Of ahirs he did not assume unlimited power. He gave

We find IL following paragraph in the Morning Ad-
vertiser ofSesterday =

Gort intel entertaining the noble earl at public din

suited tghis arrangements.
The Pench Government seems to be resolved to give
free trfe in food fair trial In July last the dieren-
tal dues the import of foreign were, by impe-
rsl dcrees, practically suspended for period OF SIX
months and the time during which foreign grain may be
impored into France at little than nominal duty
has, within the last few days, been extended to the end
of JUL 1854.
1t iagain stated that corps of IS 600 men is being
organized in the towns of the south of France to be

Rome, should such course seem necessary.
The ysnna correspondent of the Brussels Independ-
ence says that the Austrian Government has negotiated

is clause the contract declaring the transaction
apener in te event of
A disqualification respecting the military power
of Russi; makes the force which the Gar could
employ j European war, without the reserve,
the local sarrisons, or the army in the Caucasus
being in my way reduced, to consist of 36o batta
lions of ifantry 46S squadrons of cavalry and 996
guns; or,in other words in the eventuahty of a
Europeanyar Russia could operate with force of
500 900 len and 200 guns, without laying itself
open to Geat Britain, Sweden, or to the Caucasus.
In case of great wor Russia could operate, by
means of Ter first second, and third reserves, and
the Cossa8 and Tartar forces, with ONE MILLION
of combatats and with 1900 guns. This is the
estimate d Prussian officer of great experience on
the point question No doubt this is an extreme
calculation but, pare it down as much as you will,
can it be imagined for moment that Turkey unaided
can stand up successfully against it England and
France would doubt be masters at sea, but what aid
could even hose countries extend to Turkey on land
without dangerously abstractng from their necessary
strength mother quarters? The Russians would also
take into all the wild and daring phrenzy of
religious enthusiasm; they would regard the war a
crusade of What they call christianity against barbarous
Islamism The proclamation of the Russiacommander-
chief strongly ncucates this feeling 1t concludes with
these words

Again. there is every to suppose, from the
ner in which diplomatic proceedings have marched side
by side with the continuous pouring in of troops into the

for himself The ready, not hasty, acceptance of
the Vienna noe before it had been agreed to by the
chief party concerned certainly the aggeved one
refined piece Of diplomacy since it enables the Emperor

the world at large, "You," the comforting parties
q dictated such terms you deemed it honorable and
just for Russia and Turkey to agree to. FASTENED at
to give in the part Of Russia my adhesion to
the arrangement which you proposed Turkey refuses
accede to those proposals without what deem i'm
possible notifications. Turkey has therefore only
herself to blame and the European Powers having,
through the Vienna conference pledged themselves to
arrangement which Russia has accepted and Tur-
key rejected, those Powers must feel that they
longer in honor lend their material support to the latter
We far from saying that this is exactly correct
statement Of the case but il is very adj cdptdndum one
and one which will be admitted by many. Nor do we
deprecate the danger Of so far to think that
peace must be maintained at any sacrifice Peace must
be purchased at the price Of national honor but war
must be hazarded until every honorable means Of
avoiding it have been tried in vain We only wish to show
upon the maxim Of audi ardm parton, that much may
be said both Sides and that with Russia will not
be tring affair. As christian citizen of the world,
wish for peace lover Of the good old land Of
birth, we would not have England avoid at price
which would render peace not worth having We believe
that both England and France pledged in honor at
least TO defend Turkey from the attacks Of Russia and
therefore those two nations be prepared to the
consequences Of their engagements be those
