The carrying off of the wounded Russians wars more difficult and more tedious, not only because the number was so much more considerable, but because it was ne cessary to go and bring them in part from the right Dank of the Tchernaya, and under the fire of the enemy, who, from motives impossible to conceive, never ceased throwing shells on the ground, covered with their owa killed and wounded, the whole time that our soldier* were employed in carrving off these latter. That opera tion was not terminated uetil yesterday morning. " The number of wounded carried to the ambulances after this combat was 810 French, of whom 46 were officers, and 1,664 Ru-sians, of whom 38 were officers, forming a total of 2,474 men, added to the number, already very considerable, of those in our ambulances. " I have said above that the wounded French were divided between the ambulances of the 2d corps and those of hta I-quarters. Whatever might be our desire to treat the Russians in the same manner as our own soldier, the encumberment of the ambulances rendered it impossible to do so. The officers were sent to head quarters, and 453 others were divided amongst the dif ferent ambulances. For the rest, I was obliged to esta blish a temporary ambulance at Kamiesh, turning to account the old wooden house camp, erected there during the winter for the newly-landed troops. Hospi tal attendants were furnished by the brigade, charged with the works of fortification at Kamiesch. The me dicA.l staff of the ambulance was very insufficient for so long a task ; but Admiral bruat, having been pleased to place a t my di sposal twelve surgeons of the fleet, all the dressings were effected rapidly, and yesterday, at ten in the evening, not a single wounded man remained without having been attended to. The administrative set vice, and that of the pharmaceutical department are, besides, insured by the permanent hospital established at Kamfesch. Sub Intendant de Preval, having been informed by the telegraph, had had this temporary asy lum prepared in advance, and when the wounded ar rived at Kamiescb, they found there beds, drinks, and broth ready for them. "I c.m_happy, M. le Marechal, in having a fresh °ma. Rion to inform you how well I am satisfied with the hospital service of the army. Every one has shown the greatest zeal and intelligence, but I cannot too fre quently place before your Excellency the names of the two principal heads of the service, M. de Seganville, sub-military intendant, and M. Scrive, physician-in chief to the army. "To day, the chips and frigates of the squadron and the steamers of the adminisVation will carry to Con stantinople about 2,000 sick and wounded so that the number of men in our hospitals will then be nearly the same as before the battle.—l am, &c., " BLANCHOT."

The 17th Russian division, which had descended, throwing forward large bands of skirmishers, met with no better success. Received most resolutely by Gene ral Cier's brigade, and by a halt battery of the Imperial Guard, harrassed on its left by the troops of Trotti's d:vision, which closed in with it, tbis.division was forced to recross the Tchernaya and fall back behind the bat teries of position that lined the heights from which it had set out. Front this moment, 9 o'clock in the morning, the movement of the enemy in retreat was fully apparent ; his long c,lonins filed away as rapidly as poss ibl e, „ n . der protection of considerable masses of cavalry and a numerous artillery. At one moment I had the intention of causing a part of the cavalry to charge the remains of the 17th Rus sian division, and drive it from the bridge of Choulion to that of Tractir. I had drawn ont for this object seve• ral squadrons of Aftican Chasseurs, with whom were joined some Sardinian squadrons lid one of General Scarlett's regiments, the 12th Lancers (of India). But the retreat of the Russians was so prompt that we could only have made but a small number of prisoners, and this fine cavalry might have been' exposed to some of the enemy's batteries still in position. I deemed it