ness and decision, and having come to deter.
mnatIon, 1t is not to be expected that he will
recede from it The Asiatic hordes are already
pouring forth their forces, and the din of war
resounds in every part of the empire. The for
tresses are strengthening, and provisions are
seized and secured for public use, wherever they
can be found The conflict, whenever it NAV
come, will be sanguinary and desperate
Of the obstinate desperation with which the
Turks contend, the battle of Navarno, the
ooodlest on the records Of naval warfare bears
fearful witness. When to their natural obstina-
cy, is added the excitement of religious enthusi-
asm, 1t will be no easy matter, even with the
vastly superior means possessed by the Allies
TO make them yield Unless their territory is
conquered, they will make no concessions, and
if it is subjected, the conquerors can march to
victory, only over the dead bodies of its de-
tenders.
1t is, however, supposed by some, that the
Allies will commit no act of aggression on the
Turkish territory, and that they will be satisfied
with merely interposing themselves between
them and the Greeks, to prevent the subiuga-
ton Of the latter. But such state of things
cannot long exist. The attempts of the Turks
will lead to constant collisions, which must.
soon or late, terminate in war. When, too, the
final determination of the Sultan is known, the

times, is destined to undergo commissions, which
in their consequences, viii materially affect al
most every portion of the civilized world.
