AVIS KILLED.
Describing the storming Of Russian redoubt by
the French the London Times says editorially

allied generals still fixed the prosecution of the siege
by of a bombardment followed by assault
Two experimental attacks have been made by the
French in two different ways, which show that
Is not easy TO gain advantage interchangeable
antagonist II appears from both the Russian and French
reports that in the night of the 2st Of February the Rus
succeeded in throwing with
redoubt on the right bank Of The careening harbor
Within forty-eght hours General Canroheri resolved
to force the position and the attack made before
the work had been completed large body of French
troops under General Monet advanced In the nigh, OF the
23d against the redoubt The zouayes rushed upon the
intrenchmeuts with the bravery aud sangunary
ensued which cost nearly 500 OF these admirable
soldiers
The Russian infantry regiments selenghnski aud
Nylbyna, under Gen krouschoh defended the work with
great seadiness and after combat the French
column compelled 10 retreat This unfortunate
has been attributed to several cause.-the disclosure By
spies of the French plan OF attack the fire OF the Russian
vessels Ia the harbor and from the surrounding forts and
want of steadness on the part Of one portion Of tho
saants who said 70 have left the Zouaves to bear tho
We are unable to determine with certainty what amount
of truth there may be in these statements, but is
doubleday that the Russians appear TO have expected
the attack and had occupied the position with small
army rather than with detachment in proportion to It's
extent On the side of the French the force consisted Of
only half brigade of Zouaves, 1000 strong, two battal
less than $500
The Russians were 10000 strong and the unfortunate
zouaves fell into q regular ambaseade. Nevertheless
such the dauntcss vigor of these troops that they
sormed the redoubt and held Onchalf Of IL against fearful
odds, when the Russians succeeded 10 oatankng the coll

driven back in all directions and the latter complete

A second time they succeeded by sheer hand-o-hand
lighting In completing the capture OF the cdonh but no
sooner had the Russian infantry fallen back than the bat
teres and ships opened terrific fire upon the work and
rendered II completely untcnable. II not I'LL then

deted retreat and though the night was disastrous from
the loss of many hundred lives and the ninre OF the che
