CHROIVICLE & SENTINEL
EUROPEAN INTELLIGENCE,
liY TUB BALTIC.
From the A«c York Courier and Enquirer,
Th . &‘.eaniahip Africa arrived at L vcrpool on
the afternoon of Sunday, 12th, at 4 o clock.
The Indiana arrived at Southampton, on 14th,
in thirteen days and a Lali —all weii.
The Braz !;a'j u*ai. Thames arrived at
Southampton on the lllh. Her datce were from
Baenoa Ayren, October 3d, Monte Video, 6th,
Pernambuco, 23i, Madeira, November 6th. Had
aboat $25,000 in gold, sliver and diamonds. News
i.ot imports nl. At Monte Video were the U. S
frigate Savannah and brig Baiabridge. At Rio
the frigates Germantown and Massachusetts The
Mahsachnsetts had been dismasted in a gaioj 150
miles oif Rio.
The news is of much intero6t.
With every wish to do justice to Iho admirable
bravery of the Allied armr, and with r:o dosire to
blacken news a;ready too disaetroaa, it is impossi
ble to eaoajxj the conviction t at the army before
aebastopol is in a position of great peril. A por
tlcn of the intolligsrce, both good and bad, is
hashed up from the public, but from the facts
that have transpired very different inferences »*ay
be drawn than those set forth semi officially in the
London Times.
The best that can be said for the news on the
part of the Allies is, that it is of a cfceqeured de
scription. A succession of hard tlgma has b*en
fought, and victor oa gained, each “victory” coet
ing ts much aa a defo«l. Al the same time so
cloneiy have these atfhirs been drawn, that the
Russians, equally with the allies, claim the advan
tage. It is aow admitted that the defences of
Sebastopol were under-ratod, the bravery of the
enemy under rated, and the force of Monachikoff
in the field, alwgef.or unexpected.
Gene. Raglan the oomman ers-in
chief, have sent the most argent demands for re
inforcemenls. The haste manifeatad to transmit
tothoCri ea every available man—Briton, Fronch
man and Turk—shows the importance attachod to
the demand. Seven fire*. claF;; steamers are taken
up for instant service, and others are wanted.
Tne Cnnard steamer Alps is withdrawn from the
bu-rth for New York, and sailed on Sunday, 11th,
for Toulon, to embark h ronchmon. Tho (Junar
der Europa , would pf.il from Liverpool on the 18th
so» King-ton, Ireland, to ship the few rigiments
jet left in Ireland. The romnsnlar and Oriental
(Modiierranean) Company notify that tney have
received imparative orders to withdraw rrom the
roail service tho steamer* Candia, Ripon Manilla,
Nubia, and Ilajah, for immediate reinforcements
to the Crimea. The steamer Indiana, just arrived
from New York, and the West India mail si earner
Thames are ulso taken up. The engagement of the
Canard steamers will not, —in the meantime, at
least,—interfere with tho weekly mail service to
America.
Current Events of the War.— The latest in
telligence sent ua by our correspondent, per the
steamer Canada, was, that in the battle of the 26*h,
a thousand men aud6[)o horses, belonging to the
English were killed in three hours by a T i over
whelming force of Ra& iaus. This intelligence
reached Liverpool but a short time previous to the
sailing ot the Canada, and, as may bo supposed,
caused universal surprise and pain. Farther ad
vices confirm the main features of this terrible
disaster, but fortunately, not to quite so great an
extent as was at first reported. Sad to relate, tho
charge of cavalry that precipitated bo many into
certain destruction was the result of a istake or,
at loaat, of a misconception of orders arising from
the esprit de c/rps that induced tho cavalry to at
tempt some brilliant exploit to retrieve the second
ary part they played at the battle of Alma. In
short, misconstruing un order from tho Cornmon
der in chief, conveyed by Captain NMan Lords
Lucan and Cardigan rode tho light horse over a
plain u mile and a half in length and exposed to a
crossfire, full at a Russian bat c' ry ol 80guns!—
"t he attempt wos madness—and the result destruc
tion. The were:
Went into action. Returned.
4th Light Dragoons.. 118 89
Bth Hussars 104 £8
11th Hussars 110 25
13th Light Dragoons. 180 G1
7th Lancers... . . 145 85
607 198
Not three hours, but one quarter of an hour ,
served to lay vll these gallant fellows low, and
every soul would have been cut rff, had it not boon
for tho heavy dragoons, wfcocharged a* rapidly as
they could in the track v .• “light.” Os
ihiu latter charge Lord Rag an says: “The charge
of this brigade (heavy cavalry) was one of the
must successful I ever witnessed, was nov r for a
moment doubtful, and wss in tho highest degree
creditable to Brigadier General Scarlett and the
officors and men engaged in it.” It, with the brave
stai d made by the Scotch Highlanders, and some
assistance given by the French, certainly redeemed
ihe day. For details of tho battle we refer to a
subsequent part of our summary. After the ac
tion it was resolved by tho allies to abandon the
position at Balaklava, and to retire to tho hills
overlooking tho town, in which case the depot
would have boon established at Arrow Bay or Chor
son. But advices of tho 27th state that it baa been
re decided to retain Balaklava.
A despatch from Prince Menschikoff sent to
Berlin, in cypher, and thence forwarded by a spe
cial courier to Paris, states that on November 4th,
unusual activity having been observable in the
allied camp, (doubtless, preparations to storm,)
General Liprandi, roinforeed by o corps sent by
killed 800 men.
This report, however, is doubtful, as is the state
ment that a practicable breach wai opened in the
wal’s on tho same day—the 4th.
BATTLE BEFORE SEVASTOPOL.
Vie French Account.— Gen. Oanrcfoeri’s oilicial !
report of the battlo of Nov.&tb, is published in the {
Moniteur of the 18th. He says : (
“The Russian army, swollen by reinforcements ,
from the Danube, as well as by the combined re
serves of all tbe Southern provinces, and animated
by the presence of the Grand Dukes Michael aud
Nicholas, attacked yesterday, Nov. sth, the right
of the hnglish position before Sevastopol.
“Tho Eogli.-h army Bustuinod tho attack with
the most reinarkablo solidity. I sup
ported it by a portion of General Bosquet’s divi
sion, which fought with admiral vigor, as well as
by tho troops which were nearest to the English
position.
“The enemv, who far outnumbered rur force,
bent a retreat with a loss estimated at irom 8000 to
9000 men.
11 The struggle Lasted the whoU day.
“At ihe same tiruo General Fo»ey was forced to
repulse a sortie made by tho garrisoD, ami under
his energetic command tho enemy were driven
back into the place, with a loss of 1000 killed and
wounded. , ,
“This brilliant day, wliioh was not purchased
without considerable loss by tho Allies, does the
greatest honor to our arms.
“The t*iego continues with regularity.
“Signed, Caubobebt.”
English Account. —English adwees from Bucha
rest of the 10'h, state thut on tho morning of the
sth, I’rinco Mousehikoa’s wholo army attacked the
English posilion. A sanguinary battle ensued,
which lasted till four in thoufieruoon. The Allies
obtained a decisive victory. There were severe
looses on both sides. Tho English took many hun
dred prisoners. Generals Butler, Adams, Ben
tiuck, Torrens, and (it was said) also General bir
G. llrowu wore wounded. The English oEicial
account lias arrived.
Latest. —Up to Tue.day afternoon, 14th, no om
ciul accounts had been received by the English
Government from Lords Raglan or Stratford de
Kedcliffe, relative to tho action of the sth, but
advices received ot Liverpool on tho morning of
15th supply a few additional parUoulars. The right
wing of the English antic vrhioh ■*.- attacked by
the Russians, eousi ded of the English Foot Guards,
and the 2d, BJ, aud 4th Divisions. At Vieuna the
prevalent opinion was that a few more such “ vic
tories’' would compel tho Allies to raise the siege.
Meuschikoff appears to boot tbe same opinion, for
in c despatch to I’tinoo Baekiewitch, he says: “It
will be impossible for the Allies to continue tho
siege, and 1 will continue to harass them (to chas
tise their tetnoriiy.’)”
The London Times' correspondent telegraphs
that Gen. Caiirobort had assured the French Gov
ernment the Russians were so weakened in the
affair ot the sth that for ten days to oome, they
would not b 3 in a posilion to resist the assault on
tho town, and that he means to make the attempt.
The correspondent calls the Allies loss, 5000 Eng
lish, French aud Turks.
The Rmsian Account. —A telegraphic despatch
from dt. Petersburg, stated November 12th, state
that i'rinco Monschlkoff reports to the Emperor,
under date the 6'h November, from Sebastopol,
that on the sth the garrison made two aortios, one
against the right flank, whioh was successful, and
resulted in the capture of oue of tho enemy’s bat
teries, the guns in which were spikod.
Th ro tic grr .t loss or both sides.
Th’ sccott.l sortie w. « also completely success
f '.I, the Has. lee having spiked fifteen guns.
Immediately a‘leiaa r ds, a t reuch inl.ntry di
vision, pursuing the retiring Kusciann, attempted
to mount to the assault, bat was thrown back with
immense loss.
The Morgen Post ofVienna has the following
despatch from
“Czurnoyitz, Nov. 11. —Cu the 6th the whole
garrison cf Sebastopol, amounting to 65,000 men,
made a sertio.
“A furious battle ensued, which was not ended
when the tae.senger left; but the Allies had the
advantage.”
It was reported in Paris that the French govern*
incut had received a despatch announcing that the
storming of Sebastopol commenced on the sth,
under very lavorablc circumstances. Nolhicgtlse
was known.
r lt will bo observed that the preceding Russian
despatches admit that an assault was made by the
French on the sth inst., but say it was repulsed
with great slaughter.]
Another despatch confirms that on the 4t h Nov.
the allies’ battories were but oue hundred and fifty
yards from tbe walla, aud that they had effected a
practicable breach.
The DiciCßE From Jassay, Nov. 10, it is tele
graphed tiiat the movement of Ottoman troops
towards Moldavia and the Pruth, continues with
activity, and produces much sensation in the Prin
cipalities. It is not doubted that the Turkish army
is m a condition to resume ti.e offensive with vigor.
Omar Pasha is expected in person on the Pruth.
Odessa letters say that the Russian forces in the
Delta of the Danabue, will probably be removed to
the Upper Pruth, and that ouiy garrisons will be
left in the tombed places. Gen. Ludara, it i* said,
| will evacuate the southern part of Bessarabia, if
beoastcpol falls, as lie allies will then act against
] Odessa and Ackerman.
Th* Baltic, l'he * eel under Sir Charles Na
pier were mKm harbor, one English mile from
the town of Kiel, on November Tth. frost had al
ready set in, and the fleet would aoon leave.
Commercial letters received at Memel on the Sth
instant, from St. Petersburg mercnauta, order
tnat their goods should not be shipped in British
vessels, sa they tearei the Bossi&n fleet would put
to sea, there being to few British cruisers in the
Baiuc.
Asia. —The British Embassy is endeavoring to
recover possession of the Bosnian ladies who
were recently carried off by the Dagbestanees,
from the village north of Tiflia.
Nothing from the army.
Bussia.—We are informed by our adv.cea per
last steamer from Europe, that the Caar evinces a
willingness to resume negotiations. Tneee indi
cations are confirmed by tne news received to
day. His concession, however, goes no further
than offering to treat.cn the four point* o. guar
antee. , .
Latest. — Wednesday meriting, Not. lotn.;—
I: is te.egraphed irom Vienna, that I nnce Gor.a -
chakcff (the diplorratist) has ifficiaLy
to Count Euoi.taa: Kussia is prepares to treat di
rect with Austraon tfaa basis o: the four conditions.
Thi* is considered a palpable attempt to caae©
. iasension between Austria and the Pow
ers.
Tas Gismanic Stat»,—On Wednesday, the
: 15th inat., the Germanic Confederation was to
occupy itse.f with the w question. Austria and
1 Prussia (it is reporter) have smoothed their dis
! ter&ucee so far the Germanic States are oon
cerned, and a joint demand will be made upon the
* bodv ot the Diet by both these Powers.
AUGUSTA, GA., WEDNESDAY, DECEMBERS, 1854.
Aii the smaller Gorman Slat® 4, parlicuiaely tnoee
of the Sooth, are engaged in patting their armies
on a war footing, as though it was decided already
. that the whole German nation will a jhere to Acs
II tria’s policy.
- The indications (aays an English a-'count) of the
offensive and defensive alliance aboa* to t>e brought
to a close between Austria and the Western Pow
ers are jealously watched by the Cabinet of Pros
eia, and Lord Palmerston’s presence at Paris is
considered as furthering such a treaty. Ncgotia
tions continue active between the Russian and
Prussian courts. Baron Brunow had returned
(12th instant; from St. Petersburg to Berlin, to
have a joint interview with M de Mauteoffel, the
Pruesiaii Premier, and Baron Budberg, the Rus
sian Ambassador at Berlin.
Austria. —The statement is that Austria will
not, under any circumstances, take the field against
Russia until the spring. As long as the Russian
troops were concentrated along t .e Austrian fron
tier, there was a constant likelihood that a collision
night take place; and the cabinet of St. Peters
b ;rg, to prevent such a casualty, and anxious not
to give umbrage to Austria, has announced its
willingness to withdraw this menacing force, and
during the winter to place it in “some other equally
advantageous position.”
Austria, while accepting this accommodation,
will continue her armaments.
Latent.— Phere is a rumor in Vienna that Baron
Kathschild, finding hia recent purchase of the Aus
trian Government railways a bad bargain, offers
the Government a loan of 200,000,000 franca to
cancel tho agreement. Tins proposal, if true, will
exercise a considerable influence on financial as
fairs.
Incidents. —Although no general aotion was
fought from the 26th Octooer to the sth Novem
ber, the eight day 3 between these two dates are
described as an incessant combat. It is reported
that Lord Raglan has suspend id the Earl of Car
digan his command for “rashness” in the
ha rg* which proved so disastrous at Balaklava.
A French General exclaimed when he witnessed
the charge of the cavalry—“ (Test ires magnifique—

