Such are the hcts upon which the Governments Of Eug.
land aud France, aud their representatives at the Porte,
three weeks ago We vcutured strongly to urge our own
9overnmcut 10 consider, aud TO determine, if necessary,
BY convention, The occasion aud extent OF tho interference
TO which u stands committed. and the mode In which that
interference Is to be conducted, should Il extend to opera.
tons OF war. We held some such measure to Indispensable
even then, and an eventual agreement of that nature might
rather have strengthened than impaired the negotiation
for peace. The events which since occurred render such
n dehnitu agreement still more essential. Are We, or are
Nc not, bound to undertake the defence Of the Ottoman
empire, to which NO arc not committed by any poaltiy,
defensive. allianccs Arc we, or are NO not. resolved m
co operate with France, and have We exchanged definite
engagements with her as to the nature Of our common UNI
dcrtakingg Until such positive and specific agreements
exist las they always have existed under similar circum-
stances In former time) Turkey may doubt OF our support,
and Franco OF our CO. cooperation; everything Is vague, and
We ourselves scarcely know whether VIC are 1t peace or at
war. DO tho course of tho Government via, Il, NAV /, Ia

we have just recorded, Il Is past all doubt that Russia ia

i've form; aud IL Is equally clear that the expedition order.

In pursuance Of those orders, was Intended as an answer
to the communications addressed 10 him to him on behalf
Of Turkey by the Maritime Powers. That IL the opinion
we expressed on the first receipt Of this Intelligence by
inc telegraph, and that opinion "a strengthened to demon-
stration by the perusal of the Russian dispatches. The
entry OF the combined fleets into tho Black Sea Ia, then.
in our eyes, the natural and inevitable consequence of this
outrage; and, if they have already Quilted their anchorage
In the Bosphorus, they doubtless have full Instructions TO
oppose by force every attempt on the part Of the Russian
Navy to renew hostiltes. That collision will ensue when
naval forc.s are placed In such a position il extremely pro-
