ka. Osman Pasha, will all the remaining troops,
moved on Sunday, the 21st inst., down to Ka-
miesch, and all of them will probably leave before
the end of the week. There are, only about 2,000
infantry, a battery of artillery, and 3,000 cavalry
remaining for embarkation, which, as a number of
vessels are expected back from Suchum-Kaleh, will
not require much time. The place which the
Turks occupied will be now taken partly by Eng-
lish and partly by French troops: As long as the
French hold their position on the heights of Baidar,
the gorge of Vanutka and the lower road leading
to it from Katnara are of minor importance, and
can be guarded by a comparatively small force.
The Ist Royals and the 71st, from Kertch, aro
destined for the purpose. The latter has not yet
arrived, but the former has already in part taken
up its position, and large fatigue parties aro busy
in carrying up the huts from the depot near the
Highland camp at Kamara.
The position at the ford of Alsu will be occupied i
now by French. As it seems tho intention to
guard the heights above Baidar, this position will
be connected by Alsu with the rest of our line on
the Tchernaya.
Yesterday the first reinforcements for the Sar-
dinian army arrived at Balaklava. Each battalion
is to receive 100 men, which will raise the Sar-
dinian Contingent to more than its original
strength. As more than 3,000 men are being sent
out, the Sardinian army will be stronger than
before.
