JUNE 9 (MOBNING).
The night passed quietly—that is to say, as far as attacks:
on either side were concerned—but the shelling was exces-
sively heavy during the whole time.
Russian prisoners and deserters represent their losf
s in
these battles as enormous. 25,030 men are spoken oas
their loss since the reopening of the bombardment ;
15,000
alone doting the attack the other day.
There is a truce to-day for the burying of the dead on
both sides.

A PICTURE OF WAS AND IS•

The photograph js in daily use now under the bright
sun of the Crimea. We who have been sitting at houae
under the grey sky, which has hidden the summer hsun
from us till now, please ourselves with thinking of the
sun-pictures which may be gratifying the eyes of our •

countrymen in old Taurida, and with seeing in

There was the 'bright, handsome town of lertch, en°
day lately. What a picture it must have been when the
townspeople were about their ordinary business, and the'
ladies were abroad in the streets, shopping and reskingi:
visits, to talk about what was doing at the other end of
the peninsula, as if 'it were in a far country—so cenfie
