gRNERAL ORDER.

Soldiers,—Vhis has been a glorious day for you.
A great part of the Russian army, favoured by night
and mist, succeeding in establishing themselves with a
powerful force of artillery on the heights which form
the extreme right of oar position. Two divisions of the
English force sustained with that immovable censtanay
which we know so well is the characteristic of our Allies
the unequal combat, until a part of the division Bosquet
led by its worthy commander, together with the horse
artillery, came to their support, ani threw themselves
upon the enemy with a degree of skill and boldness
to which I amt anxious hero to render the fullest
testimony.

Driven back at last into the valley of the Tchernaya,
the enemy left upon the ground more than 4,000 killed
or wounded, having carried off as great a number during
the continuance of the contest.
Whilst these events were taking place, the garrison of
Sebastopol made a sortie on our left, which gave an
opportunity to the besiegers, and particularly to the 4th
Division, handled with great energy by General Forey
to give the enemy a severe lesson. The troops called
upon to repulse the sortie gave proofs of an energy
which adds in no email degree to the glory whizh they
have already earned by the constancy with which they
have supported the rough but heroic, labours of the
siege.
I could name whole divisions, soldiers of all arms,
and of all ranks who have distinguished themselves highly
this day. I shall make them known to France, the Em-
peror, and the army. But my intention to day was to
thank you in their name, and to assure you that you
have just added a great page to the history of this dafi•
cult campaign.

PRINCE MENSCRIKOFF'S ACCOUNT OF

THE BATTLE.

Michael Nicholaievitch were in the midst of this terrible
fire, setting an example of calm courage in the fight.
" Simultaneously with this sortie the infantry regi-
ment of Mink, with a light battery of Artillery, under
tho command of the Major-General of Artillery Timo-
feiff, executed another sortie against the French bat-
teries, and spiked 15 of their guns.
"Our loss in dead is not yet exactly known, but the
number of the wounded amounts to 3,500 men and 109
officers. Among the latter there are Lieutenant-aene-
ral Soimonoff, shot through the body, and who soon
sank beneath the effects of his wound ; the Major-Gee
nerals Villebois and Ochterlone ; the. Colonel Alexan-
droff, commanding the infantry regiment of Catherine-
bourg ; Poustovoitoff, commanding the infantry regi-
ment of Tomsk ; Bibitoff, commanding the Okhotsk
chasseurs ; Baron Delwig, commanding the infantry
regiment of Vladimir ; and Vdreuvkine-Scheluta 11.,
commanding the regiment of Borodino chasseurs.
" Major-General Kischinsky, chief of the artillery,
received a contusion from the splinter of a bomb ; Major-
General Prince Menschikoff, in the suite of your Impe-
rial Majesty, was hurt in the neck ; Colonel Albedinsky,
the Aide-de-camp of your Imperial Majesty, and the
cavalry captain Greigh, my Aide-de-camp, was struck
on the heath
" General Dannenberg bad two horses killed under
him, and all the persons surrounding him were wounded.
" The loss of the enemy cannot have been less con-
siderable either, and the sortie of General Timofeseff
cost the French dear, far, whilst pursuing him with
dense masses, they fell under a heavy fire of grape from
the ba,tion No. 6.
" While these move Tents were going on, the troops
placed under the command of Prince Gortechakoff exe-
cuted a strong dern3nstration against IS adykol, and
thus kept the enemy's detachment at Balaklava in a
state of inaction."

* A part of the troops passed over the bridge of luker-
man.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(TILIS DAY.)

QUEEN'S BENCH.
THE QUEEN V. LLOYD.

Sir F. Thesiger applied for a rule to tax the costs in
this case against the recognisances. It was a prosecu-
tion for perjury, preferred by the treasurer and trustees
of the Bristol Infirmary against a gentleman named
Lloyd, who had misappropriated some bequests which
had been left to the charity. He afterwards became a
bankrupt, and the perjury was committed in the course
of his examination on the bankruptcy proceedings. The
case was emmoved by certiorari into this court, and was
tried last tome, when the defendant was found guilty,
but sentence ‘Tas deferred until the present sittings. in
the meanwhile,, however, the defendant had died, and
the prosecutors n ow sought to enforce their costs again, t
his bail.
Application granted.
