Our RELATIONS WITH ENGLAND.-THE NEWS
FROM HoNDuRAs--Our special correspondent in
New Orleans sent despatch to US on Saturday
night containing news of considerable importance
from Honduras It stated that great excitement pre-
vailed in consequence of H. B. Ms steamer Devasta
ton having anchored OF Toupillo, and demanded the
surrender of the place. in the name of the Mosquito
King that the inhabitants were given two hours
time to decide, before the commencement of bonn
bardment that the inhabitants yielded to superior
forces, but solemnly protested against the outrage
that the Mosquito flag was hoisted, and the Hondu.
ras flag pulled down and that the steamer then
proceeded to Limas and cannonading was afterwards
heard in that quarter. It was presumed that con-
test going on between the steamer and the Hon
duras troops.
It will be recoected that the previously received
intelligence from Honduras informed US that that
State had taken possession of Limas had appointed
commandant, and that the State would at all haz-
ards and at every sacrifice continue to hold the terri
tory. The news now brought to US confirms this de-
termination Of Honduras.
There is but one course for government to pur-
sue in this matter It will lead to immediate
respondence with the British minister and we shall
have an opportunity Of judging Of the vigor Of the
new administration in our foreign relations we shall
see what Mr.. Secretary Marcy will do.

Tn the intelligence which we have received
from Europe by the arrival Of the steamship
! Africa Yesterday afternoon, the feature Of most
striking Importance is the ominous position of
affairs in Turkey, and the imminency of the
peril in which the Ottoman Empire is involved,
through the hostile movements OF Austria and
Russia.
Our readers will recollect that we published
IN the HERALD of Tuesday last. piece OF
very important information procured for US
exclusively, and forwarded, before the facts
related had transpired in any of the London
journals. We we're thus appraised that the Aus
trian plenipotentiary Count Leiningen, had ar
rived at Constantinople. and had submitted to
the Porte the demand of his government, which
comprises the virtual Abandonment by Turkey
of the right Of sovereignty over the provinces
bordering on Austria, and the recognition Of the
independence ofMontenegro and that the terms
proposed were Indignantly rejected by the Grand
Vizier of the Sultan.
This information has been confirmed in all its
parts with this further suggestive fact, that not
only had the Austrian pleaipotentary with
drawn from Constantinople, on receiving the re-
ply of the Turkish government. but that the
whole Austrian legation had struck their flag
and retired also. This, in diplomatic usage
amounts to an actual rupture of amicable rela-
tons and is almost tantamount to declara-
ton of hostilities and it would not, therefore,
be matter of surprise to learn, by the next mail,
that the Austrian and Russian armies had in
vaded Turkey, and were on their road to Con-
stantinople.
But there is another most important and sig
nifcant fact involved in this affair 1t is said
that the Porte did not return his naughty res
ponse to the humiliatng terms proposed to him
until after he had consulted with the French
and English ambassadors. Assured Of the
united support of these powerful nations,
| against the hostile designs of Russia and
| Austria, the Turkish government might
well feel secure and bid defiance to the two i'm.
perial conspirators. 1t was part of their policy
at first, to endeavor to stir up religious ami,
mostly against the Turks, by representing the
| Montenegrines as sufferers on account of their
| faith; but we see in the attitude assumed by
France and England that in that attempt they
had failed. They are now, however. compelled
to throw off the mask and appear in their true
character, as the open, avowed and INSCRIPTIONS
enemies of Turkey, and it remains to be seen
whether, their schemes having been frustrated in
the Montenegrine affair. they will now boldly de-
clare war against the Porte while under the
protection Of England and France. If so, then
we may look out for general European wal
between the two great principles of despotisnl
and constitutional government

about the rombs, and are looked upon in the
light Of legitimate business. Such infamous
practices should not be tolerated, winked at. or
facilitated. as they now are, by the ofnsials, and
could be very easily and simply put an end to
by the passage Of an ordinance depriving these
practitioners Of the facilities thay now enjoy,
and by the appointment of an efficient police
man to keep watch over their doings Gentle
men reformers in your mission of benefcence,
pray do not neglect or pass over the Tombs.
