The alliance between France and England.


The New York Herald of Tuesday says that il
learns from quarter in which it places utter re-
lance, that on the lIth day of November, in tho
city of London, most important treaty of alliance
was agreed to and signed by Count WaIewski on
the part of France, and Lord Clarendon on the
part of England, in reference to the Turkish ques-
ton.
From special information, upon which
we place entire reliance, we learn that on
the eleventh day ofNovember, in hecity OF
London, mos5important treaty of alliance
was agreed to and signed by Count Wal
ewski, on the part of France, and Lord
Clarendon, on the part of England, in ref
erence to the Turkish question. Thus our
views of yesterday, concerning this reported
arrangement, are most positively conhr-
med The treaty thus concluded between
the high contracting parties ofEngland and
France was despatched Immediately by
couriers to Berlin and Vienna, with an ia
timation that from the day of its arrival at
each OF these capitols, period of seven
DAYS would be allowed to the cabinets of
Prussia and of Austria, to determine upon
their assent or refusal to enter into the ar
rangement. If agreed to, well and good l.;
if rejected, it was to be understood that
France and England would take the settle
ment and the responsibilities ofthis Eastern
controversy into their own hands.
We further learn, that from the terms of
this treaty, Russia will be required forth
with to evacuate the Danubian Principali-
ties, or that in refusing, she hazards the
Joint declaration of war from England and
France. And as the shortest road to peace
when once this declaration is made, we may
safely assume that the active operations o.
the allies against Russia, will be of the most
effective and formidable description, by
land and by sea. We may count upon the
movement of twohundred thousand French
men, in the highest state of equi pmcnt and
discipline, across the Rhine and the Alps to
compel Austria and Prussia to show their
hands. We may also expect a simultane-
Gus movement of the French and English
fleets near Constantinople into the Black
Sea, and that the eXtirminatlon of the Rus
slams in those waters will speedily follow ;
while unless prevented by the freezing of
the Baltic, another squadron of the allies will
no doubt at the same time set sail for the
latitude of St. Petersburgh.
This positive and warke alliance be-
tween France and England is due, first to
unmistakcable wishes of the French army
the French people, and the natural inclina-
tons of the Napoleon dynasty, resting as it
does, upon the glories and the unayenged
disasters of the empire. Secondly, this al
lance against the timd and rifling expedi-
ents of Lord Aberdeen, is due to the force
of the public opinion OF England, which is
beginning to have voice even in the for
eign policy of the government upon ques-
tons Of such import as this Eastern strug-
gle. Thus programme of prospective
military operations is opened before us OF
the most startling ana imposing grandeur.
Once begun, upon the plan OF this treaty
of November, the war.will probably so ON
until Napoleon the Third, on the Rhine, the
Pc, the Danube. the Elbe, and the Nistu
la, shall avengs The trcacherics which pros
tratcd Napoleon the First is the begin
nng of a new order of things, and God
speed Tie right.
