high quarters there, lest Russia should adopt tl'ie_ policy of evacuating the Dunubian princi- palities. and thus_ detach the German were, Aus_tr‘ia and Prussia included, from the estern coalition.—'1‘he correspondent says :—

I learn, on antliority, that Russia has mrmifested a desire to conclude an arrangement which should have, for its principal basis, the evnctintion of the Principnlities, and the esta- blisliinent of the status gun, and that pro '- tions have been made to Austria to that en.

fliougli such a move on the part of Russia would argue the consciousness of weakness, and at_dcsiro to got out of the dillicult position in which she now is, with two great were in nrins against her by land and sea, wit her sea- t'n:t_st rigorously blocked up, and discontent and ll‘l'll1|llt)ll uinopg her people, et it in not thought, that it proceeds from any desire of ltu-sin to retrace her steps, nor from the slight- est intcntion of abandoning the object for the iittuiiiinent of which she entered on the war.

) Her reitl design is, by relieving the German I oivpiwi from the upprehcnsion occasioned by a continued occupation of the Principslities. to dctztcli them from their alliance with England and Franco". and the fact cannot be concealed that. whether well-founded or not, apprehen- sions itro entertained in certain high tinrters ll(‘l‘t,'. tlIt'tttl)l8:llltWeIl'lCnb on the part o Russia iuiiy produce on the German Powers the elect int-milt-d.

It is to be hoped that these fears are ground- loss: but it is udniitted, that the ofl'er to evacu- ate the Principalities would be a temptation vrhicli neither Austria nor Prussia would resist; and that they would consider it as suficient satisfaction for what has occurred.

It is calculated by Russia, that ifI-In land and France continued to carry on hosti ities after the evacuation, they would not have the moral, much less the material, support of the

'ermtin Powers: nay, more, that something inigltt occur to oblige them to transfer to Rus- sin the alliance they had previousl given to us.

To gain time, and trust to it or future ad- vantages, is her object, and there is reason to fear, that the intrigues at Constantinople are with the view of enublin her to do so. The recent conduct of Redschid Pasha. and the new nomination he has made in the Cabinet, are sullicient to excite stipicion that all is not right, and that some project is hatching for the sole benefit of Russia.

The reports from the Turkish army on the Danube continue to give evidence of skill and courage such as have never been exceeded in any war. The discomfiture of the Russians before Silisti-in is ascertained to have been attended with ii. degree of havoc, that would probably pave caused any Government not utterly reck-
