Lord PANMURE has already seen the propriety of modifying the intended regulations respecting the increased pay to soldiers in actual service. He has candidly admitted the weight of the ob jections that would naturally be felt by those who were deprived for an indefinite period of the money they had fairly and honourably earned. It would indeed bear too close a resemblance to the condition of convicted criminals to became very Popular with those who felt that their conduct in liko Way merited such a slight, nor would it greatly add to the inducements to those who looked for ward either to promotion or a glorious death in the field of battle. T he great objects that would influence a party ab out to adopt so very serious a step as enlisting will be either to be enabled to help his family, or to tio improve his own present posi t'. Neither of these would be greatly pro- meted bY the original plan of Lord PANMURE ; on th e ~,otr,, i ing,s to ' l 7, t would only aggravate his feel think that there was a fund nominally to his credit, - whi c h the exi genc i es would amply suffice to relieve of those near and dear to him, or by , means wher eo f be could obtain many additional comforts for hi mse l f, vexatious whi c h, i n consequence o f ve injudicious and a available, It he was pre vented from makin g It would be addin g the tortures of "Tant a l us ), . oirernietation, mahout any to his other and produce the utmost annoyances, equivalent advantage. fpu.lalnysibeloen.er pri rally speaking, vato soldiers are not very fallacies of point, notwithstanding the Pr l "ident On t h at the Secretary for War, we in the opinion of Lord ELLENEOROUGH, an d few indeed are the number of those, face to face with the and daily risking their lives, enemy,who Would greatly value the nominal credit in the Savings' Bank—save as a means of obtaining atempo. rary advance —by way of sale or mortgage from some accommodating Jew or sympathising settler, who might give a glass of grog for the re version of a month's extra pay. We know what sacrifices have been made by sailors, of prospective advantages in the way of prize money, &e.; and 1141 Y should we suppose that soldiers, more espe ciallY those worn out by the fatigues and priva tions of a campaign, should be more prudent than the metabers of the sister serv ice ? 14. r P A RE has therefore acted wisel y a nd honourabl y in %t ' p romp tly and courageou sl y con fessing his mistake and sur rendering his Own views to th e _ sounder competent to forma opinions of others m ore matter been submitt e correct d in the first instance to the House of C o m mons, as to have been, the mistake it ought .....e .., , have been rectified. 13 17° `"Qt unquestionably a ,i„,... ~misters decided on abrogating the functi ons have 0 sen t a tive branch of th e L e • ' the repre gislature, allowing them the barren privilege of ormerely formal assent to a matter carried into cet4 i o 2 a operation before their opinions w e Dra etieal re asked, and thus reducing them to a condition analogoti to • that of a Dean and Chapter, who are authorised t o elect a Bishop, but bound under heavy penal _ ties to choose the nominee of the Crown —w e tr a y be thankful that we have found a Minister n o t wedded to his own crotchets, but willing to take advice and confess his faults, and adopt the best means to rectify them. But there is still a hankering after his hobby. go does not "go the whole hog" in his submis sion. Be still resorts to half measures. f3ixpenes only of the shilling is to be given to the soldier, who is to be permitted to allot the remaining sixpence to his family, if he think proper so to do, just as the seamen of the Royal Navy are now autho rised to do. But supposing that the men do not wish to fall into this arrangement, which must necessarily be purely voluntary, although encou raged by the country—what then ? Why, as Lord PAYSTURE considers that paying it into the hands of the soldiers would be injurious to the discipline of the army, he proposes that it shall be "in the power of the commanding officer, under certain circumstances, in case of in subordination for instance, to step it, and when so stopped that it shall be invested in the savings bank for the man's benefit at a future time." There is here a hiatus valde deflendus. What is to be done with the 6d. when neither allotted nor stopped ? The soldier is to get but 6d. under the name of field money. He