A Cabinet Council assembled this day at one o'clock
at the Foreign Office, at which all the Ministers, with'
the exception of the Duke of WaLunoTox, attended,
and they remained in deliberation when our Paper
went to press. Rumours of varinus descriptions are in
circulation, which we :ball not repeat at present.

The Oxford Election has terminated as we expected.
Sound principles have triumphed over modern liberal-
ism. Sir ROSIRT H.ltrctta was returned on Saturday by
a majority of one hundred and forty-six above Mr.
Pen, and we know that if the Poll bad been pro.
longed, the majority would have been increased.
This is areal triumph to the cause of the Ceestitados
,fn Church and State as established in these realms; and
its influence on the question which is now agitating the
country from one extremity to the ether, will be very
considerable. Reflecting persons will see by the result
of this Election that the assertions which have been so
broadly made of the intelligent part of the community'
being in favour of Catholic Emancipation, is without
'foundation. Here were arranged on the side of Mr.
Pest. the influence of the State—the advantages of long
connection with the University—the possession of the
highest academical reputation—the power in his own
hands of enormous patronage—and the certainty of
the votes of all the* who from party or sectarian aso.
Alves have always been in favour of Calailin,

On the other hand, Sir ROSERT limas possessed
no advantage whatever but that of holding opinions
opposed to Concession, and he ptevaile r. Can there
be any greater proof, therefore, that the real senti-
ments of the University are decidedly ant in prin-
ciple opposeJ to the measures to which Mr. Pm.
has become a convert ? Aid can such a manifestation
of 4,pinion, from such a body, fail to create an impres-
sion and produce its effect on the public mind in every
part of the kingdom ? We are sasi-fieJ it will produce
a most important effect; and we are not without oar
hopes that the Royal Mind may participate in those
feelings which the solemn decision of the'firtt University
in the world are so well calculated to produce in the
people at large.
_ _

In conclusion, we cannot refrain from remarking,
that we consider Mr. Pact. did not act either with
honour to himself, or with fairness to his former fiiends,
in allowing hinsse4 to be proposed for the Univeisif
and in using the whole influence of the Government to
secure his re election, after he had resigned his seat.
If he had succeeded, over whom would he have
triumphed? Would it not have been over his own long.'
cherished principles, and the most faithful of his forms
friends? over those men who consc.entiously adhered to
opinions which he had declared to be just and right.—
and by departing from which, he admits that an inroad
will be made on the Cinstitution of 1688 ?

The Paris Papers o f Finlay were received last night
They contain no news The Mmitterial Papers con-
tradict the reports in circulation. that the Army of the
Morn was about to be augmented.
The Funds continued at the same prices. Extracts are
given in another column.

German and Brussels [Was also reached us vest
day, but their contents are unimportant. An Officer
charged with a Special Mission from the Emperor cf

column.

The rancour with which the advocates of modern
liberalism attack those who adhere to the principles ia
which they have been educated, and which they con-
scientiously believe to be sound and right, is a practical
demonstration of the demoralising tendency of their
own doctrines, and a proof, if any were wnntir.,;, of the
depravity of the human mind when not under the in-
fluence of the Christian religion. The columns of all
the Papers which ptotess themselves libetal, testify the
illiberality and uncharitableness of their principles, its
judging of, and condemning the (naives of others; and
with a strange perversity of reasoning, deny that libetty
of thought and action to other men which they so
largely and distinctly claim for themselves. With every
respect for the improvements of science and the ad.
vance of natural knowledge, and with a due regard
also for that match of intellect which we hear so
much of in these days, we are nevertheless, both
from education, and the conviction of riper years,
impressed with the paramount importance if the in.
trence of religion on the human mind, and the ones.
airy therefore of supporting it by every means consistent
with its nature, and with that liberty of con'cience
which every Ran has a right to enjoy. Oa this prin-
ciple the Church and State have in this country been
closely connected, and have thus mutually cherished and
strengthened each other. Under this system our coon-
tr y has flourished, and advanced to the highest pinnacle
of glory ; while other countries, which have despised the
advantages of, and denied the support of the State to tell.
gion,bave fallen a prey to the worst passions of mankind;
but we, knowing and feeling as we do, that our religion
is the purest on the face of this earth—that it comes as
near that holy system which our Moms MASTS!'
taught as, with due allowance for human imperfec.
tions, can possibly be, and that every doctrine it pro.
fesses can be deduced from, and proved by Scripture,
then we say it is our duty—aye, and an imperative
duty too—to support such a religion by all those means
which are justifiable, on grounds of reason and faith.
If this is the duty of every man, which we contend it
is, and that therefore every one who has a regard
for his religion is bound to resist, by every means
within his power, ma'am which he conceives art
likely to prove iojtirions, perhaps destructive, to it.
how much more so is it the duty of those men who
have dedicated their lives and talent to the service of
religion to strive against any measures, whatever they
may be, and by whomsoever they may be brought tor-
ward, which appear to them likely to be, in their
immediate or ultimate effects, subversive of the system
and establishment of that Church of which they are
the servants? How much more necessary is it for thwe
men to stand forward and stop the progress of thew•
suming disease, than to view its ravages with inditer
ence, and by their own carelessness imbibe the infecti.o
themselves? If they did so, would not theyiw assailed
as drones io the hive, or as traitors to the master they
served? Why then, we ask, because the appointed
Miaisteri of oar religion have, with a praisesivrotthy
zeal, bestirred themselves to stop the progress of the
destroyer, are they abused as meddling with what
does act belong to them, or as exhibiting a spirit
of intolerance and bigotry ? Wby should they be SP
tacked for endeavouring to maintain that which the?
have meta to amiatain ? It Is their duty to do at they
have dean; and they are entitled to the commentlatim
of all good men. whatever their religious tenets may Its-
But the Clergy are abused for their eciodoct on this on
cumin by the Liberals ; and it is not to be wondered at,
because the Liberals are opposed to every thing tail*
is right or good at morals and religion.

