It+ SD. r PRICE Russian nation of the 26th of June by a further com munication to its agents at foreign courts, intended to explain the position it has now assumed. The former dispatch announced that it was the intention of the Emperor to proceed to coercive measures if the ultima tum which he had then addressed to the Porte was not accepted ; and this document was evidently calculated to prepare Europe for that contingency. The present circular declares that the event then anticipated had taken place ; that the occupation of the Principalities is decided upon ; that the maritime Powers had responded to the former declaration by, what Russia is pleased to term, "a threatening demonstration ;" and that, under these circumstances, it is more than ever impossible for the Russian Government to modify the resolution taken by the Emperor. So far the language of this dispatch is sufficiently peremptory, and even warlike ; but in the course of these transactions we have more than once had o3casion to remark that Russian diplomacy has two very distinct faces—the one stern, enthusiastic, and invin cible, for the gratification of its own loyal subjects ; the other flexible, plausible, and pacific, for the consolation of the world. The immediate object of M. de Nesselrode's last cir cular is, therefore, to disarm the suspicions and the re sistance which the late measures of Russia have excited all over Europe, He disclaims any idea of conquest, and protests that the occupation of the Principalities is a merely temporary measure, which will cease the moment the demands of the Emperor are satisfied, and that the maritime powers have withdrawn the pressure they now exercise upon Russia. Meanwhile the pre sence of the Russian army in Moldavia and Wallachia is not to be a burden on the inhabitants of those provinces. The expenses of the army are to be paid out of the mili tary chest, and Prince Gortschakoff has published a pro clamation to the same effect at Jassy and Buchareat. All this, as far as it goes, is satisfactory enough, but it is but a small and partial view of the real state of affairs ; and even in these adroit phrases there is one passage which we cannot pass over without notice. The Russian Government, having just committed an act for which it does not allege any justification beyond the satisfaction of its own demands, attempts in this paper to represent the advance of the fleets of France and England to the Dardanelles as an addi tional cause of complaint against the Porte and the great Western Powers. It speaks of " the position taken up by the two Powers in the ports and waters of the Ottoman empire, within sight of the capital, as a species ofmaritime occupation, which gives Russia a reason to restore the balance between their relative situations by taking up a military position." A more shallow and unscrupulous misrepresentation we never met with in a State paper. In the first place, the fleets only ad vanced to their present position after it had been positively ascertained by the declarations of Russia her self that she contemplated the occupation of the Princi palities, and the fleets were sent, not to disturb the balance of power, but to restore what Russia had al ready disturbed. Can any fallacy be more gross than the attempt to confound the military occupation of two provinces against the will of their lawful Sovereign, and as a measure of coercion applied to that Sovereign, with the presence of a fleet off the coast of that empire, at the express desire and request of the Sovereign and for his protection, without the occupation of any point of his territory and without even a deviation from the strict rule which, in time of peace, shuts the Dardanelles against foreign flags of war ? The use of such argu ments is really the best proof of the weakness of the cause they are employed to support. The presence of an allied fleet in the ports of a friendly power is in no one respect analogous to the occupation of territory; and in this case the state of affairs is diametrically opposite, for the Porte has, in the exercise of its undoubted right, solicited France and England to approach the Darda nelles—though not " within sight of the capital"—for the express purpose of warding off an attack on its inde pendence, but, at the same time, the limitations imposed by treaties have been respected by France and England, though violated by Russia. It is scarcely necessary to revert to the argument for merly used by M. de Nesselrode, that Russia already pos sesses, by virtue of her ancient and existing treaties, all she asks for or requires ; for the answer to that assertion is conclusive—if she has all she asks by former treaties, of what advantage is it to her to ask or obtain a fresh convention to the same effect ? The old treaties are as binding as the new one could be. The old treaties have not been violated, for, if they had, Russia would not be driven to these puerile inventions to frame a cause of war. We are perfectly aware that she has not demanded a political protectorate of the Greek Christians in Tur key ; she contents herself with what M. de Nesselrode himself terms " a sort of religious patronage." But nobody knows better than the Russian Cabinet