easy to be foreseen from the critical ST.
tuation OF the Porte, and as the European
cabine, could more easily believe than
the Porte in its pride--the agerandize-
ment of Russia on the side oil Turkey,
were it only as an indemnify for the ex-
penses OF the war, could with difficulty
be avoided. These anxieties are now
dissipaled; the united exerlions of the
cabinets have brought back the differ
ences to the point at which they were
when M. de Strogonof set out from Bu-
|jukdere."
1--WE have succeeded so far as to put
the point in dispute in its original state,
Russia having consented to open anew
direct negotiations with the Porte. 1t
will be now left to the latter 10 arrange
the matter with the former. The appre-
hension that the balance and peace OF
Europe might be disturbed, being re-
| moved, we are now also allowed to take
to heart the affairs OF Greece. without
any Interested motives. Blu, a strict
neutrality in this quarrel is all that the
Courts Intend. This system will, it is
said, be confirmed in the Congress which
| is to meet in the autumn"
The foregoing article appears 10 be
the true history of. the case.

THE HERCuLANEUM MANUSCRIPTS.
In the North American Review ofone
of the last volumes published by the
Academicians of portici, are some facts
and remarks respecting Hercutaneun'
which we propose 10 embody. Ailer
regrctting the disappointment which the
literary world has experienced, from the
works YET published, the Reviewers say
g. 7 ct there remains the certain iact, that
more than a thousand MSS. are in ex-
is,ence from an age far older than the
oldest, which have otherwise come down
10 US, and which however difficult to de-
cypher, are still proved by experience to
be legible." This is beaming a delight
fui,hope on the world OF letters, and we
cannot but expect that SO able, attentive
and laborious man as Sir Humphrey
Davy, will give the world some OF those
MSS. It was the discovery OF library
OF MSS. among those ruins which was
heard with most interest by the literary
world.
Herculaneum was city on the l,a-
lian coast, of some note, which IN the
time Of Pliny. the elder, A. d. 70, was
buried beneath the eruption OF Noun,
Vesuvius. The city Of Pompeii, and
some smaller places, we're buried at the
same time. Herculaneum was covered
in the first place by showers of cinders
and hot ashes, upon which the burning
streams Of lava poured and filled the city
with mass, which, as it cooled, passed
into stone. That the inhabitants had
time to save themselves and their most
valued possessions, appears from the
circumstance that few skeletons, jewels,
or precious articles of any kind, have
been found. "At Stabiaee, three female
figures were discovered, one of which
was apparently servant, and was car
rying wooden caske,; the two other
figures had golden bracelets and ear
rings, which are now preserved in the
museum at Naples" AT Pompeii, ac-
cording TO Eustace, about sixty skeletons
have been found.
The reviewers give an interesting and
elaborate account OF the various means
devised to unrol and decypher the MSS,
They were found in cases the wood OF
which the cases were made WAS in a
state Of coal, and dropped 10 pieceswhen
it was touched. The cases were filled
with black rolls, which were at first
thought to be bits of wood of no value,
and many Of them we're THROWN away or
trodden under foot as such. The regu-
la.'ity however, Of their position awaken
ed the suspicion Of what they were, and
they were carefully collected to the
number of two thousand, and deposited
in the museum Of Portici. These ma
nuscrip,s were on papyrus, mostly OF
uniform dimensions, viz. span long and
three or four fingers thick; some were
bu, bali a span long. So thin was the
paper originally, and so frail was it made
by the operation of heat and time, that a
breath affects it. The blacker the rolls
are, and the more perfectly charred, the
more easy are they to be unrolied and
decyphered.
