As we expected, the resolutions moved last night by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER were adopted by the committee without opposition, and can scarcely be said to have been seriously discussed. The House of Commons evidently feels that as money must be had by some means or other, it will not do to be nicely critical. There is another circumstance in favour of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER. lie has not had time, even if he may have had the inclination, to alter materially the financial arrange ments of the year contemplated by Mr. GLADSTONE. It is extremely improbable that the latter gentleman, had he continued in office, could have stuck to his anti-ken crotchet, and a loan would in all likelihood have formed • part even of his scheme. The Budget, in short, is quite as much Mr. GLAUSTONE'd Go Sit GEORGE COREZWALL LEWIS'S. Of course, the ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer is not so unnatural a parent as to quarrel with his own offspring, because it is being named by another. His opposition, there fore, is disarmed. Again, it is not the cue of the Derbyites to make a serious onslaught on Ministers r e ; and this silences another financial critic—Mr. Dismazi.t. Sir O. Lams has therefore no hos tilities to apprehend beyond • partisan warfare con ducted by a few guerilla chiefs, unconnected with and independent of each other. If we may judge by appearances, they intend to make of certain items of the Budget • handle for ventilating their notions on sundry abstract principles of finance and taxation, but to offer no serious opposition. The ambiguous paternity of the budget, to which we have alluded above, renders it no fair test of Sir G. C. LEvits's capabilities as a financier. Finance L a new field for him, and his previous pursuits do not warrant the expectation that he will be found to have maturely studied the subject. The speech with which he prefaced his resolutions, able though it un doubtedly is, is perhaps too full of dissertations on general principles to indicate that sharp eye to practical details, and that promptitude in action, which are the most indispensiblo requisites in a Minister of Finance. But it would be unjust to pre judge him. The loan is the feature of the budget which is most likely to be exclusively his own. It must be admitted that the favour with which the ken has been received in the money market seems to show that he has known how to make it acceptable to the moneyed interest ; while the opinion expressed by Mr. MASTERMAN and other shrewd practical com- mercialists, that the terms on which it has been con tracted for ars fair to the pubic, recommends it in a still more important point of view. That the public at large, and even many members of the Stock Ex change, should not see their way clearly in the mat ter, is not surprising. Since the close of the lut war kw loans, and none of any great amount, have been required in England. A race of English dealers in . . . th funds has arisen which has scarcely any practical experience of loan transactions. Perhaps this— more than the determination of Government to accept only bidding. for the whole amount—has thrown it into the hands of the great bones which las secured it. The extensive foreign relations of the Rcrrascutto family have kept them more au fait of loan transactions than most of our English capitalists. At the same time we believe we are correct in stating, as a matter of fact, that a strong feel ing prevails in the City that it would have been desirable, by accepting partial biddiogs, to bare thrown the loan open to a wider competition. On this point it would be rash to express a decided opinion ; and the only other point open for discussion is the intention intimated by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER to submit a resolution to parliament, declaring that after . _ the close of the war one million of the debt' now contracted shall be extinguished annually. There can be no doubt that the natural tendency of a national debt to increase, readers it desirable that every opportunity of keeping it down should be em braced ; but it is an open question whether the realisation of this principle is actually pro moted by adopting such resolutions in advance. Circumstances, mere than Parliamentary votes, will determine when repayment is to commence, and by what amount of instalments. As to the increased taxes proposed by the CHAN CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, they are probably Neither much better nor much worse than any others that could be suggested. Two only appear to be open to controversy. The first of these is the proposed penny stamp on bankers' cheques. Every tax that interferes with the free circulation of capital is objectionable on principle; but it must be admitted that the proposal to impose a penny stamp on bankers' cheques, when mooted last year, did not encounter a very decided opposition. At the same time, con sidering the very great amount of trouble to men of business that such a tax may bring along with it, the sum of 200,0001.—its estimated return — appears to be a very trifling gain. The other proposal alluded to is the augmentation of the ditties on Scotch and Irish spirits. May not both lead to an increase of illicit distillation ? The duties on Scotch spirits are to be made equal to those on English spirits. But ought it not to be kept in mind that almost all the spirits distilled in England are from grain, and that almost all the spirits distilled in Soot hied are from malt? And ought not an allowance to be made to the Scotch distillers for what they thus contribute to the revenue under another name ? Daiiy News. THE CIVIL. Banvics.—Mr. W. H.

