pointed in their hopes. We Pan now assume the position, ,
regards the dispute between the Sultan and the Greeks of Cs 4
dis, which we ought to have assumed in that between him an.
M helmet Ali. The hatti scheriff of Gulhane, which ernane.s"
pated the Christians, is a dead letter in Turkey, like all its.
other reforms, because the Porte has only as instrumentsbBol
execution ignorant and ill-disposed Turks. Nothing t
done for the Christians of the east so long as they shall pet
have have the guarantee of France for the engagements of
Porte."
And the National srintains something in the same strain :•"::
" By intervening in good season between the Porte, or
rather its allies, and the Christians who are arming for ithl;
dependence, it would be possible to gain some refection
influence which we did not care to assert by the protecti...
of Egypt. But our Government will not do this. It pill

We do not calumniate the French Government in prejudef
r:iits intentions and its conduct. The past enables us to Pr

question, it is sufficient to see how each of the Great pole c
is preparing to act. Whilst the Russians are at the gat1,01...

The Galignani, a paper that seldom indulges in Peb
affairs, has some judicious observations in reply to the se
and the National—of which we willingly give an extracts--

article of the Presse which we noticed yesterday, that rNt
efforts are making by different parties here to revive th t
claim which is said to have been made by M. Thierk,
the island of Candia should be placed under the dithe
guardianship of France, and, if we may judge bloived
language now used by the opponents of the policy this
by the Cabinet of Marshal Soult, such a concession as .
on the part of the Four Great Powers would give rot over"
