"The Paris Moniteur contains remarkable off,
cial document explaining the military conduct Of
the allied governments since the commencement
OF the war.
..Galpoli was occupied TO prevent the march Of
the Russians on Constantnople, but the retreat Of
the Russians from Sistra rendered the occupation
Of Galpoli and Varna unnecessary. The allies
were unable to operate in Bessarabia without the
aid Of Austria; and the campaign against Sebasto-
pol was undertaken In order not to remain mac
tive. The immense difficulties of the siege are
| then pointed out, exonerating the Emperor Napo-
leon as the planner of the campaign. This docu-
ment caused much excitement, and was considered
as an apology for raising the siege soon."