At this time the sole occupants of the net into rior woe the pollee, who raustend is great lone cadet floperletendesta Piero, Marten, sad O'Bries, and a large body of impactors. The most eMoisat anaagemeats were at ONO made, and wen nthesquently 'evenly tooted by the immense halo: of visitors and the extraordi nary aexisty of everyone to see the imperial visitors. After a short pause is the ro y a l mora l = MOM, which hays already bean described in the Daft' Nets, a cortdge was famed. the Queen and Emperor taking the lead, the Engines and Prince following, and then the representa tives of the two courts, in gay morning toilette. Mr. Laing sad Sir Joseph Paxton were la immediate attendee's on the sovereigns, as was also Mr Charles Foe, with who. the Emperor freely and repeatedly convened in the course of the promenade. Os Mr. Francis Fuller de volved the duty of escorting the ladies of the royal and im perial suites, sad that gentleman perforated the very agree. able duty with his accustomed politeness and success. Is the cortege were also Messrs. Henderson and Cochrane, to whose united exertions the Palace owes its admirable soli dity of construction, and Messrs. Farquhar, Anderson, Lewis, sad Lushington, the romaitiug mothers of the ilkeetend body. The superintendents of the exhibitors' departmeet. Maus. Deane and Belshaw, had the bosom of conducting the illustrious party over the various courts. Of cones., with such a limited space of time to be die posed of, and such a unique collection of works of art to be inspected, nothing but the most cursory glamor could be afforded to each : still the imperial visitors found time to pause for a moment before each of the more conspi cuous chefs-crceurre, and sib questions coarsening them of their ciceroni. Mr. Owen Jones was at hie poet amongst his Egyptian family, and escorted the party through that court, thence through the Greek and Roman courts, and Really to the Alhambra, the groat architectural wonder of the native country of the Empress Eugenie. A more than usual space of time was devoted to this beautiful court, so justly regarded with pride by the distinguished artist, and warm compliments were paned on its unrivalled beauties of desiga and construction. The oely regret was that the Emperor and Empress had not time to hear Mr. Jones's explanations of thole wonderful Moorish antiquities, in which he is at once so enthusiastic and profound. Mr. Ferguson was in attendance in the Assyrian Court, after a short inspection of which the corgi go passed over to the dominions of Mr. Digby Wyatt, which range from the gloomy Byzantine through Gothic sad Renaissance to the light and luxurious Italian period. The Emotes gazed with seeming interest on the monumental effigies of the Gothic Queens, and made many inquiries about the rare specimens of the Renaissance Court. It is to be re gretted, however, that the Ohibertl gates were not pointed out; hat time, luncheon, and the impatient public alike precluded the possibility of delay. A reminiscence of fatherland wu afforded, I in the presence of a statue from Seville, which has lately been added to the Italian Court. The Empress at once re cognised it, and naked Mr. Dishy Wyatt several questions, respecting its history. The Pompeian Cant was, of course, honoured with a visit, and on leaving it the Empress com plaining of fatigue, one of Mr. Heath's Bath (lairs was . . . - quickly brought for her accommodation, with which her Imperial Majesty expressed herself delighted; and Prince Albert immediately after gave orders for its purchase. The inspection being now completed, the Queen, Empress, Emperor, and Prince Albert, accompanied by the ladies of honour, and attended by Mr. Laing sod Sir Joseph Poston, proceeded to a temporary balcony I which had been erected in the garden front of the central transept ; and here a epaulet was afforded which few who were so fortunate as to witness will speedily for pt, and least of all the imperial couple, who Were them. selves the central points of its attraction. On the terraces underneath upwards of 40,000 well-dressed people were densely crowded, who, the moment the Queen and Empress made their appearance, greeted them with fervent and long esatinued cheering. Then the Emperor bad hie separate ovation, which was so earnest as to keep him bowing and smiling for several minutes ; and last, and certainly not least in f y, rose • cheer for Prince Albert, who with commendable good taste had, up to this moment, kept himself rather in the back of the baloney. Her Majesty the Queen was radiant with smiles and condescension, and gracefully taking the Em peso by the hand led her to the front of the balcony, when, it is hardly necessary to add, the cheering was again and again renewed, with deafening vigour. It was certainly a sight rarely to be equalled in interest, these Mee young and graceful women—one the Queen Regnant of the mightiest empire in the world, and the other the chosen lowa of that remarkable man who, having, by hie per sonal boldness, won en Imperial crown, has ever since been winning the good opinion of mankind by the dignity and eMciency with