WAsH1NGTos, July 18th, 1853
NM Dear SIR The President will leave us TO-

HE period in his history and of the times.
His transit and visit to the Crystal Palace, and
the scenes in which he will be a. prominent actor,
will be eminently calculated to elicit his true and
undisgused character 1t is the very field for trans
parency. .
General Pierce is ardent in his temperament
acnte in bis sensbities and impulsive in his feel
NOS But discipline has made them subordinate to
prudence They all sprang from noble aspirations
enlarged generosity, active philanthropy and exat
ed honor. He loves his country as patriot snoulo
and he loves his fellow man with tolerant ano
generous brotherhood. He has no dark corners IN
his soul to hide away resentments and nurse re
yenge-he has no conceaments that would dlshonol
the purest magnanmity, and he has no disguise
that would mock praseworthy grattude-the pos
session of exalted station gives HIM no prlde u
hamper and no exclusiveness to offend. He bows
with humility to this attestation Of popular conf
dence and favor. forgetting that though he II
Chief Magistrate, he has been taken from the ranks
and will return to the ranks of the sovereign
people.
Bring him within the reach of the influences tina
cluster around his heart and guide his conduct ant
General Pierce will exhibit those clements that mos
commend, dignity and honor the character of man
He will make these impressions upon the thou
sands that will hear his ardent and graceful elocu
ton and more than this, with those who may com
within the range of social intercourse.
This will be an occasion where party feeln!
should have no place and no remembrance. Bette
impulses should hallow the day when the glory Q
common country should be felt by all ; and com
mon destiny, be shared by al-when a generou
brotherhood should be treasured up and taken ava
by each heart as the most pleasing recollection G
the rivalry and comfy of nations, and the best bon
of the peace and rerpetuity of the Union:
, Most truly, your friend, &c.

Additional Foreign News by the Europa.

There are some additional details of the news by
the Europa, but all in relation TO the European diff
culties is still conjecture. 1t is certain that the Rus
sian forces have entered the prncipates Whether
such action will be regarded a belli by the
Porte depends upon the view taken OF it by England
and France. If not regarded by these powers, ne
gociatons may again be resumed. The precise posi-
ton and political character Of these municipalities,
which quasi independent in their local government
but tributary to Turkey, and under sort of Russian
protectoate, is necessary to full understanding of
the subject This we shall endeavor to explain to-
morrow, from consideration of ali the lights before
us.
1t is misfortune, that in the fondness for excite.
ment almost everything is exaggerated, and is
tremely probable that the demands of Russia upon
Turkey have been in this case. However, all is
bound to come out. The Turks said to be eager
for war, and their drngs and preparations inces
