Great Britain recedes after having APP
pealed to her great weapon-the

Turkey, and not much for Greece,

Late on Friday there was an i'm
preston hat the Sultan, at last
alarmed, had become reasonable, and
would make concessions; and a ru-
mour was current that if he did not,
he would be dethroned. Anything
may occur at Constantinople, but
there has been no time for sound in
formation from thence to arrive in
London, and the balance of probabili-
ties is against both the impression

stronger men than himself. The Pa
has have, hitherto, when put to the
test, always fought, and they may
possibly rely on the defences of the
Sea of Marmora. indeed, they will
hardly believe in combined action
against them until they see the Fleet
off Constantinople. As to the de-
thronement, who is to do it, There
are three powersin Constantlnople-the
Sultan, the army, and the Mussulman
mob-and the two latter are usually
Cor fighting. Ifany competitor could
promise regular pay, the army might
listen; but how is any man OF the
House OF Gilman to secure that
We note, nevertheless, as part OF the
situation, that the regular signal OF
danger to a Sultan-the assertion that
lie is mad-has reappeared, and do
not forget that jews, and Greeks, and
Armonians with large resources have
u hoavy stake in preventing the Sui

The separate attitude Of Franco is
almost inoxplicable, but We believe
this, so far as it goes, is an accurate
explanation. M. Gambctta, General
Fare, NJ. Constans, and probably one
other member of the Cabinet, are in
clined to act strongly on behalf OF
Greece; but M. Gr6vy, NJ. BartheI-
my st. Hilaire, and the majority of
tho Cabinet are opposed to any overt
action, though not indisposed, by
sending French ships as spectators,
to declare openly and Enthusiastically
that France does not condemn it. In
most cases, NJ. Gambetta's influence
would prevail, but in this it is be-
lieved that the Chamber is On the side
Of the Ministry. The majority of
French politicians, it is said, think this
an English question, and are opposed
to any exertion or expenditure without
a quid pro quo, That this is the feel
ing Of the upper classes, is quite GER
tain; but M. Gambetta rarely mis-
takes the sense of the constituencies,
and he has yet to discover how far the
Chamber is opposed to him on this
matter. Till thati is known, the action
of France must be uncertain; and it
is not to be fully predicted from the
Press, which is apt in Turkish affairs
to represent mere syndicates. The
country constituencies may yet see,
as Napoleon saw, the immense value
of English cordiality towards the Re-
public, which will not be generated
by shrinking from an obvious, though
non-paying duty. 1t was France
that interfered for Greece at Berlin.
