( From a Supplement to Friday's Gazette.)
WAR-DEPARTMENT, APRIL 14.
Lord Panmure 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.

From the evidence it appeared that shortly after
twelve o'clock to-day the prisoner entered the shop of
Mr. Steers, and asked for a concertina he had left to Le
repaired. Mrs. Steers gave him the instrument, and
told him the charge was eightpence. He gave her six-
pence and two penny pieces in payment, but she imme-
diately discovered that the sixpence was counterfeit.
The prisoner put the sixpence in his moutb, and then
tendered a good shilling, and said he did not think the
sixpence was a bad one, upon which Mr. Steers came
into the shop and closed the door. The prisoner tried to
leave the shop, to prevent which the prosecutor strug-
gled with him, and after the scuffle, a policeman having
arrived, 43 sixpences and 20 shillings, all counterfeit,
were found on the floor.

Before Sebastopol, March 31, 1855.

•
My Lord,—Since I wrote to your lordship, on the
27th instant, the operations of the siege have hymn con-
tinued, without any material interruption from the
enemy beyond occasional shots from guns
./nd mortars,
and the more constant firing of musketry from rifle-pits,
which have occasioned, I regret to say, the casualties
which your lordship will see in the peturns I enclose.
Captain A. E. Hill, of the 87( Regiment, whom I
mentioned in my despatch, N . 222, as having been
severely wounded and taken prisoner, died, I regret to
say, of his wounds before he reached the Russian ambu-
lance, as I learnt last night from General Osten-Sacken,
to whom I had written for information on the subject.
He had gone forward with a view to place the sentries
in front of our advanced works, as I stated to your lord-
ship on Tuesday, and he, unfortunately, mistook a Rus-
sian for a French picquet, and, having challenged it in
French, he was immediately fired upon, and brought to
the ground.
Early yesterday morning a fire was observed in the
town of Sebastopol, which raged with violence for a con-
siderable time, but how it originated I have not been
able to ascertain.

The prisoner, in answer to questions from the magis-
trate, declined to give his address, but said he worked
for Mr. Quantock, a bootrnaker, in Hollis•etreet, Clare-
market, and the reason he was not at work that morn-
ing was that business was slack—he having finished his
job last night.
Mr. Henry ordered the gaoler to look at his hands,
but there was not the slightest trace of boot or shoe-
making to be found, for which circumstance the pri-
soner accounted by saying that last night he washed his
hands with soda.

Mr. Henry—Since you decline to give your address
I must order the police to make inquiries about you,
and try and find out your residence, for which purpose
I shall remand you for a week.

The enemy has made no movement on the side of the
Tchernaya.
The railway continues to progress in the most satis-
factory manner, and last night had nearly reached the
top of the hill, usually called the Col de Balaklava, and
advantage has been taken of it to bring up large gum
titles of ammunition and stores.—l have, &c.,
The Lord Panmure, &c. &c.

Prisoner—But if I give my address ?
Mr. Henry—Then the remand will be for a shorter

period.

The prisoner, after a deal of hesitation, during which
the neagistra,te observed he took a long. while to recollect
where he lived, he said he residedtat 25, Charlton street,
goners-town.
