THE EXPRESS, THE TURKISH ARMY IN THE CRIMEA. (nom TIM snictu, come! Rims.) II DAILY EUPATORIA, Mace 12. I am glad to say I was mistaken as to the sending out the fourth flag of truce, accompanied by Colosid Simmons, &o. These gentlemen confined themselves to an inspection of the fortifications ; but Omer Pacbs did send a considerable quantity of tobacco and some cases of wine to the Russian outposts as a present for Prince liadiviL The officer who accompanied them learnt that the captain of Tartars, who deserted the ether day, during one of the conferences, as I men tioned in my last letter, has been relating all he knew of the place, the force in it, &c., going eo minutely into the matter as to recount the most salient points in the private life of movers' of the officers. He must have proved quite a godsend for the Russians, as I suspect the greater part of their information must have been derived hitherto from Tartar peasants; whose ignorance and stupidity of course vastly diminished the value of their accounts. This fellow seems to have been a man of consider able =tenet", and more or less au fag of all that pulsed. His getting off so easily is • capital illustration of the total want of and organisation which pervades many rpi s tr a t i ments of the Turkish army. When they landed here, in an enemy's country, and established their head.quarters in a town where themes' of the poi elation is at least open to suspicion, and in which great numbers of Russian born subjects, attached to the Russian cause by every tie by which men's hearts and heads can possibly be bo un d, are still residing, one would have supposed that the very first thing dons would be the establishment of a good police, to preserve order and cleanliness, and above all, to look after spies and traitors. r With Relates,' within a few miles of me, I cannot, as an Englishman, blame the Turks very strongly for inattention to the first two points ; bat as a resident here, with my mind and limbs dependent on the safety of the place, if in no other character, I may be allowed to dwell a little upon the lest. Omer Pacha certainly cannot be 'ipotesi to do everythieg himself in per son, and from the imperil' of Ids &lag so it re melts that the town is.

The Chareurs i Pied arrived too late to set with their comrades ; and one battalion of the s o t Regiment of &nave*, and that considerably weeksoed in numbers from the winter campaign, had tebsir the whole brunt of the affair. These men ad vanced nobly, took the first pits, and established the line of communication between them and the trench. The order was then given to advance up the hill, which they did at a rapid pace. The upper large pit was abandoned on their arrival, and the battahms went on almost to the foot of the principal redoubt. At this moment a tremendous line of musketry owed upon them ; the upper part of the %melon to boon fire. Several battalions of the Is evident anticipation of the attack, had bests seneashi in the redoubt, and now from above did heal excess tion on the devoted &eaves. The supports were called for, but none appeared, and nothing was leR for the br ave Zouaves but to retire. Out of the be► talioo, only 600 strong, as many as nine officers sad 160 men were either killed or wounded. The oleo nese of the encounter was shown by the number ef bayonet wounds. One company had all its Awns and all the sergeants but one placed Aces de combed. The British, from their position on the left, took no put in the affair. The Light Division was under arms, and the several regiments in their ap pointed places as a reserve, but were not employed. Maoy of the men, especially those from the Emerald Isle, appeared anxious to come to closer quarters with the Russians, if only to do honour to the patron saint, Patrick, whose fête they had not ,forgotten to celebrate. I need not say that general sympathy was felt for the Zouaves, who, throughout the cam paign in the Crimes, have been ',constantly conspicuous on account of their activity and bravery. Some of their wounded were taken to the hospitals of the nearest English regiments, where they were treated with every attention until they could be moved to their own ambulance. The event is the more to be regretted as the attack must be repeated under less favourable circumstances; and by every failure on our part, however unimportant apparently the under taking, the enemy acquire greater confidence. These ride ambuscades are not only a source of serious an noyance to the Preach in their front, but the riflemen will have the power of enfilading a part of our newadvanced workon Frenchman's Hill, and can also in some degree, from their position, prevent its comple tion down the side of the ravine, to be connected with the corresponding part of the French line. It is generally . reported that the attack will be r this evening, March 18th. General Canrobsee pealed p aid a lengthened visit to the advanced UNA. The British Light Division is again ordered to be under arms and ready for action at a moment's notion, A large body of the French Imperial Guard have moved over to the right. There has also been some talk of an attack on the part of the enemy. About eight battalions were observed this morning to be formed on the north side of the roadstead on shelving plain to our right and below the Star Fort, and this force was afterwards conveyed by the steamer and boats across the harbour to the south side. Perhaps these were no more than the ordinary relief of the troops in garrison. The Russian batte ries have continued remarkably silent. During the last 48 hours hardly a dozen shots have been fired from the batteries along their whole lino of defence, and many of the embrasures have been masked. Is there a want of ammunition ? or are the troops other wise engaged? A rumour has been going through the camp—which I could not trace to any reliable source, beyond the report of a deserter—that Prince Mentchikotf is deli No particulars are given. The obstruction across the Great Harbour, whit was lately begun