THE BATTLE OF INKERMANy.-By g confession
made by the writer of "The Story of the Campaign
publishing in Blackwoods Magazine, and himself an
officer Of Artillery, serving in the Crimea, piece
of good fortune actually saved the British from
complete destruction at the battle of Inkermann
There was a moment, he says, in the progress of
the battle, when the right of the English position
twas absolutely without defence, and the enemy,
by advancing resouely, must have turned ii, but,
from some panic, or some other cause, they torts.
aGtely retired instead OF advancing" Before the
Russians returned to the attack, the routed regi-
ments were rallied, fresh troops were brought up,
and a French division came up. and, throwing
themselves into the combat, pressed the Russians
back Upon this, the N. Y. Sun says
Had the Russians succeeded in turning the Eng
fish highland we are told it was once in their
power--the great object for which the battle was
fought on the Russian side would, most probably.
have been gained. The writer in Blsckwood says:
"Our position once penetrated, the plains sfor-
ded ample space for the deployment of the columns
which might then attack in succession the different
corps of the allied army scattered on the plateau at
intervals too wide for mutual and concerted de-
fence
