A Cool arithmetic Calculation London
Times upon the supposi,ion that the Russians loss
of two to one in the Crimea, makes the following
calculation in its notice OF the battle of Balaca
va:
ave may suppose,-and it is neither an i'm
probable nor an agreeable supposiion-that the
loss of the two sides was in much the same ratio
as at the title of the Alma. that is two TO one
in our favor. At this rate. in about a week we
should loose five thousand TO ten thousand of the
enemy, and in two months time should achieve
the destruction of 10000 Russians, at the cost of
the whole allied army There is nothing al all
out of the way in this calculation. when it is con.
sidered that we have TO throw into our losses
the constant drain of sickness As matter of
fact this is, and always has been, the Russians
mode of war fare. The power mancipis Occupies,
egens aeris always have been lavish of life, and rea
dy to pay two of its for one of the foe The
arterymen who turned their guns on the melee
OF British and Russian cavalry on the 25th, acted
on the customary calculation that Russian dra-
COON counted for nothing when there was an OBJ.
portunity of destroying British ore Whenever
then, the enemy can attack US with a reasonable
hope OF losing only two to our one we may de
pend upon it that he will, and that the Emperor
will hail u as vict tory US. He will not
grndse two Borodinos 10 destroy the two invading
armies. When such is the calculation evidently
acted upon and the result answers 70 it, what is
it but question of suppIya All things consider
ed, we really cannot expect TO continue always
killing and wonndng two Russians to our one;
al least we cannot hope TO do than this;
may do less. But. at all events if the contest
goes on al the present rate. our forces now in the
Crimea VIII be destroyed somewhere about New
ears day, and we shall have the doubtful salts
faction of knowing that the Russians have lost
twice many, but at last ''nasters Of the
