The latest advices from the United States are to the effect that flour and grain were in but moderate request, on former terms. The French markets have become less active, and prices have a downward tendency. The demand for wheat in the Baltic and Black Sea ports has been ex tensive. ARRIVAL OF THE AFRICA. LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY. By the steam-ship Africa, which arrived at Liver pool y e st er d a y (S un d a y), we have advices from New York t o th e 24th ult. She has brought 92 passengers, but no specie. • The Royal Mail steamer Arabia arrived at New York on the 23d, after a fine run of 9 days, 22 hours, and 30 minutes mean time from Liverpool. The United States' steamer Pacific, which sailed from Liverpool three days before the Arabia, ar rived at New York . 11 hours • after her, having, on the fifth day out, broken her main shaft. The screw-steamer . Glasgow arrived at New York on the 23d ult. from the Clyde. The deaths in New York for the week ending the 20th ult. were 969, •of which upwards of 400 were caused by the extreme heat: The .fever at New Orleans and several other places in the Southern States was hourly on the increase. - The deaths at New Orleans on the '2lst from it were 270, and for the week 1,350, and from other causes 230. It had also broken out at Balti more and Cumberland ; at Natchez, with a popu lation of only 5,000, the death s h a d been upwards of 300 from the sauce cause.' The Washington correspondent of the New York _Herald, writing on the23d, says : Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English grain were very moderate. The imports from abroad amounted to 25,684 quarters of wheat, 7,350 41 -ley, 21,365 oats, 4,272 beans, 13,055 li nsee d , 3 5 5 rapesee d, 22 mustard seed 1,765 sundry seeds, 210 casks and 8,163 barrels of flour. Fresh up to this morning's market, the arrivals of wheat, coastwise from Grav esen d , K ent, we re moderate, and in fair average condition. Amoncrst the supply were 700 quarters of new. From the Eas e t coast, the receipts were small ; and those by land carriage from the Midland Counties were trifling. The show of samples of both red and white was very moderate ; nevertheless, the demand, owing, in some measure, to the refusal of the French Go vernment to allow any advance in the value of bread in Paris during the first fortnight of the present month, was in a sluggish state, and sales propprogressed at prices about equal to those of Mond a y last. For a forward delivery only a limited business was transacted. We were fairly supplied with foreign •wheat. Good Baltic parcels were steady, and the turn dearer. In all other kinds a moderate business was transacted, at late rates. "The mission to Constantinople was filled to-d 4 by the appointment of the lion. Carroll Spence, of Mary laud, vice Mr. Marsh, removed. Mr. Sanders' commis sion as Consul of London Was forwarded to him to-day by mail. The mission to France is yet unfulfilled, nor is it decided who will get it. All announcements to the contrary are mere gossip." Floating cargoes from the westward sold at full quota tions. The arrival continues small. Very little English barley was on offer, and the supply of foreign was by no means large. The trade ruled active, at an advance of ls. per quarter. Malt sold briskly, and the quotations were is to 2s per quarter above last week's currency. We were fairly supplied with oats; the inquiry for which ruled active, at a rise of is per quarter. There was an improved sale for beans, at ls. per quar ter more money. Peas moved off readily, and must be quoted is per quarter higher. New rye was held at from 34s to 38s per quarter. In dian corn was firm. A contemplated insurrection of the slaves in Nottoway County, Virginia, had been discovered and suppressed. They intended murdering all the white inhabitants of the place. _ _ An extensive lire broke out in the Pearl-street house, New York, on the 23d ult., which destroyed $200,000-;worth of property. The flour trade was steady, and the top prices of Eng lish was 60s per 2801bs. Fine American realised 31s per barrel. Her Majesty's steam - er Devastation had captured the fishing schooner Starlight, but telegraphic ac counts state that she had been released on pay ment of costs and and a promise from the captain that he would not fish within the British bounuary . auain a CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

The California papers recoru the capture and decapitation of the celebrated robber chief Joaquin, together with several of his ' followers. The wheat crops in must parts of Cali fornia were suffering from rust, winch it was said would make the yield 25 per cent. less than it would otherwise have been. The ship Mango which had been burnt to the water's edge in San Francisco bay, lost about 40,000 dols. _Murders were still very rife throughout California. Two persons had heen hung at Calavera—one for mur der and the other fur horse-stealing. Lynch law had also become pretty general. New gold dig gings had been discovered at Port Oxford, on the Umpqua River. Five persons had taken I,ooodols. per day out for several days. Provisions were very dear, pork selling for 45c. per pound. Gold had also been discovered in large quantities at Santa Cruz, near the San Lorenza Creek. The San Francisco market was animated, and, in the face of very heavy importation of every description of merchandise, there had been a reaction in almost every branch of trade.

