C'onstantinople June l.--Since the fatal catas-
srophe which the Greeks suffered before Athens,
during the first days Of May, the English Amhassa-
dor, Mr.. Stafford Canning, who during the latter
period, has had nearly every day conferences with
The Russian Ambassaor--ha, renewed his turlner
attempts to re-csablish peace and has transmitted
with that design an energetic note to the RelsEf-
iendi, which can leave no doubt that the Russian
and Eng ish Cabinets have acted in accordance with
The means which are to be made use OF to attain
the emil proposed. 1t appears that the certainty
Of that harmonious corporation, joined to the re-
presentations of NJ. y. Ottcntcl, the Austrian
n'ernuncio, has made an Impression upon the
Divan. In fact it is confidently stated that the
HeiS Ehen,li has displayed much more concilla-
ing disposition than FORMERLY. circumstance
