LONDON. Saturday Sept. 25, 1850.
The naval demonstration hangs fire. and Europe
anxiousIy watches every movement of the parties
struggling over the ccssion of wretched Aor'a''c
village, but every one knows it is not the intrinsic
value of Dulcigno that has brought the power OF
An;tea Furone TO bear in the matter. What is now
bappeuinc at Dnlcigno Is but a sample OF what VIII
take place on a larger scale on the frontiers VI
Greece. and what may involve the most sanguiharS
Continental war since Waterloo should the reoe'-
lions elements stirred up by the Turks to thwart
the will of Europe finally break loose from the sui
tans feeble control and spread anarchy anu mas

ready to throw off its allegiance to the fau'spa"'

co,so n disturbance which would vibrate through
every Nation IN Europe The result of the Dnlcigno
struggle regulates directly the fate of Janina'
Should the Northern Abanlans be compelled to yeld
probably Greece may obtain peaceful possession
of the slice of territory awarded her. II, on tue
contrary. both Dulcigno and Janina have to be
wrested by force, then it Is measurable distance
to the time when the two great Slavic Powers
Russia aud Austria, must move their armies down
TO settle defnitvely the future of the Balkan
peninsula.
THE TURKS STILL DEFIANT.
The reply of the Porte to the European uitma'um
is a discouraging document. The tone seems 10
indicate that the Turk has put his back to the wall
and means to die hard Covert hints at a possible
massacre of the Christians throughout the En-
pire show that the Turks discern prospects OF
last holy war; and raise the question of sendng the
European fleet to Constantiaople.
A DESPERATE STRUGGLE AT HAND.
The Mahometans at Dulcigno threaten to burn
,he city rather than surrender, and probably WILL
netting. they say. under the countenance of Rlza
Pacha. Admiral Seymour has just returned from
concerting measures with Prince Nikita Inc plans

once: if So 1t will arrive before Dulcigno about
Tuesday. 1t is thought that the fleet will embark
its guns at Dulcigno BY this manGuvre the town
will undoubtedly be taken, but the Albsnians may
fulfil their threat to leave it only heap OF RUNS
for the Powers to give to their protege. In any
case tbe feet must not retire defeated. Rather
would England take up the matter singlehanded
than that her most effective arm should be dlscred-
p.RNrIL CAUSES DISAPPOINTMENT.
Thoso who expected Mr. Parnell to assume the
RESPONSIBILITIES of a statesman and propose feas-
ible plan for remedyipg the Irish grievances SO
loudly complained of, have been mistaken. lie
has chosen the less onerous attitude OF agltator'

of coercnc innocent persons for other peoples short
comings. His advice to punish the landlords for
the acts of the Government resembles his plan OF
cbastising the Government for the denquencies OF
the House Of Lords. The English Radicals and
other friends of Ireland regret the position he mas
taken. Unfortunately, no British party would care

6rnly persuaded that Ireland should he governed

Should these people, who comprise the property
owning class-which is omnipotent IN Great
Britain-get their backs up at Parnelfs ex-

English Radicals are not unfrendly to Ireland but
they are anxious to take into account the strong
interests and prejudices which exist in England.
II is stated from Dublin that Parne was driven to
his extreme position by the rivalry OF the Land
League leaders. 1t is said also that the League
funds are rapidly running low.
CHANGE OF PoLICY-TBE LABOR CONFLICT
The obstinacy of the Cape Government, backed
m Inv Sir Bartle Frere. has brought on another
native war; Lord Kimberly. the Colonial Secretary,
has declared that not an Imperial soldier Will
ever be employed in so unjustidabe proceeding as
d,sarmine the Basutos. Should. however, this
powerful semi-cvlzed tribe defeat the Cape troops
