His Ono; the Duke of ifeWciistle has received a
despatch, of which the following is a copy, addressed,
to his area by Field Marshal the Lord Raglan,
G.C.B.

Before Sevutopol, Jut. 15, 1855.

• -
Mr LOUD Duxu,—The fall of snow has been very great
for the last three days, and It is now fully a foot deep,
which, I am assured, is a very unusual occurrence in this
part of the Crimea.
This circumstaace adds materially to our difficulties in
obtaining fedi but detachments of Turks are posted near
the coast to bring up wood, which has been cut by pieties
of oar own in the neighbourhood of the Monastery of Bt.
George, to the nearest divisions.
I am happy to say that the number of wounded in the
sortie of the Russians, on the night of the 12th inst., was only
sir instead of thirty-six, as I erroneously stated to your
grace in my despatch of the 13th, and that it was altoge-
ther a less serious affair than was at first reported.
I enclose the return of casualties between the 12th and
14th, inclusive. _ _ .

Last night this enemy attacked the French advanced
trench in ammiderable force, but were repulsed after a
sharp contest, and some loss on both sides.

_
I am, &e.,
Lie Gram the Duke of Neweutle, the.

RAGLAN.

PORTSMOUTH, Pm. 2.

I - ,
The screw transport Mauritius arrived at Spithead
this &Barstools from Malta. Her arrival at Falmouth wu
reported in yesterdsy's Daily News. The wind has been
blowing a gale all day, and no communication has been had
with the Mauritius yet. The Sprightly, however, went out
to her at five o'clock this afternoon, having Town-Major
Maitland and Major Dalgetty, Brigade-Major, on board, to
make the requisite azrangements for the ships coming into
harbour to-morrow morning, to disembark the 303 sick sad
wounded troops, and woman and children she has on board'
The Bnowdown, paddle steam transport, having the last
batch of wooden huts on board, and the men from the
London Docks to act as wharfingers, &c., at Balakiava,
sailed to-day for her destination. Although the wind is
high it is favourable for her, and she is expected to be out in
sixteen days.
Some movements have bun ordered at this port of a

somewhat sudden character. The Duke of Wellington,
131, screw-►hip, Captain Gordon, was ordered yesterday to
prepare for sea. She was being completed :at Spithead in
her refit, and a party of workmen were going off to her
yesterday marling, when they reeeivid countermanding
orders. She sails for Plymouth on Monday.
The screw sloop F.sk, 21, Captain Birch, sailed for Ply-
mouth this morning.
All the ships in harbour are ordered to be completed
with *very dispatch. To-day the James Watt, 91, screw
ship, Captain Elliot, was ordered to be got ready for sea as
soon as possible.
The exercising brig, Sealsek, 8, Lieutenant Lowther
(tender to the Illustrious, Captain Harris), is preparing for
her summer cruise.

The Echo, steam tug, went to Southampton yesterday
afternoon to bring round a draft of the 67th Regiment for
embarkation on board the Eliza J►ne, sailing vessel, now,
lying at Spitbead, for conveyance to the West Indies. One
draft belonging to the 69th Reaiment has also arrived in
this garrison for embarkation on board the Eliza Jane.
The Tyne, stare skip, Master Commanding James B.
Tucker, sailed yesterday afternoon for the river to discharge
the stereo she has brought home from the Brazilian and
West Coast of Africa squadrons.

The Qoeen's new yacht Victoria and Albert, was taken
I into the Steam Basin yesterday to have her machinery pet
on board. . .

The eighty prisoners sent out to the convict transport
Soindian had to be brought into harbour again, the sea at
Spithead being too high to put them on board. They were,
however, seat out again yesterday and shipped on board.
The &indigo sails with them for Gibraltar to-night or to-
morrow morning.

The crow of the Retribution, 28, paddle frigate, Captain
Tatham, were paid wages today, and granted leave whilst
the ship is receiving repairs.

SHEERNESS, Fan. 2.

The screw steam frigate, Horatio, commander Hobert
Jenne", arrived here yesterday at 10.30 cm , from Ha-
-1 with.
..

The Russell, 80 guns (of heavy calibre), screw steam shit),
was put out of No. 2 Dry Dock yesterday ; she is ordered to
be masted and rigged immediately, and on the Pylades
(now in No. 1 Dry Dock) being undocked, the Russell is to
be docked in No. 1 Dock to complete her fitment of machi-
nery,
rigging, etc.
A number of additional artificers have been put on the
Royal George, 120 guns, and the Majestic, 80 guns, to ex-
pedite their equipment by the lit day of March next, so
that they may be out of the muter shipwright's department
by that date.

Fza. 2.