may allot the remainder ; but if he does not, it may be withheld as a punishment. But Lord PANIIIIRE does not condescend to enlighten us as to what he will do with it in the event of its not being stopped. The men are not to get it ! The savings bank is to be the penal institution only resorted to in case of insubordination ! What is the inter mediate condition ? On that point we must await further information. It, however, seems to us, that the attaching the idea of disgrace and punish ment to investments in the Savings' Banks is not acting fairly to those excellent establishments, or calculated to advance them in the estimation of the parties from whom investments are sought. On these points ewe think Lord PANMITRE will see the necessity of again modifying his proposals— and we assure him that ho will not injure his character by so doing, for candid confession is next best to not committing a7;fault ; and a man never lowers himself in the opinion of honourable men by recognising and retrieving a mistake. The manner in which Mr. ROEBUCK'S question, and the presentation of petitions by Mr. DUN COMBE respecting the police atrocities in Hyde park were met, was quite worthy of the oligarchic clique into whose hands the government of the country has fallen, being at once ridiculously ar rogant, unprincipled, and shabby. Mr. ROEBUCK, it will be seen—having stated to the House the substance of a letter from a person in Oxford-street, who, it would appear, being anxious on the preceding Sunday to ascertain the news about the War, had gone into a news-shop in that street which was entered by an inspector of police and policemen, one of whom, on some words ensuing, had struck him in the arm and nearly broken it—inquired whether the Right Hon. Gentleman at the Home-office intended instituting any inquiry into the case, and into the conduct of the police generally ? A plain question, de manding a plain answer. But no—the Right Hon. Baronet of the tribe of the GREYS was not prepared to assume that the Commissioners of Police had in this case done otherwise than their duty—shall we say as the conceited Tenth of April in cambric had instructed them ? Of course he was not prepared ;of course he was ignorant of the case, and indisp)sed to stir in it. Being what he is it was hardly unbe coming in him,' though most unbecoming in one holding his place, under the circumstances, to state that "if the facts were true the policemen were as amenable as any other persons to the magistracy." A reply like this, however, was not by any means so clear as the Honourable Member had a right to expect. The consequence was Mr. PHMLIMORE pressed the question, and demanded an answer. This was provoking. Sir GEORGE GREY got ruffled, and having flippantly remarked that he was not aware of the necessity for so doing, said if the writer of the letter which Mr. ROEBUCK had quoted "had first addressed him, the matter might have been, inquired into," leaving the impression that now it would not ! Aby no means direct, but very notable answer. ISo it has come to this. Administrative Reformers —look to it. A sworn Secretary of State, in a case where the very life of a British citizen was bru tally perilled by a subordinate protector of the peace, refrains from inquiry into the affair, on his own admission, because the injured party had not addressed him, but the House of Commons, in the first instance ! Why, this is arrogance, and some thing more, with a vengeance ! The culpability of the Hon. Baronet, and also of the Government, will more clearly appear from what followed. The well-known Liberal Member for Finsbury, Mr. DUNCOMBE, had petitions to present from persons praying for immediate redress against the police ; and the substance of their complaints ho thought it his duty, following Mr. ROEBUCK'S example, to read. But, though singly formidable, he was not so dangerous to meddle with as Mr. ROEBUCK. So every obstruction was put in his way ; he was out of order—there was no urgent need for a speedy remedy—the courts of justice were open to all parties ; and—this came from " the comic old gentleman," and was an attempt, as will be seen, to pass a joke for an argument—" Did his friends desire to refer the petitions to a select i committee imply that there was an immediate ne cessity ?" Undeterred, however, by clamour or joke, Mr. DUNCOMBE persisted, and, having read the allegations of the petitioners with regard to the