LONDON, SATURDAY, JULY 30, 1853.

In all likelihood we shall learn definitively,
about the 10th of August, whether or not Turkey
is to be the cause of warfare among the nations of
Christendom. It cannot, we fear, be known
earlier, than that date if Russia is willing to con-
cede to the reasonable demands of the Allied
Powers, or if the CZAR is still determined, at all
hazard, to tempt the fortunes of battle, in his
anxiety to effect the virtual disruption of the
Ottoman Empire, and the ultimate seizure of
Constantinople. Another fortnight must, in all
human probability, bring intelligence as to the
result of the more than ever momentous and still
pending negotiations. An explanatory word or
two may not be altogether unacceptable just now,
in reference to those same negotiations. It must
be remembered, therefore, in the first instance,
that, it was only on the 24th instant (viz.,- last
Sunday), that the diplomatic representatives of Eng-
land, France, Austria, and Prussia finally resolved
at Vienna upon the nature of the course to be
pursued under existing circumstances. A project
was thereupon agreed to, as precisely and satis-
factorily expressive of the sentiments of their re-
spective Governments. In consequence of this
arrangement, a proposal in the shape of an ulti-
matum was despatched on the day following (viz.,
the 25th instant, or last Monday) to the Councils
of the Autocrat : and upon a inoderate computa-
tion of time and distance, it pis calculated that
either to-day, or at the latest by the 31st instant
(to-morrow), that the ultimatum from the Four
Powers will have arrived in St. Petersburg' h.
Allowing the lapse of time requisite for its due
Consideration by the Russian Government, and
for the transmission of the reply via Vienna to
the Cabinets of St. James's and the Tuileries, the
Prqesial may possibly be answered by the 7th
proximo, probably by the 10th, but certainly within
a fortnight, the to knowledge of the French and
English Governments. This upon a reasonable
calculation. According to the character of the
response acceded to the proposal of the Four Powers
by his Imperial Majesty the CZAR so shall we be
enabled thereupon at once to estimate the pro-
gotiations. That result
pro-
bable result Of theSe 'le
must be an immediate alternative either the
instant commencement of hostilities or the rapid
arrangemeni of a pacification. Russia
cannot
any longer than the period just specified contrive
f to
,procrastinate matters by
the shuffling
0. her
diplomatists or by the duplicity-of her autocratic
Administration. Delay beyond the period before
mentioned must prove altogether impracticable,
however desirable that continued delay may
be ,to the wily chief at once the head and
heart of the Russian Government. The
witimatum transmitted last Tuesday from Vienna
by the representatives of England, France, A.us-
trim', and Prussia, for acceptance or refusal by the
Councils of St. Petersburgh, is no chameleon- j
note or •kaleidoscopic document, to be patched,
and: cobbled; and warped, and inodified at the
whim or pleasure of the AUTOCRAT. It is
something more than an ordinary ultimatum
--it is nothing less than an extraordinary
vit;anatisshaarm. Its proposals must he frankly
acceded to by the CZAR, or they must be boldly
rejected as extravagant. In the former case the
terms of peace may be speedily negotiated ; in
the latter, we must inevitably 'witness, as already
intimated, the immediate commencement of
hostilities, supposing, however, that Itusql,
