(raom A

INT TO Till LONDON OLSZTTI OT
TUNSDAT LAST.)

WAR DEPARTMENT, Aram 12.

Lord Panmure has this day received a despatch
and its enclosures, of which the following are copies,
addressed to his lordship by Field-Marshal the Lord
Raglan, G.C.B.
Before Sebastopol, March 27.
My Lord,—Adverting to my despatch of the 24th
instant, I do myself the honour to state that the fol-
lowing officers have been brought to my notice ail
having distinguished themselves on the night of the
22nd and morning of the 23rd, in addition to those
whose names I have already submitted to year Iced-
ship : Major the Hon. Jame. Lyon Browne, of the
21st Regiment, brother of the Hon. Captain Browne,
of the Royal Fusiliers, who, it has already been my
painful duty to report, fell upon this mania; Cap-
tain Butler, of the 20th; and Captain Rickman, of
the 77th.
I am happy to say that Captain Montagu of the
Royal Engineers, who was taken prisoner, was not
wounded, and that Lieutenant-Colonel Kelly, of the
34th Regt., who also fell into the enemy's hands, is
not severely wounded, though he received some in-
jury both in his head and hand.
Major-General Eyre, the general officer of the
benches, highly eulogises the dispositions of Lint.-
Colooel Kelly, and laments the loss of his services.
The Major General also speaks in the warmest
terms of the conduct of Lieut.-Colonel Tylden, Royal
Regineers, who received a contusion, which, however,
I am glad to be able to assure your lordship, does not
incapacitate him from continuing those exertion,
and displaying those crudities which render him so
valuable an officer.
There was a suspension of hostilities for about
three hours on Saturday, for the purpose of bury-
ing those who had fallen in the late encounters,
and it was evident from the numbers of bodies of
the enemy, and of the French, to whom the last sad
offices bad to be paid, that the loss sustained both by
the French and the Russians had been very severe,
particularly that of the latter. Some French, too,
were found lying close to the Mamelon, a proof that
their gallant spirit had carried them up to the enemy's

Nothing of importance has since occurred. The
siege operations continue to progress. and daring
the last two nights the interruption from the firs of
the enemy has been inconsiderable.
The enemy are very assiduous in the improvement
of their defences, and in the establishment of a
trench in the front of the Mameion. towards which

our ally is advancioir by serpentine sap.
The weather continues very fine, and the a -
since and health of the troops are manifestly
Dr. Gavin of the Sanitary Commission, and Mr.
Rawlioson, Civil Engineer, have arrived, and are
earnestly applying themselves to the discharge of the
duties they have undertaken to perform ; and I will
take care that they receive every aesistanee it may
be in my power to afford them.
I inclose the return of casualties to the 28th inst.
The Himalaya has arrived, and hes been disem-
barking her horses intraday and this day in Basatch
say.
Since writing the above, I have received the offi-
cial report that Captain A. B. Hill, of the 89th
Regiment, was severely wounded, and taken prisoner,
last night, whilst posting his sentries in front of the
advanced trench on our extreme left.—l have, 810.
