It is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may he remove 1, and how the evil and its con - equenc es may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any decree of physical infirmity or functional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.

The " Thirsty Soul" and "Constant Reader" of the Times we can also satisfy with our Imperial Measure. interests of Europe has no claim in its hour of peril on the support of those it has abandoned. The severity of her punishment was equal to the magnitude of her fault, and her conduct in the last two years of the war, which gave her a large share of the glory and the spoils of victory in some degree effaced from memory the scandalous insincerity and the deplorable consequences of her former policy. Unhappily, unless the energy of the country can be roused to asserts its independence and its right to a place among the civilised nations of Europe, in_this contest, the Prussian Cabinet appears determined to act on• the. precedent of 1795, rather than on that of 1813, and to separate itself altogether from the cause in which this country is engaged. We have still, however, too much respect•for the sense and patriotism of the Germans to believe that they can resign themselves to play so tame, and at the same time so perilous a part, or to feel indifference when their honour and their interests are so nearly at stake. We are told that already, in Northern Germany, large numbers of persons are repairing to Kiel, in the hope of seeing the magnificent naval armament, which will probably soon be lying in those inland German waters ; and we have no doubt that the in stinctive enthusiasm of the people will be excited by the reflection that this fleet has entered those seas on no hostile errand to Germany. Its presence is the pledge of the opening of the Baltic and the independence of the North. What, on the contrary, would be their position if Russia held by her mari time superiority in the Baltic complete possession of that sea, as she must do if the Western Powers were not resolved to confine her within the shelter of her - ton coasts ? What, again, would be the fate of Dantsic, Stettin, Memel, and Lubeck, if German interests were sacrificed to the demands of Russia, and the whole north coast of Pomerania closed by blockade ? It is impossible that the presence of this fleet should not remind the North Germans that the theatre of war is at their own doors, and that their independence is involved in the success of the Western Powers. It rests mainly with them and their Government to decide whether this war is to be long or short, perilous to Europe, or decisive of the independence of all nations. They have repeatedly challenged us to take the part which befits this country in such au enterprise, and we have reluctantly but resolutely obeyed that call. It remains to be seen whether Germany is still an ally of England or of Russia, for to halt between the two is to forfeit the confidence of both. (Front the Morning Citromicle.) It is impossible to define beforehand, with any degree of accuracy, the objects of the war. The chief desire of the Allies is to secure the peace of Europe against all future attempts at aggrandise ment on the part of Russia. The process of encroachment on the territory of Turkey has been going on for more-than a century ; and the steps by which it has been concluded are marked by the various treaties and conventions which have, from time to time, been imposed on the weaker Power. It follows that one condition of a durable peace must be the revision, if not the abolition, of all the engagements which the Porte has been compelled to contract with the Court of St. Petersbut. The Western Powers would, for the sake of peace have indhced their ally to assent to the restoration of the status quo ante ; but the failure of all negotiation leaves them fully at liberty to resolve on the establishment of a safer and more equitable system. Among other necessary changes, the oppressive Protectorate over Wallachia, Moldavia, and Servia, must be alto agtethsetr. a p b e o t li e s rs h b ed u . rg, l t n h t e he Em ce p le e l;r o a r te d d e c s o cri nv b e e rsa d t t h io o n se s Principalities as having already become dependen cies of Russia ; yet this supremacy was obtained, under colour of conventions by -which, while the Sultan retained the titular sovereignty of the Da nubian provinces, both Governments bound them selves to abstain from interference with 'the inter nal administration. By the separate act annexed to the Treaty of Adrianople, the local authorities were permitted to institute a quarantine along the left bank of the river. This stipulation was carried into effect by the establishment of Russian police stations on the entire frontier ; and all intercourse, either with Turkey or with foreign countries, was systematically discouraged, while the development of the national