It is said that the Russians are encountering some un-
expected difficulties, in their march upon Adrianople,
and that Genernl MEBITSCII—met by proposals for
peace between Constantinople and Kirk-kilissa—has
fallen back upon the latter place, which he has made his
head-quarters during negociation. Wo. do not think it
will turn out to be the case.

It ie necessary to carry a little farther our strictares on
the language of the Times yesterday, with reference to
the Manifesto of the Marquis DE BAREACENA. No
person who reads the article attentively, can for a moment
mistake its drift : but there are too many sensible readers
who never stop to inquire whether any thing exists be-
yond the surface in a newspaper, for us to be willing to
leave our contemporary to the chances of such innocent
misconception. Every passage in that article conveys its
coup ; every line is pregnant with meaning. He will not
inquire—he says—whether materials could be found,
WITHOUT A SIGNAL OUTRAGE ON THE LAW OF NA-
TIONS, fiv maintaining a conflict against that perfidious
and odious Pr.:bee, even by a more prolonged adherence
on the part of Donna MARIA to the system of watching
over Portugal from England. Why will he " not in-
quire," but because the inquiry—if honestly conducted—
would lead to the discovery of ampler materials, than it
suits his purpose oven remotely to recognise ? But his
inuendo, when be talks of a signal outrage on the law of
nations, is so plain, that it supersedes a comment. There
is no maintaining a conflict against Don MIGUEL any
longer,without violating international law ; but Don MI-
GUEL has outraged all laws—as well domestic as interne-
tional--he is a rebel and an outlaw : never mind ; he must
be acknowledged by England!
Such is the interpretation, though in trLth it
requires none, of this argument of the Times ;
whose delight at the removal of the QUEEN pre-
cipitates him at once to the conclusion, that it must
sensibly impair her cause. On that conclusion we re-
marked yesterday, that if the Noble Earl were really so
well disposed as our contemporary represented him, he
would not suffer the sacred rights of thrones and consti-
tutions—both singularly blended in the person of Donna
Meat A—to be detrimented by her unavoidable
absence. On the contrary, a " friendly Government"—
such as that cf England professes to be towards the
exile of Lalehain—would feel itself placed under a
still more imperious necessity, not to sanction any course
of policy hostile to such righteous interests.
But it required a face of bronze, unblushingly to ad-
vance the following :—" It does not, indeed, appear to
us, that a case has been made out, to justify the Qt EEN's
departure." It is almost inconceivable, how men of the
most ordinary judgment could hope to pass off undetected
such a gross and gratuitous assertion ; when it is noto-
rious that the difficulty would be to establish a case that
would justify Don PEDRO in leaving his daughter any
longer to our insidious hospitality. Is it then to be
considered as nothing, that Ministers have esta-
blished a furtive communication between themselves,
and the Usurper whom they are hankering to ac-
knowledge ? Is it nothing that the capital of this great
and free country—whither that persecuted and rightful
Sovereign came appealing for protection, and reposing
upon the faith of treaties—should be made the theatre
of perfidious machinations and intrigue against her ? Is
it nothing that the commissioned emissary of MIGUEL
meets with reception and bearing from those very func-
tionaries, who have recognised the paramount Sovereignty
of Donna MARIA, and have not even—for very shame—
ventured to treat her in this country but with ostensible
Royal honours ? But it is well known that Ministers have
left no expedient unresorted to, to produce that very depar-
ture, which—according to our contemporary—they only
began to deprecate, when they knew that it was irrevo-
cably arranged. What better evidence can be adduced
in support of this, than their activity last year to promote
the object of Count LESZELTERN'S mission from Vienna,
which was " to reconcile conflicting interests "—what a
memorable expression it is —by the union of the Usurper
with his NIECE ? The Noble Earl and his colleagues have
considered this step as of momentous importance--

indeed, indispensable necessity—towards the consoli-
dation of the Portuguese Throne under an absolute order
of things. It is therefore that, by every conceivable
artifice and indirect connivance, they are still
driving at this unnatural marriage ; against which
the QUEEN is not less resolutely determined than
her Imperial Father, who—to prevent any disaster
from this complication of intrigues, by which his daugh-
ter was surrounded here—sent an order for her peremp-
tory recal. The Tinier, therefore, is right, when he says
that Don PEDRO and his Councillors must know their
own business better than he can explain it to them. To
be sure they must : but it is a scandalous falsehood, to as-
sert that England " gave Li; play to the friends of the
Constitution" in Portugal, at any time—or that she has
" turned her back upon the tyrant"—or that she holds
" no intercourse with him." Ask the Visconde d'AssEc A.

We have this day the Nuremberg Correspondent to
the 25th, and Frankfort Papers to the 26th ult. The
latter contain interesting extracts of letters on the subject
of Greece. There is one passage in these letters which
we do not believe ; and that is, that " the President is
worthy of general confidence and esteem," and that " all
those who know more of him perceive him to be a truly
virtuous man." We know tile very reverse of this to be
the fact ; and that he is not entitled to confidence. To
the President is to be ascribed much of the misrule and
distress that have shaken and torn unhappy Greece :
besides, he is a tool. There is another passage in this
letter which looks like truth : " Hitherto the English
have shewn themselves far from friendly in their relations
with the Greeks." There is, we think, little doubt about
that—The following are extracts:
