the position commanded that of the hill on which the Second Division were encamped—were of very largo calibre. They threw their shells thickly among the tents of this division, and notwithstanding they were struck at an early hour of the day, they have been literally riddled with the fragments of the shells which burst among them. h the early part of the morning, as column after column advanced from the direction of the town, the Lancaster gun, the only one which remained in the 5-gun battery, was brought to bear upon them, and did great execution. The Russians made a very determined assault to secure this piece, but were repulsed. Some of our troops, in turn advancing, drove the gunners away, and had actually taken possession of four of the enemy's brass field guns which they had advanced, but a large body rose which had been previously concealed among the brushwood, and com pelled them by their fire to relinquish their possession. At one time the Second Division, having advanced toe far to the right, were in a very groat hazard of being cut off, and were in a great measure saved by the rapid ad vance of a large body of Z)uaves and other French troops, which, coming rapidly upon the Russians still more to the right, prevented them from making a further attack against our troops on their flank. In the early part of the day—indeed, almost simulta neous with the commencement of the grand attack on the right—cannonading was heard in the direction of Balak lava. It soon became evident that no very serious advance was intended in this direction, and that part of the troops previously lying in the plain had been withdrawn during the night to assist in the execution of the principal object of the engagement, carried on by the force against our right. The attack on the left was of a more determined character, and was made by several columns of Russian infantry, supported by artillery. The French went out to meet them, and though they received them with a heavy fire of musketry, two hours elapsed before they were finally driven back within their fortifications. Some of the Rus sian columns marched along the sea shore, and had one of our ships been within range much execution might have been done among them. It will be impossible until the returns are collected to estimate tie number of killed and wounded who have fal len this day. It is well known that the list will be a very serious one. Sir George Cathcart, commanding the 4th Division, is among the killed, as is also poor old General Strangways, commanding the Ordnance Department. Ilis fine form, and snow white hair, had long made him conspicuous among his troops ; equally, as he is said to have been, ,for his amiable and estimable qualities among the large circle of his friends and acquaintances. He lost a leg, which was earried away by a round shot, aad died soon afterwards from the effect■ of the injury. General Goldie is also killed. Sir George Brown was wounded in the arm. It was a flesh wound, but he has been lately suffering from general indisposition, and, acting upon the advice of his friends, he has quitted his com mand, and gone for treatment on board the Agamemnon. He was removed on a litter in one of the commissariat carts. Brigadier General Adams is wounded, as is also General Torrens, in command of a brigade of the 4th divi sion. Major-General Bentinck, commanding the brigade of Guards, is also wounded, but, it is reported, not severely. Brigadier-General Buller, commanding the 2d brigade Light Division, received a contused wound in the leg from a mind shot. The ball went through the body of his horse ; it entered its chest, and bruised the general's leg as it passed out of the animal's flank. The official returns will alone enable the names of the many officers of other grades killed and wound in this astion to be known. All the Regiments of the 2d Divi ken have suffered severely, and the Coldstream regiment, particularly in the Brigade of Guards. The regiments which happened to have been detached for duty in the trenches alone escaped without considerable loss. General Sir de Lacy Evans, whose gallant defence of the position under his command on the 26th nit. was so favour ably noticed by Lord Raglan in orders, was unfortunately ea invalid, and on board ship at Balaklava. Subsequent to the action alluded to he had a fall from his horse, but he had previously been weakened by suffering from illness. Hearing of the attack he came up to the front, and was present on the field ; but he was too weak to assume command. The less of the Russians must have been immense. Their dead aro lying up to the very doors of the tents of the Second Division, and they aro thickly strewed among the bushes around. The high road leading up to this position from the direction of the Inkerman ♦alley, and which winds along ono of the precipitous sides of a very deep ravine, is covered with their bodies. The wounded are being collected, but numbers will have to lie where they are until daylight shall again afford an opportunity for re moving them. About 600 prisoners are at present under guard, and this number does not include the wounded itaasians who have been taken to the various hospitals. One of the most obvious and serious deficiencies in our arrangements—one which led to the unnecessary loss of many valuable lives— was the absence of any earthworks, a