Tho London rimes says tho Cannonade in the
Crimea last October, was trilling to that of
April ; and the engagement of April was sur
passed by the days which preceded tho capture of
Mamolon ; hut all this will sink into rather insig
nificance when compared with tho iron tempest
which will shortly rage around the besieged city.
Tho weight and range of the guns and positions
of the batteries, have only been won by the
steady progress that lias marked tho opera
tions of the Summer, and will try the endurance
of tho Russians to the utmost.
The great scale on which such a bombardment
is carried on, with extensive preparations neces
sary for its execution, render the delays which
have preceded it matters of little surprise
The chief engineer, Todleben, in Sebastopol,
lias lmd erected, with much skill, a new
strong-fort, which commands tho Malakolf tower.
The guns on this new fort are of the heaviest
calibre, and such ns would prevent the allies
from holding the Mnlaknfl, should they take it.