conduct of the police on Sunday, advanced a number of reasons of the greatest cogency why an inquiry into that conduct should be instituted. The working classes, lie justly remarked, were greatly exasperated by it, and would not rest satisfied by the matter being hushed up. It was not enough to have withdrawn the Sunday Trad ing Bill ; something more must be done ; and he was told that these persons were determined to go to th e P ark next Sunday ; and, if molested, would go armed the next time ; and then who Woul d saj - that there would not be loss of life ? He hoped they would be told what Government intended to do . At all events, he had done his e duty viden in ce he belie ve d bringing il couldm att e b r 3 before produced the insupport House; everything he h ad stated,. metropolis d The peace and s a f e ty on the manner i n of life and p roperty in the ependel which t he question was dealt with. To a plea who hamtesthifsal impressive as were contained in • a so urgent was the nature of the reply'? ,-. the pious Sir GEORGE, loves the people, "denied these speech,seh ood warning so • Sir GEORGE GREY, as ho and general allecr a . by a tittle o f ev i_ statements, and on the part of the police"—fit advoe a t A ce -- pro tested against such sweeping tions, unsupported , as they were dove," concluding by an intimation that while a ny measuref conciliation like Mr. Durreounes o w ould meet with opposition from Gov ernment, extreme measures would he taken for the preser vation of peace. Such is the consideration o f and the tranquillity of (lovernra en t for human life , the metropolis--suchasserti °lla of Si r G EOR GE--as Mr. ROEBUCK at also the gratuitously false once Bhp , . i and sweeping . be said, ~ general stated that the charges were ''''ci• "The Right flonourablo Baronet," butcharges which he (Mr. Itoß Etrielt ) specific had brought forward were surely the enough, for he a 4 -. and name. He had charged an T' en time, place, insPector of police, who had no number or letter on hi a coat, and who, there- THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 6, 1855 fore, did not come within the category stated by the Right Hon. Gentleman. He had described a disturbance created by an inspector of police, he had stated the name of the street ; the time, last Sunday ; the hour, ten o'clock at night ; and the name of the man who was struck. Well, what more could he dot He asked the Right Hon. Gentleman to assist that poor man—poor, because he had been so shame fully used—to enable him to bring to justice that person who, under the guise of authority, had done that unauthorised act. He did not make general charges and accusations against the police, but he must accuse Noble Lords and Right Hon. Gentlemen who brought into that House measures which were only the offsprings of their own bigotry, without consideration for the good govern ment of the country or the happiness of the people." This was enough to cause the elastic Baronet to limit his remarks to the cases adduced by Mr. Dux- COMBE. Mr. ROEBUCK'S statement was now per fectly specific, and he would request that gentleman to send him a copy of the statement in writing, and he would immediatelyorder an investigation ! Why did not Mr. ROEBUCK present the petitions also ? Thus it will be seen that Government, after com mitting at best a miserable blunder in relation to the Sunday Bill—after having let the police loose on the people—after having powerfully aided in lowering the dignity of the House of Commons, and after having, more or less, directly been the cause of the peace being broken, and men, women, and children bludgeoned and cruelly injured, and after being warned that some inquiry was necessary, and that, with ou t it, th e peace and safety of the Metropolis would be en dangered, he met Hon. Members preferring the people's complaints with arrogance, the complaints with denial, the requests for redress with disrepu table caprice, and the warning with a cold-blooded threat, only at last conceding a solitary inquiry out of a number of cases equally supported by facts, as Mr. DUNCOMBE subsequently showed— when the temper of the House warned their leader that Sir GEORGE was going too far. All this surely conveys a useful lesson, and that is, the people are very badly governed that are go verned by an aristocratic clique, and, if they would do well and live in peace and safety, must have an uncompromising reform.

