interview with the Refs EHendi the next day.
The Ambassadors also expected the answer
to note which they had transmitted TO the.
Diyan on the 9th. The tranquility Of Con-
stantinOple had not been interrupted"
ConstantinOple Nor. 9.-(By an extraordi-
nary conveyance. by way Of Bucharest.) The
deliberations of the Dvan are not yet tcrmi-
mated. The decision. however, is to be made
/ tomorrow, when the Haiti Scherif of the
! Sultan will appear. According to all that
we hear it. will contain a Declaration of
War.
The attempted intervention of the Austri
an Internuncio has proved fruitless, and all
communication is wholly broken off between
the Refs Effendi and the three Ambassadors
who are preparing for their departure.
A suppressed fermentation prevails among
I the Turks, and CONSERVATION among the Chris
| tians. The latter are looking with apprehen-
| ion for further orders FIR reprisals.
| We have heretofore announced, from the
LODdon papers of the 5th, positive infor
nation had been received the day before,
| that the Porte had refused all further negO-
! tiatiOn, or even intercourse, 18th the Ambas-
sailors of the Allies, and had also refused the
mediation Of AuStria.' Upon this item, the
| Courier of the 9TH comments as follows:
"As no date is assigned to this "pOsitive
information" we are somewhat at a loss how
to treat it. One thing, however, is certain,
that up to the present moment. no such ''pos-
| tive information as the Chronicle describes,
has reached our own Government.
but the Sultan has also I" refused the me-
diation of Austria" With respect to medi-
alton in the strict sense Of the word, it has
never been offered, because it would not be
received The three Allied Powers Us no sign
ed the Treaty Of London, never intended to
submit their demands TO the mediation of
any neutral State though, OfcOurse, they
were willing to accept such friendly co-ope-
ration as might promote the attainment of
| their common object"
The following is extracted from a letter
from a mercantile house in Triest, but no
date IS given in the paper before us -
"By the last news from Alexandria, it APP
pears the Pacha has now the Wfchc5its on
his hands. who made an attempt upon Mecca,
in Arabia, and succeeded in it, after putting
1900 Egyptians to the route. The Wecha-
bites are, we presume, tribe of Arabs, and,
of course. Mahometans. What EFFECT such
an event as the capture of the Prophets tomb
! will have upon the Turks at this moment, it is
not difficult to conjecture. In all probability
! it will be looked upon as an omen of the Di-
vine favor being withdrawn from them. The
! Wechabits are considered by the Turks as
Mahometan heretics. We cannot judge how
! far so many disappointments, sustained at
once by the Egyptian Government, win con-
tribute in favor or in rejudice Of the cultiva-
ton of cotton, depending there chiefly on
Government; but we think, for the present,
the low ebb of money in Egypt must be an
inducement to sell at cheap prices what the
last crop has produced"
Since the foregoing was prepared, we have
diligently examined the Morning Herald, New
Times, and several other journals to the 9TH
inclusive, and find nothing to change the o.
pinions indicated above. The following from
the leading article of the New Times, of
Dec. 7, perfectly accords with our own Opin-
Joni
7 The French papers of the 5th inst. reach
ed us by express. They inform US, that af-
! ter having learned the result of the battle of
Navarin, the Austrian Ministry addressed a
note to the Allied Powers, in which it is de-
clared, that whatever should happen to Con-
stantinople, Austria was determined not to
depart from her system of neutrality. This
very declaration shows that much good has

Those who have attended to the conduct of
Austria before the naval force Of the Turkish
empire was overthrOWn, and who are aware
that if obstinacy was carried to its extrem-
| est point, it was under the guidance of her
counsels, will see what mighty change was
at once operated in her opinions. All COM
plant and menace before, she suddenly be-
comes most friendly and compliant-nor does
she limit herself to abstinence from threaten
ed hostility. She endeavors to impress it on
the Porte, and to persuade the Power whom
she alone, perhaps, has led into war, to reject
the fatal influence of her former advice, and
! to submit to the chastispmert which it has
brought down upon it's victim. The Grand
Vizier is said, in this article, to have written
an autograph letter to Prince MetterDich,
requesting the mediation of Austria between
the Porte and the Allies. 1t would seem
from this fact, il it he true, that notwithstan-
ding the good and bold face which Turkey
originally put upon the matter, she is now
most DESTROYS Of coming to an accommodate
ton. Hopes of peace were, therefore. once
more entertained at Vienna, with more conf
dpnce than the occasion seemed to justify.

not experienced any cruel treatment.
