Avrsovoa the text of the Report of the Crimean
Commissioners will not be made public until Mon-
day, report speaks very highly of the calm, tempe-
rate, fair, full, and able manner in which it la
drawn up. To the previous investigation sad
report ample judos m dons; its unavoidable de-
ficiencies are, we uoderstand, corrected in an excel-
lent spirit; and when the General Officers do dimmest
from the consissions, it is upon grounds that are
fully stated. They do, however, very materially
differ from Sir Joan M'bitzu. and Galooel Tut,-
Loot as to the causes of defective commissariat sup-
plies. They find them not so much in the boas who
demanded the farther inquiry as in the department
of the Treasury whisk was at the time charged
with the Commissariat. By that department, after
full eonsidentien of all Sir Cam= TIVIILTAVI
explanations, the Board is of opinion that some of
Mr. Fuzifies requisitions—particularly that as to

hay—on which the inquiry chiefly !aria, were not
adeqpidely and promptly responded to. This will be
found to be the principal fading of the report. It
amounts, therefore, to, an acquittal of the =Mary
odors, and to a serious Inculpation of nee of the
a= eminent civil servants ia the employment of the
Crown ; of a man of whom we should may he had
but one fault, and that is a desire to do more than
any single being, however great his faculties or
Herculean hie powers of work, an perform. That'
Si, CHARLES TRIVZLYAN attempted in this Mae. In
the opinion of the Board of Inquiry he broke down
is the attempt. In this verdict of the Board ell to
the delinquencies of the Horns Department of the
Commissariat we are disposed to poseur; but we
most in fairness add that it appears to dial tenderly
enough with the want of resources sad haventiveases
displayed by divisional commands= This can only
be remedied by giving es sa =mated seat
As to the road for not =kis( which Sir
RICHARD AIM wee assured, the truth, we hear,
is plainly stated. The alternative was this : either
the besieging work' moat have bees seriously
diminished in force, or the sonstrueden of the read
mast be delayed. The latter was dimmed the lam
evil; in the judgment of the Board correctly.
Of course we make no pretension to give a fall
account of the Report, which we do not profess to have
seen ; but on the above two points our stalement
will, we believe, be found to be accurate.

On the subject of the Commissariat eve remark is
unavoidable. It failed whom under the emporia-
tandem of the Treasury. From the time, however
that it woe Windowed to the War Department, a
marked and ims►ediate improvement was visible.
The clothing was delivered oat to the day ; the rations
wen full and ample; the Merkel comforts were our

slanted. The question of ad-ministration reform end
improvement, in this respect, his therefore been fully
and completely mired and settled.
This much rosy, however, be suggested by the
Press, though it could not come within the mope of
the Board of General Mows' Inge*. For the Com-
missariat of an army In the field, the Gummi in
command is, after all, responsible. Whatever other
merits the late Lord RaotAlt had, judged is his
Crimean command by this infallible test of military
greatness he mast be held to have failed, and by his
failure he inflicted incredible suffering on the troops
entrusted by his Sovereign and his country to his
eats.