near Fort St. Nicholas, h as boon extended to within a short distance of the north side. Ai present it terminates a short distance from the point of land forming the west born of the bay near Fort Souks's. It appears to consist of a series of floats, and debris of old hulks, connected for the pur pose of forming a third line of obstruction against the advance of hostile ships into the roadstead. It is said that several vessels have been sunk here. The masts of nine ships-of-war of various sizes, not to mention the small steamers, can still be counted in the roadstead and harbour. Although the work of warfare is pursued as hotly as ever in our front, the renewed health and vigour of men and officers are leading them to seek for other excitement when off duty. There were races at the beginning of the week near the small village of Kenny, which Hes about half-way between the bead-quarters road from Balaklava and the Monastery of St. George; and these have been followed by other races in the rear of the Fourth Divi sion, at which. in spite of unpropitious and cold weather, a large crowd from both services, and of all mite, assembled. There was a cold biting wind from the north, and the winter clothing was brought into requisition. Motley was the only wear; the costume of regulation was seemingly with one accord, from high to low, thrown snide. The course was excellently arranged, and, all the stones having been cleared away, was in capital condition. It would be difficult to say which were seen in the most curious variety—the horses, ranging from the English tho rough-bred, or highly-conditioned Arab charger of the French officer, to the worn-out hat-horse ; or the men, from all climes, and in costumes of every ima ginable cut and colour. I send you • "correct pro gramme" of the races, which may be interesting to some of your readers. These sports have at least the utility of diverting the thought from the monotonous " off duty" life in the Crimea, and are the best indi cation of the generally improved condition of the troops in the field. The racecourse wan made on the aide of the hill, which very gradually slopes down toward the ravine now known in camp as the Sailor's Ravine, the naval brigade still being encamped there, and curved round the present position of the 14th and 39th Regiments. These regiments have sow been completely brought up from Balaklava, the last de tachment of the 14th having come up on Thursday last. These are the only regiments entirely hutted. The huts are arranged in four row., so that three streets are thu formed. _ _ _ _ . Although on the whole the health and spirits of both officers and men have kept pace with the im provement in their food, shelter, and comfort, yet there is a considerable amount of fever prevailing in camp. It does not appear to be generally of a severs kind; at any rate, the deaths aro not numerous, and it presents none of the unusual and unmanageable features which accompanied the dysentery, with its abject mental and physiesr prostration, which pre vailed some time ago. Disease of a fetal character still lingers in a few regiments. The 95th Regiment have been suffering severely, and is now so reduced in numbers that there is a talk of its removal from the front. This regiment has lost two surgeons rue °naively within the last three months, and two of the assistant surgeons axe now seriously ill. In some of the divisions the reduction in the numbers on the sick list is very remarkable. In the Light Division it is reduced to less than 10 per cent., including all ail ments, sad no invalids have been sent away of late. The weather has been very favourable and mild WAN, early part of the week, but on the 16th the wind changed to the north, and it has since been damp and cold. A melancholy occurren oe took plaeeon the n ight of the 17th last. During the atteckof the French on the right, Baron Le Blanc, of the 9th Regiment, advanced too far in front of his division (the 3rd), and losing his way by some accident when attempting to return to camp, got in front of the French sentries. It appears that be was challenged no lees than three times, bat, it 1. stated, gave no reply. The sentry fired, and he fell dead. The ball entered the brain. He was ap pointed surgeon in 1852, and was an active and respected officer in his regiment. Another incident occurred to-day (March 18th), which, it is feared, will lead to a lose of life which might have been avoided. Two sailors visiting the front from motives of cariosity, and evidently strangers, advanced too far along the Woronsod road, which passes into B.bastopol along the left ravine, and only discovered their mistake from hearing the shots of the Russian riflemen whiz about them. It was almost aidangerona to ran back se to advance, so they hastily got into one of the caves with which theatres°, the limestone alba this ravine am thickly Madded. Here the Rainless completely besieged them. Their dangerous predicament was observed from Omsk% sad as it wee evident that, if not removed before nightfall from' their position, they would be messed aad made Omens by the enemy, an officer and three men in the Greenhill atta c k i !volunteered to fetch them and cover their retreat. I This was effected, but in its accomplishment, the officer received awound in the chest, and, it is reported,a dao gerous one. The name of the officer who thtut sacrificed himself I did sot hear, but he was said to belong to the 17th Regiment. This accident would have been prevented under ordinary circumstances, but the sailors evaded our sentries by having got down to an advanced part of the ravine through the second paral lel on Frenchman's Hill. Our allies are much more guarded than we ars, not only as to the approach of strangers, but also as regards the inspectioa of their works by those who could not be suspected of impro per motives. It is only by an order from very high authority, signed and countersigned, that any one not oo duty is permitted to enter the French trenches, and a person is always appointed to