However, a good clearance was effected. Notwithstanding that the supply of beasts was large, there was an evident improvement in the beef trade, caused by the large number of both town and country buyers in attendance. The primest Scots were, however, very scarce. That breed moved off briskly, at an advance in the quotations of 2d per 81bs, 4s 6d per 81bs having been realise& Prime large oxen were rather dearer; and the value of all other breeds was well supported. From the northern grazing districts we received 1,800 short horns ; from other parts of England, 800 Herefords, runts, Devons, short horns, &o. ; and from Scotland, 140 horned and polled Scots. For the time of year the numbers of sheep were limited, andiwe observed a falling off in their general condition. The mutton trade was very firm, and a good clearance was effected at fully last Monday's advance in prices. The best old Downs sold at 5s 2d per bibs. Port-au-Prince advices of the 2d of August state that the yellow fever still prevailed there. All was quiet in the island. The reception of favourable news from Europe had given a better tone to the New York stock market. Erie Shares rose 11 to l ; Reading Rail road, 2 ; Long Island, l ; and Michigan Railroad, 1. The demand for money was greater than the sup ply. Exchange on London, 1081 to 109- ; Paris, 5 131 to 5 16i ; Amsterdam, 40/ to 41-i • Frank fort, 40i to 40i ; Bremen, 781 to 794 ; :Antwerp, 5 16i to 5 17k. There had been a quiet but regular demand for cotton, with daily sales of about 900 bales. No material change had taken place in bread stuffs. Both wheat and flour were in good de mand, at former prices. Indian corn without change. Scotch pig-iron was selling at 34 dols. to 34 dols. 50c., six months'. Freights to London. —Tobacco, 275. to 30s. per hogshead • flour, 2s. 9d. to 3s. per barrel ; measurement goods, 20s. to 30s. per ton. We were very moderately supplied with lambs, which moved off slowly at a decline of 2d per 81bs. Prices ranged from 4s 6d to 5s 6d per 81bs. Calves, the supply of which was great, met a dull sale, at from 2d to 4d per 81bs less money. The top figure was 4s 8d per Blbs. We had a steady inquiry for pigs, at extreme currencies. TITJ7 EASTERN QUESTION. (From the Morning Post.) . . The telegraph from Vienna will, we trust, in , form us in a few days that the Emperor of Russia has accepted the modifications proposed by the Turkish Government in the Vienna note. These modifications, though by no means indispensable to the true interpretation of the note, are certainly , useful and proper in giving to it additional clear ness, and there can be no doubt but that the Czar can have no good grounds for rejecting them. It is certainly true that Russia consented, with considerable reluctance, to the settlement proposed by the Four Powers, which she declared was "dis advantageous" to herself. It is true that, with the feeling of having submitted to a disadvantageous settlement in the first instance, and then having yielded, as she did, to further modifications, she may, upon a third proposal, pettishly and abruptly reject it. That is possible, but it would not be sa gacious, nor is it probable. If, then, pettishness do not govern the councils of Russia, and reason have her due sway, the Czar can allege no good motive for the rejection of the modifications—th..y make the note more clear—there can be no misol lief in that if he be honest in his dealingsaud intentions. If he do not like the clearness of the note, as it now stands modified, he must state the reason why, and that reason can only be that, if there were a loop hole for subterfuge, he could take advantage of Turkey. He will hardly say this, and, not saying it, what else can he advance ? Our readers will have seen, from the note which we republished on Friday in contrast with the ulti matum of Prince Menschikoff, that, as we have always stated, the wide and unpassable gulph that lies between the two propositions is this—that, whilst the one is equivalent to an engagement, the other is not, and that, whilst Prince Menschikoff's note cannot be signed without a sacrifice of sove reign authority and national independence, the Vienna note amounts to no more than a courteous and free diplomatic communication of certain de terminations arrived at by the Sultan. It is not needful to enter into elaborate argument respecting the five modifications proposed by the Turkish