CONSTANTINOPLE, JANUARY 26.

While public attention was directed to the progress of the nego-
elation' for the termination of the affairs of Greece, and to the
consequence of the pacific overtures made by Russia to the Porte,
and no news teem the treatre of war was expected, a report was
soddenly spread on the 18th of an advantage (an inconsiderable

routed, and a number of them afterwards perished in a-,
Mosque, to which they retreated. The domestic in-
telligence from the capital is sot of much interest: all
remains tranquil, and no apprehension of a scarcity of
provisiiins existed.
We have by these Papers dm copy of a Declaration,
said to have been addressed by the Plenipotentiaries of
the Allied Powers to the Porte, relative to the occupa-
tion of Greece by the French troops, and of their deter-
mination of taking that country under their provisional
protection. The following are extracts:

one indeed) gained by the Turks near Kooslid)ik, at the foot of the
Balkan. The following are the particulars as far as they are yet
known On the 13th of January a division of Turkish troops,
under the command of Ibrahim Pads, attacked Keuslidjik, which
was occupied by the Russians, drove them from the intrenchments
which they had thrown up before the place, and obliged the gar-
:bon to retreat into the Morgue, where they defended themselves
viperously till the Turks set Are to the building, and the Russians
perished either by the sword or in the lames. An attack by the
Turks on Pravadi is also spoken of, but no particulars have trans.
pired. _ _

From the theatre of war in Asia there are no accounts of the
renewal of ►ostilities, but we bear of the march of great reinforce-
ments to the army aesem►lint at itritfelllll Waif' the command of

The Sultan has resolved to form a new body guard, to consist
chkSy of the sons of Officers of State, or of the Court of Ukmas
and other distinguished individuals, and to be commanded by
older Officers who have already served. Prince Abdurldeschid
is to bold a rank in this body guard.
Ilse Porte, it is said, has replied to the overtures of France and
England, respecting the pacification of Greece, that it is ready to
enter into fresh negotiations upon the bases laid down in the letter
of the Reis Effendi to the Ambassadors of the two Powers, in-
viting them to return to Constantinople,-which refer to the Proto-
col of 16th November, 1827; which negotiations might be carried
on, if not in Constantinople itself, in one of the Princes' islands, or
in some other place not too distant from the capital. Meantime
she Porte is said to have promised not to make any hostile attacks
during the operations in the Morea, or those islands which the
Powev had taken under their protection.
The caravan of pilgrims to Mecca set out on the 24th instant
with the usual solemnities from Scutari, on its way to Syria and
areabia.

The most profound tranquillity prevails in the capital, and the
Government feels itself so secure, that many of the Janissaries who
were still in confinement have been lately set at liberty. The ap-
prehensions, too, which the Russian blockade had at first excited
lest a scarcity of corn should ensue, have gradually vanished, since,
by the measures of the Government, there is a sufficiency of bread;
so that the Porte is reported to have sent orders to Smyrna, that
the ships laden with corn, which have arrived in that port, shall
not land their cargoes. We also learn From Smyrna, that Admiral
Dandelo has demanded and obtained the release of the Austrian
ship unjustly captured by the Greeks and carried into Rena.

A fortnight ago I sent you an extract from the minutes of the
conferences relative to the continuation of the negociations respect.
ing Greece, and send you to-day the document relative to the
delivery of a Declaration of the Allied Powers to the Porte. I
intend to send you in the sequel, for publication in your Journal,
tike other papers on this subject.
" The French Plenipotentiary has signified that the military ex-
podhion resolved upon by the Protocol oft 19tb July, 1925, has
efetted-the direct and immediate object, by putting an entire end to
hostilities in the Morea,and obtaining the complete evacuation of that
country by the Turco-Egyptian troops. He then submitted several
projects contained in a memorandum, the object of which is to secure
the countries where peace has been restored by the alliance against
any new incuion, at the moment when the French troops are about
to leave tbetn. The Plenipotentiaries of Great Beitain and Russia,
after having examined the projects proposed by the Plenipotentiary
of France, have, after due consideration, signified,in separate notes,
which of the projects they thought the best to be adopted. It was
then agreed between the three Plenipotentiaries that it shall be left
to the French Government to judge when, oat evacuating the Penin-
sula, it is not necessary to keep there for a time a certain number
of troops y that the Mores, the adjacent islands, and t►ose commonly
called the Cyclades, shall be placed under the provisional protection
of the three Comte, till the fate of these countries shall have been
regulated with the Porte, without, however, meaning in any man-
ner to prejudge the question of the frontiers to be finally assigned
to Greece, as this question is to be decided in the negotiations with
Turkey, which that Power will be immediately invited to renew.
It has also been agreed that the Allied Courts shall without delay
intimate to the (Amman Porte, by a declaration which his Excel-
lency the Ambassador of the Netherlands at Constantinople will be
requested to deliver to it, that they take the Mores, the adjacent
Islands, and the Cyclades, under their provisional protection.
