In the present position of the Eastern dispute it is to the Turkish capital that we must look for the most critical information, and, as the last reports assumed an aspect decidedly warlike, we have been expecting with some anxiety the intelligence of to-day. This, however, has not proved to be of any decisive character. The "declaration of war" is postponed for 15 days, and there is still room to hope that actual hostilities may be avoided by ne gotiation or adjustment. In conjecturing the possible course of events at Constantinople, we have to deal with elements un known to the ordinary operations of political cal culation. The Turkish Government is liable to be swayed at any moment by influences the most con tradictory and intractable. Prudence is thwarted by fanaticism, and fanaticism itself is exposed to bias from the violent spirit of faction. In the Ottoman capital, and among the principal authori ties of the empire, there are two parties, one dis posed to peace and the other to war. Such a di vision of opinion would probably exist in any State under similar circumstances, but in Turkey the case is complicated by a variety of motives, more or less apparent. The peace partyrepresentsopinions in accordance with the policy of Great Britain and France. It does not advocate peace at all price, or even at the cost of injurious concessions, but is desirous to escape the incalculable hazards of open war, and evinces a spirit of general conformity to the advice of its European supporters. This is the party which, under the leadership of Redschid Pasha, is, or by the latest advices was, at the head of affairs. The war party represents ostensibly all that remains of old Turkish fanaticism—an element naturally quickened by the outrageous provocations of Russia, and just now materially strengthened by the influx of Asiatic Turks into the European do minions of the Sultan. This section, however, possesses another and a more particular object in the downfall of the opposite party, and wishes not only to encounter the Russians on the Danube, but to succeed to power in Constantinople. We might be tempted, perhaps, to remark on the du plicity of a policy which would sacrifice the inte rests of the State to the designs of a faction ; but we are compelled to remember that in this respect the Turks might find a warrant in proceedings nearer home. At this very moment our readers May observe the organs of a party, professedly dis posed rather to absolutism than liberalism, cla- Mouring frantically for war on any terms, imputing the least honourable motives to a desire for peace, exerting every effort to obstruct a pacific adjust ment, and shrieking in ecstacies at any improve- Ment in the prospects of bloodshed and confusion. In addition, however, to these natural elements Of faction in the Ottoman capital, there is another supplied by the clandestine manoeuvres of Russia against her European antagonists. As Redschid Pasha and his party are notoriously in amicable communication with the representatives of the Western Powers, and derive, indeed, a material portion of their strength from the support thus obtained, their adversaries have acquired a certain disposition towards the rival of these Powers in the affairs of the East. Under ordinary circumstances there would be nothing strange in such a bias. Whenever a State is brought to such a position that other States contend for influence over its Government, the competing States usually find themselves identified with the domestic factions of the country. If one party in the Divan looked to France or England, the other would not unna turally look to Russia. But, in the present case, as Russia is the common enemy, and as the war party must necessarily base its whole ostensible policy upon opposition to Russia, it may seem incomprehensible how two such elements could combine. We are assured, nevertheless, that negotiations have been secretly attempted for an adjustment on conditions which might satisfy both Russia and that section of the Turks in whose eyes Russia is most hateful. It is said that the Czar, for the sake of excluding France and Eng land from Ottoman affairs, and terminating a situation which is not without embarrassment to himself, may concede for the moment, of his own free will and by private arrangement, terms accep table to Turkey, and that by such a result Redschid Pasha and his western allies may be discredited, and their opponents step into power. Apart from this contingency, the war party reckon with considerable sagacity on the double advantages of their position. They conclude that they may indulge the fanaticism of the population without vitally endangering the safety of the State. That hostilities with a power like Russia must sooner or later be followed by total discomfiture they do not deny, but they imagine that the cam paigning might be !protracted with greater or less success, and that the consummation, or, in other words, the capture of Constantinople and the ab sorption of the