The Bath, Chronicle records the death in that city of the Marquis of 'Dimond. His lordship had in early life seen much active service in the navy, and had at tained to the rank of admiral, but for the last thirty years he has lived retired in Bath. His lordship has left no issue, and the Marquisate will become extinct, but the Barony of Inchiguin will descend to a distant relative. THE WAR WITH RUSSIA.—An interesting lecture on the absorbing topic of the day was delivered yesterday afternoon by Mr. J. E. Gibson, author of " Memoirs of the Brave." The fashionable auditory appeared highly to appreciate the eloquent narration of the lecturer, which was enhanced by the occasional performance of the splendid band of the Grenadier Guards. The only fault we had to find with Mr. Gibson on this his first appearance as a lecturer in the metropolis, was such a rapidity of utterance as frequently impaired the effect that his admirable language would otherwise have pro duced, and amounted occasionally to indistinctness. Let him but amend this, and on future occasions he will insure the success he amply merits. Loss OF THREE LIVES AT KEW.—Yesterday Mr Carter held an inquest at the Rose and Crown, Kew, on the bodies of Jane Milbrow, aged 21, George Turner, aged 24, and Agnes Yagelman, aged 7 months. It ar peared that the three deceased were in a pleasure boat on the river Thames on Sunday afternoon last, accom panied by Mr. and Mrs. Yagelman. They were return. ing from Brentford, and when near Kew, while they were crossing the liver, the young woman Milbrow stood up, and the boat directly afterwards turned over. Mr. and Mrs. Yagelman were rescued, but the others were drowned. Turner, who was a very sober and in dustrious man, was to have been married to Jane Milbrow next Sunday. The coroner said it was a most distressing case • and he was sorry to say that such cases were mainly attributable to the small and frail boats which were let out, often to inexperienced per sons. Verdict—" Accidentally drowned." ASYLUM FOR FEMALE ORPHANS, WESTMINSTER•ROAD. Yesterday a special court of the guardians of this charity was held at the asylum, Westrainster-road ; Hyde Wil liams, Esq., presiding. The report stated that the state of the funds obliged the committee to urge upon every subscriber and the public to interest themselves in order to obtain an increase to meet the expenditure arising out of the larger number of children admitted, and other unavoidable causes. The loss by the failure of Messrs. Strahan and Co. was not very great, the greater portion of the funds having been previously removed.

PARIS, THURSDAY EVENING. A letter from Eaux Bonnes, in the Memorial des Pyrenees, states that the Empress is deriving great benefit from her stay in the south of France. Her Majesty drinks the waters at Eaux Bonnes, and bathes in those at Eaux °halides, and spends a considerable time each day in the open air. The Moniteur contains imperial decrees, con firming the nomination of eight knights in the Legion of Honour, and the grant of 12 military medals, made by the General-in-Chief of the army of the East. The decree ordering the addition of two squad rons to each of the four regiments of the Chasseurs d'Afrique has been signed by the Emperor. It is stated here, and believed, that instead of adopting the slow approach of sap and mine, as was generally believed just after the 18th ult., the allied generals have determined to deliver, and that speedily, a general assault on the works. The German telegraph brings word of an expedition to Odessa, but it is not likely that the generals of the allied armies will reduce their force before Sebasto pol at this juncture. Large reinforcements are leaving France, preceded by a considerable number of officers of high rank, to take the places of those who have fallen in the recent engagements. M. Hubner has asked for explanations of the passages in the Emperor's speech relative to Aus tria. The nature of the answer he received may be inferred from a prefatory note in the Moniteur to a translation of an article from the Vienna Ost. Deutsche Post of Juno 29. " This journal," says the Moniteur, " is the non-official but very faith ful organ of the presiding mind of the Cabinet of Vienna. We reproduce its article without com ment." The article in question dwells upon the golden character of the four points, to which the French Government has already signified that it is no longer bound, and seeks to excuse the inaction of Austria by saying that it is for the " interest of France and England to have an ally in reserve." What the French Emperor thinks of the value of this reserved alliance is shown by his speech, which pointedly and bitterly refers to the promised aid of Austria being now due and yet withheld. We read in the Constitutionnel :—" The terms, which aro now known, of the bill having for object to authorise the levy of 1855, puts an end to all the rumours which have been in circulation relative to calling out an additional body of men. The only thing intended is to vote at the present time the contingent of 1855, which will not be called out until 1856. This is what was done for many years, and what also took place three years ago. The contingent was voted in advance just as the budget for the following year, but neither men nor money is thereby asked for beforehand. What the Go vernment now wishes to obtain, is, a return to what was long practised, and the power of dis posing at the commencement of 1856, but not be fore of the contingent of 1855. There is nothing to prove that it will call out the whole of the force named ; that will depend on circumstances. But as the Legislative Body will not re-assemble until the commencement of 1856, the Government could not wait until that time ; as it is not suf ficient for the contingent to be simply voted, but the drawing, the revision, and the calling out must also take place. The youth of France, besides, do not fear to be called to arms, as may be seen by the table of voluntary engagements annexed to the law. These engagements which only amounted to 8,600 in 1853, were nearly 20,000 in 1854." BOURSE, JULY S.—CLOSING PRICES. Cash. fr. c.