which he wears it--standing thus, hand in hand, in front of a vast multitude, who had as sembled mainly in their honour. The beauty of the prospect evidently struck the Empress and Emperor, se both pretty plainly indicated by their gestures. That nothing might be wanting to complete the novelty and attraction, the great central fountains, ao long the subject of alter nate hopes a- .d fears on the part of the public, commenced playing, producing a magnificent cerise of jets, which glis tened brilliantly in the sunbeams. The company who had waited on the esplanade so patiently all the morning had: now theirl reward, since with the royal group in the balcony, the pl►y of the fountains, and the strains of the bands, which commenced playing " Patent pour la Eyrie," the splendour of the surrounding scenery, cad the fineness of the day, • combination of attraction was produced of which the most favoured visitor of the interior could not have the slightest • conception. After a lape of some moments the Queen and her guests retired to the transept, and the people outside made a sudden rush to the various entrances, to avail themselves of the privilege which they had been promised when the royal party retired to luncheon. This meal was served in that portion of the Mrs which had noently been need as a picture gallery, bet which has been, by the decorative skill of Messrs. Jackson and Grabens, transformed into • handsome ban petting room, with painted ailing, graceful violet coloured draperies, and gold ornaments, the glass sides being covered with worked muslin hangings, lined throughout with a deli- 1 este green. The vestibule has bun hung with crimson cloth, and costly mirrors ; and all this magic change was wrought in the, space of time 'lapdog from the pre vious Friday. The repast was prepared by the Queen's servants, without the slightest interfuses's on the part of the Crystal Palau restaurant. Hers may be the proper plus to mention that • member of the court commutated to Mr. Belshaw the great satisfaction of her Majesty with all the !arrangements, adding that he had Queen in better spirits, or exhibiting • greater appearance of enjoyment. The retirement of the royal party wee the signal for the entrance of the sovereign people. is they poured through all the entrances. and it required the exertions of whole armies of policemen to keep the central passage clear, end preserve the transept platform from istrasion. This erec tion, which was but of modest pretensions, was raised half a down steps on each side from the door, and was covered with crimson cloth. In the centre was a high pole, deco rated with laurel, and surmounted with a trophy of the colours of the two nations. Two preen banners with the Imperial cypher completed the artificial decorations, but nature had also been called into requisition for t►e supply of a profusion of beautiful dowers which gave colour and fragrance sad freshness to the whole. The effect of this platform was pretty and simple, bat not sufficiently strong to distract the public attention from the royal group who were to be its temporary occupants. By an excellent arrangement of the police, the front teak of the company all through the line of promenade was made to corselet ex clusively of ladies, so that not only was the pictorial effect , improved, but an expellent security taken for the preserva tion of order. As in the case of "The thin red line" at dalaklava, there were no Cossacks who would be hardy enough to dislodge the.. fair battalions. It was soon, how ever, deepened by many a row, bx anxious lovers, husband', and fathers, and the first gallery was before long equally crowded. There was sot, however, the slightest confusion, but every one waited patiently for the *gran of the royal party from the benqustting saloon. On their re-appearance the cheering was renewed, and gra dually increased in volume as they approached the transept, round which, of course, the greatest 'nighers of the company had congregated. The Queen ascended the platform, ac companied by the Empress Bemis, mad both Sovereigns took their mats, followed by the Emperor sad Prince Albert, the former sitting on the Queen's right head, the latter on the Empress's left. The whole party, however, goon again rose in acknowledgment of the salutations of the company, the Crystal band struck up the French national air, gad the second of the magnillseat to►leau' was formed, which might be mid to be the great features of the day's proceedings. The appearance of the great central tran sept on the opening day will be recalled by the public, but the effect of yesterday's pageant was °moldered by those who 11,4 men both to be to mu passing its predenner. It was at ones tbe climax and the canelasios of the day's menials, as the royal party slowly retired immediately after the lines were broken, and the net company nattered themselves over the building, some to leek at the objeete of art, bat the greater portion in swab of creature comforts, of which the Moen. Staples, to whom the connuipariat is entrusted, had provided a p:enti• ful supply. The excellent arrangements of the railway com Day