pre ferable not to expose it there f.r so insignificant a result. General de la Marmara, for the rest, •did not require this support., but without it was able to retake in a very bold manner the advanced positions that his small posts bad occupied on the heights of the Choulion. At 3 o'clock the whole of the enemy's army had dis appeared. The division of the Guard and the division Dulac relieved the divisions engaged, to whom it was proper to give some repose. I sent back to the Ist corps Levaillant's division, and the cavalry returned to its ordinary bivouacking ground: This brilliant affair reflects the highest honour on the infantry, the horse artillery of the guard, on that of the reserve and the dtv.fejen.w. t .artillery. I - shall ere long beg your Excellency to lite:ce before the eyes of the Em peror the names of those who have deserved rewards ; and to submit to his Majesty's sanction such rewards as I shall have been able to distribute in his name. Our losses are doubtless a subject of regret, but have no relative proportion to the importance of the results obtained, and to those we have inflicted on the enemy. We have 8 superior officers wounded, 9 subaltern officers killed and 53 wounded, 172 non-commissioned officers and soldiers killed, 146 missing, and 1,163 wounded. The Russians have left in our bands 400 prisoners ; the number of their killed may be estimated at more than 3,000, and of their wounded at more than 5,000, of whom 1,626 soldiers and 38 officers have been admit ted into our ambulances. Among the dead collected by us, there are the bodies of two generals, whose names I have not yet been able to ascertain. The Sardinian army, which has fought so valiantly by our side, has had about 250 men disabled. It has in flicted on the enemy's army losses of much greater mag nitude ; 100 prisoners and about 150 wounded remain in its power. I regret to announce to your Excellency that General de la Marmora has informed me that Gene ral the Count of Montevecchio, whose character and talents he highly esteens'ed, has fallen gloriously at the head of his brigade. I ought to state to your excellency the rapidity with which the English cavalry of General Scarlett, which General Simpson had been so kind as to place at my disposal, arrived on the scene of action. The martial attitude of these magnificent squadrons betrayed an im patience which the successful and prompt issue of the day did not permit me to satisfy. The English and Sardinian batteries of position and the Turkish battery sent by General Osman Pacha near Alsou fired with much skill and success. I have thanked Osman Pacba for the prompitude with which he sent to me, under Sefer Pacba (Gen. Koscielzki) six Turkish battalions, four of which during the day occupied the neighbouring passages of Tchorgoun. Nothing remarkable occurred during the entire day on the Sebastopol side. Generals de Sallee and Boequtt were ready to repulse energetically any attempt on the part of the besieged. I transmit to your Excellency together with this re port the copy of a plan for the battle of the 16th, found on the body of a Russian General, who is thought to be General Read, who commanded the enemy's right, and was specially charged with the attark of the Traktir bridge.—Deign to accept, &c., the General-in-Chief.

The Caradoc was docked yesterday at Woolwich, to commence her sea trim, and the Seagull gun-boat was undocked. The Vixen was taken into basin to be stripped, and the Bloodhound and Alecto were taken out of basin to coal ; the former goes to the coast of Africa. The Advice steam•tender is coaling, and sails to-morrow for Plymouth. Upwards of 4,000 tons of projectiles have been shipped from the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich Within the last sis days. The squadron under the command of Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane, K.C.8., which left Portsmouth yesterday fortnight to await her Majesty's arrival at Boulogne, returned to Portsmouth yesterday afternoon, and Sir Thomas shifted his flag again to the Victory.

