suffered prepared the public for The result
Precisely at noon of the Sth, the whole 6ispo-
sable force of the beseging armies moved for
ward in four fold attack. The extreme right
of the French attack was directed against the
Little Redan, which they carried, but had TO
abandon from fierce charge of the Russians.
The second and principal assault of the French
was against the Malakhoff, which after six re-
pulses they carried by storm, and decided the
fate of the day. A third attack made by the
British against the Great Redan, completely
failed, for although they succeeded in gaining
a temporary possession of the salient angle of

The attack of the English against the Redan
did n1t succeed
From Gen. Pelissier.-" Varna, Sept. O.
The assault on the Malakhoff was made at noon
Saturday. Its redoubts, and the Redan of the
Careening Bay were occupied by our brave
soldiers with admirable enthusiasm to the cry
Of " Vive l'Empereur.' We occupied our
selves with enjeavoring to secure our position,
and succeeded in this object at the Malakhoff.
The Redan on the side Of Careenng Bay
could not be maintained in the face of powerful
artillery which overwhelmed the first occupants
of that work but which, however, our firm set
Element in the Malakhoif will speedily cause TO
succamb, together with the Redan, which orr
brave allies seized, attacking it with their ha-
bilual vlgor, but here, as with our own troops,
on the side Of the Careening Bay, our allies
were compelled 10 ceGe the works again to the
powerful artillery and reserve of the enemy.
AT sight of our eagles flowing on The Nal
akhoff Gen. Dssalles made two attacks upon
the central bastion. These, however, did rot
succeed, and our troops returned 10 their
trenches.
Six hundred and fifty soldiers and twenty
seven officers were taken prisoners in the Nal
akhof.'
EVACUATION OF THE SOUTHERN SIDE.
From Gen. Pelisser-'' Branchier Redoubt,
August 8, A. NJ. .-Karabelania and the south
of Sebastopo no longer exist. The enemy
percevins our solid occupation of the Mala-
khoit, decided upon evacuatlng the place, after
having destroyed aud blown up by mines near
ly all the defensive works. Having passed The
night in the midst of my troops, can assure
you that everything in the karabelania is
blown up, and from what could see, the same
must be lhe case in our left line of attack
This immense success does the greatest honor
10 our troops. Our losses during the dav-af-
Ter so many combats-must be Considerable
Tomorrow shall be able TO form an estimate
Of results of this great days work. A great
portion of ;he honor is due 10 Generals Bosquet
aud Mcmahon. Everything is quiet on the
Tchernaya, and we are vigiant there
Further from Gen. Peissier.-s' Sept. 0, 8
p. M. The enemy has sunk his steam vessels.
The work of destruction continues under the
fire of our morlars. AS mines are successfully
sprung at different points, it is my duty 10 de-
fer entering the place, which has the appear
a1ce of great furnace.
Prince Gortschakoff being closely pressed by
our fire has demanded an arinistce 10 carry off
his wounded.
The bridge near Fort ST. Paul has been de-
stroyed BY The enemy"
RUSSIAN ACCOUNTS.
Accounts from St. Petersburg are received,
giving the following from Gortschakolf dated
Sebaslopol, Sept. 8, noon - The enemy re-
ceived fresh renforcements necessarily. The
bombardment continues very violent,
10 o'clock, P. M.-The garrison of Sebasto-
pol after sustaining an Internal fire were re-
pulsed to-day, although six assaults were made,
they could not drive the enemy from the Bas-
tlon korniloIf. Oar brave troops, who resisted
to the last extremity, are now crossing to the
northern part OF Sebasiopol. The enemy has
found nothing in the southern part but the
bloody ruins whlch his attack has made The
passage of the garrison from the southern TO
The northern side has been achieved with ex-
traorjinary success, and our only loss on that
occasion is about 100 men killed. We left in
the southern part only 500 men, grievousy
wounded
SUBSEQUENT FROM GEN. PELISSIER.
Crimea, Sept. 10, lip MI inspected to-
day Sebaslopol and its lines of defence. The
mind cannot form an exact picture of our victo-
ry, The full extent of which can ouly be under
stood by an inspection of the place itself. The
multiplicity of the works of defence, and the
means applied thereto, exceeded by far anything
hitherto seen in the history of war. The cap
ture of the Malakholf, which compelled the en-
emy to fly before our eagles, already three
times victorious, has placed in the hands of the
allies an amount of material and an immense
establishment, the importance OF which it is not
possible to state exactly. The exultation of
our soldiers is very great
Sept. IL, Ill p. M.-The enemy has de-
stroyed the remainder of his fleet. Nothing
now remains in harbor.