Ottoman empire in the Russian, would wn penoliaint erests,bcyl e 0 withoutbrt e hfwoearbmrey,st prevented, tgos hhetanmjt might responsibilities,ai h p t t Europeanaat ll otherwisee powers. ms. and Thesein their o views gratification thpe oscehue check of nw their which violence is thus removed. That such a course would be displeasing to the allies, on whose ultimate support they are relying, they must be well aware ; but, :as they know also that this support will be forth coming, less for the sake of Turkey than of Europe, they may place no great value on the consideration. We still, however, trust that Redschid Pasha and his adherents may be able to maintain themselves against their adversaries, and to carry out a policy which is unquestionably the most promising, not only for Europe, but for Turkey itself. The `most unscrupulous declaimers against peace cannot profess to expect that the Ottoman empire could gain by war, while it is impossible to predict the consequences which might ensue to Europe if the general peace were broken, and if a system which has now been maintained for nearly 40 years were to be violently destroyed. The interests of public law and of European security are so closely con cerned in resistance to measures like those threat ened by Russia, that we must accept the last resort, if we are driven to such extremity ; but, consider ing that the substantial terms of an adjustment are no longer disputed, and that Russia has alleged her readiness to make the concessions desired, if she can be only satisfied on points of form, we do hope the diplomatists intrusted with the negotiation will find an escape from the difficulty, and make some amends for the mistake of the Conference, by establishing a plain and pacific understanding. THE EASTERN QUESTION. (From the Times.) By JOHN FRASER, Hygeist, General Agent (for Scotland) to the lirltish College of Health, New-road, London., All Members of Parliament and Magistrates are earnestly re quested to peruse the important truths contained in this lecture. The lecture will be obtained from all the agents for the sale of Morison's Vegetable Universal Medicines. LAURENT'S CASINO, ARGYLL Rooms, (Lessee, Cuss. C.

This sauce is patronised and recom mended by most lamilies in the kingdom, and for general use it stands unrivalled. It is sold by all respectable Fish Sauce Venders. Be particular in asking for "Cock's Reality; Sauce," which is pre pared oxis by John and Charles Cocks, at their Manufactory, Duke street, Reading. All others are counterfeits. Observe the name, "J. and C. Cocas, Reading," on the seal and label of each bottle : without this none are genuine. {From the Morniveg Post.) The intelligence brought from Constantinople by the Tancrede, which left that capital on the 26th September, and the telegraph of the news brought by the Fury, whose dispatches have not yet arrived, corroborate in a great measure what previous tele graphs had announced. It was on the 25th that the Grand Council of the Empire held their meet ing, and passed resolutions declaring the Vienna note inadmissible, without the modifications, and urging the Sultan to take measures necessary for the defenee of his independence, and to procure the immediate evacuation of the Principalities. There can be no doubt that the Sultan would upon this have immediately taken the most warlike mea sures, but that the ambassadors of the Four Powers interfered to request delay, in order that the result of the meeting at Olmiitz might be known ; and it was hoped by them that at that meeting concessions might be made which would lead to a speedy and final settlement of the question. That hope has failed. f the territory of an unoffending neighbour. - The state of war is thus nothing new. Russia t )egan it, Russia continued it. Sh e mus t put an ei td to , it by withdrawing her troops, and abandoniq her pretensions. It is for her to choose how this is to be effected. If she will do it peaceably, so much the better If not, then the Sultan and his allies are prepay end to try the force of arms. Their patience is exh av Lsted. This, perhaps, may be the very cause of a , sudden and peaceful termination of the whole bu: ; for it is difficult to believe that Russia will: enter upon a deadly struggle with the Ottoman F mpire and the mighty Powers which will give it their firm and immense support. HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE W2?EK. ( From the Registrar-General's Report.) A thousand and one deaths were registered in lC.ic mdon in the week that ended on Saturday. ln the ten. corre sponding weeks of the years 1843-52 the average num ber was 952, which, if raised according to the Mere •ase of population, becomes 1,047. The mortality fram all causes, therefore, differs little from the usual am ouiit at his season. Scarlatina was fatal last week to 67 children, and in some instances it appears to have been aggravated by local causes. Diarrhoea carried off 71 persons, which is nearly the same as in the previous week; all