Orders for the right wing of the army, commanded by General Read. The draughts of the 92d and 931 Highlanders, ordered for the Mediterranean, left Edinburgh on Tuesday for Liverpool ; and those of the 42d, 71st, and 79th simul taneously left Stirling, Perth, and Dundee for the same destination. Between 400 and 500 Highlanders, composed of de tachments from the 60th, 92d, 71st, 42d, and 93d Regi m-nts, arrived in Liverpool from Aberdeen yesterday, and embarked on hoard the paddle-steamer Hansa, which will sail this morning for Malta. The Dublin Freeman of Wednesday says The troops at present encamped on the Curragh number 5,000, and we understand that a large extent of stabling 4 1,,,,i n , i _provided in t.U o uoigbbourhood of Kildare, New bridge, and Kiloullen, for the purpose of concentrating at least 2,000 horse for active field exercise. The troops at present encamped comprise the 60th Rifles, the County of Down, the Longford, the Westmeath, the North Cork, the County of Dublin, the County of Limerick, and County of Clare Militia Regiments, in all about 5,000 men, exclusive of 250 officers. We also understand that tent accommodation has been provided for 2,000 men, should it at any time be required. The foundations of the Catholic and Protestant chapels have been laid. Both these structures will be similar, in size, and will measure in length 100 feet by 60 la breadth. They are to be of superior construction, and, although built of wood, will possess some features of Gothic architecture. The quarter erected for the Commander of the Forces will be given up this or to-morrow by the contractors. It has all the appearance of a beautiful villa, and its in ternal arrangements are in perfect accordance with ele gance and comfort. We regret that an occurrence took place last Sunday which was likely to endanger the peace of the entire camp. On the soldiers of the Clare Militia returning from mass the band of the regiment were or dered to form and play before a small number of soldiers —not more than 20—who were proceeding to the Pro testant place of worship at Newbridge. The Catholics belonging to the band refused to move, and several of the soldiers expressed their determination to break every in strument that should be played on the occasion. An at tempt was made by the adjutant and several of the officers to enforce the order, but without success, and we under stand that the adjutant and some of the officers were as saulted by the soldiers, several of whom are in custody. In consequence of this circumstance, orders have been issued to the effect that no military music shall be per formed on the Sundays before any regiment in camp while proceeding to any place of worship. A large num ber of the County of Limerick Militia arrived at the camp by train from Buttevant at 3 o'clock yesterday. They were met at the Curragh station by the bands of the different regiments in camp, who played them in amid the cheers o f th e th ousan d s o f v i s it o rs present." COMPOSITION OF THE TROOPS.

On the 15th of August, at nightfall, General Read will descend with all his troops from Mackenzie heights iu the track of Lieut.-General Liprandi, and will form his two divisions into a column upon the height occupied by the new redoubt, near the great road, having on his left the second division commanded by General Liprandi. Ho will leave all his baggage in the camp, and will have at hand a sufficient number of waggons in which the foot soldiers may deposit their knapsacks. In these waggons he will have placed culinary utensils and brandy. The men must on no account have with them less than four days' provisions, a pound of meat, cans of water, and camp kettles. Each regiment will have a chest of necessary stores, and two ambulance carriages. The remaining ambulance vehicles will be under the orders of General Zouroff, to whom is committed the service of removing the wounded. The cavalry and artillery will take with them whatever forage they need. The best place for depositing this will have to be after wards determined. The head-quarters for the 15th will be on Mackenzie's heights. General Read, having first concentrated his troops on these heights, will send an officer to the general-in-chief to announce his arrival. On the 16th, during the attack, the general-in-chief will be on the slope of Mackenzie's heights, near the new redoubt. v. At four o'clock on the morning of the 16th, while the 17th division forms on the Telegraph height, Gene ral Read will advance, form the 7th and 12th divisions of infantry in order of battle out of range of the enemy, and place the regiment of Lancers in the rear as a re serve, with his Cossacks. He will combine his move ment with that of General Liprandi, and advance to wards the Tchernaya so as to be able to cannonade the enemy on the heights of Fediouchine, prepare to cross the river, and finally take possession of the heights of Fediouchine upon the receipt of orders to that effect. For this purpose he should have near his 7th and 12th divisions of infantry, detachments of sappers and regi mental detachments, well exercised beforehand in the use and management of flying bridges, to throw them promptly over the aqueduct, and afford a passage to the infantry and artillery. As soon as orders to advance on the heights of Fe. diouchine shall be received the troops are to pass the Tchernaya to the right and left of the bridge ; the da mage caused by the artillery will be made good by the sappers ; the bridges will be thrown under the orders of superior officers commanding the special detachments.

After the regiment had gone through the usual military evo lutions, he expressed himself in the highest terms as to its efficiency. The Cornwall Artillery Militia wore recently called upon to volunteer into the Royal Artillery, but only one man offered himself, and he did not pass muster. Seve ral recruiting parties are busily engaged at Falmout therh in obtaining recruits from the Cornwall Rangers and o militia regiments.