THE ATTACK ON BALAKLAVA.
[ English Official Despatches.'] ’
jay jjorn '<
your (ir.oo that ihe canny allaoked the position t
in the front of Balaklava at an early hour on the ]
morning of the 25th inat.
Tha low range of heights that runs across tho
plain, at the bottom of which the town is placed,
was protected by four small redoubts hastily oon
struoted. Three of these had guns in them ; and ,
on a higher hill, in front of the Tillage of Camara,
in advance of our right flank, was established u
work of somewhat mere importance. _ !
These several redoubta wore garrisoned by Turk
isb troope, no other foroo being at my disposal tor j
their occupation.
The 98d Highlanders was the only British regi
ment in the pisiu, with the exception of a part of a
battalion of detachments composed of weakly men, 1
and a battery of artillery belonging to the Third ;
Division ; and on the heights behind our right
were plaoed tho Marinos, obligingly landed from
the fleet by Vice Admiral Dundas. All these, in
cluding the Turkish troop., wore under the imme
diate orders of Major General Sir Colin Campbell,
whom 1 had taken from the First Division with
the 05d.
soon ns I wu<3 apprised of this movement of
the enemy, I felt compelled to withdraw from be
fore Sebastopol the First and Fourth Divisions,
commanded bv Lieutenant Generals his Royal
Highness the Duke of Cambridge and the Hon. Sir
George Cathcart, and bring them down into the
plain; aud General Canrobert subsequently rein
forced these troops with the First Division of
Frecuch infantry aud the Chassoura d’Afriqne.
Tho onemy commenced their operations by at
tacking tho work on our side of the village oi Ca
mara, and after very little resistence carried it.
They likewise got possession of the three others
in contiguity to it, being opposed Only in one, and
that but a very short apace of tiOe.
The farthest of tho three tb® did not retain,
but tho immediate abandonmsfw of the others
snablod them to take possession of the guns in
them, amounting in the whole to seven. Those in
the throe lesser forts were spiked by one English
artilleryman who wsein each.
The Hussion cavalry at onoe aftawnceu, suppos