what the political effects of this religious patronage are. It is by the distinctions of creed and of ecclesiastical insti -1 tutions that the Ch r i s ti an su bj ects o f T urkey form a social body ; the Patriarchs are their chiefs, and who ever is the acknowledged head of their church is head of the nation. These pretensions, however, are now re duced to their very lowest expression ; Count Nessel , rode says that all he requires is the confirmation of them. If that be so, the solution of this difficulty will be easy , I and will be pacific. No Power will object to sign a re cognition and confirmation of rights and privileges granted under existing treaties, which have never been disputed. The Porte has already published such a recognition in the Trade of the 7th of June, and the Porte would cer tainly not hesitate to renew in identical terms the en gagements of Kainardji and Adrianople. But this line of argument implies that the Russian Government does not rely on the validity of its own treaties ; it speaks of the rights alleged to be conferred by them as if they needed further confirmation ; and it even tells the world that this religious patronage, based, as it says, on the immemorial usages of the Eastern Church, and on great treaties dictated in the hour of victory, is lost or impaired if the Porte refuses to corroborate its existence by the note propounded by Prince Menschikoff on the 18th of May. We can only retort on the authors of this bungling argument their own dilemma :—if they have this religious patronage over the East they do not want this note ; and if they have it not this note will not give it them. The concluding passages of Count Nesselrode's note are an eloquent and impassioned declaration of the ardent de sire of the Emperor Nicholas to preserve the Turkish em pire. The sincerity and the wisdom of the Russian Govern ment would have stood higher if it had omitted these assur ances ; for, if they were true, the whole conduct of the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh would be at variance with what it represents to be its own interest and its invaria ble objects ; and, as its policy has, on almost every oc casion, for upwards of a century, tended to precisely the opposite result, we must conclude that the course it has adopted is not that of repairing the ills of Turkey, or of abandoning the remedy of those ills to what Count Nesselrode calls "the blind accidents of chance." On the other hand, we are distinctly told in this document that if Turkey perseveres in refusing what the Russian Government still urges as its fixed demand, the Emperor will think himself compelled to extend his measures be yond the limited circle to which he means at present to confine them. (From the Morning Post.) The circular which Count Nesselrode has addressed to the diplomatic agents of Russia, and which will be found at length in another column, fairly surpasses, in its haughty contempt of right and justice, even the extra ordinary documents which have previously been issued by the Russian Government. Russia refuses to recognise the public law of Europe, and boldly lays down new principles, with a code as novel as it is contrary to every received notion of inter national obligations. She started by asserting the right of a nation to re quire from another, completely independent, nation the cession of one-half of its sovereignty. In virtue of this hitherto unheard-of principle, Russia demanded of Turkey the protectorate and civil jurisdiction over eleven millions of Christians, subjects of the Po r t e . Upon her demands being demurred to, she next affirms that a nation, whose request, being such as we have de scribed, is met with non-acceptance, has the right to enter the territories of the State refusing her demands, in order to enforce them by holding certain large and valuable provinces until they are complied with. In pursuance of this principle, she invades and occupies Moldavia and Wallachia. Her respect for reason being as small as her regard for right, Russia further roundly maintains that a nation invading by force of arms the dominions of a neighbour ing Sovereign, in order to extort from him concessions which he deems utterly incompatible with his own inde pendence and the integrity of his State, does not make war upon that Sovereign, and, accordingly, defying Vatel's, and all received definitions of war, she proclaims that her military seizure of the Danubian Provinces is an act of peace and good fellowship. These new principles, so strangely enunciated, are surprising enough ; but the grandest discovery of all was reserved for Count Nesselrode's last circular. He thus delivers himself : " The position which the two powers have taken in the ports and waters of the Ottoman Empire, and in sight of its capital, cannot be regarded by us, under present cir cumstances, otherwise than as a maritime occupation, and gives us, further, a reason for re-establishing the balance of our reciprocal relations by taking up a military position." Passing over the trifling fact that Besika Bay is at a distance of 150 miles from Constantinople, and that, therefore, Count Nesselrode's eyes or glasses must be of the best if he can see the fleets