and displayed that high courage, that gallant spirit, for
which the British soldier is ever distinguished, and
under the heaviest fire they maintained the same
determination to conquer as they had exhibited before
they went into action. I should be wanting in my
duty, my Lord Duke, if I did not express to your Grace,
in the most earnest manner, my deep feeling of gratitude
to the officers and men of the Royal Navy for the
invaluable assistance they afforded the army upon this,
as on every occasion where it could be brought to bear
upon our operations. They watched the progress of the
day with the most intense anxiety; and, as the best way
of evincing their participation in our success, and their
sympathy in the sufferings of the wounded, they never
ceased, from the close of the battle till we left the
ground this morning, to provide for the sick and
wounded, and to carry them down to the beach; a
labour in which some of the officers even volunteered to
participate,—an act which I shall never cease to recollect
with the warmest thankfulness. I mention no names,
fearing I might omit some who ought to be spoken of;
but none who were associated with us spared any
exertion they could apply to so sacred a duty. Sir
Edmund Lyons, who had charge of the whole, was, as
always, most prominent in rendering assistance and
providing for emergencies.

"I enclose the return of killed and wounded. It is,
I lament to say, very large; but I hope, all
circumstances considered, that it will be felt that no life was
unnecessarily exposed, and that such an advantage could
not be achieved without a considerable sacrifice.

"I cannot venture to estimate the amount of the
Russian loss. I believe it to have been great, and such is
the report in the country.

"The number of prisoners who are not hurt is small;
but the wounded amount to 800 or 900. Two general
officers, Major-General Karganoff and Shokanoff, fell
into our hands. The former is very badly wounded.

"I will not attempt to describe the movements of the
French army; that will be done by an abler hand; but it
is due to them to say that their operations were
eminently successful, and that, under the guidance of
their distinguished commander, Marshal St. Arnaud,
they manifested the utmost gallantry, the greatest
ardour for the attack, and the high military qualities
for which they are so famed.

"This dispatch will be delivered to your Grace by
Major Lord Burghersh; who is capable of affording
you the fullest information, and whom I beg to recommend
to your especial notice."
