NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. rantee the territorial independence of Turkey. Again, the second object of the Third Point was to put an end to the preponderance of Russia in the Black Sea ; but here Russia answers that her maritime superiority arose only from her for mer treaties, and from th e i so l a ti on o f th e P or t e , a nd that it lay at the choice of Turkey to turn the balance of maritime , power in the Black Sea to her own advantage. At one mo ment it suits the policy of Russia to represent Turkey as a dying man, and at another to speak of her as a formidable rival, though, at least, she cannot be both. The ascendancy of Russia iu the Black Sea is of recent date, but it is not the less complete, for she owes it to the conquests which in the last cequry and in 1813 wrested from the Ottoman Empire the northern shores of those waters. The geographical char acter of that coast, the course of the great rivers, the posses sion of Sebastopol, and even the prevailing winds and cur rents of the Euxine, all concur to give to the great northern empire, which extends from the Danube to the Caucasus, an overwhelming preponderance over that State which still holds the Bulgarian and Asiatic coast. The Russian has accumu lated all the means of attack ; the Turk cannot even boast of an efficient means of defence at the mouth of the Bosphorus. The attempt to show that the Ottoman em pire is not exposed to danger from the Russian fleet is a bareaced imposition on the credulity of Europe ; and if the Russian vessels had sailed for Constanti nople with 20,000 men on the day after Prince Menschikoff's return from his mission, the Emperor Nicholas would have realised his predictions. If ever Europe again leaves Russia in a condition to strike such a blow the opportunity will not a second time be throw". away. But Prince Gortschakoff went even further. He argued that the existence of the maritime power of Russia in the Black Sea might, become essential for`the protection of Turkey against the fleets of England and France, and that if the Black Sea were disarmed there would be no security against the action of those Powers upon Constantinople. It is difficult to imagine a grosser sophism. England and France are cordially united for the defence of Turkey, but they cannot be united against her, and if, by an improbable change in events, one of those Powers were in arms, as in 1807, against her, the other would become the more closely allied to her; yet, with extraordi nary inconsistency, after having adverted to this danger of an attack on Turkey by the Western navies, Russia proposes in the next sentence that the Straits should be opened to ships of war of all the Powers I So that in the course of this paper; destined to show in what manner Russia would allow her own maritime preponderance to be abated, she argues—first, that she has no necessary•maritime preponderance at all in those waters; and, secondly, that the weakness of Turkey is such that the maritime power of Russia is needed to protect her from the aggressions of the Western Powers. This is what the Russian Plenipotentiaries call" uniting their efforts to put the scheme in operation with frankness and sincerity." We Say, on the contrary, that to offer these extravagant asser tions and arguments to the Conference in satisfaction of the just demands of Europe was to violate the spirit of the letter of that moral engagement which Russia had deliberately con tracted on the opening of these negotiations. What, then, does •the position of Austria become f The Cabinet of Vienna does not dispute that from the Bth of ' August to the 26th of April the proposals of peace were fairly discussed on the basis and in the manner indicated by the Austrian Minister. Count Buol distinctly declared that the Emperor's mind was made up to adhere, at all risks, to his engagement with the Allied Powers; and he stated in closing the Conference that the Russian counter-propositions did not contain any satisfactory solution of the difficulty. We are entitled therefore to assume that Austria has not changed her ground, and that she is entirely with us iu principle ; but we have no certainty, and, indeed, it is a matter of great doubt, whether she is or will be with us in action ; in other words, the risk appears to her too great ; the stake is too .... The Britannia, 120, was placed in dry dock at Ports mouth yesterday to complete her fit out as an hospital Hands have commenced building the newly-designed scrov-corvette Cadmus, 20, in Chatham dockyard, where the Childers, 12, Commander Hickley, is now far ad vanced in her equipment and will be undocked the neat spring tides ; she