day. The sick were sent down from the camp to Balak-
lava, under charge of a medical officer of the division to
which they respectively beloi;ged ; but on their arrival
there it was found that no nreparation4 had been made
far their reception. The Commander of the Forces is
aware that Deputy Inspector General of Hospitals, Dr.
Dumbreck, gave the necessary order verbally to the
staff medical officer at Balaklava ; but that officer
neglected to inform his superior, and the consequence
was that the sick, many of them in a very suffering
state, remained in the streets for several hours, ex-
posed to very inclement weather. The name of the
officer who was guilty of this gross neglect is known
to the Commander of the Forces. He will not now
publish it, but he warns him to be careful in future,
and to be cautions how he again exposes himself to
censure. Dr. Dumbreck will, on future occasions
of importance, give his orders in writing, addressed to
the responsible officer. When a convoy of sick is sent
from the camp either to the hospital, or to be placed on
board ship, it is henceforward to be accompanied not
only by a medical officer, but likewise by-Deputy 'As-
Eistant Quartermaster General of the division, who will

precede it to the place of deposit, and take such steps as
pray ensure the dua reception aqd care of the men con
faded to his charge.

THE WAR ON THE DANUBE.
The Journal de Franefort has the following
from Vienna, dated the 22d :—" The entrance of
Omer Pacha into Bessarabia has been retarded, it
is said, principally on account of the fact that the
Dobrudscha, is still occupied by considerable Rus-
sian forces, which can without doubt only be driven:
from their positioa by force. Omer Pacha is be-
sides taking measures to arrive at that result."
The Press of Vienna, under its Gallicia head of
the 13th, says :—" Travellers who arrive from
Russia state that the troops stationed on our fron-
tier, an I, in particular, the cavalry and artillery,
received orders some days back to leave their
winter quarters, and proceed by forced marches to
New Russia. The feeling of the army, and parti.
cularly of the officers of the corps which was near
our frontiers, is far from being favourable. Fears
are begun to felt of the issue of the struggle. The
orthodox Russians, formerly so enthusiastic, are
beginning to have infinitely less confidence in the
infallibility of the Czar."

THE RUSSIAN POSITION.
A letter from Hi-rmanstadt dated the 22d, in
the Moniteur, says :—" The advanced guard of the
Ottoman troops at Ibrail, under the orders of Sadyk
Paella, was on the 16th composed of nine battalions
of infantry, three batteries of artillery, and thirteen
squadrons of cavalry, in all about 7,000 men and 24
pieces of artillery. The Russian advanced posts are
still at Matehiu, Isaktcha, Babadagh and Tultcha ;
the division of General Outchakoff with four regi-
ments of Cossacks, and Generals Lud ers and Sutanoff,
with a division of infantry and two regiments of
cavalry, occupy Ismail Kilia. General Engelhard
is established at Reni and Vadoul Isaki with a
division of infantry and a regiment of Hussars.
General Dannenberg was at Belgrade, near Ismail,
with 20,000 men of the fourth corps. The remain-
der of that corps d'armie is stationed along the
banks of the Pruth. Iu all there are 65,000 men
in Bessarabia and 180 pieces of cannon. Prince
Gortschakoff has his head-quarters at Kicheneff."
