ACCORDING to a local letter publish
ed by the Odessa Messenger, it is
still uncertain whether SebastopoI is
to be restored as a military harbor
or converted into harbor of com
merce. The Commander-in-chie of
the fleet aud ports of the Black Sea
had recently visited the place and
had made a careful inspection of the
town and IT'S environs. The railway
which is to connect Sebastopol with
the Odessa-Kieff-M Moscow line is be-
ing rapidly completed, the city be-
comes more animated every day, and
the answer to the question, ''What is
to be done with Sebastopol % is
anxiously expected. The general
opinion seems to be that Sebastopol
will be made both a military and a
commercial port, and that new forti-
fcatiOns and new docks will, at the
same time, be constructed.
In THE days when man was every
thing and woman nothing, it was
correct enough to say "a person,
whatever his beliefs may be, can do
so and So" But, as woman has
forced her way up, she has rebelled
against the masculine possessiVe, and
demanded that we should use the
phrase Whatever his or her be-
iefs may be-, That is not only
cumbrous, but unmelodius. We are
not, however, prepared to endorse
the remedy proposed by an eccentric
philologist. He says THAT a new
word should be formed, equivalent
to CHS or her, and suggests ''hizer
as the most suitable one. This by
brid is to be declined "Hesh, bizer,
himer." The circular which con-
tains this proposition closes with the
words: Should this addition be &C
ceptable to persons speaking and
writing the English language, I will
subsequently propose a number of
new words as analogous improve
ments." Fer the sake of preventing
any analogous Improvements" we
trust that all persons speaking and
writing the English language will
hasten to signify how unacceptable
