lirsSlA AND TURKEY.

The Turkish question has passe(' into a new
phase, seelortling to the intelligence reeeired during
the week. War in the F:nst of Europe appears
now Ahmed inevitable. The Vienna Conference has
broken lip ; and Anstria withdraws fmm partnership
tieTotintion hitherto carried 1111 by the four powers in
ithisen, declaring that eirennistanees no longer per-
mit her to get unitedly with them. t7iimte linol has
derided that the project of a note submitted by M.
I)muyn de Llmys is not muttheiently tirtetit in the
sense of acceptance. Energetic instmetions have ae-
cerolingly been transmitted to M. de Bruck that, as
circumstances do not permit colleetive action, each
power is at liberty to give such guarantees as it may
see fit ; hot requiring him to insist, on the part of
Austria, upon the acceptance of the original note by
the Porte.
The proeess by which this result has been aelliensl,
and Anstria iletaelirot from the alliance with the
Western powers, 14 thus stoned :--rpen receipt of the
note as amended by Turkey at tit. Peterslotirg, °mint
de Nesselroole drew tip two despatches, in one of
which, destined exclusively for Austria, he dismissed
point by point the proposed modifications ; the other,
addressed to the great posers, contained a general
declaration of the motives which hail derided the
Emperor to reject. them. In the foormetr of them)
notes the writer expresses his astonishment that M.
de duel should have even sent forward the amended
note, because he ought to have understood that tinder
the eireummtsnees there could he no chants' of its
being accepted. When the Emperor admittedthe
proffered pool (drives of Austria, lie gave it to be itti
destined that he had stimendered all further right of
dismission, a rendition equally binding on the Porte.
liel(eol, the matter is treated pretty much as an
alfair of honour, where principals plum, themselves in
the hands of seconds. The Emperor had, it, is oil
leged, a right to believe that the project. was *sort of
ultimatum of the Court of Austria, in the sense that
that Court had previously assured itself of the ac-
ceptance of Turkey, or that it was in a position to
obtain ultimately the pure and simple adliesi nn of
the Sultan, either by its own proper efforts or by
those of the powers who hail more particularly
shewn themselves the allies and protectors Of the
Ottoman Porte.
Vieloling, or alreeting to yield, to these reavons, the
Austrian Court has adopted the Russian side, in the
dispute. Some further consequences of this serious
step may be expecte(' to develop themselves during
the pending eonferenee between the two Emperors at