will shortly after proceed to Sheerness, and thence to Spithead and China. The hospital ship Belleisle, 6, Commander James Hosken, sailed from Plymouth Sound for the Baltic, yesterday morning. The transport Dunbar, Captain Scott, sailed on Wednesday with a detachment of Poles for the Black Sea. The Gorgon, 6, paddlewheel sloop, Commander R B. Crawford, arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from Woolwich with boilers for her Majesty's yacht. She will convey a flotilla of gunboats to the Black Sea. ( From the Times of this day.) In the common acceptation of the word "prejudice" it is confined to matters of taste or theoretical opinion. It is, however, just as often a prepossession as to matters of fact, and is quite as injurious in that shape as in any other. For this we do not want a better illustration than several tho roughly false butinveterate opinions held by nearly all Eng ' lishmen about the military power of tl , e States engaged in the present war. People used to speak, - and indeed speak now, about Russia as having a* almost innumerable popula tion ; as overrun with populous tribes ; as ready to pour hordes over Europe ; as inexhau s tibl e ; as having nothing so ' cheap as men, and so forth. England, on the contrary, and even France, were supposed to be comparatively States, in which men could be counted, were precious, and easily ex , hausted. But how stands the fact ? First, that England alone, without either France or Turkey, is no slight antago nist to Russia, even in mere numbers ; for, while the British Isles contain, in a compact and available position, thirty-six millions, the utmost that All the Russias contain in the half of two continents is only sixty millions, a large proportion of them almost unproducible. But England and France to gether are quite equal in population to the whole of Russia ; and, with Turkey, immensely superior. Such is the value of one prejudice. Another was and is that England has no re serve. She hai an army, it is true, but one that is so widely 'and seriously occupied that when some 50,000 men had been sent to the war the only reserve w as th e Militia, which has yet to be embodied and trained. When this supply threatened ,to be scanty the next chance was a foreign legion. Now, what is the fact ? Sir E. PerrYslrill answer for us. There is now in India an army of nearly half a million of men at the disposal of this country. In that army there are about 30,000 Europeans belonging to the Queen's service, in cluding cavalry and infantry of the Line ; and 40,000 European troops .'..n the Company's service, of every arm, except cavalry. The exact aggregate which Sir of Ers kine has ' made out is 457,000 men, w ith 12,000 o ffi cers , a a s i n thist a i n ed army at maya n expense be, re sources of India, and might easily b e i ncrease d , espec i a ll y from the warlike tribes lately added to our d om i n i on . H ere , then, is a reserve, and an ample reserve, w e ll o r ganised, offi cered and generally with some experience of war . How could csonsdtl my it be said that we had no reserve ? Of this immense force 70,000 are British soldiers. Of the rest, the irregular native cavalry is just the force we most require in the war, and can not supply from home. Here, then, is everything that we want for our present necessity—numbers, organisation, disci pline, European courage and talent in all its developments, practical experience in all its forms —in fact, the substance of all that we have been accustomed to ascribe to Russia, and to reckon as her superiority over the Western Powers. When such is the fact, and such the prejudice, and when, too, we practically disregard the fact, and realise the prejudice, Sir Erskine Perry has taken, as it appears to us, a very reason able course in moving for a committee "to consider how the army in India may be made most' available for the war in Europe, and to inquire into the steps necessary to be taken if it should be deemed expedient to constitute the army of • the East India Company a Royal - army." - We must confess to a great regret, though perhaps no great surprise, that such a motion, in the present state of this country and the present prospects of the war, should be thrown out by a decisive ma jority. As the progress of the war is only too likely to make the question of reinforcing our army in the East very serious and urgent, not to say vital, we wish our legislators would go a little below that smooth surface of commonplace topics in which such such spelkers as Sir JaS. Hogg would wish to keep them; There are some grave considerations, as it happens, peculiar to the condition of this country, bearing on the sup ply