Enclosure 8.
Eupatoria, October 25, 1855.
Sir, --I have the honour to report that the allied
troops stationed here, under the command of General of
Division D'Allonville, marched from Eupatoria on Mon.
day morning the 22d inst.
The force advanced in two columns, the details of
which are in the margin,* the one taking a northerly
direction, and skirting towards the east of the lake
Susik Guiloie, until it arrived at the village of Kara-
gurt ; the other proceeding by the strip of land between
that lake and the sea, to the town of Sak.
The Light Cavalry Brigade and troop of Horse Artil-
lery, under my command, formed part of the first-men.
tioned column, which was commanded by General D'Al.
lonville himself.

We marched at daybreak, and arrived at Baragurt
(13 rules) about 4 p.m., when we bivouacked for the
night, and which, before leaving, we destroyed.
When we had advanced within about three miles of
this village we came in pi e:>ence of a force of about 20
squadrons of Russian cavalry, who retired before us, af-
ter some shots from the French Horse Artillery, which
told with some effect.

On the evening of the 23d we proceeded, at daybreak,
in a southerly direction, passing close to the village of
Temesh, where we came in sight of a body of Russian
cavalry, considerably superior in numbers to that we
bad seen the evening before, a strong force of guns, and,
I believe, some batallions of? infantry.
This body also retired before us, at ,!a considerable
distance, while we continued our advance to the village
of Tuzla, on a rising ground to the left of which village
General ll'Allunville took up a position and offered
battle, Captain Thomas's troop of Horse Artillery firing
several rounds with precision, which were answered by
the enemy without effect.

After waiting here for two hours, and seeing that the
enemy were effecting a further retreat, General D'Al-
lonville formed a junction with the column, under
Musbir Achmet Pasha, at the town of Sak, Aere we
bivouacked, destroying the town and considezable Rus-
sian cantonments.

On the 24th inst., yesterday, we returned to Eupa•
toria by the sea coast road.
On the first day's march, the French cavalry were in
front, the English cavalry in support ; the Turkish
cavalry on our left flank. On the second day, the
cavalry under my command were in advance, supported
by the French cavalry, the Turkish cavalry on our left
flank.
I have great satisfaction in stating that General
D'Allonville expressed' to me his approval of the manner
in which the cavalry I have the honour to command
manceuvred in the field, as likewise of the good prac-
tice of our Horse Artillery ; and I may perhaps be per-
mitted to express my acknowledgments of the courtesy
evinced towards me, and the troops under my command,
by the General during the time we were in the field,
and since we landed at Eupatoria.
I beg to enclose a return of casualties+, caused by ex.
haustion from the want of water, of which there was
a very great scarcity everywhere.
Captain Hai/Alen, Royal Navy, has requested
me to inform you that the French brig of war,
Allouette, and her Majesty's ship Diamond, co-
operated with the troops on this occasion ; but that
he, finding a sailing vessel unhandy on tl is servic
placed the guns and men of the Diamond on board the
steam transport Oneida, from which he fired on the
flanks, and on some advanced pickets of the enemy.—
' I have, &c.,

APPREHEIVSION OF LOB. MARTINSON.

Robert Martinson, the Newcastle-on-Tyne Bank
cashier, who absconded, after stealing nearly 5,0001.,
was apprehended yesterday at Southampton, on board
the United States mail steamer Washington, just as she
WAS about to leave that port for Now York. lie has been
advertised for the last week, and 100 guineas reward
offered for whoever would give such information as
would lead to his apprehension. A detective police offi-
cer has been in Southampton for some time on the out-
look for him. Martinson, it appears, arrived at South-
ampton on Friday last, and frequently passed the detec-
tive without being noticed. Mr. Hillier, a clerk to
Messrs. Croskey and Co., the agents for the Washington
steamers recognised him amongst the other passengers on
board the Washington, and gave him into custody of the
detective. The delinquent cashier had been living at an
inn in the town very freely. Yesterday morning, two or
three hours before the Washington sailed, he gave the
landlord of the inn two 1001. Bank of England notes to
get changed. The latter took thew to a bank in the
town, where some demur was made as to giving change
fur them. The presenter of the notes stated that they
belonged to a gentleman who had put up at his house.
This caused him to decline changing them, unless that
gentleman could give a reference. When the landlord re-
turned to his house, he found the owner of the notes had
gone on board the Washington to arrange about his
berth, and he t'ken thought that ho would take the notes
to Messrs. Croskey and Co., to endeavour to obtain
change for them there. Mr. Hillier, the clerk in the
office, hearing the landlord mention the circumstance
about the notes, and having read the advertisement about
Martinson, went on board, saw him, and also saw that
he answered the description given in the advertisement,
and he then very quietly put himself en rapport with the
detective, and gave the robber into custody. In lees
than an hour afterwards, the latter was on his way to
London, instead of to New York.
