At a later period it is lair to add that this gl aing evil was mitigated. "Major Stacey, either unprovided with special instruhis pons for such an emergency, or uusequad with power, awl authority as meanie/ commaucloct ni , appears to have then completely paralysed in his attempts to gofer° the hospnals under his (doers.

Mr. Stafford netts th.t bliij r Sillert was afraid to later the responsibility of dir t ctiog p..ymeot for the labour of 16 Turks, required fir the removal of the worth buithocts.l There is abundant proof throughout the evidence that the military officer in comuthwl at any station where general licepitals are trahlishid possemes authority to direct ex pooditure, and to meet all cues of emergency or mteelity beyond those provided for by the established iegulpos of the Wu-office. TOP immediate measures taken by the authorities at home —when the cooditioos of the hospitals was .more truly brought to their knowledge by the press and by. private laformation than it had been by the medical officers—were the appointment of the Commission of Itittuiry, and the instructions to her Majesty'. Ambassador at C. nstantioople, which will lie found in the Appendix. Tbe cothraittee con sider this lest step to have been as iojudieletts we it was tin availing for the warpath for which it was intended. If the division and uncertainty of uspousibiiiti Was S. serious evil, the evil could only be increased by the interference of soother authority, [memo neither relation to nor eolllllniOn with cur military administration. The instruction to the Althaseedor to provide on application mon e y and !rep in s for the wants of the hospital* would t eem to thiry that th nth° a iti a . at home were as little aware as the eboullandent ' Moult of the powers he possessed over the oommisaaries sad pane) on. • " Tee w tit of an ene rgetic gove rn ing authority, with as adequate staff to maintain constant inspection and of icielth I discipline, appears to your committee to have Is- , ti the chief I came of all the evils, 5,000 ur 6,000 men—althgh in how pital, require the care, superintendence, and co ou otrol of as eficient a 1 officer as much es the moaainuctier in the he'd. Mr. Herbert says, that ' Major Santry ought not to bees been left in the command his e hospital ; his Military rank was not sufficient ;' that ' belief Seas, 'that Meier Ilillery worked very indefstigably in big department, see cording to his own light, but that he was not a mar of the rank is the army and the weight which be ought to have had, to be at the bead of an establishment of such ve *e a gigao tic character c' that a general officer ought to has ap. pointed from this country with full authority.

" It may sot have been possible for Lord Raglan to have spared such an officer with a sufficient staff fir this serviette in the pressing circumstances of his position in the Crimea.

While the Matter was seh. I sequenni under consideration at hdme, Lord Regis* ago pointed Lord William Peale, who mounded Major Silkily in the beginning of Dec-mber. The Duke of Nowcierlo seas special instruetions to Lord William raulet on the bilk et January, which were followed by Mr. Herbert's tanker is struc•ions on the 18 h. It is fair to' Lord William" Patina to add, that a general amendment in the stet/ of e com the hospital took place from the time of his sinuning th mad.

Lord PALMERSTON entered upon a general defence of the course now being pursued by the government in the miiitsry administration, the consular establishment, and the civil service.

To a certain extent the tactics of Govern. ment, in packing it with a number of their partisans, has proved successful. The independent members have been obliged to admit into the Report palliative episodical discussions, and to adopt the most dulcet epithets whenever they express blame, in order to secure the assent of the ELLICES and SEYMOURS to any Report at all. Hence the document is enfeebled by its prolixity and timid phraseology. Still it is only to a certain extent that Govern ment have been successful in emasculating the Report. The case was so very bad, that even the creatures of Government, who were placed on the Committee to parry any decided con demnation of the late or present Administration, have been compelled to put their hands to a withering censure of both. The very cursory perusal we have been able to give the document precludes our dealing at present with its details. We can only state, as we have now done, the general impression it has left on our mind. We reserve for future opportunities comment upon the manner in which it deals with individuals and their conduct. But we lose not a moment in indicating its bearing on the paramount question of the day—the question of Administrati , Reform. The TO OUR READERS.

