French armies, consisting Of about 000el
men, including several regiments Of cavalrF
and formidable detachment Of artillery
will be encamped near the seat of war.
Sir Charles Napier has hosted his flag, pre-,
ivisonally, on beard the Princess Royal, 81
as Admiral OF the Baltic fleet. and now
reinforced by Admiral Corry's squadron
will, after assembling al the More, proceed
at once to the Baltic in time before the ic,
breaks, to prevent the junction Of the thret
divisions Of the Russian fleet Il seem:
/ that there are about nine or ten Russar
4 line-oi- battle ships at Rcvel, and about tht
same number al iielsingfors, on the opposite
side Of the Gull, and u third division at Cron.
staGt As the ice breaks at Revel week
or ten lays before it is navgable at Cron.
stadt. it viii be highly important to prevent
a junction oil the three divisions. The --latest
news fFem Resel describes the ice as al.
ready breaking, but the sea.on is too early
/ for the ships to get away, and at presen,
/ they cannot ret refuge in any other ports
We have no doubt that Sir Charles Napier
will make an attempt upon Cronstadt, but
! his success must mainly depend upon
reaching the Gulf Of Finland before the
weather breaks up, and OF course We shall
not allow the Car to procrastinateaor gain
time. The people Of England, however,
will not now be satisfied with the mere
evacuation Of the Prineipa!!tes. The ex-
pcnses already incurred by Great Britain
and France, and also By the Sultan. amount
to millions, and the Gar must reimburse
these expenses, and give Us very solid Sc
curity for his good behavior for many years