of our army, on our military strength, and our very ex istence as a military power. The British Isles contain, it is true, 28,000,000 of inhabitants.; but no people in the world suffers so great and continual a drain of men for pur poses calling them from home, and withdrawing them from the physical strength of the country. Most other countries have their armies and their chief enterprises within their own borders. We send out swarms, in which the males greatly preponderate, to our colonies and to America. We have the largest navy and mercantile' marine in the world. Great part of our army is distributed over many colonies and dependencies. In particular, as Sir E. Perry states, there are 70,000 British soldiers, in one form or another, assisting to preserve our Indian empire. As some measure of the total number of men withdrawn from our defences at home and from our European exigencies, there were at the last census of the British Isles 713,366 more women than men, being a greater disparity of the SCX3S than is to be found in any other country of the world. This, too, happens in a country where thero is more profitable employment for men than in any other, and where all these demands conspire to aggravate the difficulty of recruiting our armies. Now, with what reason can we talk of Russia's immense population and our own early exhaustion? With what justice can we say we have done our utmost when we have sent out 50,000 men ? Here, then, comes prejudice—if we are to continue in the plan of constantly supplying a large army to a distant dependency awl weakening our position at home, without taking proper steps to qualify the constant and systematic damage we are doing to ourselves, we shall certainly pay for such folly in the long run, for while we are grasping at the Indian shadow we shall lose the European reality—that is substance, shadow 1 and all. THE WHITE SEA SQUADRON. The White Sea squadron, Meander, 44, Capt. Baillie ; Ariel, 9, screw ; and Phcenix, 9, screw, left the Downs yesterday, for the Baltic. hazardous to be lightly played for. The military occurrences of the last three months, the hardships of the winter cam paign, the unexpected duration of the siege of Sebastopol, the, reports current in Europe of the losses sustained by the Allied armies, and the evident resolution of both France and England to concentrate all their efforts for {he present on the Crimea, have undoubtedly had the effect of rendering Russia more arrogant and Austria less bold. We had all along foreseen that the Conferences of Vienna would p • ove altogether abor tive, unless some military achievement occurred in the in terval to decide these questions which the sword once drawn can alone determine ; but until the French and English armies in the Crimea have shown that they are fully able to accomplish what they have undertaken we neither inspire sufficient fear to our enemies nor sufficient confidence to our allies. The mystification of these Conferences and the langour of some of our adherents' may all be traced to the want of energy and activity manifested by the Government, and before we can compel Russia to be in earnest in making peace we must prove that we are altogether in earnest in making war. But, if any further justification of the war be needed, it will be found, in spite of Lord Grey, in the papers now laid before the country. We shall not repeat here what we have often urged be fore, on the gross injustice and fatal impolicy of rejecting the ready aid of Indian talent, Indian experience, and Indian organisation to supply the utter want of those qualities at the war ; nor need we, as Sir E. Perry has done it so well. We will rather assist his argument by impressing upon the attention of our readers the broad fact of this so-called small country, in the midst of its many calls, always supplying 70,000 soldiers to India, and not receiving in return one sol dier to replace that vast drain. No country ever acted on that system before, or could do so, without throwing away its influence at home. All former empires that ever pretended to hold distant countries in subjection made a fair exchange of armies, so that while Italians were holding Britain, or Numi dia, or Dacia, Britons, Numidians, and Dacians were sta tioned In Italy, and even supplying candidates to the Impe rial purple. Whatever the final results, the Roman Empire would not have lasted ten years without that interchange. At this moment Russia is carrying on the war with forces drawn from the heart and extremities of Asia, as well as from the most northern shores of Enrope, either directly en gaged in the Crimea or replacing the troops sent there. Rus sia could not carry