commerce was impeded by every possible obstacle. Whatever arrangement may hereafter be adopted with respect to the provinces in question, it would be highly inexpedient to renew treaties which have' given rise to abuses so grievous. The claims of Russia to interfere in the affairs of Wallachia and Mol davia were originally founded on provisions very similar in character to those which were contained in the Menschikoff demands, and slightly modified in the Vienna Note ; and as the war has arisen from attempts to extend a local and qualified Pro tectorate to the whole Ottoman Empire, it will evidently be prudent to abolish it with respect to the territories in which it has hitherto been established. The designs of Russia have, however, been for warded by other means, no less insiduous and dan gerous than her attempts at meddling in the in ternal affairs of Turkey. It was considered by the Czar quite as advantageous to urge friendship and protection upon the Porte as to interfere between the Sovereign and the subject. The Christians of the Ottoman Empire have been greatly in error if they have supposed that any re pugnance existed at St. Petersburg to the closest alliance with the Sultan. In 1833, the cele brated Treaty of Unkiar-Skelessi bound the Em peror, at all times, and in whatever cause, to place his whole forces at the service of .the Porte ; and the Turkish Government, in return, only con tracted the obligation to close the Dardanelles, under all circumstances, to foreign ships of war. In other words, the Sultan was induced to re nounce his claim to the support of Europe, and especially of the Western Powers, and bound him self, on all occasions, to adopt the quarrels of his overbearing ally. It was in the hope of isolating Turkey by a separate arrangement of the same kind, that the original Menschikoff convention was ' drawn up ; and, on the condition of treating with Russia alone, the Porte might have obtained terms ostensibly more favourable than' those which were afterwards offered through the Conference of Vienna. In 1853, as in 1833, the Emperor was willing to reward so great and dangerous a conces sion by offering to employ all the forces at his dis posal in maintaining the Ottoman power. - It is impossible to judge whether compliance with this proposal would have purchased a respite from aggression. The Emperor Nicholas was -as suring the English Minister at St. Petersburg that Turkey was on the verge of dissolution, about the same time that his Envoy was urging on the acceptance of the Porte a guarantee against all do mestic or external attacks. Had that guarantee been accepted, it is not improbable that the seizure of Constantinople would eventually have taken place, under the pretext of occupation by an auxiliary force. The jealousy, of Europe might have been less dangerously excited by the com mencement of the new Byzantine Empire under colour of the Sultan's authority, than by avowed projects of spoliation and conquest. Once estab lished on the shores of the Bosphorus, the Russian arm ies would have had comparatively little diffi culty in maintaining their positi on • and the Im perial Mayor of the Palace would ;and engrossed all the powers of Government before openly de claring that the dynasty of Othman had ceased to reign. It is as a precaution against similar dangers hereafter that the Porte has been required to a b s t a i n from negotiating a separate peace with the enemy. N o mere promises, whether contained in a treaty or otherwise, can give any security against a re newal of Russian plots for the subversion of the Ottoman empire. The intrigues which have never been interrupted, except by periodical declarations of war, will certainly b e renewe d on t h e restora tion of peace, unless material impediments are in- terposed by the Great Powers. The statement in the Moniteur, which appeared in our second edi, tion yesterday, only confirms a suspicion which had already been confidently entertained. The rejection, by the English Government, of the Em peror's iniquitous proposals was it seems imme diately followed by efforts to effect the same object by the aid of France ; and the " word of a gentle man" was almost simultaneously pledged, in Lon don, in Paris, and in Constantinople to three incompatible courses o f ac ti on . It is highly pro bable that a further confidential statement was, at the same time, made at Vienna. The acquiescence of Prussia was taken for granted, not, as it appears, without suffi cient reason. Whenever peace is restored, it will be desirable, should it be found practicable, to put an end to a kind of diplomatic activity which has proved utterly inconsistent with the tranquil lity of Europe. It may be thought premature, before the com mencement of hostilities, to'discuss the conditions , on which they may, at some indefinite period, be , • discontinued ; but, in this instance, the terms of TO OFFICERS AND OTHERS.

