As far. i . as any direct calculation can he ltaaardod on stich a sub- ject, there seems no reason why a force iiuineri- cally equal to that wliich Russia could_epare for operation in thus parts should not be producabls from -Tutiielt lovlso alone. as not been very . easy to learn th'o"trutli on these points, but such, up to a very recent day, most have actually been the case since Omar Pasha’s army was usually represented as of about the same strength as Prince Gorteehalrofl"s. But, if l‘nrltey can sup- y.iusa. her ' can supply oflicere, Wll) should not the combined forces be s«.oii made a match for tho foreeso o Czar, without any ltosvy drains upon the home establishments of ritaia races 7 9 Of course, there would be some difficulty in thus combining Euro n with Asiatic eletrients nor would the operation exactlv rcseuible our own proceedings in Portugal. or Na olcon's arrange- ments in the Italian States. ut both French and English have had some experience in such tasttere. Algeria has taxed the wits of French ofl‘-era to- good purpose, and we ourselves main- tain is India an enormous force of Mahomaden soldiers disciplined under this very system. e have thousands of native otIicers—mon iriured to military service, desirous of military distinction. accustomed not only to command ltfurisulinaii sol- diers, but to obey Chrsiian superiors, and contented with comparatively small sclrnowldgeinents, both in pay and rank. Such men would be at least as much at home in Turkey as Cossacks and Cal- inucks, nor do we see why the resources of the British empire should not be turned to as good an effect as those of the Russian. If the Czar can drew his hordes of idolstere, clad in skins and armed with bows and arrows, from the wilds oi Tattary to the shores of the Mediterranean, we may surely do as iuuch with our well trained and well ordered armies of India. There would bi- little need of moving our Sepoy bataliaiis. A good draught of havildars and subahdars, with :- fevv of our Jacobs anti Beatsono and Christies at the head of thetn, wood soon turn 'l'urltisli recririts into soldiers fit for any field of battle. The origi— nal conquests of the Ottomans themselves were ell‘:-oted by.very similar agencieo.—'l‘liey conquer- ed Europe with European troops—witli levies im- ' pressed in these identical provinces trained in Ottoman usages, and led by Ottoman conimaiiders. It would be very desirable to sue the day when a 'l‘urkish division may be reconed as a matter oi course, a match for a Russian division ofeqoal ll|'~>l'Iglh; nor does tltere ecein much reason why luv u cotisutiimation should not be brought about. It is as much the duty of the allies to uti- lixti Turkish levies as tn strengthen 'I‘urlrtsli forti- fications, or avail themselves of Turkish positions If the raw materials of armies is to constitute, as see me like-ly, our chief want, and this row materi- al is supplied by Turkey, it would he the height of fully to neglect it. All that has been said and written about employing local forces in our colo- nics applies with still greater truth to the case bo- fore us especially as it is, Il)0\'P all iliiiigs, irn. portsnt that the barriers against Iinssiziii t‘llCl'tiClt merits in those parts should be establislicd not for the moment only, but for some time to come. It the 'I‘i_irltieh army had been what it may apparent ly be made, we should probably never have heard oftbe present war, and, if it can now be raised to this condition by better otgiiiizitioii, we shall l)r' relieved from many of our apprehensions for thr- future. That relative intr-ritory o llIllllal'y strength which has compelled the Sultan to invoke the aseitance of the western Powers arises, not front any numerical deficiency in the Ottoman levies, or an intrinsic weakness in the recruits themselves, but solely from the detriment occa- sioned by bad administration and imperfect disci- pline. 'I‘hst the Turks can fi;.-,lit has now been made plain, and surely men who can fight may be turned without much difficulty into soldiers. In the forthcoming campaigns we shall have the 0 tion oftwo plans. We me either treat thi- urltish army as of little account, and rely upon the British and French contingent: for the shock of battle, or we may endeavour to make the 'I‘urk- ish forces as steady and serviceable at our own The latter system will not only be more compli- mentary to our allies, but more advantageous to ourselves; rind, as it admits of being ut into execution without delay. and, according to all appearance, with good success, it is not unlikely to approve itselfto military authorities. What we want for the grapple with uaoia is inert, and it can hardly be advisable to continue sending these from Southampton to the Bosphorus while they exist ready made to our hands in the country itself.

It was announced at the meeting oftbe Literary Association of the Friends of Poland, which took place on their usual atiiiiversary, the 3rd of May- (the day mi which the last olish Constitution was proinulgaievi in 1791), that a Polish Legion would speedily be organised in the service of '|‘urkey, and th:tt5.000 stand of arms had been placed by the English Government at the disposal of Lord Raglan for the purpose. We do not hesitate to sav that in our opinion the Govern- ment liars taken no trieesure mum politic, or which gives more conviiicing proof that they are in earnest, than y seconding the formation of this legion.

In t is then, as in so niany other instances, the Courtttf Vicnna has done good service to that of St. Potersbiirg. In order to purchase the empty assent of the Emperor Francis Joseph to a judgment which he dares not assist in carrying into execution, all efficient measures for opposing the Russians in the field, and thus producing a speedy tertriiiirition to the war, were iicglerted or opposed.

' It was on the 19th of A ril that the Legisla- tive Council ueeed an A dress, couched in no uriniistakonb ri terms. The Lieutenant Gover- nor received that dooumenton the 20th, and on the 21st forwarded a copy to the Colonial Illi- nister, confidentially comtnunioatin to him the state ofpiirties in the Colony, and t nt nothing in his opinion, would determiiio the question on which the Assembly and Council were at va- riorico, and enable the present, or any Govern- ment to perform their Executive functions and duties to the public, but itn nppettl to the Coun- t.ry,—-ari nlternntive wliioli. in all probability the Lietttcnniit Governor would resort to, not asking the Duke of Newcastle whether such is power was vested in the Lieutenant Governor, rut risking His Grace whether it was ttdvieulilo, in the present state of iiiuttcrs, to continue some inoiitlis longer in the Island. Iiirniediutcly nftcr the ircscritntion of the titioti relative to the new Fritncliiso Bill, the ictitonnnt Governor directed the attention of the Executive Council to its prayer, and also to the state of the Colony, iritiruatirig his determi- nation to dissolve the House of Assembly ; tin after some subsequent correspondence and dis- cussion with tho Council, tbr-y llIr~'l|gl‘(‘.t‘.tI ztitli him.

Int, on D. careful review of tlic circutnetnnces, His Green was not satisfied that the Lieutenant (iovernor remaining at his post for a period. which might be imlefinitoly pro- longed, would be ndvieiible; itnd His Grace concluded its followe:— “L'iidcr thcsc circurustunces, I leave it to “yoursclf,with full confidence in your judgment, “ to hike such steps in relation to the Executive “ Council and Assembly as you may think pro- *~ 101' before leaving the Governuicnt.