COURTENAY, Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. " We believe Mr. Coartenay's experience in the treatment of stric ture during the last twenty years has equalled, if, indeed, it has not surpasse4, that of any of his contemporaries. It is, therefore, no matter of surorise that he should enjoy the reputation of being a most dexterous and skilful manipulator with urethral instruments ; and when it is remembered that the lamented Liston used to assert that the introduction of instruments through a stricture which had previously been impermeable to them, was the most difficult in the whole range of surgical operations, it must be no slight source of gratification on Mr. Courtenay's part, to have achieved the reputation he has in this respect ; and for our part, with the knowledge we have of his experience, we know of no man to whose care we would with greater confidence entrust the treatment of a severe case of stricture of the urethra."—Medical Circular.

THE GREAT WIZARD OF THE • NORTH begs most respectfully to announce that this favourite place of amusement will OPEN on MONDAY, Sept. 3d, under new au edees, and with a series of Extraordinary Pe-formances. As every. hing the Wizard lays his hand on necessarily undergoes some tart , ing change. the lyceum Theatre will, by a wave of his Magic Vend, be instantly transformed into the Wizard's Psycentautheum while the el es of Entertainments presented within its walls wig be is unlike anythMe, that has been seen before as it is vossible to con- Ave. Preparations have been in progress far many months past to oroduce these Entertainments on a scale of magnitude and excelle , ce worthy of the Wizard's fame and popularity. Ills assistant spirits have been ordered to spare no expense in the compounding of their pells ; and the result it is hoped will he an Entertaannent which, or " startling effects," will far outstrip the wildest French mele. rams ; with " rapid changes" more surprising than an actor's play !)g twenty parts, in twenty different dresses ; with tricks more •vonderful than those of an adulterating tradesman: and " trans eenetions" which would make the alchemists of old expire with envy. exOFESSOB—ANDERSON (the Great Wizard of the North) having comeleted the entire circuit of the globe, and visited Almost every part of Europe, Am aim India, and Australia, attended everywhere with a degree of success unexampled, he believes, in the career of any individual aspiring to the titles of a co , rn. po'itan artiste, will give hi; extraordinary DELASSEMENS MAGIQUES in the above rheatre for a limited period, preparatory to his final retirement from public life. No exertion will be spared on his part to secure the continuance of the public favour which he has hitherto enjoyed wherever he has presented himself. On the Continent, from t Petersburg to Mad'id; in America, from Canada to Me•lco, and from New York to San Francisco; everywhere, in short, Mae the Wizard's marvels succeeded most effectually in " astonishing the natives" of the various countries visited. Ilis performances have been prtroni'ed oy audiences amounting in the ag tregate to very !natty millions ; and he is the only British Professor of his art who, in addition to having been honoured by all the Courts of Europe, has also been commanded to perform before her Majesty tee QUEEN. Without attempting to exalt the Professor's art beyond its due deserts, let it suffice to say it is his art. He has devoted h mself , er years to the perfecting it, and rend- ring it more fit 4- ed to amuse and entertain the public. That lie has been successful in his efforts he thinks, from what he has said, is pretty ce•tain ; indeed a life time spent in diligent pur•uit of excellence in any art, whatever it may he, can scarcely fail in producing 'some degree of efficiency. It is the result of this long study that will he presented at the Lyceum Theatre. Feats in Modern Magic hitherto unattempted will be exhibited by the nid of apparatus outrivalling any that has been previously constructed. n th r feature in Professor Anderson's Delassemens Magiques will he a complete disclosure of some of the principal impostures or the age, with illustrations of the mechanism, mystery, acid mischief of 4pirit-rapping, Table-turning, Clairvoyance, and other delusions, to he classed generally under the now popular head of the " sell " theory. In the Wizard's performances there %ell be found mirth, for those who seek merriment ; mystery, for those who fancy the mysterious; parados es, for the lovers of the paradoxical; wonders, for these who like the wonderful ; startling surprises, 'or those eager for excitement. There will be science for the sage, wisdom for the philosopher, art for the artistic, and cheerfulness for all. It will be the Professor's object, in fact, to produce a play each night in which the audience themselves shall be the actors, and which, whatever the plot may be, shall certainly be free from the fault of many mo dern dramas the fault of lacking incident or exciting situations and unexpected denouemens. Such will he the general character of the Wizard's Banquet of Wonders. It will be an ordinaiy to which he will welcome all. The bill of fare will shortly be published in the programme now preparing; and Professor Anderson, the carver of the feast, will spare no effort to please the t Iste of every guest who may honour his table with his presence—cutting it fat or lean as each may e ash.

