We haie little additional intelligence from the
Continent to-day respecting the question of Peace
or War between Russia and the Porte ; but it

must be obvious to our Readers that war is ine-
vitable. The British Government have made

every exertion in their power to avert it, but. the
bigotry, obstinacy, and cruel policy of the
Porte have rendered all their efforts abortive ;
and we are enabled to state upon authority, on
Which we have the most perfect reliance, that we
trlzty daily expect to receive intelligence of the
actual 'commencement of hostilities. Information
to this effect has been in our possession.for several
Gaya, and every arrival from the Continent has
contributed to prove its correctness and authen-
ticity. However confidently it may be stated by
• other papers, that the British Government enter.

Which they have adopted is not only the most poli-

desires,--the independence of Greece, established
Ta a firm basis, equally free from the barbarous
system of the Turks, and from any controul or
influence on the part of Russia which might en-.

10 the indignities offered to our Ambassadors ; and
eye have reason to believe that the Govermnent are
Possession of official information of the particu-
lars, and that they are convinced that the forbear-
ance which they have hitherto observed, from
the best of motives, can no longer be preserved ;
4114 that they must resort to more effective mea-
sures than mere negotiation, to secure the Greek

Inn from utter extermination. We are also
