FPRicE SD. I omitted to state that Captain Dixon, of the Artillery, availed himself of that opportunity to evince the coolest judgment and most determined gallantry, by instantly opening a gun upon the enemy, notwithstanding the con fusion which the bursting of the shell had occasioned, the number of men who had suffered from it, and the great damage the battery had sustained. I have the satisfaction to report to your lordship the ar rival of the 48th and Royal Regiments from Corfu, in her Majesty's ships Leopard and Sidon.

WAR DEPARTMENT, MAY 4. Lord Panmnre has this day received a despatch and its enclosures, of which the following are copies, addressed to his lordship by Field-Marshal the Lord Raglan, G,C.B. Before Sebastopol, April 21. My Lord,—Omer Pasha having considered it expedient to make a reconnaissance in front of Balaklava, with a view to ascertain what force the enemy had on the Tchernaya, he proceeded at daylight on the 19th instant, by the ex treme right of Sir Colin Campbell's position, towards Ka mare, with about twelve battalions of Turkish infantry, having in the plain on his left a body of Frenc h cavalr y and a'battery of horse artillery under General Forey, and two squadrons of heavy cavalry and two squadrons of the 10th Hussars, the whole of which regiment have, I am happy to say, arrived, and half a troop of horse artillery under Colonel Pariby, these detachments of French and. English troops having been placed at his Highness's dis posal by General Canrobert and myself. The enemy showed only a few Cossacks on this side of the river, who remained on a height overlooking Chagou ria till driven from it by a few discharges of rockets by the French artillery, and on the side, behind the village, a small force with 4 guns only was visible. Omer Pacha did not think it desirable to move across the river, but withdrew after he had satisfied himself that the enemy were not in strength, and the troops returned to their camps, the infantry covered by the cavalry and ar tillery. The appearance of the Turkish army was very satisfactory. The rifle pits, in front of the approach from the advance of our trenches on the extreme right, were attacked and carried by assault the night before last in the most gallant manner, by a detachment of the 77th Regiment under Colonel Egerton, forming part of the additional force sent to reinforce the guard of the trenches in the evening. The resistance of the enemy, although obstinate, was 'speedily overcome by the impetuosity of our troops, and the pit, which it was desirable to retain, was, without the loss of a moment, connected with our approach, and thereby furnished protection to the working party to continue its labours without interruption for a considerable time. At the interval, however, of about three hours the enemy brought a heavy fire of artillery and musketry upon the party in advance of the pit, into which they retired, and which they effectually defended and maintained ; but this brilliant achievement was not accomplished without considerable sacrifice of life, and it is most painful to me to have to announce to your lordship the death of Col. Egerton, of the 77th, who was unfortunately killed when forming troops for the support of those on the extreme advance, and of that of Captain Lempriere of the same re giment, who fell in the fir it affair, in which also Colonel Egerton received a contusion that only incapacitated him for duty for a few minutes, and five officers were wounded, three of them dangerously. Colonel Egerton was an officer of superior merit, and conducted all his dutie4 whether in the camp or in the field, in a manner hi g hly to his own honour, and greatly to the advantage of the public; and her Majesty's service could not have sustained a more severe loss, and it is so felt in this army and in the 77th, where he was much beloved, and is deeply lamented. leg has Captain Lempriere was a very young but most promis ingcaoffitcaio er. Captain Owen, whosere both since been amputated , and Lieutenant Baynes, are Brigadier-General Lockynee r most valuable officers of En gineers, as is Captain Ri wounded two night s b e f or.