have been before alluded to, and it is but jus tice to a very efficient servant of the Crystal Pikes Com pany, Mr. Spurner, who superintend, the stabling depart ment, to add, that the arrangements for the reception of hones and arrives were equally satisfactory. Stalls had been prepared for 3,000 hones and considerably more than 2,000 were actually required, of which 66 were devoted to the Queen's horses alone. The whole were properly baited and taken care of, and wen all brought up in their turn without the slightest bitch er confusion. Mr. Grove, the secretary to the Crystal Palace Company, is entitled to the thanks of the reprnentatives of the morning newspapers for the enflicient facilities afforded for observing the more interning features of the day's proceedings. At the Guildhall on Thursday all the mayors pre-' , seat were introduced to the Emperor. On the introduction of the Mayor of Southampton, his Imperial Majesty paused, repeated the word Southampton, and then thanked the mayor (Sampson Payne, Esq.) for his invitation to him to return by way of Southampton and partake of its man( cipal hospitalities. He added that he regretted that pre arrangements would not admit of his visiting Southampton. The Lord Mayor of Dublin, and a deputation from the corporation, have had the honour of forwarding, through the French ambassador, an address from that body to his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of the French. The deputation was assured that it would prove highly gratify ing to the Emperor, and that his Majesty would 'stunt an early reply. THE DEPARTURE OF THE EMPEROR AND EMPRESS OF THE FRENCH FROM BUCKING HAM PALACE.-(THIS DAY.) This morning, at a quarter past- ten o'clock, the Emperor and Empress of the French, with a rapidity tharac teristie of all their movements sirell their visit to England, left Buckineham.Pnlace .on route for their own dominions. The Royal cortege consisted of six open carriages and four, with oat-riders in starlet liveries, and an escort of the Ox ford Blues. Ltd.. first carriage rode the Emperor and,Em press and his Royal Highness Prince Albert; the Imperial suite followed in other.oarriages. Her Majesty, with the Prince of Wales, Princess Royal, and suite, descended to the Grand Entrance Hall with the Emperor and Empress, and took a final leave of their Majesties. The Queen and Royal children spin appeared at the front drawing-room windows. The Emperor and Empress appeared deeply affected. The Royal cortegr, on leaving the Palace, proceeded at a rapid rate through the Horse-Guards, and along Parliament street, Westminster-bridge, St. George's-road, to the Brick. layers' Anus station. On the carriages containing the Emperor and Empress entering the railway station, the directors sad other officials in attendance advanced to receive the illustrious party, wbo on proceeding to the rail way carriage received the mut enthusiastic reception. Their Majesties h►ve let agreeable souvenirs of their visit in the shape of numerous costly presents to those who have been in attendance during the visit to our Court. The Emperor of the French has conferred on his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour. Lord kalmerstoo, apologising to Sir Calling Eard ley, for inability to receive a deputation on the subject of Maynooth, writes—" It seems, however, to be of less con• sequence, because I can easily imagine what the deputation would have to say to me, and while, on the one hand, I could not hope to change their opinion, I am quite sure that they would not alter mine." The Birmingham Musical Fcatival is to commence the 28th of Augast. Before Lord Aberdeen retired from power, Sir Charles Butlake received intelligence of his appointment as salaried Director of the Gallery—Mr. Worm= of his appointment as Secretary. This was some menthe ago. Yet it appears from the Atheneum that neither gentleman has been officially informed of his appointment. Mr. Beresford Hope has consented to stand on the Conservative interest at the next election for Maidstone. We (Maidstone Journal) are still in an uncertain state rela• ties to the intentions of the Hon. F. Villien ; bat in the anticipation of his resigning hie seat, the Liberal party are dreaming of bringing forward Lerd Melgund u their can didate. The Conservatives mean to invite William H. Bodkin, B,q. Mr. C. Mathews has, it is said, accepted an en gagement as actor and stage-manager with Mr. Smith at Drury-lane. Thither, also, go Mr. !town Rozby, as acting. manager; Mr. Beverley, as scenic artist; and Mrs. Frank Matthews, Mill Oliver, and Miss Martindale. Mr. Frank Matthews Is engaged with Mr. Kew at the Princess's. We hear thst an amateur ballet hu been thought of, in the event of a performance by the Literary Company before the Queen. The idea, however, can hardly bear maters consideration. It is suggested that the pictures in the approaching Royal Academy Exhibition might each bear on the frame the dmignation of the subject and the name of the painter. It would certainly be a vast relief to be spared the necessity of continual reference to the catalogue while looking at the pictures.