Goirernment. They speak for themselves. They are simple. Their object is elucidation • their effect improvement. Th ere i s b u t one which, by possibility, can give rise to serious objection at St. Petersburg. That one is the fifth. Whereas the Vienna note states that the Sultan will allow the Greek worship to participate "in the advantages conceded to other Christians by con vention or special agreement "—the modification of the Divan allows the participation only " in the advantages accorded, and which may be ac corded to other Christian communities, Ottoman "subjects." Now, the Turkish Government alleges with great reason and truth, that if the wording of the Vienna note were to be preserved, Russia could at once claim all the advantages which were conceded to Austria towards the close of the last century by the treaty of Sistova. The chief privi lege was the right of representation of the griev ances of Catholics through the Austrian Ambassa dor. An equal right of representation would then be claimed by Russia on behalf of the Greeks. Now, in the case of Austria, it mattered little, be cause the number the Catholics is small, but the Greeks amount to some eleven millions. It may be urged, however, that the right of representation On the ono hand does not involve the necessity of concession on the other. But when a great power like Russia is entitled to make authoritative repre sentations to weaker Power, they are likely to prove effectual, and apt to lead to consequences dangerous in the highest degree to the indepen dence or the weaker Power, and its sovereignty over its subjects. It is therefore well that the term " convention or special agreement " has been excluded by the Divan from the note. Nothing could be farther from the wish of the Great Powers than that Rus sia should obtain any such advantage ; and the excision of the words referred to renders it impos sible that by any twisting she should endeavour to avail herself of the concessions of the convention of Sistova. In such an endeavour, and in such subterfuge, she would have been discountenanced by the great Powers, but still complications more or less awkward might have arisen. The matter is plain • and if the intentions of the Czar be straightforward, he will at once adopt the modifi cations proposed. The question has now arrived at so simple a posi tion that it is impossible to doubt a speedy and pacific solution. If, however, the Emperor of Russia attempts to annul the modifications, he will find his mistake if he think that they do not meet with the support of the great Powers. Turkey has advanced no more than she has the most just right to claim. Her rights will be steadily supported. ( From the Morning Herald.) Whatever pains may be taken by the organs of Government, either here or on the Continent, to represent the Turkish question as settled, it is not so. The readers of the Herald will acquit us of having for one moment lent ourselves to this delu sion. We do not profess to be able wholly to pe netrate the secrecy with which almost everything connected with these matters is, we must say, successfully shrouded; but are safe in advising our readers not to pay the slightest attention to the statements which every day are representing—as they have been representing for the last month— • the question as at an end. On the contrary, we believe it to be at this mo ment the subject of the gravest and most serious complications. Whether these will be disentangled without a rupture of the peace of Europe no man living can undertake to say. Never before, in the history of the world, were negotiations involving the dearest interests of nations carried on in such utter concealment from the public eye, and such utter disregard of public opinion. Lord Aberdeen has spent the last fortnight in writing dispatches upon the subject. He had been permitted, at least until the last few days, to " make to himself friends of the mammon of unrighteousness " by writing off uncontrolled the honour and credit of England to that Russian despotism to which body and soul he is given up—at least whatever miser able remnant of the latter he still retains. Yesterday one of the indiscreet Ministerial organs—the Sunday Times—announced a series of Ministerial movements (slightly corroborated in the Court Cire4lar), which we rather suspect other similarly favoured journals were requested not to notice. From this source