the cases except 20, were among children. Cholera gives decided indications of a disposition to increase ; in three previous weeks the fatal cases were-16, 29, 47 ; last week they rose to 66, of which 29 occurred to males, 37 to females. The majority of the deaths were among persons of middle age ; 26 occurred under 15 years of age, 36 at 15 and under 60 years, 4at 60 years and upwards. In the cor responding week of 1848, soon after the epidemic of that period made its appearance in London, the number of deaths from cholera was 30 ; in the corresponding week of 1849, when it was passing away, the number was 110. The 66 cases of last week were thus divided over the me tropolis :—ln the West districts 9, in the North 5, in the Central 2, in the East 8, and on the South side of the Thames 42. Medical informants are requested to inquire specially in all cases whether the attack of cholera commences by "diarrhoea," and to state the interval of time, in hours and days, between the appearance of diarrhcea and the supervention of spasms, or of the other characteristic symptoms of cholera. It is admitted that diarrhoea generally precedes cholera, and that diarrhoea should never be neglected for a single hour in a time of epidemic cholera. If it be established that the latter disease is invariably, or almost invariably, preceded by a well-defined stage of illness, which is amenable to medical treatment, it will at once allay alarm and be a most important addition to the resources of the medical art.

They are nearly all alike ; and as to whitewashing or painting the insides, that has not been done for many y ears .

The grandmother as renioved to th e un i on on Saturday, Ist w inst., suffering from cholera, and died on Sunday, 2d. I have applied to the owner of the house, who has com menced making the necessary improvements. The drainage is very bad." In consequence of the advice of the Ambassadors, the Sultan abstained for the time from any warlike proclamation, confining himself to dispatching in structions to Omer Pacha to hold himself in readi ness, as he might be called upon to act at any mo ment, but bidding him carefully abstain from hostilities till he should receive further orders. With these instructions there was no doubt Omer Pacha would comply, although he writes dispatch on dispatch to the Divan, requesting permission to' attack the Russians, whom he represents accurately as suffering dreadfully from disease and want of food, and as being, moreover, far inferior in num bers to his own army, which is full of health and spirits, and eager for fight. H e represents great danger in delay, as in that case the Russians would be able to receive reinforcements, whilst the Turks, of course, are constantly liable to the invasion of the fever and cholera, which have decimated the ranks of their enemies.

It i s t h en ill of ish th e e d probable that orders, such as he will be glad t o re ptorboebra,btlyhebedapyu ceive, will be dispatched to Omer Pacha, and there is no doubt that - the fleets will not remain idly at anchor in the Bosphorus.

There are from two to three feet of water and other filth and drainage from the cesspools lying under the houses, which oozes through the brickwork across the road into the adjoin ing property, to the great injury and annoyance of the inhabitants residing there.

Abou Maidstone the hop picking is nearly completed. Throughout the district there is a general complaint that the yield is exceedingly small ; those grounds that were expected to produce from 12 cwt. to 15 or 16 cwt. per acre, returning about 5 cwt. only. There is no doubt that the duty is still estimated at much too high a figure. In Mereworth the wet weather has hindered the hop picking, but it is expected, with few excep tions, it will be brought to a close about the end of this week. The crop, as has been before stated, falls short of expectation. Mereworth may this year boast of good quality, which command very high prices in the market. One grower realised 271. 17s. per hundred weight on Friday. At Brenchley some planters are fast drawing to a close in picking.

Chloride of Zinc, as the best Disinfecting and purifying agent, is now established beyond all doubt. It is perfectly harmless in its application and innoxious in itself. The high price at which it hPs hitherto been sold has prevented its general use; to obviate this obstacle to its universal application as a disinfecting and purifying agent, the present manufacturer, who was many years with Sir W. Burnett's Company, has arranged to supply the public with concen trated Chloride of Zinc in its greatest purity and at the lowest price. It is sold by all Chemists and Shippiner Agents in the United King dom, in Imperial Quart Bottles at 2s. 6d. each ; in pints, Is. ; half pints, 6d. each ; and in larger vessels at 6s. per Gallon. Each Bottle will be accompanied with instructions for its dilution and use. Concentrated Chloride of Zinc in use may be diluted with 200 times its quantity of water.