The admiral will sail with the third division as soon as the ships are manned. A court-martial is ordered to be held on Monday on board the Victory, to try a chief engineer for neglect of duty. The Malacca, 17, Captain Farquhar, went to Spithead yesterday, and joined the fleet. The troops enu merated in The Sun of yesterday embarked on board the Great Tasmania transport, Captain Crowe, yesterday, from Portsmouth dockyard. Among them is Corpojal Cumpton of the 77th Regiment (" R " company) who hasttsb'n 17 years in Russia as a civil engineer, and been in almost every important place in the empire; he has in his knapsack 10 Russian (good) characters from officers and departments in which he has been employed ; he is a native of Maidstone, a fine, hale, stalwart fellow, and says he has 2,000 dollars in a Russian bank. He says he was three days in one of the battalions of British Guards three months ago, but not entered, because the colonel suspected him of being a Russian spy—he speaks and writes Russian so perfectly; he was consequently rejected, and has only been enlisted in England three months. He came over from Parkhurst depot, with the detachment of the 77th, yesterday. He is a well-spoken, respectable-looking soldier, and bears a good character among those whom he has so re cently joined. The Great Tasmania leaves Portsmouth harbour this afternoon. This extraordinary ship is the first that has had the attention of a regularly appointed and authorised agent for transports at Portsmouth, the Lords of the Admi ralty having selected Lieut. Abrm. Parks, of the St. Vincent, and made him " additional" of that ship, to assist in the or ganisation of the transport service at Portsmouth. In early life he did much work in the merchant service ; he therefore enjoys the combined advantages of a thorough knowledge of both the Royal and mercantile marine. He entered the navy on the 24th of December, 1806, and was in the Sirus, 36, under Captain Samuel Pym, at the reduction of the town of St. Paul, in the Ile de Bourbon (1806), and subsequently served in the Raisonnable, 64, the Melpomene, the Chesapeake, the Portia, the Julia, the Victory, and later commanded the Pike, the Cuckoo, and the Dasher steam-packets. RETURN OF FOUR GUN-BOATS.--REPORTED LOSS OF THE DAPPER. The Pylades and Volcano, which loft Sheerness on Thursday with the gun-boats Redwing, Thistle, Starling, Dapper, and Badger, were obliged (in consequence of the gale of wind which came on suddenly in the evening) to cast off the gun boats, aid all anchored under the Gunfleet between 10 and 11 p.m. John Barnett, master of the smack Concord, of Colchester, then riding near the Gunfleet, had his attention called to a number of rockets that were sent up in a south- 1 easterly direction from his vessel, apparently from some ves sel in distress in the Black Deeps. Shortly afterwards five guns were fired from the same vessel, and both the Kentish Knock and the Sunk Light-vessels continued at intervals dur ing the night to fire rockets and burn blue lights. At mid night the master of the Concord slipped from his anchor and 70 fathoms of chain (the sea bend too heavy to get it), for the purpose of going into the Black Deeps to ascertain what vessel it was, and to render assistance to her ; while under way she passed two large steamers, the Pylades and Vol cano, also two gun-boats, then,riding very heavily under the Gunfleet. At dawn of day she boarded the vessel in the Black Deeps, which proved to be the Redwing gun boat, commanded by Lieutenant Forbes. The Redwing was then under steam, proceeding up from the Sunk Light-vessel, steering for the Gunfleet Light. The Redwing spoke the Pylades, and obtained leave to proceed to Sheerness, having lost both bower anchors, when Barnett was engaged to act as a pilot to Sheerness. He boarded the Redwing about four miles above the Gunfleet, and piloted her into Sheerness, ar riving there about 9.30 a.m. The Badger spoke the Dapper, the latter then being on shore, with the sea making a breach over her. The weather at the time prevented the Badger rendering any assistance to the Dapper, the officer in com mand of the Dapper stating that she was on ,shore, striking heavily. It appears that the Volcano, when' towing, fouled several of the gunboats by driving athwart their hawser, and did damage to each of them. The Redwing, to prevent damage, cut her'towing hawser and cleared. It is feared that all on board the Dapper have perished. There appears some uncertainty where the Dapper was ou shore ; from the best information that can be obtained she was on the West Rocks, The Pyla.des and Volcano 'remain riding near the Gunfleet. MILITARY. On Wednesday a company of Artillery arrived at Liverpool from Dublin, and proceeded on the following morning to Portsmouth, whence they were to embark for the Crimea. The 15th Hussars, now stationed at Exeter, consist of 348 men and 270 horses, and it isunderstood that theyaro to hold themselves in readiness to depart for the Crimea, though the route has not yet been received. In the same barracks are also 200 horses and 41 recruits belonging to the 11th Hussars who are being trained for active service. 17 recruits, with 1 lieutenant and 1 sergeant, from tho depot, are expected to start from Plymouth for tho East in the course of a few days. Within the last 10 days 50 horseshave been received, and the regiment is also fast recruiting its men. It is intended to augment the army in the Crimea by two regiments of cavalry of 700 sabres each and five battalions of infantry, each mustering 1,200 bayonets, making a total of 7,400 cavalry and infantry. In addition to the above the horse brigade, siege and field trains of the Royal Artilery, are to be increased ; and the line regiments in the Mediterra nean and lonian Islands will proceed to join the army in the East. It has not as yet been officially announced what regi ments aro to be placed under orders for active service ; but it is believed that the 3d Light Dragoons, quartered in Man chester, and the 7th Hussars, at York, will form the cavalry reinforcements, and that the infantry will consist of the 51st King's Own Light Infantry, from Manchester ; 80th Foot, from Fort George ; 82d Foot, from Edinburgh ; 94th Foot, from Windsor ; and the 3d batta ion of the Rifle Brigade (newly raised), from Portsmouth. Captain Broadhead, R.N., is down on the Durham coast enrolling men for the Naval Coast Guard volunteers. There has been a meeting of seamen and fishermen at Sunderland, and it is thought that the captain will succeed better among the fishermen and watermen this year thaw last. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS.

