ARRIVAL OF THE BRITIsH QUEEN.
The British Queen arrived at New
York on Wednesday night at IL o'clock.
THE EASTERN QUESTION.
The treaty of London, as the treaty Of
the Four Powers is now called, was signed
In London on the 18th Of July.
The terms of this treaty are said to de-
mand Mehemet Ais evacuation OF the
whole Of Syria, except the Pachalic Of St.
Jean DC Acre, which he is allowed to main
tam on terms similar to those by which the
other Pachas Of the Porte exercise over
the several domnions under their charge
The island of Gambia is to be given up
Tho hereditary possessions Of Egypt is
guaranteed to him, subject to the regular
tribute to the Sultan. These terms it is
stated in the ''Moniteur,' under date of
Alexandria August Is. the Pacha refuses
entirely to submit to; and, says he will re-
pei force by force, but commit no agrees
sion.
The Egyptian government i. said to be
exceedingly busy in its preparations for
war. Religious feelings had been appealed
to, to give the people an interest in the
question, and the eniissares Of the Bey
were assuring the people that the Chris
tians were on the point of invading Egypt
and upsetting the Mahomedan relig ION.
In England preparations were going for
ward, and orders and removals of marine
artillery and other force have taken place,
Mlth 2 destipatiop to the Mediterranean,
These movements are made. il is true, on
"A small scale, but are sufficient to show
how the wind blows says the London
Times. They may. however, have been
only to give an imposing character, IN con-
cert with the other powers, to the manner
in which the official notice Of the treaty
should be communicated to Mehemet Ali.
In France preparations are going on upon
a much larger scale, and the Mediterran-
can forts and ports OF the kingdom were
busy with the clink Of africans and the ar
rival OF recruits. 1t is a curious coinci-
dence enough that both England and
France have foreign war on their hands
which may serve as cover for all reasona-
BILE preparation-England with China, aud
France with the Arabs,-s that neither
would have any position to recede from,
even though large preparations should be
made by thcm.
In Russia it would appear that warlike
movements are going on. The province Of
Poland was alive with troops destined TO
moye.it is said upon Syria, and act in con-
.oert with the naval force.

It is generally believed that the principal act
ors in this atrocious business were instigated to
their diabolical work By some who apparently
had no share in these nefarious transactions. he
his as it may, we sincerely hope that all con-
cerned will receive the reward due to their vii
lainy. The severest punishment which the law
can infiict shsuld be visited without delay upon
the heads Of all concerned. Our magistrates
owe it to the citizens of Lancaster, and owe II
to themselves, to bring the offenders to justice
Should these glarir Q violations of law, these
atrocious crimes, be permitted to pass unPln-
ished, deep and lasting disgrace Will forever DC
fastened upon u.s. Something must be done 10
secure tn all the rights guaranteed to every man
By the Constitution and laws.
Although here are two accounts, there is out
one side TO the story. And what better could De
expected from this tone of the leading prints OF
the party? Evea those who once denounced the
Loco Focos as the offscourings Of the earth, are
now encouraging them to deeds OF stu deeper
enormity. Read the following:
From the Globe ofthe 30h October.
ssWiu the people submit TO such an election:
Suppose Il shonld b. proved that enough of the
electoral votes were controlled by fraud to de-
feat the election? WILL THE PEOPLE SUBMIT,
or will they assemble in their respective States
and declare the election fraudulent AID VOlD!'
From the albany Argus.
"oRDER, PEACE, TRANQUILITY, are
BANISHED, and those who cheerinlly sub
NIT TO the will of MAJORITY, constitution
ally expressed, will RISE, in their WRATH,
if the spirit of the revolution is not extinct, TO
RESIST, to OVERCOME, and to PROS
TRATE, the factions and fraudulent rule OF q
conceded MINORITY!''
From the Ohio Statesman ofthe 30h Oct.
"Uur boosted freedom is a burlesque, and
the SOONER THE PEOPLE ARE FOUND
| WITH ARMS IN THEIR HANDS A
| GAINST THE PERJURED USURPERS,
THE BETTER"
Will not the sober-ninded of the party pause
and reflect? Will they not look, and see to
what their leaders are goading them on! They
were the first to raise the cry of fraud, In order
to cover their own villainy. And now, when
they find that confding and long abused
people have cast them off for their misieeds,
they endeavor to persuade their deluded follow
ers that their defeat has been accomplished by
fraud, and urge them on to open rebellion. In
all this there is no fansticism-nothing tr1cendi-
arg, Yet with what affectation OF holy horror
do these same papers deprecate the freedom OF
speech, of the press, and the ballot box, when
used to expose their iniquity and to take from
them the power they have so long abused.