At the private dinner given by the Mayor of Liver pool on Wednesday evening to " the Earl of Derby and a distinguished party " his lordship made a speech, the pith of which is rendered in the "talk on 'Change" of the local Journal : " It was much debated beforehand whether his Lord ship would or would not enter upon points of public interest, or would confine himself strictly to general topics. He put •an end, however, to all doubt, as it is said, at'the opening of his speech, after his health had been proposed by the Mayor, by stating that, when he had accepted the invitation, he had expressed himself desirous of being considered merely as a private guest, and not as a public character. Notwithstanding this, he seems to have taken the opportunity of im pugning the statements which have lately been put forth, that the government of this country could be carried on independent of party. He alleged that all administrations must be, more or less, formed upon a principle of individual compromise, but that they could not be carried on with confidence to the nation if the elements were heterogeneous and had differed from each other by any broad line of separation ; that, two sections of the Cabinet being opposed to each other, the supporters of the respective views out of doors were always uncertain what portion would have the ascend ancy, and so hesitation, doubt, and collision necessarily ensued. This, we believe, was his lordship' s s t a t emen t of his cas e . He declared that he applied the reason ing generally, and without any individual or personal believe, eds distinguished it Cabinet,u e h n i g gh i l s y h c e o d m pl e i m e n t a r y t them om differentto application.b somee mel was, members r s t o we m ft h e o pconsideringpnfr o t t the s state day. He t oo k cre di t to himself for the tat r e o n s of e finances while h e was Mi n i ster, and for the position, commercially and otherwise, in which he left the Government. He explained what he had done in opening new markets in S ou th A mer i ca, and finished by emphatically asserting that, should the nation be called upon to support its policy by war, he and his party would be found among the foremost to uphold the dig nity of the Crown and the sacredness of treaties. He complimented the French Ministry for its concurrence with England, and flattered himself that, though there might have been some distrust of France in the first in stance, the straightforward manner in which the Em peror had since acted might have been somewhat influ enced by the increased confidence which the Govern ment of the day, and of which he had been the head, had subsequently placed in his declarations and his ac tions. He adverted with a considerable degree of feel ing to the sacrifice of personal comfort he had made in accepting office, but admitted that, if again called on by any emergency, he should be ready to obey his sovereign and serve his country. His lordship's speech was, we believe, much admired as a specimen of oratory, though many thought that reasoning sophistical. FREEROLD LAND SOCIETIES AND TEE IRANCHISE. On Monday the revising barrister for Middlesex resumed his court at the Belvedere Tavern, Penton-street, Isling ton, in order to proceed with the lists o f th e par i s h es and places within the district assigned to the poll at King's-cross. In the parish of St. Mary, Islington, there was a large number of claims arising out of freehold land which had become the property of the claimants through the agency of the St. Pancras, Marylebone, and Paddington Free hold Land Society. It will be remembered that upon the occasion of the last revision there were very nume rous claims of the same description ; but as these were for the most part 251. shares, and as a large number of them (the holders having been successful in the ballot) were still under a mortgage to the society, the barrister held that the amount of qualification was not sufficient ' • first, because he doubted whether a freehold purchased for 251. was of adequate value to yield an income of 40s, clear of all rates and charges ; and secondly, in the ease of the mortgage still being unredeemed that there was a further diminution in the value of the freehold. The effect of this decision was last year to disallow some hundreds of claims. In the interval which has elapsed since that period and the present revision very many of the old claimants have amended their qualifications by becoming possessed of another share, at the same time that they have re deemed any mortgage which the society might have upon the property. In all such cases the claims were yester day allowed. One instance will illustrate the decision. Elisha Archer yesterday claimed in respect of a freehold of the annual value of 40s. Mr. J. Wells, the secretary to the society, proved that the claimant had paid 521. 