BEFORE THE COUP D'ETAT.

CoSsTASriyopLE, May 3D. 1875.
SO many reasons have combined to post pone the
luton OF the Eastern question that even prince
without any royal virtue, like the present Sultan. Alb
dol Azz has been enabled to hold the ncoherent fab
r,c of tho ostoiA&n Empire together Up the present
writing. But there signs that all Tho COM
ponent parts or it in Europe at least, falling from
his grasp. The Sultan has money, which
is the great support OF modern sovcrcigns,
and there 10 no rcsoluto and capable
about him whom he trust, and
who lie interested in the maintenance OF his
dynasty Moreover, no is coarse vulgar minded old
fellow, who has gwen personal offence TO several
people whom he would have concliatod II he had been
WISE He turned his back in extremely insolent
manner ON the Emperor Of Austria when his brother
sovereign paid him ncighborly visit at CONSTANT
nope, and he did many impairment things during his
travels in Europe Among other ndiscrctions he went
to logserheads with people who had been evil to the
Khedive,
OF WHOM HE JEALOUS;
and the Khedve having bought up half the european
permanent officials who TO be purchased has raised
up host OF enemies against tho Sultan. The day

which was founded by Gehemct Ally, and which
Is now seated on tho throne Of the
Pharoahs Is transfer tho seat OF their
government TO STEAMBOAT They have done greater
things than that The direct descendant Of who
started in liieas peder in tobacco aad ended It
master OF Egypt, may Well DO expected to extend his
authority from the banks Of the Nile those OF tho

not be forgotten that
THE KHEDrvE HAS ALMOST UNLIMITED COMMAND or
MONEY.
whereas tho Sultan has none. Again, some Of tho
ablcst and shrcwdest men Europe would bcfrend
the Knedvc and JOIN him In any government spccula-
lions likely to fill all their pockets. Let well
that reinforcement OF tho Sultan and the transfer
Of his dominons to the Khcdive would please an in
finite variety OF people Il would delight Turkish
bondholders because tho national debt Of Turkey
might DO easily paid If tho resources Of the Ottoman
Empire were administered with oven u decent
knowledge OF finance, and tho Khcdivo has much
more than that He is, perhaps, the best nnancicr

dams OF ASIA, who are very numerous; IL would please
the Powers, because IL would practcaly.maIntan tho
statu quo which all OF them desire TO maintain; IL

ube easy because the Khedvc, become Sultan, would
give any guarantees for good required OF
him, and he would be able to perform his promises OF
amendment, which the Sultan is able to perform.

THE DYNASTY.
There Is no solution which will satisfy tho contend