Although no authentic information has yet been received of the Emperor of Russia's answer to the ultimatum of the Western Powers, and the intelli gence published by several journals on this point has been in anticipation of the event, several cir cumstances of comparatively minor importance mark the steady and gradual progress of events to that catastrophe • which the passions and the ob stinacy of a single man have unhappily rendered inevitable. The announcement contained in this journal that the Governments of England and France had resolved to summon Russia to pledge herself in six days to evacuate the Principalities, on pain of a declaration of war, appears to have reached St. Petersburg before the courier who was the bearer of that message ; for, although we •did not publish the fact until after his departure from this country, the circumstance that he was 'di rected to go by way of Vienna, and was slightly detained there, caused him to be longer on the road than the ordinary course of the post. It is said, arid not without probability, that the Empe ror Nicholas exclaimed, an learning the nature of the communication addressed to him, that he could answer it in six minutes as well as in six days ; but we shall not be surprised to find that he has availed himself of every pretext to gain time, and we have reason to believe that considerable impe diments were offered to retard the journey of the British courier on his way from Vienna to St. Pc tersburgh. The interval has been used by Russia to increase and improve her preparations for de fence in the Baltic provinces and in Finland, while she has exerted all her diplomatic influence, not without some appearance of success, in Berlin and Vienna. Meanwhile, however, the fleets have been steadily approaching their destination. Sir Charles Napier having first conveyed his powerful squad ron to Wing° - Sound, favoured by a south-west wind, which took the ships to the coast of Sweden in little more than 48 hours, has now arrived at Copenhagen, where he landed at once to pay his respects to the King of Denmark. It is probable that ere this the whole fleet has entered the Baltic, by the Belt or by the Sound, and we have infor mation that four French ships of the line, including the Austerlitz, a screw-steamer of 100 guns, are on their way from Toulon and B res t to join Admiral Napier's flag. - In the Black Sea the Retribution and the Caton have been despatched to reconnoitre the mouths of the Danube, and it is said to re move, if necessary by force, the obstacles which the Russians have raised at Sulina to prevent the exit of merchant vessels from the river. It is difficult to conceive a greater abuse of the rights of war than this attempt on the part of Russia to obstruct entirely, at its mouth, the navigation of one of the greatest 'rivers in Europe, not by blockade, but by endeavouring to imprison be tween the banks of the Danube such neutral ves selsas may chance to be there, Russia herself having previously given an assurance that the neutral trade would not be molested in such vessels as had not touched at Turkish ports. We shall be happy to learn that among the first operations undertaken by the combined fleets are the measures required to re-open the Danube, for nothing more thoroughly characterises the loni-cherished and selfish designs of Russia than the artifices and cal culated neglect by which she has sought to choke up the mouths of that great stream. The correspondence and diplomatic communica tions between the German Powers have gone on with extreme activity for the last few days, and Colonel Manteuffel, a relation of the Prussian Minister, has been passing to and fro at express speed between Berlin an &Vienna, and even Munich. But all this activity on the part of the Prussian agents is in support of a passive and motionless policy—this affected energy is the apology for ex treme weakness of purpose—these efforts are in tended to account for the absence of real and timely exertions. All that is required to complete the absurdity of such a position is a solemn league and covenant between the German Powers, binding themselves to do nothing. The demand by the Prussian Government of a loan of 5,000,0001. f or military purposes has b een referred to a committee of twenty-one members of the Lower Chamber, of whom six or eight belong to the Liberal party ; and it is expected that, if the Government seeks to obtain a unanimous vote in favour of the measure, it must be more explicit than it has hitherto been. If this large sum of money be placed at the disposal of the Minister of War, with no stronger engagement than that it is to be used against the enemies of Germany, what s ecurity has the country that these resources, which have been raised under a pretence of neutrality, will not be employed for purposes even more con trary to the true desires and interests of the nation? Thispolicy is a faithful repetition of the disastrous and dishonest system which Prussia commenced by the Treaty of Basle and ended on the plains of Jena. For ten, years she succeeded, it is true, in preserving her neutraliry during a Eurtpean con test, in which Austria twice braved all the hostility of France, and England only desisted for one short interval from the efforts of war. But in that interval Prussia had successively betrayed each of her allies, and allied herself to each of her enemies. She tendered her congratulations to Napoleon after the battle of Austerlitz, and she availed herself of the favour of France to seize Hanover, which then formed part of the dominions of the King of England. These shortsighted and treacherous actions were expiated on the field. of Jena, and Prussia learned by the defeat of her army and the annihilation of her power that a State which lae withdrawn itself frem the comma .hal 4 sit , eep- It and of )onus ; 'three in) 1 2st int) 2 ek- !ell) 3 ;army- lorello, l Ken- made a mile ,rously L good traight won by third ; )ost at. e neat, t at the of the bonu s ull pa y . 11 le tion if Bro xtra ner) 1 i bury- Lkin) 2 1 1 st rion) 3 .ohnny, Bee.'[- de, at id mone y. teiy for n front, r cross ho had ne from ast won ❑ce be le post, lea ding for 190 3. ea oh, erty of each. auto.)