HAMBURG, July 3.—The Amphion, Captain A. Cooper Key, in reconnoitring the newly erected works at Sweaborg, unfortunately got aground within range of the enemy's guns, which opened fire on the frigate. Four balls hit the vessel, killing one man and wounding two, but the Am phion returned the fire with such effect that she blew up a powder magazine, the explosion of which seriously damaged some of the works also. In the harbour were lying five Russian steamers, which, however, did not come out to take part in the affair, from which it is concluded they were afraid of run ning against their own exploding machines. The Amphion got off very soon, and without any damage. The Finland papers contain detailed accounts of the different attempts made by the English ships to land at different parts on the coast. Thus ac counts from Kotka state that, on the 14th ult they burned and destroyed Fort Slava, and letters from \Vyborg say that on the 10th ult. a landing was effected at Trangsound, and forced the rifle men stationed there to retreat into the interior. On the 14th Juno two frigates and a gun-boat ar rived off Svensk Sound and set firo to the build ings. On the following night they managed to en ter the inner roadstead of Frederiksham , in s p ite of a very difficult navigation, and approached to within four versts (half a mile) of the town, which was occupied by a iitrong cletd e cluilwat -of imps. On the following day the gun-boat advanced to within half a verst of the town, and demanded from the burgomaster information respecting the strength of the garrison, and to point out the Go vernment buildings, stores, &c. On receiving a refusal he threatened to bombard the town, but they retired on the 16th without fulfilling the threat. Great astonishment was expressed by the natives at the masterly manner in which the ships were manoeuvred, and which proved that they had skilful pilots on board, intimately acquainted with the intricacies of th )..-lavigation. RUSSIA. THE HANGO MASSACRE. The Journal de St. Petersbourg publishes the fol lowing reply from . General de Berg to the letter sent to him by Admiral Dundas, demanding explana tions for firing on the flag of truce : "HELSINGFORS, JUNE 5 (17th.) "Monsieur l'Admiral,—Before replying to the letter of your Excellency, of the 3d (15th) of June, I must ob serve with regret that the vessels of the English fleet hoist Russian colours the more easily to capture any Rus sian vessel they come across. The journals have suffi ciently made known how, from the commencement of the war, abuse has been made of the flag of truce in every sea to take soundings and to make military obser vations. The character of hostility displayed against inoffensive towns and villages inhabited by peaceful populations has been bull too well proved by all that has taken place in the Baltic. " On the 14th (26th of May) a cutter, Ido not know from which ship, landed with a little white flag near the village of Twerminne. Not finding any troops stationed near the village, the crew of the cutter wantonly set fire to some huts and boats, despite the white flag. "On the 26th of May (sth of June), another cutter belonging to the corvette Cossack made for the Ilango coast. This boat had the British flag flying. The offi cer in command of her pretends to have hoisted a little white flag in her prow on a stick. Neither the men on duty at the telegraph on the neighbouring heights nor the military post on the coast perceived this pretended white flag. It was, consequently, quite natural that they attacked the cutter and its crew as soon as the latter landed. " Lieutenant Louis Geneste pretends that a servant carried by his side a stick with a white flag on it. The soldiers and officers of our advanced posts, questioned as to the existence of this flag, affirm that they never saw it all. " M. Geneste pretends that he was sent with a flag of truce to give up some of the crew of merchantmen cap- tured during the fortnight. If such had been his in tention it would have been a much simpler plan, as the Cossacks came from the neighbourhood of Cronstadt, to have sent them to Sweaborg, or to have landed them on some