THE NORTH SIDE of SEBASTOPOL to be
TAKEN.—The plans of operation not being made public, but
general impression existing that successful measures will soon be
adopted, it is the north and wintery side of the Russian fortifications
Which will next fall before the Allies, and flirnish another instance
of military skill and perseverance. The attack on the south has
succeeded, and the surrender of the forts has revealed valuable mill.
tary provisions. By the force of comparison every one will perceive
the analogy between these circumstances and the business of E.
SUSSES and SON. The success of their summer campaign has been
fully attested, and has revealed the vast commercial forces they
command. The light, the waterproof, the attractive, and the gen-
tlemanly garments, which have been so approved, have risen above
all criticism, and left every one vocal in praise of the generalship of
E. Mons and Sox. The Autumn and Winter season approaches ;
the opponents of personal comfort must again be combatted ; the
resources are ample and the arrangements complete.
The Kertch Jacket and the Emperor's Cape, in which the materi-
als are seasonable, the designs popular, the effect highly satisfactory,
comfort secured in every way by these garments, and by thousands
of oilier elegant and novel inventions. The north completely con-
quered with superlative Dress, Hosiery, Boats and Shoes, &c., &c.,
at extraordinarily economical prices.
' Every article of Attire required by Sportsmen is furnished by E.
Mons and Sox. Their Sporting Dress is the most comfortable and
easy Novel in materials and design, it imparts a graceful appear-
ance and maintains universal approbation.
Hata and Caps for Sportsmen of the most novel and serviceable
order.

The largest stock of Boots for sporting excursions, of very supe-
rior materials and workmanship, at very reasonable prices.
Hosiery for Sportsmen, the newest articles in the greatest variety.
Prizes always very economical.
Sportsmen in the country can obtain their dress complete, in an
inimitable fit, by application for E. MOSES :tad Son's system of self-
Measurement, sent post free to all parts of the kingdom.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
Public against imposition, having learned that the nntradesman-like
falsehood of "Being connected with their Establishment," 'or "
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and fer
obvious reasons. They beg to state that they have