THE BATTLE OF THE TCHERNAYA. OFFICIAL DESPATCHES. (Front a Supplement to Tuesday's Gazette.) WAR DEPARTMENT, AUG. 29. Lord Panmure has this day received two despatches and their Enclosures, of which the following are copies, addressed to his Lordship by General Simpson. Before Sebastopol, Aug. 29. My Lord,--In my despatch of the 14th instant, I in formed your lordshipthat I had reason to believe that the Russians would attempt, by a vigorous attack, to force us to raise the siege. This they endeavoured to do o❑ the morning of the 16th, but the result was most glorious to those of the Allied troops who had the good fortune to be engaged. roe action commenced before daylight, by a heavy column of Russians under the command of General Li prandi, and compised of the 6th and 17th Divisions, with elio 4th ana 7to recervp, attacking the advanced posts of the Sardinians, - - The ground occupied by them is on commanding hills on the right of the position, on the left batik of the Sou - haia river, where it forms its junction with the Tcher naya, with two advanced posts on the opposite side. These were held with very determined gallantry for a considerable time, but being separated from their sup ports by the river, and not having the protection of ar tillery, they were compelled to leave the most advanced one. About the same time, the sth and 12th Divisions, to which was added a portion of the 17th, advanced asrainst the bridge of Traktir, held by one battalion of French infantry of the line, who were for a short time obliged to yield and fall back upon the main supports ; with these, however, they quickly retook the bridge at the point of the bayonet. Again the Russians attacked with persevering courage, and were enabled to follow up their advantage by gaining the road ad ; their heights whichsu ccess was precipitously butmomentary—they on each s side o f the o were driven back across the river, leaving the ground covered with dead and wounded. The Russian General, in no way daunted by the fail ure of his two attempts, ordered a second column, of equal force to the first, to attack ; they advanced with such impetuosity, covered by the fire of their numerous artillery, that a third time the bridge was carried, and the heights above it crowned, but they were again re pulsed, and retired in great confusion into the plain, followed by the bayonets of our gallant Allies. The General Officer who commanded the Russian column, asd who is supposed to be General Be-+d, was killed, and in his possession was found the orders fur the battle, signed by Prince Gortschakoff, who com manded in person. From these it would appear that it was a most deter .nined attempt to force us to raise the siege. Had they succeeded, Balaklava, was to have been attacked by one portion of their army, whilst the heights on which we now are, were to have been stormed with the other ; at the sane time a vigorous sortie was to have been made from the town on the French works, on our extreme left, from the Quarantine, and another on the works on our extreme right on Mount Sap-tune. The action which I have endeavoured to describe is most glori( us to the arms of the French and Sardinian troops. To meet the force of the Russians, the former had but 12,000 infantry, and 4 batteries of artillery engaged; the latter had 10,000 men in position, 4,500 actually engaged, and 24 pieces of cannon. The Russian force consisted of from 50,000 to 60,000 men, with 160 pieces of artillery, and cavalry to the am' unt of 6,000. This disparity of numbers will readily explain to your Lordship the difficulty that would have been experi enced had an attempt been made to follow up the advan tage by a pursuit. The Russian retreat, moreover, was protected by the fire from the heavy guns in position on the Mackenzie heights. The loss sustained by the Russians is estimated at be tween 5,000 and 6,000 men, including 600 prisoners, whilst on the part of the Allies it does not amount to more than 1,000 men. This brilliant affair has caused the greatest delight amongst the ranks of the allied army ; and while it adds fresh lustre to the gallant achievements of the French arms, it is with the utmost pleasure that I have to re cord the intrepid