WARSAW, JAN. =)2.—Though it might be con-
cluded from the late movements of our troops that
the Cabinet of -St. Petersburgh is engaged only in
plans of war, persons who are well informed of the
....curse of atfaire, pretend to know that all thee-e pre-
parations are only for a certain ca e, and that there
neither a denite nor a necessity to take the field, if
the political system of the Eiree 'owners allied by the
treaty of London is maintained. They found their
opinions on the following arguments :—The Porte,
they say, doubted that the departure of-the Ambas-
sadors would be approved by their Sovereigns, and
therefore thought' that it might, without any danger,
not only refine- the concessions required, but even
complam of the Ambassadors. A declaration, which
aecording, to an arrangement made at London is to
be presented to the Porte, will clearly explain the
ratentions of the three Cabinets, avid will convince
the Porte that the a mbassadore, in the conferences
tst Constantinople, acted entirely aecoiding to the
sentiments of their (;;avernmerits, and that their de-
parture was the result of superior older's.
This -declaration will indUce the forte to answer
the desires of the three Powers, and to send to a
port of the Mediterranean, where the three Ambas-
zadoes lately accredited at Constantinople will meet,
deputies, to terminate the negociatious on the ques-
tion in dispute.
Tire conferences, at Aksunan have proved that
When an earnest manner is adopted towards the
Ottoman negoeiators, difficulties are soon removed,
and a happy result attained. The language which
the Allies- now intend to use, and with which a time
will be fixed for the Porte,-not only for the arrival of
its deputies-, but for the close of the negociatious,
Will take from it every idea of making objections
against sending the Plenipotentiaries as required,
and will put art 601.6- all the scruples which it ha'.
hitherto ralnift,:ited, as soon . as it Shall know that if
the protocol is not signed by a certain day, a deela•
ratioit of war by:the three Powers will follow'. As
long as union )prevails between the three Courts, we
may be eettain that, in spite of all the military pre-
parations, peace will not be interrupted.—Augsbure