from the capital, we come to his amazing statement, that the presence of the fleets of England and France at Besika is a " maritime occupation" of Constantinople, and affords reason to Russia for the military occupation of other portions of the Turk's territories. Surely ships of all nations are free to come and go as much as they please in the Archipelago, and though the presence of two powerful fleets at Besika is certainly a demonstration, it amounts to no more than did the pre sence of a Russian corps d'armee on the Russian bank of the Pruth, or the assembling of a Russian fleet at Sebastopol, both which acts cannot be said to be occu pation, military or maritime, of a neighbouring State, without a wonderful stretch of assertion and an actual violation of truth. However this may be, Count Nesselrode avows, in the plainest manner, the fact, the object, and the pro bable duration of the presence of Russian arms in ~ L Turkey. He says that Russia will occupy the Danu bian Principalities until* time-- " When Turkey shall/boie given to us tjie satisfaction which is our due, andbNen ' at the s ame ti me, the presser.) which the attitud e o f the two maritime Powers exercise upon us shall cease, then our troops shall instantly return within the Russian frontier." 80 here we have the terms of the Czar dictated to lis. He will not quit the Turkish dominions, till not only Turkey shall yield ever ythi ng h e asks, but till Dundas and Hamelin, striking the flags of England and France, quit the free waters of the ./Egean, owning no right to plough them save by permission of the Autocrat. These, then, are the two latest laws laid down by Russia—that the presence of two fleets in an open sea is an occupation of the Turkish dominions, and that Russia has a right to despoil our ally if our ships dare to navigate free waters, belonging to none, but in which it is the high and arbitrary pleasure of Russia that the flags of the two great maritime Powers shall not appear. We have seen falsehood in Russia's assertions ; we have seen fanaticism in her appeals to the Almighty ; we now find menace to our honour, and insult to our flag. England would fain have peace, but she is ready for war ; and peace or war, whichever betide, her resolu tion is, that the faith of treaties shall be respected, that the honour and safety of Turkey shall be insured, and that international law shall be observed inviolate. MERCHANT SHIPPING AMENDMENT ACT. (Front the Morning Herald.) We believe the Merchant Shipping Amendment Act will to-night come under the consideration of the House of Commons in committee, and, as we have ever taken the greatest possible interest in the mercantile marine of this country, we may be pardoned for dwelling a mo ment on the provisions of a bill to many of the prin ciples of which we are favourably inclined. On for mer occasions we have endeavoured to render a scant justice to the excellent corporation of Trinity House, a society which has long had the management of the most important interests of the seamen and shipping of England. The efforts of this corporation, whether in apprenticing such boys of Christ's Hospital as evince a predilection for the sea—in licensing pilots into and out of the Thames—in settling the rates of pilotage —in punishing seamen deserting —and also in, making various bye-laws and r egu l a ti ons, to whicrit is not necessary more particularly to advert here—have been productive of the very best effect, both in our trade and navigation. As a general principle, therefore, we should ourselves wish the proceedings of the Trinity House, in reference to purely nautical matters, to be interfered with as little as possible. It should, however, also be considered that the Trinity House receives, under various acts of Parliament, certain ballastage rates—certain fees and payments under the Mercantile Marine Act —and other payments of which an account is kept at the Bank of England, we doubt not under the most effective super vision and control. But with a view to the application of these monies to the several services in respect to which they are paid—and to the reduction of the charges whenever circumstances permit—it is henceforth pro posed that all tolls, ballastage rates, fees, and payments, received by the Trinity House or the Board of Trade, shall be carried to one aggregate fund, to be called " The Mercantile Marine Fund ;" and such aggregate fund is to be applicabl e to the purposes of the services in re spect of which the tolls, rates, and payments are to be levied. An account of the fund is to be kept by the Paymaster-General, and the application of it is to be under the direction of the Board of Trade for the purposes of the act. In this provision of the new bill the Commissioners of the Northern Light houses—who are really the commissioners in whom the management of the Scotch lighthouses is vested by the act of the 26th year of the reign of George 111. —and the Ballast Board of Dublin are both com prised. Living in London, we are of course not in a position to know a great deal about the manage. ment of the Scotch or Irish lighthouses ; but if the corporation of Deptford Strond, or, as it is more ordinarily called, Trinity House, is