line of entrenchments, to protect the camp of the Second Division. Its position on our extreme right—on the side of the hill, with a gentle slope, and directly connected with the high mountain which descends upon the valley of the Tshernaya river where it falls into the head of the Se bastopolt reedited, is necessarily very much exposed. The Absence of such works can only be attributed to our hay lug underrated the strength of the Russian troops, or to having held a too low estimate of their courage. At oae time our men had to rally in front of their tents to save the camp itself, and the numbers of Russian dead who are now lying within ten yards of the advanced row of them proves how close was the struggle, The rapidity with which the French fortify a post as soon as it is occupied, offers a striking contrast with our neglect of the pre eautien in the present instance. A high road from the Inkerman valley passes up to the camp by one of the ra vine; Across this road was drawn a simple stone breast work, but beyond this the defence appears to have been wholly entrusted to the courage and arms of the troops. The courage has not been wanting; and the position has been retained, but it has been at a fearful sacrifice of life. Another misfortune was that, owing to the continuous damp of the night and day previous to the attack, many of the percussion caps missed fire, and the men wore unable to discharge their muskets. This was found to be the case particularly at the early part of the morning. The french observed, too, that our men in repulsing advanced too far without sufficient support. It is said that the Russian soldiers had been liberally supplied with raki previous to the commencement of the attack. Their continued loud shoutings and the impetu osity of their attack render it probable they wore under the influence of some artificial stimulus of the sort. In the canteens, also, of many of the killed on the field was found a mittare of raki and water. The men who have fallen into our hands, though generally of short stature, are of sturdy frames, with broad chests, and well-developed muscular legs. Their clothing is well-made and warm ; and, though coarse in texture, an amply sufficient protection against the weather. Tho ♦oluminous folds of their great coats, the sleeves of which are doubled back as nearly as far as the elbows, while the skirts descend to the ankles,—throw the " skimp ing" ordnance groat coats issued to our troops completely in the shade as regards comfort and warmth. To prevent the length of the coat inconveniencing the wearer when walking, the skirt all round is made by a very simple con trivance to loop np above the knees. So, also, the coat can be worn loose like a cloak, or drawn in at the waist. The men carry with them mittens of thick black cloth, the four fingers being together in one, the thumb in another division of the glove. Great advantages resulted from the employment of the ambulances in the removal of the wounded during the pro gress of the action. It is to be lamented that ■o few of these ♦ehicles have been sent out—two only to each divi ition—and that the army is not provided with some contri vance similar to the mule ambulances of the French. Oa each side of the mule is an iron frame, which can be either used as a seat or unfolded into a reclining couch, thus else abling two wounded to be carried either in a sitting pas ture or lying at full length. Numbers of these were (Amu ' pied is carrying the wounded to the roar. Their peculiar advantage is that no irregularity of the groin(' prevents their being able to arrive at the spot where the service of an ambulance may be required. The hospital rnarqaees and tents were a great comfort in preventing the exposure which occurred after the action at Alma. I need hardly add that the surgeons have been fully employed all day, and Are likely to continue so for several days to come. CAMP ABOVE SEBASTOPOL , Nov. I have just returned from the field of battle yeste rday The numbers of the dead far exceed the what were to be seen in a like space at Alma. From doo rs . of tie tents of the 2d Division over the hills , on the high road, and along the ravine, down to the very ' below the Inkerman rains, the earth is strewed with dead , w ounded, arms, and ammunition, clothing, and all the de b r is ' of the d the th fight. At the angle of the hill which jut: h on . w here win Inkerman valley opens to the plain along Tchernaya river, was sometime ago constructed a two s . battery. The guns have been removed, but the work g r un mains. Within, and fora wide distance in front and on each side of this battery, the ground is literally, not figuratively, covered with dead and dying. More of the grey colour of the Russian groat coat meets the eye than does that of the hill or law brushwood itself. Here took place one of the fiercest struggles of the day. The Guards, who were occupying this work, were at one time over powered by the Russian force, and compelled to retire ; but after re-forming they returned to the attack, and not only expelled their assailants, but drove them down the sides of the hill with fearful slaughter. The breastwork of the battery was 7 feet high, so that the guards could not fire over the parapet, and no sandbags had been placed to enable them to do so. When the Russians for a short time held it, they seized