the public were apprised of the significant fact, that during the last week long and close consultations between the Ministers now in town took place ; that on Thursday a special message was dispatched to Lord John Russell, to summon him to the distracted councils as his colleagues ; and that returning to town upon this summons, he left his Scottish retirement ex actly as he had reached it. Saturday he is said to have passed in consultation with the Premier and Lords Palmerston and Clarendon, and the result of their deliberations and discussions was the dispatch of a messenger to the Queen. - Of what may have passed in this British Divan (we have done, we presume, with Cabinet Councils along with Parliamentary Government) we know just as much as we do of what took place in the Turkish. Nevertheless, it is not very difficult to , guess that there was one absorbing topic in the deliberations of both—and it needs, after all, no very great exercise of sagacity to infer that the deliberations of the other members of the Government were not marked by peculiar smooth ness when they led to the unusual, if not uncon stitutional, step of summoning specially to the Premier one member of the Cabinet, and that one holding no office, but at the same time the one who, with Lord Palmerston, had solemnly pledged himself to the Parliament and the people of Eng land, that the liberties of Europe should not after the prorogation of Parliament be flung at the feet of the Russian Autocrat. We believe, in a word, that the time has come when the issue between the English and Russian sections of the 'Cabinet cannot much longer be postponed. If Lord John Russell and Lord Pal merston redeem the pledges which they have so publicly and unequivocally given, they will not and they cannot be very long the colleagues of Lord Aberdeen. Deeply persuaded as we are that, by our assent to the note suggested by the conference of Vienna, British honour has been tarnished and British faith brought in question, we believe that there is still an opportunity for our retrieving. All the efforts of the conspirators who are plotting the be trayal of Turkey have not been able to conceal the fact that the Porte h as re f use d to accep t th a t no t e . The modifications it has proposed are before the world. Elsewhere we have calmly and deliberately analysed them. We have shown that they involve, in fact, the whole question originally in dispute. That question is just as far from a diplomatic settle ment as when the differences lay between the ulti matum of Prince Menschikoff and the note of Redschid Pacha. These alterations refuse every thing which was denied to the demands of Men schikoff. We may briefly recapitulate the effect which, elsewhere, we have more fully explained. The note, then, of the conference at Vienna has been altered in five particulars by the Porte. Two of these alterations are merely the substitution of one word for another ; in one instance, by applying the word. " communication" instead of " represen tation," to the diplomatic statements of Prince Menschikoff; in another, by adopting the phrase of " making known" to the Emperor, instead of " declaring," the latter being the word which the Russian diplomatist had used to imply engagement.. The effect of these alterations, apparently slight LINES LEASED AT FIXED RENTALS. 30 1 301 301 I Paid. all 100 all 100 all all all all all 100 100 100 18i 9i all Leasing Closing Prices Company.

The imports of foreign potatoes last week wore 333 sacks from Dunkirk, and 47 bags from Antwerp. The supplies of home-grown qualities continue large. A steady business is doing, as follows :—Shaws 75s to 90s, Regents, 100 s to 120 s per ton. BOROUGH HOP. There is a fair average business doing in good Sussex pockets, at our quotations. Otherwise the demand is dull. Mid and East Kent pockets, 128 s to 180 s • Weald of Kent ditto, 115 s to 130 s; and Sussex ditto,: 110 s to 122 s per cwt. WOOL. Notwithstanding the advance in the rates of discount, and that the imports of wool have been on a lib era l scale, the demand is very firm, and prices are well supported. Last week's arrivals were 298 bales from Buenos Ayres, 1,009 from Geelong, 100 from Hamburgh, 259 f rom Moga dore, 4 from Jamaica, 69 from Trieste, 1,196 from Portland Bay, 142 from Civita Vecchia, 900 from Port Elizabeth, 42 from Port Natal, 112 from Taganrog, 24 from Leghorn, and 13 from Madras.

