RUSSIA AND THE WAR.
Accoudikcv to a letter from the German Baltic, addressed to the Cologne Gazette, the German shipping is suffering 1 severely from tfio -Rnsso-Turfcish war. * A Great number of vessels from the German Baltic were till the war engaged in the carrying trade from the llnssian ports of thy Black Sea to England, Holland, ami Belgium. This trade has ceased completely. Many other German vessels wore in the carrying trade from Biga, Bevel, Loban, and St. Petersburg!! to England, France, and Belgium. They are now mostly idle, as many English and Dutch firms reduce as much as possible their relations with the Eussian Baltic ports, out of fear of a conflict between England Russia, and consequently a blockade of the llnssian ports. For this reason, also, the business of shipbuilding formerly so considerable is almost completely interrupted in the German Baltic.
