The Niagara arrived Ills morning
aboat one o'clock. with LirerDool dates
70 the 18th. She brings 7 DAYS later
news than that received by the Asia.
Her news both political and CONNER
cials in view OF the present unsettled
state Of affairs in the Eastern world, is
OF the most instensrly interesting cha
racter.
The Black Sea has been declared
free to all nerfrsI flags.
The Fnp~ruv Of Russia has autho-
rized ffer importations inta any port
Of Finland, Of all meterials designed TO
Be used Cor the eqnipping Of ships.
This privilege is 10 endure for five
years.
A Paris correspondent writes, that
in private circles IL cunsfantinapie,
letters concerning the Eastern qurs-
tion have been examined. in every con-
ceiyable particular. aud the crnclusion
unanimously arrived at. that there is
no escape from war.
Russian agents are most actively
engaged in stirring up Instructions in
Turkey
A large number Of English officers,
mostly belonging to the Indian service,
are moving towards Turkey in Camps.
A number are also ON their way TO
consfantinople.
The Globes Paris CORES ponden
says, Notwithstanding all we hear rela-
tive to the preparations for war, the
impression here is very general. that
peace will be preserved.
a great humber Of offers of aid to
the Turkish government, have been
made from Poles, Hungarians, &c.
This, however, appears almost mere.
.dible.
At Paris the police had made search
at the house Of one, Mr.. Xii, Hunga-
rian. for kossuih, but he was not
there.
Il is reported that Napoleon stated
on the l2th, unless Russia yielded all
that was asked war must be proceeded
with.
A letter from Turin saws the Ped
montese Government has been request
CO, not to admit VI. Foresti, a natura-
liked American, as Consul from the
United States. They aIlcge as rea-
son for making this request, that Fo-
resti is disciple Of Mazzi,i.
Ii had been decided that Corn should
be mported into the papal States duty
tree until February next.
SECOND DISPATCH.
The s.dtan had gisen notice that, il
Russia did not e,acute all the Turkish
Principaliiies within Is DAYS, after
being requested so to do. hostilities
would certainly be commenced. Fleets
had been invited to Constantinople.
The declaration, or notice abuve
mentioned, had been posted on all the
Mosques.

The resolutions adopted. thar IL az he

tanned that the people we're rerdy for
more stringent measures. IL would *
lsuiilclently early % adopt such 10 the
nteiing ia November. We do not,
thrreforrs believe that NJ have desiat-
ell from tlie plan Of the convention IN
the sctieh that pshase taken. and es-
pecizlly SINCE osr FIRST resolution APP
proves ofdixt plan and pledges US TO
use oar endeasurs - see u Carried out.
But We have other reasons Cor be-
lieying that NE are not acting contra
~ 10 the wish Of the majority 0f the
members Of that convention. Ii was
believed, not only by the opponents Of
the resolutions adopted. bat by some.
AZ least, Of the friends. that there we're
a majority in the convention who pre-
ferred the other resolutions and these
were adopted partly for the sake &C
harmony. and partly because il was be-
lieyed that at the eonyention in No,
yember stronger resolutions would be
adapted. Several who spoke against
these voted for them on those grounds,
and myself among the number.
Let Us now turn again 10 the COM
mittee. aud present one fact with re.
ference to them. stated that but a
very small minority approved Of the
other series of resolutions that was Of
iered, tearing that they would not suf-
fciently protect the signers Of the
pledge from party chitanery. The
resolutions adopted at these neighbor-
hood meetings are thought to ubyiafc
that objection and Of that committee
which 50 decidedly rejected the other
hutM ANt VIEWS Vi tfHNI
members, aud all Of them except one
the Junior Editor Of the Recorder
heartily approve Of these, and all of
these that have had opportunity, have
signed the pledge. II, therefore, ma.
jority OF the convention preferred re.
solutions which but small minority Of
the committee favored, are We presump.
tuous in saving that still larger ma
jority would favor resolutions having
precisely the same object, aud adopt.
ing precisely the same means, and vet
80 obsiating objections as TO obtain the
hearty appreciation of at least a majo>
rity Of that same committeef
One objection TO our course we hope
We haze removed. With your permis.
sion we will next week consider others.

PosITIoN AND PURPOSES OF THE FREE
DEMocRAcY.--Mr Editor The Free De.
mocraey hold to the Declaration of indie
pendence-because It declares that "all
men are created eqnal," They hold to the
observation-disclosures the Constitution was
formed to Secure the blessings of Liberty"
They hold to the Unon-because the Union
was formed by adopting the principles Of
the Declaration Of Independence and the
Constitution.
The aim and object Of the Free Democ-
racy is to create public sentiment, which
will preuent the extension of slavery into a
territory now free. They propose to effect
this object, LIST, by a candid discussion of
the slavery question; I'd, by spreading facts
which have bearing on this question, be-
fore the people; and Sd, by consisten! pc.
litical action.
The Free Democracy, moreover, MAIN
tain that they are a national, not section
al party-because freedom is national and
SLAVERY sectional-there being in the United
States at the present time twenty millions
OF freemen to three hundred thousand slave
ho!ders also from the fact that their party
is not confined within the limits of The free
States, but extends into the slave-holding
States--as the vote for Mr., Hale at the late
presidential election in several of them will
show.
This is Free Democracy in nut. shell---
how do the people like ti--Advocatc.