The Post thinks that in regard to the mach-mooted question as to whether a bonnet should be worn on the head or off it, it may not be amiss to take advantage of the actual presence of her Imperial Majesty, who is said to have intro duced this popular feminine eccentricity, to place on record that, "although the bonnet of the Empress Eugenie dis plays fully her face and hair, it dose not convey to the be holder the idea of its being likely to fall from the head behind, but rather seems to cling to, and support, the hair in that position. This gives a lightness and grace of car riage to the head totally distinct from that boldness and barefacedases which have char►cterised the Eoglish adop tion of the Preach imperial fashion." A Parliamentary paper states the cost of the fur the, papers relative to the recent Antis expeditious pre sented in Parliament in January, to have been 1,685 L 81.

The Immense crowd that congregated yesterday on the stately terraces at Syrians= was a more expansive, as well as more numerous, representation of public opinion than the previous day's assemblage at the Guildhall ; for, in the great body of season ticket holders, Winding those who became se a few days slam, is order that they might me ender the most favourable eireuestasess the Emperor and Empress of the French, a very high and substantial elms of English *misty was included, whilst is the exhibi tors and the shareholders, who were present by invitation, would be found a aemerees deputation from the industrial deems ; and it is gratifying to be able to add that each vied with the other in the heartiness of their welcoming plaudits. The police authorities estimated the gross number peewit at amity 60,000—a total that emphatically indicated the greener and importance of the cession. The weather was fine enough to have extorted a lengthy despatch even from Lord Raglan, had he been present, and showed that the Emperor and Empress are nearly as favour ably regarded by the skyey Maness as our own beloved sovereign, and this forms no mean ingredient in their popu larity ; es Englishmen. who look upon die weather as one of their greatest luxuries, involuntarily take a liking to those whom experience proves to bring it in their train.

(Twit :as erscuL OP THII DAILY KIWI ) CAMP ABOVE SEBASTOPOL, APRIL 7. The siege works are making rapid program, especially in the centre and on the right; and so close is becoming, day by day, the approximatiofi between the lines of defence and attack throughout their whole extent, that either a halt or a contest will be very shortly inevitable. Each morning finds the approaches carried nearer to the fortifications, and at the same time some works thrown out by the enemy to meet or counteract them. In the course of then operations interruptions constantly occur on both sides. One working party making efforts to attain a certain point, hears in the darknsu a working party of the enemysapping up toward the same object, and an attempt is made to stop their progress ; or, per haps, the two parties actually meet, and a collision ensue,. Sometimes an impediment thrown up on one side must be removed to enable the necessary progress to be made on the other side : sometimes a work made by the enemy is coveted by our engineers to be introduced into a work of their making, and an attempt follows to take it. In all such instances a struggle ensues, and as these operations are chiefly carried on under cover of the darkness, night-attacks are becoming more and more frequent the nearer the contending parties corns to each other. ... _ In the early part of the siege operations, when the attack was divided into two sections, that on the left being undertaken by the French, that on the right by the English, many circumstances concurred to enable our allies to advance their trenches with much greater rapidity than we could do. The westernmost of the several ravines which lead down to the south harbour then formed the line of demarcation between the French and English works. At first the French directed their approaches against the centre of the town, or southern extremity, being chiefly opposed by the guns of the Flagstaff Bastion and the Garden and Tower Batteries. They were also exposed to an oblique fire from the Redan and other works on the arsenal side of the south harbour. Bat from the supe rior numerical force available for these operations, and the undivided attention they were sble from their position to give to them, as well as from the nature of the ground, not only their sig-zags of approach and parallels advanced with great rapidity in the main direction, but they also prolonged the attack to the left, until at last their trenches environed all that part of the town which looked toward the plateau. The line of attack was then completed on this side from Quarantine Bay to the deep ravine separating the French and English attacks at a point a little south of the head of the Admiralty Har bour ; and the parallels were so advanced that at some points they were separated from the enemy's works by scarcely more than fifty or eighty yards. On the right the English undertook not only the attack against the line of defences surrounding the Arsenal and Admiralty yard and the whole Kara belnaia suburb, from the south harbour to Careening Bay, but also to guard the approaches to