Ground was verv unfavorable for the attack of our
ragooce, but no obstaclo was sufleient to chock
their advance, and they charged Into the Ensßian
column, which soon sought cafaty in flight,
altkougn far superior in numbers.
The charge of this brigade was one of the most
successful 1 ever witnessed, was never for a mo
ment doubtful, and is in the highest degroe credit
able to Bridgadier General Scarlett and the officers
and men engaged in it.
As the enemy withdrew from t :c ground which
Ihcy had momentarily occupied, I directed the
cavalry, supported by the Fourth Division, under
Lieutenant General Sir George Catheart, to move
forward, aud take advantage of any opportunity
to rogaiu the heights ; aud not having been able to
accomplish this immediately, »nd itappearing that
an attempt was making to remove the esntured
guns, the Earl of Lucan was desired to advance
rapidly, fellow the enemv in their retreat, and try
to prevent them from effecting their objects.
In tho meanwhile the Easei: ns had time to re
form on their own ground, with artillery in front
au-.l upon th ir flanks.
rr. m soma misconception of tho instruction to
advance, the Lieutenant General considered that
he wae bound to attack at all hazards, and he ac
cordingly ordered Major General the Earl of Cardi
gan to move forward with the Light Brigade.
This order was obeyed in the most spirited and
gallant manner. Lord Cardigan charged with the
utmost vigor, attacked a battery which was firing
upon the advancing squadrons, and, having passed
beyond it, engaged the Huasiau cavalry in ite rear;
but there his troops were assailed by artillery and
infantry as well as eavairy, and necessarily retired,
after having committed much havoc upon the en
emy.
They effected this movement without haste or
confusion ; but the lose they have sustained has, I
deeply lament, been very severe in officers, men,
and horses, only counterbalanced by the brilliancy
oi the attack and the gallantry, order, ard disci
pline which distinguished it, forming a striking
contrast to tho enemy’s eavairy, which had pre
viously beon engaged’with the heavy brigade.
The Chasseurs d’Afrique advanoed on our left
and gallantly charged a Eussisn battery, which
checked its fire for a time, and thus rendered the
British cavalry an essential servied.
I have the honor to enclose oopies of Sir Colin
Campbell's and the Esrl of Lacan’s reports.
I beg to draw your Graces’ attention to the terms
in which Sir Colin Campbell speaks of Lieut. Colo
nel Ainslie of the 88d, and Capt. Baker of the Eoy
- ai Artillery; and also to the praise bestowed by tbo
cf Lucan on Maj. Gen. the Earl of Cardigan
1 and Brigadier-General Scarlett, which they moot
1 fully deserve.
he Earl of Lucan not having sent me the
i’ names of the other officers who distinguished
i tr.omselve*, 1 propose Vo forward them by the next
opportunity.
The enemv made no further movement in ad
i i vanca ; and at the close of the day the brigade of
Gaurdj of the First Division and the Fourth Divi
sion returned to their original encampment, as did
1 the French troops, with the exception of one brig
ade of the First Division, wh eh Gen. Canrobett
• was so good as to leave in support of Sir Colin
- Campbell.
1 The remaining regiments of the Highland Bri
gade a.sc remained in the valley.
’ The Fourth Division had advanoed close to the
heights, ana Sir George Catheart caused one of
1 the redoubt* to be re-occupied by the Turks, af
iording them his support, and he availed himself
J the opportunity to assist with his riflemen in
* Jeucing two of the enemy’s guns.