a few lying about, and made a step, which was afterwards used against themselves. There has evidently been much neglect hero—it seems like infatua tion. The Russians themselves ought never to have been able to have advanced so far as they did, much more to have brought their guns with them. Now, when the evil has happened, the Ottoman troops are being actively employed in throwing a line of entrenchments around the camp ; breastworks are being raised in various positions and the high road, which winds down the side of the 'A nne to the head a the harbour, and up vitioh the Russian troops easily marched, is being broken up and dyked in certain parts. Had it not been for the artillery which the enemy were able to bring up, our loss would have been considerably lessened, and their advance repulsed at a much earlier hour of the day. In all probability the leading troops of the Russians took up thoir position during th 3 fog of the night, and e3ncealed themselves among the bushes which cover the sides of the hills close in front of our advanced picquets. AN ENNISKILLEN DRAGOON IN BATTLE. The following remarkable letter, which we find in the Dorset Chronicle, is from a captain in the Enniskillen Dragoons, a regiment whose olden fame has been bril liantly maintained in the recent cavalry action in the Crimea : CAMP NEAP. BATASLA.TA, Nov. 2, 1854. Dear JacV,—* * * I am, you see, alive at this date, but God knows for how long after. You have, I presume, de voured all the accounts which have been sent home as to our glorious c'iarge. Ok, such a charge Never think of the galop and trot which you have often witnessed in the Phcouix-park when you desire to form a notion of a ge nuine blood hot, all-mad charge, such as that I have come out of—with a few lance probes, minus some gold lace, a helmet chain, and Brown Bill's (the charger's) right oar. From the moment we dashed at the enemy, whose po sition, and so forth, you doubtless know as much about as I can tell you, I knew nothing, but that I was impelled by some irresistible force onward, and by some invisible and imperceptible influence to crush every obstacle which stumbled before my good sword and brave old charger. I never in my life experienced such a sublime sensation as in the moment of the charge. Some fellows talk of it being " demoniac." I know this, that it was such as made me a match for any two ordinary men, and gave me such an amount of glorious indifference as to life, as I thought it impossible to be master of. It would do your Celtic heart good to hear the most magnificent cheer with which we dashed into what P— W--- calls "the gully scrimage." Forward--dash—bang—clank, and there we wore in the midst of such smoke, cheer, and clatter, as ❑ever before stunned a mortal's ear. It was glorious ! Down, oae by one, aye, two by two, fell the thick-skulled and over-nunterous Cossacks and other lads of the tribe of old Nick. Down, too, alas ! fell many a hero with a warm Celtic heart, and more than one fell screamin: loud for victory. I could not pause. It was all push, wheel, phrensy, strike, and down, down, demi they went. Twice I was unhorsed, and more than once I had to grip my sword tighter, the blood of foes streaming down over the hilt, and running up my very sleeve. Our old Waterloo comrades, the Greys, and ourselves, were the only fellows who flung headlong first into the ♦ery heart of the Mus coves. Now we were lost in their ranks—now in little bands battling—now in good order together—now in and now out, until the whole " Levies" on the spot plunged in to a forming body of the enemy and helped us to end the fight by compelling the foe to fly. Never did men run so vehe mently. But all this you have read in the papers. * * I cannot depict my feelings when we returned. I sat down completely exhausted and unable to eat, though deadly hungry. All my uniform, my hands, my very face were bespattered with blood. It was that of the enemy ! Grand idea! But my feelings,—they were full of that exultation which it is impossible to de scribe. At least twelve Russians were sent wholly out of the "way of the war" by my good steel alone, and at least as many more put on the passage to that peaceful exit by the same excellent weapon. So also can others say. Tirhat a thing to reflect on ! I have almost grown a soldier philosopher, and most probably will one of these days, if the bullets which are flying about so abundantly give me time to brush up. My dear fellow, our countrymen have not tarnished their fame in the Crimes. Gallantry and glory will never aban don the march of Celtic) bands—never ! Oh that I could bare patience to write you of such deed' of individual heroism as have come within my notice ! Fictionist' are shabby judges of true bravery. No novel ever had a sham kern who comes up to the realities I kayo witnessed. One of my troop, for instance, had his horse shot under him in the mace. " Bloody wars," he roared, " this won't do," and right at a Russian he ran, pulled him from his horse by the sword hand in the most extraordinary manner— then deliberatelyeutting off his head as ho cams down,vaulted into the saddle, and turning the Russian charger against its late friends, fought his way. This took less time to do than Ito tell it. I saw another of our fellows unhersed, and wounded, creep under a Russian charger, and ran the sword up his