THE PROTBOTOR OP CONSERVATIVE EUROPE.

(Prom, tke Siecle.)
we now know by the publication of a Russian
manifesto that the Emperor Nicholas assumes the
title of protector of Conservative Europe. This
false Tamerlane, who only owes the aggrandise-
effected either by cunning, or by
ment of his Empire to a succession of robberies,
who had counted on the relative weaknessthi man,
of the
Turks to confiscate Constantinople for his benefit,
now assumes the mask of an inspired Pontiff who
arms ; ( s
has received from Heaven a civilising mission. The
Communists, that is the French and English, hastened
to protect the rights and territory of an independent
nation ; as to him who wished to take possession of
the States of the Sultan, he is the Conservative par
excellence, the representative of the principle of
right and authority. This is the logic at St. 'Pe-
tersburg. Although the Czar has long since fami-
liarised us with the its and starts of his policy, we
never could have credited even from him such an
excess of impudent subtlety. This Russian is a real'
Greek of the Lower Empire ; he would have occupied
the first rank among the sophists of Byzantium. Con-
servative of the knout, protector of national degradation
—such are his titles • but this barbarian spoke the truth
when he talked of the struggle of two principles. As
we said two days ago the duel is now between two ideas,
between civilisation and barbarism, and we feel sure of
success. The day on which the French and English
placed their foot in the Crimea, it was a revolution which
entered with drums beating into the States of the Em-
peror of Russia. Ile will meet with it hereafter.

ABERDEEN IJNIVEnSITIES.—At a meeting of the Es
tablished Presbytery of Aberdeen, held on Thursday, Dr.
Paul submitted a series of resolutions on the subject of
the union of the universities, which were agreed to, only
one member dissenting. 13y these resolutions, the Pres-
bytery undertook to give a favourable consideration to
any well-matured plan for the union of the two univer-
sities, with a new and more extensive governing body,
in which the graduates of those universities eiiall be
fairly represented. The Presbytery expressed their
strong disapprobation of the proposed union of King's
and Marischal Colleges, as an unnecessary interference
with chartered rights and testamentary deeds ; a Unadc
visable in consequence of the increasing population of
the country, and of the growing intelligencei desire for
instruction, and prosperity of the people ; as creating:--
in consequence of the additional numbers likely to at-
tend the classes of the -United Colleges of Arts great
difficulties in the way of examination and discipline ; as
placing obstacles in the way of changes which might be
desirable in the one college, but which might be unsuit-
able to the circumstances of the students in the other ;
and as productive of great inconvenience to the inhabi-
tants of Aberdeen by an unnecessary suppression oT
the Marischal College of Arts, and the fixing of the seat
of the united colleges at' so pleat a distmkbe. from, Aber.
