OFFICIAL DESPATCH FROST FIELD-
MARSHAL LORD RAGLAN.

(From a supplement to Tuesday's Gazette.)
WAR-DEPARTMENT, Aram 26.
Lord Panmnre has this day received a despatch and
its enclosures, of which the following are copies, ad-
dressed to his lordship by Field-Marshal the Lord
Raglan, G.C.B.

Before Sibastopol, April 14, 18.55.
My Lord,—Since I wrote to your lordship on the 10th
instant, a steady and heavy fire upon the works of the
enemy has been maintained from all the batteries of the
Allies.

The fire of the British artillery, chiefly directed against
the garden Batteries, the Barrack Battery, the Radom, the
Malakhoff Tower, and the Mamelon, has been most effec-
tive, and the enemy's works have suffered very considerably,
although they have, as usual, made a good use of the night
to repair damages, notwithstanding that the vertical tiro
has been continued throughout the twenty-four hours.
The practice both of the Naval Brigade and the Artillery
has been excellent.

The casualties have not been very numerous, but the
oss has fallen heavily upon the sailors, as your lordship
will see by the accompanying returns, and the Royal Navy
has to deplore the death of Lieutenant Douglas, who had
4erved with great ability and zeal from the commencement
of the siege.
_ _

Lieutenants Urmston and D'Aeth. Royal Navy, and
3 eele, Royal Marine Artillery, all valuable officers, hays
been wounded. ,

The Royal Artillery has aleo to lament the death of
Lieutenant Luce, who was an officer of much prozuise ;
,nd Lieutenants Sinclair and L'Estrange are among the
wounded. The former has sustained several severe in-
.uries, but I am happy to add that there is every hope of
As recovery. They are both highly meritorious officers.
Captain Crofton, of the Royal Engineers, who had in
;:he course of the protracted operations before Sebastopol
'endered most essential service, h.,s also received a wound,
,which will, I fear, detain him from duty for a very con-
-siderable time.

Our batteries and parapsts continue to stand remarkably
well, notwithstanding the very unfavourable state of the
weather.

The enemy's fire has been comparatively slack, but the
•oractice good, and owing to their having ascertained the
range of our batteries with great nicety, several guns have
been disabled in both the right and left attacks.
Towards the Tchernaya nothing important has been ob-
served, but small bodies of men, from 150 to 600, ha e
been seen, with a heavy gun and some ordnance carriages,
moving along the Inkertnan heights towards Mackenzie's
Farm-road, near which it has been placed in position.
Although the duties have been unusually severe and
arduous both by day and night duringthe week, they have
been carried out with the utmost cheerfulness and zeal,
reflecting much credit both on officers and men.
The submarine telegraph has been safely brought to the
Monastery from Cape Kelegra, and as soon as it is estab.
!idled at the former place, the engineers will proceed to
convey it from the latter to the immediate neighbourhood
of Varna, where I hope it may be in a state to act in a
week or ten days from this time.

The first division of the 10th Hussars arrived this day at
Balaklava.—l have, &c., RAGLAN.
The Lord Panmure, &o. Ste.
