The Atlantic brings Liverpool dates Of Satur-
day noon the cd instant, and le2 passengers. By
the last arrival we had brief announcement that
the French had driven the Russians from strong
position of defence before Sebastopol This
place was defended by nearly the whole garrison.
The total loss of killed and wounded on both sides
is set down at 5000. Pellisser says that the Rus
sian loss Is enormous, while that of his own troops
is considerable, though much less. The French
retained the position
Gortschakoff's account Of the affair runs thus
Yesterday evening seventeen battalons of the
enemy, with reserves, attacked the trench.
counter approach commenced the day before in
front OF bastions and q. The combat lasted du-
ring the whole night. Our battalions lost nearly
$500 men in driving back the enemy"
Pellissier telegraphs: "May 20, P. M.-To-day
we have occupied the lines of Tchcrnaya. The
enemy, not being In force, offered but little resist
ance, and retreated into the hills.
I'VE have definitely established ourselves in
the works carried on the 22d and odd. An armis
tce was agreed upon to bury the dead which en-
abled us to estimate the enemy's losses. They
must be five to six thousand in killed and
wounded"
MAY 2s.-The enemy have not made any de-
tiar, aithar front apainat he
on the Tchernaya."
The works and Notifications at Kamiesch are
progressing. The sanitary condition of the army
is good.
."0n the 9th the expedition TO Kertsch and
Euikall, was attended with complete success The
enemy fed on the approach Of the allies, blew up
their powder magazines, destroyed their batteries
and burnt their steamers"
II Is rumored in Paris that Pessier had attacked
and routed Lprandfs forces that Csnrobert was
wounded, and another French general killed. But
this report is considered doubtful.
