LONDON, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1853,

It is not merely as a demonstration against the
Russians that the ambassadors of France and

England required the presence of certain vessels
of war from their respective fleets in the Sea of

M.armora. They were also required as a protec-
tion for French and English subjects residing or
carrying on business in the Turkish metropolis.

Nay, more, as a material guarantee for the safety

of ABD-UL-MEDJID himself. Nothing can afford a
more powerful illustration of the excitement pre-
vailing at Constantinople, of the fierce exasperation
of the Moslems of all classes—than the fac t that Eng-

lishmen, who were once regarded as their best friends,
are now looked upon with contempt and. indignation.
They feel that it is owing to the pusillanimous, if

not the insidious councils of the Western Powers
that they have been subjected to such deep
humiliation—such indelible disgrace. That they
have been induced to stand by, armed and
in every way prepared for hostilities, while an
enemy
occupies their territories, without a single
effort being made for his expulsion. They must
have been either
more or less than men if they
could have borne the insults and contumelies
heaped on them by the invaders, without an ar-
dent desire for vengeance, not merely against the
oppressors, but against all who participated in
keeping them in a state of inglorious
in preventing them from marching against the foe,
and perishing honourably with arms in their
hands, and facing the enemy.
And this is the state to which the pacific policy
of the " dear and excellent ABERDER„
' has re-
duced England among foreign nations. This is
the degradation which he has heaped On the Bri-
tish name. Once the British passport—a tower
of strength in itself—was not necessary for an Eng..
Hallman in Constantinople. He was surrounded
by friends who required no additional motive to
render him aid and assistance in any emergency.
Now, the presence of an armed force is necessary
for his protection against those who a short time
since woald have been ready to do battle d
l'outrance in his behalf. What a deplorable com-
mentary on the proceedings of the Russo- Auglican
Members of the Coalition, and of the results of
their unstatesmanlike, unmanly, arid vacillating
policy.

But whatever may have been the cause of the
recent step, we rejoice that it has been taken, and
we only hope that the remainder of the combined
squadron may have followed the vanguard, and
anchored in the Byzantine waters. Their pre-
sence there, however it may have originated, will
oppose an insurmountable obstacle to the nefarious
designs which were alike supported by fraud
nd force. Russia has, however, flung aside
disguise formerly assumed.
even the trifling
he
has cast off the flimsy veil—and stands re-
vealed in all her naked atrocity. The last Note of
Count NESSELRODR (a copy of which appeared in
our impression of Saturday), plainly and unequi-
vocally indicates the intentions and determination
of the CZAR-and proves that, with all his pro-
fessions of moderation, he never faltered or loss
sight for even a single moment of the great object