belly. The animal plunged and fell on his slayer, crushing him to pieces. * * * We must take this doomed place, even as O'Grady says, if we be doomed who take it. Any one of oar fellows is a match for throe Russians. * * " The Light Cavalry charge was a des• pirate, but a grand affair. Lord Raglan is blamed. The general belief is that Nolan gave his order literally. Lucan is a regular fire-ball, but not mad enough to have done that without strict commands. a * " % want reinforcements very badly ; without them we cannot con tinue to contend against fearful odds. SEBASTOPOL CAMP, Oct. 23, 1854. My dear Father,—You must excuse me for not send ing you word about the fight we had with the Russians at the Alma heights, for I could not get any paper; for we have been on tho march and in camp ever since I wrote to you last, and I could get no such thing as paper or ink. Bat to describe to you any particulars about the fight I cannot, only that the men fell dead about me jest like knocking calebones (skittles) down, but we had fine sport with our cannons. We shot the Russians like shooting flocks of sparrows, and we made them run in three hours and 20 minutes. We have been fighting now seven days, and they stand hard to us yet ; but to-night, I believe, we shall come to closer quarters. Should it be so, then, if Old Nick is in Sebastopol ho will get his ribs drummed properly ; and I can tell yon that I have had the pleasure of drum ming a few of his subjects at Alma heights; but no doubt you hear and seo more in the papers than I can tell you about these affairs except I was at horns, and then I could tell you all about it. Ido not think, however, should it please God to spare me, I shall be at home these next two years; but I do feel thankful to God that he, in his mercy, has spared me thus far, and I hope and trust Ile will do so all through the campaign. To tell you the truth, however, I do not care how soon it is over, for we get no rest either night or day ; for in the day we are hard fight ing, and in the night repairing the work.—Dear father, you must excuse me not sending you more, but I have not time, for this I have written in the field on my knee, and have had to beg both paper and ink. However, I hope this will find you and all the family in good health, as this leaves me at present ; but I cannot tell the minute I may get popped off, but I have run clear so far, and I hope, with the help of God, I shall do so endways. Dear father, do not fail to give my love and respects to all my old friends and companions, but more especially to Jim i'th' Well, or James Greenhalgh, and tell him that a beefsteak dumpling would be very acceptable hero in the camp ; but my time is up, and I am again called to my duty in order to give the Russians a few more of Old Parr's pins before dinner.—Farewell. Yours affectionately, JOLIN BROOKS, Gunner and Driver, Royal Artillery, No. 3 Company, 11th Battalion. BURIAL OF GENERAL STRANGWAYS. BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, Nov. 6 —ln front of the camp of the Fourth Division there is a square plot of ground, enclosed by a low stone wall. It is the highest point on the hill, and, from the general appearance of the enclosure, it gives the impression of having at some time been used as a fort. From this site the spectator, on one side, leeks down upon Sebastopol and its fortifications, its harbours, its ships, aid the sea far beyond. On the other side the magnificent amphitheatre formed by the Yaila mountains is exposed to view—the lofty and rugged Chadir Dagh crowning the scene in the distance. Shortly before the hour of sunset this afternoon, when the sun, which had been bright all the morning, had retired behind a thick canopy of grey threatening cleuds—just as a cold cheerless breeze was springing up, and came, as if complainingly, through the long lines of tents—and when a veil of mist and smoke, every minute becoming more obscure, was drawn over the town below—there advanced slowly and silently up the side of the bill a troop of Royal Horse Artillery, with a solitary gun-carriage. On the gun-carriage rested a rough plank coffin, enclosing the mortal part of a good old soldier, General Fez Strangways. There was neither knell nor band, no femoral pall, no decoration, no attempt to cloak over the rough work of death. The dull distant boom of cannon, as gun replied to gun in the contending batteries, was the only music which accompanied the war rior to his last resting-place. The troops of a whole divi sion under arms gazed at the sad precession as it slowly passed their front in solemn silence. They too had lost their' trader; On the crest of this Russian hill, in the centre of this low-walled detached plot of earth, lies the corpse of another soldier well known to fame, Sir George Cathcart. Yet a . little while, and by his side will be placed his brother in arms of yesterday ; and then, amid prayers and tears, both will be consigned to the common earth. The retiring groups, anion whom are some of England's bravest and noblest sons, as they pass away with bowed heads and strickened hearts, hope and believe that while the ashes of these warriors rest here their glory will live in many a heart far away ; and while they think sadly on those whom death has struck down, they knew that there still remain others who will endeavour to achieve the glorious