THE WAR.

TITE following is an extract of a letter dated Galatz,
March 30:—" Nothing precise is known about the war
operations on this side of the Danube. All vessels in
Sulina have been sequestrated by the Russian Govern-
ment, and the mouth is barricaded by two strong chains
in consequence of the appearance outside of one English
and one French steamer sounding there."
MALTA, AWL 7.—lmportant news has reached this
island by the steamer Cyclops, which arrived here yester-
day from the fleet. The allied fleets reached Kavarna Bay
on the 26th ult. Eight line-of-battle ships (French) are
at anchor in line to the east of Varna, flanked by six
steamers. Further east are ten line-of-battle ships (Eng-
lish), with six steamers on their flank.
The Russians have crossed the Danube at Galatz, with
30,000 men, without opposition.
All the marines from the fleets are to be landed to pro-
tect Varna.

The Fury, Apollo, and Cyclops arrived at Kavarna on
the 28th.

The Cyclops brings news that the Tarks expressly left
a free passage to Hirsova, and, having surrounded them,
after a hard fight, one half of the Russians were cut to
pieces, and the remainder took to flight, and retreated
across the Danube.

The English brig Anne, from the Danube, while in tow
of the Crescent steamer, was fired on by the Russians, and
both she and the steamer were damaged.
A barque (English) has also been sunk by the Russians
while leaving the Danube, laden with grain. Her name
is not known.

VIENNA, APRIL B.—Accounts from Bucharest of the Ist
instant, report that the Russians were making great
efforts to push masses of troops across the Danube, near
Silistria. It was expected that by the 4th, they would
have concentrated 40,000 men and 130 guns in the camp
at Kalaradsch.

The Wanderer states, under the date of Bucharest, the
31st of March, that a battle had taken place at Tultscha,
which lasted five days—from the 23d to the 27th inclu-
sive—with great loss to the Russians. It is certain that
the Russian Government observes a strict silence on the
subject, and almost equally so that a serious affair has
taken place ; since, letters from Constantinople of the sth
state that great rejoicings were taking place there, in
consequence of the successes obtained on the banks of the
Danube.

The intelligence of the recal of the Greek Minister, and
of the expulsion from Constantinople of all Greek subjects
who would not consent to place themselves under the ex-
clusive protection of the Porte, is confirmed.
Czernavoda, a fortress in the Dobrudscha, had been
evacuated by the Turks.
BBRLIN, APRIL 9.—Yesterday a despatch was forwarded
to St. Petersburg, announcing that the King had used
every exertion to induce the continental powers to enter
into new negotiations, but that he had failed, and could
obtain nothing till the Russians should have evacuated
the principalities.
The object of the negotiations with Baron Hess had been
to determine the course of the two German powers in case
either of them should take part in the war. It was
settled that, if the Austrian troops should pass through
Bohemia, the Prussian forces should enter Galicia and
Bohemia.

The following news is in a letter from Constantinople,
dated the 25th March : —The English steamer Sampson,
which had been sounding on the coast of Circassia, re-
turned on the 21st, bringing tidings of a complete victory
gained by the Circassians over the Russians. Early in
March the Circassians, provided with arms and ammuni-
tion, attacked the Russians, and, after a severely contested
battle, drove them into their castles on the coast. These
castles were surrounded and repeatedly attacked during
four continuous days. Finally the Russians, fearing to be
cut to pieces, blew up their powder magazines, and sought
shelter in ships. The captain of the Sampson reports
that when some Russians had abandoned two block-houses
situated on a hill, the Circassians threw themselves on
them and cut the whole to pieces. The same steamer had
spoken with a Russian vessel proceeding to Sebastopol,
laden with fugitive soldiers. The loss of the Russians had
been considerable. The coast of Circassia is at present
free from the enemy. Two hundred and sixty-seven ves-
sels ' arrived this day from the Black Sea, only four of
which were in ballast. Fifteen thousand men are ex-
pected from Egypt, who will immediately on arrival be
forwarded to Batoum under the escort of English and
French steamers.

IRS IN FRANCE.

Lord Raglan and his Royal Highness the Duke of Cam-
bridge left London, on Monday night, last week, by the
half-past eight mail train for Dover, en route for the East.
They arrived at Calais on Tuesday morning, at one o'clock,
where they were received by the Hon. H. Howard, attache
to the British embassy, and the Vicomte de Toulongeon,
and immediately left by a special train for Paris, where
they arrived about nine o'clock.
In the evening, the Royal Duke, Lord Raglan, and the
principal officers of their respective staffs, dined at the
Tuileries ; and, next day, the Emperor, accompanied by
the Duke of Cambridge, reviewed, in the Champ de Mars,
the army of Paris, the effective force of which amounted
to 25,000 men.