accompany a vista. ; our works can be entered by any one in the dress of either service, though of course subject to the surveillance oldie officer in command. Lieutenant-General Simpson joined the staff on the 14th inst., and has since been occupied in visiting the various positions of the camp in company with the quartermaster-general. It has been announced in orders that a proportion of the sealskin coats has been received, which officers can purchase at 81.8 e. each. This is rather late, and not very liberal, con sidering a fortnight of the month of March has passed. The officers who left England during the winter months were provided with this article of dress and other things free of cost before they came out, pour les appareneee perhaps; those who were enduring the muter campaign , with the exception of a favoured few, saw their fresh comrades arrive in comfortable costume, and are now offered the same advantages at a price which will no doubt cause the articles to remain in the stores where they are col lected. The public animals in charge of regiments and departments are about to be given up to the new land transport corps. This most lead to the removal of many of the difficulties particular regiments have I been labouring under during the winter. A board of health has been constituted in general orders, . consisting of the inspector-general and the principal • medical officers of divisions, for the purpose of exer cising general sanitary control, and reporting regu , truly upon subjects connected with this duty. The following changes have occurred is the staff :—Lieu • tenant and Capt. R. Lindsay, Scots Fusilier Guards, . has been appointed A.D.C. to General Simpson ; i Captain Forger, 4th Dragoon Guards, has been ap pointed A.D.C. to Col. Hodge,oommanding the brigade . of Heavy Cavalry and Captain Portal, 4th Light ; Dragoons, A.D.C. to Colonel Lord G. Paget, com , mending the Brigade of Light Cavalry; Captain • Lowry, D.A.A.G., has left for Scutari to do duty , under Brigadier-General Lord W. Peale. MONDAY. MARCH 19. Neither the expected attack of the French against the Mamelon redoubt or outworks, nor the Rus sian attack talked of against our work', happened last evening. Soon after dark the French opened on the left a more vigorous bombardment against the town than has yet been attempted. All their new mortar batteries opened, and a terrific discharge followed. The air was alive with shells. A series of cascades of stars, as it were, played into the town, falling with such regularity, that seen from the distance of the right attack, it appeared more like &few d'artsftee than the discharge of so much heavy metal. Behind the batten lee of minor weight some of the large 13-inch mortar works were opened, the shells from which rose to an amazing height before they fell on the devoted town. The crash of their explosion reverberated among the hills. This coati nued shelling was kept up for some hours, and must have caused vast destruction. The fire of the Russian riflemen against the embrasures of the advanced works, active enough at first, gradually subsided. But the most wonderful part of the spectacle was the almost total absence of any flash from the Russian batteries. A complete silence reigned along their whole line. To fifty or a hundred 'belie thrown from the French, and from some of the works on Greenhill, scarcely one replied from the Russians. This formed so remarkable a contrast with the usual activity of the enemy's batteries, that it became the subject of much speculation. Whether there wee really a dearth of ammunition, or whether from sash a terrible shower of metal it had been thought per dent for the gunners to conceal themselves as they best could until the hottest part of the storm was over, was equally uncertain. During the French attack on the night of the 14th instant, an Irishman, who had been two years in Sebastopol, managed to effect his escape to our lines, and he represented that there was great apprehension in the garrison respect ing our opening the ■ew batteries. Whatever the cause, while an uninterrupted shower of 'hells was being poured into the town, scarcely a shell or shot was returned to check the fire or in retaliation. There was equal silence preserved in the Redan, and in the works around the Malakhoff Tower, on the right— although from time to time the Lancaster and 21-gun batteries, and the French batter, at Inkermano, maintained a fire against the parties supposed to be working in the new Malinke redoubt. We must look be time alone for the explanation. The bom terimeat of last night oa the left is a sample of what vii be the fire against the town and arsenal, when till She new works are opened. This is talked of, from imy to day, as likely to occur speedily. The news to same from England by the next mail is anxiously looked for, as the probable effect of the Emperor's &mese, it is generally supposed, will become known on its arrival. that etionannioation takes plass in see way or ether ' between the town and the enemy. It requires amly an ordinary vigilant polies to prevent it, but that such a thing will ever exist here I have not the slightest hope. What goes by the name of police at present is occupied in litde l else than finding quarters and furniture for the paehu, and knows and cares nothing about the town in general or the people in it. This leads ass to say that I think a capital fault has been com mitted in allowing the Tartars to remain in Boma► eta, and not only this, but to crowd into it from the neighbouring villages. There are Dow about 40 OW here; of whom at least 30,000 are steeped in misery, which is every day booming more appellintit commission was formed, as I have already menos to inquire into their condition ; and it reports that the horrors that have come under its notice are beyond description. A feeble attempt has been made to alle viate the sufferings of these unfortunate people by a partial distribution of dry biscuit; but this is only postponing for a short period the catastrophe whi ch