When he has studied it we shall desire to he informed on what data he founds his assertion of the retrograde character of Turkish policy—the unprogressive spirit of Mohanunedanism—the effete barbarism of Islam institutions'? Why, the very charge of the Emperor of Russia against Turkey is, that it is struggling to emancipate itself from 'the genius of Al Koran ; that " ancient Turkey disap peared from the time when it was sought to esta blish these institutions diametrically opposed; as well to the genius of Islamism a s to the charact e r aud,Usages of the Mussulmans—institutions .more or less borrowed from modern liberalism, and con sequently entirely opposed to the spirit of the Ot toman Government. It is for this crime—for the offence of braving the fanaticism, prejudice, the fierce intolerance of Mahomet, the barbarous abso lutism of the East, by our advice and in deference to our example, and of daring the experiment of ele vating his country by free institutions, equality of subjects before the law, and of introducing the spirit of Christianity.into the domestic polity of the State, that the Sultan (for ever honoured be his name, and 'stablished•brhis 'throne l)` was, according to the deliberate confession of the Czar in this State paper, to be made the victim of " a plan by which Russia and England might dispose beforehand, and between themselves, of the different provinces which co ns ti tute the Ottoman Empire' —by " a formal agreement to be concluded, between them without the knowledge, and ' unassisted by the counsel . and 'intervention of the other Courts." .And it is this Imperial Cagliostro, this Barabbas Wliitefeather, who has been for the last six months protesting, in the face of all Europe, that he had never entertained the most - remote idea of cribbing one inch of the territory of Turkey, or affecting in the slightest degree the throne or authority of the Sultan ! We are infinitely indebted' to the blun dering and wholly unintentional candour of Nicho las, albeit revealed by a gross breach Of confidence, for the most unimpeachable testimony to the pro gressive and reforming spirit of the Government of the Sultan. A more touching, einfobling, edify ing, deeply affecting spectacle never was exhibited on the theatre of history, than that great and good man's revelation to his own heart of the hollowness of his people's theology, the necessity of awakening them from the night-mare dream of a vicious polity founded on a false faith—the clear perception of the superiority of Christian institutions and European ideas—the duty at all hazards, and almost against hope, of redeeming. his country from its moral and mental desolation the resolution : of putting the • thought in - act of upraising . his • empire from the despair of ignorance and despotism, and leading her forward to the line of European progress and civilisation the reconciling of his chief subjects to his enterprise— their united, manly, brave, and patient wrestling with the-honest fanaticism of many, and , the politic hypocrisy of rival chiefs. ft is to this pions and patriotic endeavour that the Ckar himself traces the weakness of the Sultan ; it is of a peril so caused that he proposes to . England that they should make a - in.utual profit ; and Mr. Cobden, in the face of such facts, so confirmed, asks us to allow Nicholas to become the Liberator of Turkey, and to establish the progressive civilisation of Muscovy on the ruins of the worn-out barbarism of Islam ! Long live the Sultan. "He shall not die, by God !" Not all the cotton in Manchester shall Burke or smother his cause. Not a conscript is in our army, not a pressed sailor in our navy. Every man is a volunteer, and every volunteer a hero. After forty years of " piping tunes of peace," the majestic genius of the nation rises more proudly than ever. The blessing of . God is on our arms. We are the vicegerents of-his eternal justice. Never did Eng land draw the sword of might more clearly after having exhausted the patience and forbearance of right. We are sacrificers, not