I think it would be worth while to ascertain, by com-
parison, the relative quality and prices of the English
ard Sardinian mule waggon harness. It may be found
that the advantage, as to cost, is on the Sardinian side,
and that the stout white leather of which it is composed
is more durable than that furnished to this corps.
The general organisation of this corps proceeds satis-
factorily. I was glad of an opportunity lately, when a
division of the army was under orders for Eupatoria, to
try the efficiency of the corps. Two divisions of transport,
composed of 3,000 animals, with their proportion of
waggons, carts, ambulances, and artificers, were ready
for embarkation in a very short time, and appeared very
efficient and complete.
The scope of the intended operations of the force being
afterwards limited to three or four days, the amount of
transport was proportionally reduced to nearly one hale
The bulk of the treensport of an army is entirely reeu•
fated by the radius of intended operations—it is solely a
question of supply. Thus for these three days, which
were intended to be the scope of the operations at Eupa-
toria, the commissary general made a requisition on t'iis
department for 1,500 pack animals and 20 carts. The
requirements of the other branches of the force were
trifling compared to this demand, and it will enable his
lordship to form some idea of what the requirements of
- the whole army will be when it takes the field in a
country devoid of resources.
- I will here venture to express an opinion, as it bears
materiel}, upon
the subject of transport ; it is that nor
soldiers should habitually move with
three days' provi-
alone on their persons ; whether it be in war or peace,
the weight should never be diminished.

To return to the corps, The arrival of the young Eng-
lish drivers is a timely resource, as the natives had be-
gun to desert in great numbers, notwithstanding the
precautions I have taken to prevent them, in communi-
cation with the police and Admiral Freementle.
I have obtained labourers from Censtantinople to aid
in building stables, and I hope that the most valuable of
the animal, will soon be under cover.
I have adopted the constructions entirely to the nature
of the ground on which the several camps are pitched,
which, being principally rocky, I find the simplest mode - to be that of excavating a couple of feet, and running a
centre wall with a roof on either side. The earth thrown
out by the excavation being 'mixed with manure forms
every day a higher bank outside, so as to increase the
protection and warmth of the statics.

On Wednesday morning the Norwegian sloop Mouri-
den, Hansen, of Grimstadt, from Newcastle for Grim-
stadt, laden with coal, bar iron, grindstones, and crockery
ware, drifted on shore near Newholm Beck, about two
miles to the northward of Whitby. She left the Tyne on
Monday morning. About midnight of the same day the
master, mate, and a man were washed overboard by a
heavy sea, which also swept everything off the deck,
but the man caught a rope and hauled himself on board
again. While beating among the breakers on Wednes-
day morning, before coming on shore, the supercargo
was washed off the deck and drowned. Three of the
crew survived, and are at Whitby. The names of those
lost are B. Hansen (captain), Anders Terkelsen (mate),
and A. Andersen (supercargo). The other four vessels
on shore have not sustained further injury.
A letter from Shields, dated Wednesday night, says
the tremendous gale from the north-east, which coin-
menced at midnight on Monday, continued with unmi-
tigated fury more than 24 hours, and the weatheris still
very rough, with a heavy sea rolling on the coast. Nine
vessels are ashore between the Tees and the Coquet, and
some others have been stranded further south. The
crews have been all saved. No vessels can get out of
the Tyne because of the sea that is running at the bar.
Our report from Hartlepool, dated Wednesday, states
that the brig Amelia was safely towed off Middleton
Sand into the harbour of Old Hartlepool by the assist-
ance of two steam vessels. About 8p m. the brig Tees,
from Hamburg for Stockton, was driven on to the Mid-
dleton Sand, and her masts immediately went by the
board. The brig Moor, of Sunderland, having brought
up in the bay, was driven on to the sand close against
the north pier at the entrance to West Hartlepool. The
crew got out by a gangway on to the pier. The schooner
London, from Hamburg, in ballast, arrived in the bay,
and attempted to make the harbour of West Hartlepool,
but having shifted her ballast was driven ashore near to
Seaton Carew. The captain's wife and child were on
board at the time; and they, together with the crew, were
taken from the vessel by the Beate) Carew life boat.
Shortly after they, had left her she broke in two amid-
ships. Telegraphic reports announce the wrack of some
Hartlepool vessels on the Blyth rocks.

