DESPATCH FROM THE
, CRIMEA

(Prom a Supplement to Friday's Gazette.)
WAR DEPARTMENT, SEPT. 5.

Lord Panmure has this day received a despatch and
its enclosures, of which the following are copies, ad-
dressed to his lordship by General Simpson.
BEFORE SEBASTOPOL, AUG. 25.

My Lord,—Having been engaged since daylight in a
careful observation of the "position in front of Balaklava,
I am unable to address your lordship at any length
this day.
The enemy have been concentrating troops at the
Mackenzie, Tasova, and Baralee, their left extending as
far as the village of Makoul, and are supposed to have
received considerable reinforcements, which probably
consist of two divisions of Grenadiers, which have been
conveyed in carts from Bakshiserai and Simpheropol.
The bridge across the Great Harbour is nearly com-
pleted, and large bodies of men are employed in erecting
earthworks on the north side of the harbour. Intrench-
ments have been thrown up on the Sievernaya Hill, ex-
tending from the sea coast to the site of the first light-
house, facing the north.
From various sources we learn that the Russians on
the right bank of the Tchernaya are held in perfect readi-
ness for an offensive movement.

Our siege operations progress steadily, with I regret
to say heavy casualties on our side, as your lordship will
see by the accompanying lists. —I have, &c.,
JAMES SIMPSON,
General Commanding.
The Lord Panmure, &c. &c. &c.