on the war without doing so ; and when we talk thoughtlessly of her overpowering population it is these distant regions that we are unconsciously thinking of. Our case is the same as Russia's, only we have not got the sense to see it, and shall not see it till our eyes have been opened and our wits quickened by a succession of disasters. We have attained to an empire by a sort of accident without attaining to imperial minds, and in some respects are about as much at fault in our position as Saecho Panza in his king dom of Barataria. The fact is, we are governed by cliques, re presented by such men as Sir James Weir Hogg. There is an Indian clique, and a Military clique, and a Naval clique, and a Landowners' clique, and a Whig clique, and a Lawyer's clique, and some other cliques, and other people who represent the feelings, if not always the real interests, of the several classes ; but the very last thing understood, or even recegnised in this country, is, that we are an empire, the largest in the world, as well as the most populous, the richest, the most various, and the most united in its interests. That the House of Clmmons should deliberately sanction the idea that we can go on for any length of time keeping 70,000 British soldiers in the East, and a good many in other parts of the world, besides our navy, without borrowing soldiers in return, while we are taking an active part in a great Euro pean war, shows how little that body has risen to the sense of its own " imperial" character. The case is not one of etiquette, nor is it one of military precedence and pay ; it concerns something snore than the feelings of the Horse Guards, or even the present convenience of the East India Company; it is a question of imperial necsssity. It will ride over scruples and break through regulations. It will compel the notice of Governments and constrain a divided and reluc tant Legislature. We shall see before long with the sharp eye of calamity that empires can only be sustained by mutual giving and taking, and that if we would remain a leading Power in Europe, and a dominant Power anywhere else, we must replace in Europe the men we send to Asia. (Fr•ot. the Times of this day.) The singular motion of which Lord Grey gave notice last night in the House of Lords wil bring under the review of Parliament the conditions of peace lately discussed at Vienna, and we await win entire confidence the all but unanimous verdict of both the L rds an i Commons on this issue. While, however, these debates are impending in the assemblies of the Legislature, it is desirable that the country should thoroughly ”nderstand the nature of the proposals made by the allies and the artifices by which they were defeated. The memorandum of the 28th of December, 1854, which is pre fixed to the protocols of the subsequent Conferences at Vienna, states in very plain and explicit terms the bases ou which the negotiation was opened, and the objects which the allied Powers have undertaken to effect. It included the tot•a.l abolition of the Russo-Turkish treaties with reference to the Principalities, by providing th a t none of the stipulations contained in them should be . re vived at the peac ; it stated that, in order to secure the free navigation of tha Lower Danube, the channel of the river should be withdrawn from the terri torial jurisdiction existing by virtue of Article 3 of the Treaty of Adrianople ; it proposed to connect the Ottoman empire more closely with the balance of power in Europe, and to put an end to the preponderance of Russia in the Black Sea ; and lastly, to cause Russia to renounce her claim to an official protectorate of the Christian subjects of the Sultan belonging to the Eastern Church, and to surrender all the articles of former treaties on which that claim was founded. These terms I were framed by France and England, adopted in the most formal manner by Austria, and accepted by R uss i a as the basis of negotiation. The whole question of the conduct of the several Powers in the course of this transaction reduces itself therefore to this,---whether they adhered with sincerity and honour to the principles they had laid down, and whether they were prepared to act on the solemn declarations they had made. As far as England and France are concerned, we presume that it will not be contended by Lord Grey that these Powers retracted or evaded any of the concessions they had announced their intention to make, but that, on the con trary, they carried their conciliatory policy ienetdio t gm o ni ntte t io h .tbah e cetot v hess e eedu ri ffiNebnceodfiteoenios. etf, fur thest limit.

