al have another great Circassian victory to re-
port About ten days ago, the Russian General
Bvdokimoh proceeded with stron4-column TO-
wards the valley inhabited by the hostile Shapsu
and Abaseh tribes with a view to devastate the
whole. On being apprised Of the enemy's ap-
proach, the threatened population promptly
moved OF with their cattle and other moveaoles
into the moustains and called on the other tribes
% rally to thslr assis ance. This appeal was
speedily responded to, and in a couple Of days
such force had Assem- bled from all sides as was
against, but to attack the Russians. This was
accor iingly decided on, and an the fortress Of
Hamkets, in the neig borhood, was the chief
plain, an ass:ult upon @ Il was arst resolved on.
Accordingly, on the night OF the I'D, strong
force, composed Of contingents from the Ubiks,
ShaPsus and Abasehs, proceeded under cover OF
the darkness to the fort, aud by rapid simulta-
neous escalade on all sides, made good a footing
within the walls. Whilst a party Of these as
salahts engaged the surprised garrison, the Others
opened the gates to their fellows outside, and the
wild, murderous crowd rolled in As quarter Is
seldom or never given in this war, none was now
given to the Russians; the whole, numbering
three thousand men, were butchered on the spot,
and the morning broke on not living Muscovite
within the blood stained walls.
"The fruits OF this sufficiently savage victory
were the capture of large stores Of arms and am
muni'iOn, including several valuable tield-pieces
and mountain hOwitz<rs. The large guns were
all spiked, and after the place had been stripped
OF everything worth carrying off, 1t was set fire
to and demolished. In the meantime, the valley
into which Gen. Evdokimof had lucklessly
moved had been surrounded, and all the outlets
from II closed by strong bodies OF the other
mountaineers, and the surrender or destruction of
the whole detachment was regarded (by the Cir
cassians) as certain when the bearer OF this news
left the scene Of action.D