conduct and gallant bearing of the Sardinian troops, under General Della Mat more, who have for the first time met, conquered, and shed their blood against our common enemy, who is now disturbing the peace of Europe. Captain Mowbray's battery of 32 pounder howitzers was placed in advance with the Sardinian troops, and did most excellent service in preventing the advance of the enemy's artillery. Our cavalry, under Lieutenant-General Sir J. Scarlett, K.C.B" was placed in th e pl a i n o f Balaltslava, prepared to take advantage of any circumstance that might pre sent itself, but the opportunity did not arise for calling upon their services. I regret that I am unable to give a more detailed ac count of the part performed by the Sardinians, as up to this time I have not received General Della Marmora's report. I have, &c., JAMES SIMPSON, General Commanding The Lord Panmure, &c. &c. Before Sebastopol, Aug. 18, 1856. My Lord,—General Pelissier havinff announced to .. me that the batteries against the Malakoff and adjacent works were prepared to open fire, arrangements were made that a steady fire should be commenced yesterday morning against those works and the Redan. This day, and the effect produced a sas s tmuc h hrou agsh wasont atnhte anticipated. c ipated. The Russian fire, which at first answered briskly, became by thr evening feeble. Iu the afternoon a shell from one of om mortar batteries ignited and caused the explosion of a vreat number of shells in one of the en envy's batteries, doing apparently much damage. I regret to have to report the deaths of Captain Old field, of the Royal Artillery, and Comn 'ander Hammet, of the Royal Navy, amongst the nunil )er of casualties caused by the fire of yesterday. Majce rC. S. Henry, of the Royal Artillery-, received a severe wound, and has had his right arm amputated; ho is, I am rejoiced to add, doing well. I enclose the list of casualties, I have, &c..

Monsieur le Marechal,—You have learned by my telegraphic despatches of yesterday and the day before the general results of the battle on the Tchernaya ; I hasten to-day to forward to your Excellency my detailed report concerning that day so glorious for our arms. For some days previously, although the enemy ab stained from any apparent movement, certain signs in duced us to think that he would come and attack us on tl tb, ,he line of the Tchernaya. You are acquainted with iese positions, which are excellent, and protected throughout their entire extent by the Tchernaya it self, and by an aqueduct flowing from it which forms a second obstacle. The Sardinian army occupies the whole of the right, opposite Tchorgoun ; the French troops hold the centre and the left, which is con nected, after a depression of the ground, with our plateaux of Inkerman. Independently of a few fords, not very numerous or good, two bridges keep up the communication across the Tchernaya, and the small canal ; the one being rather lower down from Tchorgoun is covered by the Piedmontese guns ; the other, called the Traktir bridge, is beneath at the centre of the French positions. If from these positions a person looks before him to the other side of the Tchernaya, he sees towards the right the heights of Choulion, which, after extending in undulating tablelands, fall rather abruptly towards the Tchernaya, below Tchorgoun, in front of the Picdmou tese. These heights decline opposite our centre, and from this point, as far as the rocky sides of the Mac kenzie table lands, there runs a plain from three to four kilometres in breadth. It is along this plain that the Mackenzie road runs, then crosses the Tchernaya at the Traktir-bridge, and having traversed our position, opens into the plain of Balaklava. A good look out was kept along the whole of our line. The Turks, who occupy the hilly eminence of Ba• laklava, were on the alert, and watched Alsou ; and General d'Allonville, who had been also warned, re doubled his vigilance in the lofty valley of Baidar. For the rest, I felt easy about the, whole of that extreme right; it is one of those mountainous regions where it is impos sible to manoeuvre masses; the enemy could only make feints in that direction. This is what, in fact, happened. In the night