rendered amenable to these regulations, there can be no reason on earth why they should not apply to Ireland and to Scotland. There is no country in the world produces a better race of sailors and sea captains than Scotland, but even the hardy and thrifty sons of the Tweed cannot complain of a regulation in an act of parliament which applies to Kent and to Sussex, to Hampshire and to Lancashire alike. As to our Irish brethren they have ever been more famous and world renowned as soldiers than as sailors, but without unduly depreciating our facetious friend Pat, in a matter in which he has never been supposed to have any special aptitudes, we must say that he cannot complain that his ballast board, or corporation, or whate ver it may b e called, is pla ce d on a similar footing with Trinity House and the Northern Light Commissioners. It seems to be a thoughtful and careful provision of the new act, at a time when the administrative ma chinery of these different boards and corporations is to be interfered with, that for the purpose of the erection and repairs of lighthouses, and of oth er extraordinary expenses conn ec t e d w i t h the services, the Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury are authorised, from time to time, to advance, out of the Consolidated Fund, such sums of money as they may think fit, and to pay the same to the credit of Mercantile Marine Fund ; provided the whole sum due in respect of such advances shall never exceed 200,000/. It is also properly and consid erately provided that the Board of Trade may raise money by mortgaging the Mercantile Fund, of course with a view to carry out the purposes of the act, though this intention is not expressed in words. Another provision is that the Queen in Council may fix the toll to be taken for new lighthouses. But with out in the least questioning the wisdom of her Majesty or of her Majesty's Privy Councillors, whom Lord Coke tells us, in his Fourth Institute, are all grave and dis creet men—we think it may be well doubted whether this high court is exactly the very fittest tribunal for fixing tolls. For this purpose commend us to the Elder, or even the Younger Brethren of Trinity House, to the Commissioners of the Northern Lighthouses, or even to the members of the Dublin Ballast Board, or the reformed unreformed Dublin corporation. Upon complaint that any lighthouse is improperly managed, or unnecessary, or in efficient, her Majesty may appoint proper qualified per sons to inspect, and the persons in charge shall furnish such information and explanations as may be required. The Trinity House may, with the sanction of the Board of Trade, under the new system, direct the Commission ers of the Northern Lighthouses, and the port of Dublin corporation, to erect any new lighthouse, or to remove or alter any lighthouse, or make such alterations as the Trinity House shall think fit. It is also provided that the property belonging to the Merchant Seamen's Fund shall be paid into the Exchequer, and the expenses of the fund provided for by an annual vote. In these days of cosmopolitan assimilation and frater nisation, it seems to have struck those who have re pealed the Navigation Act, and made an alteration in the number of the seamen, born English or native, ne cessary to man a British vessel, that it might peradven ture happen that the British flag and national character could be unduly assumed. To prevent this, the follow ing clause is introduced into the bill : " And whereas it is expedient to prevent the undue assumption of the British flag and national character : Be it enacted, that if any person or persons use the British flag and assume the British national character on board any ship, owned in whole or in part by any persons not being entitled b y l aw t o own British ships and navigate them under British colours and papers, for the purpose of making such ship appear to be a British ship, it shall be lawful for any British cruiser, duly authorised by the Lord High Admiral, or by the commissioners for execut ing his office, to seize and detain such ship on the high seas or in any British port, and to bring her for adjudica tion before the High Court of Admiralty or any Vice- Admiralty Court in her Majesty's dominions." This is an exceedingly proper provision ; and if it is made to appear to the court by competent evidence that the ship has been navigated under the British flag and British papers, though owned by persons not entitled to own British ships, the court may pronounce the ship to be confiscated to her Majesty. Other provisions of the act there are for facilitating voluntary arrangements for salvage services rendered by her Majesty's ships abroad, which are clearly meant for the relief of the mercantile marine. How these provisions may work in practice it is very difficult at this stage to say ; but we confess from a casual and perfunctory perusal of the bill, the provi sions appear to us somewhat circuitous and operose. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE FROM CHARING-CROSS BRIDGE. —Last night Mr. Higgs, the coroner for the Duchy of Lancaster, held a brief inquiry at the Spotted Dog, in the Strand, on the body of Theresa Swifthorne, aged 21, who committed suicide under the following circum stances :—The evidence proved that the friends of the unfortunate woman were highly respectable, but that for some time past, in spite of their entreaties, she had led a most abandoned life, frequenting the company of private soldiers and drummer-boys. On Thursday night last she was in the company of a drummer named Thomas Watkins, of the Coldstream Guards, at the White Lion public-house near Charing-cr oss . Sh e th ere complained of being without money, when the drummer gave her a shilling, which she expended in gin. After that she asked the drummer to see her home across the water. They proceeded together on to Charing-cross Bridge, when the deceased took off her shawl and gave it to her companion, saying that she was only going to the rails for some purpose. lie, therefore, went on, and finding that she remained longer than he expected, he looked round, and found her standing on the but tresses of the bridge, and holding on to one of the iron rods. He ran forward to save her, but she instantly fell into the water and disappeared. The drummer, in answer to the Coroner, said that his belief was that she had mounted the bridge merely to frighten him, bet the thunderstorm set in, and a flash of lightning cause d her d n i ce ms d , ro p w ro n s as tre i e n t c , on s s e e v q e u ti e . of 3, been in a very melancholy state proved to let go her hold, and s E h a e rl w t E h l a i z t a t b h e e t h d e Fos, eeas for some time, and on the afternoon of Thursday last she took off her veil, placed it on her head, and inquired if she (deceased) was dead whether she would wear it. This and other evidence being conclusive, the jury re turned a verdict that deceased destroyed her own life whilst in a state of temporary insanity, produced by intoxicating drinks.

The following dispatch, addressed by Count Nessel rode to the diplomatic agents of the Russian Govern ment, appeared in the Journal de St. Petersbourg of the 2d July (TRANSLATION.) "ST. PETERSBURGH (JUNE 20), JULY 2, 1853. Sir,—My circula r di spa t c h of the 30th of May last has informed you of the rupture of our diplomatic relations with the Ottoman Porte. It charged you to inform the Cabinet to which you are accredited of the causes of com plaint which we have received from the Porte--of our un successful efforts to obtain satisfaction, and of the succes sive concessions which we have been led to make by our desire to maintain with the Turkish Government kindly and amicable relations. You know that having renounced in him the idea of a guarantee obtained under the form of a convention, sened, or other united (syuallagma tique) act we have reduced our demands to the sim ple signing of a simple note such as that of which the text has been transmitted to you. You may have seen that this note, independently of the arrangements which specially relate to the Holy places, includes substantially nothing else as regards the general guarantee demanded in favour of religion than a simple confirmation of that which we have long enjoyed. I have called your attention to the fact that the signature of this article constitutes, in the eyes of the Emperor, the only real reparation which he can accept for the offence committed against him by the violation of the firman of the year 1852, as also of the personal promises which he at the same time received from the Sultan. I have added that a similar act was besides indispensable, since the obtaining of new firmans, susceptible of being infringed as well as the first, could no longer of itself alone offer us a sufficient pledge for the future. Finally, 1 have not concealed from you, that if, aft er e i g h t days of reflection, the Ottoman Porte refused to grant our demand, the Emperor would feel himself under the obligation of having recourse—in order to obtain satisfaction—to measures more decisive than a simple interruption of the relations of the two Governments. " In submitting this ultimatum to the Porte we had more particularly informed the leading cabinets of our in tentions. We had appealed to France and to Great Bri tain not to complicate by their attitude the difficulties of the situation, and not to a d op t t oo soon measures which, on the one hand, might have the effect of encouraging the opposition of the Porte ; and, on the other, of com promising still more than they already have been com promised in the question, the honour and dignity of the Emperor. " I regret to announce to you to-day that this double attempt has unhappily been vain. " The Porte, as you will see by the accompanying letter of Reschid Pacha, has given to that which I had addressed to him a negative, or at least an evasive answer. "On the other hand the two maritime powers have not thought it their duty to defer to the considerations which we had recommended to their serious attention. Taking the initiative before us, they have thought it indispensable to adopt immediately an effective measure in advance of those which we had only announced to them as purely con tingent (eventuelles), since we rendered their execution de pendent on the final resolutions of the Porte ; and oven at the moment at which I write that execution has not as yet