mast sooner or later take place. They are crowded in masses in the small houses and narrow streets of the town, in the most horrible state of filth, and suffering from every disease that dirt and hanger, and foul air can engender, without an eye to pity, oe a hand to help them. Medical aid they have non.; the Turks have not got it for their own soldiers; and, even if it existed, where would be the use of it without food, clothing, or shelter? The abomina tions and stench of the quarters inhabited by the Tartars surpass everything that has ever yet come under my notice, although a short residents in Turkey is generally sufficient to familiarise one with the extreme of every possible description of nastiness. The dirty habits of the Turkish soldiers are aggravating the nuisance daily ; and, in short, there is every prospect that when the hot weather sets in, if we are still here, the plague will est in with it, sweep away all the Tartan, and at least half the army. To suppose for one moment that we can ssupe some fearful epidemic would argue either ir =ranee of all the known laws of health or expecte d= of a striking miracle. Dozens of families are Crowded pell-mell in wretched huts, opening on small eourt-yerds, which exhale every hour of the day and sight the vilest gases from two or three feet of cesspool wed dungheap, the dead and dying, sick and healthy, living altogether in one loathsome mass of rags and dirt. The haggard looks, the sunken eyes, tightened skin of the wretches who crawl in the streets or crowd to the quay, in the hope of earning a biscuit or a piastre by carrying something for the Turkish sol diers, would excite pity, if pity were of any use, or if there was anybody here whose pity was not long ago dried up. In the interest of humanity alone, if the step were not prompted by considerations rela tive to the safety of the army, the Tartars should have been shipped off to Varna, and Baltehik and Bourg's, by the returning transports. What use are they here? Their seining in has proved their sympathy with the Turks certainly, but of what use is their sym pathy ? The Turks canna arm them, nor can they Amid them ; and I do not myself see very clearly how they will feed themselves, once Sir F. Lyons withdraws the transports. In fact the Turkish army should be the last in Europe to gather round them a starving population in a fortified town. The best organised army in the world finds diffi culty enough in providing for its fighting men, its flick, and its wounded, in an enemy's country, when dependent for its supplies on the sea, without burden ing itself with 40,000 men, women and children in the last extreme of misery ; the worst organised should have shrunk from the task in righteous diffi dent, of its own capabilities. News was received here last night—apparently well founded, because the pashas were all on the alert, and the troops ready at a moment's notice—that five divisions are being col lected within three or four hours of Eupatoria, with between 200 and 300 pieces of artillery, many of them siege guns, for the purpose of once more attack ing the place and carrying it at all hazards, and at any amt. In all probability they will commence by a vigor ous bombardment. Picture to yourself for one moment the horrors that will itriEsize come plunging into the narrow streets t poorer quarters of the town, burying hun dreds in the ruins at every shot. I fully expect scenes will yet take plasm here such as have not been witnessed stem the Dinsmore of Magdeburgb, or the storming of IsmaiL I do not know upon whose shoulders the responsibility ought to fall, bat who ever he may be his burden will not be very easy certainly. March 13.—Omer Puha, accompanied by Colonel Simmons, went this morning to Balaklava in the Valorous. He returns to-night or to-morrow morn ing. Humours of an approaching attack are still afloat. DESPATCHES FROM LORD RAGLAN. (PROM LAST X MKT'S BOPP LIMO= TO THE " GAZITTIL") WAR DEPARTMENT, Aram 2. Lord Panmore hu this day received two de spatches, and their enclosures, of which the following are copies, addressed to his lordship by Field Marshal the Lord Raglan, 0.C.8.: Before Sebastopol, March 20, 1855. My Lord,—ln my despatch of the 17th instant I reported to your lordship the progress made in forming the parallel constructed to unite the right of our right attack with the left of the French on the Inkermann heights. The contest of the latter with the enemy for the possession of the rifle pits in their immediate front was renewed after dark on that night, and was con tinued for several hours, the fire being excessively heavy, particularly of musketry, and considerable lose must have been sustained by our allies I fear, as well aa by the enemy, who continue to hold the am buscades; but the French persevere, notwithstanding, in working forward, and are appro aching the Mame ion, on which the Russians are busily engaged in budding • formidable work, though frequently inter rupted by our batteries and times of the French. On the night of the 17th the English parallels were not attacked, but the fire to which I have above alluded was so continuous, that the whole force was either under arms or ready to turn out. I inclose the returns of casualties to the 18th instant. It was currently reported yesterday that Prince Mentchikeff had died on his way to Moscow. I have not been able to ascertain if this report be founded ; bat it was so fully credited as to have beea despatched to Constantinople. Prince Gortchakoff is stated to have arrived at Baktchi-Serai, and to have assumed the command of the army. Reinforcements are reported to be on their way from Russia, and the 9th Division to have reached the neighbourhood of Eupatoria. The position of the Russian troops in the vicinity of she Tcheriaya remains unaltered. The progress of the railway continues to be satis factory, and we are already enabled to use it with considerable advantage, both for the conveyance of supplies and hutting, so far as the high ground some ' way on this side of Ladikoi.