The General Screw Company'. steamer Mauritius
arrived hers early this morning from the Black Sea. She
has brought home 112 invalids, 90 women, and 100 children.
She wu ordered to proceed to Portsmouth immediately
The Lady Jocelyn Usurer, and the tailing ship White Fal-
con, left here to-day for the Crimea, with wooden huts for
the French troops. The Severn, which had been sent out
in the stream, returned to the dock again this morning.
This afternoon, about 451 troops, chiefly srtillery, and other
persons, arrived from Woolwich and London, in special
trains, and embarked on board the Severn. One artillery
officer, 117 artillerymen, and 9 women, who embarked,
will be left at Malta ; 8 artillery officers sad 28
artillerymen will be takes on to the Crimea. Lieute-
nants Elton, Collingwood, Franklin, Anley, and Mitchell,
Mr. Bennett, clerk of the works at seatart, the two fore-
men of the works, Mesa,. Hammond and Elides, and the
Rev. H. C. Johnson, also embarked on board the Severn.
She will proceed to Cork on Monday to embark 3 officers
and 101 men of the 3rd and 72nd Regiments of Foot, 3
superintendents, and 47 commissariat drivers for the
Crimea. The General Screw Company's steamer Cal-
cutta, just arrived from Australia, has ban taken up by
the government, and is to be fitted up like the Crones to
take out infantry troops.

Experiments have recently been tried under the
superintendence of the authorities at Woolwich Arsenal,
to test the advantage of employing India.rabber to
diminish the shock occasioned to the timbers of a vessel by
the firing of heavy mortar or gins. One of the new
=boats, the Binbad, has lately ,been tined at Wool-
-11-witki a set of powerful India-rubber springs beneath
Ms olidelemb_nad the result has proved highly satisfactory.
Twisty 111116.11 were fired with a shall of 200 lbs. weight,
carrying a Motown of from 4,000 to 6,000 yards, and the
springs on examination were found to be perfect as at
starting. The Sinbad is fitted with twelve springs, each
of which is calculated to ?eget a concussion of from 20 to 25
teas, at an average compression of from 1 to 11 inches,
showing that the actual recoil on firing one of these large
pieces is from 200 trop 260 tons. In order fully to test the
advantage of the aplication, twenty rounds were fired
with and twenty without the springs, when the difference
in the effect upon the timbers of the vessel was very appa-
rent, and fully established the superiority_of this mode of
Lis
heavy established
on shipboard. The Buck-
this purpon have been supplied by Mr. Faller, oflenbury.

EVENING, FEBRUARY 3, 1855.

all that can be desired. They are, of course, put up
near Balaklava; for, under present circumstances, it
is impossible to take the huts up to camp, and
the regiments in the front will most probably be
without them until they are no longer wanted.
When the roads get dry, and the draught cattle can be
kept alive, then it will be spring, and life under can-
vas will no longer be a hardship. The huts came
too late. May I mention that this is about the time
when new tents and suitable clothing for summer '
should be provided ? We may look for a summer-like
opening early in April. Our men suffer enough '
from cold and wind—there is no reason why they
should contend, unprotected and overclad, against
the blaze of a Crimean summer sun.
Warm clothing is becoming more frequent among
the men. The ordnance, in particular, have excellent
coats, and will be all the better for them. But the
supply, though still aooeptable, comes two months
too late. A good many remarks might be made
about the efficiency of the clothing
_generally, but
such remarks can do no good now. The army must
get on as well as they can, and look to the future for
better things.
I believe that a crisis is at hand in the affairs of
Balaklava. In my last letter, writing about the
disgraceful state of the town, I felt it my duty to
make some strong remarks on the conduct of Colonel
Haines, who is commandant of Balaklava, who
neglected carrying out the measures absolutely requi-
site for decency, health, and cleanliness. My letter
was scarcely posted when the views it expressed
received full confirmation by the authorities, who
superseded Colonel Haines, and appointed Colonel
Harding commandant of the town. That officer will
have an arduous and unpleasant duty, bat one which
must be done. The cleaning of the stables of Augeas
is mere child's play to the cleaning of Balaklava,
from the mountains of filth and the lakes of mire
which, under two inefficient commandants, have, as
it were, acquired a vested interest in their nasty and
poisonous existence. Balaklava—the streets, yards,
and the beach—wants a thorough cleaning and pav-
ing, and a good police to keep the town clean.
Twenty or thirty street lamps might possibly be
bought in Constantinople, or, at all events, at Malta,
and these—though a luxury—would materially assist
in maintaining order and regularity. Nor would their
cost in oil, &c., add much to the expenses of the
war. The burial of the dead, too, requires re-consi-
deration ; and there really is no reason why the vic-
tims of disease should propagate the doom which
overtook them; nor can there be any objection to the
dead bodies being carried out to sea. The long and
the short of it is, that Colonel Harding finds a great
deal of necessary business waiting for him, and that
every one is very anxious he should do it, and do it
well.

