SUPPLEMENTS GRATIS WITH THE "DISPATCII,"—The
unexampled interest which attaches to every incident
connected with the operations of the Allied Armies in
the East has determined the proprietors of the Weekly
Dispatch to devote a greater space to the intelligence
from the seat of war than the ordinary limits of this the
largest newspaper could possibly afford, and, with the
view of giving the amplest details, have resolved upon
the issue of a series of Supplements, which will include
every particular connected with the Siege and decision of
the Contest at Sebastopol, and will be continued when-
ever demanded by the progress of the campaign. Ey
the publication of these Supplements the portion of the
paper usually devoted to incidents of domestic and poli-
tical importance will be reserved intact, and the engross-
ing subjecti of war will.receive the fullest and most vs.ried
illustration. A. Supplement will be publised on Sunday
Nokerabor,lBo3.
