OFFICIAL DESPATCH PROM FIELD.
MARSHAL LORD RAGLAN.

( From a Supplement' to Friday's Gazette.)
WAR DEPARTMENT, MAY 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.R.

Before Sebastopol, May 8, 1855.

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,
under 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 hare, &c.,
RAGLAN.
The Lord Panmure,

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

Lord Clarendon presents his compliments to the editor
of The Sun, and begs leave to forwaid to him the ac-
companying list, received from an unofficial source, of
some of the English prisoners at Voronetz' in Russia,
who have been relieved from funds supplied by her Ma-
jesty's Government for ibis purpose, through the oblig-
ing intervention of the Danish Minister at St. Peters-
burg.

The publication of this list might be satisfactory to

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S.-MONDAT.

The sensation created by- the fall of De Clare, the
sometime leaiing favourite, and within the last fortnight
backed for several thousands, served to stimulate curio
sity, and to increase perplexity. On the Stock Exchange
in the morning 4 to 1 vias ominously laid, and in less than
an hour afterwards some of the City division were bold
enough to increase the odds tenfold, 40 to 1 being .eur-
rently offered. At "The Corner" he was quite out of the
betting—be was evidently irrecoverably "gone." The
next surprise was occasionel by the announcement that
Rifleman was too lame to start. It is stated that on Sa
turday morning he was quite sound and well, but in the
afternoon was found to be " dead lame." The vacan-
cies thus caused were opportunities for Lord of the
Isles, Wild Dayrell, and Kingstown to obtain prefer-
meht, and their friends worked zealously and success-
fully. Lord of the Isles, at 2 to 1, became first fa-
vourite ; Wild Dayrell, at 3 to 1, was the second ; and
Kingstown, at 9to 2, was the third. The investments
on each were to some hundreds. At one time 70 to 40
was repeatedly taken about Lord of the Isles, but
at the close of the business 2 to 1 was currently offered
on the field ; 800 to 200 was taken once about Kings-
town. Pdros advanced to 16 to 1, and a marked im-
provement was manifested in the respective positions of
Flatterer and Dirk Hatteraick ; the former was hacked
at 20 and 16 to 1, and the latter at 30, 25, and 20 to 1.
The Oaks befitting presented no feature of importance.

THE NECESSITY OF GERMANY CO
OPERATING WITH THE ALLIES.

The Austrian Gazette of Vienna publishes the
following remarks :
" The interruption of the conferences of Vienna
has led to the resumption of deliberations at Frank-
fort. The epoch has now arrived at which the
German powers must assume on the Eastern ques-
tion the attitude which becomes them. If they
were to resolve to act in concert with Austria, and
to prov'e energetically that they are ready to make
sacrifices for the common cause, •it is very proba-
ble that such sacrifices would not be required-from
them. Rarely has there arisen such an oc-
'casion as the present for substituting good-will
for action. Russia would cede in presence of
united Germany,. GerNany, which has hitherto
been neglected, would then be able to command
esteem everywhere, and to cause her influence to
prevail ; but, if the German powers, or a great
part of them, were to separate from Austria, we
should find ourselves at the commencement of a
frightful confusion of which no one can foresee the
end. Those persons who think that Austria can
be forced by Germany to observe neutrality, to
abandon her western allies, and to cede to the
pretensions of Russia, deceive themselves greatly. ,
By a false policy on the part of the German States,
the treaty of the 2d December may assume a cha-
racter of intimacy which the German capitals do
not desire to see it possess. If Germany refuses
to support the policy, which Austria has followed,
France must supply the reserves required' by the
latter. How insensate are those who believe that
the expedition of the Crimea has exhausted the
forces of France, and that she is now incapable of
placing on foot a large army ! A word pronounced
in the Germanic Diet would, suffice to cause a
French army to pass the Rhine in the course of the
present year ! Twelve months back, there were
many persons who deceiVed themselves with respect
to the forces of Russia, and now there are as many
who judge falsely of the forces of France and Eng-
land. The check sustained by the Russians be-
fore Silistria gave a bad idea of their military
power ; the resistance which the French ant]. the
English met with before Sebastopol- causes it to be
believed that France and England are exhausted.
If, however, the Emperor Napoleon, and Lord
Derby, the future chief of the British Cabinet, be
forced to take an extreme resolution—they must
take one if peace be not promptly re-established—
Europe will soon present the same spectacle that
she did during the first fifteen years of this century.
The false sentiment of security which appears to
prevail in Germany makes us tremble. The storm
is suspended over Germany and over Poland, and
it will certainly break over both, •and especially
over the latter, if it be not averted. It may still
be turned aside ; as Germany can still, though at
the elevehth hour, restore peace to the world and
herself, she can still remove from her frontiers the
perils of the present, and part of those of the
future."

" 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 flay—' 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.'
ADMINISTRATIVE REFORM.—A public meeting, con-
vened by the Mayor, was held at the Shire-hall, Glou-
cester, on Friday evening, to take into consideration this
important subject. The meeting was numerously at-
tended—the Lord Mayor in the chair. The speakers
were Messrs. Potter, Kimberly, Baker, 'Helps, Phill-
potts, and W. P. Price, M.P. . Resolutions urging the
necessity of reform, &c., were carried unanimously, and
a petition to Parliament was read and adopted.
