their way to Perekop, in successive columns Of br-

CONS, principally furnished by German colonists
dotted over the Intervening sfeppes, in the same
manner as they aided with 1000 wagons In the
transport Of the 4th corps, immediately previous to
the battle of Inkermann. Taking the Russian re-
rnrns at their value pager, the three divisions,
each Of 16 battslions, would give $500 bayorets,
including the Sd battalion Of Rifles. But the ut
most average amount Of effective combatants does
not and cannot exceed 700 men each, half Of them
being recruits Of the last l8 months levies. The

a ball grazed his neck, and he had hardly
mounted the mule, when he received
two arrows in his breast, two in his hips
and two in his back. He fell senseless to

Indians making off with his mule. They
made signs for him to go back, and he

Major Dripps met him, and assisted him to

made, he had with him about $40 900, one

coin was carried off by the Indians, but he
succeeded in saving the drafts.