commenced. They immediately sent their fleets to the neighbourhood of Constantinople. They already occupied the waters and the harbours of the Ottoman empire, within reach of the Dardanelles. By this advanced posi tion the two powers have placed us under the weight of a threatening demonstration, which, as we had forewarned them, must have added new complications to the crisis. " In the face of the refusal of the Porte, supported by the demonstration of France and England, it becomes more impossible for us than ever to modify the resolutions announced by the Emperor. " His Imperial Majesty, therefore, has just sent to the body of our troops stationed at this moment in Bessarabia the order to pass the frontier for the purpose of occupying the Principalities. " They entered them not for the purpose of waging against the Porte an offensive war, which we shall, on the contrary, avoid to the utmost of our power as long as it shall not force us to it ; but because the Porte, in persist ing to refuse us the moral guarantee which we had a right to expect, obliges us to substitute for it provisionally a material guarantee, because the position which the two powers have taken up in the harbours and the waters of the Ottoman Empire, in view oven of its capital, not being capable of being considered by us in the actual circum stances otherwise than as a maritime occupation gives us, moreover, a reason for re-establishing the equilibrium of our respective positions by means of a military occupation. " We have, however, no intention of maintaining that position longer than our interest or our honour shall re quire. It will be altogether temporary ; it will only serve as a pledge until better councils shall have prevailed in the minds of the Ministers of the Sultan. In occupying the principalities for a time, we disavow beforehand every idea of conquest. We do not pretend to obtain any accession of territory. Knowingly and willingly we will not seek to excite any rising amidst the Christian population of Turkey. As soon as that power shall have granted us the satisfaction which is due to us, and as soon, at the same time as the pressure which the at titude which the maritime powers exercises on us shall cease, our troops will re-enter, at that very instant, within the limits of Russia. As to the inhabitants of the principalities, the presence of our forces will subject them to no new charges or contributions. The articles with which they may furnish us shall ba paid for out of our military chest at the opportune moment, and at a rate fixed upon beforehand with their Government. The prin ciples and the rules of conduct which we have prescribed to ourselves upon this subject you will find laid down in the annexed proclamation, which General Prince Gortcha koff, chief of the army of occupation, has been directed to publish on his entry into the two provinces. "We do not, Sir, at all conceal from ourselves how much meaning there is in the attitude which we assume, and what may ultimately become its consequences, if the Turkish Government obliges us to pass beyond the narrow and limited circle within which we desire to confine our selves. But the position in which that Government places us by driving matters to extremity, by refusing us every legitimate satisfaction, by not reciprocating by any concessions whatever all those concessions which Prince Menschikoff had successively made with respect to the form as well as the original basis of our propositions, leaves us no other course to adopt. More than that—the princi ples so peremptorily laid down in spite of the moderation of the language of the letters written in reply to Redschid Pacha, as well as in his note of the 26th May last, to the representatives of the four powers at Constantinople, would lead to nothing less, if they were to be taken literally, than to bring into question all our required rights, and to nul lify all our preceding transactions. " In effect, if the Ottoman Government regards, as con trary to its independence and to its rights of sovereignty, any diplomatic engagement whatever, even under the form of a simple note, in which the point at issue would be to stipulate with a foreign government for the security of religion and the churches, what becomes of the engage ment which it formerly contracted with us under a form far more obligatory to protect in its states our religion and churches ? " However little we might admit a principle so abso lute, we should in doing so bear up with our own hands the treaty of Kainardji, as well as those which confirm it, and voluntarily abandon the right which they have con ferred upon us to take care that the Greek worship should be effectually protected in Turkey. "Is that what the Porte means ? Does it intend to free itself from all its preceding obligations, and to make the actual crisis result in the abolition for ever of a whole order of relations which time had consecrated ? " Impartial Europe will understand that if the question were placed on those terms, it would become for Russia, in spite of the most conciliatory intentions, incapable of a pacific solution ; because the issue would involve for us our treaties, our secular influence, our moral credit, our dearest