Ellsworth, May |. The steamer Cimbria
Ii quietly at anchor at Southwest Hsrbor, in the
same position. There has been little or no COM
municaiion with the shore. except purchasing of
FRESH provisions The weather however has been
very stormy Some of the Russian officers speak
of making excursions inlsud, should the weather
clear during their stay. Capt. Babe nhausen ex-
presses the opinion that the men are destined for
the Pacific coast, to man Russian vessels already
in the Pacific, and that they are waiting here till
it is determined where to land them and how to
send them. Several Of the Russian officers have
before been on the Pacific coast Of Mexico and
also in CT ina and Japan. To dsy, the Russian
commander has been in teegt aphic c1rrespon-
dence with the Russian consulate at New York
city.
WAsHING1oN, May l. Intelligence Of tie ar
rival of the Climb ia of the coast of Maine, has
been officially communicated To the government
but the informant does not furnish details of her
presence and purposes. Several naval officers
think that the movements Of the vessel are signi-
fcant, tending to show that in event OF war be-
tween: Russia and England it will be found that
the Cinbiis has on both small arms and five or
SIX rliled guns, for naval warfare, to prey on the
British mt rchantmen, and that = declaration of
war would also doubtless be followed by the an
nouncement that vessels in other parts of the
world. similarly equipped and armed by the Rus.
sian government, hitherto unsupported, would de-
velop into Russian cruisers.
