This is one Of the lucky hits made by the Russian
Cabinet in the course OF this affair Though Russian
armies long since occupied Turkish provinces yet the
responsibility OF actually making war is thrown upon
the Porte And though England and France did their
best to get the Sultan into this position, they are now
not only alienated from him. but there is talk in
their journals of joining to compel him to accept the
very terms they zealousy encouraged him to
resist To say all in a word. and without any exsgger
alton these powers have practically gone over to the
side of the Gar and apparently ready to stand by
and see the perennial dream of Russian ambition be-
come a reality. Ills seems almost impossible, but
such is tie fact indicated by the governmental acts
and the public newspapers of the two countries and
We say again ii is a sadly instructive fact
Tie efforts of the medating Governments TO preserve
peace have proceeded from their natural desire to main
tain the present distribution of territory and power in
Europe, and from the fear that revolutionary disturb
apces would follow declaration of war. In the first
place, for Russia to annex Turkey would not only give
her vast pTep0nderance in Europe, but would endan-
ger the very existence of Austria and cut of the only
Oriental market TO which German manufacturers have
access at the same time that il would deprive England
Of large and profitable trade and interpose new me-
mace against the security of her Indian possessions In
the second place great would revive the hopes and
concentrate the energies of the party represented by
kossutb and Mazzn, while by preventing foreign aid
to the nonarchs and finging the public mind every
where into state Of anxiety and fermentation, 1t would
invite and favor outbreak Of the powerful conspra
cy whose threads in the hands OF these men But
these very reasons which induced opposition to the
Gar when lie was the party menacng war, must make
the sane Governments equally unfriendly to the Sui
tan should he begin hostilties; and thus very
likely TO see them as in 1525, looking neutras
while an nsdious and fatal blow is struck at the out
works of their own independence and prosperity.
More than this cannot be imagined it is impossible
that any of them should really aid the Russians in such
quarrel
The notion on which the gentlemen, who deal in
stocks bonds and other commodities of that variable
nature are disposed to retreat in this crisis is delusve
After having comforted their souls with the
that all was settled they now adopt the faith that the
war cannot become general one, but must be con-
fined 10 Russia and Turkey alone That cannot be. IL
will not do TO overlook the potency and vivacy Of the
revolutionary elements to which we have alluded; but
even leaving these out of the account and supposng
that France, Austria and Germany can succeed in
maintaining internal tranquility while such war is
going on they cannot with cool Indifference behold
the complete conquest of Turkey At first the natural
tiuidity and short-sghtedness of the financial AMI
trading influence may produce policy of stuPor, on
the part of the Governments but it viii be OF brief
duration Those very classes having gone through the
osses attending the beginning of hosttes, will pres
emily understand that even TOR them there is safety
Iut in active resistance and will join with all others
for defense of national independence and common
commercial advantages. Turkey may begin the war;
but Austria, Germany France and England must take
tLer parts in the drama aud play them to the end

Of disturbance has made its appearance on the CONT
nent of Europe. filing every western cabinet with
Anxiety end apprehensons IL is certain that there is
