OFFICIAL DESPATCH FBO,II THE

CRIMEA.

(Front a Supplement to the London Gazette of Tuesday.)

WAR DEPARTMENT, JULY 4.

Lord Panmure has this day received a despatch and its
enclosures, of which the following are copies, addressed to
his Lordship by the late Field-Marshal the Lord Raglan,
G .C. B.:—

Before Sebastopol, June 23.

My Lord,—l informed your lordship in my despatch
of the 19th instant that I would make a more special
report upon the movements of the 3d Division as soon
As I should receive the reports of Lieutenant-General
Sir R. England and the Major-Generals commanding
brigades under him.
The Ist Brigade, under Major-General Barnard, pro-
cee4ed down the Woronzow-road, and was placed in po-
sition on the right of the ravine, ready to co-operate
with the columns of attack on the right ; whilst the 2d
Brigade, under Major-General Eyre, moved down the
ravine which separates the left of the English from the
right of the French advanced works, for the purpose o f
attacking the enemy's ambuscades, and making a de-
monstration on the head cf the dockyard creek.
This service was performed with the utmost gallantry,
and notwithstanding that they were exposed to a most
galling fire the troops maintained themselves in the po•
sition they had taken up durip the day, and in the
evening withdrew unmolested, leaving a post at the
cemetery, which had been one of the objects of the
attack in the morning.
become a most serious one,
having from circum-
stancesous one, I heg, as the meet
satisfactory way of-
making your lordship acquaintedwith the particulars, to lay a copy of the Major-Gene-
ral's letter before your lordship, and to solicit your at-
tent,on to the officers whose services he particularly
notices, and at the same time to his own distinguished
conduct.
your lordship will see
with concern that the loss
isus-
tained by this brigade s very considerable, and that
lgajor-General Eyre is himself wounded ; but I have
every reason to hope that the injury he has received is
not very severe, and will not incapacitate him from the
discharge of his duty with the tame energy and devo-
tion as he has already applied himself to its performance
during the protracted operations before Sebastopol.
Lieutenant-General Sir G. Brown, to whose able as-
sistance I referred in my former despatch, has specially
brought to my notice the distinguished conduct of Col.
Yea, who was unfortunately killed, and pays a just tri-
bute to the great merits of this deeply lamented oficer ;
of Lieutenant-Colonel Lyson', of the 23d ; Lieutenant-
Colonel Johnstone, of the 33d ; and Captain Gwilt, of
the 34th, all of whom are wounded ; of Major-General
Cudrington, who commanded the Light Division ; of
Captain Blackett, of the Rifle Brigade, who has lost a.
leg ; and-of Captain Foreman, of the Rifle Brigade, who-
fell npos the occasion ; and Major-General Cldrington
mentions the admirable conduct of Captain Turner, of
the 7th Foot ; Major illacdonell, of the Rifle Brigade ;
Lieut. Knox, of the Rifle Brigade, who is wounded ;
and Lieut. Donovan, of the 33d.
Lieut.-General Sir R. England speaks highly of Col.
Cobb; of the 4th Regiment, who commanded*, in the
trenches of the left attack, and is severely wounded ;
and Lieut.-General Bentinck eulogises the conduct of
Colonel Lord West, of the 21st Foot, who as-
sumed the command of the left column after the
death of Major-General Sir J. Campbell ; of Lieut.-
Col. Warre, who succeeded to the command of the 57th
Regiment, on the death of Col. Shadforth ; of Lieut.-
Colonel Cole, commanding 17th Regiment and of
Captains Croker (who was killed), Gordon, M`Kinstry,
and O'Conor, and Lieutenant Thompson of the 17th
Regiment ; and Lieutenant Shad well Clerk e, of
the 21st Regiment ; and Colour-Serjeant Coleliffe and
Steant Pratt, of the 17th ; and C.lpta.in the B.on.
J. Stuart, and Lieutenants Baileau (who is severely
wounded) and Saerel:rs, of the Rifle Brigade.
Major-General R. Jones reports most favourably of
the services of the following officers of Engineeri :
Lieutenant-Colonel Gordon, Lieutenant-Colonel Chap-
man, Lieutenant-Colonel Tylden, Lieutenant Donnelly,
Lieutenant Fisher, and he deeply laments the loss of
Captain these, Lieutenant Graves, and Lieutenant
Murray,x
-- who fell upon the occasion.
I must express my obligations to Lieutenant-General
Sir R. England, Lieutenant-General Pennefather, Lieu-
tenant-General Bentinck, and Major-General Codringt.in
icr the able manner in which they conducted their
duties ; and I avail myself of the present opportunity to
inform your lordship that Lieutenant General Penne-
father, who was then labouring under illnef;s, is now in
so bad a state of heath as to be under the necessity
of withdrawing from the army. I shall deeply regret
his departure, entertaining the highest opinion of hire,
and knowing his devotion to her Majesty's service.
I must not omit to mention the following oflic3rs of
the Royal Navy, who particula,r!y distinguished them-
selves on the 18th :—Cantain Peel, who commanded the
whole of the sailors employed, and is severely wounded:
Messrs. Wood (severely wounded) and Daniel, who have
been through the whole siege ; Lieutenants Urmston
and Dalyell, who are both severely wounded ; and Mr.
Parsons, mate, who is wounded; Lieuts. Cave and Kidd,
both wounded, the latter mortally ; and Mr. Kennedy,
mate.

I enclose the returns of casualties from the 13th to the
I have, &c.,

21st.
