THE FRENCH ACCOUNT.
The Momiteur of Saturclay publish©s the follow.

ing letter from Constantinople, dated the 21st

ult. :-

"The establishment of the siege batteries, which was
much retarded by the nature of the ground, and annoyed
during the 14th and 16th by the enemy's fire, was not
completed until the evening of the 16th, except one bat-
tory of eight 50 pounders, intended to take the Quaran-
tine Battery in the rear. The number of-heavy guns in
position is about 250. ,The fire commenced at half-past
6 in the morning of the 17th, and was well kept up on

. _
both sides until 10 o'clock. Oa the morning'of the same
day the fleets, anchored part at Katcha and others off
the Bay of Kamiech, began to advance on the batteries
at the entrance of Sebastopol, the steam-frigates having
the sailing vessels in tow. The English squadron were
to fire on the north side and the French on the. south ,
and the Quarantine batteries. The French squadron
advanced under the fire of all the batteries, and was
in position at 1 o'clock, four three-deckers and three
steam-vessels forming the first line. The other vessels
forming the second line arrived in succession as well
as two Ottoman ships of the line. About half-past 2
the English squadron took up its position to the
north. The fire opened at 1 o'clock, and Was warmly
kept up on both' sides until 3 o'clock, when that •f the
Russian batteries gradually fell off. They afterwards
only fired occasional shots untilG o'clock, at the moment
when the squadrons, which for five hours had kept up a
warm and uninterrupted fire, resumed their former an-
chorage. The amok° during the combat and the night
which interrupted it prevented an exact judgment being
formed of the damage caused to the enemy. The French
siege batteries discontinued their fire about-110On on the
same day, in consequence of the explosion of a
powder magazine which damaged the batteries near
it. The English batteries continued theit fire, and
appeared to .profit by the diversion made by ruining
the works which were
,oppesed to them.
On the
morning. of the 18th the 'fire of all the siege", bat-,
tortes recommenced, and was 'continued during the
whole day, and caused several fires ia. the town ; ab
1 o'clock a Russian powder magazine blew up. General
Canrobert sent word on the 18th to Admiral Hamelin
that the bombardment of the previous day appeared to
have very much injured the Quarantine Battery, which
much impeded the Russian operations. The large forts
at the entrance, without being entirely demolished, are
much damaged."

A letter from Thetapia, of the 20th ult., in the
Aro4titeur, says
"You will hear from all sides that our sailors fought
valiantly ; every one did his duty, and in the most noble

manner. The Charlemagne arrived at her station the
first, and for half an hour supported Ellen° the fire of .all
the -Rdasian forts, returning their fire with a vigour
which was the admiration, of both squadrons. A. shell
burst on the stern of the Vile de Paris, and the poop
was knocked to pieces. , By a kind of miracle ;Admiral
Hamelin was not injured, but of his. four.Aides-de-
Camp, one, AI. Somnieiller, was and the others
were wounded, as well as several other persons who
were standing near. M. Bouet-Willaumez, the chief of
the staff, escaped as fortunately as the Admiral."
The Government received to-day the following
telegraph, addressed to Lord Westmoreland by the
British Consul-General at Varna ;
" VARNA, Oar. 28.
" On the 25th an imposing force suddenly attacked
three Turkish batteries near Balaklava, and carried
them by storm. The Turks retreated, after spiking
some of their guns. The Russian artillery and infantry
continuing to advance, our light brigade of cavalry
charged them, but sustained a considerable loss. The
regiment of Scots Greys, however, coming to their as-
sistance' with the sth Dragoons, the enemy was com-
pletely routed, and withdrew behind the batteries taken
from the Turks. The French took part in the affair
with admirable bravery. In the evening of the 26th the
Russians sallied out of Sebastopol, and attacked the
division of General Do Lacy Evans ; but in less than
half an hour they were repulsed, with a loss :of 1,000
men left on the field. The loss of the English in this
sad action consists of one officer killed, and a few men
wounded. The fire from the city had considerably.
slackened. The allies were fully confident of the proxi-
mate fall of Sebastopol."
The Courr•ier de Marseilles quotes the following,
under date Constantinople, the 20th ult.
The French steamer Ajaccio arrived this morning
from the Crimea with the mails from the armies and
fleets. The letters are of the 13th. The bombardment
of Sebastopol commenced on the 17th, at 6 o'clock a.m.,
by land, and at 1Q o'clock the combined fleet§ took part