task entrusted to them by their country. THE FRENCH ARRANGEMENTS FOR SUC COURING THE WOUNDED AT THE BATTLE OF INKERATAN. The French commissary of stores serving with the army in the Crimea makes to the Minister of War the fol lowing account of tke measures adopted for succouring the wounded during the battle of Inkerman, and of the state of the ambulances at the date of November 7. Monsieur le Marochal,—The French army has just given another proof of its immense superiority over that of Russia. It is not for me to speak of the combats that took place on the sth at Inkerman and at the very site of the siege ; but I have to render an account to you of the administrative measures taken during this conjuncture. At the commencement of the mum I out a reinforce- THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 24, 1854. mont of mules, seats, litters, and stretchers to the Second Division, the only one that had any of its troops engaged. Later, and as the combat grew more serious on this side, and when it began in the trenches, I sent in succession to the ♦arious spots whatever conveyances I could. They were sufficient, for all our wounded were removed and placed in the ambulances before night. The removal of the wounded was superintended at the trenches by the Deputy Military Inspector, M. de Seganville, and by Messrs. Le Crettrer, Boucher, and Pironnes.o on the bat tle-field of Inkerman; this painful mission was piously fulfilled ea a ground incessantly ploughed sip by balls. I had equal cause to praise the good services of Messrs. de la Broye, the officer in charge of the ambulance belonging to head-quarters, and Juving, in charge of that of the Second Division. There were 280 French and a few Russians conveyed by the ambulance of the trenches to that of the head-quarters. About 100 other Russians, wounded at the siege works, were sent to the ambulance of the 4th division ; lastly, that of the 2.1 division received 317 French and a few Eng lish wounded at Inkerman. All have been treated as their oases required. I also owe a just tribute of praise to the orderlies of the baggage train and to the hospital orderlies ; as ever, they have done their duty with remarkable devotion and self denial, thoroughly understood by the whole army. The total number of patients in the ambulances amounts to 1,827, of whom 903 are wounded. Tho greater part of the wounded will be saved, but there are some serious esie s. The principal ambulances of the trenches and of the 2d division were attended loy all members of the medical staff that could be spared from other points. During these severe trials our medical officers are admi rable for the devotedness they display. I have folind them •n this occasion what they were at Gallipoli and Varna during the cholera, and at the battle of the Alma—what they have been every day since the siege of Sebastopol commenced. If I had to name all those who have de served testimonials of satisfaction, I should be obliged to send to your Excellency the complete list of the medical men that belong to the ambulances in which the wounded have been received. Permit me oily to mention to yoi the name of M. Serive, the physician in chief, who has di rected in the most satisfactory manner the medical service since our landing in the Crimea, and the names of Messrs. Thomas, Secourgeon, Malapert, chief of the ansbilanoes belonging to the Ist, 2d, and 4th ilivisioss ; also of Marny and Mestres, physicians major on the staff. I am making arrangements for draughting off some pa tients to Constantinople, in order to avoid crowding our ambulances, which after every engagement reeeive, besides our own wounded, a great many wounded Russians. These, to the number of 500 or thereabouts, have been re eeived into our ambulances since the affair of the sth. I ars, with respect, &0., (Signed) BLINCROT. LOSS OF TSB GUARDS.

This morning, shortly before eight o'clock, the Grena dier, Coldstream, nail Fusilier Guards left London by the South-Western Railway for Portsmouth, en route to the Crimea. On arriving at PQrtmoutb from London they will embark from the dockyard jetty in the Sprightly, Fire Queen, Echo, and Comet steamers, wk ich will convey them to the Royal Albert, 121, screw, at Seithead. The Royal Albert will embark 730 officers and men of the several battalions of Guards, as already spa, cified 488 o ffi cers and men of the 77 th Regiment , eight officers of Royal Engineers, and 120 Sappers and Miners, making x total of 1,346 troops. She will leave to-morrow •r Sunday for the Crimea ; and, as she goes at A speed only exceeded by a very few steam-ships afloat, they will doubtless make a quick and very comfortable passage. The excitement caused by the departure of the troops at the railway station ii the Waterloo-road was very great, and during the whole time the troops were in view one continued cheer was kept up. We believe that it has been decided to give to all the infantry regiments is the Crimea two additional lieu tenants and two designs. The following oficers, now with their depots at Wal mer, are ordered to pro cee d f or th w ith with detachments to join their sonic* companies in the Crimea : 19th—Captain M assey , Lieut. Kirke, and Ensi g n Evans. nth—Lieut. Breton and Ensign Ewen. 44th—Ensign Smith aid Ensign Sta Toll, The 3d company Royal Sappers and Miners, com manded by Captain F. W.

