TURKEY.

From Crnstantinople letters have been received up
to the 20:h u.t. Daring the week preceding that
due M. Titoff had been admitted to three conference.
with Rabid Pacha and Ali Pacha. These related to
the Danubian principalities. Titoff glided on to the
abuse of protection, although this question had been
eliminated from the note of his government. Hence
the refugee question, which everybcdy thought quite
dead and buried, has been moseitated. The fact is,
eat Russia is sot yet satisfied, and it may be safely
assumed that until she is satisfied no question can be
considered as settled. The new demand which she
Li- in the blekground is apparently the expulsion of
arum persons in the service of the Porte who have
exercised a beneficial influence in comateresiming Ros-
in designs upon the Christian pope/Mims. While
Turkey is thus bullied because two or three men of
frc.nees aid intelligence attempt to hold her outposts
amity Russia, there is throughout the Turkish em-
pire a Russian propaganda, whom only task is the
destruction (diatom. If Turkey were to demand the
ezpulsios of these, or rather to expel them, sines they
arc in htr own dominions, ohs would only be doing
in her own interest a very small part of what the
Czar now insists upon her doing in the teeth of her
own interest. The ground upon which M. Titoff has
laid his representations is thel treaty of Kotachuk
Ksicardji, 'wording to an article of which Russia
has the right of demanding the expulsion of Russian
subjects who machinate against her.
Sir Stratfurd Canning has also had a conference
with the Viz r and Ali Pasha. This diplomatic
braview turned upon certain reforms affecting the
Mu-oi.lman population as well as the Christian. It is
understood that the measures proposed ty Sir Strat-
ford were intended to counteract the ton visible
Imwth of Russian influence upon the Slavonia* pope-
lei* of Turkey. Not improbably, one of the mes-
terei urged by his excellency was the admission of
maks tato the Turkish army, and a corresponding
alitesent of the lierekt or poll-tax levied on
thristianr. Acim Bey, the Egyptian chargé d'affaires,
Win also admitted to the interview, se if to emptied.,
the English policy of 1840, and give to aeierstami,
that the measures proposed extended also to Egypt mei
yawl tithe Ports.
Ttis proceeding of the English ambassador meat,-
zebcee the belief here, general in well-informed
weer, that Lord Palmerston is much less apprehen-
sive of open war from Russia than of an underhand
mining of the Turkish empire by Hessian pats.
Much reliant is placed by the English gommeaust
on the efficaey of measures of administrative miscue
in Welles the empire together ; and certainly thin is
in some measure countenanced by the fact that the
resources of Turkey have greatly increased daring
the last 15 years, la which so many reforms have
lees se omplished.
31 Leosthice, the Russian consul of Belgrade, ham
liken it into his head to be immensely aggrieved at
so order of the Prince Alexander to all func-
tionaries to wear the fez. Tois is indeed a symbol
of Turkish influence, but the objection to such a
symbol in a province where the Bohan is &anew-
4dged as suzerain, throws a glaring light on the
errogance of Roman pretensions. Complaints have
been made by the Turkish government latterly' ageing
the meddles ma and vehement character and conduct
of M. I. whine. Titoff answered that the counsel
!it,Nht in Rossiaa and spoke in Sonia's and sines
h- knew this language but very imperfectly, he might
be mteralic exrcted tu make blunders. The fact is
teat Lt:oscliise has been misled by the representations
s'll4 etre-hussies' Senecas into making proms: tutilisr.citratioos. The adoption of the fez is oat-
Wired v., a decided snub to Russia.

Wallachia, General Ludas, has received orders

Fie

that there was no intention of complying therewith.

The last packet from Varna brought the noble wife
of Kossuth. All sorts of stories are current about a

West oa pnrpesa to favour this design, and how
one Signer thiansam west and told the Eng-
lish maiirmy at rare, and how Sir Stratford imme-
diately took the fair Maparess under his chivalrous
protection ; together with much else on which wide-
mouthed marvel feeds. So mach is true, that all
circles are greatly interested in this lady, who seems
so less beautiful than true and brew. She goes, it
seems, for the present under a fictitious name.
