This conception of II, which will be
instilled into the minds of the vassal
population of Turkey, who are not
likely to faint for want of stimulants.
1t will be SO regarded in Turkey, and
as such it is hailed by sympsthizers in
our own country. We regard this out
look with apprehension and dislike.
Nothing at present gives US more con-
Germ than the prospect upon which we
have already entered of seeing in Eng
land a division of opinion and senti-
ment, to which the clasping of sympathy
for North or South during the American
war was as nothing. Whatever Gov

steady and sober support from all sides;
but already Ministers are threatened
with tampering enthusiasts who ex-
phcitly declare themselves ready to
sacrifice our safety in the East rather
than that England should shame herself
by being any way in opposition to such
an enterprise as the destruction of Tur-
key. How civilization Is to te advanced
by wars which imperil civilization like
our own when spread over half the
world Is not a question which these
particular enthusiasts of humanity are
likely to consider"