order from your Lordship.
The Heavy Brigade had soon tortlnjf to the
support of the defending La.akjars, and
was fortunate enough in being at hand Vhen a
large force of BussDn cavalry was descending the
hill. I immediately ordered Brgadier general
Scarlett to attack with ire Scots Gnus nua

flank attack of the 4th Dragoon Guards. .
Under every disadvantage of ground th** eight

The Heavy Brigade having uowjouaadUp Light

•Sir; —l have -he honor to inform ycu that cn
the morning of the 25th inst., about 7 o’clock, tho
Russian force winch has boon, as I aieady re
ported, for some time among tho hills on our right
front, debouched into the open gro md front of
the redoubts Nos. 1,2, and S, which wo.o occupied
by Turkish infantry and artillery and were armrd
with seven 12-pounders, iron. The enemy s force
consisted ot IS or 19 battaliions of infantry and
16 guns The Turkish troops in No. 1 persisted
as long a* they could, and then retired, aid they
suffered considerable loss in their retreat. This
attack was followed by the successive abandon
ment of Nos. 2,8, and 4 rodoubts by the Turks, as
weil as of tho other posts held by them in our
front. Tho guna, however, in Nos. 2, J, and 4
were spiked. The garrison of these redoabts re
tired, and some of them formed on the right and
some on the loft flank of 93i Higulaudors, which
was posted in front of No. 4 battery aud the vil
lage of Kadikoi. Whon the enemy had taken
possession of these rodoubts, their arthlory ad
vanced witha largo mas* of cavalry, and tkeir guns
ranged to tho 93d Highlanders, which, with 100
invalids under Lieutenant Colono! Darenoy in
support, occupied very insufficiently, from tho
smallness of their numbers, the slight l ? rising
ground in front of No. 4 battery. As I found that
round shot and shell began to cause sjma casualties
among tho 93d Highlauders and the Tu.sish bat
taliions on their right aud left flank, I made them
retire a tew pace- behind the crest of the hill.
Daring this period our batteries on the hills,
Lianned by the Royal Marine Artillery and the
Koyal Marines, made most excellent practice on the
enemy’s cavalry, which came over the bill ground
in front. One body of them, amounting to about
400 men, turned to their left, separ- ting themselves
from those who attacked Lord Lucan’s Division,
and charged the 98d Highlanders, who immedi
ately advanced to the crest of the hill and opened
their firo, which forced Ihe Russian cavalry to
give way and turn to their left, aftor which they
made an attempt to turn the right flank of the 98d,
having observed the flight of tho Turks who were
placed there, upon which the Grenadiers of the
98d, under Captain Rosa, wore wheeled up to their
right and fired on tho onemy, which macmavre
completely discomfited them.
During the rest of the day the troops under my
command recoivod no further molestation from the
Russians. I beg to call Lord Raglan’s attention
to the gallantry and eagerness of the 98d High
landers under Lieutenant-Colonel Ainslie, of
which probably his Lordship was an eyo-witness;
as woll as the admirable conduct of Captain Bar
orders, who m&do most excellent practice ’’tiga** ot
tho Russian cavalry and artillery while within
range. I have, Ac.,

THE ACTION ON THE 16TH.
Second Division, Heights or theTohernay, Oct. 27.
My Lord :—Yesterday the enemy attacked this
division with several colums of infantry, suppor
ted by artillery. Their cavalry did not come to the
front. Their masses covered by largo bodies of
skirmishers, advanced with much apparent confl
deuce. The division immediately formed line in
advance of our camp, the lefi under Msjor-Gener
al Pennefatber, the right under Brigadier General
Adams. Lieutenant-Colonel Fitzmayer and tho
Captains ot batteries, (Turner and Yates) promtly
posted their guns, and opened fire upon tho ene
my.
Immediately on tho cannonade being heard, the
Duke of Cambridge brought up to oar support the
brigade of Guards under Major General Bontinok,
with a battery under Lieutenant Colonel Dacres.
His Royal Highness took post in advance ot our
right to soon re that flank and rendered me through
out tho most effective and important assistance.—
General Bosquet, with similar promptitude, aud
from a greater distance, appr ached our position
with five Fonch battalions. Sir G. Cathc.':rt has
tened to us with a regiment of Rifle», and Sir G.
Brown pushed forward two guns in co-operation
by our left.
The enemy carno ou at fir>t rupidly, assisted by
thsir guns on th« Mound bill. Our pickets, then
chiefly of the 49tli and 80th Regiments, resisted
them with very remarkable determination and
firmness. Lieutenant Conolly, of the 49th, great
ly distinguished himself, as did Captain Bayly, of
the 30th, and Captain Atcherley, all of whom, I
regret to say, were severely wounded. Sergeant
Snllirau also displayfd at this point great bravery.
In tho meantime our 18 guns in position, inclu
ding those of the First Division, were served with
the utmost energy. In half an hour they forced
the enemy’s artillery to abandon the field. Our
batteries were thon directed with equal accuracy
and vigor upon the enemy’s columns, which (ex
posed also to the close fire of our advanced infan
try) soon fell into complete disorder and flight.
They were then literally chased by tho 80th and
95th regtmenU over tho ridges, and down towards
the head of he bay. So eager was the pursuit
that it was with difficulty Major General Penne*
father eventually effected the recall of our men.
These ri gimenta and tho pickets were lod gallantly
by Major Mauleverer, Major Champion, Major
Eman, aud Major Hume. The Russians were
similarly pursued further towards our right by four
companies es the 41st, led gallantly by Lieutenant
Colonel the Hon.F. Herbert, A. Q. M. G. Tho47lh
aiao contributed. The 55th were held in reserve.
Above 80 prisoners fell into our hands, and about
180 of the enemy’s dead were left within or near
our position. It is computed that their total loss
could scarcely bo less than 600.
Our loss, I am sorry to say, has been above 80, of
whom 12 officers are killed, and 5 wounded. lam
happy to say hopes are entertained that Lieuten
ant Conolly will recover, but his wound is dange
rous.
I shall have the Conor of transmitting to your
Lordship a list ot officers, non commissioned offl
car*, andiprivates, whose conduct attracted special
notice. That of the pickets excited general ad
miration.

