COLONEL SIMMONS TO SIR EDMUND LYONS.
Eupatoria, Feb. 20, 1856, 9 p.m.
The bearer is an aide-de-camp of the 13/riskier,
having despatches from Omer Punka to hie government.
His Highness would be much obliged to you if you would
kindly order him a passage to Constantinople by the int

I should say doubly so, and nearly twice as many guns
mounted as es the 17th.

That affair wen pretty sharp, and the Russians loot a
great many men: we have interred 453, and there can be
no doubt they carried off and buried many more who were
killed at long ranges by our artillery. They also left nearly
300 deed horses on the field. Our loss was 87 killed, 277
wounded, Turks; 4 killed and 9 wounded, French ; and 13
killed, 11 wounded, of the population; besides 79 horses
killed and 18 wounded. Our field battery had 19 men
(Turks) killed, and every gun (6) disabled. The Turks
behaved very well. Selina Paha, the Estyptiao, who was
killed, was a great loss, but hi, place is well supplied by
Saliva= Pasha, who was woueded.
Omer Pasha is most gratified at the promptitude with
which you sent uo ships after hearing of the attach. The
exertions of the officals sod men of your float in disembarking

BAVARIA.—The extraordinary levy to complete the
contingent was fixed at 18,290 men of the classes of
1832 and 1833. It was, however, discovered that the
provinces of Upper and Lower Franconia, Swabia,
and the Palatinate were not able to tarnish their
shares. The Palatinate, for instance, has to furnish
2,211 men, but there were only 1,218, from which
bad to be deducted those bodily unfit for duty and
those who had been proved guilty of crimes. eiders

after furnishing their quota of men, have a surplus,

HAMBURG and LUBECK are at this moment en-
gaged in negotiating with Oldenburg on the subject
of their forming one brigade. The commissioners
are now at Hamburg.
BEUNSWICIL—The contingent wants but a few
more horses to complete the hussars, and will then be
ready. The ehamber of representatives has given its
sanction to the bill brought in by ministers for legal-
ising the forced sale of horses required for the use of
the army.
Nessau.—Those recruits living abroad have re-'
ceived orders to return forthwith, and report them-
selves to As war department. The contingent of
Nassau and Luxembourg combined amounts to 6,375
men, of which Luxembourg has to furnish the
cavalry, amounting to 870 men and horses. A sani-
tary company is being formed. It already consists
of upwar& of 100 men, to whom the chief physician,
Dr. Ebhardt, gives regular lectures on the practical
duties they will have to perform.
BREMEN is gradually completing her arrangements.
As a convention has been made with Oldenburg to
furnish the staff and artillery due from Bremen, there
remain but the hospital staff and field train to be
organised.
SAXONY has already reported to the Diet at Frank-
fort that her contingent is ready.
BADEN.—TiII the purchases of horses required for
the cavalry remounts are completed all private sales
of horses without the knowledge and consent of the
government are forbidden, the sales to be cancelled,
and the parties fined for each sale 500 florins. The
remount commission has given notice of their inten-
tion to buy serviceable hones of from 5 up to 12
years old, and invited breeders and owners to bring
them on fixed days to the different towns of the
grand duchy. By the last accounts the commission
was at Heidelberg.
ANHALT BEENBERO.—A message from the govern-
ment to the Landtag inform, the assembly that the
negotiations hitherto pending with the neighbouring
duchy of

AI4IIIALT DESSAU, for the formation of their joint
contingents into one brigade, have been broken off,
and that the government has, therefore, opened nego-
tiations with Prussia for the purpose of incorporating
their contingent into the Prussian army.
SAXE ALTENBURG.—In order to place our little
contingent on a war footing, it was necessary to
make great alterations amongst the officers, in
consequenes of which • comparatively large promo-
tion has taken place. A colonel commandant of our
battalion and a second major have been newly ap-
pointed, besides which, two captains and six lieute-
nants have been promoted a grade. In the arsenal,
the workmen are busily engaged in altering the per-
cussion locks and transforming the muskets of both
our battalions into zundnadelgewehre, like those in
use in the Prussian army.
SAXE COBURG GOTHA.—AII the men on furlough
have been recalled, and every other step taken.
In a day or two the contingent will be prepared for
any emergency.
The contingents of the Thuringian States have al-
ready reported themselves to the central government
at Frankfort as prepared.
