rest Of their columns.
| In his despatch of the eed. the count de Bour-
mont states the loss he sustained on the 18th, at
"A in the first division. and IS in the second; in
wounded, S41 in the first, and / ~ IN the sec
ond, and 10 in the artillery. The amount OF the
barbaric force opposed on that occasion Is variousy
stated and must be guesswork. Some accounts
says 10000 Bedouins and 10000 Arabs, and
others are more exaggerated. IL by Turks, reg
ular soldiery is meant, there could not be so ma
ny mustered. if all were withdrawn from Algiers
itself. It will be seen that one OF the sons OF
General Bournont was dangerously wounded.-
Such is the generous character OF the French ma
ton. that the badinage we have read IN their pa
pels about the General and his four sons will be
regretted, should the young man be seriously
injured by his chivary.

of the success achieved by our army over the en-
envy, our troops occupied the positions which
were taken, two small leagues from the peninsu-
la, and about half way between Zorro Checa and
Algiers. The troops only wait to advance for
the cavalry any provision, which ought to arrive
by the two divisions Of convoy. They left on the
18th and are now in sight. For eight days past
the winds have been adverse, from the west, and
the strong tides prevent their approach. The dl-
vision of Count Admiral Rosamel, in concert
with the division blockading Algiers, form at
few leagues in the offing, line Of cruisers which

The following are extracts from the latest de-
spatch of Count Bourmont:
"Since the battle of the 10Th, the enemy show
only few scattered detachments. 1t appears

the army. if the artillery horses and those OF the
troops d'aaminiskation had been landed. The
vessels in which thev embarked were to have lett
the bay of Palma on the 18th. Southwest winds
kept them there till the 18th. Since then, al
most constant Gains have prevailed. and they
have not yet arrived in sight. Notwithstanding
this unexpected delay, the transportation OF the
sieging materials has commenced.
Since the 10Th, the troops have not changed
their position. Stsonei and Sid Khalif, the
position of which the maps indicate, are not 10 be
compared to the habitable parts Of Europe. No
buildings are to be found. 1t is probable that,
attracted by the springs which are there found,
and the excellent quality of the waters. the Arabs
frequently pitched tents there. and that this cir
cumstance alone has attracted The attention of
travellers and geographers. We at first suPpos-