ry—amounting, it is said, to 6,000 or 7,000 man—
and attacked the left oftheSeeond Division, com

covered by th: fire of the artillery and a chain cf

with tho latter regiment in two lines by columns
of companies, there not being a space of more
than 100 paces between the two lines, and in third
like tho first battalion of the Regiment ol Az ,li
and ihe 4 h bati&llicn of the Regiment of Dnieper,
by columns ol attack.
“After having approached in this order tothe dis
tance ot not more than 100 paces from tho fortified
height of tho enemy, Major General Semiakino
gave ordors for the assault. Tho companies made
a rapid movement in advance, and at half past 7
o’clock tho Regiment of Az'll'had hoisted its flags
upon tho fortifications. The trophies gained upon
this point were three rampart guns rnd u camp.
In this redoubt lie lots ol the enemy in dead only
was more than 170 men.
“At tho same time tho eueiu}, from tho rapidity
with which the principal height iiad been occupied,
and in consequence of his seeing tho advance of
tho Regiment of Chasseurs of the Ukraine, aban
doned tho redoubts Noa. h and 8, (the formor arm

were immediately occupied by our troops. The
Regiment of Chasseurs of with the light
battery No. 7, under the command ol Colonel do
Scudari, advanced to the redoubt No. 4, but the
enemy, terrified upor th point also, did not wait
for cur attack and abandoned tnc ro iouht, in which
there were tfcioe guns. Beside., this in each of
tho redoubts tho enemy had left his tents and hi
powder magazines ana engineering tools.
“Immediaiely after the occupation of the re
ooufctß I ordered the troops to establish themselves
there. I immediately ordered tho rodoubt No. 4
to bo raized, as it was too much advanced, r.ud 1
ordered its gun 3 to be spiked; aud the wheels and
carriages to be broken, and the fragments to bo
thrown down the mountain. When these orders
had been executed tho troops wl o had occupied
the redoubt joined tho general lino cf the etber
oorps.
*• The brigade of Hussars cl riio 6th Division of
L’ght Cavalry, under tho command of Lieutenant
Ueuorai Ryjoff. who accompanied the dett Jimont,
was posted at tho right wing of oar gcu.ial line of
battlo, with tho Light Ilorso battery No. 12, and
tho Cossack battery of position No. 3. Daring tho
movement of tho troops in advance tho artillery of
the Don moved rapidly for war ' , and having
placed itself iu position, contributed by its well
directed lire to the succors ol tho general attack.
“When all iho redoubts had been occupied, I
ordered the advance of the cavalry, with the regi
ment No. 1, of the Cossacks of the Dural and three
detachments of tho Regimout No. 53 of i c Cos
sacks of the Don, upon the enemy’s camp, situated
upon the other side ol the mouutuius. Our cavalry
advanced rapidly, even to tho camp; but, attacked
in flank by tko fire of tho enemy’s riflemen, and in
front by tho English cavalry, it was compelled to
halt, and atterwards resumed its first position at
the right wing of the general ordorjof battlo, being
so placed that its front did not present a right lino,
the direction of one of its wings forming ou angle
with that of tho centre.
“At this lime Major General Jabrokitsky, with
a detachment of tho lulautr, Regiment of Vtadi
mir, (throo buttalious) and that of Soozdal, 10
guns ot tho battery of position No. 1, four guns of
the light battery, No. 2 of tho 16th brigade of ar
tillery, two companiesof tho ba. alion of Regiments
ui ihe Grand Duke of Saxe Weimar, and two de
tachments of tho Regiments No. 60 of Cossacks (of
Popoff,) advanced uprn the heights to the left of
our cavalry, and occupied them. Our cavalry
hardly had time to form in order of battle bey. nd
tho right flank of our infantry, wher, fr m the
other side of tno mountain, where the redoubt No.
4 was raised, tho English cavalry appeared, more
than 2,000 strong. Its impetuous attack induced
Lieutenant General Kyjctf to turn back upon the
route to Schorgoum to draw the enemy. At tho
same time I ordered to advance towards my right
wing thocombinod regiment of Lancers, under i Ho
command of Colonel Yeropkiue, which came from
Baidar to join the det&ehmant of Maj. Gen. Gribbe,
and I ordered that regiment to post itself behind
the infantry ir. a concealed position. Th 6 enemy
made a most obstinate chatgo, aud notwithstand
ing the well dircctod 1110 of grape from six gnus of
the light battery No. 7, and of the men armed
with oar bines ot the Regiment ot Clmsseursof
Ode-sa, and a e mpauy of the 4\h buttui-on ot
Kffiemeu at tho right wing, ua well aa the tire of a
part of the artillery of the detachment of -cjor
Gen. Jabrokritakv, he rushed upon our cavalry;
but at this moment three squadrons of tho oon
bined regiment of Luncers attacked him in fi-mk.
This unexpected charge, executed with precision
and viger, was attended with brilliaut soccers
The whole of the enemy’s cavglry in disorder pre
cipitated itself iu retreat, pursued by our l .f.cera
and by fire from our batteries. In this attack *.he
enemy h?ui more than 200 men killed and sixty
wounded, who were picked up on the field of bat
tle, and we made 22 prisoners, one of whom wus u
superior officer.
“A French squadron of African Chas
seurs rushed upon the detachment of Major Gen
oral Jabrekritsky. Having turned the lert fi-.nk
of the battery of posiliou, it reached the chain of
riflemen and began to put the urtillory to the
sword. Two other squadrons followed. Upon
this two battalions of the Regiment of VUdimar,
under Major General Jabrokritsky in person, pro
cipilatcd themselves in advance at the point of ;!>e
bayonet, and induced tho ouemy’s cavalry to re
tre*at, and It was pursued as far as the foot of the

CossauYa <rflho Black Sea, armed with cai bines,
and that of the rfleraen. ?»lorc than ten bodies
and fj&vffril remained upon the ; throe

manded tho dttack made by the enemy v.\ * killed.
“Bemorking that the enemv ajjain brovght up
Ireshtroopo to his loft wing, I reinforced my right
wing, aL I diaporod allthe troops of tho detach
ment in tl . following order:
‘‘A Battalion of the R-gimout of the Dnieper
occupied the village of Kamary; tho Regiment of
Infantry of Azof?aud the Ist battalion o! thet of
tho Dnieper woro ordered to defend tho roaoabt
No. 1; a battalion of tho Regiment ofCl.«s<eurs of

anothor battalion of the same regiment in redoubt
No. 8, near which were also plaoed the whole
Regiment of Chasseurs of Odessa, two b Itslions
of a Regiment of the Dnioper, and a battalion of
that of the Chasseurs of the Ukraine. All the

the cavalry as before, remained on tfceri .'ht flank
of the infantry. Howotcr, tno enemy ’did not
make any fresh att»ck, and ceased hi* firo at 4
o’clock in the afternoon.
In the taking by assault of such a strong position
I consider oar loss in in fan try as very signifi