STATE OF THE WOOLLEN TRADE. (From the Leeds Mercury of Saturday.) LEEDS, Sept. 2.—We have no change to report in the state of the woollen cloth market this week. The trade generally continues steady and good. The markets on Saturday and Tuesday were of a fair character. The business done was about an average. The stock of cloth in the market continues very low. Prices are without alteration. Several buyers from London, and other parts of the country, have been in the town during the week, which has given considerable activity to business in the warehouses. There is also rather more doing in the shipping trade at present. Some respectable orders have been received from Australia by the recent mails, so that, on the whole, there is a fair average trade doing in the warehouses for the season. BRADFORD, Thursday.—The market of this day was marked by dulness, which was not unaccounted for, as the wet and boisterous weather, and the strong attrac tions of the St. George's Hall festival, no doubt had a disturbing influence. Wool maintains its price, but is insufficient to enable the stapler to meet the demands of the farmer. As yarns showed a downward tendency, little was done in them, the spinners preferring to work up former orders, and wait the chances of the market. HALIFAX, Aug. 27.—With the exception of low mixtures, for which there is some little inquiry, the demand for worsted goods is almost at a stand in our piece-hall. In yarns there is no change, either as to demand or price ; and the wool market is quiet, at late quotations. LEICESTER.-Our market still continues in the same healthy condition it has been for some time past, and although yarns have advanced full sixpence per lb. from their prices twelvemonths si nce , and workmanship also above 10 per cent., still there appears no likelihood of lso have i a falling off i n d e m a nd. Th e wr ought hose branchi likely solicited an advance of 3d. per dozen, and are yto obtain it, the hose being in request, and markettheclear of heavy stocks on hand. There is no alteration in yarns. Wools are ready sale at a trifling advance. Farmers' lots are more sought after, and obtain from 375. to 395, per tod, according to quality. HUDDERSFIELD, Tuesday.— We have the same ac tivity in our market to-day, everything new and sea sonable having been broughtupfreely' Stocks are still very low, and there does no t seem any probability of an increase in the meantime. Prices much the same. ROCHDALE, Monday.---Th e re was a tolerably good de mand for pieces to-day, but fewi.offer offered for sale, on ac count of the past week theah few days. For kerseys highereps; when the mills stop a ices have been asked and obtained, as well as for flannels of a coarser quality. Wool is firm, with an upward tendency. TESTIMONIAL TO MR. EVANS, LATE M.P.—A meeting has just been held, under the presidency of th e Arch deacon of Derby, for the purp ose of inviting to a din ner, and presenting with a testimonial, Mr. W. Evans, who has recently retired from the representation of North Derby. A day has been named for the dinner and presentation. FREEMASONRY.--The brethren of the Tees Lodge, Stockton, have given a handsome testimonial to a bro ther of the lodge, consisting of a case of Masonic jewels, a Royal arch, and a Pass-Master's jewel, the latter beautifully mounted with Harrowgate dia monds, and containing' on the obverse the - following inscription, "Presented to Leonard Jackson, Esq., P.M., by the bretheren - of the Tees Lodge, in token of their fraternal regard, September let, 1853. 124 St. St. 25 MINES. 1 all lAgua Fria - lip 2 1 all Anglo Austrin.

Mr. Commissioner Fonbla.aque was the commission e r of the day, but the cases were appointed for the after noon. EXTENSIVE MERCANTILE FAILURE. - . Mr. Oppenheim, of Broad•street, merchant, has de clared himself bankrupt, and the requisite proceedings have been taken. He states his debts at about 20,0001., and assets in England 5,0001. or 6,0001., but he antici pates that if all the property be realised at fair value, he will pay 205., and have a surplus. THE LAST MAIL TO AUSTRALIA.—The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's ship Indus, Captain John Soy, sailed this morning for Gibraltar, Malta, and Alexandria, taking out the East India, China, and Mediterranean mails, also the regular bi monthly mail for the Australian colonies, to be con veyed via Singapore, by one of the company's steam ships to King George's Sound, Adelaide, Port Philip, and Sydney. This mail is a very heavy one, comprising no less than 380 boxes, of which 260 are for Australia, the whole occupying a bulk equal to 45 tons measurement, or 1,800 cubic feet. The overland route being now the most certain and speedy method of communicating with Australia, the principal corre spondence is despatched by this means. We not long since remarked upon the fact that, last year, the Peninsular and Oriental Company earned, in postage, nearly the amount of their annual subsidy for con veying the mails. Present appearances seem to indicate that the system is now almost a self-supporting one, and that if the mails continue to augment in num ber and in bulk the Post-office will speedily be re ceiving as postal revenue a sum far in advance of the annual payment to this company.