At twelve o'clock the various corps of the army of Paris
debouehed from the Bridge of Jena, and the avenue of the
Mothe-Piquet, and took up their positions on the ground.
Between the bridge and the Ecole Militaire, throughout
the entire length of the Champ de Mars, with the right
resting on the bridge, extended five lines of infantry,
forming two divisions of two brigades each, and one
brigade of reserve. The whole of the infantry, counting
twenty-four battalions, and four companies of engineers—
about 18,000 men in all—were under the orders of Ge-
neral Levasseur, assisted by Renault and Bourgon, generals
of division, and Marulay, Repond, Ripert, Esterhazy, and
Courand, generals of brigade. Those five lines were com-
posed of three battalions of chasseurs; five of light in-
fantry, thirteen battalions of the line, and three of the
Paris Guards and the Gendarmerie d'Elite. The cavalry,
forming two divisions, four brigades, and forty-five
squadrons, namely, eight of chasseurs, four of hussars, six
of guides, eight of dragoons, eight of cuirassiers, eight of
carabineers, and three of the mounted gendarmerie—drew
up in four lines in front of the infantry, with the right
resting on the Ecole Militaire, the left on the Bridge of
Jena, and leaving a large open space in front of the grand
stand. These forty-five splendid squadrons were under
the command of General Norte, assisted by Peray, Ma-
rion, and the Duke de Montobello, general of brigade.
Between the left of the infantry and the right of the
1 cavalry, in one single line, with the Ecole Militaire to the
rear and fronting the Bridge of Jena, were stationed seven
battalions of artillery—six foot and one horse—with forty-
two guns, under the orders of Brigadier-General Anvity.
The total of the force under arms was about 25,000 men.
At half-past twelve o'clock the Empress proceeded to
the grand stand in the Champ de Mars, where she and
her attendants took their places. At one o'clock the Em-
peror made his appearance at the bridge of Jena. He had
on his right hand the Duke of Cambridge, and on the left
Lord Raglan, followed by a numerous staff composed of
English and French officers, all in full dress. As they
made their appearance on the Champ de Mars the drums
beat to arms, and the bands struck up "God Save the
Queen," and " Partant poor la Syne," which were alter-
nately played, and cries of " Vice I'Empereur !" and
" Vive les Anglais !" were heard. The Emperor and the
Duke of Cambridge rode in front of the line, the former
occasionally conversing with his royal highness, and the
attention of the foreign officers apparently engaged in
examining, not perhaps without admiration, the gallant
appearance of the troops so long the rivals of the English,
now, and let us hope for a long time to come, their firm
and faithful allies. When the cortege had completed the
survey of the whole, the five lines of infantry broke up
and formed into columns of battalions, with their right
on the bridge of Jena. The line of cavalry, forming into
squadrons, took position to the rear of the artillery, and
the artillery broke up into half batteries.. The Emperor
and the Duke then took up their stand in front of the
pavilion, where the Empress, the ladies in attendance, and
the officers of the household were seated, to witness the
defiling of the troops. The infantry opened the march
and the cavalry closed it. Nothing could be finer than
the appearance of the hussars, the guides, the cuirassiers,
and the carabineers, as they swept in long order from the
bridge to the Ecole Militaire, and as the different corps
passed where the imperial and princely commanders were
stationed, each chief made his signal of courtesy. The
soldiers seemed inspired by the consciousness of united
strength ; they sat erect in their saddles, and the horses
themselves appeared to tread the ground with pride.
They dashed on squadron after squadron, and troop after
troop, with the banners waving, and plumes dancing, in
long perspective ; and they passed before the imperial
pavilion with the cry of Vive l'Empereur !" The de-
filing lasted more than an hour and a half. When it was
over, the troops resumed the positions they first occupied
on the ground, and when the Emperor passed on his re-
turn to the Tuileries, the infantry on the right and the
cavalry on the left presented arms to His Majesty. At
about a quarter to four the whole were on their return to
their respective quarters.

THE COMMISSARIAT CHEST AccouNT.—By a parlia-
mentary paper just printed of all the sums which have
been received into the Commissariat Chest, and which
have been paid out of the same, between the Ist of April,
1862, and the 31st of March, 1853, it appears that the
total cash balance on the latter day was £567,258 ss.
SEIZITRE OF MARINE STEAM-ENGINES.—A seizure has
been effected at Glasgow, on the premises of Messrs.
Napier, of two pairs of marine steam-engines, of 400 and
450-horse power, adapted for screw line-of-battle ships or
heavy frigates, manufactured under contract for the
Russian government. It appears that, as in the case of
other recent seizures, some attempt has been made to set
up a sub-contract for transferring these engines to a
Hamburg house, Mere and Co., in order to evade their
confiscation as Russian property.
It has been announced by telegraph from Marseilles that
both the Himalaya and Indus are engaged in conveying
troops between Malta and Gallipoli. The Ripon, accord-
ing to the present arrangements, will take out the India
and China mails of the 20th inst. She will, however, take
out ammunition for the Eastern war, and the baggage of
Brigadier-General Airey:

