THE NORTH SIDE of SEBASTOPOL to be
TAKEN.—The plans of operation not being made public, but
a 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 furnish another instance
of military skill and persevertmee. 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.
.MOSES and SON. The success of their summer campaign has been
fullv attested, and has revealed the vast commercial forces they
command. The light, the waterrroof, 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. MosEs 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 oiler elegant and novel inventions. The north completely con-
quered with superlative Dress, Hosiery, Boets and Shoes, &c., &c.,
at extraordinarily economical prices.
Every article of Attire required by Sportsmen is furnished ►y E.
Moms and Sox. Their Sporting Dress is the most comfortable and
easy. Novel ID materials and design, it imparts a graceful appear-
' ante and maintains universal approbation.
Rats and Caps for Sportsmen of the most novel and serviceable
order.

The largest stock of Boots for sporting excursions, of very supe-
r riormaterials and workmanship, at very reasonable p.:ces.
Hosiery for Sportsmen, the newest articles in the greatest variety.
Prices always very economical.
Sportsmen in the country can obtain net- dress complete, in an
inimitable tit, by application for E. MOSES and Sores 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 " It's
' the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
Obvious reasons. They beg to state that they have
