in the boats at the capture of B3rmeo and
Deba. He continued in the Surveillante, in the capa-
city of midshipman, until April, 1812 ; and between
that period and the date of his promotion to the rank of
lieutenant, Sept. 5, 1316, was employed on the Brazilian,
Jamaica, and home stations in the Montague, 74, flag-
ship of the late Sir Manley Dixon, Aquilon, and Ceres
frigates, both commanded by Captain William Bowles ;
Araxes, 38, Captain George Miller Bligh ; and Boyne,
98, Captain Edmund Boger. He joined soon afterwards
the Conqueror, 74, bearing the fltg of Rear Admiral
Robert Plampin at St. Helena ; whence, at the close of
1317, he returned to England in the Iphigenia, 42.
From September, 1818, until superseded at his own re-
quest in September, 1819, he served in the Downs on
board the Alert s'oop, Captains Hoary John Leeke and
Charles Farwell ; and, on April 23, 1822, he attained
the rank of Commander. His next appointments were
July 22, 1824, to the Beaver, 8, on the Jamaica station,
where he remained about two years ; and, April 30,
1830, to the Clio, 18, fitting for South America. While
on that station Captain Onslow was sent by Rear-Ad-
miral Sir Thomas Baker to reclaim possession of the
Falkland Islands, which lapse of time had encouraged
the Buenos Ayreans and other foreigners to consider as
absolutely abandoned by the British. Arriving in De-
cember, 1832, at Port Egmont (West Falkland), he
exercised the rights of sovereignty, and employed his
boats i❑ examining Brett's Harbour, Byron's Sound,
and other anchorages as far to the westward as Point

Clio lay. He then proceeded to Berkeley Sound (East

de Janeiro with upwaeds of 888,000 dollars, June 3,
1833 ; and on the 17th of the same month was paid off.

TEL—Very little business has been done in this article,
and quotations are unaltered. A moderate quantity is
advertised for public sale next week.
SUGAR.—The market has ruled exceedingly dull, and
prices generally have receded fid to is per cwt on late rates
for the inferior kinds, but for the better qualities former
prices were realised. In the Refined market purchases
have been made with great caution, and holders have ap-
peared willing to accept lower terms. There have been a
few sales of crushed for exportation.
COFFER.—This article has been in rather less demand,
although the prices of most of the finer qualities continue
firm. At the late public sales fu:l rates were obtained for
both plantation and native Ceylon.
RICE.—The market has been rather active for fine clean
descriptions, at slightly improved rates, but for rough and
inferior qualities there is little demand, and prices have
been unaltered.
Runt.—The demand has been very limited, and prices
have been without alteration. Good Demerara 2s 5d to
2s 6il; mid to good Leeward, 2s 3d to 2s 4d per gallon.
SPICES.—The market generally has ruled dull, and at
the late public sales previous prices were barely sustained.
GINGER has been steady, and fine Jamaica was in de-
mand at fully previous rates.
SALTPETRE has been firm, and fully former prices were
realised, particularly for the low refractions.
TALLOW—The market has been very flat, and prices
have declined to P.Y.C. on the spot 53s 6d and last 3
months 50s 9d to 51s per cwt.

MILAN.

The Ece della Borsa of Milan has received a
formal warning from the Austrian authorities
to abstain in future from expressing opinions
contrary to the principles of the Imperial Govern-
ment and to public order, as also to avoid making
offensive remarks on the French Government.

A letter from Milan, in the Presse Beige, says i
—" The other day bills were found stuck on the
walls of the palaces Greppi, Traversa, and Poldi,
displaying in large characters the words :—‘ King
Victor Emmanuel for ever ! Cavour for ever !'
This of course caused great excitement among the
police authorities, who requested the proprietors
to have them removed. The latter replied that
as they had not stuck up the bills in question they
would not take the trouble to remove them ; where-
upon the police performed the operation them-
selves."
