THE PROSPECT 1M TaE cRrmEA


Fhe following extract from a letter of the
special correspondent of the ", o. Pieqyune,
at Washington, eorroborates the view hereto
fore taken by US, that the latest movements of
the Allied forces in the Crimes we're dictated
more with an eye 10 their own safety than for
the purpose Of assaulting, the fortress Of Sc
bastopol: sila
have conversed recently with distinguished
military men, who fear that disaster awaits
the Allied armies before Se5astopol, far great
er than the victories 50 falsely ascribed to
them. We are told that Sebastopol is COM
'pletely invested by the sAlles and yet the
very nearest point to Sebastopol at which we
have any evidence that a British or French
soldier is to be found, is distant fourteen miles
Now if the Allies have surrounded the city, as
We are given to understand, their lines must
'bc over 100 miles in length, that being a neccs-
sary result if radius OF the circle is fourteen
miles long The idea is preposterous. But.
ftf iher: If YOU will scan a map Of the seat OF
war, you will find that in investing Sebastopol,
the Allies leave the enemy in their rear, to
cut them oil in a retreat, or aid in surround
ing them. This Is geographical necessity
Is it to be supposed that the Gar will not avail
himself of this opportunity, and send down a
large force upon the rear Of an expedition
whose plans and purposes have been trtmpeted
fer weeks past While from the bottom of nay
soul pray-not for The success Of the Allies,
but for the defeat Of the Czar-I must confess
there is not a little reason 10 fear that sad
catastrophe awaits the Alliel arms, catas
trophe that can be arrested by Little loss than
