Completed some fifteen or eighteen miles west

RUSSIA AND TURKEY.

In a recent address to the People oil
Burlington. VT. reported in "The
Free Press" the Hon. George p. Marsh
remarked, that
The present contest between Rus
STA and Turkey, is the great political
question Of the day. Our hopes Of II.
berty from the present contest have
thus far been disappointed. The rea-
son is that all the Powers of Europe
are united in maintaining the sta
tus quo. NoeIception can be made in
the case Of the English Government.
Before France suppressed BY force the
Roman Republic, she consulted Eng
land, and was formally notified that
the English Government had no objcc,
ton. Lord Palmerston afterwards stat
ed in Parliament that the whole Cabi-
net agreed in this sympathy with that
most atrocinus act Of despotism. Thus
far, the Turks have been left to defend
themselves, and they have done 1t gIo-
riously. France and England wait
for Austria, not because they fear her,
but because they sympathise with her.
In this sympathy the English people
do not share. The English Govern
ment could not do more popular thing
than to proclaim the emancipation Of
Italy.
"rhe Christians of Turkey are main.
ly of the Greek faith. The Greeks have
no idea of nationality aside from unity
of faith. Every man of their religion,
that is, who abhors craven images and
atores painted ones, is a Greek. They
look on the Car as the great head aud
defender of their faith, and hence eve

THE SANDWICH ISLANDS.

The Boston Chronicle publishes the
following intelligence from the Sand

" reliable source:
"By recent private letter from
Honolulu we learn that a message will
leave that city very soon for Washing
ton with Treaty Of Annexation. which
has been drawn up in proper form, but
not yet signed, as Judge Lee, who was
directed by our Government to witness
the signatures Of the instrument in
question, has been obliged TO absent
himself from Honolulu ON account oi
i'll health, and consequently has not
been able as yet to attend to the duty
assigned to him.
"The Treaty is to be signed by all

THE CoNGREss OF AMERICAN DIpLo.
MATIsrs AT BRussELs.-The New York
Times has what purports to be a cnr-
rect account Of the doings Of this ga
thering. The project Of the meeting
was due mainly to the outbreak of the
Spanish revolutions. and to the fact
that, after the installation of the new
Spanish Cabinet, it was found that We
could not purchase Cuba, and that the
diplomatic independence Of the Cap
tain General would not be conceded.
The Congress assemblies, more particu-
larly, for the purpose Of preparing a
report on the condition Of popular SEN
timent in Europe. The Times. gives
the following as the conclusions arriv-
ed at:
The ambassadors agree ia report
ing the utter absence Of democratic
feeling in Europe. In Spain there are
no republicans. Mr.. Sickles went
purposely to Madrid, and reports this
as the result ofhis observation. France
Is lost in admiration of its prudent and
practical government. Revolution in
Paris is out Of the question. Austria
has succeeded in gaining the hearts Of
her subjects. Even K0ssuth himself
is quite forgotten by the people, the
Magyar aristocracy being his only adj
herents. Poland has no chances, ex-
cept in the suite of monarchic combi-
nations, and Italy Is completely tired
Of the madness of Mazzinaism. So
OF the rest. Europe Is satisfied. The
people of the old continent are not ripe
for freedom.