A. er effect on this subject than a confirmation of the ancient one of 1774 ; and, finally, words are rejected which would place themembers of the Greek Church in the Ottoman empire in any other position than of Ottoman subjects indebted for their religious liberties to the tolerance of their own Sovereign. The note, as altered, is in effect a denial of all the pretensions, the assertion of which, by Russia, originally created the quarrel. We will not say that Russia will not accept this modified note, be cause it is very possible that Russia, by this time, has found that the conquest of Turkey is not a matter of course. It has been more than hinted that the " Autocrat of all the Russias" would be very glad to find himself with any honourable pre text on the north bank of the Pruth. It may be then that Russia will accept the al tered note. If she does, she will do so at the cost of receding from her insolent pretensions. It is not easy, perhaps, to calculate on the movements of the Czar ; bnt we confess we shall be surprised to find that, upon the signing of the altered note, he will consent to withdraw his troops from the Principalities. But - we suspect that the acceding to these altera tions—a matter not so light in itself as has been alleged—is not the only subject that is still to be adjusted. We have still the strongest reason to believe that the Porte will not consent even to the altered note, unless upon an express stipulation of the evacuation of the Principalities, and a guaran tee against their further invasion as an act of peaceful interference. On Tuesday last, we stated our reasons—so far as we could do so—for believ ing that the announcement made in a moment of indiscreet candour by the Times, the day before, was correct. We can only now say, that nothing has occurred to alter the belief which we then en tertained. . _ _ We believe, in fact, the position of the question to be this :—The Porte has agreed to the proposed note, with the important, indeed the vital altera tions on which we have commented, and with a further stipulation that the note is not to be signed until the Principalities are actually evacuated, or a pledge given that they shall be instantly so, and, further, with a pledge from the four powers that a new treaty shall be entered into to secure and protect in future the integrity of the Turkish em pire against invasion. We further believe that the four powers are now, not by formal application, but by indirect negocia tions, end eavour i ng to ascertain the disposition of Russia upon these points. To prevent any wound to the Emperor's pride they make light of the alter ations suggested, while they carefully conceal the extent and the independence of the Ottoman's de mands. If Ru ss i a re t rea t s, th ey w i s h t o cover its disgrace, nor are we disposed to quarrel with the means which t eac h es a l ways to build the b r id ge for the flying enemy. If Russia does retreat—then all is well. But if not—then comes the question between British honour and the interest of continental a al h lia f n t ee!, which has brought Lord .14 3 13 which is to prevail. It is the near his question approach of on a hurried summons to Lord Palmerston's side. If that question does aris e — an d ar i se i t will, unless. Russia yield—we do not b e li eve th at either of these noble lords will be parties to a desertion of the ally we have led on, and a truckling to the power we have resisted—a policy which would be a surrender of the true interests of the Sovereign they serve, and a betrayal of the people who have confided in them. Enough for to-day—more than enough, we sus pect—to show that the Turkish question is not yet definitively settled. • (From the Press.) The Vienna note is now before the public, and there is no longer any doubt of its phraseology or purport. - This note, upon which its authors so confidingly relied for the settlement of all differences between Russia and the Porte, in its form, at least, involved these absurdities. It gave Russia credit for an active solicitude for the maintenance of the immunities and privileges of the Greek Church in the Ottoman Empire ' and., pro Canto, it recognised the right o f R uss i a to in terpose between the Porte and its subjects It further required the Sultan to declare that he regarded it " as a point of honour to allow the Greek worship to participate, in a spirit of high justice, in the advantages conceded to other Chris tians by convention or special agreement." The advantages, that is to say, that were conceded as a matter of course to foreign merchants and fo reign tourists, to foreign ambassadors and their foreign suites, were thus extended by the terms of the note to two-thirds of the natural-born subjects of the Sultan. The solicitude of the Czar being recognised in a preliminary sense as devoted right fully to this proportion of the Ottomans, the ex tent to which this solicitude which might be in dulged hereafter was thus generously but gravely discriminated. On such terms Ministers could ongratulate the house that the differences be tween Russia and Turkey