DESPATCH

FROM LORD RAGLAN.

Ls the f

Nov. 23rd:—

.h incon

t attacK,
tr troops

having t

in the Trenche
at the same tir

nd occasioned not a few casualties, an

me both by our own officers and by General Canroberi,
a detachment of the Ist battalion Rifle Bri&... •
Lieutenant Tryon, was directed, on the night of the k,
to dislodge the enemy ; and this service was performed
most gallantly and effectually, but at some loss both in:
killed and wounded, and at the cost of the life of Lieut.
Tryon, who rendered himself conspicuous on the occasion,

. ,
and who was considered a most promising officer, ana
held in the highest estimation by all. The Russians at-

lemselves on ti

tempted sever-al times to re-establish t
ground before daylight on the 21st, but they were
scantly repulsed by Lieut. Boarchier, the s

nior survi7

officer of the party, and it now remains in our possession
Brigadier-General Sir John Campbell speaks highly of th
conduct of the detachmant, and of Lieutenants Bourchie

and Cunninghame ; and he laments the death of Lieut.
Tryon, who so ably led them in the first instance. This
little exploit was so highly prized by General Canrobert,
that he instantly published a general order, announcing•
it to the French Army ; and combining with a just tribute
to the gallantry of the troops, the expression of his deep
sympathy in the regret felt for the loss of a young
officer of so much distinction.

"Nothing else has occurred since I had last the honour
of addressing your Grace. _ _ _

" The weather is again very bad, and steady rain con.
stantly falling. I enclose the nominal list of killed an&
wounded, at the battle of Inkerman, and a return of the
casualities that have occurred in the trenches, to the 20th
instant. A return of casualities from the 2nd to the 6th
of November, both days inclusive, and including the
Inkerman returns, showing a total of 43 officers, 37
_ _

sergeants, 4 drummers, 551 rank and file, killed. 10L
officers, 112 sergeants, 21 drummers, 1,690 rank and file,
wounded. 1 officer, 4 sergeants, 58 rank and file, missing:.
A return from the 7th to the 20th of November, both.
days inclusive, shows a total of 10 officers, 12 rank and.
file, killed. 1 sergeant, 40 rank and file, wounded. The
names of the non-commissioned officers and privates
wounded are given. The return of killed and wounded in
the Naval Brigade, from the 7th to the 13th November,
both days inclusive, shows 3 killed and 13 wounded."

In a despatch, dated November 28th, Lord Raglan reports
that, "on the night of the 22nd, and following morning-,
shortly before daylight, the Russians renewed their
endeavours to get possession of the ground they had been_
driven from, but they were repulsed on each occasion lit
the most spirited manner ; in the first instance, by a detach-
ment of 4th Foot, under Lieut. Patrick Robertson, and
a working party belonging to the 57th Regiment,—in the
last instance by the detachment of the 4th Foot alone..
There has been no movement of importanee on the part of
the enemy. The weather has been very bad, and the
camp and the country are, in consequence of the rain, in
a most unsatisfactory state. The men are, however, en-
deavouring, and with some success, to shelter themselves
with the stones that are found in the vicinity of the
encampment; and every effort is making to provide them_
with the materials for hutting themselves, but the condi-
tion of the roads renders this a matter of extreme
difficulty. _ . _ _

" It is gratifying to be able to assure you that, notwith-
standing their privations, their'exposure to the weather,
and the constant labour required of them, they exhibit
the same cheerfulness, the same ardour in the discharge of
their duty as they have manifested throughout the exten-
sive operations in which they have been engaged.

" The defences of the Inkeiman position,-nawithstand-
ing the frequent interruption from the weather, are mak-

ink considerable progress.

"Nominal return of officers wounded from the 21st to
the 26th November, both days inclusive :-Ist battalion
Rifle Brigade, Captain C. H. S. Churchill, slightly ; 24r
battalion, Lieutenant E. D. Morgan, slightly. Royal En-
gineers, C. S. Martin, dangerously.
" Nominal return of non-commissioned officers and men
killed and wounded, from the 21st to the 26th of Novem-
ber, both days inclusive :-6 privates killed, 1 sergeant,
3 corporals, 31 privates, wounded."

The Admiralty have received a report from Captain.
Carnegie, of the Tribune, stating that he, with the Tribune,
High-flyer, and Lynx, attacked a large Martello tower
which commands the coast road from Anapa to Kertsch,
on the coast of Circassia. They anchored at a distance of
900 yards from the beach, and opened a fire upon the
place, which in a short time compelled the garrison to
leave it. Some of the seamen and marines were imme-
diately landed, and completed the destruction of the
place by fire.
The tower, with two guns, ammunition, &c, was
blown up under the direction of Captain Moore, of the
Highflyer ; and in the performance of this service that
officer was slightly wounded, and Lieut. E. Smithett, of
the Tribune, severely wounded by the explosion.
The landing was effected without trouble, but the
surf rose with such rapidity that it was with difficulty the
boats were enabled to rejoin their ships.

The Times' Scutari correspondent gives the following
nominal return of deaths of officers, non-commissioned
officers, and privates, at the hospitals, from the 9th to the
25th Nov. Officers—Lieut. Houghton, 11th Hussars ;
Lieut.• Col. Smyth, 68th Regiment; Captain J. T. Wil—
liams, 2nd Dragoons. Serjeants-3 ; 1 corporal; 50 pri—
vates.

It is supposed in Paris that the details of the Anstriark
treaty will be made known to the British Parliament ma
Tuesday; and announced in Paris on the same day.

CAPE of GOOD HOPE.—The Gloriana brings dates to
October 20th. A very large mercantile failure had
occurred. There were prospects of disturbances on the
frontier.
