to prove that the Allies should abandon the
siege of Sevastopol, because the taking of the
town will involve sacrifice dispropOrtionate

the Cabinet of Berlin dispatch, dated the

present situation, and asks for that OF Prussia.
similar communication is to be addressed to
the other German Governments. 1t is hoped
that an understanding will become to between

our ablest and most gallant Captains Of war,
publicly stated that he would stake his life and
all he possesses on earth, that Lord Dundonad
would destroy Sweaborg within as hours after
his arrival there, without loss Of life to the AL
lies, and at cost not exceeding four hundred
thousand pounds. This may be possible, but
there must be better management than has
been exhibited heretofore.
