mally summoned Sehas;opol to surrender
requiring the women, children aud sick to

SO lar as Is known, the Russian army is
concentrated on the upper Belbck, and al
ready numbers $4,000 nen.
The allied armies are divided into siege

accessible only from two points, the raylne
of Tohcrnaya on the northwest, and the

Letters of the 18th say that the nature
Of the ground around Sebastopol, hard rock

in battery, and after few days lombard
ment will attempt to storm the fortress.
The Garrison of Sebastopol is estimated
at 10000 men, who have plenty of ammu-
milton and supplies. 1t is supposed that,
even should the allies carry the town, the
Russians could make protracted resist
ance III Fort Constantine. 1t Is true that
the Russians have sunk eight ships across
the channel, seven hundred yards wide,
and that line of battle ship is anchored
close to the shore, completing strong bar
ricade. Altogether, the prospect ofa speedy
fall of Sebastopol IL not 50 favorable TO the