SlR, — Prevented by illness from visiting London, I was obliged to write to a friend to call at the rooms of the Spanish American Committoe,-to-aeok.some explana tion of the intelligence per last mail, referred to in your valuable journal of the 16th inst. I had heard that ! Mr. Giro had some months ago published a bond in xtenso, and had much offended the local journals, or perhaps the Government itself, by a rather hasty reply to some observations in the papers ; and some persons condemned, and do still condemn, Mr. Giro. His great and only offence appears to others to be his assertion, that the loan, being contracted at a very high price, every principle of justice, sound policy, and honour made it incumbent on the Buenos Ayres Government to settle the question, especially after near 30 years' delay. It seems the journal called the Tribunal contradicts Giro, and tells him " he lies," and a letter of Messrs. Baring is published to prove that all the money the Buenos Ayres Republic obtained was only 700,0001., or at the rate of 701., instead of 850,0001., or at that of 851. per cent. on the 1,000,0001. of bonds originally issued. Cer tainly the discrepancy of 150,000/. sterling is very mon strous one, as no commissions, percentages, printing, or other charges, &c., &c., against Buenos Ayres could absorb such a sum, or, indeed, one might suppose even a third of it. Messrs. Baring's letter must evidently have been supplied by-the Finance Minister, and have been dislodged from the Archives of the Hacienda for the express purpose of refuting Giro. As might have been ebxpectect,hlitokhleedleeerstbtaetorar ofMessrs.Baring is one of a tho r ughly learn n, and under i theus i b n o e n s sd the Buenos Ayres Governmenttrmheeuciesritvsebigdengathinteiaslfacle7tahand evtaelrulainblel adAvadnraceittoifngn,eaaralyththeeg r e rters of a million g they received thi s l arge sum, it is vuear m n refusing t o make a iroper arrange' Go m o s e t n t discreditabledoe s, that mtoenfitnwdiththem Mr. Giro, or even with Messrs. Baring themselves. It has even been reported the l a tt er h a d, , through their Engli s h agents C aptainarbitrators, sand White and Mr. White, o ff ered to act a s ar bi tra that should satisfy at once the English bondholders and the Buenos Ayres Government. But I only have this last point as a mere rumour, though it seems by no means improbable under the circumstances. The discrepancy above alluded to, though very larg e, may admit of a satisfactory explanatio n ; and really,as, out of 30 years since the loan was contracted, we have to count 26 years of suspended interest, it is immaterial whether 85, 75, 70, or even 50, nay 30, per cent, was received by the non-paying and defaulting Government. It is clear, however, beyond all doubt, dispute, and ca vil, that at least 700,0001. of English money were sent to Buenos Ayres. She now remits monthly 5,000 dols., or 1,0001. only—i.e., 12,0001. annually, and actually boast' of sending this paltry sum, scarcely 1 per cent. on 1,000,000/. of bonds. I think, sir, Mr. Giro has great reason to complain, and great cause to use, even if he did, violent upbraidings. But nothing of the sort. He is only much too mild and gentle. Mr. Giro, no doubt, received his instructions from the committee, and if he asserted that 851. per cent. was actually paid by the English subscribers to the loan, he perhaps took his hint from the book of admitted authority—viz., Mr. D. M. Evans's excellent edition of "Fortune's Epitome of the Foreign Funds," which state that the contract of thi s loan was 851. per cent. Let any one, who may feel an interest on the subject, refer also to the journals of the 7th July, 1824, and other dates, the same typo of 85 is given with the additional remark that, on the first day of issue of this unfortunate contract, it was done at 31 1 premium, or at 881 ; soon after it was at 07, and even as high as 102 ex div. Indeed it stood most in favour of all the South American bonds, Brazilian and Chilian not excepts 1. I perceive the bonds are signed by Parish Ro bertson and also by one Felix Castro, probably a Buenos Ayrean by the name. They are countersigned by Messrs. Baring. What I insist on is, that whether 700,0001. or 850,0007., were obtained in the London market, it is too bad to find the defaulting Government positively adding insult to injustice, and sneeringly advising Mr. Giro and the creditors only to use patience a little longer after 30 years' trial, and when Buenos Ayres is the only one of the once n umerous defaulting republics that pays