Eastern question. s.- -. .a..t +,

Tur EASTERN QUEsTIoN.-The only additional
fnct If fact It IS is contained in private dispatches
from Vienna, of date September 18th, stating that
members of the Conference had re- assembled al
Vienna and that the best understanding subSlSted
between them, and that fresh note had been pre-
pared by them, which is couched in the most con-
Ciliatory Language, and is calculated 10 DC acceP'
ed by the contendlng partles.s
Meantime, says London paper, 1t cannot be
concealed that the OF events is rapidly tend
ing to remove the case from the sphere oil negotla-
ton, and to plunge at least two States OF Europe
into all the caamities of war. The Turkish army
is daily increasing in numerical strength, and the
character of these troops is such as 10 Destroy Ill
great measure, the control which every Govern
ment should possess over its soldiers. The force
under Omar Pacha is constituted mainly OF wlld
and ferociouS tribes Of Asia, who have Swarmed
across the Straits in defence OF their religion ana
in hopes of Latte; and it is doubtful whether they
would endure what to them, would be The dlSaP-
pointmentS OF peace. Over these fierce ana par
barous auxarieS, the Sultan himself exercises but
little authority, and every despatch may bring us
intelligence that the arbitration of Europe has be-
come Superhous.
AUSTRIA AND TIE UNITED STATES-ViennG Tues
dau, Sent 14M.-Litte is said. and less written,
on the subject of the misunderstanding which has
recently arisen between Austria and the United
States, though it is evident that considerable I'M
easineSs is felt The Austrian General Consul at
Smyrna had recently received an order, but 1t is
generally felt that it would have been much better
If he had never meddled with Martin KoSzta-
People affect altogether TO dlScredlt the reports
rel& tive 10 the unusual movements OF American
vessels in the Mediterranean but the DEPART re oil
the Austrian Minister, CountApptny, from Turn,
is sure sign that this Government sees with DIS
pleasure the intimacy which has already been es-
labliSIed between her Italian neIghOor ana Inc
great Transatlantic Republic. The Language OF
this Government when discussing the Smyrna al
fair, has, with two exceptions, been eX-
tremcly moderate but 1t is so fully expected that
the Washington Cabinet Will consent TO Martin
KoSzta'S being delivered uP 10 the Austrian au-
thorteS at Smyrna, that it is advisable TO hint
even that such ma, not be the case. The "Neauc
RuScher Zeitung," which ridicules the idea oil an
Intervention the part of the United States IN the
Austro- Swss difference, is OF opinion that the re-
port was originally spread to excite the Radical
party in Switzerland to some hostile demonstration
againS Austria.
HIGHLY INTERESTING FROM THE JAPAN EXPEDE-
rIoN.-By the overland Indian Mail, received IN
England, we learn that the United States EXpedI-
ton sailed from Loohoo, on July Sd, for Japan, the
Commodore's fleet consisting of the steamers Sus-
quehanna and Princeton, and shipS plymouth ana
Saratoga, to be followed by the Powhattan and
Vandalia. The North China Herald, OF July 9Th
says:
Conformation has reached US privately that while
the United States fleet were in the neighborhood
of Napican, (Napakiang) the SuSquehanna and
Saratoga went on cruise eastward, ana toucheu
at several beautiful islands, where they distributed
live stock They also touched at an island named
Bonian. To their surprise they discovered few
European residents consisting of English, Scotch
Irish and Spanish, who had left whalerS and estab-
lshed themselves there.
Amongst them were about eleven women. The
Governor of the Island is a Scotchman. Heclaims
the island us his own, and has been settled there
about twenty years. He has a family OF several
children, one of whom was drowned lew days
before the Susquehanna touched there, IN endeav-
oring IL cross the bar.
The Commodore has made purchase of piece
of land, containing about ten acres for fifty dol
lars. 1t is in good situation, on one oil the best
sites Of the harbor, and is intended for Govern
ment coal depot. The island is mountainous, and
the harbor excellent. having from eighteen to
twenty fathomS of water at the anchorage. She'll
fish, such as Holsters and cray6sh abound.''
EGYPT.-AIexandria dates TO September 10th.
Matters were very quiet in Egypt Owing to the
critical position of affairs between Turkey and
Russia Abbas Pacha will not go TO the coast OF the
Red Sea, as he had intended. Abbas is in dan
gerous condition, from fstula; two physicians had
been sent from Italy.
The troops had been all withdrawn from Syria,
and recruits were still being levied 10 assist the
Sultan. Abbas expects to double the contingent
he has already sent to ConStantinople.
SEKvIA.-FTom Belgrade, Sept. 4th, it is an
nounced that Redschd Pacha insisted en- having
q decisive statement from the Servlan Charge
d'Affars as to the position Servia is prepared to
take in case of war. The Charge replied that the
Servians could not fight against the Russians, as
members Of the same religion, but that the Servian
Government would promise TO abstain from hostile
movements against the Ottoman Porte. As no
Commissioner will be sent into Servia, it is pre-
sumed that the explanation is accepted satislac
tory.
From Semlen, Sept. 9th, accounts state that the
Turks were actively aiming on the Servian frnn-
tier. number OF cavalry posts had been estab-
lshed on the Turkish bank of the nver, from Sill
estria TO Jestow, and gun boats were stationed
at various points. This confirms our surmse that
the Russians will attempt to cross the Servia.
U-The scenes which took place at the w oman's
Rights Convention, were among the most amusing
that we participated in. There wee no less than
twenty people talking at the same time, viz: elev-
en- bIoomers, one bouquet seller, three market
boys two anti-savery men, two t'come outers,'