Did Russia, then, adhere with this negotiation opened Does Austria adhere with equal t e oi n of t position and the future political relations we shall proceed to consider them succes sively. No portion of these papers has more excited our astonish ment than the Russian document read by Prince Gortscha koff to the Conference on the 21st of April, and numbered " Annex A to Protocol 12." In this communication the Russian Cabinet declares that in accepting the Four Points as a basis of negotiation it has neither concealed from itself their true meaning nor thought of altering it. Yet in the following paragraphs it proceeds to disfigure and evade with the most ovident sophistry the principal conditions of the Third Article. It is true that the ruling idea of the arrange ments proposed is to put an end to the isolated position of •the Qttoman'Empire,•to connect it with the balance of power in Europe, and to bring it within the.. public law of 4he civi lised world ; yet on the very first discussion of this subject Prince Gortschakoff flies off altogether from the engagement offered by the other Powers, not only to respect, but to gm,' MORE CONVERSION S.

TIM MEDWAY TRANSPORT. SOUTHAMPTON, Thersday.—The Medway, wllich left the dock yesterday afternoon with troops and horses for the Crimea, returned this morning at eight o'clock. The cause of her return is owing to her machinery being damaged, a small connecting pipe having burst, &c. It will not be necessary to bring her into dock to remedy the accident, but it is questionable whether she will not be detained in the river until Saturday morning. THE TRANSPORT SERVICE. The Myrtle freight ship left Portsmouth on Wednes day with stores from the Royal Clarence-yard for the fleet in the Black Sea. The Lancashire Witch transport, which left Portsmouth harbour on Tuesday with cavalry remounts for the Crimea, was windbound at St. Helen's last night, as was the Camperdown freight•ship, which left on Tuesday night for Queenstown, to disembark the head-quarters of the 15th Regiment. Her Majesty's steam troop-ship Resolute, which left Liverpool on Wednesday for Kingstown, arrived at that port yesterday morning, having made the run in 12f hours. After embarking horses and troops she would proceed direct to Malta and the Black Sea. The merchant-ship Kate, of about 1,000 tons, was off Plymouth on Wednesday. She had a considerable num ber of passengers on deck, and is said to be from Syd ney. The bark London, of Glasgow, with sulphur, for Newcastle, was near the Eddystone on the same day. The Ellenborough, Captain Thornhill, from Sydney, Jan. 27, with a general cargo, and 40 passengers, landed a mail at Plymouth yesterday afternoon. At the monthly examination of officers in the navy for promotion, and of candidates for entry into the service, which terminated at the Royal Naval' College, Ports mouth, yesterday, the following passed and received certificates of qualification:—Mates R.N., for Lieute nants—Messrs. R. C. Hasler, G. g. Graves, L. Brine, the Hon. E. H. Cecil, T. M. Kelsall, H. W. Mist, A. H. Clair, A. T. Denham, W. F. Legh, J. W. Lambe, and H. J. Marsden. Second Masters, R.N., for Mas ters—D. J.

Dansey, and F. N. Campbell. For Masters' Assistants—A. W. C. Hoseason, L. Ed wards, K. F. Bell, and A. W. Platt. For Clerk's As sistant—J. A. P. Williams. DEATH OF A TRAFALGAR MAN. A gallant and respected naval veteran has died re cently at Southsea—Mr. John Rockwell, one of the few remaining Trafalgar officers, he having been midship man of the Dreadnought, 98, to which two of the enemy's line-of-battle ships struck ; he was aged 82. LIEUTENANT PACK WOOD. The Lords of the Admiralty have marked their esti mation of the finding (dismissal , from his ship) of the court-martial which tried Mr. Packwood, Lieut. of the Cornwallis, on a charge of behaving fraudulently towards his messmates, by appointing him, on the very day they obtained official cognisance of the result of that trial, to the ship bearing the flag of the president of that court martial, whose flag-captain was also a member of the court. MILITARY. 