or at least as the effects of the manoeuvres of that Cabi-
net which has never ceased to convert the said alliance to

its own purposes. The organs of the Austrian Govern!
ment have themselves declared that the changes which
brought about the said massacre were called for by the
Ambassadors of the Christian Powers at Constantinople.
The chief glory of the affair is, however, to be ascribed to
the agent of Austria.
The interest which this indolent Power seems to take
in upholding the integrity of the Sultan's dominions, is
too well known to require further notice ' • it may, hoW-
ever, he. worth while to observe, that all political views
apart, the newly projected organization of the Turkish
army would turn out to be particularly advantageous
to the commercial speculations of the Austrian ma-
.nufacturers, who have supplied the necessaries of
equipment and costume to those troops that were to be
disciplined after the European fashion. It is a fact that,
within a very short period, a great quantity of cloth has
been spld to the Turks by those manufacturers; to such a
degree, that the warehouses which had been quite filled at
Vienna, Trieste, and those maritime places which trade to
the Levant, are now completely emptied. So that without
the least exaggeration, it may be fairly said that the mas-
sacre of so many human beings has been brought about
merely to enable the manufacturers of Austria to sell a few
ells of cloth more than they otherwise would have sold.—
But notwithstanding all this, it is doubtful whether the tot-
tering basis of the Ottoman Empire will be made firmer by
such policy—whether the other European Powers, and
'particularly Russia, will agree to such a system of things.
In the first instance, the Pachas and Governors of Pro-
vinces will find much difficulty in executing the orders of
the Grand Seignior, even where most willing to do so,
for the .Janissaries and Timariots, comprised in the re-
form, constitute almost the entire of the armed force in

the provinces; and so far as regards the Cabinet of St.
Petersburgh, it would be supposing a blind abandonment
of its dearest interests, to think that it would admit with
satisfaction the project of raising the. Porte to the rank of
a first rate power, for the sole purpose of being'a counter-
poise to, its own preponderance in the balance of power in
Europe.