island, from which they would easily have reached the coast. " The Captain of the Cossack ought to know that the bearer of a flag of truce cannot and ought not to be re ceived upon the first landing place, promontory, or rock it may suit him to select. " My outposts see, and will continue to see, in such ' missions only military reconnaissances ; who use simiiar pretexts to make explorations and secure provisions. "The hostile and by no means parliamentary cha racter of this mission is, moreover, proved : " I. By the loaded arms seized. Th - ree muskets show by their exploded caps that the crew of the boat made use of them in the struggle. "2. By the care shown in providing the cutter with 360 cartridges, and a chestiull of incendiary articles, which are actually in our possession. "On the following day the Cossack kept up a heavy fire during an hour against the village of Hango and it 3 peaceful inhabitants, and a few days later, the Ist (13th) of June, the attack was repeated, to set fire to the tele graph and to destroy some houses, instead of going to Sweaborg to demand explanations. "Despite the superiority which steam and screws give to your vessels, they do not cease to hoist the Russian flag to seize our coasting vessels. "In the same manner some yards of, white canvass have evidently been turned to account to take soundings and make explorations. " I am willing to believe, M. l'Amiral, that this is done without your knowledge. Allow me to express the hope that you will in future prohibit the missions of such pretended flags of truce. The crew of Lieutenant Geneste's boat were caught in their own trap. Seven men were killed, four wounded, the remainder male prisoners, as the list I enclose will inform you. The affair only lasted a moment. It was impossible to dis tinguish the English from the prisoner sailors they brought with them. One of them, Lundstrom, who spoke English, was the first man killed, and two others were wounded. " The responsibility of the whole affair rests with the irregularity with which missions of this sort are made. "It appears to me that it would be more suitable to make communications to Sweaborg, and intrust them to some vessel sent there in the same manner as you sent your letter of the 3d (15th) of June. " The Cossack should not have deviated from the rule. Vessels wishing to enter into parley should hoist a white flag of large dimensions, and anchor beyond long range, and await a boat to receive their message in writing. We will never receive any other. The Cossack did nothing of the sort. It seems to me that the honour of your flag ought to exact the most strict and scrupulous observa tions of the rules established on such occasions. " The honour of my flag will never permit me to de part from them. " I can assure you that the wounded are well taken care of, and the prisoners well treated.—l have the honour to be, Monsieur l'Amiral, your very obedient servant, "DE BERG, "Aide-de-Camp General of his Majesty the Emperor of all the Russias." RUSSIAN ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR OF THE 18TH JUNE. The Invalide Busse says " We have just received the following detailed report from Aide-de-Camp-General Prince Gortschakoff of the assault of the French, on the 6th (18th) of June, on Bas tions 1,2, 3, and Kornileff, of the line of defence of Sebastopol, and of their repulse by our troops. "The enemy having resolved to make a decisive at tack on our left flank, opened, on the sth (17th) of June, at 3.30 a.m., a `fire of hell' against the fortifications of the Karabelnaia Faubourg (sections 3 and 4). For two consecutive hours all their batteries fired almost unin- terrupted broadsides. On our side we kept up a quick fire in return. At 2in the afternoon, at a given signal, the besiegers opened a heavy fire against our right flank; the fire, which was now opened along the whole line of our defences, lasted till an advanced hour of the evening. "At dusk and throughout the night the enemy threw shells and rockets into the town, into the roadstead, and the north side. A steam-frigate, which had left the Allied Fleet at the same time, fired broadsides into the roadstead and