IFrom the London Times, Sept l6
In the present imperfect state OF our information
respecting the intentions OF Russia, we are reduced
to coDectures in estimating the probable course OF
events, but we at no loss for materials in asOer
tanning the position OF affairs, or in defining the
prospective contingencies OF European policy.
Although, in fact, the conduct of the Porte has
impeded a settlement otherwise at hand, and has
thus endangered, as we think, unnecessarily, the
peace of Europe, nothing has vet occurred to
affect the substantial merits of the original case.
The only offence ever alleged to have been offered
by Turkey to Russia has, according to the ackncw
ledgmenfs of q Russian Minister, been salts
factorily atoEed fer. The Emperor subsc-
quently preferred certain demands touching the
condition OF Greek Christians in the Ottoman
dominions. If these demands included nothing
beyond the recognition OF existing treaties they
were obviously gratuitous not to mention that such
simple recognition would have been readily con-
Ceded. Ii they involved any additional exactons, it
was clearly competent to the Porte to withhold its
consent; nor could such right be denied to an
independent Power without absolute destruction to
all the privileges Of State sovereignty. Yet, in this
presumption is contained the whole case of Russia
and upon these and better grounds, has she vio-
marching bodies OF troops into territories not her
own, end retaining those territories by an armed
occupation.
On the other hand, the Turkish government,
has hitherto refrained from any declaration OF war
