report from the Cnmea is warlike. Admiral

orders TO reopen their fires, and that for some

that the Russians and Turks (the latter victo-
rious) had had hot battle on the Drobodga,
that eight Austrian ships had been fired into
off Gali.ia by the Russians, and that Austria
had demanded an explanation.
The Lord Mayor OF London had given a ban

Sir Charles defended himself and assailed the
Administration most bitterly.
Nothing from Vienna, and no peace signs

The steamer Great Britain, was about to
leave England, with 1850 troops. Other
steamers were getting ready with larger COM
pliments. Lord Cowley, British Minister at
Paris, had made known to the French. Gov
ernment that Canada had contributed Geo. 900
for the widows and orphans of the war, and
that half of the amount was in his hands for it.
1t is said ia very high authority always, J
that Prince Menchikof has been ordered to
attack 8alaklava and Eupatoria, and that the
Russian Grand Dukes, with Osten Sacken,
will be on hand toinspire the Soldiery. The
ague holds one of them. Grand Duke Michael
is down with it at Chersone, and Grand Duke
Nicholas only is in The Crimea. On the other
hand Omcr Hasha is busy fortifying Euparto,
ia, and as soon as that is done, he will march
upon Sevastopol. If then we don't have grand
battle, or series of grand battles, there is no
safe guessing. Indeed the very latest assures
us that Canrobert finds difficulty in restraining
the French Soldiers, who are ready to storm
Sevasiopol and take it ofcourse.
We have reported that the English mission
aries had been expelled from Poland by Mich
olas. Further news assure us, that he had siez-
