LATEST FROM EUROPE.

French journals mainly occupied in discussing
the question Of the probability of war between
Russia and Turkey. The last accounts from Con-
stantinople state that the Emperor of Russia had
made formal demand for the surrender of Kossuth,
BEN, Dembinsk and the other Hungarian patriots
who have sought refuge within the dominions of the
Sultan The Turkish government, with a manli-
ness which cannot be too highly commended, re-
fuses to be bullied into compliance. The Russian
agent, finding his threatened tone unavaiing, took
am abrupt departure from Constantnople. The
Minister of the Gar, has closed all diplomatic in
tercourse with the Turkish government. England
and France, through their representatives, have
prevailed with the Sultan, and kept him firm in
this determination not TO surrender the refugees.
This new difficulty seems to be the all absorbing
topic, and the affairs at Rome, well all other
matters of minor Importance, appear 10 be lost sight
OF In the discussion or this question O.
Already in England and France, Cabinet councils
have been held to consider these grave crcumstan-
ces. Should Russia persist in demanding the sur
render of these devoted men, an European war is
thought TO be inevitable.
The Paris Journal Des Debats, of Thursday, says
We are glad to learn that France and England are
most cordially united in their determination sup
port their Ambassadors in the advice given by them
in regard to the eXtradiion Of the Hungarian refl-
gees.
FRANcE.--The suspension Of intercourse be-
tween France and the United States had created
great SENSATION In OUT having gain
sd ground that England offered her mediation, the
,uneasiness had in great measure subsidized.
nj. Marrast, or Nj. Theirs is expected to be sent
to Washington in place of Poussn
The attention of all Europe is directed to the
North. in order to learn the issue of Prince Radz-
val's return to the Gar, conveying the intelligence
of the refusal of Turkey to comply with his demand
20 surrender the Hungarian refugees.
The Sultan has postponed his contemplated vow
age to Smyrna and the Archipelago.
The army of Somnola is ordered to hold itself in
readiness.
There is no to doubt that the best under
standing prevails between the English and French
cabinets.
Ii is also stated that powerful English and French
fleets will be- ordered to the Mediterranean immedi
ately.
Austrian politics appear to be of subordinate in
ferest. 1t is reported that COmorn has surrendered
thereby preventing great eifuson of blood In Prus-
sa everything remains quiet
nj. de Iocquevie has demanded credit of one
hundred and forty thousand francs besides the sums
already voted for the expenses for the Roman inter-
vention.
Gen. Lamorciere's mission 10 Rome has proved
failure, and he is his return without having had
an opportunity of seeing The Pope.
1t is reported at Vienna that Georgoy had been
shot by Count Zrekey, whose brother was executed
by Georgey's order at Cressei.
RoMe-The manifesto of the Pope has appeared
1H an Official form ana mas been received with feel
ings of deep disappointment, if not resentment, in
all quarters. This feeling is especially participated
in by the French soldiers several of whom were ar
rested for tearing down, defacng copies of mani
festoes.
The attitude Of the French Military authorities
is, under the circumstances, quite EMBARRASSING
They receive orders from Paris but disapprove the
'defacto measures ordered by the Papal Government
The Cardinals dare not walk the streets of Rome
for fear of mourning the popular fury,
The Pope relying upon Austria or Spain, or both b,
and being promised funds by Russia, seems yet to
imagine that public opinion will come over TO his
side, and thus shuts his eyes to the worst obvious
consequences. Should the French withdraw from
the Papa States, there is strong reason to appehend
a fresh revolution.
ENGLAND.-In England the Cholera is rapidly
disappearing. The total number of deaths from that
disease in England since the 18th of June last is
computed at $4,000