Subjoined is a liit, rap.dly drawn up, in reference
to this point. (This list includes t, superior and

and the Contest.
Fr&m Newspaper O-rrteporjienU.
If the exhibition of the most brilliant valor, of
the excess of courage, and of daring which would
have reflected lustre on the best days of chivalry
can afford full -onsola'ion fer the disaster of to-day,
we can nave no reason to regret the melancholy
loss which we sustained in a contest with a savage
and barbarian enemy.
Before I proceed with my narrative, pre
:.iss that a esrtuin feeling cxi-tcd in seme qaar
ters that our cava’ ry had not \ sen properly handled
since they landed m the Cr.maa, aDd that they had
lost g ulden opportunities from tue indecision and
excessive caution of their leaders, aoleiy owing to
the timidity of the officer in command. The exis
enoe of this feeling was inown to many of our cav
alry, and they are indignant and exasperated that
the faintest shale of suspicion should rest on any
of"their corps. With the justice of these aspei
sions they seemed to think had noth mg to do,
and perhape the prominent thought in their minds
was that they would give such an example of
courage to the world, if the chance offered itself,
as would shame their detractors for ever.
It will be remembered that 11 battalions of Rus
sian infantry had crossed the Tohernays, and that
they threatened the rear of our position and our
communication with Balakiava. it will be recol
lected aieo that the position we occupied in re
ference to Balakiava was supposed by mo t people
to be very strong —even impregnate. Oar Jiae*
were formed by natural mountain slope- in the
rear, along which the French had made very for
midable intrenabmenta. Below those xntrench
xaerts, and very nearly in a right line across the
v t.ley beneath aio four central hillocks, one rising
above the ether as they recede from our lines; tho
furthest, which joins the okainof mountains oppo
site to our ridgos being named Canrobert's Hill,
from the meeting there of that General with Lord
Lriglau after the march to Balaklava. On the top
O; e:»ch of these hil.s tho Turks had thrown up
, earthen redoubts, defended by 250 moil o'ich, and
armed with two or thYee gum—one heavy shi t
v;uns, lent by us to them, with o* o art 11 ery man in
vjaffi redoubt to look aitor them. These hills cross
the valley of Btj&klava at the distance of about
two and a half miles from the town. Supposing
the spectator thou to take bis stand ou one of the
heights forming the rear ot our esmp before £o
bastopol, ho would see the town of Balaklava, with
its scanty shipping, its narrow strip of water, and
its old forts ou his right hand. Immediately below
ho would bohoid the valley and plain of coarse
meadow land, occupied by our cavalry tents, and
.-trctchiDg from the base ot the ridge on which he
t-tood to the foot of tho formidable heights at the
thor side. Be would see tho French trenches
lined with Zouaves a few feet beneath, and distant
:rom him, on the slopo of tho hill, a Turkish re
doubt lower down, then anothor in the valley,then
in a line with it come angular earth works, then,
iu succession, the other two redoubts up to Cau
robert’s Hill. At the distance of two or two and a
mi^eß across tho valley there is an abrupt

land. On your left the hills and rocky mountain
ranges gradually close iu towards the course of
the Toheruaya, till ai 8 or 4 miles distance from
Balaklava the valley is swallowed up in a woun
min gorge and deep ravines, above which rise
tier alter tier of desolate whidsh rock garnished
now aud thou uy bits of scanty herbage, and
spreading away towards tho oast, and south, where
they attain the Alpine dimensions of Tschatyr
Dagii. It is very easy foran enemy at tho Balbek,
or .n command of the* road of Mackenzie’s Farm,
hikorman, Simplierpol, or Bakshiscrai, to debouch
through these gorges atany tirno upon this plain
from the neck of the valley, or to march from
Sebastopol to the Tellernaya, i nd to advance along
n towards Balaklava, till cheeked by the Turkish
redoubts on tho southern side or by tho fire from
tho French works on the northern side, i. e., the
>ido which, in relation to tho valley to Balaklava,
lorrns tho rear of our position. It wus evident
.enough that Monschikotf and Gortschakoff had
beon ieelirg their way along this route for several
days past, and very probably at night the Cossacks
i a.l crept up close to our pickets, which are not
always as watchful -s might bo desired, and had
observed the weakness oi a position fur too cx |