Major Crofton ""PanY, 7th battal ion Ro y al Artil lery, were inspect e d at the Ordnance H os pital yesterday, i and placed under orders to hold themselves in readiness to embark for the Crimea. Major Crofton's is the seventh company pl ace d under orders f or the Crimea within the last ten days, and four of these companies are now on their passage for Sebastopol, t w o companies in tie Europa from Liverpool , and two On board the Daunt less from Portsmouth. Seven of the senior engineer officers at Chatham are under orders for the service of their corps, although they have not completed their course of instruction. They are for the seat of war in the East, where officers of this description are touch required. Seven j unio r officers are to j o i n th e engineer esta b l i s h men t at Chat ham on the let o f D ecember next, to go through a course of fieldwork a n d the practical co urse of architecture in struction. Orders were received, on Wednesday morning by the 52d Regiment to held itself in readiness to embark for Corfu on the shortest notice. Various small detaok moots have re t urned to head-quarters at Edinburgh Castle, and the regiment has been vigeronsly beating up for recruits for some days. Eight companies are to pro ceed to the Mediterranean, numbering between 500 and 6 " men. 2t. depot of fo ur companies will be left in Edinburgh Castle. During the preeent week a strong recruiting staff front the head-quarters of the ath Hussars, now sta tioned at Exeter, have taken their departure for Bath where they will be stationed for some time, for the pur pose of enlisting recruits from the central parts of So merset. When this regiment arrived in England a short time since from India, after 15 years' service, they were rather above their regular strength, but 63 have - volunteered into ether regiments about to embark for the Crimea, and 20 others were invalided on arriving at Chatham. For the last few days the barraok-serjeant and his assistants have been busily engaged in collecting together all the spare blankets from the Exeter and Top sham barracks, and these, it is understood, will be at once forwarded to the British camp in the Crimea. Yesterday nearly 170 young and athletic men, who had arrived in the metropolis on 'Wednesday from the northern and midland counties, were paraded, and in spected by the medical and principal officers of the re• cruiting department, in Delahay-streetl Westminster, and, with few exceptions, having been finally approved, were forwarded to the depots of the respective regi' limits for which they enlisted. The greater portion are for regiments serving in the expeditionary army, and the remainder for regiments in India and the colonies. The household troops receive daily augmen tation to their numbers, and recruiting for the cavalry progresses favourably. A large number of reel-nits from the various recruiting districts arrived at the recruiting depot, Delahay-street, and, in addition to those enlisted in the metropolis, will be inspected this day, when those who aro approved will be forwarded to their re spective regiments. Since the recent order of the Board of Admiralty, the officers of the various naval rendez vous have been indefatigable in their exertions to obtain volunteers, many of whom arrive daily by railway from Liverpool, Bristol, and other eutperts, and are placed on beard the Crocodile receiving ship off the Tower, from which they are drafted as opportunity serves to their respective ships. Besides the Shropshire regiment already announced, the following militia regiments have been called out for permaaent service—The Dorsetshire, 4th Lancashire, Nottinghamshire, Worcestershire, and Ist Cheshire. In addition to these corps, one infantry battalion and three artillery battalions will be also immediately embodied for garrison duty. Great activity exists in the sraall:arra department of Ordnance at the Tower of London; several hundreds extra gunsmiths have been taken on for the nianufaeture of rifles, muskets, &c. Yesterday afternoon a quantity of stores of every de scription, warm clothing, &c., were forwarded from the Tower to Woolwich to be put on board the steam trans ports Holyrood and Manilla, for conveyance to the East; as also quantities of canteens andother necessaries required by troops on field service, which were for warded to Portsmouth for the use of the detachments to embark there this day. The Norman and John Bowes, screw steamers, about 500 tons burden each, belonging to Southampton, have been taken up by the Government to convey out stores to the Black Sea. About 2,000 tons of stores for the Crimea are to be despatched from Southampton. Some of these stores will consist of the wooden houses intended for winter quarters for the British army in the Crimea. It must be gratifying to the public to learn that two waggons, each containing twelve miles of telegraphic wire covered with gotta percha, and with ploughs and the necessary arrangements for laying down the wires, were put on board the Prince screw steam transport skip, at the Royal Arsenal, previous to her proceeding to Greenhithe to embark the 46th Regiment, and there can be no doubt the valuable invention is now in full operation to prevent surprises, . or to be made available for concentrating the British and French troops in any required locality to check the Russian forces in any future attacks on the position of the Allies. Owing to a report received from Lord Raglan, Master- General of the Ordnance, complaining that the toots which have been sent out to the East for the use of the Sappers and Miners have been found unfit for the pur poses required, Major Ord, R.E., with a selected num ber of nen-commissioned officers of the Royal Sappers, has been to the Tower of London and had an interview with Mr. Stacey, the principal storekeeper. They examined all the engineer field equipments in store, and they are to report on their state. Major Ord has orders to suggest any improvement he and his non-commis sioned officers may think necessary. It is expected that a large number of new tools will have to be made upon a plan to be submitted. THE FRENCH REINFORCEMENTS. " The following corps left the camp of the south be tween the 12th an 18th to joie the army of the East : "The 10th Light Infantry. " The 17th battalion of the Chasseurs do 'Vincennes.

