The same letter states that the slow progress

originally taken by the Courl Of Russia of the
stat OF things in Turkey IL was imagined that
the mere fact Of sc, 900 Russian troops crossing
the Danube would have had the inslaneous e'-
feet of reducing the Sultan TO any terms OF ae-
commodatiop; motives of economy also enter
ed into the calculations Of The AUtocrat, ana al
thought his success has hitherto been great,
he has found that the greatest obstacles are YET
TO come, and that his means were MOI commen'

II is strange, however, that the Constantine
pie letters say nothing Of the military opera
tons 10 Asia Minor. All The recruits called 10