Yesterday the government received from Admiral Saunders bundas a despatch to the following effect : " A short time ago her Majesty's ship Cossack took and destroyed some coasting vessels near Hango, and three persons—the captain of one of the vessels, his son, and another Finnish sailor—were taken pri soners. Admiral Donde'', anxious not unnecessarily to injure the trade of the country, directed the Cos sack to bear up to Hango, in order to put on shore ,he persons who had been so captured, who had requested to be put on shore there, and tour other persons, who had also been taken prisoners near St. Petersburg, and who had also requested that they might be put on shore there. The Cossack ventured to Haago in order to put these persons on shore, and at some dis tance from the place she anchored, and sent the cutter on shore with the seven prisoners and the ordinary boat's crew. A flag of truce was displayed for at I least half an hour before she reached the jetty. No body was perceived but one person, who ran away at once. The boat arrived at the jetty, and landed the prisoners and their baggage. Every man remained in the boat. A body of Russians, who are reported to have amounted to from 300 to 400, came down to the jetty. Lieutenant Geneste, the officer, waved his flag ot truce, and explained why they came on shore. The Finnish captain also took the flag of truce, and tried to explain, both in Finnish and Eugliph, the reason why they came on shore. The officer in command of the Russians not only understood Eng lish, but spoke it. He said, ' They did not care in the least for a flag of truce, and they would show how the Russians would fight,' whereupon some 100 Russian soldiers immediately fired upon the officer and the prisoners on the jetty, and killed them all. They then fired into the boat till every man in the boat fell. The Russians rushed into , the boat, and threw some of the bodies overboard, dragged one wounded man out, threw him on the jetty, and bayoneted him, and left five bodies for dead in the beat. The cutter not returning later in the day, the gier was sent in, and it was ascertained from a dis tance that the cutter was moored to the jetty, and that there were some dead bodies in it.