Her Majesty's ship Miranda, off St. Paul's,
Oct. 3, 1855.
have the honour to report that, according to
your directions of the 25th of Aug., I put myself in com-
munication with Capt. Bonet, of his Imperial Majesty's
ship Pomone, commanding the French naval station
here, relative to an expedition to destroy the Russian
establishments at Fanagoria and Taman, and also ar-
ranged with Captain Osborn that a simul tneous attack
sLicu!d be made on Temriouk by the Az )ff squadron.
On.the 24th ult., at daylight, the military part of the
expedition, under command of Major Hunter (71st), em-
barked, consisting of 300 of the 71st -Highland Light
Infantry, carried by the Sulina, and 600 French, of the
Infantry of the Marine, placed on board six gun-boats
of that nation; and at 8.30, the flotilla, as per margin,t
proceeded.
Arriving at Taman at noon, swarms of cavalry were
seen near it and Fanagoria, and a strong b6dy marched
into the powerful earthwork at the latter place.
The gun-boats appointed to elver the landing, as per
margin, immediately opened fire, and in a short time
forced the enemy to retire, leaving the troops to land
without opposition at the spot previously agreed upon,
about a mile east of Fanagoria. .
By four p.m. we were completely established in the
fort, in which the field-piece of this ship, and- four light
mountain howitzers from the Pomone were placed in
position. A large body of cavalry, numbering at least
600, continuing drawn up in front of Fanagoria, were
dispersed by 'some Lancaster 'shells beautifully thrown
from the Lynx and Arrow.
During the night a small body of the enemy fired
upon our sentries, and wounded a seaman of the Mi-
randa.

Some artillerymen were engaged yesterday at Wool.
wich in proving a quantity of ammunition returned
from the Crimea under a protest of .complaint, as con-
stantly rnisAng fire. It bas been discovered that this
was occasioned by the caps having become damp. It is
consequently in contemplation to adopt the use of water-
proof caps, which have undergone a trial for that Pur-
pose at the Royal Arsenal.
Lieutenant Frankland, Royal Engineers, and eight
non-commissioned officers and men belonginz to that
corps, are under orders to leave Woolwich; in order to
embark at Portsmouth in the William Jackson, trans.-
port, for Gibraltar. Capt. Lambert, of the same coi*
and a detachment of about 120 men and 27 horses are in
readiness to embark for the East, to fill up vacancies in
the companies already there.
Captain. Yokes, of the Land Transport Corps, and
Captain Baynes, •of the 88th (or Connaught Rangers) at-
tended on Saturday in Castlebar, for the purpose of re-
ceiving volunteers from the Mayo Rifles. Colonel
Knox addressed the men, pointing out the advantages
of volunteering to either of the above regiments. Im-
mediately upwards of 100 men stepped forward, 80 of
whom were approved ; the remainder having been found
to be too young were rejected.
A draught of the 13th Ligbb Dragoons, consisting of
30 min, took their departure from the depot now sta-
tioned at Dorchester by the early train on Wednesday
morning for Southampton, on the way to the Crimea.
They.were accompanied to the station by a number of
their comrades and a band playing favourite airs. There
have been despatched for the seat of war from the Dor-
chester depot 239 men since it has been stationed there.
A detachment of the 36th Regiment, under the com-
mand of Capt. Woodwiight, arrived in Dorchester on
Tuesday from Windsor, to relieve the 58th Regiment, at
Wey mouth. The remainder were to arrive yesterday.
Commander C. Wake has been appointed to the Hanni-
bal, Commander F. Mechem to the Salamander, and the
Rev. Thos. Aske, naval instructor, to the Termagant.
Yesterday morning 63 invalids from the seat of war
in the East left the Clarence Barracks, Portsmouth, for
the invalid depot at Chatham, and the remainder of the
112 who disembarked from the Niagara steam-transport
on Monday afternoon at Pertsmouth Dockyard pro-
ceeded on furlough to various parts of England, Ireland,
and Scotland. The former are mostly very badly
wounded, with loss of legs and axing ; among them is a

The buildings within the earthwork were found to be
much more extenFire than vias anticipated, consisting
of a large hospital, some storehouses, and two very
large powder magazines, in perfect order, but quite
empty, composing, with the houses of the employe's, a
very c msidcrable establishment; 66 guns, chiefly of
six; nine, and twelve pounders, and four cohorn mor-
tars were lying disabled with the work.
The storehouses were all empty except one, which
containel sons hospital necessariez,, and the dispensary,
which contained some medicines which have been pre-
served for the use of the squadron.
Taman was found to be completely deserted, !ma the
houses quite empty. A. large magazine of flour and
