quarters and from the reserve of the 24 e,orpe. At
later hour, Intendant Paris de Bollardiere, who'lire°
ceeded to the spot with the divison of the Impili4
Guard, also caused the assistance which that di.vi. on
could afford to be employed in removing the welitillle&`—'::l
and in aiding in the hospital service. A"4 S
" Thanks to these measures, not a single wounded
French soldier remained on the field of battle
two hours after the combat ; and long before the
end of the -day all had been carried, in laying ambu-
lances, to the stationary establishments of the 2d corps
and of quarter-general, and had been there attended
to. The carrying off of the wounded Russians was more
difficult and more tedious, not only because the number
was so much more considerable, but because it was ne-
cessary to go and bring them in part from the right
Dank of the 'fchernaya, and under the fire of the enemy,
who, from motives impossible to conceive, never ceased
throwing shells on the ground, covered with their Qwn
killed and wounded, the whole time that our soldiers
were employed in carrying off these latter. That opera-
tion was not terminated until yesterday morning.
" The number of wounded carried to the ambulances
after this combat was 810 French, of whom 46 were
officers, and 1,664 Russians,.of whom 38 were officers,
forming a total of 2,474 men, added to the number,
already very considerable, of those in our ambulances.
"I have said above that the wounded French were
divided between the ambulances of the 2d corps and
those of head-quarters. Whatever might be our desire
to treat the Russians in the same manner amour own
soldiers, the encumberment of the ambulances rendered
•• do so. The officers were sent to head-
.;B others were divided amongst the dif-
- ambulances. For the rest, I was obliged to esta-
blish a temporary ambulance at Kamiesh, turning to
account the old wooden-house camp, erected there
during the winter for the newly-landed troops. Hospi-
tal attendants were furnished by the brigade, charged
with the works of fortification at Kamiesch. The me-
dical staff of the ambulance was very insufficient for so
long a task ; but Admiral Bruat, having been pleased
to place at my disposal twelve surgeons of the fleet, all
the dressings were effected rapidly, and yesterday, at
ten in the evening, not a single wounded man remained
without having been attended to. The administrative
service, and that of the pharmaceutical department are,
besides, insured by the permanent hospital established
at Kamiescb. Sub Intendant de Preval, having been
informed by the telegraph, had had this temporary
asy-
lum prepared in advance, and when the wounded ar-
rived at Kamiesch, they found there beds, drinks, and
broth ready for them.
"I am happy, M. le Marechal, in having a fresh occa-
sion to inform you how well I am satisfied with the
hospital service of the army. Every one has shown the
greatest zeal and intelligence, but I cannot too fre-
quently place before your Excellency the names of the
two principal heads of the service, M. de Seganrille,
sub-military intendant, and M. Scrive, physician-in-
chief to the army.
" To-day, the -lips and frigates of the squadron and
the steamers of tire administration will carry to 0 in-
.tantinople about 2,000 sick and wounded so that the
number of men in our hospitals will then be nearly the
same as before the battle.—l am, &c.,

The Dublin Freeman of Wednesday says :—" The
troop: at present encamped on the Curragh number
5,000, and we understand that a large extent of stabling
is being provided in the neighbourhood of Kildare, New-
bridge, and Kilcullen, for the purpose of concentrating
at least 2,000 horse for active field exercise. The troops
at present encamped comprise the 60th Rifles, the County
of Down, the Longforit, the Westmeath, the North
Cork, the County of Dublin, the County of Limerick,
and County of Clare Militia Regiments, in all about
5,000 men, exclusive of 250 officers. We also understand
that tent accommodation has been provided for 2,000
men, should it at any time be required. The foundations
of the Catholic and Protestant chapels have been laid.
Both these structures will be similar in size, and will
measure in length 100 feet by 60 in breadth, They are
to be of superior construction, and, although built of
wood, will possess some features of Gothic architecture.
The quarter erected for the Commander of the Forces
will be given up this or to-morrow by the contractors.
It has all the appearance of a beautiful villa, and its in-
ternal arrangements are in perfect accordance with ele-
gance and comfort. We regret that an occurrence took
place last Sunday which was likely to endanger the peace
of the entire camp. On the soldiers of the Clare Militia
returning from mass the band of the regiment were or-
dered to form and play before a small number of soldiers
—not more than 20—who were proceeding to the Pro-
testant place of worship at Newbridge. The Catholics
belonging to the band refused to move, and several of the
soldiers expressed their determination to break every in-
strument that should be played on the occasion. An at-
tempt was made by the adjutant and several of the officers
to enforce the order, but without success, and we under-
stand that the adjutant and some of the officers were as-
saulted by the soldiers, several of whom are in custody.
In consequence of this circumstance, orders have been
issued to the effect that no military music shall be per-
formed on the Sundays before any regiment in camp
while proceeding to any place of worship, A large num-
ber of the County of Limerick Militia arrived at the
camp by train from Buttevant at 3 o'clock yesterday.
They were met at the Curragh station by the bands of
the different regiments in camp, who played them in .
amid the cheers of the thousands of visitors present."

The men belongiTngHtEo tAhlelßLlTyallAborset Regiment of

its efficiency.