the heights overlooking the roadstead from Careening Bay to the Inkermann valley and those above the north end of the Tchernaya valley. Commencing from the loft of the English attack, Greenhill, which com prehends an extensive slope between the two principal ravines leading down to the south harbour, was armed by the works known, from the name of the engineer who superintended their execution, aa Chapman's, or the Greenhill, batteries. On the right of this again, upon Frenchmaa's-bill, a slope of undu lating land included between the more eastern of the two ravines last alluded to, and a winding ravine which also terminates in the valley of the south har bour, were placed the works known as Gordon's bat teries. This ravine, curving round from the right, and forming in part of its course a separation between Frenchman's-hill and the Redan hill,where, however, it becomes very shallow, is known in the English camp as the " middle ravine ;" while that separating Frenchman's-hill from Greenhill is called the " left ravine." Continuing our glance to the right, on the high ground between the middle ravine before named and another deep ravine leading down to Ca reening Bay, were some detached works, of which that known as the Right Lancaster, or fivesgun battery, was the principal. The main ravine ,leading to Careening Bay, as it approaches ha termination, becomes very deep, and its sides generally precipitous. This is usu illy spoken of as the right ravine. Numerous ravines of a secondary character enter and are lost in this mine, some following the general direction of the main channel, others descending into it nearly at right angles. Be) ond the right ravine, in the early part of the siege, no works at attack were undertaken; but, after the battle of Inkermann, the ground became better explored, and various work., both for defence and attack, were erected. The works of defence were undertaken con jointly by the French and English—the French tak ing the high ground to the right of the ravine called the Inkermann ravine, or the " Ravine des Zonaves," the English occupying the high ground to the left, and making both defensive works, and also some very important works of attack above the right ravine and toward the roadstead. Such were the relative positions of the allies, when the ravages of sickness among the British troops were so extensive that their force became utterly in- adequate to defend, much more to carry on, as - cir cumstances required, the long lines of works from the south harbour to Inkermann. The Highland Bri gade of the First Division had been drawn to Bala klava, and the Brigade of Guards, greatly diminished in strength, joined it subsequently. A new distribu tion of the siege labours took place. The French re tained their left attack, and also undertook all that portion of the right attack beyond the right ravine or Careening Bay ravine. They also extended their army of observation along the right flank, so as to the approaches from the Inkermann valley. his arrangement has left the English troops free to direct all their energies on the works of what is now called the "centre attack," the works on Greenhill and Frenchman's-hill, and it is now generally ac knowledged that this is the direction in which the principal attack against the fortress must be urged. The enemy also proves the great importance he attaches to this point by daily increasing and strengthening his defences on the Malakhoff and Redan hills, and extending them in every advan tageous position around the arsenal. The same remarkable energy which the Russian engineers exhibited on the left in throwing up works to meet the rapid advance of the French operations in that direction, in repairing those which were damaged, or replacing by new works those which were rendered untenable, is now actively displayed on the right. Old works are strengthened, new lines thrown up, fresh defences are advanced with won derful determination and perseverance ; while outside all, an army of riflemen esconce themselveq in pits, and occupy every ay.iilable bit of coal. r, and with in defatigable alertness seek to protect each point of the fortifications from observation and approach. The enemy has advantages on the right to aid him in vigorously carrying on his works, many of which he die not possess to the same extent on the left. Guns, military stores, and munitions are close at hand to the works in progr. BS. By means of the Admiralty Harbour, Dockyard Creek, and the Carer/tit* Port, his communications with the yew .% engaged in the transport duties across the roadstead are tenditated. Working parties, reliefs, and reinforeenientx Are mike quickly obtained; for the Careening Harbour.% the ordinary place of debarkation for .the.troope broilglic hum the encampments on the other . sjduruf *I Tos4 stead. The change in the distributi;ii d tit."' hitak led to new arrangements in the ituixtf OW . force. The Second Division, which • • ' n o? camped on the extreme right towards Inkermann, has been brought down to the centre, and is now en camped between the Light and Fourth Divisions. The regiments of this division assist those of the Light Division in the operations on Frenchman's-hill, while the Third and Fourth Divisions take the duties at Greenhill. The First Division remains under Sir Colin Campbell at Baleklava.
