Adviess from Constsntinople are to the 18th ult.
A letter q that date says:-
II is with feeling of shame and Dissatisfaction
that write this lstter-the English policy has been
defeated again by M. Titon. The question Of the
renee Of the Grand Vixier, Sir Stratford Canning,
and Gen. Aupick and they advised the Sultan unani-
mousiy to set the Hungarian refugees at liberty as
the last term Of their detention has elapsed on the
anniversary Of their arrival at Kutaya But the am
bassadors Of Russia and Austria entered protesta-
tion against this decision, pleading supposed So
cret understanding between kossuth, the German
revolutionists and the Italian patriots. visit OF
the Prince Frederick Of Schleswig. Holstein paid to
Kossuth, and the presence Of Nj. Revis, an Italian
LIBERAL at kutaya, are the facts to which the am
bassadors aude in order to give weight to their IN
situations. Now, the Prince of Schleswig- 1olsein
is an accomplished and amiable man, who has no
connection with the German democrats, but he is
the man whose birthright TO the duchics asput
aside by the famous convention OF July last, when
the representatives of Russia and England de-
clared in London tina. the integrity of the Danish
realm prevails against all the treaties, and had
virtually deprived the prince, who has no rights
to the duchies. The sultan, yielding to the
views Of M Titof, rejected the propositions Of Sir
Stratford, and kossuth remains therefore in prison
for couple Of months more, as they say; but it is
same language, that the detention Of Kossth was to
last couple Of monthsnot longer; and this means,
in the diplomatic language, till May, 1892 if poison
will not despatch him earlier, because Austria fears
too much his presence in Europe at the moment when
the crisis in France will probably arrive. Though the
Turkish government viii assign another and a
healthier fortress thar kutaya to the detained patr
ots and though she trea them with every respect
yet every body knows it here that English influence
Is checked entirely by Russia, and hat. therefore,
the Russians will always find some pretext for the
extension Of the time Of Kossuth's imprison-
ment Had Sir Stratford in time protested against
the principle Of detention all this could not have
happened; but when in October, 49, he expressed
his appreciation of this principle, he solcmniy re-
minded the Sultan Of his duty OF good neghborhood
70 Austria which demands that the refugees should
be shat out from the Intercourse Of the civilized
world though there Is no treaty in existence which
enforces such obligation, and be recommended only
that kossuth should be treated according to bis 20
stion At this time Sir Stratford was backed by the
English squadron Of Sir William Parker, and yet he
did not protest against the detention; he approved
only the resolution taken previously by the sultan,
before he was sure OF the support OF not to
deliver up the HunGara ns-Sir Strattord did no
thing more for them. The Turks arc aware of this
dealing, and when explained yesterday TO a high
functionary heze that i is shame for the Porte to
be the gaoler to Austria, the Turk replied, And
what have You English done for the llungarians
You have made great speeches in Parliament and in
meetings, to the great gratiic alton and amusement
Of the orators, and Of the assembled cTowd-but we
the clapping of the mill, but no ground in
the mill we saw no -four coming out your pretend
ed sympathy for Hungary is sham. The Sultan
did more he gave not way to the threats OF Russia,
and at the risk Of war, he did not comply with the
peremptcry demand for the extradtion Of hossuth,
though he was not Of the English support in
deed, your fcet did good for the Jew a,iice, not
a., aSyes o
and your ambassador, in sending kossuth to ku-
taya he treated him literally, whilst your govern
ment never sent piastre for the Hungarian re-
fugees who fed 10 England, and all the subssrip-
tions OF your great men for those unhappy fellows
did not amount to the sum granted by the Slla
TO kossuth alone You became parties to the tram
factions which finished with the d,tcntion ofKos-
suth; you see the Hungarians starve in England,
whilst We trea: them literally and now you re-
proach for having acted according to your advice
and having done more than you did. The Franks
are really strange people: they make great
noise, and then they pretend they have done great
deal, and think that they are entitled to make re-
proaches to those who did more but spoke less."
| must confess | blushed little, for saw that,
after all, my Turk was not wrong.
More gratifying than the unhappy result. Of Sir
Stratforis last is the ac that those
Of the Hungarians who turned Mussulmcn. and who
were till lately detained in Alep, will now be en-
ploycd in active service Knrshid, too, Guyon,) who
remained Christian, receives the Nishan Of Fcrils

sent to the Arabian army, where he might, perhaps.
soon get the opportunity Of distinguishing himself
anew, LOT the dincrences WIN Egypt are not YET
settled The Sultan enforces the Tansimat, or, as
you call il, the Hattisherif of Gulhane; he insists
upon il that the time of military service should be
Gxed in Egypt as well as in Turkey, that sewage
should be abolished, ard that the taxes should bs
levied In more proper and lees oppressive way
than before. IL Abbas Pasha does not comply
with this percmptory demand, the armies of Syria
and Arabia will enforce the will Of the Sultan, and
Abbas Pasha is likely to be replaced by said Pa
sha, the youngest son ofthe late Mehemet Ali. As

tircly suppressed; the Sultan gave the order that
the chicts Of the ebellion should be punished not
by the haltar OF by powder and lead, the Iunga-
rian generals were, but by temporary exile in
Trpolis, where the Porte grants to them allow
ance, according 20 their former rank. 1t is great
example Of humanity which the Sultan gives to the
west but the civilized world i not accustomed 10
accept Lessons from those whom they call barbs-
rams.
Reports from Seryia say, that Ali Fodich, one o.
the bosnian leaders, was amply provided with Mo-
ncy, and that he had received il from Croatia.