nothing or next to nothing. To suppose tbat Robertson and Felix Castro ran away with 150,0001. would be, as our French friends call it, use peu (rep fort; but those gen tlemen may really throw some light upon this now inter esting subject should they be still in existence. Perhaps, sir, some of these remarks may draw forth explanations from others and original bondholders. This lam not, though I am a considerable bondholder, and a very great loser by having purchased these dishonoured Buenos Ayres bonds. _ In the minds of many persons a question will naturally arise —via., was there a tacit agreement with the Finance Minister of the time (one Senor Garcia) that, if 70 per cent., or 700,0001., was obtained, or 3,500,000 hard dol lars, the contractors, Robertson and Felix Castro, with others—perhaps of Buenos Ayres—were welcome to pocket all the money they could ,extract beyond it ! The 700,0001., then, was what they wanted to touch for their unpaid worthless 1,000,0001. (*paper. This Garcia was considered an honourable Minister, or, of course, Messrs. Baring would never have meddled with this (to the Eng lish creditors) most disastrous transaction. All the resources, revenues, &c., are solemnly pledged in these bonds. Has Buenos Ayres no revenues I and has she bad none for 30 years ? She has ample revenues. Is her home debt paid ? Yes, most punctually, and always has been. Where does the responsibility of this loan lie ? Clearly with Buenos Ayres. For P. Robert son and Felix Castro were the authorised agents of the Republic, and if dissatisfied, after keeping the money 30 years, or that they could not contract a loan on even better terms than they effected this , why do they not find out and attack Robert son an d Felix Castro, and make them disgorge, if they complain of shortcomings, to the Treasury, instead of tauntingly and derisively attacking Giro, Lord Palmerston, and the poor duped bondholders, in language I will not repeat ? A pre cious robbery it has proved, for it is clear that neither 700,0001., and much less 850,0001. (that was the astound ing sum really raised in London in 1824), was never in tended as a free gift to this most ungrateful people, but such it has proved, to the great loss of the lenders, up to this time. I will, in conclusion, remark that this case now as- Burnes a character perfectly incomprehensible. Here is th• case of a debtor that can pay, and will not pay, al ways giving fraudulent preferences to its home and other debts, and defying its English creditors, offering schemes of arrangement to Mr. Giro, that the Minister knows must be rejected ; as, for instance, last'year, proposing an annual remittance of 60,0001. sterling to the house of Messrs. Baring, in liquidation of principal and interest, but also proposing, as a counter-balance, and a bar to settlement, that all interest on 1,750,0001. should cease I No wonder Giro publishes their bond in extenso, after a suspension of 30 years ; and the best thing the committee can do, and I hope will immediately set about, is to imitate the example, and publish the bond, letters, ani all the correspondence, in every city of Europe and America. This is a case not unlike that Spanish chaos of bankrupt rascality exposed this very day in the co lumns of the Morning Post. It is a case, iu short, calling strongly for the interference of the British Go vernment in favour of its defrauded subjects, who, for return for 30 years' patient endurance, and in payment of an admitted receipt of three-quarters of a million ster ling, so far back as 1824, are taunted with low ribaldry and insulting defiance.—l am, sir, your obedt. servant, Brighton, April 27, 1855. G. W. OPERATIONS AGAINST TIIE RUSSIAN FORTRESSES. It is understood to be the intention of the British and French Governments to send a strong force of artillery and infant!) , to assist in the operations about to be re sumed against the Russian fortresses in the Gulfs of Finland and Bothnia, and the Baltic. It is stated that the expedition will number 25,000 men, France supply ing the greater portion ; but, as a set-off, the British Government is to increase the naval forces, and to fur nish tonnage for the conveyance of the troops, which will embark sufficiently early to reach the scene of ope rations before the ice breaks up. The British will em bark at Leith, and the French at Brest or Boulogne. According to the Wanderer of Vienna, the real co r n:: of the insurrection in the Ukraine was, that the re t r e u re • of the peasants were completely exhaustedbi by o b t for the southern army.
