Parliament resumed its sittings last night, after
The Easter recess. The accommodations for the
roops at Gallipoli, and question respecting Rus
dan prizes, are the only points that were mooted
respecting the war. A circular having appeared in
he Paris MoniteW, to the effect that Russian ships
hat left the Baltic ports and put to sea before the
18th April, should be allowed to discharge and
return to any Russian open port, or neutral
barbor, without hindrance, Mr.. Miner Gibson
Asked the government whether it was true, as re-
ported, that the English government had adopted
similar measure, and whether in that case, it would
hx be necessary to liberate all those Russian yes
s that had been said to be detained, as they must
al have left Baltic ports before the 18th. Sir j.
Graham in reply, said he would give an answer to-
morrow, (this day. An occurrence has since be-
come known which will not tend to be in favor of
the Russian traders being liberated The boat of
the Furious, English steam corvette, bearing flag
|of truce, which went to Odessa to take away the
English Consul there, was, in despite Of all law and
custom, fired ct by the Russian forts-happily with
out effect-six shots passing over and near her.
The Furious was about to stand in and return the
fire, but deserving Russian frigate from the mast
head made for her, with the intention Of capturing
kher. Favored by good breeze, the forty gun Rus

The Fury another steamer which has been watch
ing Sebastopol, has had narrow escape. On the
18th inst, in face Of Sebastopo harbor, she took
Russian trading schooner, and was about to board
another, when the stir within the harbor made 1t
evident they were decoys.' In fact, before tn
Furys boats could board the second schooner, two
figates two gun briggs and two steamers gave chase
The Fury was compelled to dropAer prize, keeping
sAe crew prisoners. Shots were exchanged with the
foremost frigate but without result on either side
The bombardment of Odessa Is not confirmed,
though the departure of the feet was imminent on
the 18th On the l4th, the feet was still at ha'
varna.
Our latest adyices from Constantinople are by
telegraph to the 18th, by letter to the 18th April,
inclusive. The whole of the first division OF
the English forces, excepting the artillery and
cavalry. ha arrived OF Gallipoli. 10000 French
and 5000 English had landed. The squad.
ron of Admiral Bruat, with 5000 men, had
boon snoken of the Island OF Tenedos, and has ere
this arrived Louis Napoleon has declared that ne
will send 2Oe 900 men, If necessary. The Zonaves
are rather unruly-three Of them have been shot at
Capoli for violating Turkish women. The Turks
are alarmed at the energy Of their allies. The death
of the pacha of Gaipoli is thus prettily given IN
letter from Constantinople:-