"The troops which traversed our city during the last few days are—on the 16th, the staff and the 2d battalion of the 10th Regiment of Light Infantry, consisting of 28 officers and 620 non-commissioned officers and sol diers, en route for Toulon ; on the same day, the Bth Battery of the Bth Regiment of Artillery-3 officers, 198 men, and 190 horses, proceeding from Nismes to Marseilles, the port of embarkation ; on the 18tio, the staff and Ist battalion of the 57th Regiment of the line —3O officers and 774 men, corning from the camp of the south, and going to embark at Toulon ; and en the same day, the 7th Battery of the Bth Regiment of Artillery, on its way from Toulouse to Toulon-3 officers, 227 men, and 227 horses."—Memorial d'Aix of the 19th. The Marocain steam-packet arrived at Marseilles on Atenday night, having sailed from Constantinople en the eioning of the 11th. She, however, brought no later news than that received by the Tilimaque. The Stilly, which was oxpeoted from Balaklaya, had not arrived when the Marocain left. The Byzantine reached Con stantinople on the 10th, with French troops and ammu nition on board. The Trident and Hercule ships of the line have landed their lower guns, and are to be fitted out as transports. They are at present taking in stores, and will call at Toulon to embark reinforcements for the Crimea. The Aigle steam-aviso left this port on the 16th for Toulon. The Laplace steam-corvette will shortly sail for Toulon, and take in tow the Trident. Extraordinary activity prevails in our dockyards. The Devastation floating battery and two large strew transports are being constructed with all possible despatch. The ar mament of the frigates Ponrsuivante and Virginie, and the brig Beaumanoir, is proceeding rapidly. The Arcele screw-ship, of 90 guns and 000-horse power, is to be launched on the 22d of next month.—Phxre de Cher bourg of the 19th. Abbe Gloriot, chaplain to the army of the East, who accompanied tLo remains of Marshal St. Arnaud to France, has left Lyons for the Crimea. Government has given orders for the construction, at Nantes, of four gun-boats, which are to carry artillery of very powerful calibre with a very light draught t 1 water. They are to be placed ininiediately on the clocks. The engines for those gun-boats have been ordered from M. Gouin, of Paris. Ten carriages co a new plan, being the inscription "Ambulance de l' Armee," were exhibited to-day at the Havre railway terminus. They are of a light build, perfectly hung, with four wheels. Ox the front seat there is room for three wounded, and in the interior two beds, which may be used as litters to remove the sick and wounded. They contain several lockers for the bag gage and arms, which are very often thrown away or lost. Those carriages are to be sent to Cherbourg, to be embarked on board two vessels about to sail fur the Black Sea. NAFAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Royal Albert, 121, Captain Sir Thomas Pas ley, had Ler crew completed to working complement by a heavy draught from the Prince Regent at Ports mouth yesterday, and the crew received advanced wages. Orion, 91, screw, is still under the sheers at Sheer ness. Her boilers are not on board yet ; every possible despatch is being used, and many mechanics are em ployed working at her, together with those holenging to leha Penn and Cu., the rankers of the hollers, Ito., two of which are now alongside ready to hoist in. The }lslam', 17, screw ■team-sloop, Captain Arthst Farquhar, having heen fitted at Deptford with a poop dock for the accommodation of troops, was brought dew' to Woolwich en Wednesday, and taken into the inner dock to have her screw propeller adjusted, when she will be ready for sea. The screw corvette Cossack, 21, Captain Fanshawe, is at her moorings in Hamoazo, taking in coal. Not withstanding her extensive repairs in Devoiport dock yard, she is said to be still ♦ery leaky. The Brisk, 14, Commander Curtis, steamed out of Portsmouth harbour to Spithead yesterday morning, and shipped her powder, etc., ready for sailing orders. The Salamander, 6, paddle-sloop, Commander Priest, was pot out of commission yesterday, at Portsmouth, and her crew granted leave. The steam tender Avon, from Portsmouth, arrived in Plymouth on Tuesday. The steam-tug Pike having had her repairs made good, was taken out of dock at Devonport on Wednesday. APPOINTMENTS.

