IMPORTANT NEWS PROM EUROPE.

The telegraph this morning furnishes the meagre details
OF one OF the most important which have occurred n
Europe during the present century After siege of one
year after expenditure Of almost untold millions and
after sacrifice both sides Of least two hundred
thousand men, Sebastopol has faIlenf We make this
announcement with certain mental reservations, based
upon the previously -reported successes OF the allies
The account which has reached Ia altogether one
sided and prepared doubtless in that spirit Of pardon
able exaggeration which victory is wen calculated TO
inspire 1t may be that the south side only Of Sebastopo
generally anticipated has fallen and that The Rus
SLAMS still able show defiant front the north side
ii the which publish elsewhere IL must be
conceded that the allies have wresied from Russian less than
years shat has that power century of and
diplomacy to secure The Russians represented bnv
ing evacuated Sebastopol after laying the city in ruins
and to be in full retreat followed by large division Of
the allied force flushed with victory and bent upon the
complete subugation of the whole Of the Crimea.
The css both sides is roughly estimated at thirty
thousand men In killed and wounded, which would lead
TO the inference that there upwards of two hundred
thousand men engaged in the assault and defence. The
loss although frighully large, does not equal the loss
sustained in several of the great battles in which the first
Napoleon engaged At the battle of Waaram, the
Aus,rans lost "a 900 and the French 10000 At the
battle of Waterloo the loss both sides fully 10000
men.
Since the above in type, have received second
despatch Of the steamers news which, although not as
paRor definite could be desired renders il possible
that the victory Of the allies not complete as over
wheInng represented in the first despatch The Rus
according this despech still in possession Of
the north side of Sebascpol and if they show as mach
vaor and determination in its defence they have shown
the south side months may yet eapse before Sebastopo
has really fallen.
