harbarous rulers, and that ia compliance
with the Wishes Of the sovprcigns cnnpo-
sins the Holy Alliance who are stated
to have induced Alexander 70 take this
course, not from fear of bciag defeated IN
battle, hut from an apprehension that the

Their.
After what has been known To all the
world respecting the views of Russia, MS To
Turkey after 80 favorable an opportunity
had offered for carrying these INTO COM
plete effect aud after such roworn,l armies
had been collected together, clearly demon
siratiye of the EmpeYor's Intentions, we
cannot give credit to the statements in the
English papers, without losing much of
ofr respect fora man who could So degrade
himself IN the estimation of every hunora-
bic mind As 10 the question of humanity,
We never thought that Acxandcr's policy
was Influenced by considerations of this
sort The atrocities committed on the
Greeks was n popular theme, which he
might turn TO account in his attempts TO
bring stigma ON the Turks, and thus favor
his Interior designs. But, farther than this,
we never considered his professions of COM
passion for the Greeks, and Indignation at
the barbarities which they suffered, rs any
thing more than unmeanlng words. Not
so however, did we view him rs a warrior
as claiming the character of bcipg a magna-
nimous, intelligent and ib,fal prince
as having at heart the emancipation
of the human race and as being the
patron aud promoter of all The arts aud
scicnces:--in all these respects, we were
taught To consider Alexander entitled t0
the need of praise, which he rccciv-
ed not only among his own suhjccts,
but throughout Europe, and even from
thousands IN the United States. Sat, il
what is now sail Of him be true, ia, hopes
which WE entertained of this man are fore
Yer blasted, and he becomes in our cstina-
ton comparatively insignificant and corcs
temptible. II the Turks, however, shall
finally yield 10 line solicitldr and rrIuon-

we have depicted. Even should peace be
made ON the terms supposed, we are per
saaded IT would amount 70 only an armed

The accounts from the country, rs may
be seen by our extracts, are still deplora-
bic. Several statements we have already
published, but we eannot make room for
hair of there. We have endeasalred To
do our part, by laying the melancholy con-
dilion of the country plainly aud fully
before the pahliS YET, We arc satisfied
very few OF our readers have an adc-
qua,r idea, of the extent and Formidable
nature of our disiress II il a fact too
well authenticated Ia admit of any doubt,
that scores, perhaps hundreds, have AREA
dy persisted OF wani--that q fever has set
IN. and that the hospitals are already crow.
died with itsvirtims. In one parish III Ciare,
fly persons, when the last accounts came
away, were i'll Of fever, and five hid died.
The greater part OF this parish tClonge-
ded) were totally destitute of provisions
The fever with Which they are attacked,
is only another word to describe people
dying of hunger. In the western part OF
Galway, men, women, and children are dy-
ing of starvation, and so dreadful is the
mortality, that every ono who can quit is
flying as from plague.
We have quoted n paragraph, in ano-
ther place, from a Galway paper, which
describes human being reducedto the very
verge of the grave, for want of food and de-
scribcs the dying and the dead in language
which we have not the heart To transerihc.
Sligo, as may be soon by our extracts, is
similarly circumstanced, and the fever has
already made frightful rayages in this coun-
ty In the county of Cork typhns fever
OF most maligngni kind has already APP
peared. In Mayo, the deaths from starya-
ton continue TO increase. In short, great
part of the west and south of ireland pre-
sent the shocking and appalling spectacle
Ola dense population in state OF famine
and upon the brink of pestlencc.
Considerations of this kind will aud must
force men to be serious and earnest. Ii is
not mere local distress which may be rehcv-
ed or mitigated by a local application. We
repeat il that a million of men, women and
children, are starving, are actually dying oil
hunger ). that already, aud in one of the
finest seasons ever remembered, malg
nant fever, with every appearance of the
worst symptoms ofpestilence, has set in.
Here follow numerous other reports oi
local meetings, all describing Tie distress as
hOrrfying.