THE BALTIC FLEET. PORTSMOUTH, APRIL 2. The departure of the bulk of the fleet for the Baltic suedes the greatest interest and activity at this port. A vast *amber of visitors have arrived daily for some days past, although the South Western and South Coast Railway Companies have not thought it worth their while to ar,ooramodate the publics with incursion trains, and reap the profit that such mina would produce to them. The watermen of the port have made quite a harvest with their boats; for, in addition to the demand upon them from visitors who wish to sail through the fleet, the wives and relations of those on board the ships have gone off to-day to the number of some thousands. Steamboats have also run all day long crowded with passengers. The provision merchants and other tradesmen of the port have been exceedingly busy in executing their numerous orders, working all day and the night of yesterday. Conarquent on the influx of so many visitors to the port, the dockyard and other government establishments have been crowded, the police having had • considerable addition of duty inapmed on them in con ducting so great an accent m of sigiagiri ov.r them. This afternoon hear-Admiral Berkeley, C. 8., M.P., Senior Sea Lord of the Admiralty, went out to Spitheed in the Vivid steam yacht, and wor t on board the flag-ship Doke of Wellington, returning into harbour again. The hour of the departure of the fleet to-morrow for the Downs is expected to be one o'clock, directly after the crews have had their dinners, but no precise time is yet named. A number of seamen and marines for the ships of the fleet were seat out to Spitheed today, fa the Pigmy steamer. An order arrived in the dockyard yesterday afteraoon from the Admiralty for the Osborne (lateVicteria and Albert) royal yacht to be got reedy for her Majesty's wee by this day week, when it was to sail for the Downs for her Majesty's use, on the visit of the Emperor and Empress of the French to this country. A portion of the fittings, furniture, Ac., had been taken out of the Osborne to be placed on ►oard the new royal yacht, and these of coons would have to be replaced, whilst the ship also required repaid's& coaling, itc. The new yacht has been in the steam basin some time, having had little or nothing done to her, the resources of the dockyard having been concentrated on the equipment of the Baltic fleet. Is oonsequenoe of the order received yesterday, directions were at once given for the workmen sod labourers to com mence this morning is pain, the Osborne (the old yacht) ready by the day aimed, sad at 4 o'clock this morning a strong party of shipwrights went on board, and set to work with the utmost vigour in housing over the deck, to enable the repainting and regilding to go on without injury from the coaling of the ship. Gangs of convicts were also set to work to reship the vessel's cables and fill her up with 100 toss of coal ; and altogether a very large body of official., workmen, labourers. convicts, &e., were employed upon her. They all continued their work vigorously till , 3 o'clock this siternoon, when as order was issued counter. mending the Ant order, as to completing the yseht by t►e day named, and allowing it to be got ready with more leisure. The transition from the hurry since four in the morning to the apathy of three in the afternoon was almost ludicrous; the hundreds of officials, ship wrights, labourers, and convicts who were crowded in and *rotted the vessel suddenly disappearing altogether. "Ano ther lash in the pan " being the simile by which the affair we. described as the men dropped away from the some of their bootless activity. The reason of it all we believe to be the inability to get the yacht ready by the time named ; as although tee labour is reference to it, or ten times greater an amonat of labour, could have bee. performed In the time, yet the paint, waists, gilding, several costs of each of which had to be applied, :squirm some period to get dry. It is 'erected sow that the Fairy, screw tender to the yacht, will be employed in lien of the Osborne. The Odin, 16, paddle bigots, Captain Wilcox, come into harbour to-day, sad was taken into the steam basin to make good a defect in the severing of her cylinders.

