WAR DEPARTMENT, Szrr. 21.

Lord Panmure has this day received a despatch
and its enclosures, of which the following are oopiea,
addressed to his Lordship by General Simpson:
Before Sebastopol, Sept. 8.

My Lord,—At daylight on the stlCin;tat;t, the
batteries of the Allied armies opened a steady and
continuous fire against the enemy's works.
During the night one of the vessels, supposed to
be a frigate, stationed on the north side of the har-
bour, was set on fire by, it is believed, a shell from a
French battery in their right attack. The firing,
daring the 6th, 7th, and up to the present moment,
has continued uninterrupted, and but feebly responded
to by the Ruslans.
Another frigate was discovered yesterday afternoon
to be on tire, and has been entirely destroyed.
From the length of time it continued burning, it
is supposed to have contained stores.
About eleven o'clock last night a heavy explosion
took place, but I have not as yet been able to ascer-
tain in which part of the enemy's works.
I beg to enclose the list of casualties to the 6th
inst.—l have, &c.,
JAMES SIMPSON, General Commanding.
The Lord Panmure, &c.