between the 15th and 16th General d'Allon ville sent word that a force was in his front, but that he should be able to confront and keep in awe the enemy, who made no attempt on that side, and did not dare attack him. During this time the bulk of the Russian troops, hav ing descended the Mackenzie heights, or issuing through Ai-Tudor, advanced under cover of the right towards the Tchernaya ; on the right, the 7th, sth, and 12th divi sions crossed the plain ; and on the left, the 17th Divi sion, a part of the 6th and of the 4th, came along the tablelands of Choulion. A very strong body of horse and 160 guns supported all this infantry. A little before dawn, the outposts of the Sardinian army, stationed as scouts along the heights of Choulion, fell back and came to announce that the enemy was ad vancing in conciderable farce. Very shortly after, in fact, the Russians placed their position guns in a row along the heights on the right bank of the Tchernaya, and opened fire upon us. General Herbillon, who commanded the French troops at this point, had made his arrangements for the fight ; to the right of the Traktir road, the Faucheaux with the 3d battery of the 12th of artillery ; at the centre, his own division with the 6th company of the 13th ; to the left, the division Camou with the 4th bat- tery of the 13th. On his side, Gen. de la Marti:lora had ranged the troops of his army on their fighting positions. At the same time, General Morris's fine division of African chasseurs, rapidly joined by the numerous and valiant English cavalry of General Scarlett, posted itself behind the mounds of Kamara and Traktir. It was intended that this cavalry should fall on the enemy's flank in case he should succeed in forcing his way through one of the outle s of Tchorgoun, Traktir, or the hollow that lies to the left of General Camou. Colonel Forgeot, commanding the artillery of the Tchernaya line, kept in readiness to act a reserve of six horse-batteries, two of them belonging to the Imperial Guard. Six Turkish battalions, from the army of Osman Pacha, commanded by Sefer Pacha, came to afford us their assistance. Lastly, I had brought up Levaillant's division of the Ist corpQ, the division Dulac of the 2d corps, and the Imperial Guard—imposing reserves, capable of repairing any accident, however unfavourable. The tbiek haze that enveloped the low grounds of the Tchereaya, and the smoke of the cannonade that had just commenced, prevented my distinguishing the point against which the enemy depended on making an effort, when at our extreme left the 7th Russian divi sion advanced to attack the division Camou. Re ceived by the 50th of the line, the 3d of the Zouaves— who charged them with the bayonet—and by the 82d, which attacked them in flank, the enemy's columns were compelled to wheel round, recross the canal, and could only escape the fire of our artillery by rallying at a great distance off. This division did not make its appearance again for the day. At the centre, the struggle was longer and more des perate. The enemy had brought up two divisions (the 12th, supported by the sth) against the Traktir-bridge. Several of his columns pushed on at once across the bridge, and also across passages contrived on the spot by means of ladders, flying bridges, and posts ; those columns crossed the Tchernaya, then the aqueduct, and lastly advanced most gallantly against our positions, but, met by an offensive movement, under the direction of Generals Faucheux and deFailly, they were overthrown, compelled to recross the bridge occupied by the 95th, and were pursued to the other side by the 2d Regiment of Zouaves, the 97th of the line, and a part of the 19th battalion of the foot chasseurs. However, while the guns were continuing their dis charges on both sides, the Russians re-formed their at tacking columns. The haze bad cleared up, and it was easy to see their movements. The sth division rein forced the 12th that had just given way, and the 17th was preparing to descend the heights of Choulion for the purpose of supporting those two first divisions. General Herbillon then reinforced General Faucheutx. with Cler's brigade, and gave the 73a as a r!'s,e,r_v_e this osed General de Failly.
