considering the moral and physical rcsult of
such defeat upon the remnant Of his army,
it may be doubted whether the Russian
General can attempt TO make any further
stand on the north side of the harbor.
These great events terminate the siege of
Scbastopol, properly called, for the allied
armies have achieved within the last three
days the grand object Of their enterprise.
They have wrestel from the whole military
power of Russia fortress which she had
converted into a place of extraordinary
strength, and defended with innumerablc
hosts Of her best troops. They have ami
hilated the naval power on which she re-
lied to secure her supremacy in the Euxne,
and to establish her authority from the
Caucasus to the mouths of the Danube
But above all thcy have shown the seryile
and credulous nations of the East that the
Powers now paramount in the world, are
not those of faDaicism and barbaric abso.
lutsm, but those Of liberty and of ciyilza-
ton. In this struggle, Sebastopol became
ot once tho tost or strorc,,b and i,,o ro,,.,.l
Of victory. To reduce it by force Of arms
was to overthrow that colossal fabric OF
Russian influence, which \ century and q
half Of rarne and intrigue had called into