120 invalids disembarked yesterday at Gravesend from the Wellington from Bombay, from different regiments, Captain Campbell in charge. The Wellington proceeded to Chatham. Upwards of 37 men have been sent off from Exeter during the past week to join the Royal Artillery corps. Sixty-one men, with a ser,pairt and Lieutenant Price, belonging to the 11th Hussars, have arrived at Exeter from Ireland, via Plymouth ' • and before they are sent to the seat of war they will be provided with horses. There are now in the same barracks, belonging to the 11th, 46 recruits and 200 horses. In fact, the barracks are filled with horses, large numbers having been pur chased to be trained and forwarded to the Crimea. During the past week between 70 and 80 men of the West Kent Light Infantry volunteered into the regi ments of the Line—viz., 40 into the 10th Foot, 15 into the 44th, and about 20 into the 29th. The places these men are being rapidly filled up by new volunteerofs, who have been easily obtained. On Thursday Captain Lennox's battery of Royal Artillery left Limerick for Woolwioh, whence they pro ceed to Sebastopol to assist the siege train, and to be replaced at Limerick by Captain Boxer's, from Wool wich. There are no less than 80 officers connected with the provisional battalion, composed of the 9th, 17th, 39th, and 89th depots in Limerick garrison, commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel Stack. There are 20 of the above absent upon leave. Lieutenant-General Fleming, C.B. inspected the 16th Lancers, under Colonel Smyth, at Cahir, on Fri day, and was pleased with the effective condition of this distinguished regiment. Its draught of volunteers to the 17th Lancers is not to be equalled by that of any other cavalry in the service. • Lieutenant-Colonel Elmhirst, 9th, left Limerick on Monday to embark at Southampton for the Crimea. Major-General Eden returned to Kilkenny from Clonmel on Fr.day evening, having fully investigated the circumstances of an unfortunate affray between the men of the South Tipperary Artillery and of the depot of the 2d, or Queen's Regiment, in that garrison. There are, it appears, six men, five of whom are soldiers of the 2d, severely hurt by bayonet wounds received in the affray, but none of them are considered to be dangerous. The cause of the affray is stated to have been an idle rumour, which, having originated in a joke, spread abroad most widely, that the men of the 2d had attacked some of the officers of the militia, and had put one of them to death and imprisoned another in the guard house. Absurd as this report was it was believed, in consequence of the Clonmel people having entertained a prejudice against the 2d Regiment, from its character for quarrelling in Waterford having ..preceded it to the former town. General Eden at once removed the depot from Clonmel, sending one detachment to Fethard, and another to Cashel. MILITIA. The men of the 3d Royal Surrey Regiment, which mustered for training on the 21st of April, at Kingston on-Thames, under the command of Lieut.-Col. Challoner, have now attained a, high. degree of proficiency in their military duties. This regiment, which numbers 400 of all ranks, after having passed a large numberof men into the Line, was one of the first of which the officers as a body volunteered for permanent duty, and yet it is said that the regiment is to be disembodied. M. DROUYN DE L'HUYS AND THE VIENNA CONFERENCE. (From the Times of yesterday.) The following is a Paris correspondent's letter, dated yesterday, 6 p.m. : It is considered probable that M. Thouvenel, who has been just appointed Ambassador to Constantinople, will not, after all, proceed to his post, but that he will re main as Under Secretary of the Foreign Department to assist M. Walewaki, the new Minister, who, as I have already mentioned, approved his conduct in resigning his office as Director of Political Affairs at the Foreign-office. Few people are disposed to speak favourably of a fallen Minister ; but, in the present instance, the opinion, which is certainly unfavourable to M. Drouyn de l'Huys, does not seem ill-founded. M. Drouyn de l'Huys, whatever his reason for so doing, ex ceeded or went against his instructions at Vienna. His duty evidently was to discuss the "Four Points "—to examine, with his colleagues, the propositions made by Russia, but not to entertain, much less to pronounce as ad missible, or to promise the sanction of his Government to, propositions emanating from Austria. M. Drouyn de rfluys had been as much opposed as any one could be, up t o a very recent date, to the pretensions of Russia ; and to whatever cause the change is assignable there is no doubt that the course he followed was decidedly contrary to the policy of the two Governments. It is said that the late Minister considers .. himself as unfairry treated, i n deed is, in some s ort, a victim to an earnest desire for peace ; yet no one wo rked more energ e tically than he did in rousing the spirit of resistance to Russia from the very commencement. <~~ CY ______ .