Committee are of opinion that the sufferings of one army have been materially augmented by inefficient management. Apart from personal /a chase and incompetency in our administrators, various defects in the administrative organisation of the Army Department are pointed out, to which this inefficient management is at least in part attributable. The MINISTER of WAR, we are told, bad no separate office for his work, no precedents to guide him, no adequate means of managing the war. The SECRETARY at WAR, we are told, bed no power to originate anything. Of the Ordnance Department it is stated that the public business was obstructed by the conflict of parties which arose at the Board when unanimity was most required. The C immittee profess to be unable to decide which department is to blame for the non arrival of supplies at their destination, the want of adequate stowage in the transports, Use must of warehouse room at Balaklava, &c. 'Without pea needing further at present, the defects in the orga nisation of the War Department now mentioned p far to account for its inefficiency. That the members of the Board of Ordnance should have been indulging in personal squabbles, instead of minding their business, shelve the inadequacy of Boards to manage public affairs. Where three, four, or five men u.eet on a footing of perfect equality, no one feels it his duty to give way to another, and one wayward or crotchetty individual may at say time bring the action of the Board to a stand. Moreover, when there are several persons employed to transact one piece of business, the sense of responsibility is weakened ; each feels that only a fractional part of the blame for mismanagement can attach to him. The necessary inference from these considerations is that the practice of entrusting public business to Boards ought to be discontiued. Let one individual be placed at the head of each I I department with full power to command the obedience of his assistaste, and with full respon sitAlity for his and their faults of omission or com mission. By such an arrangement we shall escape the painful and disreputable spectacle of Boards wasting time in personal altercations ; by such an arrangement we shall know to whom we are to look for the performance of any duty—who is respon sible for its neglect. The pressure of Parlia mentary and Public Opinion will thus be brought I I to bear upon official delinquents; co offender will be able to hide himself among a crowd of colleague' equal with him in power. Again, the person to whom the management of any department is en trusted should have full power to originate the mea sures necessary for carrying out the business dele gated to it. Having been told by his superior what be is expected to do, he ought to have full authority to set those under him to work in the manner he deems most conducive to the attainment of the sod in view. When this is the case, no minister and no official under him will be able to plead, with Mr. SIDNEY HERBERT, in extenuation of his shortcomings, that he has mot power to originate anything. Yet, again, the official at the head of any department ought to have ample means of working it placed at his dis posal. He ought not to be left, like the luckless Duke of NEWCASTLE, without a staff, without precise and definite instructions as to what is expected of him, without even house accommodation for himself and his assistants. From these samples of the results of the inquiries of the Sebastopol Committee, it is evident that they indicate the principles upon which any reform of the War Department mast be set about, if it is to be effectual. The duties of the department — the limits of i s field of action—ought to be clearly defined. This having been done, one Minister ought to be placed at the bead of it, with full powers to dis charge those duties, and w i+h the entire responsibility in the event of their non-fulfilment. As one man cannot perform all the functions of so extensive a charge, the department ought to be parcelled out into sub departments. The Minister ought to confine himself to the general direction and control of all of these, leaving their internal details to the persons placed at the head of each. To enable him to exercise the necessary authority over these subordinates, he must have the power of appointing proper men to the sub departments, and of removing such as are found in competent. Each head of a department ought to I have the same power of appointing and removing those who work tinier him. In this manner the lowest subordinate would be responsible for his con duct to the head of his department ; the head of each department would be responsible for himself and his employes to the Minister; the Departmental Minister would be responsible for himself and the heads of departments to the Prime Minister; and the Prime Minister to Parliament and Public Opinion. Such as organisation, accompanied with perfect publicity, would go far to ensure efficient action in the War Department—and nothing else can.—Daily News. and (71031 A TOTPLINIIIT TO THE ITAZOTTI.) WAR DEPARTMENT, aux' 18. 1855. Lord Panmure has this day received three des patches and their eLeloeurts, of which the following are copies, addressed to his lordship by Field-Marshal the Lord Raglan, G.O B. Before Sebastopol, June 5.1855. My Lord,—l am deeply concerned to have to inform your lordship that Rear Admiral Boxer died on hoard the Jason last night, outside the harbour of Balaklava, atter a very short illness. Ho was removed to that ship in the hope that the pure sea air might prove beneficial to him ; but this • expectation was not fulfilled. His malady made rapid progress, and early in the afternoon of yesterday it was intimated to me that hie life was despaired of. His nephew died of cholera last week, and this melancholy event so deeply effected him that his health at once gave way, and he sank under the same disease. It is well known that this officef,devoted his whole life to the public service. Since he under took the appointment of Admiral Superintendent of the harbour of Balaklava he has applied himself incessantly to the discharge of his arduous duties, exposing himself in all weathers, and he has ren dered a most essential service to the army, by im proving the landing-places Red establishing wharves on the west side of the port, whereby the disembwka tion of stores and troops has been greatly accelerated, and communications with the shore have been ren dered much easier.—l have, &c., RAGLAN. The Lord Panmure, &c. Before Sebastopol, June 5,1855. My Lord,—l have great satisfaction in informing your lordship that I received intelligence the night before last of the e , mcuation of Soujak Kali by the Russians on the 28th ult. It appears that previously to their retirement from the place the troops destroyed the principal buildings and the armament, which consisted of about sixty heavy guns ..nd six mortars, and it is concluded that' ; they have joined the garrison of Anapa, from whence, many of the inhabitants have removed. Sir Edmund Lyons has been so good as to send me the detached report of the naval operations in the Sea of Muff, which will reach England either before I or at the same time as this despatch. They reflect the highest credit on Captain Lyons of the Miranda, and the officers and men serving under his orders, and are remarkable for the intelligence, gallantry, and judgment with which they have been conducted; and it is a matter of much gratulation, which will he I peculiarly felt by her Majesty, that, whilst great I injury has been inflicted ou the enemy in the loss of ' resources of every description, the most brilliant and unwonted success has been achieved in an incredibly short time with only one casualty, and that not of a serious nature. These gallant exploits of the navy have spread joy in our camps and afforded vast satisfaction to every iudividual in the army. A body of French troops, under the command of General Morris and General Canrobert, and a column of the Sardinian corps under General La Marmora, made a reconnaissance on Baidar on the morning of the 3rd. The former proceeded along the Woronzow•road and pushed their cavalry several miles beyond Baidar the latter operated on the left through a mountainous district, and advanced into Baidar, after a fatiguing march ; only a small number of Cossacks showed themselves. Nothing has occurred in front of the town. I enclose the return of casualties to the 3rd in stant inclusive. I have, &c., RAGLAN. The Lord Faumare, teic.

