MR. WILLERT BEALE begs to announce
that he has entered into an arrangement
with Mr. W. H. RUSSELL, the Special Correspondent of
the "Times" with the British Army in the Crimea, for the
delivery of a PERSONAL NARRATIVE of the GREAT
CAMPAIGN of 1854-55-56. The scenes and operations of
which Mr. Russell was a spectator comprise every event of
importance, from the departure of the army to the evacuation
of the Crimea, including—The Battle of Alma, the Bombard.
ment, the Battle of Balaclava, the Battle of Inkermau, the
Winter Sorties, the Trenches, Death in the Camp, the Expe-
dition to Kertch, the Assault of the 15th of June, the Battle
of the Tchernaya, the Final Assault, and the Fall of Sebasto-
pol.
Amid the scenes of daily excitement in which he was placed,
obliged, as the correspondent of a great public journal, to
record at the instant his impressions o the more momentous
events around him, Mr. Russell was compelled to leave un-
noticed many circumstances which appeared of insignificance
when they occurred, but which subsequent experience showed
to be of great interest. He had no time to describe the little
world in which he lived, or the actors who moved in it ; but
be has now the oppo tunity of recalling more minutely the
particulars of all he saw and heard, to sketch as it were the
private life and interior economy of the armies, and of the
camp, and to enter upon the description of subjects which,
during the war, it would have been injudicious ana impolitic
to have communicated to the world.

The Narrative will consist of Three distinct Parts, and will
be delivered at WILLIS'S ROOMS on
Part I. MONDAY EVENING, May 11.
Part 11. THURSDAY EVENING, May 14.
Part 111. SATURDAY EVENING, May 16.