against the town. The greater ry)r tion of its projectiles fell into the sea without touching our ships. _ _ " This terrible cannonade and incessant bombardment did not prevent the brave defenders of Sebastopol from actively repairing the damage done to the works. Despite a terr:ble front and flank fire, the works were successful iy completed, the guns which had been dismantled replaced by new ones on every point, and on the morning of the 6th (18th) of June we were perfectly prepared to receive and drive back the enemy. "On the night between the s:h and 6th (17th and 18th) of June, to be prepared for an assault, our troops were disposed as follows on the left flank of our line of defence." "Bastion No. 3, and the neighbouring batteries, were defended by the 2d brigade of the 11th division of in fantry, a regiment cf the Briansk Chasseurs, and a batta lion of reserve, consisting of men of the Minsk and Vol hynia regiments. " In the Kornileff Bastion and in the Gervais Battery there was the first brigade of the Bth infantry division and the Sevsk Regiment of Infantry. " In Bastion No. 2, the Vladimir Regiment of Infan try and the Ist battalion of the Souzdal Regiment ; ano ther battalion of the same regiment was drawn up along, the curtain between Bastion Kornileff and Bastion No. 2. Bastion No. 1 was occupied by the Chasseur regi ments Krementehoug and Prince of Warsaw. " The general reserve of troops who defend-id the works of the Karabelnaia faubourg consisted of the let brigade of the 11th division of infantry, with 18 pieces of field artillery of the 11th and 17th brigades. "On the 6th (18th) of June, at daybreak, the enemy in a dense chain, supported by strong reserves, attacked simultaneously bastion No. 1, the fortified barracks be tween bastions 1 and 2, bastion No. 2, the Korniliff bastion, bastion No. 3, and the so-called Gribok work situate on the right of the P6ressyp ; the enemy enter tained the hope of forcing a passage somewhere along this long line of defence. "The number of troops they brought to the assault was 35,000 men, without counting their distant reserves. The French advanced on the right flank and centre, the English on the left. " The besiegers provided with ladders, fascines, and sapper tools, advanced rapidly to the attack. Despite the heavy fire of grape and musketry we poured into them, their columns advanced, reached our ditches, and commenced scaling the parapets. " But the line of the intrepid defenders of Sebastopol never swerved. They received the daring assailants with the points of their bayonets, and threw then' back into the ditches. The enemy's columns then threw them selves on the Gervais Battery, entered it, drove out the battalion of infantry in charge of it, and, following in pursuit, occupied the houses nearest the Karabelnaia faubourg from the Malakhoff Mamelon to the bay of the docks. "The success of our adversaries was not of long dura tion. Lieut.-General Chrouleff, the vigilant chief of the line of defence of the Karabelnaia faubourg, ordered up a reserve of 600 riflemen to the curtain between Bastions 2 and Kornileff. When the enemy had passed through our line near the Gervais Battery, Lieutenant-Gen era l himself at the head of a comp any o f Regiment of infantry, which was re,turnierr the Chrouleff, Sevsk placing from a cosrCe, and taking with him a battalion of the Poltavva. Regiment, led them to the charge. "These troops, reinforced in good time by five com panies of the Yakoutsk Regiment, and later by a batta lion of the Yelets Regiment, routed the French, and having driven them out of the Gerv a i s Battery, pursued them into their own trenches, p u tti ng the stragglers in the rear to the bayonet. Tho company of the Sevsk * "For more clearness it is indispensable to say that the spac3 between which the attack of the besiegers was made has an extent of about four werstes from Careening Bay to that of the Laboratory, and forms a convex curve. Bas tion No. 3 is detached from the bay of the Docks and I nileff, on the r i g h t shore of which, co nnected with this ion, is th e G ervais Battery th e fire of which coin e bay AO SW=d Pt/ thc • pf )3aidifm No, 32!