butchers—the pro vidential executors of outraged public law, not the mere prostituted instruments of material force. • ~ Lay the proud usurper low, Tyrants fall in ev'ry foe. Liberty's in ev'ry blow, Struck by land or sea ! peace which it is desirable to obtain indicate the objects which ought, it possible, to be effected by war. It is necessary to redress an inequality of force which has formed a constant temptation to aggression, and it is especially important to show that Russia has something to lose by defeat in a struggle in which the possession of Constan tinople is proposed as the reward of success. Should the war prove of long d ura tion, circum stances may arise in whi c h it will be requisite to inflict a deadly blow on the enemy. The project of territorial re-adjustment which has lately excited public attention in France, might not be found im practicable in some of its principal portions. Fin land and the Crimea, Georgia and Poland, are but loosely connected with the empire to which they nevertheless contribute so much of its strength. The Baltic provinces are inhabited by a Finnish peasantry, intermixed with a German aristrocacy ; and, in an internecine war, all the resources of those vast regions might be turned against their present possessor. It would, probably, be more for his in terest to experience some early defeat, which might be accepted 'as decisive of the fate of the conflict. England and France will not hastily undertake any scheme of conquest which would involve the necessity of carrying difficult enterprises to a suc cessful issue ; but neither, on the other hand, will they fritter away their forces in indecisive operations. The Emperor Nicholas cannot be un aware of the deep aversion with which his policy is regarded by all but the lowest and most ignorant of his subjects ; and the national repugnance to the war will become stronger as the losses and in conveniences to which it must lead are practically felt. It would not be prudent to wait for the loss of a province before offering acceptable terms to Turkey and her allies. • AUSTRIA.—PRIISSIA.—THE WAR. (Pram, the Weekly Dispatch.) And so the " Western Powers" waver. Prussia hedges and Austria boggles. .We do not know where to have them. They presume, forsooth, to hold off—they " really do not know, I'm sure." They would make themselves of importance by emulating the ruse of those wiseacres who hide their stupidity by the assumption of profound dubiety. With them, even while " the front of battle lours," it is an exercise in the rule—" Thinks I to myself thinks I." How now, ye curs, that like not peace nor war ? The one affrights ye—the other makes ye proud. He that should find ye foxes finds ye geese Where lions, hares. le are no surer, no, Than live coals on the ice, or hailstones in the sun ! Do these great pipe-clay and blacking-brush Powers really think that England and France are to be played with by such poor, miserable devils as they are ? Can it be possible they expect that we will suffer them to become political Vicars of Bray,. and that we will consent to be fobbed off with the scruples of their ragged conscience, so that they may turn against us should it suit their conve nience, and should an opportunity of striking. in be afforded by the state of the manoeu vres of the armies on the Danube ? The King of Prussia has long been known as the " muff" of monarchs—the great Royal humbug of Eu rope, the trifle, the syllabub, the . froth of poli ties, that always seems to be plain, palpable, tan gible, until you g rasp it, when , presto, it is nothing—" a king of shreds and patches !"

A neuter in the thick of a Euro pean war is as odious to both parties as a herma phrodite to both sexes. We can't have bomb shells and powder tumbrils lying about in the blaze of battle, and marked "private—to be left till called for." Are they to be thrown among the enemy, or intended to explode among our selves—yea or nay ? We don't believe in neutrali ties. In politics the safe rule is—" He that is not for us is against us."