All the sutlers have been warned out of Bslaklava,
to make room for government stores. In the case of
the low Maltese and lonians, who sold brandy,
Maltese cigars, cheese, and pickles at an advance of
1,000 per cent. above cost price, there is in this eject-
ment nothing distressing or alarming. Not so in the
case of one or two respectable merchants who came to
Balaklava, incited by newspaper reports, which pro-
mistd them a profitable market, and a chance of
doing a vast deal of good. With respect to them,
the ejectment is a discouragement of legitimate enter-
prise; and as there are only a few of them, it seems
hard that a couple of shops cannot be spared, were it
only for the purpose of encouraging respectable
traders. Private contributions can hardly be ex-
pected, for any length of time, to administer to the
comforts and luxuries of a large army. Healthy
speculation and respectable trade alone can keep up
ewe ,applies, and distribute them so that all and each
tome in for a share. Only those who witnessed our
privations in the first month of our Crimean existence
can form an idea of the fervour with which the arrival
of merchants was desired. Now they have come,
they are warned off. I fear we shall all have reason
to regret this indiscriminate expulsion of the antler..
Yesterday the Commander-in-Chief and his staff
and General Airey rode into Balaklava. Lord Rag-
lan's sudden and unexpected appearance excited some
sensation, and gave rise to a good many comments.
But the general impression is that something will he
done for the improvement of Balaklava now that
the Commander-in-Chief has seen with his own eyes,
and smelt with his own nose, the abominations of
the place.

Since I wrote last we have had heavy falls of
snow. The night from the 15th to the 16th was the
coldest night we have yet known in tho Crimea,
and on the 16th a terrible snow storm, high wind,
and drift snow, ruled all day long. In the camps, the
snow lay two feet deep in the tents. It is needless
to speak of the sufferings of the men—that one fact
tells vqu more than whole volumes of declamation
could tell you. The frost continued on the 17th,
but the snow ceased falling. The morning of the
18th broke with a violent thaw, and just now all the
snow is converted into water, drenching and piercing
everything.

(PROM A SPECIAL CORSI

OP THE DAILY NEWS),

CAMP BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, JL2I. 20.

The warm clothing is new being being carried up
in larger quantities to be divided amongst the troops.
The sheepskin clothing, although it does not smell
fragrantly, yet is a capital protection against the
cold, piercing winds. A thaw has set in within the
last two days. We are tired of the white glare, and
begin to wish for a sight of the sod once more, which
is beginning to peep out in little patches here
and there. The 39th Regiment, which arrived in
the Golden Fleece, has not been disembarked, but
has been employed on fatigue duty at Balaklava.
Cholera has attacked that regiment. How strange
that all new arrivals are called upon to pay this
penalty. The huts are showing themselves about our
position. The hospitals are being got up first. The
houses look very snug, and will no doubt enable us to
bold out against much of the misery with which we
shall have to contend. Some talk about overtures for
peace, but we shall all bite our nails if there be any
terms before we have wrested, vi et arras, Sebastopol
from the Russians. That done, we care not how
soon a peace, honourable to our armies, is con-
cluded. Spring won't be long in setting in. Then
many of our hardships, arising solely from the season,
must disappear. I have nothing to mention about
the operations in the trenches. There is really no
fighting going on, even at long range. Some days
pass over without a shot being pitched into our lines,
so feeble has the already languid fire become. The
63rd Regiment is nearly done up, from deaths and
sickness. It is thought that the few who remain
will be sent on to Malta. Great numbers of
men are daily employed in carrying/atores up
to the camp. You may trace them, like lines of
ants, against the white snow ground, going to and
returning from the port, all day long. The Turks and
their cattle are kept pretty well at this sort of work.
I am told there is an immense number of troops
on the sick list, but am not in a position to
give the total number. Oar poor army is going
through a terrible crucible here, before it is hardened
and seasoned for the usual calamities and sufferings
of war. It is a pity that we have not had good
magazines of provisions on the ground here before
this weather set in.
We look anxiously forward for the arrival of our
friends, the stout navvies!' Their works, when
finished, will be of a most substantial character, and
will go far to save the wear and tear of animal life.
It would be a splendid plan to have a force of such
men always employed, during war time, not alone
for constructing roads, but also for throwing
up, under the orders of the engineers and sappers/
the batteries, redoubts, opening the zigzags, covered
ways and parallels, while the military are solely em-
ployed to cover them. Navvies work professionally
with the pick and shovel; they go at it with a will,
and one would do more work, in a given space of
time, than four or half-a-dozen soldiers. To a soldier
this digging is a strange occupation, and they do not
do the work well, even with the best intentions;
give me a "navvy" for such labours. The
French troops have been employed, more than
a thousand per day, in carrying up our shot and
shell. The French gunners threw a shell, about a
week since, into the centre of the Russian arsenal,
but, unfortunately, it did not explode. A change
has taken place in the Royal Naval Brigade. The
seamen gunners, employed on the redoubts and bat-
teries, on the lines of Balsklava, have been moved up
to the front, where they have joined the camp, em.
ployed in the trenches. The guns near Mashie's
are now manned by the Royal Artillery. The ships,
companies of the TiSidlderi Briteenles Veurellee,

I

Retribution, and Niger have bean withdrawn from
the brigade. They were marched off the ground, on
Sunday morning, down to Chersonese, where they
were all embarked on board the Vengeance, for pas-
sage to England, to join their respective ships, about
to leave the station.
