OFFICIAL DESPATCHES MOM FIELD-
MARSHAL LORD RAGLAN.

(From a suppTealent to Tuesda?'s Gazelle.)
WAR-DEPARTMENT, APRIL 6.

Lord Panmure has this day received a, despatch and its
enclosures, of which the following are topics, addressed to
his Lordship by Field-Marshal the Lord Raglan, G.C.B.:—
Before Sebastopol, March 24, 1855.
My Lord,—On the morning of the 22d the French
troops in the advanced parallel moved forward, and
drove the enemy out of the rifle pits in their immediate
front, but nothing of any importance occurred during
the day.
Early in the night, however, a serious attack was
made upon the works of our Allies b front of the Vic-
toria redoubt, opposite the Malakoff tower.
The night was very dark, and the wind so high, that
the firing which took place, and which was very heavy,
o,uldscarcely he heard in the British camp; it is therefore
difficult to speak with certainty of what occurred from
any thing that could be heard or observed at the
moment.
It appears, however, that the Russians, after attack-
ing the head of the sap which the French are carrying
on towards the Mamelon, fell with two heavy masses on
their new parallel, to the rear of which they succeeded
in penetrating and momentarily possessing themselves
of, after a gallant resistance on the part of our Allies.
Having broken through, they passed along the pa-
rallel and in rear of it, until they came in contact with
the troops stationed in our advanced parallel extending
into the ravine, from the right of our advance, where it
connects with the French trench.
The enemy was here met by detachments of the 77th
and 97th Regiments, forming part of the guard of the
trenches, who, although thus taken suddenly both in
flank and rear, behaved with the utmost gallantry and
coolness.

vv
The detachments of the 97th, which was on the ex-
treme right, and which consequently first came in con-
tact with the enemy, repulsed the attack at the point of
the bayonet.
They were led by Captain Vicars, who unfortunately
lost his life on the occasion ; and I am assured that
nothing could be more distinguished than the gallantry
and good example which he set to the detachment under
his command.

The conduct of the detachment of the 77th was
equally distinguished ; and the firmness and prompti-
tude with which the attack, in this part of our works,
was met, were in the highest degree creditable to that

regiment.
The troops were under the direction of Major Gordon,
of the Royal Engineers, who was wounded on the occa-
sion so severely, as for some time, I fear, to deprive
the army of the benefit of his valuable services.
The attention of the troops in our advanced works
having been by these transactions drawn to the right,
the enemy took occasion to move upon, and succeeded
in penetrating into the left front of our right attack,
near the battery where two 10-inch mortars have re-
cently been placed. They advanced along the works
until they were met by a detachment of the 7th and
34th regiments, which bad been at work in the neigh-
bourhood, under the direction of Lieutenant-Colonel
Tylden, of the Royal Engineers, who promptly made them
stand to their arms, and led them with the greatest
determination and steadiness against the enemy, who
were speedily ejected from the works and fairly pitched
over the parapet, with but little or no firing on our part.
Lieutenant-Colonel Tylden speaks in the highest terms
of the conduct of the troops on this occasion, and par-
ticularly of that of Lieutenant Marsh, Acting-Adjutant
of the 33d Regiment, whose services and activity
throughout the night were very useful to him.
Captain the Hon. Cavendish Browne, of the 7th, and
Lieut. Jordan, of the 34th Regiment, were unfortunately
killed in this attack, after displaying the most distin-
guished gallantry, and Lieut. M'Henry of the former
regiment was wounded, but I hope not very severely.
Lieut.-Col. Kelly, of the 34th Regiment, who commanded
in the trenches, is, I regret to have to wid, missing.
The French, in retiring from their advanced parallel
upon their supports, speedily rallied, and fell upon the
enemy. whom they repulsed with great loss, and followed
so far up to wards the Mamelon, that they were enabled
to level and destroy nearly all the " ambuscades " or
" rifle concealments" erected along their front.

ffear, h ,wever, that this cess has not been ac-
complished without con,iderable loss on their part, al-
though that of the enemy is much greater.
Yesterday the whole of the ground between the posts
of the two armies was covered with their dead, amount-
ing to several hundreds, besides tho'e which they had
undoubtedly carried off before daylight.
In the meanwhile the enemy in great numbers found
their way into the advanced batteries on our extreme
left, which are not yet armed, and momentarily get posi-
session of them.

The working parties were, however, speedily collected
and reformed by Captain Chapman, of the 20th Regi-
ment, Acting-Engineer, and they at once drove the
enemy out of the trenches with the utmost gallantry.
Captain Montague, of the Royal Engineers, who was
superintending the works, unfortunately fell into the
hands of the enemy.
I enclose the return of casualties to the 22d, inclusive.
The wind is excessively high, but the weather is in
other respects fine.—l have, &c.,

TRE NIAGARA SUSPENSION BRIDGE.

A correspondent of the New York Daily Times
gives the following description of this bridge, over
which the first train passed on the 18th March :
The great work of the age is completed. A suspension
railroad bridge across the Niagara river is no longer a
question of doubt, but a matter of-fact. What had been
pronounced by some of the most eminent engineers in
the world both impossible and impracticable has now
proved possible and highly practicable. It is no longer
a.chimera, but a reality, whose future promises benefits
of inestimable value. The success of the work, though
some days since deemed certain by the passage of loco-

motives from the Canada to the American shore, was
not fully established until the 18th inst., when its
powers were put to a test, demonstrating beyond dis-
pute, and in a manner calculated to remove all doubt
from the most sceptical mind, its capability of support-
ing any weight which it will ever be required to bear.