__ (Front the Daily News of this day.) Earl Grey has given notice that on Monday week he will call upon the House of Lords to declare that, in their opinion, the proposals made on the part of Russia were of such a nature as might have been acceded to by the other Powers. It is to be presumed that this declaration relates to the pro posals made on the part of Russia with reference to the third point, inasmuch as it was upon them that the Conferences were broken off. These proposals were twofold ; one set were propounded in the 12th Conference, at which the French and English Plenipotentiaries declared that their instructions were exhausted. The other set were propounded at au irre gular Conference, unsanctioned and unrecognised by the French and English Governments, and hell after the Eng lish Plenipotentiary had quitted Vienna. The former are to the effect that the Straits connecting the Black Sea with the Mediterranean should be opened , to the ships of war of all nations ; the latter, to the effect that the Straits should be closed against the ships of war of all nations. That Russia professes its readiness to conclude peace upon either of two arrangements so diametrically opposed to each other, admits only of one interpretation. Russia sees her way to make either the one or the other arrangement conducive to the attainment of her ulterior objects. Russia feels confident that neither the one nor the other arrangement could diminish her preponderance in the Black Sea, or secure Turkey against her aggressive projects. It is clear that the consequences of throwing the, Straits open to the ships of war of all nations, under conditions and restrictions to be settled hereafter, or of closing them against the ships of war of all nations, must depend entirely upon the nature of the other stipulations to be entered into by tho contracting Powers. Now the only other points upon which the negotiators had even appa rently come to an accord, before these alternative pro posals were tendered, were those which relate to the pro vinces of Moldavia, Wallachia, and Servia, and to the free navigation of the Danube. We say " apparently come to an accord ;" for, with reference to the first, almost everything was left to subsequent arrangements to be made by a Commission; and, with reference to the second, Russia had reserved a right to withhold her assent from three of the most essential conditions. The proposals which Earl Grey is of opinion ought to have been acceeded to by the other Powers, mean literally nothing, could have no possible effect, and would leave matters in a state quite ac confused and anarchical as at present. The truth is that the terms and stipulations of any treaty of peace are of much less conse quence than the relative position of the Powers which con clude the peace in respect of resources and ability to continue the war. Russia has not yet been taught to feel her inferiority, and until she has been so taught she will not bind herself to any stipulations that are of the least value to her antagonists. When Russia has been made to feel her inferiority, she will take good care not to provoke a renewal of hostilities, let the terms of the peace then concluded be what they may. This is the guarantee for the future good behaviour of Russia that real statesmen will look for. Earl Grey and the small and crotchetty clique whose mouthpiece he is in the House of Lords would allow themselves to be satisfied with fair words. The protocols of the Conferences of Vienna are now in the possession of the public. As might have been expected, they throw little light on the real motives and aims of the Powers _represented at the Congress. All parties spoke with a consciousuess that Europe—the world —was watching them—and were mere anxious to say nothing that could commit or compromise themselves, than to discuss honestly and exhaustively their differences. Still, several important points may be gleaned from these records. It is clear that Russia never for a moment entertained the idea of making any concession that could give satisfaction or security to Europe. That is nothing but what was expected. A more important point is the strong evidence the protocols afford of the hollow faith of Austria. The Government of Vienna, though bound by the treaty of December to the Allies, stood in a somewhat different position from the belligerent Powers. It had not yet recognised the existence of a casus belli, as contemplated in the treaty. On this account, mainly, the presidency at the Conferences was conceded to the Austrian Plenipotentiaries. A kind of arbitral character was at tributed to them. An attentive perusal of the protocols will show that throughout the discussions Austria, while professing to agree in opinion with the Allies, embraced every opportunity of promoting the objects of Russia. Did the Russian Plenipotentiaries ask for delay, Austria backed them. Did the Russian Plenipotentiaries tender proposals palpably