sentiments, national and religious. " Let us be permitted to say it—the actual dispute, and all the noisy distinction which it has received from the press outside of cabinets, rest upon a mere misunderstand. . ---- ing, or upon a want of sufficient attention to all our politi. cal antecedents. "People seem not to be aware, or to lose sight of the fact that Russia virtually enjoys, by position and by treaty, an ancient right to watch over the efficacious pro tection of its religion in the East ; and people represent the maintenance of this ancient right, which she could not abandon, as an act which involves a totally new preten sion to a protectorate at once religious and politic, of which the meaning and the consequences for the future are exaggerated. " It is upon this miserable misunderstanding that the whole crisis at this moment depends. " The bearing and the consequences of our pretended new political protectorate have no real existence. We demand for our co-religionists in the East only the strict status quo —only the preservation of the privileges which they pos sessed ab antique under the aegis of thir sovereign. We do not deny that there will result from this in favour of Russia what may be justly called a religious patronage—• which we have from time immemorial exercised in the East. Now, if up to this time the independence and the Sovereignty of Turkey have been reconciled with the ex ercise of this patronage, why should either the one or the other suffer for the future, since our pretensions reduce themselves to that which is in reality only a confirmation? " We have said, and we repeat, the Emperor wishes not to-day what he did not wish in former times, to overturn the Ottoman Empire, or to aggrandise himself at its ex pense. After the very moderate use which ho made in 1829 of the victory of Adrianople, when that victory placed the Porte at his mercy—after having, singly, in Europe, saved Turkey, in 1833, from inevitable dismemberment—after having, in 1839, taken, with other powers, the initia tive in making propositions which, carried out in common, once more saved his throne by giving place to a new Arabian empire—it would be rather fastidious to give proofs of this fact. On the contrary, the fundamental principle of the policy of our august Emperor has always been to maintain as long as possible the actual status quo of the East. He has always desired, and he desires still, 1 because such is really the well-understood interest of Russia—already too vast to require an extension of terri tory—because, prosperous, peaceable, inoffensive, the Otto man empire checks the shock of rivalries, which, if it should fall, would immediately . wound each other in their struggle for the possession of her ruins —because hu man foresight would in vain search for combination pro per to fill the void which would be left in the political balance, by the disappearance of the great body. But if such are the real, avowed, and sincere views of the Emperor, in order that ho may be enabled to be faithful to them, it is necessary also that Turkey should act to wards us in a manner that offers to us the possibility of co-existing with her ; that she respects our private treaties and the consequences resulting from them ; that the acts of bad faith, of secret persecution, of perpetual vexation, practised against our religion, place us in a situation which, intolerable long to endure, will force us to confide for a remedy to the blind chances of hazard. " Such are, Sir, the considerations that you are charged to lay before the government of ----, in bringing under its notice, by the present dispatch, the resolutions and iatentions of his Majesty the Emperor. " Receive, Sir, & c . (Signed) ( Front the Times. ) The Russian Government has followed up its circular dispatch of the 11th of May and its manifesto to the " NESSELRODE." NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. COmmander Schultz, on the retired list of 1830, has been appointed to the retired list under the order in council of 1816. A TEAK STEAM•9LOOP FOR THE NAVY.—The Malacca, steam-sloop, built at Trincomalee, has been launched at that port. The Cleopatra, 26, Captain Massie, is at Trincomalee, her crew being employed in fitting out the Malacca, which ship will be navigated to England by a party of the Cleopatra. Vice• Admiral the Hon. Sir Fleetwood Pellew, C. 8., K.C.H., was at Trincomalee, by last advices, in his flag ship the Winchester, 50, continuing in the command of the station, although he has been promoted since he hoisted his flag. PORTSMOUTH, JULY 11. The Duke of Wellington, 131, Captain H. 13. Martin, C. 8., will leave Spithead on a few days' cruise to-morrow to shake up her hands. She is still 200 short of her complement, nor has a man offered himself the last ten days. A young officer is missing from her Majesty's ship Odin, whose absence causes the liveliest regret to his captain and messmates. He was granted 24 hours' leave on Tuesday last, came ashore to the Star and Garter Hotel, and changed his uniform for private clothes, un der the intention o f p rocee di ng t o L on d on. He has not been heard of s i nce . H e was a smart, regular officer, sober, attentive, and generally