My Lord,—l have the honour to enclose a letter from the lospector-General of Hospitals forwarding the weekly suite of the sick of the army. The cholera has sensibly diminished in the camps before Sebastopol, but it has attacked the Guards and the 31st Regiment, near Balaklava, and some of the new batteries, as well as the followers of the army in that town. It is hoped that the disease will pass from them as it has from the stations where it first appeared. I am grieved to have to say that it has fallen heavily on the Sardinian Contingent, and that General La Marmora is in great anxiety about it. lam ren dering him all the assistance in my power. Whilst writing to your lordship, an officer has brought me a letter from him, announcing that his brother, General La Marmora, who commands his second division, bas been very severely attacked. He has been accommo dated with a quarter at Kadikoi, and every attention shall be paid him.—l have, &c., RAGLAN. The Lord Penmen, &c, &c. GERMANY. Letters from Frankfort of the 14th state that in the sitting of the Germanic Diet of that day M.

The Brussels ludependance has intelligence from Vienna that the reduction in the Austrian army will be of 140,000, and not of 100,000 men, as originally announced. The regiments in Styria have already returned a large number of men to civil &nil a on long but revocable leave. The furloughs are to commence in the third and fourth army corps, stationed in Gallicia, in than rst kof July. y N or o furloughs are to be gred to r t e cavalr artillery. Letters from Berlin state that the new Austrian diplomatic circular, dated the 6th inst., bears marks of composition under the influence of our naval suc cesses in the East. Its language is more favourable to the allies than that of the circular of May 25.

THE IMPERIAL GUARDS IN THE CRIMEA. KAILIESCH BAY, BAT 27. On the arrival of the French Imperial Guards in the Crimea, they were considered as a sort of privi leged corps, and consequentlnot y required to do duty in the trenches before Sebastopol. This did not fail to give rise to some feelings of jealousy amongst the rest of the army, and one night • witty Zouave wrote on the tents of the Guards the following words :—" La Garde de Meure iei, ,nail se se rend \jous _aux trout/sees !" (The Guards live here, but *met go to the trenches.) This cans allusion to tha pond motto of the tormees I:spinal Guards-- " Garde Meurt,mais no se rend pas° (the Guards die, but never sturender)--eo wounded the feelings of their present. successors, that they petitioned General Canrebgrt to eaempt them from their privt lege, and alb* .dtem, o lalte. their turn ia the trenches. The permission. was gianted, and their gallant candoot in the. 'sangermary.night. attack,. au the 22nd and 23rd of last month, has completely obli terated the envy and jealousy previously entertained against them by the other carps of the French army. RUSSIA. OP THI DAILY tows.) ST. PETERSBURG, Jou 10. The Russian garrison of the distant province of Kamtschatka is usually relieved every Eve years. The troops at present on duty there were sent out in the year 1860 by the circuitous, bat still more com modious route of half circumnavigating the globe, in ships of war. In the ordinary routine of the service, ' the garrison ought to be changed in the course of this summer, but as in consequence of the war, and the voluntary surrender of the Russians to a participation in the free navigation of the ocean, they arannable to ; send fresh troops to relieve the garrison this year by sea, u hitherto done, orders have been given to the regiments now stationed at Irkutzk, and other garri sons on the Lake of Baikal, in Siberia, down to the rontiersof China, to change stations with those now (711011 THE in Kamtschatka. General Muravieff, the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian army in Armenia, has received orders to take the field and commence offensive operations. This officer is one of the most experienced and energetic generals in the Russian service, and Is not only inti mately acquainted with the local topography, but well versed in all the details of war, having had \ great experience . and taken part, amongst others , is the campaigns of 1828 and 1829. The only son of the venerable Field - Marshal Prince Paskiewitseb, hitherto colonel in the Guar ds ! and aide-de-camp of the Emperor, has been promoted to the rank of major-general, and appointed to the command of the first brigade of the cavalry of the guard. His Imperial Highnees the Grand Duke Nicholas Nieholaijewitch, brother of the Emperor, is ap pointed to the command of the corps of engineers in Poland, and has left this city for Warsaw, where he will take up his head quartere. It is said that the palace of B-le.dere, formerly inhabited by his uncle, the Grand Duke Constantine, and spoliated by the infuriated mob in 1530, is to be fitted up for Lie re- caption. It is now settled that the Russian land forces are to be divided into three armies, to be called respec tively the army of the north (head-quarters St. Petersburg), the army of the south <now operating in the Crimea), and the army of the centre (head quarters Warsaw). The militia in the government of Charkow and adjacent provinces musters already 200,00 t) men. It was at first expected that Prince Paskiewitech would have inspected them during his late tour of in.ptc don to Brz.sicz, Littffsky, and Lusk in Volhynta, hut it now appears that he will first give them a little more time to learn their military duties. The Grand Duke Constantine appears to find the duties of the naval department too arduous for him, i and at his request the Emperor has appointed a minister of marine in the person of Vice-Admiral 7 Baron Wrangel.