DUBLIN, Arm 2. A oorreepoodent of the Carlow &Wind gives the follow* partieslan relative to the pored coseestraties el troops es the Cattsgh of Kildare • lime visited the asap to-day. It will be beestifoll eirsasastaatted, being *rod ea Ilse aide of the hill, sit from the walled-ta 'Deer Park for more than two miles towards lb* end of the Chuvegh, on the Wicklow side. lo the rear it will be com pletely sheltered by the bill itself from the cold northerly wind., whilst in frost its southerly aspect will make it Mosedingly warm. The nature of the soil and the inc:instion of the greund upon which it is placed will came it to he esealrateble and dry in the wettest season of the year. The view from it will be magnificent, embracing on the richt the umatakis which separate part of the King's and Qw en's Coantlee; on the left, some of the beautiful range of the Wicklow hills; and in frost a splendid plain, bounded is the distance by the nage of hills intending from Old Laigklin, through the Qmon's County, towards Strad belly, with the rock of Dammam in bold relief, looking as imposing as ever. The camp itself will be composed of buts I made of wood, placed on brick foundation, about 40 by 20 test in size, arranged in rows, with streets 20 feet wide between each, running down the side of the hill, so as to form as inclined plane for the water to be carried away in rainy weather; each haus* will face the one at the opposite side, sad there will be a space between the end of each, forming, so it were, cross streets, a matter of great importance in the mutilation. Bach hut will be covered in with asphalt, mope the offiesee'. which will have vulcanised ins mob, and will be supplied with a stove in the centre, and ropes by a door at eiNel Md. Some of them will have boarded leers, others merely the mil on which they ere placed, and more will have settings. It is estimated that five mess, sash Incise eight huts, will amoramodate 1,500 rms. The foundations for four are already bails, and a large number of men are busily engaged in removing the Inns, clearing away the ground for the position of each bra, and preparing mortar, its., for the works. I under. Maid that after twenty days the government will take pos. emus of what huts are then bent, and each day afterwards of as many as can be pat up the preceding one; and it le thought that the contractors will be able to complete by that time tea each day. There are twelve wells being swat along the bottom of the hill on the Browneetown side; Is these *cram pumps will be put up, which the soldiers will have to work ; and, in order to train them to fi eld duties, I have heard it is the intention of the author - kits to make the rasa clear away all rubbish which may be left, sod when encamped they will have to make the rthets, re. move seal, ite., to tremble dug at some distance from the map, which are to be severed in according as they are filled up. Oren and a slaughtering-house will also be tweeted; thus you may perceive that along with being taught *omfatter* in masses tom will be trained to the minor, though not less important, duties of the field." The following is a more accurate account of the manner is which the camp will be supplied with water : " The Commanding Royal Bogineer in Ireland will m eths proposals for the col streotion and erection of such works as shall be necessary for the delivery of a sufficient and constant supply of water to the temporary barracks on the Curregh. The water is proposed to be obtained from the river Liffey, in quantity about 70,000 gallons per day, ' and to be in all respects fit for the use of her Majesty's troops. It will require to be forced to a height sufficient to be delivered into iron tanks placed on the site of the bar racks, a distance of about there mike from the river, and at the highest pout about 100 feet above its level. These teaks, containing 10,000 idiom each, are to be 13 in num ber; and the contract is also to include the providing, Iraqi, and laying of all requisite machinery, filtering ap paratus, reservoirs, buildings, &c , the works of every de scription becoming the property of the Ordnance. The eon minor will be bound to maintain the required supply of pure filtered water for a period of five years, ending 31st March, 1860, at a sum per annum to be named by him, bat determioable at the option of the Board of Ordnance, at any period after one year, on giving sin months' notice. Proposals to perform the work must be transmitted before the 16th instant ; and the entire undertakiog must be com pleted, and delivering of water ready at all the requisite positions within 60 days after the acceptance of the tender."

B.Roche took his consti tuents completely by surprise, and so little was the cause of it understood in Cork on Saturday that it was supposed to be connected with the circumstarce of his lather's death, which took place last week. It is stated that the title by which Mr. Roche will be raised to the peerage—that, it appears, being the real cause of his retirement from the House of Commons —will be that of Viscount Fermoy, a title which at a former period was in Mr. Roche's family. Mr. Alexander M'Carthy, formerly M.P. for the City of Cork, and Mr. Deasy, Q C., are spoken of as pro- bable candidates for the vacant seat. and of these the latter is considered to be the most likely to succeed. The weather has been for some time most pro pitious for the spring work, which is making con siderable progress throughout the country, the farmers exerting themselves to the utmost to com pensate for the time lost through the unseasonable severity of the weather in February, and the early part of the present month. There it., however, as yet but little vegetation, the cold being still very great. The Limerick Chronicle thus describes the state of agricultural affairs : The weather has been very hush and ungenial this week, dry, parching wind, sharp frost every night and morales, with no sign of vegetation; bat we anticipate the April showers will give moisture to field and garden, sad open the May Power's bud. The lambing season has not been pro pitiow and sheep Waters have lest by the eold dry weather, se haraal to yenning ewes and their progeny. Stock holders are also pushed far sustenance, the usual winter keep for cattle being almost exhausted, and the want of grass is just now severely felt. A larger breadth of green stops is the bat ears for this deficiency. - - - The Northers Whig, on the same important sub ject, says: A warm, drying no hes prevailed daring day-tine, while at night there is a pretty keen frost, which has had the 'dem of stopping all oat-door vegetation. Field labour, pen. misery to sowing, has now been almost completed; but the farmers have, as yet, thought it imprudent to pot seed in the ground. Indeed, for many years peat, spring has shown less of its primal nature than up to the presage time this year.—Beabridge, Musk 27: The weather, though sow An sad dry, is still unfavourable for vegetation, and the spring season has for so far bees very unfavourable. Ever Mace the frost km, there ha bees no weather lit for sowhig, and rutin who intended to tow spring wheat have boos eteppeMted. Of coarse other mops meet supply the plass of wheat.