The Alert—Turkish Weakness.— fcir Colin
(. ampbell, wno iu command of Balaklava, had
drawn up the 93d Highlanders a little in trout of
tue road to the town, at the first news of the ad
vance of the enemy. Tho marines on tho heights
got tinder arms; the seaman’s batteries and ma
rines’ batteries, ou 'die heights close to tho town,
were manned, and tho French artillerymen and
Z nuv 'S prexiared for action ulong their lines.
Lord Lucan’s little camp was tho soeno of great
excitement. The men hud not time to water
their horaes; they had not broken their fast from
the evening of tho day baforo, and had barely
saddled at the first blast of the trumpet, when they
were drawn up on tho slope behind tho redoubts
in iroat of their camp to operate on tho enemy’s
squadrons. It was soon evident that no reliance
wus to bo placed cn the Turkish infantry or
artillerymen. Ah tho stories we had heard about
bravery behind stone walls and earthworks proved
hnw child cully tho same or similar people fight
under different circumstances. When the Rus
sians advanced th Turks fired a few rounds at
then, got frightened at the distance of their sup
ports iu the rear, looked round, received a lew
shots and shell, aud then “bolted,” and fled with
an agility quite at variance with common-placo
notions of Oriental deportment on the battle-field.
But Turk < on tho Danube are very different beings
from tho Turks in the Crimea, as it appears that
the Russians of {Sebastopol are not at all like the
Russians of Silistria.
Tue French. —As 1 rodo in the direction of tho
firing, I observed a French light inlautry regi
mbiit (the 27th, I think,) advancii g«with admira
ble care and celerity from our r; fc ;i:: towards tho
ridge near tbo telegraph house, whit' was already
lined by companies of French infantry, while
mounted officers scampered along its broken out
line in every direction.
General Bosquet, a stout soldier-liko looking
man, who re.j.inds one of tho old genre ol French
generals, os depicted in tho Louvre, followed,
with his staff and a small oscort of hussars, at a
gallcp. Faint white clouds rose here and there
above the hill from ihe cannonade below.
The Russian Advance. — Looking to the left to
wards the gorge, we beheld six compact masses of
n,v*j,-.inM i v.wi* juat utAiouenea irom
the mountain pass near Tchernaya, und were slow
ly advancing with solemn stateliness up tho valley.
Immediately iu thoir front was a regulur line ot
artillery, oi at loast twenty pieces strong. The
batteries of light guns wero already a mile in ad
vance of them, and wore playing with energy on
the redoubts, from which feeble putt's of brnoko
came at long iutcrvals. Bchina these guns iu
front of the infantry were enormous bodies ol
cavalry. They wore in wix compact squares, three
on each flunk, moving down en enchelon towards
us, aud tho vaij/j was lit up with the blaze of.
thoir sabres points, and gay aocou' re
ments. Iu their front, and extending along the
mtervals.botween each battery of guns, were clouds
oiTncunted skirmishers wheeling and whirling in
the front of their march, likoa uturnn leaves tott ed
b> tho wind. The Zouaves close to us were ly
ing like tigers at the'spring, with luady rifles in
1 and, hidden chin deep by the oartiiAorks which
run aid g tho due oftueeo ridges onoar roar, but
the quick-eyed Russian* weru mance'.veriug on
the other wide oi the valley, aud did not cxp&so
their columns to attack. Bulow tho Zouaves we
coaid see chu Turkish gunners in the rodoubts all
in confusion as the shot burst over them. Just
as 1 came up tho Russians had carried No. 1 re
•ioub:, the furthest and most elev.oted of all, and
their horsemen were chasing the Turks across
the interval whioii lay between it and redoubt
No. 2.
Our Cavalry.—the Russian Bxiemilhers. —
Flight of the Turks. —At that moment the caval
ry, under Lord Lucan, wore formed iu glittering
masses; the light brigade, under Lord Cardigen,
inadvanco; the heavy brigade, under Brigadier-
General Scarlet, in reserve. They were drawn up
just iu front of the encampment, and wero con
cealed from the view of tho enemy by a slight
‘wave” in tho plain. Considerably to the roar of
their right the 93d Highlanders wero drawn up in
line, in front of tho approach to Balaklava. More
behind thorn, on tho lioights, the marines weio
visible through tho gla.ia, drawn up undar arms,
and the gunnels could ne seen ready in the earth
works, in which wero placed the heavy ships’
guns. The 93-J had oriuginaily been advanced
somewhat more into the plain, but the instant tho
Russians got possession of the first redoubt they
opened firo on them from our guns, wbioh inflicted
sorno injury, aud Sir Colin Campb il “ etired”
his men to a bettor position. Moantime the one
m> advanced his cavalry rapidly. To our inex
pressible disgust wo saw tho Turks in redoubt No.
2 fly at their approach. They ran in scattered
groups acorss tov/ards redoubt No. 8, and towards
Balaklava, but tho horae-hcof of tho Cossack was
too quick for them, and sword and ianc3 wore
busily ax,plied along tho retreating herd. The yells
ot the pursuers and pursued w?.ro plainly audible.
As tho lancers aud light cavulry of the Rassiar
advanced they gaLLorodup their skismiMhcrs with
great speed and in excellent order—the shifting
trails of men, which played over the valley like
moonlight on tho water, contracted, gathered up,
and the litttlo peloton iu a few moments became a
solid column. Then up camo their gunp, in rush
ed their gunners to tho abandoned redoubt, and
the guns of No. 2 redoubt soon played with dead
ly effect upon tho dispiritel.defenders of No. C re
doubt. Two or three eho’.s in return from tho
earthworks, and aii is silent. The Turks swarm
over the earthworks, and run in coifusion towards
tho town, firing ineir muskets as they run at tho
enemy. Again the solid column of cavalry opens
l:ko a fan, and resolves itself into a “long spray”
of skirmishers. 1 laps the flying Turks, and steel
flashes in the air, unci down goes the poor Moslems
quivering on tho plain, ppli’ through fez and mus
ket guard to the chin an l breast belt. There is
no support, for them. It is evident the Rub. ians
have been too quick for us. The Turks have be3n
too quick alto, so. they have not held their re
doubts long enough to enable us to bring them
help. In vain the naval guns on the heights fire
on the Russian cavalry. Tho distance is too great
for shell or shot to reach. In vain tho Turkish
gunners in the earthen batteries which are placed
along tho French entrenchments strive to protect
their flying countrymen. Their shot fly wide and
► hort of tho f warming masses.
Tub Movement, ofCavalrt—TheChakoe is met j
bv the ll ig a lan i, tii.-. — At the Russian cavalry on
the left of their iiue crown the hill, acros ■ t.ie val
ley they percieve the Hlgblnu-'.vr dra.vii up c* the
distance of some halt mile, calm'y within their
approach. Thoy halt, and squadron after .squadron
flies up from tr e rear, till they bave a body of
some 1500 men along the ridge—lancers and dra
goons and hussars. Then they move en edition
in two bodies, with another in reservo. The cav
alry who have been pursuing the Turks on the
right are coming up to the ridge oeneath us, which
oenseals our oavalry from view. The heavy brig
ade in advance is drawn up in two coiutns. The
fir3t oo'timn consists of the Scots Greys, and thofr
old companions in glory, the Enuiskillens; the se
condos the 4.h Royal Irish, of the sth Dragoon
Guards and of the Ist Boyal Dragoons. The light
cavalry brigade is on their left in two divisions al
bo. The silence is oppressive; between the cannon
bursts, one can hear the champing of bits and
the cli.ik of sabres in the valley below. The Bus
sians on their left drew breath for a moment,
and then in one grand line dashed at the High
landers. The ground flies beneath their horse*’
feet—gathering speed at every stride, they dash
on towards that thin red streak, topped with
a iino of Steel. The Turks tire a volley at 800
yards, and run. As the Buasians come with
in 600 yards, down goes that line of stevi in
front, and out rings a rolling volley of Minio Mus
ketry. The distance is too groat. The Eus-ian?.
are not checked, but still sweep onwards with the
whole force of horse and man, through the smoke,
here and there knocked over by nrshof of our bat
teries above. With breathless suspense every
one waits the bursting of,the wave upon the lino of
G„e:ic rock but ere they came witi in 150 yards
another deadly volley dashed from the levelled
rifle, and carries death and terror into, the Rus
sian.-. They wheel aoo. t, opou flies right and
left, and fly back faster than they came. “Bravo
Highlanders I well done,” Bhonted the excited
spectators ; but events thicken. The it ghlandor
aud their splended front are .soon forgotten, men
oca reel v have a moment to th.nk of this tact
the&ai never altered their formation to receive
that tide of horsement. “Mo,” Haid Sir Colin
Campbell, “I did not think it worthwhile to term
them even four deep 1” the ordinary Bitish line,
two deep, wa3 quite sufficient to repel the attack
oftnese Mu.-.ooqite chcvalxicrs.
The Rival Cavaleieb Change—Exciting Move
ments. —Our eyes were however turned in a mo
meat on our own cavalry. We saw Brigadier
General Scarlett ride along in front of his massive
squadrons. Tne Russians—evidently corps d elite
—their light blue jackets embroidered with silver
iace, were advancing on their left, at an easy
gallop, towards the Brow of the hill. A saw
lances glistened in their -ear, and several nw

