THE EASTERN wAR--AUSTRIA AND
THE PRINCIPALITIES-THE ALLIES.
The London correspondent Of the N. York
Herald says that no one can understand the
evacuation Of the Principalities by the Rus
slams. and their occupation by the Austrians,
unless il was concocted plan between Rus
sia and Austria. "When the Austrians were
wanted in the Principalities to assist the
Turks, they refused to enter; but now the
Turks have driven out the Russians, the Aus
TRANS are encumbering the Ottoman power
with help What England and France could
have been about to have suffered such an
eventualty to happen as that Of the Austri-
ans entering the Principalities, when not
wanted there, no one can tell. A foreign oc-
cupstion. under any circumstances, must be
embarrassing. Turkey is now. or will be,
completely occupied by the French, English,
and Austrians; and this will be sure to lead to
fresh complications"
The Paris correspondent of the same pa
per remarks, that it is impossible to overrate
the importance of this new phase in the Eas-
tern difficulty. He adds: '.In the famous
days of the Parthians, their most deadly ar
rows were shot in retreat: and it is possible
that the Gar, in his present retrograde move
ment, may more effectually have embarrass-
ed his enemies than if some brilliant success
had attended his arms. The ostensible plea
on the part of Russia is Difference to the OPT
mons and wishes Of Austria but the substan-
tial reason is to be found in the fact that
Omer Pacha was on the point of marching
with strong division against the besiegers.
The arrangement was, that this division, Sc
parated into three parts, strongly supported
by the Anglo French army, should attack the
beslegers simultaneously On three points,
This plan, by some means, became known to
Prince Paskiewitsch, who, in consequence,
ordered his troops to withdraw from the right
bank of the Lower Danube. But will this re-
treat serve the Cars purpose, by detaching
Austria! This is the question in every ones
mind In England, it has SO stirred the
hearts of the people as to be well nigh too
much for the Premier"
The Paris Charirari has a jen d esprit on
the question of peace, to which the Cars
retreat across the Pruth may give rise.
Franco Russian conservative and his friend
are discussing the probable effect of the eva
cuation of the Principalities. The conserva-

that everything is now amicably settled.

The correspondent of the Herald adds that
Lord Aberdeen's speech, notwithstanding his
subsequent explanation, has thoroughly
alarmed the French public mind, and that al
ways sensitive to the good faith of England,
and always full of .fneSSe themselves, the
French are horror struck at the bare posi-
bility of being overreached by their island
ally, and by the fear, which has ever been
uppermost in their hearts lest there should be
some secret understanding between Austria
and England. Lord Aberdeen's subsequent
explanation of the speech whose Russian
leanings produced so much sensation in Pa
ris, has, it is said, rather modified than mega
lived the Interpretation given to it, which was
directly in favor of the Gear. The correspon-
dent adds that even the phrase, " l consider
France more powerful than Russia and Aus
tria together" has been construed to mean,
that great caution is necessary in pushing
matters with Russia prevent her, if you
will from troubling Turkey for the future,
but as regards Europe generally, you have
more to fear from France than any other
power. Make to yourselves friends, in fact
of the mammon of unrighteousness, and
shake hands with Russia as soon as you can
consistently do So
OF course, in these suspicious the French
do great injustice to the English people, and
we think very likely, even to Lord Aberdeen.
whose explanatory speech must have struck
all dispassionate minds as quite bold and war
like for an old fogy. Lord Lyndhurst is un.
doubtedly the true representative of British
sentiment in regard to the war and its purpo
ses and the French ought tos as much. But
their sensitiveness and suspicious spirit dc
not auger favorably for the permanence o
the alliance with England. The two nations

all their professions, and if Nicholas protract.
