THE CAPTURE OF KINBOURN.
(From the InvalUle Russe.)

The following telegraphic despatch from Nico-
laieff has been forwarded to St. Petersburg, by
order of the Emperor, dated the 17th October :
" From the position of the fortress of Kin-
bourn, which stands on the extreme point of
the tongue of land of the same name on the left
bank of the lirnau of the Dnieper, the comtnuni-
cation between it and the Nicolaieff was through
OczakoLf only. It was maintained by oared
barges, and the optic marine telegraph established
at Oczakoff. On the appearance of the enemies'
ships before Kinbourn the direct communication
was cut off.

" From the intelligence received by this tele-
graph the day before yesterday, yesterday, and
to-day, we learn the following :—The fortress of
Kiubourn, after having sustained (on the 15th) a
heavy cannonade front the enemy's gun-boats,
floating batteries, and steam-frigates, replied by
a quick and well-directed fire from its guns. At
the fall of night the fire ceased on bath sides.
"Yesterday (16th) it was resumed and continued
throughout the day, but was not so heavy. This
morning (17th), at 9 o'clock, 11 steam-frigates
and a ship of the line of 90 guns reinforced the
enemy's flotilla, and the whole of the ships simul-
taneously commenced a most violent vertical and
horizontal fire on the place.
" This feu d'enfer continued till half-past two
in the afternoon, when the fortress, in the interior
of which all the buildings were in flames, ceased
to fire, and the enemy ceased firing also.
" At 3 o'clock, two boats, with a flag of truce,
approached the fort. Half an hour afterwards,
the enemy's troops, a part of the land force that
had been disembarked, entered the place. The
vessels anchored inside the point moved to the
Oczakoff side, and towards the Nicholas battery
on the opposite bank, but up to this evening they
had not opened their fire."