Mr. Taylor ofLiates. Its 'structure afford s an excellent simple of the adaptation of wholly of siege apparatus ; but these arc neither injured nor rendered unfit for their ultimate purpose ; on the con trary, the materials are ao arranged that they are ooly in store, as it were, ready for use as soon as required. The articles employed in the construction have been scaling ladders, gabions, famines, timber ready cut and shaped for gun platforms, a few planks, and some pieces of rope. Two scaling ladders locked into each other at the top, co as to give and derive mutual support, form at certain intervals the columns which separate the aisles from the body of the church, and bear the roof. The framework of the outer wall is made by long upright timbers, which lean against the summits of each set of ladders respectively, and are secured by cords. Aeon a these a few joist beams are lashed, and the outer wall of gabions, though thicker at the base than above, in a I great degree rests against these horizontal supports. To form the wall, the gabions are placed end to end, one above that other, until they reach ;he height of the root. Nothing can be more agreeable during the heat of the day then the sensation produced by the air entering through this gauze work of twigs ; it passes freely, but is so sprinkled, as it were, in its passage, its force is so broken, th.st, however strong without, it fails to cause any unpleasant disturbance w ithin. The /WA% light is broken with an equally pleasing I effect, for the rays tt Inch flied their wey in are so refracted and distributed that all glare and dazzle arc prevented. The roof is made by the platform timbers laid between the tops of the ladders on each side, and at right angles to these the fascines ate laid in regular tows, until a complete cover , ing is formed. The roof is light, admits, of course, of free ventilation, and gives a perfect protection against the direct 1 rays of the sun. At the end opposite;to the entrance into this I truly military church a semicircular sweep is given to the cjisloion wall, and in the recess thus formed.,seeeral sacks stuffed with Stew are arranged, to form a reading desk sad kneeling cushion far the preacher. Planks are laid on each side, from ladder to ladder, resting at a convenient height ou the lower rails, and these benches We appropriated for the use of the weak and convalescents from the hospital; "the other soldiers stand during the service. i When the Union Jack has been thrown over the primitive 1 leading desk before mentioned, and the clergyman is in his meal robes, and the Engineers and Sappers are filling the sperm in their military costume, all seems so appropriate end `such harmony, that should a visitor be among the num ber of the congregation he soon ceases to feel the peculiarity tithe place, and forgets, while engaged in the service, that he is not in one of the ordinary churches, with its stone walls and steepled roof, in his own mother country.
