LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1354

The instructions issued to the troops befole
starting on the Expedition against the Crimea
have been duly published, and will be found :in
another part of this day's impression. TIP: y
appear to have been carefully and judicious:'y
framed, taking all necessary precautions for t tie
safe landing of the Allied Forces, and enabli-tig
them to carry out the great object in which they
are engaged.—the capture of Sebastopol, and - the
destruction or transfer to another flag of the
Russian Fleet, now skulking beneath its battet

resting document, the very commencement whereof
states that " the invasion of the Crimea" had been
determined upon. This invasion could have but
One object. Its destination is clearly the Russian
stronghold. Were it otherwise, it would only
lead to a very useless expenditure of human
and the total destruction of the characters of tho se

who had the control and management of the un

dertaking ; and we may rely on the distinguished
and gallant men engaged, that when once the
sword is fairly drawn, when the French and
English troops are pitted against the adversary,
there will no longer be any listlessness or apathy
perceptible. This is not the moment, then, to
complain of the inactivity that has heretofore pre-
. vailed, albeit it depressed the spirits and deci-
. mated the ranks of the Allied Armies, and although
it enabled the CZAR to make the most ener-
getic preparations for giving the assailants
a warm reception, and materially enhancing the
difficulties they Would
have to encounter and
overcome. The expedition would not, however,
have been undertaken
unless it appeared to the
experienced and gallant officers entrusted with the
charge that every impediment could be sur-
mounted, and the Union-jack

about seven or eight, the other fifteen, miles frOm
the town ; and it is understood that the ultimate
• choice will depend on the nature of the
opposition that may be offered at eith(r

lity. The time' allowed, after the intended
expedition was fully known, would enable the
Russians to throw up entrenchments, in order
to resist the first landing. But if, as we
•believe to be the fact, our heavy vessels of war
, can get to within a quarter of a mile of the beach,
