she did not intend to maroh southward. We, although
giving full credit to the known bravery of the Turks,
could not bring ourselves to believe that they would be
able to resist the great numerical
_superiority and dia•
cipline of the Russian troops, commanded as they were
by able generals, while the only general whose name wail known on the side of the Turks was Omer Pacha, wit*
had not then the opportnnities he has since no nobly
used in establishing his -reputation.
.So much were we
and the French Governaibut convinced of- this, tbso
General Burgoyne and an experienced French en -
officer were sent to Constantinople in order to devises'
means-of defending that city and the .Thirdanelles;. azidt:
so much importance was attached to that measure, and
so entirely was the campaign -mini-meted- with it,'-
the departure of St. Arnaud and Lord Raglan**. Cibst
layt d .in order that they might ha.veperseW.:ifitillitie
with the officers who had been despatched on tisitCepif-s;
cific service. • The allied army-went to Gallipo where
A.
of defeedifig •
great works were. thrown up, and also
nople, laying the neceisitY •
fully in view. On their arrival they were
enthusiasm, and their presence imperted.4ew courage
and vigour to the Turks. SubstineitlY iheeortimid.
ders of the two armies went to (Varna to meet Omar'
Pacha ; who entreated that a large number of the allied ,
forces might come to- that place, kil6wing the moral:
effect that their presence would hateasithoin hoer.'
The Russians made every exertion ha- ilistrin be-
fore their arrival. The fortress haatatio heroically de.
feuded, but the arrival of the tan% 7w goat useful.'
The Russians evacuated the DubrtiOstmk4so recrossed,
the Danube ; thes putting an end total southern move-
ments on their part, and making defy neive war a pow
tion no longer to be thought of or alluded to. In trots.'
sequence of these events, our armies are now free, and
Probably have commenced those important operations
to which my noble friend has alluded. (Hear, hear): ra
the Baltic we have two of the most powerful' fleets that,
ever left the two countries, and if our success has not
been se great against a power which obstinately refuses '
battle, and shuts up its fleets within granite walls, yd,
it must be recollected that the ships so situated
are
blockaded _up and rendered perfectly useless, and when.
we consider what our trade is, and how our revenue and
our position amongst the nation depend upon that trade,
,I say that it is not an unimportant result that our ships
traverse every sea as free from danger as if there was it
universal peace. The consequence, then, of the Russian
ships.being blocked up is, that our trade is flourishing,
My noble friend should also remember that while our.
ships are prosecuting their traffic in perfect safety, the
Russian trade is nearly extinct. - I am not able to quote
prices like my noble friend, who can state the terms on
which Russian productions are brought to this country.
All I know is, that they cannot come through the Bal-
tic ; and with respect to what comes by way of Memel,
I understand that the prices of tallow coming over /and.
is from 101. to 201. a ton—a price at which I Cannot
conceive that much business can be done. My noble
friend knows as well as I do that the trade of Russia
is usually carried on with English capital, which ia
necessary for collecting her productions and bringing
them to market. All that has now entirely ceased, and
the industry of that country has been consequently para-
lysed, while the want of markets has deprived the Rus-
sian proprietor of the means on which he depended to
meet his numerous heavy expenses. Now, I know that
these are not very heroic results, but I feel that they
will do what my noble friend has pointed out as being
desirable—they will create more pressure on all classes
in Russia and produce a more profound impression than'.
even if Sebastopol and Helsingfors had fallen for the
gratification of our national ambition and military ardour.
(Hear, hear.) We know that in order to maintain her-
self in this war, and over the vast territory which she
occupies, Russia has been obliged to maintain and in.
crease vast armies in Bulgaria, Livonia, Finland, Po-
land; the Danube, Circassia, and the Crimea. We know
what has been the enormous loss of life, and the im-
mense number of conscripts it has taken to fill up the
vacancies caused by death. I cannot state the exact
number.; but we have seen " ukases" coming out, by
which two, five, and even seven per cent. of their serfs
have been taken from the proprietors ; and when .we
remember that the price of a serf is put down at not
less than 601., what a tax these levies must be, not
only upon the revenues of the proprietors but on their
capital. (Hear. hear.) They must tend to produce a
deep impression on those classes who are not favourable
to the war, whose fanaticism has not been raised, and
who cannot be persuaded to believe that their religion
is in danger. (Hear, hear.) Your lordships will also
bear in mind that, owing to the perfidy of the Greek .
Government, an insurrection was got up in the pro-
vinces of Turkey at the instigation of Russia. It pro- ,
mised to be most formidable to the Porte, but owing
to the energy and determination of the English and
French Governments, the insurgents have laid down
their arms, peace has been restored, and I believe
there are better prospects of tranquillity -in those mis-
guided countries than ever' there were before. It is . a
pleasure to me also to be able to add, that the effect
of these events has been only to confirm the good
understanding between the two armies, and to cement ;
the cordial relations which had before existed between
the two Governments. The Emperor of Russia no longer
thanks that the people of this country are all for peace, .
and enervated against war, or that the alliance between
England arid France is a rope of sand. The illusion also
that Russia is superior to all other nations in military
power, and in the success of her diplomacy has been com-
pletely dispelled. These, my lords, are after all no con-
tewptibie results. (Hear, hear.) I have already said it
would be u,ele-s to detail the conditions on which we-
shall be willing to make peace ; but we are all of the.
same opinion, namely, that the object with which we
make war is to obtain a just, honourable, and, as far as
human foresight can ensure it, a lasting peace, and we.
believe that no peace can be just, honourable. or likely
to be lasting, that does not secure the independence and.
integrity of the Turkish empire, that does not make that
empire a part of the general system of European policy,
and that does not secure it from menace, from invasion,
and from danger. My lords, in order to secure those
objects, we desire to have the co-operation of other .go-
verninents ; but we do not depend upon that co-opera-
tion. France and England will not relax their efforts
under any circumstances. We rely on our own re—
sources and the justice of our cayse, and although we
are ready to negotiate for peace, we shall never do so,
unless with those conditions attached which we believe
to be just, and which the whole of Europe is interested
iu niaintaining. (Cheers.)