MAGNITUDE OF RUSSlA.—Russia is the greatest un-
broken empire for extent that ever existed, occupying vast
regions of Europe and Asia, and nearly one-sixth of the
habitable globe. It is 41 times the size of France, and
138 times that of England ; yet it was too small for the
ambition of Alexander, who is reported to have said, " I
insist upon having the Baltic to skate upon, the Caspian
Sea for a bathing-place, the Black Sea a wash-band basin,
and the North Pacific Ocean as a fish-pond." He en-
croached on Tartary for a pasture, on Persia and Georgia
for a vineyard, on Turkey for a garden, on Poland for a
farm, on Finland and Lapland as a hunting ground, and
took part of North America as a place of banishment for
offenders.

DESERTION OP MEN PROM TUE TRANSPORTS AT
DEPTFORD.—Much inconvenience has been felt among the
fleet of transports lying at Deptford by an extensive deser-
tion of men into the navy. Boats from the several naval
rendezvous in the river are nightly cruising round the
ships, inducing the men to leave. The Bombay has lost
20 seamen, the Dunbar 15, the Caduceus 16, and the Pride
of the Ocean 15, in this way. We understand that Mr.
Dunbar, the owner of some of the ships, is taking steps to
obtain redress from the government.—Shipping and Mer-
cantile Gazette.

MOVEMENTS OP TROOPS.— DEESTS.--011 Thursday
morning last the depot of the 88th Regiment of infantry
left Burnley by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, at
7 16, and arrived in Manchester a little before nine o'clock.
The depOt consists of 6 officers, 250 men, and 30 women.
At Manchester they were joined by the depot of the 7th
Fusiliers, from the Regent-road barracks, consisting of 2
officers, 160 non-commissioned officers and men, and a few
women and children. About 855 A.M. both depOts left
the London-road station, Manchester, in a very long train
drawn by two engines, on the London and North-Western
line, for Birmingham, en route for Winchester and
Basingstoke, but it was rot known here whether any por-
tion of those dep6ts was to embark for the east, or whether
their quarters were merely removed from Lancashire to
Hampshire. Manchester Guardian.

The Albatross, Brew steam-ship, hired from a mercan-
tile company at Liverpool, and chartered by the Admiralty
for six months' service, came into Portsmouth harbour on
Saturday from Queenstown, to be armed as a man-of-war
transport, and fitted and manned with an efficient crew for
the Eastern expedition.
On Saturday morning at four o'clock, the fourth com-
pany of the 19th Foot proceeded to Portsmouth, thence to
embark in the Euxine for Gallipoli. Another detachment
left the Tower yesterday, travelling by the North-Western
Railway to Liverpool, where they are to embark for Galli-
poli. The main body of the regiment is expected to em-
bark to-day at Portsmouth. On Saturday afternoon the
third company of the 19th, which had been quartered at
Kensington, marched to the Tower. The regiment leaves
400 recruits to be disciplined before joining.
By letters from the Black Sea fleet, we learn that one-
third of the executive officers belonging to the gunroom of
each ship are ordered to be discharged, to serve in the
Baltic fleet, and are coming in the Apollo troop-ship.
There will be about 00 mates and midshipmen.
The launch of the Royal Albert, 131, screw steam-ship.
has been postponed to Saturday, May 13, when it will
take place in the presence of the Queen, his Royal High-
ness Prince Albert, and other members of the royal family.
The ceremony of naming the ship will be performed by
the Princess Royal.

The launch of the Cossack screw steam-frigate, pierced
for 30 guns, with one large pivot-gun, all on the upper
deck, and built for the Emperor of Russia by Mr. Pitcher,
shipbuilder, Northfleet, took place on Saturday, at half-
past two o'clock ; she was navigated to moorings along-
side the Salsette receiving-ship, where she remains for the
present, and will be completed for active service. She ap-
pears a remarkably finely built vessel, on good lines.

PARAMATTA, which is one of the troop-ships
taken up by the government officer at this port, is now
going into dock, in order to embark cavalry soldiers,
horses and baggage. This has been the sole cause of her
detention, and not deficiency of crew, as stated by a con-
temporary—indeed she has had her full complement of
seamen on board during the last three weeks.
REMARKABLE PREDICTION.—The following is taken
from an old vohime of Predictions written in the 15th
century, and now in the possession of a gentleman re-
siding at Chard, Somerset :
"In twice two hundred years the Bear
The Crescent will assail ;
But if the Coch and Bull unite,
The Bear will not prevail.
•
In twice ten years again,
Let Islam know and fear,
The Cross shall stand,
Tile Crescent wane, dissolve, and disappear."
