PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.
The Minister of War has received despatches
from Pera, of the 18th, transmitting accounts from
the General-in-Chief of the army of the East, of the
:--" The enemy, beaten at Taker-
ml3atrth:
and
dhwey sahosey
losses were more considerable than
General Canrobert had at first announced, had not
since disturbed the siege operations, which con-
tinued as before. The weather had become bois-
terous, but the health of the troops was good, and
their spirit admirable. Reinforcements were be-
ginning to arrive; a number of men had already
landed both from Africa and France. 1,800 men
of the advanced guard of General Mayrau landed
on the 13th."
A letter from Pere, of tko 14th, in the Moniteur,
says :--
" At the date of the 11th the siege of Sebastopol con-
tinued without any particular incident, and the Russian
army had not attempted to resume tho offensive. Exact
information which had reached head-quarters states that
tha losses of the army on the sth were 15,000 men killed
and wounded. Tho Allied troops had buried 5,0)0 Russians
who wore found dead on the field of battle. English,
French, and Turkish reinforcements had arrived on the Bth
to the number of several thousand men, and others were
following without interruption." " This despatch," adds
the Moniteur, " confirms the numbers given by Lord
Raglan in his report to the English Government as regards
the losses of the enemy. Information which has reached
us from other quarters also justifies the assertion of tho

illustrious Commander-in-Chief of the allied army, when
.offeru ncarsatpoa,

416th, says :

opoi since tee sth. With the exception of the
fire of the batteries, the operations had been
suspended."
We have received intelligence to-day from Con-
stantinople to the 20th, rid Trieste. The tele-
graphic despatch from the latter place, which is
dated this day, the 2Sth, states that a great por-
tion of the allied fleets were expected in the Boa-
phorus. Prince Napoleon was still at Constanti-
nople. From the 10th to the 20th, 15,000 soldiers
of the three Allied Powers started for the Crimea.
The English and French armies continue establish-
ing an entrenched camp, in which they are plac-
ing guns, whilst maintaining the greatest number
of the batteries. The belief still exists that 30,000
men of Omer Pacha's army will be sent to the
Crimea. There appears to be no doubt that the
tempest of the 14th, in addition to the loss of the
Henri IV., damaged the Retribution and the Na-
poleon. Mustapha Pacha and Kurchid Pacha
have been summoned to Constantinople to answer
for their conduct in Asia. News from Damascus
has been received to November 9. The good
relations of the Turkish authorities with Persia
continue. The same telegraphic despatch states
that the mail from Greece brings letters from
Athens to the 24th. It announces that a modifi-
cation in the Ministry has taken place, in the
sense of General Kalergi's opinions. Bands of
brigands still infest Greece. One band attacked a
village near Athens, and applied the torture to
some monks there. Another attempt was foiled
only by a general arming of the population.
The Henri IT., mentioned above, had been only
a few years afloat, and was built at Cherbourg,
where she was placed on the stocks in 1829. The
Pluton, which was also lost at the same time, was
a steam-corvette of 220-horse power. The Henri
IV. was lost on the coast of Eupatoria.
The following telegraphic despatches have been
received :

" Marseilles, Nov. 27.—The Charlemagne and the steam
frigates Sane and Infernal have arrived from the Crimea
at Toulon. Three large steamers—the Alps, Thames, and
Ripon—have also reached Toulon from England. Three
ships of the line and eight frigates or steamers are at the
same port, awaiting ,more favourable weather to embark
troops. Three merchant steamers sailed two days ago. The
Emeu sails to-morrow. All these vessels will carry troops.
General do Montebello embarked yesterday."
" St. Petersburg, Nov. 26.
" A despatch from Prince Menschikoff, dated the 18th,
in the evening, states that the tempest which swept over
the Black Sea on the 14th inflicted greater injuries on the
allied fleets than was at first supposed. The number of
transports thrown on the coast was about 25. Some yes
eels of war had also suffered considerably. The same de-
spatch, which is given under all reserve, announces that
the works of the siege. were less active, and that the can-
nonade had gradually slackened, till it almost ceased on
the 18th."