12s. for the freehold, that he had been possessed of it the re quisite time, and that there was no mortgage. Mr. Jones, the Conservative agent, said that he had opposed these claims on the ground that the value of the qualifi cation was insufficient, and that much of the property was still held under mortgage. Mr. Wells pledged him self that in every one of the present claims, the value was sufficient to comply with the decision laid down by the barrister last year, and that in none of them was there any mortgage to the society. Under these cir cumstances the claims, which were regarded with much interest, were established. THE LATE MURDER IN THE MINORIES.—The wretched marl Mobbs, who stands charged upon the coroner's in quisition with the murder of his wife, and whose trial was postponed at the last session of the Central Criminal Court until the session commencing on the 24th inst., still remains an inmate of the London ilospital, under the custody night and day of one of the City police ; the reason for his not being removed to the infirmary at Newgate is, that he will receive better attention in the hospital, and be in .a more fit state to undergo the fatigue of his trial. The wretched man, it is stated, has entirely recovered from the injuries he inflicted upon himself after the brutal murder ; but he appears in a very low and desponding state, and at times observes to those in attendance upon him that he is only being cured that he may be hanged at the Old Bailey, Inspector Marchant, of the City police, holds the warrant, but the prisoner's removal will not take place until the eve of the session. THE POPE AND THE _BILLIARD CUE.—A letter from Rome, in the Augsburg Gazette, says :—" In the palace of the Vatican a number of workmen are at present oc cupied in arranging the floors of the pontiffcal apart ments, and putting down marble or mossaic in place of the brick which has in general constituted, up to the present time, the flooring of these rooms. The regimen of walVing exercise in the open air, recommended by the medical advisers of the Pope, does not appear a suffi cient remedy to keep down his increasing corpulence, and he has been lately ordered, in addition, to play an hour every day at billiards. This his Holiness does from five to six in the evening, generally with Mgr. Stella. 7'2 _ _ BRUTAL TREATMENT OF PRISONERS IN WINCHESTER OAOL. Yesterday Mr. W. Payne held a lengthened inquiry at the Queen's Prison, 'SouthWa r k; O n the 156dy of Wit ham Jones, aged 53, an inintlte or. that:Prison to whiejt place he h a d b ee n removed by',7694gis 41- iia in chester G ao l a b ou t three month pus ro s agapandisvitere he died of feve r on S a t ur d ay _ n i g ht The principal witness was William Sills f Poulton, a debtor in the Queen's Prison, who said' .tbat a-person named William Miller , who had b een in Winchester Gaol for 43 years, 'wrote to=him on the 27th of July to inform him that Jones, the deceased, wasortoznin4e, and mentioned the dreadful treatment that both of them were then receiving. Witneiiihad been •thlre for months befor e he was 'l2 i l emd , ied the 0A er ii.l that prison. D ur i ng seven Rion* or that, timp4ror tasted animal f oo d , and no sustenance whatever but bread and gruel. Witness was in that prison for debt. It is a gaol for felons as well as for debtors. When a man first went there he was put into the sheriff's ward, which is a place for debtors, where they vieie 'kept for 14 days ; but if they did not settle' their debt or make application to the Insolvent Court they were removed to what was termed the convict prison. It, is called the D. wing, under the f e l on ' s gao l: The diet for Sund a y s was, for breakfast, one pint of gruel and, four ounces of bread ; for dinner, three ounces of c h eese and four ounces of bre a d. I n the evening the same as for breakfast. Every day the same for breakfast and supper. Monday the dinner consisted of four potatoes weighing, perhaps, half a pound, and four ounces of bread. Tuesday's din ner, three ounces of cheeSe and four ounces of bread. Wednesday's dinner, the same as on Monday--,four po. tatoes. For Thursday's dinner they had what w as termed a qu ar t o f soup and four ounces of bread. Fri. day's dinner consisted of three ounces of cheese and four ounces of bread. Saturday they had the same as on Thursday ; they had no meat whatever. The soup, he understood, was made from the water in which the felon's beef was boiled. Witness was not allowed to purchase anything, so that money was of no use to him. Everthing they received must come to them through the post, even to a sheet of paper. Witness used to complain to the surgeon in consequence