evasive, Austria was ready to swear that, although not exactly what could be desired, they ' contained the " elements" of an old arrangement that might be admissible. Did Russia seek to steal a step by entering upon the discussion of some point, while preliminary ques tions, were yet undecided, Austria . was ready to protest th a t such a mode of proceeding was quite fair and harmless. And when the Conferences were finally broken off, Austria convened a supplementary and irregular Conference to give Russia an opportunity of putting upon record an additional proposal, only meant to give her the appearance of seeking more earnestly for peace than she has really done. The ar bitral power has not held the balance equally between tho belligerents ; it has slily thrown makeweights of its own into the scale of Russia to propitiate that dreaded neighbour. The game of Austria is palpable. She a s pi res, i n concert with Prussia and the other Germanic Powers, to dictate to England, France, Turkey, Sardinia (and any other European Powers who may hereafter join them), and to secure for Russia the best terms possible. There is not a man in Europe, of average common sense, who has followed attentively the progress of the negotiations at Vienna, who does not see this. And yet Lord Palmerston affects to be blind to it. He is as willing as ever to allow Austria to hoOd wink him and lead him by the nose. He invites the Austrian Government to " fool him to the top of his bent." He apes Sir Andrew Aguecheek when the Illyrian Knight requests I Maria to " set her foot upon his neck." When asked last night in the House of Commons whether the negotiations are entirely broken of, Lord Palmerston replied that there are I " the elements of a Conference" still at Vienna, in the per sons of the ministers of Britain, France, Austria, and Turkey ; and that if Russia has any new proposals to make, directly or through the intervention of Austria, there are "elements for receiving them" at Vienna. Lord Palmerston has re called his Plenipotentiary, but he is still open to negotiate through the medium of his elements." Will the country consent to have its interests and honour left to the mercy itself yo l f f Lord Palmerston's " elements?" Will Parliament allow whoh mean to be juggled and evaded by new-coined words nothing ? SYMPTOMATIC. '-‘ Lord. Palmerston grows wondrous civil. - Last night he moved that precedence be given to thc identical motion of Sir, Erskine Perry upon which 'Government not long ago con trived to have the house counted out ; and be managed to find a day for Mr. Layard's motion, after having so super ciliously scouted that gentleman's application for one. = The City meeting of Saturday last is already telling. It has taught the Pre,mier-politeness, if nothings more. Tbe.Atiniiniatntivbr Reformers, if true to themselves, can 'command greater con, cessions than this. " Fine words butter no parsnips," and and mere courtesy ought not to content them. Mr. Layard . -, e - .f --( ~~~ 1 - PRNE SD. at least does not appear to have been captivated by the Pre mier's civility. He looked at the proffered opportunity to bring on his motion much as a watchdog examines a bit of bread held out to hiin bya suspicious stranger, and turned away from it in the same fashion. The hon. member for Aylesbury knows best ; but as it is not so easy for a private member to get a day in the House of Commons', it appears to us that he needed not to have looked his gift horse in the mouth. However, it is well to be wary. Administrative Reformers may be further tried with specious plans of improvement in the organisation of the Government offices ; but even these ought not to induce them to" lay down their arms. Such plans will be valueless without the right men to work them ; they will be mere " vows made in pain as violent as void." The contending factions discern the latent power that slumbers as yet unde veloped in the young association.. Lord Ellenborough's notice of motion for Monday is one bid to conciliate it ; Lord Pal merston's newly-learned civility is another. Lord Ellen borough, though an eccentric, is a clever and dashing debater, and rather popular at present ; but he is linked to the Derby party, and it was Lord Derby who placed the Duke of Nor thumberland at the head of the Admiralty. To succeed, the association must adopt the tactics of the Anti-corn-law League; cry " a plague of both your homes;" and commit itself to neither faction. Upon its keeping itself independent of all ex isting political parties, supporting every good motion made by any of them, but allowing itself to be the instrument of none, depend its hopes of ultimate success.—Daily News.