DINNER. ITHE ROYAL THEATRICAL FUND ANNUAL The tenth anniversary festival of this useful and inte resting ehuity was held yesterday evening at the London Tavern, and went off with unusua l ec l a t . Th e room was crowded, and amongst the company m i g ht b e no ti ce d wet of the leading celebrities connected with the metropolitan drama. The choir was taken by Mr. BOCISTONI, of the Haymarket; and right and left of him we observed Mr. Blasco, Mr. Lemon, Mr. Smith, Theatre It oval, Drury lane, Mr. Stirling Coyne, Captain Baddeley, Mr. Neale, ttdinTnheerri. were th n e o re t l as us ova th l an ef th 2 le ge lo n th ti , e. Lord ea r E , e B a r Bruce , t The CHAIRMAN proceeded to give the usual initiatory tout, "The Health of her Majesty the Queen," "'marking that, independently of the duty of every loyal subject, there were many special reasons to induce himself and the mem ben of the theatrical profession to drink her Majesty's health with more than common fervour. In the first place. her Mitjesty bad this year repeated her magnificent annual donation of 100 guineas; and, in the second, there was no one who had a higher relish for good comic acting than her Majesty. (Laughter.) He (Mr. Buckstone) having had the honour of playing before her Majesty at Windsor Castle and the Haymarket, could vouch for it that her Majesty could laugh as heartily at comedy—when it was properly played—(i laugh)—as any man or woman in her dominions. (Cheers.) He had himself a third reuse for considering the day happy.when her Majesty ascended the throne, as on that day he was bleeped with a son, so that as an actor, a father, and a friend of the theatrical fund, he had special reasons for praposiug the Queen's health with all the honours. (Loud cheers.) The neat toast was "Prince Albert and the Royal Family," after which the Chairman gave The Army and Navy," observing that as it was considered very silly to paint the lily, be should net attempt to enhance by any eulogist= of his the public estimation of the gallant deeds of the army and navy. (Lose cheering.) They had amongst them a gallant officer who had shared is the perils of Alma and lokermann, and who would respond to the tout. (Great churiag.) Captain BADDILIT (who, en rising, was received with renewed cheering) said that to be called on to return thanks for the army and navy was to him quite an =teem:tut honour ; so much so that he felt his hurt flutter more than ever it bad done in the trenches, (Loud cheery.) The com ' pany might depend upon it that the kind sympathy of the people of England was not thrown away cn their country men in the Crimea, who were as ready to give as good an account of the Russians as ever, and to give as good an account of them as at Alma or Inkermann. Lord Raglan, he believed, to be a brave and gallant officer, who having led the army triumphantly through previous engagements, would do so again with equal messes. Let the army in I the Crimea be only fairly reinforced and properly taken are of---(hear, hear)—and they might depend upon it • Lord Raglan would again lead them to victory. Even I should that not be the ease, of one thing they might be sore, and that was that so long as a single moldier remained there • was not atingle soldier who would turn his back upon the , %teams. (Land cheers.) • The " Houses of Parliament" was the next tout, for • which Lord Easier Sauce returned thanks. Mr. CHAULES DICKENS, In proposing the next tout, said that it was proleabl witbin the theatrical experience or most of the company that on some occasion when they had been at the play, everything bad at first progressed in a satisfac tory manner. Toe principal actor was a decided favourite, and no gentleman amongst the company was so tinfortunsto as to meet with the accident known in theatrical parlance es " miming hie tip," when suddenly the act drop fell and there appeared at the right hand aide a gentleman in plain clothes, his hat violently clasped in both hands, and his boots act without some appearance of the streets—a man of a pale aspect, which was partly referable to the action cf acute feeling, and partly to the neglect of the haresfoot which so often lent a bloom to theatrical countenances, sad who came to make the usual appeal to the well•known generosity of a British public—in a word, to apologise. (Loud laughter.) He (Kr. Dickens) was that particular gentleman on the present occasion. He bad been opt laisioaed by the maaagement to inform the aui isag t that Mr. Buckoone—owing to circuits:Amu s over which he had no control (loud laughter) —had been " put up " for two parts in this piece, and found himself absolutely usable to appear in both at the same time. (Cheers.) He was in point of fact at that moment making up for the arduous character of " The Treasurer," a part in which he bed been most successful since the com mencement of the present establishment—(" hear, hear," and sheen)—and therefore found himself unable to fill any longer his other character of chairman, or to deliver that spirit-stirriag address from which no doubt so much was expected. (Hear, hear.) lye therefore appealed to the failing indulgence and consideration of a British audience, to allow him (Mr. Dickens) to walk through the part, and to say what Mr. Buckstone would have said, had he not made special arrangements to say something else. (Cheers and laughter.) Mr. Buckston• then, on receiving from Mr. Toole the cue of "Pray, silence, chair," in giving " the toast of the evening," would have congra tulated the members of the Theatrical Fund on the brilliant assemblage he saw around hiss, and