RUSSIA AND TURKEY.

The uncertain and conflicting character of the intelligence which, through different channels, almost daily reaches us from Con- stantinople, is extremely rplexing ; and looking_to the vastness o the interests in- volved in the negociations which are now goizg on in that |c¢a.pital, it is certainly very mu to be deplo that neither the Govern- ments nor the press of western Europe have taken precautions to secure to themselves a more accurate reliable medium of direct and authentic communications, than is supplied by the idle osaip of Vienna, or the common rumour of rieste. A day or two ago, we were told that the question of the Hol Places was in a fair way of bein settle , through the intervention of the British Am- bassador, Lord Strntford. The terms were

3‘ to have have been actually agreed upon ;

and the only dillicuity to be ot over consist- .m some seem‘ ly triging objections which Prince Men ' of had raised as the mode of ratification. The Prince, it appeared, wished that the concession made to the claims of the Greek Church should be embodied in the form of a solemn con- vention ; but to this the Ports objected, and would consent only to the granting of a fir- man, upon the ground that it could onl recognize the Greeks and Catholics of is own subjects in the question. It was thought that this dificulty would he s cdily over- come, and that that art of lg:-ince Men- schikoli's mission mig t- be considered as disposed of. This intelligence, however. has hardly been received before it is fol- lowed by a rumotir that the Prince and the Ports are ain at variance, and that new dillicultios bad usurped the place of those which it was so d had been satisfactori- cvercome. e are now informed that t a real ith of the Russian Envo ’a demand is, that ussia shall be permitte to assume a Protectorate over the Greek Church in s Ottoman Em ire—a claim which, if conceded, would confer upon Russia a domi- nion over not less than 10,000,000 of Otto- man subjects, and of course at once ex. tiuguish whatever yet remains of Turkish independence. This is a demand to which it would be utterly iinpoosible for England, or France, or even Austria, to assent. Nevertheless, it is confidently believed, in certain quarters, that Russia is bent upon ' the int, and that she will not hesitate to achieve it by foul means, ifshe is unable to procure it by fair. “ The move- me a Russian Embassy," says an intelligent correspondent, writing from Cou- stantiuople, “are veiled in the dos st mys- tery, and continue to be a pu o to the

’ oldest diplotnatists. A fear begins to arise

that Russia will achieve a secret coop stain, similar to that of Unkiar Skolcssi, and that the Ambassadors of the Great Powers will hear, to their consternation, that all is concluded beibre they have well learnt what is going forward."

It is unquestionable that Prince Mous- ehlkol has been labouring hard to ac-

bncss. com lish ass treat of alliance with
