OFFICIAL DESPATCHES FROM BEAR-
ADMIRAL DUNDAS.

ADMIRALTY, JULY 16.
Despatches, of which the following are copies or extracts,
have been this day received from Rear-Admiral the Hon. R.
S. Dundas, Commander-in-Chief of her Majesty's ships and
vessels in the Baltic.
Duke of Wellington,
Tolboukin Lighthouse, July' 7, 1855.
" The Magicienne returned this morning from Lovisa,
and I annex a report which I have received from Captain
Yelverton, of her Majesty's ship Arrogant, who has
been again successful in destroying a well- constructed fort at
Svartholm, in tho entrance of the Bay of Lovisa, but their
lordships will observe -with regret, that, notwithstanding
the humane desire of that officer, the town of Lovisa was un-
fortunately destroyed by fire, which occurred accidentally on
the night following the visit of her Majesty's ships. Captain
Vansittart informs me that the authorities of the town have
themselves admitted and explained the accidental origin of
the fire."

Her Majesty's sh• ip Arrogant, Off Hoaland
July 8, 1855,

Sir,—l have the honour to inform you that I reached
Lovisa on the afternoon of the 4th instant, and anchored the
vessels close to Fort Svartholm.
The enemy must have had intelligence of our movements
and quitted the fort on our approach, for they had been at
work but a few days before unroofing the barracks and taking
away stores. The guns and ammunition had been previously
removed.
Svartholm was in good condition, and a work of great
anidm
cyaseaeinl'ated barracks for
strength, entirely commanding the approaches to Lovisa ; it
has had
can mount 122
guns,
about 1,000 men, with governor's house and garden, and ex-
cellent officers' quarters. I made immediate arrangements
phoaidianact3aodmdmitniodnastionfn lainte
for blowing up the fort and completely destroying the bar-
racks ; these have since been fully carried out.
On the sth, I made a reconnaissance of the tovk of Lovisa,
in the Ruby, accompanied by the boats of the Arrogant and
Magicienne. A strong detachment of Cossacks made their
appearance at one time, but they were dispersed by the fire
from the boats, the rockets particularly throwing them
into great confusion. On landing at Lovisa., they sent for
the authorities and explained the object of my visit; same
demur was caused by our not having a flag of truce. I told
