What is to be the Fate Of Sebas.
sig t0pol?

The fate OF Sebastopol is now pretty
generally admitted TO be questionable.
Even the London Times, which so conf
IDENTIFY predicted its fall in six weeks after
the arrival of the Allies. now explains the
failure as being caused by circumstances
which no human foresight could have anti
cipated, and states. upon what it consid.
srspretiy good authority, that "Sebastopol
viii be taken at all hazards" This is
one side of the question. On the other
hand it is claimed that almost every move.
ment of the Allies has been blunder, and
every victory disaster. The correspon.
dent Of The Baltimore Sun, writing from
Consiantinople says:
The question Of the capture Of Sebas-
topol is no longer q mooted one here; bu,
the safety Of the Allies causes the creates,
anxiety. The effects Of the battle Of In
KERN ann have been most disastrous TO the

THE aLADIEs' MAN"
'BY DAVID BANKER, hse.


Who is "adies' man 2" Not he,
The &C dem foine, oart-begotteh fop,
Who lives through life devolee
To dancing ball and tailor's shop;
Who lacks for ballast nor for BaitA
Whose beard arouud the place be chews,
Is like kink in puppy's tail,
For ornament and not for use.
He cannot be ladies, man."
Who dreams that for world OF gold
The love of woman can be won,
Or virtue can be bought and sold.
Nor he a /" ladies' man." ween,
Who dares assert, or dares expect,
That trappings can be made to screen
The poverty ot intellect
He is Of &c ladies' man" The kind
Who lives 10 learn, and learns 10 prize
The sterling briancy of mind
Beyond :he briliancy ofeyesJ
Who feels that purity and love,
That native modesly and taste
Are gems which man should hold above
The small circumference Of waist;
Who knows that all The toys on earth,
The pride of rank the power of might,
Are always tipped BY moral worth,
When weighed upon the scales of'rght.
He is a ladies' man"--ihe BEST
Who, tho,sh be tolls at sledse or cart,
Has got something in his breast,
The dictionary calls a heart.
