TURKEY AND RUSSIA.

On the Russo-Turkish subject we are without all
fresh positive news. It seemed to be a general feeling
in Russia that should the occupation of the Danubian
Principalities not suffice to bring the Porte to its senses,
the troops would cross the Danube ; that in the present
state of things the Emperor was not likely to conten,
himself with the mere gratification of his modified de;
mands ; and that neither the military preparations
the Porte, nor the address of thanks presented to the
Sultan by the Greek clergy of Constantinople, had male
tny impression in the higher regions.
The English and French Governments having de‘
manded rn explanation from the Austrian Cabinet re'
specting the concentration of an army in the neighbour:
hood of Peterwardein, they have been informed that 1"
was of an exclusively defensive character. The encamp'
ment will consist of about 50,000 men. The Emperor
has left Vienna on a tour through Moravia, for the pm'
pose of inspecting the military establishments.
There are three American vessels at present with tin
Turkish fleet in the Bosphorus ; the frigate Cumberlano,
is reported to have brought a considerable amount 0'
money to Constantinople.
The Journal de Franefort, said to be one of the
organs of the Russian Government, contains in its ninly
ber of the 9th a rather angry contradiction to a state"
meat in a London journal of the Austrian Cabinet hali
ing given its adhesion to the policy of England atT,
France on the Eastern question. The Journal a'
Francfort states that Austria has endeavoured to bring
about a reconciliation between Russia and Turkey, as
she sincerely desires the maintenance of peace, but that
she is resolved to keep up a close alliance with Russia,
as that power is her surest protection against revolution'
The Cologne Gazette has the following from Vienne
dated the 11th :—" The Austrian Government canna'
remain a passive spectator of events. It intends to,
form a camp of 60,000 men near Peterwardein. The fate'
corps d'armde has already received orders to be ready te,
march. On the 14th, the brigade of Count Degenfeldn
will leave Vienna, and the regiment Constantine win
form the advance guard. Towards the middle of Angus', there will be established in Moravia, at Tures, neat
Baun, a camp of throe corps d'armee. The fedi/ni
general inspection will take•place at the same time. t,
is said that Count Giulay, who has gone to St. Peters'
burgh, will not return to Milan, but will obtain a Cony
mand in Hungary. The Emperor set off to-day, f°r
Moravia to inspect several military establishments."
The Trieste Gazette announces that a camp of 80,000
regular troops is now being formed at Elzeroum. 91/
the Cireassiana in the service of the Porte have bee°
concentrated at Trebisond and organised into a regular'
corps, to be placed under the orders of Schamyl in the
event of a war. -
The Austrian Internuncio having the satisfaeti°_,.l'
which he had demanded from the Porte, for the Oa'
at Smyrna, is contending with the American Minister
for the possession of M. Kossta. The latter has been
removed fronithe Hussar, and is at present under the
care of the French Consul at Smyrna.
A letter from Bucharest states that Omer Pacha CO.,°:
the
Russian for more than two hours in his cabinet with ,
Russian general, Niepokoitschiski, sent by Prince GO"-
schakoff to the Turkish Quartier-General at Schwab"
Two officers of Omer Pacha's staff were present at the
interview. At its termination the Turkish commander
sent off two Tartars to Constantinople with dispatchee'
General Niepokoitschiski left the same day under
Turkish escort.

At the request of the Russian Consul-General t4l°
Moldavian Government has appointed eighteen corallii'v
sioners to execute the orders of the Russian Commander.
in-Chief.

The Posen Gazette, under date of Warsaw, Ist, sat,
"An officer of the army of occupation of the PrinciPcci
lities has written to his brother that the army Nv0?,,6
remain therefor the winter, and that in consequence tit
officers wished to have their families there. The lettP,
having been communicated to several persons, the polio hours afterwards required that the letter should IS7_
c°
given up to them. Thus, it appears that letters, as
as travellers, are the object of special vigilance."
The Wanderer of Vienna announces from Cons
tinople that Austria has recommended the Prince u
Montenegro to demand the investiture from the poi and that the prince will take advantage of the visit 45. an archduke to Constantinople to go with him to ti*
capital.
A private letter from Constantinople states that thd,,
result of a late Divan was, that the minds of the Turkisu
Ministers had accustomed themselves to the idea of
possible arrangement, and one that the Sultan would
probably be brought to acquiesce in. This cannot f'
of being a satisfactory feature in the prospects of ow
allies in their present exertions at St. Petersburgh, sink
one of the great difficulties of late seems to have been
restrain the undue elation of the Porte at finding itself
so energetically backed.

A private telegraphic dispatch from Vienna, dateti
yesterday, does no more than repeat what has been 8, °
often stated, namely, that the ultimatum, of Russia, 111
substance the same, but in form different, will be ek"
cepted by the Porte, with the addition that the guars"'
tees will not be given to Russia alone, but to all the
Powers. The fact is, nothing of a positive kind can be
known till the answer of the Russian Cabinet to the
joint note of England and France be received.
The Journal de Constantinople contains an addrese
of thanks signed by the patriarch, metropolitans, arch.
bishops, notables, and elders of the Greek Church in
Turkey. A great part of the firman of the 6th June is
quoted, and "the infinite joy and eternal gratitude
with which it has inspired the subscribers to the address
is grandiloquently expressed. The document is nause.
ously servile, but one passage is worthy of quotation
" Our nation is of opinion that its first religious al'd
bounden duty is to continue heart and soul subject to
the Imperial Government, and to shed the last drop o',
its blood for the august person of your Majesty." The
Armenians and Jews have also presented addresses, le
which the same sentiments are expressed in much more
dignified language.