j told us all that in another moment wc would see
| the shock of battle beneath o"r vary eyes. Lord
! Rag’an, all bii staff* and escort, and groups of
officers, the Z mavc ■, French general* cud cfibers
and bodies of French infantry on the height, were
spectators ot the scene as though they were look
ing ou the. trgo from tho box°s of a theatre.
Nearly every cue dismounted and sat dowD, and
not a word was sa d. The Russians advanced
down tho hill at a slow canter, which they changed
to a trot, utid at last nearly halted. Their first
lino was at least double the length cf ours—it was
three times as deep. Behind them was a similar
liuc, equally strong and compact. They evidently
despised their insignificant looking enomy, but
t.ieir time was come. Tho trumpets rang out
again through tho valley,and the Greys and Eu
uiskillcnors wont right at tho ccntro of tho Rus
sian cavalry.
The space between them wss only a few hun
dred yards ; it was scarce enough to let tho horses
gather way,” nor had the men quite space suffi
cient for the full play of their sword arms. The
Russian lino brings forward each wing as our cav
alry advance andthreatoii to annihilate them
us they pass ou. Turning a iittio to their loft so as
to meet the Russians’right, the Greys rush on with
a °“®®r thut thrills to every heart—tho wild bhout
ol tho Enniakilleners rises through tho air at tho
samo instant. As lightning hashes through a
cloud, tho Groys and Enniskilleners pierced
through the dark masses of Russians. The shock
was but for a moment. There was a clash of steel
and a light play of sword blades in tho air, aud the
Grays and the red coats disappear in the midst of
tho shaken and quivering columns. Iu nuother
moment we soo thorn emorging and dashing on
with diminished numbers and in broken order
against tho second liuo, which is advancing against
thorn at. fast us ii can lo retriovothe forianeWtho
cnarge. It was a terrible moment. “God help
them ! they are lost!” was the exclamation of more
than one man, aud the thought of many. With
unabated fire the noble hearts dashed at their
enemy—lt a hgbt of heroes. The first lino of
, Suye:aae, Which had utterly by
ehargo, and had tied cfT at ouo flank rnd to
wards tho oeutre, wore coming back to nwulJo w up
our handful of men. By sheer steel and sheer
courage Eni< skiUener and Scott were winning
their desperate way through the enemy’s sqivd
rons, and already horses and red couU had
appeared right at tho rear ot tho second mass,
when, with irresisiib*o lorco, like one bolt from u
bow, tho Ist Royals, 4ta Dragoon Guards, and tho
sth Dragoon Guards rushed at the remnants of
toe first line of tho enemy, went through it as
-hough it wore made ot' pasteboard, and dashing
on the second body of Russians, as they were still
disordered by the terrible assault of the Greys and
their companions, put them to otter route.
The Russian horse in less than five minutes af
ter it met our dragoons was flying with all its
speed before u force certainly not half its strength.
A cheer burst from every lip; in tho enthusiasm,
ufficers and men tcok off their caps aud shouted
with delight, and thus hooping up tho scheme
character of their position, tho- clapped their
hands again aud again. Lord Raglan at once
despatched ifiouieuant Carson, aide-de-camp, to
convey his congratulations to brigadier-general
Scarlett, and to say, “ woll done.” Tho gallant
old officer’s face boamed with pleasuro when ho
received the message. li J beg to thank Ilis Lord
siiip very sincerely, ’ was tho reply. Their kra
was very slight Tuero was not more than four
men killed outright, aud our heavy material loss
was irom the cannon playing on our heavy
dragoons afterwards, when covering the rotroat of
our light cavalry.
After tho charge, Captain the non. Arthur Har

news ot what tho cavalry had do. o. lie had been

the English camp ; the second at 2 o’clock, against

the Russians succeeded in spiking their guna. On

villa, Ky., to the Frankfort Yeoman, say.-*:
Kidnapping free negroes in Ohio, and deluding
oar slaves from their masters to recapture and soli
thorn, is an established profession of u gang local
od upon the borders of the Ohio, combining with
negro traders in the interior of this olatc, thereby
boldly conducting a villauious system of p «cy,
heretofore unknown in the annals of crime in Kon
tuoky.
On Friday morning this community was appris
ed of the fact, through the agency of colored per
sons, that u free negro girl was forcibly taken from
Ohio cod brought Ur Kentucky. fin*pinion. ortho
state!no;its of the negreos (wi icli is not evidence
in Kentucky) proved that Lewi*. Alleft, and lien*
ry Young, of this county, wore tho individuals in
whoaa possession tho girl was lound.
Arrests were made, our best and prominent
citisens turning oat to capture tho rogues. Lewis
and Allen Young were forcibly taken by the pea*
pie from prison aim delivered to the author!‘ieo of
Ohio, where they will bo disposed of as the aggra
vating merits of the case deserve. Henry Young
is detained for trial on this aide. Thus this suf
fering community i., to bo rid of threo brothers
whose bold career of crime was a terror to the
peace and safety of the public.
Lew:.* and Henry Young openly boast of thoir
determination to burn the eiry. They confess it
to f o t.oir source of livelihood to • a free negro
or do oy otirsluveb and sc‘- them to negr > t/aders.
