(FRO➢i LAST EVENING'S GAZETTE.)
WAR DEPARTMENT, JAN. 8.
His Grace the Duke of Newcastle has this day received
a despatch, of which the following is a copy, addressed to
his Grace by Field-Marshal the Lord Raglan, G.C.B.
Before Sebastopol, Dec. 18.
My Lord Dnke,—Nothing has occurred since I had the
honour to address your Grace on the 13th inst.
The weather, which was then fine, changed on the fol-
lowing afternoon, and, from that time to the evening of
the 16th, it hardly ceased either to rain, hail, or snow.
The night of the 16th was particularly severe ; but it
cleared up yesterday, and to-day it is again dry.
The bad days above mentioned have, however, rendered
the communications more difficult, and materially retarded
the movement of supplies and stores.
The 89th and 17th Regiments have arrived from Gibral-
tar, and will take their place in the 3d and 4th Divisions
this day.
A considerable portion of the warm clothing has been
received, and is in course of issue; and the mon are most
grateful to her Majesty's Government for having provided
for them what conduces so essentially to their comfort.
I have the honour to transmit returns of the casualties
between the 11th and 16th.—I have, &c.,

RAGLAN.

His Grace the Duke of Newcastle, &c.

WAR DEPARTMENT, JAN. 9.
His Grace the Duke of Newcastle has, this day received
two despatches, of which the following are copies, ad-
dressed to his Grace by Field-Marshal the Lord Raglan,
G.C.B.

Before Sebastopol, Dec. 23,1854.
My Lord Duke,—A great deal of rain has fallen in the
last forty-eight hours, and the weather has again become
very inclement.

The only occurrence in the siege operations has been a
sortie made by the enemy on both our right and left at_
tack, during the night of the 20th, tho ono being conducted
silently, the other with drums beating, and shouting ; the
first being probably the real object of the advance, as
nearer to the Inkerman heights.

Owing to the extreme darkness of the night the enemy
were enabled to come very near the right attack without
being perceived, and having made a sudden rush upon the
most forward parallel, they compelled the men occupying
it to withdraw, until reinforced by' a party under Major
Welsford, of the 97th Regiment, when it was regained
possession of, and the Russians retired, not however with-
out occasioning some loss in both killed, wounded, and
missing, Lieutenant Byron, of the 34th Regiment, being
amongst the latter.

On the left attack, the enemy were met with great gal-
lantry by-Lieutenant Gordon, of the 38th Regiment, who,
when supported by the covering party of the trenches,
under Lieutenant-Colonel Waddy of the 50th, succeeded
in at once driving them back. But here too I regret to
say the loss was still more severe; Major Moller, of the
50th, fell mortally wounded, and I am concerned to add is
since dead, and Captain Frampton and Lieutenant Clarke,
both of the 50th Regiment, are missing. Sir Richard
Ragland opetas in high tams of thp g 4441417 and 'vigil'
