LATEST FROM EUROPE.

The English papers contain many specuatOns and
reports concerning the pending decision of the EN-
peror OF Russia in regard to the appeal made to him
respecting the extraditioa Of the Hungarian refu-
gees. Nothing definite, however, can be arrived at
concerning the issue, until the resolution of the EN-
peror and his Imperial Council shall be made known
The Emrerors reply was expected to reach the
laskish Capital about the 10th or 18th of Gcsober
ApprehcndiTs that the decision of the Gar might
DO a declaration of war, the Porte was exceedingly
anxious to hear the effect produced upon the cabi-
he's oil London and Paris. A large fleet of war
steamers are collecting in the waters of the Bospho-
rus anu the tfarbor of the Golden Horn. Between
The entrace of the Black Sea and the Propontis in
the Sea OF Marmora, twelve ships of the line are
'atanchor, fully equipped, and plentfuly provision

The most unwelcome feature in the news from
Turkey is that those Pachacs in Europe, which
are partly Greek and partly Turkish are in state

between Russia and Turkey
Under the influence of Russian emssaries mem

"A Paris correspondent of the London Times says
that note has been addressed by the English Gov
eminent TO its ambassador at ST. Petersburg on the
SUBJECT OF Turkish affairs couched in firm and mod
crate terms and contains nothing calculated to wound
the susceptibties of Nicholas, but announces its
determination to support the Porte agant airy ext
'gencies that would compromise the dignity of an
independent sovereignty Lord Palmerston like
wise sent the proper instructions to Sir Sratford
canning and placed the Mediterranean fleet at his
disposal.
France has inflated England in this respect, and
a perfect unanimlty prevails between the two pow
.ers
FRANCE.-The Moniteur announces the appoint
dnent of Lucian Mnrat as Minister to Turin and
M Bos LIE Compt, now Minister at Turin, as Min
lister Penipotentiary to Washington. But the fact
was stated, of which there is no doubt that the Co
Vernment was totally ignorant of what passed in A.
Inerlca when the new minister was named. The
French Government repudiates the course pursued
ny NJ Poussn towards the Cabinet at Washington
but claims indemnity in the case of the Euginie.
II is reported that the Pope has become alarmed
Az the numerous aSsaSslnatOnS in Rome, and be-
eves that there is an extensive plot for his own as
sasslnatlon should he return. He expressed wish
therefore, TO remain at Naples during the winter
The announcement at Rome that The public and
private pecunary engagements of the republican
government would be respected, has gained some
popularity for the Pope.
Private letters from Geneva Of the 4th, men
lion that Garbaldl, arriving at the Island of Ma
dalena, demanded passports for England, with the
attention of proceeding thence TO the United States
where he intended 10 settle. Since then, however,
ne has received proposals from the Montevidean
Envoy, who offered him command of the forces of
that Republic, which office, it is believed he will
accept.
SARDINIA.-Reports concur in saying that a most
formidable conspiracy had been discovered at Pied
mont, which to have broken out at Genoa on
the occasion OF the landing of the body of Charles
Albert.
AUSTRIA AND HUNGARy.-The Hungarian refu-
gees, the leaders excepted have applied for leave to
return to the Austrian territory and their request
will be granted. The statement that Georgey had
been shot is contradic;ed.
The previous news relative to the surrender of
Comorn is fully confirmed. The patriots who held
possession of the fortress succeeded in making very
favorable terms with Austria. Several Hungarian
leaders, besides Kossuth's mother and Georgey's
vile, are Kept In close confinement by the Austrian
authorities.
PRUssIA-The 1Virtemburg Government has f.
nally intimaed TO the Prussian Ministry that 1t will
not join the Federal league proposed by Prussia,
Hanover and Saxony. Hanover has already an
nounced its intention to withdraw from this confed-
Grafton.
lRELAND.-ln Ireland faint, but Intellectual, eff
fort has been made to revive the political excite
ment. John O'Connell is at the head of it. Moth
ing serious, however, is apprehended.
"STATE's ."-Major Noah, whom no.
body, presume, will accuse of being Wing or
anything else, now, but a Locofoco, is nevertheless
one of those who talks right out upon the Barn
burning and Old Hunker coalition, and with such
apparent honesty of purpose, that we are tempted
to quote the truths he tells of ''he pariy'' in his
Times Of Sunday ~ Y. EGpress.
"Ihe nuptials between the hunkers ard barn
burners Of the city still in progress the cakes
and ale are nearly distributed, and Iamnany Hall
is the nightly Of all kinds of corrupt bargains
Two weeks ago we inquired of an active outsider,
who was the candidate likely TO obtain the nomina-
ton, for sherllf-who TO draw the high prize
Of $4,000 per annuml And he quantity answer

come TO this, that old Tammany, always the pro-
tector of the honest poor man, who always raised
humble nleri: from his owIiness and plead the case
of the poor republican instead Of the Iording poli-
clan, should take the men who could pay most for
the honors and offices of the people But so it is
Hatfield drew the prize. Willett, the under sher-
if, whom the whole BAR suppored-a practical man
and a popular man-has, we suppose to continue in
his humble position. John Orser, at one time the
highest candidate, himself popular man, is like
wise thrown aside. Why not sell the offices, as
Rome before Ter fall once sold the imperial crown
