lions accuse the ministry of each country, of having
laid the train of general confusion in Europe. The
terms of the .ation, they say, will be rejected
by Turkey If she any longer means to act the part
Of an independent nation. The delays she inlerpos-
es, are wisely intended to gain time for hostile pre-
paration and her populace are sufficiently exasper-
ated by late acts the part Of the allies, to second
and even urge forward the discomfort OF the Sultan
This consummatlon they add, is deyoutly wished by
Russia which has long cast impatient wishes towards
the province OF the Danube, and Constannople,l
and is hardly restrained by its engagements with It's
allies from preciptatins the contest. Hence the re-
ported departure of the Russian envoy from the
Turkish capital though strong representations were
made to him by the other ministers, to proong ms
stay. England Is party perforce 10 the Mediatlon'
and only because she is unwilling to let Russia pro-
ceed alone, according to the promptings OF her own
interests Nor is Turkey, they tell US, so unpre-
pared Tor the contest as we think her. Her reign
ing Sultan is man of vigor and en,erprise,-wit-
ness his late suppression of the Janssaries. and or
ganizatiou of has troops the European model; and
this improved discipline will not be without its ef-
feet on 4 people who we're never accused OF want
ing bravery as soldiers The blow once struck, the
interests Of the allies themselves and of other pow
ers they think diverse enough TO produce the conse
quences which have been pretty generally found TO
follow in Europe when the spark OF war was once
ed.--There will be quarrel about the punder,
and general war will be the argument of the COM
peors. Cobbett as usual has settled the whole mat
Ter most concusivcly to the disadvantage of the
ministry, and traced for the twentieth tine the ra
in of the country too clearly for mistake.
On the other hand, all this consecutive series of
obvious propositions, with the general conclusion
flowing from them, il treated by the ministerial
Journals as not even easonable. The Reis Effendi,
we are assured will not hazard his neck, by running
the risk of blockade of the Dardanelles, famine
in Constannople, congratulations and an insurre,-
ton He knows that he could not withstand the trl-
pie force arrayed against him for month, and that
resistance were especially mad at this uncure, with
raw evies, as yet imperfect in the new tactics, and
with formidable body Of discontented subjects
in the late suppressed Janissaries. As to the haugh
ty tone of the Sultan it has lately at Ackerman,
been found to be humble all of sudden, after equal
displays of obstnacy, that it is pretty manifest he
only means to swagger for while. and then yield
with the usual INCONSISTENCY and inconsistency of that
barbarous, ignorant and improvident court But
that even supposng him pertnaclous IN refusing the
mediation, where is the field of battle, or the pre-
tensions to be maintained which cause war (?
The armstice will exist in fact the Greeks and
Turks will be prevented from collision by the inter-
vention, of the Allies, which however extends to no
scheme OF conquest OF offensive operations for them
selves. That, at any rate, the Treaty OF Triple Al
iiance has provided for all uterior steps by the Al
lies in the event of declaration of war by Turkey
Their objects definite and enumerated, and their
spirit on this occasion, common one. The new Au.
tocrat Of Russia is moderate in his views and who'll
ly reefom the lust conquest and the views of the
Allies being thus wholly confined to the declared OBJ
iectss of their alliance, and their operations being
thus merely defensive and mediatorial, there is lit
tie opening for dissension among them, or for thu
spreading of war into Europe, designed only t.
keep in check horde of barbarians.
OF these opposite views, the latter certainly seem
Che most reasonable. SO far respect. the mpro
bahity of the Turks going to war. They have i'm
mediate disasters in the foreground of their contem
.plation, from the proximity of the Russian force
on the Pruth, the probability OF speedy blockad
of their capital by water, and, by all that we ca
learn, their own general want ofpreparation. Ho,
long the allies would be of one mind, when one
far 'uoged into war, is more doubtful question
depending much on the position in which Russ
should nd her armies as to that great emporium ar
