from = speech recently made by Mr..
Atshison. At Platte City. Missouri
Speaking Of The constitutional Con.
yention, Atchison says:
This Convention met at Topeka
and framed what they call Constitu-
ton, aud say they intend to apply fol
admission into the Union. Now,
should Congress admit them. .ohal
spil you dof III tell you what / will
do-if Congress admits them into the
Union without law or precedent, mod
ding his head and raising bis right
hand I'll resist But Congress will
do no such thing. They, the Free
State men. have held an slection and
selected officers on the 18th Of last
month, aud say they intend to put
their work in operation On the 4th OF
March. Remember the ~ Of March!
II they cannot do it legally, they say
they will do ii by force ofsrms. They
have sent their messengers to the
North and East. who are raisingmon-
ey. men. arms. etc.. for that purpose.

clarcd, and Russia will be invited"
TO assist in the pacifcation Of the Tur-
kisl Empire. We have no doubt that
he will assist at the almost inevitable
"cur<e' which must follow hard upon
such proceedings with the very great
est salifastion.
BY the treaty Of the 9Th Of
May. 1884, the allied powers are
are pledged to Withdraw their troops
! from the Turkish dominions within
forty-eight days after the signature
Of peace; but will the Austrians evac-
aate the principalities and leave the
French at Maslak? Or, viee Versa,
will the French leave Constaniinople
while Coronlni occupies Bucharest
We trow not. indeed.
But IL we have not insured either
the integrity or independence OF the
Turkish Empire II will be said that we
have got the naturalization Of the
Black Sea
This, certainly. Is a vast acquisition
IL true. but how 1t Is 10 exist while
Nicholaieif remains intact. and the
sea Of Azov is not to be interfered
with, it puzzles our brains to under
stand. Perhaps. however, it may
mean that as we have made Russia
sinh. her ships, we have new Navari-
no for the Turkish. so as 10 start the
two powers upon equal terms.
Russia, we are assured, laughs at
the idea of giving up her claims to the
Circassian coast; and as s e has adj
vanced by the fall Of Herat five hun
dred miles--irom the mouth of the
Actruck, now navigated by her steam
ers--towards India. and Is at the pres
ent moment chevai on the high road
Of our commerce, from Trebizond TO
Tabriz--we do not see that she will
have any great reason TO complain of
the proposed arrangements, and will
willingly make a truce.--to last until
the anarchy Of Turkey, occasioned by
Western meddling, will renderh her in

From ne London Morniag Herald, Fob. Is.
Uneasiness Of the British Pres
about the Conference.

The Ar7nistice.--It seems now TO be
now conceded that we are TO have an
armistice, and from that fact we may
safely conclude that peace is determin-
ed on. rs the advantages which accrue
TO Russia from a cessation of hostili-
ties are so great that no statesman
could be blind enough or wicked
enough to accede to such n measure il
il be possible that hostilities are to be
renewed.
These advantages consist Of the
following items:
I. A delay which will enable the
armies Of MouravieG to be reinforced
and supplied with material Of war.
2, An opportunity Of selling vast
quantities Of Russian produce for Eng
lish gold. to assist her in carrying on
the war.
3, Perhaps a facility OF raising a
loan upon the chance Of peace.
4. An occasion for disturbing, II
not breaking up the alliance Of France
and so isolating England in the coun-
ellis Of Europe.
8. A postponement Of all military
and naval operations TO such.a period
as will render an advance upon Tifla,
the only true strategic point in Asia,
difficult IL not impossible. from the set
ting in Of the unhealthy season in the
valleys Of Mongrelia and Inertia.
Surely. il the war Is to be renewed,
no one can for a moment suppose that
all these advantages will be given 10
Russia, as II purposely to increase our
own difficulties.
But il peace be made, for what.
then. have we sacrificed City thousand
lives and one hundred millions Of mo.
ney?
Was il for the purpose Of securing
the integrity of the Sultan's donnin-
ions? Surely not. for he is to forfeit
his Danubian principalities. which we
may suppose will come under our fos-
tsring care, like the last portion Of bis
territory of which we assisted in de-
spelling him--Greece--N European
nuisance--an anarchical nest Of swim
oilers, pirates and brigands.
Surely, this example of our skill in
organization is not one which wise
men would wish to follow.
We could not have made the sacri-
fee alluded to In order to secure the
Sultan's independence; for AL Europe,
including RUSSIA, is to interfere in
regulating the internal arrangements
of his empire.
The Christians. by the new i'm.
provemonts. are to have military SER
vice-which the great mass Of them
loathe--lorced upon them; and are, In
return, TO have tho harafch RENTED
IA tax which they willingly pay for
the exemption they have hitherto en-
ioyed from an imposition which
they are now desired to consider as q
privilege.
The attempt TO force these regula-
lions may--nay, will--produce dis.
turbances among all classes OF Turk.
ish subjects. which render an occupa-
ton Of the territory and coercion Of the
people necessary.
In the meantime peace will be de-