The Lira contract steam-transport Esk hauled off front the Royal Clarence yard, Gosport, yesterday moos, baring take' in a full cargo of hay, ruts, bis cuit, and lime juice far the Crimea, fir which place she will leave this morning, haying completed coal ing, &e. PROMOTION OF CAPTAIN COURTENAY. The melancholy death of Rear-Admiral of the White David Prise, C o mmander-in• Chief on the Pacifio station, promotes Captain Courtenay to be Roar-Admiral of the Blue, and causes a vacancy in his appointments of Seperintendent of the Royal Naval Hospital at Molar and the Clarence Victualling-yard, Gosport posts which he has held but a short time, bet long enough to insure the respect of all employed under him. Having last commanded a 60• gun frigate, the Constance, on the Pacific station, and being in the prime of life, it is con sidered probable bo may bo offered the command in the Pacific. Capt. Henry Smith (a, 1828), C. 8., of the Prince Regent, succeeds Captain Courtenay at Hasler, as was stated on Tuesday. LAUNCH OF THE PYLA.DES, SCREW ®OR• VETTE, AT SHEERNESS. - - This improved Highflyer, a 21 gun screw corvette, was launched yesterday at Sheerness Dockyard, in the presence of the commander-in-chief, the Hon. W. Gorden, a distinguished party of naval ant military officers, and a large concourse of the inhabitants. Miss Tucker, the daughter of the captain superintendent, nausea the ship after the old sailing sloop Pylailee. The bands of the eonainander-in-chief, and dockyard brigade were en service on the occasion, and the event was celebrated with the usual convivialities. The Pylades has been comparatively a very short time building, and it is d ue to the respected master shipwright, Mr. L. Read, to say that scarcely ever was there se much desp a t c h ob served as in the completio n of this vessel. She is to have engines of 350-horse power, and when finished she will be one of the mo s t efficient and elegantly modelled cor vettes in the service. RUSSIAN PRIZES. Yesterday the High Marshal of the Court of Admi ralty made proclamat►on on the Royal Exchange that within 20 days from that date the Court of Admiralty would proceed to condemn the Russian ♦essel Kota, of which Bergstrom was late the waster, seized in the port of London under simulated papers ; as also the Ceres, of which Christiansen was late the master, seized under like circumstances in the port of Hull, to be lawful prizes, they being the property of the Queen's enemies; and they will be sold as Crown droite. The Russian bark Carl, pi ize to her Majesty's steamer Am:, pxuclaahed by Mr, DAyie, of Xingsl,ridge, Alai now named the Tillie and Ise, has been fitted as a tran sport, and is loading bread and provisions at the Royal William Victualling yard, Plymouth, for the British forces in tha Crimea. The Russian prize Rapide, seized at Liverpool under simulated papers, will be sold at that port, by publio aution, by Messrs. Tonge, Carry, and Co. The following General Order, appointing a successor to the deceased Brigadier-General Strangways, was issued en the 6th inst. : MILITARY. "GENERAL ORDER. " Head Quarters before Sebastopol, "November 6, 1854. "Ia consequence of the death of Brigadier-General Strangways, which the Commander of the Forces deeply deplores, in common with all who were acquainted with him and his distinguished services, Lieut.• Colonel Richard Jones Dacres, of the Royal Artillery, will as• sumo the command of the Artillery with this Army, and undertake all duties connected there with ; and the offi cers of Artillery will report to him accordingly. " By order. (Signed) "J. B. B. Earcoura, Adjutant• Gen." The following orders have also been issued by Lord Raglan "Staff Surgeon of the let Class, Dr. Hunter, will be attached to the let Division until further orders, and will take the medical superintenden ce o f th e High land Brigade. " Leave of absence is granted, at the recommendation of a medical board, to Lieut. and Adjutant F. Beswick, 38th Regiment, to proceed to England for the recovery of health. On arrival, he will report himself to the Adjutant-General, Horse Guards. " Leave of absence is granted, on medical certificate, to the undermentioned officers :—Captain J. Lovell, Royal Engineers, 6th November to 10th December ; Lieut. E. Twyeden, 55th Regiment, 6th November to 10th December." The command of the Brigade of Guards has devolTed upon Colonel the Hon.

Fifty gunners of the Royal Artillery, in charge of a sergeant, left Woolwich yesterday for Sheerness, to fill up the companies at that station. THE 3IILEITIA. Great enthusiasm prevails among the Militia regi ments at present embodied for service, on the announce ment being read permitting them to volunteer late any of the regiments they may choose to prefer, and by a telegraphic coramuaicatien received at Woolwich yester day, upwards of 60 men of the Staffordshire Militia, sta tioned at Dover, have volunteered for service in the Woolwich Division of Royal Marines. The following militia regiments have been called out for permanent service ;--The Dorset/shire, 4th Lanca shire, Nottinghamshire, Shropshire, Worcestershire, and let Cheshire. In addition to these corps, one infantry battalion and three artillery battalions will also be ima mediately embodied for garrison duty. The Royal Backs Militia, Colonel Commandant Lord Carrington, have given 150 volunteers to the Grenadier Guards, and yesterday the first detachment of thirty arrived at the Wellington-barracks, St. James's Park, front Windsor, white the regiment is doing duty. The prophecies of failure to procure the number of volunteers is the Irish militia required by the exigency of the present crisis are, after all, not likely to be ful filled. The spirit of the c oun t ry i s t h oroughly aroused. i Even n Tipperary the call for service has been promptly and cheerfully responded to. The men of Wexford, too, have been equally pro m pt i n th e i r response to the' national call. THE MEDITERRANEAN. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) SOUTHAMPTON, Thursday Morning.—The Penin sular and Oriental Company's Steam ship Nubia, Captain Harris, has arrived here with the heavy portion of the East India, China, and Mediterra nean mails, and dates from Alexandria, 7th; Malta, 11th ; and Gibraltar, 17th inst.
