LONDON, Tuesday, April %, 1856.
Yesterday, the debate on the fall of Kars came
On, to last, probably, until Thursday. Mr. White
side moved the resolution "That while the house
of Commons felt it its duty to express its admira-
"tion ofthe galantry ofthe Turkish soldery, and of
the devotion of the British officers at the seige of
"Kars, it felt it to be equally duty to express its
"conviction that the captuaton ofshat fortress and
sthe surrender Of the army which defended i-there-
'by endangering the safety ofthe Asiatc previnces
"of Turkey--were in great measure owing to the
"waDt of foresight and energy on the part of her

While in the evenings the debate is continuing,
the days are now spent in negotiations, the Reform
Club, the Carlton, BrOokss and the Conservative,
being all filled with politicians; though it is sufi
GENTLY well understood that in case of defeat
Lord Palmerston would dissolve Parliament and
appeal to the country. He is ready to sacrifice
Lord Radcliffe on whom oil the blame is now
thrown by the Wings, since the hectOring ambas-
sador at Constantinople is Tory; besides, the
responsibility of the fall Of kars will be attributed