respected. Captain Jerningham, R.N., requests us to correct an error which appears in our yesterday sreport, relative to the cone signals tried on Saturday in this ha r b our . We stated the s i gna l s were " Captain Xer n i ng h am ' s system," whereas th e cone sys t e m is the invention and property of Mr. C. A. Redl, of 38, North Audley-street, and are secured to him by patent. The only connection Captain Jerningham has with the signals is to conduct the experiments, assisted by Commander F. A. Egerton, under orders from the Admiralty. The Vesuvius, 6, steam-sloop, Commander Wilson, went out of harbour this morning, and joined the squad ron at Spithead. The Conflict, 8, screw corvette, made another trial to day to test her speed, for which purpose she had shipped her common spare screw, the four corners of which had been cut off about 10 inches in diameter, to ,reduce the spread. It is next intended that her serviceable screws shall be altered to the shape of the bomerang propeller, if the Admiralty will allow it. The lines for the purpose have been taken. The Bulldog, 6, steam-sloop, has been temporarily commissioned this day, by Lieutenant Reynolds, of the Blenheim, as a depot for the steam reserve during the absence of the Blenheim. PLYMOUTH, JULY 11, Her Majesty's steam-sloop Sphinx, 6, Commander Henry S. Hillyar, arrived last evening from the East Indies and the Cape of Good Hope. This ship has been absent from England more than three years, and during that period has gone over a course of 92,000 miles, of which she has towed the Hastings, 72, a distance of more than 7,000 miles. The Sphinx left Plymouth on the 2d of March, 1850, and calling at Madeira, St. Vincent, Sierra Leone, Whydah, Ascension, and Rio Janeiro, arrived at the Cape of Good Hope on the 12th of June. She reached Singa pore on the 3d of August, and during the remainder of that year, the whole of 1851, and 1852, was most ac tively employed in the East Indies and China seas. She left Trincomalee on the 14th of March, 1853, and the Cape of Good Hope on the 16th of May, the day before the Melbourne, screw steam-ship, departed. The Sphinx c ailed at St. Helena on the 28th of May, at Ascension on the 4th of June, and at St. Michael's on the 20th of July._ - In December, 1851, the Sphinx, at Chinghai, made 30 large piratical junks give up their guns. About 18 months since she was at Loo Choo with treaties from Lord Palmerston. Her boats were up the Irawaddah at Burmah 10th of December, 1852, with Captain Loch's expedition, when six hands, seamen and marines, were killed. Lieutenants Glover and Pocock, and Mr. Cook swain, midshipman, wounded, have since recovered. Commander Shadwell, who went out in command of the Sphinx, was promoted to the Winchester, 50, and SeSecond Lieutenant Hillyar, o f that ship, was, 7th of Fbruary, 1853, promoted to the command of the Sphinx. Mr. George J. Carr, the master, and Mr. Foord, purser, are the only officers who have continued on board, all the others having been promoted. Two en gineers, Mr. Scott and Mr. Beby, died at Calcutta, in June, 1852, from dysentery and the effects of the climate. The boilers of the Sphinx have been in her since 1846, and are now worn out, which is the cause of her re turn. Her engines (Penn's oscillating), of 500-horse power, and said to be the largest ever put on board ship, have answered exceedingly well. The consump tion of coal since she left the Cape of Good Hope is only 150 tons, as she us e d h er sails chiefly during the greater part of the.passage. The Sphinx brings invalid seamen from Rangoon and invalid soldiers from the Cape. Among her passengers are Captain Bonhen, of the Penelope ; Lieutenant Townshend, of the Tortoise ; Mr. Hall, lat e pu r se r o f the Volcano ; and Mr. Lilias Smith, master of the Trin comalee. Captain Bewes, 73d ; Captain Warren, 91st ; Mr. Ramsbotham, and 28 n on - commissioned officers and privates and 14 children from different corps at the Cape. Surgeon in charge, Dr. Seccombe. Mr. U. Hind, late master of the Wi nc h ester at Rangoon, died of his wounds on the 24th of March, between Trin comalee and the Cape, and two seamen, Heywood and Colegate, invalids from Trincomalee, died at sea on the 14th of June. A t St. Helena, on the 20th of May, were her Majesty's steam-frigate Penelope, 16, Captain Henry Lyster, and brig Crane, 6, Commander Thomas Miller. At Ascension, on the 4th of June, the Volcano steam vessel, 5, Commander Robt. Coote, and the Waterwitch sloop, 8, Commander Alan H. Gardner. The Ferret sloop, 8, Commander Reginald J. J. G. Macdonald, sailed for Loando on the 3d of June. The Sphinx spoke, on the 15th of June, intlat. 7.46 N., long. 22.7 W., the French frigate Belle Poule, outward bound. 16th June, in lat. 9.36 N., long. 23.42 W., an English barque, with second distinguishing pennant 8.731, outward bound. 17th June, in lat. 11.19 N., long. 25.8 W., the ship Forfarshire, all well, with ma rines, for Trincomalee. 9th July, in lat. 48.33 N., long. 8.49 W., the Bremen barque America, outward bound. 10th July, off Scilly, a screw steam line-of battle ship, steering to the west, under steam only, bear ing the flag of a Rear-Admiral of the Blue, probably the Agamemnon, 91, Capt.