have proceeded to testify to the innumerable merits of the hotitution. lie would have communicated the reassuring fact that, in the midst of war and tumult, the humanising arts bed not quite been forgotten, and, least of all, that art which, through the means of one little play, bad made the battles of Poictiere and Agincourt more renowned than had been done by all the historians and chroniclers of that or any later period—(cheers)—an art which had done more to stir up manly blood in a great cone than any parliamentary speeches that had ever been delivered in all the debates that bad ever made night hideous. (" Hear," and chute.) Surely they were not inappropriately asked to remember that art in time of war, which painted with the greatest truth the joys of mili tary triumph, or the constancy of brave hearts under the misfortunes which were inseparable from war. (Loud cheers.) They must remember that art, and encourage a society which comprehended every grade of the actor's pro fusion—which was unfettered la its bounty by any bard restriction or impossible condition—offering to every thea trical professor who should subscribe a support which was their right and which, therefore, they never need blush to accept. ( dear) This was the sum and substance of Mr. Buekstone's case; but as he now saw that gentleman at the wing, evidently well up in his part of treasurer, and armed with the "property" documents, and as he was most eager to "come on," he (Mr. Dickens) would, with the permission of the audience, leave the stage to him, with this observation, that he had a most malicious tr aaa u a et's twinkle in hie eye, and that it behoved the audience to " mind their pockets." (Laughter.) It was a well. known theatrical mazim that an actor should always have some thing good to " get off " with—he had something which he was sure would "bring down the house ;" it was not the wounded soldier, nor the sailor who fought the pirates, nor the" woman in danger"—but simply, "Prosperity Is the Theatrical Fund." (Loud cheers.) Mr. Becxgrotex rose amidst loud cheering, and said— Gentlemen, as this is the first time that the toast of the evening, " Fluectu to the General Theatrical Fund," has been acknowledged by the chair, I know you will excuse me if I state one of the peculiar disadvantages under which I labour by having moved from next door—that is to say, from a seat or two to the right hand. In reply to this tout, there were always two subject, which carried me more than half way through my duty. The first consisted in complimeatingthe chairman of the evening—in dwelling on his kindness in attending hers, in alluding to his talent in art, seisms', or literature, and which had rendered his name lemons, and made him a fit person to preside at such a festival as this. Now, gentlemen, it is very clear that, as I cannot compliment myself, my subject matter becomes shorn of its fair proportions, and in consequence, my address to-night may not be so lengthy as usual, a fact on which you will, no doubt, immediately congratulate yourselves. Still, gentlemen, when I remember the distinguished per sons who have presided on this oceasiou—when I recollect such names as Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, Mr. Macready, our friend and trustee Mr. Charles Dickens, who hes been twice Lord Mayor of the London Tavern at this banquet, and write we hope, will fill that office more than thrice— +ben „I remember that Mr. Charles Keay, Mr. Henry Berkeley, Mr. Benj. Webster, and Mr. Milne*, have occu pied this chair, I cannot but feel Battered at being requested to endeavour to emulate their seal in our an and acknow ledge the great importance of the position. And now, gentle see, as I have confessed to being deprived of one of my chief, and one of my most pleasant, topic" in my annual address, I think you will allow that, in making the confes sion, I have already filled up the epees, and supplied the deficiency with tolerable dexterity. The second subject, gentleman, is one that still remains to me, and that is, to state the condition and objects of our fund. This is ex pected; and though its intentions are fully understood by all present, yet our friends and well-wishers must be anxious to know hew we progress, the amount of our success, and what we are doing with our canital. The General Theatrical Fund, gentlemen, was established for the purpose of granting seaside@ to all ontsben of the dramatic pro fession, whether is town or country, who might possess the prudence to subscribe to it, and who, after puectuilly paying their subscriptions for seven years, would become enitled to its benefits should they be prevented following their pursuit by accident, age, or infirmity. Of course, gentlemen, we have found that members of the fond have sometimes deigned their privileges with great alscrit!, when it has been the duty of the directors to nuke strict inquiry into their claims; and If by some such inquiry may have been considered too searching, it must be remembered the directors are bound by their rule., and by the duties which they owe to the satiety, to sae they are not imposed upon, or the benefits of tee fend applied unwortei y ; and la all cases where such inquiries have ended satisfactorily, the relief or the annuity has been cheerfully &welded. And to show you, gentlemen, the greet liberality of this fund, where saddest or infirmity may suddenly arrest the career of en actor, I have only to allude to tease which ea_ me _ the directors within the last former had just subscribed a. daring that term be had paid a.. furt, something less.