were arranged, and that the evacuation of the provinces might be fully relied on (no improbable interference we are bound to say), as a result of this considerate intervention. This note was exhibited intermediately to Russia, and her assent to it procured. With this cheering information the Ministry were happy t o dismiss the House of Commons, and to congratu late themselves on the rise of public securities. But the common sense of the Divan m a d e utter havoc of this fool's paradise before it could present us with a single partridge. With the addition of two or three verbal modifications of minor consequence, the Porte has insisted on the expurgation of every word which is susceptible of a construction favourable to the claim of Russia to intermeddle between itself and its subjects. Its just requirements on this head are contained in the first and fifth modifications proposed by the Divan, and communicated to the Four Powers as the conditions of its acquiescence. So far we may perfectly rely on our intelligence, but beyond this stage we are lost in contradictions and the shifts of an incompetence apparently self-conscious,but dog gedly endeavouring to hide its perplexities. At one moment we are told that the modifica tions of the Porte - are of no substantial importance. At the same instant their possible rejection by Rus sia, unimportant as they are said to be, is so far contemplated that the Porte is threatened with a perilous responsibility. A day or two later their importance is admitted, and then the imputations against Turkey are softened. To the extent to which the Ministerial censure is thus mitigated it is not perceived that the praises of their recent performance must abate. "So much that was sub stantially important to Turkey was left unprovided for"—so the contradictions of the present reflect their light on the incapacity displayed in the past. If we look for intimations as to the course which England is to pursue in the contingency which has ar i sen , here again we meet with evidences of an indecision which is incredible. Peace, of course, is to be maintained at any price. But, at one mo ment, it is pursued by directly commending the unqualified submission of the Porte to Russia - at another, by the` adoption of th e modifications Pro posed, and their urgent commendation by the four Great Powers. While the leading organ of the Ministry announces that the latter have given in to their Ministers at St. Petersburg to afford the strongest support to these modifications in their communications with the Russian Go vernment, the organ of a section of the Ministry simultaneously comments on their averred with drawal ; and public criticism on our infirm atti tude is thus precluded in the conflict of authorities, and representations, and proposals. One thing alone is clear—that amid this confu sion the question of peace or war is more than ever at the mercy of accidents. It is admitted that the popular feeling in Turkey would not have permitted the advisers of the Sultan to for one condition less stringently precise i.and stipulate there is a growing indignation even who appear to espouse her interests to prop iti a te preju dice aga inst tnose her foes, and interpose their protection to her her defence. The recent additions _ c hi e fthe ardour fleet, the ambition of her military people, may of her soldiery, or the passions of her the diplomatic either of them prompt escape from Should this be the uences are immeasurable. tangle by a sudden outburst or.which the co - issue of Lord Aberdeen's gestation, here, for if in stance, is one of the contingencies impending, we may credit the Angsintry Gazette " When the Times asserts that Austria has taken the lead against Russia, it either deceives itself or attempts from to deceive its readers. tAutstifriath is so far r ad 0 0 0 m m b e e t i o ngin opposition to Russia, that the im e p n ar a ti l al ap co p u e n al se to ls h worst ad not if prov erh was, and that place ehdosnuetiwenetnirno well-meant, prevent nd en a ta ger • arms, no doubt would have arisen as l to where her place would certainy not have been a t the side of England." Granting that the opportunity may not arise, it will be a small consolation to think how fortui tously it was averted, or that a forced Coalition was approaching its term, while a palsied hand was • fumbling with the reins of empire. Mr. Shaw, who was w e ll k nown i n t h e agr i cu lt ur al districts as editor of the Mark-lane Express, and manag ing director of the Farmers' Insurance Society, died re cently in Australia. He emigrated somewhat suddenly, and after passing through extreme adversity. in 15.„ 61 * bourne, he went to the diggings, where he became 1 1 4 and died in great poverty. )f 100 ' or • the ist the ket of p • s te. wards Linel it on o f ; )0e o f Po ke , S lef t „ e ll- Lt the port° 0 les Or be at e : )1 0- ; 10° va Ist' Va 25 25 18 20 St. St. St. St. St. St. 16 St. St. 10 25 10 1.0.6 100 82 181 100 100 11f 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 1 , 0 100 'lOO 3 4 9 74 all G 5 i G 9 i 1261 100 A 10 i 24 5 381 i
