Lord Clarendon presents his compliments to the editor
of The Sun, and begs leave to forward to him the ac-
companying list, received from an unofficial source, of

jesty's Government for this purpose, through the oblig-
ing intervention of the Danish Minister at St. Peters-
burg.

The publication of this list might be satisfactory to

OFFICIAL DESPATCH FROM FIELD-
MARSHAL LORD RAGLAN.

( From a Supplement to Friday's Gazette.)
WAR DEPARTMENT, MAT 21.
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, May 8, 1355.

My Lord,—The enemy assaulted our advanced parallel
on the right attack on the night of the sth instant, and
some actually got into the trench ; but they were speedily
driven out and repulsed with the utmost gallantry by the
detachments occupying it, of the 30th and 49th Regiments,
nnder Captain Williamson and Lieutenant Gubbins, of the
former, and Lieutenant Rochfort, of the latter, who, un-
fortunately, was severely wounded ; and I regret to have
to add that several valuable non-commissioned officers and
men were killed and wounded on the occasion.

On the same night Captain Arnold,* of the 4th Foot,
was wounded and taken prisoner, whilst posting the
advanced sentries on the left attack. The loss of the ser-
vices of this officer is greatly to be lamented. He had
done duty unremittingly, and in the most spirited man-
ner, throughout the. operations of the siege.
I inclose the return of casualties to the 6th instant.
I have heard that six ships, having on board Sardinian
troops, have arrived in the Bosphorus.
I have, &e.,
RAGLAN.
The Lord Panmure, &c. &c.

* Intelligence has since been received of the death of
Captain Arnold.

FIRE IN LIVERPOOL.—On Sunday afternoon a fire
broke out in an old block of buildings in Lower Milk-
street, Liverpool, contaming upwards of 3,000 bales of
cotton belonging to Mr. Schofield. Owing, however, to
the exertions of the police, it was subdued before materal
damage bad been occasioned.
The strike of the colliers in the neighbourhood of
Bri'tol is as far as ever from being amicably settled.
Their conduct has, however, been orderly and peaceable.
In Nailsea the men are firm and determined ; in Bed-
minster it is stated that some few talked of " going in,"
but they were dissuaded from so doing, while the Kings-
wood men are very determined.

A. RUSSIAN SWINDLICR.—At the Middlesex sessions
yesterday, before Mr. Sergeant Adams, Henri Scherr
Thoss, described as a gentleman of superior education,
was indicted for obtaining, by false and fraudulent pre-
tences, from James Baker Pyne, a picture of the value
of 60 guineas, with intent to defraud. He was further
charged with obtaining, in like manner and with like
intent, two dressing-cases, value 461., from Thomas
Charles Hanniford ; one dressing-case, value 401., from
Francis Kennedy ; one ditto, from William Gregg ; and
a gold watch and gold chain, value 401., the property of
John Mitchell and -another,- from James Murray, their
servant. The case stood for trial at the last session,
but was postponed in consequence of the prisoner claim-
ing his right to be tried by a half foreign jury. A
mixed jury was accordingly empanelled to try him. It
appeared that the prisoner, who was stated to be a
nephew of General Rudiger, Commander of the Russian
Imperial Guard, had for some time been an accomplished
swindler, and, notwithstanding that the indictment con-
tained five charges against him, a number of persons
were present to substantiate others, so successful had he
been in his course of knavery. The evidence as to each
charge was nearly identical, and showed that he had
carried on his plunder on a cunningly-devised plan. The
jury pronounced the prisoner guilty. The assistant-
judge then sentenced the prisoner to be kept in penal
servitude for four years.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Pills for the effectual
cure of Dropsy.—The singular efficacy of Holloway's
pills in the numerous cures effected by their use, in some
of the most obstinate cases of dropsy, is very extraor-
dinary. These astonishing pills act with such peculiar
effect upon the system, that the fluids arising from this
direful disease are imperceptibly carried off, and or tirely
prevented from any further accumulation. The distres—
ing symptoms which accompany this complaint being
thus dispersed, the sufferer regains buoyancy of spirit',
and a completely renovated constitution. Females at
particular periods of life should have recourse to these
admirable pills, as they are the finest medicine ever
known. Sold by all medicine vendors, and at Pro-
fessor Holloway's Establishments, 244, Strand, Lon-
don, and 80, Maiden-lane, New York.
" The nomination of Prince Yermaloff to high
functions at St. Petersburg," says the Constitution-
nel, "has for some days been the subject of gene-
ral conversation, and it is naturally considered as
an indication of the increasing influence of the old
Russian party. The nomination has called to mind
the remark which caused the Prince to fall into
disgrace with the late Czar. The Emperor Nicholas,
to whom he constantly made opposition, said to him
one day—' What must I do for you, Yermaloff, to
make you more manageable !' `Make a German of
me, Sire replied the Prince,—alluding to the
preference which the sovereign accorded to what
is called in Russia the German party, of which
Count de Nesselrode is one of the chiefs. After
this reply, the Prince was ordered to retire to
Moscow, and he has since lived there, setting him- '
self up as chief of the national party."
