From Our Own Correspondent.
LONDON Tuesday, Dec 81. 1853.
The Ministers unable to find Secretary for the
Home Department, have made their peace with Lord
Palmerston and he has once more returned to bis
Office 1t has not yet OOzed out upon what conditions
the cOntendiDg parties were recOnced, but the whole
transaction, the sudden boiling of Lord Palmerston
question OF the sham Reform BILL the inyectves
against him in the official organ Of the Ministry his
sudden return to Office and the praises now lsvshed
upon him by the same Times which last week abused
him bitterly do not in ans way do credit either to
Lord Aberdeen, or to Lord Palmerston. The astute
dipOmast is hated by the Court and dstrusted by the
Ministry, yet they cannot do without him. La the
Cabinet he is Troublesome out Of it dangerous. Such
is the conviction of the Minister'S and the impOssbiy
of meeting him successfully in Parliament, was the
cause of the submission of Lord Aberdeen since it is
certain that the Ministry has yielded TO Lord Palmer
stoD. But it is superfuOus to remark that even the
return of the Home Secretary to the Cabinet
councils, will not in any way give more energy
to the English policy in the East The
feet has entered the Black Sea, the Exchange
trembled the idea that Admiral Dundas mi ht sal, to
Sevastopo and destroy the Russian feet but when the
move he got for answer that it was with no hostile in-
tention that the English aud French fleets went into
the Euxue but only TO prevent similar disaster to
that of SinOpe The Courts of st. James and OF tho
Tuileries remain the footing of frieu iship
with the Gar before aud his fleet is safe, but
thing was of be done in order to appease the
indignation of the Sultan and Of The civilized world
and while the English and French Governments are
counting the Car and bctrayng the Sultan the En-
peror OF Russia is preparing for general war Ii is
unavoidable, and while the English Cabinet is olrnder
ing and wavering, and negotiating Russian emissares
aud Russian armies rousing the nations of inner
Asia the Persans the Affghans, aud all the enemies
OF England Thus they are preparing descent of bar
barians the British possessions in India. IL is said
that the Russiafexpedtion against khya is only at i've
leagues distance from Urgendi, the capital of the
Khana and should they succeed in taking it, the pres
tge of the Russian arms which has ready induced the
Shah of Persia declare against Turkey aud, as
il is reported against England, will oyerawe all
the Tartar and rurkOman States from the Chinese w
to the frontiers OF HindOstan.
In the mean time nothing is left untried to SOW the
seeds of dscord between England and France; rup-
ture between Napoleon and Victoria might insure the
England An article in The Tmes-whch charges the
French ambassador, paraguay dHilliers with having
opposed the immediate sailing of the fleet after the de-
feat Of SiLOpe in order to intercept the Russian fleet
made very deep impression in Paris, where there is
no secret about the GOODNESS of Prince Albert toward
Louis Napoleon and about the good wishes of the
Queen for the Orleans family Besides, the instruc-
tions of the English Government and the explanations
given TO the Russian ambassador show clearly that the
English had as little intention do harm to the feet OF
the Car as the French but Lord Radcliffe, for the
second time over reached the French EDbassadOr in
COnstanRope and put the responsibility OF refusing
the aid formally claimed BY the Sultan upon the should
ers of the FreuchmaD.

sure lis unconstitutional influence in the most
terms. The Coburg policy is openly denounced, and
even the loyalty OF the English people does not shield
him against public indignation. Yet in Parliament you
will not hear any expression of that feeling which pew
yades all classes of the people, with the exception of
the persons connected with the Exchange and with the
Peace Society Parliament represents the wealth, not
the peopleOf Great Britain.
The well fought duel OF Mr.. soue with the French
EmbsssadOr Mr.. Turgot, in Madrid, has excited great
attention in the arstOcratic circles II is probably the
fret instance in the annals of diplomacy, of two En-
bassadors fighting duel at foreign Court and doing
it for the criticism on a lsdy's dress. Yet nobody
bames Mr.. soule he behaved like gentleman, while
the French ambassador was In the wrong.
Izzet Pasha the Commander ofthe important fortress
of Belgrade, has suddenly died, not without suspicion
of poison The affairs of Servia daily grow more COM
pca,ed The Prince faithful to the Sultan, but the
great Russian party is daily increasing The Prince
alarmed By the presence Of his rival the pretenier
Milosh in the Russian camp asked for an explanation
from Prince GorchikoG, and got an eyasive answer
while The Milosh party in seryia canvassing the
people for Russia and trying to rouse them against tue
Porte. The sudden death of Izzet Pasha IS very
OmipOus under such circumstances.
