It is not improbable that the porto may raise an objection to the passage of these vessels through tho Boaphorns, although, of course, they will not receive their armaments liefore reaching Bebastopol.

The Anacria and the Kozursky are bnilt on somewhat similar liues to the Adler, but according to the contract will not exceed a speed of twenty -ono knots. London News. |
