| PACIFICATION OF THE EAST.
Fourteen days has elapsed withuutour receiv-
ing any intelligence from Syria or Egypt, and
10 day, by the arrival OF the French steam
racket we have received advices to the 9th
instant, and we are happy to announce thai there
appears every prospect OF an ainicahle arrange
mcut taking place between the Sultan and Me
henet Ali, The latter having, in fact, acceded to
the ultimatum, by consenting to deliver up the
Turkish fleet, Gambia, Adana, and that part OF
SYRIA which it is determined he shall no lsnScr
hold; but he asks it as slboon from his beloved
mastero that he may etain the latter for hte.
| This is the substance of the important mtelll-
gence arrived. The communication was re-
eeived by the Sultan's Envoy, Rifat Bey, with
the highest satisfaction, and he had left for Con-
stantinople 1t is thus to be hoped that this
question, which threatened to involve all Europe
in war, will be brought to a pacific termination,
without resorting to eoercive measures for car
ryinr into effect the convention Of 18th July.

The packet ship New York, from Liverpool,
to New York, arrived on Monday, and brings
London dates to the 7th, and Liverpool to the
Sth ult The political horizon was still over
cast. No measures of Pacifcatien had been
adopted, and preparations for war were still IN
active progress A Cabinet Council was held
in Paris on the 4th of October, at which Louis
Philippe presided. The policy of war was dis
cussed with much warmth, and at its close the
question of war or peace was taken. The Coun-
Gil stood; for war, Jfve-against the war, .fo'".
Prince Louis Napoleon has been sentenced &c
perpetual Imprisonment.
The position of Louis Philippe appears to be
rather a difficult and critical one. M. Theirs
heads the war party, while the King is at
the head of the peace party. ministerial
crisis is thought to be inevitable. Either NJ.
Theirs and the war party will retire to make
room for pacific Ministry, or The peace party
will retire and give place to a cabinet disposed
for war. In either case the King will find him
self in asdilemma If Theirs is retained there
will be war; if rejected, there may be rev olu-
ton.

LONDON, Oct s.
| The important accounts from Egypt and
Syria continue to form the principal topic OF
comment in the French newspapers, and the
greatest anxiety is expressed for the arrival OF
more detailed intelligence tran that supplied
by the telegraph.
The excitement and angry feeling which the
first announcement of the destruction Of Bey-
rout caused, appears TO be in no degree, mod
Grated. Even those papers which had hereto.
| fore expressed cordial desire for the mainte
nance OF peace, represent the attack made upon
Beyrout, before Mehernet Ais propositions,
suggested by the French Government, had re-
celved due consideration, as an outrage upon
the honor of France. Such is the language of
newspaper, whose reported connection with
NJ. Theirs, gives additional weight and i'm
portance to its opinion. The Constitutional
observes, that sentiment peTyades the entire
population of Paris, thai the national honor has
been insulted, and that this feeling is strongly
entertained by the general staff of the National
Guard, and even by men known, not for theiI
violent, but moderate opinions.
LONDON, Oct. 7.-Our correspondent writes
| that NJ. Theirs has already proposed and insis-
ted. in the Council, on declaration of war, on
sending troops 10 the Rhine, and also to Alex
andria, in despite of the blockade. On these
questions, NJ. Theirs was in the minority. On
Monday or Tuesday similar proposals vii! no
doubt be made, accompanied by offers OF re-
the moment is critical.
We stated Yesterday that decisive war mea-
sures could not be taken by the French Cabi-
net, without an immediate split therein, and the
withdrawal of three of four Ministers. We
have but to perise the articles of the Consti-
tutioranel and the Journal de DebqtS of Sunday,
to be convinced OF the truth of this.
The 10 tnnal dcs De5ats, the organ of the
Court; of the Conservatives, and of the peace
party, though not of pair tout pTir, declares
that the events of Beyrout, however serious,
were still nothing more than the foreseen con-
sequences of the treaty, and that those who did
not quarrel with the treaty have no right to get
into furious passion and declare war on account
Of the consequences The organ of NJ. Theirs,
on the contrary, considers the events of Beyrou t
as quite altering the question-as being direct
blow TO the hopes which the French had enter
tanned of Cancellation. The bombardment is rep
resented as "substantial violence towards the
Pacha-moral violence towards France.n
The verdict in the case of Prince Lsuis Napo-
leon and his confederates, had not been delivered
up to five o'clock Monday afternoon, but his
sentence will be detention in a fortress, as we
stated in yesterdays impression.
A private letter, dated Monday evening, as
sures that nothing had been decided as to
the difference between Louis Philippe andThiers
1t was generally believed however, that the
latter would be compelled to retire from Office

PARIS. Oct 5.-We are upon the eve of
general war. All depends upon Louis Philippe
and M. Theirs. The latter has thrown himself
into the hands of the Gauche, or Left partv-
This is the Odilon Barrot, or war partv-that is
the extension of the French frontiers to the
Rhine.
A Cabinet Council was held Yesterday, which
was presided over by Louis Philippe, when a
most animated discussion ON the policy to be
pursued took place. NJ. Thicrs and his friends
were for an Immediate manifestation, and the
question stood thus:
