But although her inohnation

ttion in a question where her 'two
allies are at. variance, and thus pushing things to
an extreme, Turkey should make another attempt
at a compromise by appealing to the three Powers
who have made a special treaty to guarantee the
integrity and independence of her empire. This
appeal, if accepted by France and England, would
go far to save appearances, and would tend to re-
establish the original position of the-Allies which has
been oflate rather disturbed, without, on the other
hand, endangering the question itself, for it ought
Beareely to be supposed that the three Powers who
oh„tought it necessary seven months ago to con-
ude a special treaty for the guarantee of Turkey
Iveuld now agree to anything which would be pre-
Jucicial .to the latter. This arrangement is, of
eonrse, based on the supposition that has been
hitherto maintained on all sides, namely, that
the differences which have arisen on this clues-
'4l4°T.l are differences of form only ; for, if the con
I.%rarY should be proved, and that England and
Rratice have really come to a different conclusion
tla the importance of Bolgrad, then this compro
rise comes too late.
From what I can ascertain, no positive answers
41,,,,11Ve been as yet given to the proposal of the
'arte. The telegraph is, however, busy in
Carrying questions and explanatory answers be-

it a solution, one way or another, may be soon

Yesterday morning, the American sailing cor-
vette Constellation, 21, came into the Golden
coe, and exchanged her salute with the
atteries of Topkhane. The appearance of a
flan-of war not belonging to the allies, caused
rather an excitement, especially as the first
report had. . enlarged her into a sixty gun
'rigate, • for how could a Russian man-of-war be
excluded from the Dardanelles if the straits were
ot closed to an American ? but she belongs to the
.eliass of smaller vessels which have always received
f~e permission to come up even in times of peace
ter an occasional visit.
In the night cf Tuesday or Wednesday a large
broke out in one of the back streets of Pera,
lasted till the morning, and consumed he
Iti'ean 400 and 500 houses, belonging mostly
10 the poorer classes. AlthouL.h engines were
!-rought up very qnickly from all sides it
wan impossible to stop it, as there- was very
little water to be had, and that had to
'be
-brought up from some distance. Although
noisy and active, the firemen do not seem to work
tinder any general direction, and this. is the cause
'9l their inefficiency. Besides this, the means
!Placed at their disposal are never sufficient; they
lave nothing more than small pumps, which are,
11 is true, 'necessary for the narrow tortuous
'treets, but which ought not to preclude the use
of
.larger engines, which, stationed in the next
erauhtare, and provided with long hose,
ec'eld alone be effective in larger fires ; nor
arethere any tanks or reservoirs which could
supply the necessary amount of water which, in a
tow n nearly entirely built of wood, ought cer-
-la'nlY not to fail. But did Constantinople even
~ (laaess the most perfect fire brigade, and all the
,v,-leessary means to work, there will never be safety

e great difficulty is this, as in every other im-
provement on this side of the water, is that