of a rupture he was troubled with.. He wished him to get away from the prison, or the diet would kill him. He bad been confined in bedfor two .days without tasting food, because he could not touch the prison diet.' He spoke to th&doetor, and asked him for a little tea, but he made no reply, and pointed to the rejected gruel. All the debtor prisoners there were kept on the same allowance: The prisoners did not associate together, as each had a separate cell to sleep in and a separate yard (20 ft. by'3o ft.) to walk In. When witness first came to the Queen's Prison he was under the care of the doctor for several weeks, in consequence of the treatment he received in Winchester Gaol. He had several letters from Miller on the subject of his treat ment, directed to witness in a different name, as the governor would not let any of the prisoners correspond with there. any p erson who had previously been a prisoner In answer to a juror, the witness said -he understood the dietary was regulated by a bye law made by the visiting justices. He had complained to the board, but nothing had been done in the matter, and he was soon after removed to this prison. As soon as be had settled his debt he should bring an action against the county for the infamous treatment he had received whilst he was in Winchester Gaol. He bad written to the Secretary of State, calling his attention to it. The jury, after a consultation, returned the following verdict —" That the deceased died from fever, and the jury are of opinion that the evidence given before them as to the dietary of the debtors in Winchester Gaol ought to be inquired into by the Secretary of State." The coroner said he should send a copy of the verdict and of the depositions to the Secretary of State, as he considered, after what had transpired as to the different gaols throughout England, that Winchester Gaol ought to be inquired into. It was entirely out of his jurisdic tion to inquire as to the dietary of a prison, and the general treatment in gaols ; but it was a matter that came specially under the operation of the royal commis sion appointed for that purpose. The verdict was then signed, and the proceedings terminated. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. ALTA, OCT. 2. In naval mov emen t s th ere i s but little to commuicate, the Ardent alone having left port for the fleet, a few hours after the arrival of the Vectis from Marseilles, on the afternoon of the 29th of September, but, as that vessel did not even remain till the arrival of the Ripon from Southampton, the dispatches forwarded to Lord Redcliffe and to Admiral Dundas must have been of no small importance. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Vectis arrived on the 29th ult., in 51 hours, from Mar seilles. On the Ist inst. she proceeded on her first trip of the newly-established line to Naples, Civita Vecchia, Genoa, Leghorn, and Marseilles, which place she will reach on the sth, in time to bring on the portion of the India Mail sent through France on the Bth from Lon don. The Valetta will leave Marseilles on the 30th for the Tuscan and Italian ports, and will reach Malta on the 4th, in time to convey the homeward mails from India, expected here about the 9th inst., so that these vessels, instead of lying some days unoccupied at Mar seilles and Malta, will perform a trip which may prove ultimately profitable to the direction of the Peninsular Company. What arrangements may have been made to prevent delay in forwarding the India mail, in case of any acci dent happening to the contract ships, I cannot say, b u t presume th a t suc h a poss ibl e casualty not been over• looked in the interests of the commercial body. Sir William Reid has for the last few days been con fined to his palace by a slight indisposition.

At the time she struck the wreck she had over twenty fathoms water by the lead. ~~ . :: :5 .'. WOOLWICH, OaT. 11. APPOINTMENTS. Surgeon Robert W.

A NOVEL COMBINATION OF METALS. Messrs. Morewood and Rogers have taken out letters patent for their improvements in plurnbic-zinc, a material of modern introduction, combined, as its title im plies, of a layer of lead and zinc. Although to archi tects and builders in this country plumbic-zinc is comparatively unknown, the colonies appear to have readily appreciated its many qualities. At Victoria alone, after practically testing its merits, the Govern ment, for the improvement of that city, entered into contracts to an immense extent, and upwards of 200 tons have already been shipped from the Steel Yard, Thames-street, and, as the local journals state, arrived safely in Victoria. Its durability, toughness, and eco nomy are remarkable, and the purposes to which it is applied seem innumerable.-6/06e. • • / )ct. ii Dct. 2 1 Jct.
