ESTABLISHED AUGUST 24. 1852. WHEELING. WEST VA., SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 5, 1878. VOLUME XXVI?NUMBER 115. A liEKTLEMAN whn came down from Lagrange, opposite Wellsburg, informs im that he raw lying at the depot there, awaiting shipment to New York, about 40 black walnut log*, which had been mostly cut on Smiley Johnson's (arm near Lagrange, and for which the pur* chaser had paid $10 per tree, each tree cutting from two to three logs of say twelve feet each. These logs had been bought for shipment to England, and will go there from New York. They are shipped from Lagrange to New York at $57 per car, which expense, together with the price paid per tree, and the cost of getting them to the depot, and the car* riageby sea, will make them pretty cost* ly logs by the time they reach Eagland. And yet when they are cut into veneering we presume that they will pay a good profit. _ Mr. Kaminsuy, of Hush Kun, who owns the leading interest in the coal shaft at that place, formerly owned by Peck & Ramsoy, informs us that he has run an openiug under the bed of the river half way across, and has Home notion of run* nirtg it clear acro**-?nd sinking a shaft on this side, with a view of supplying coke and coal to the Wheeling market by the new railroad. This ho can not do at present from the Ohio side owing to the igh toll* on tho Baltimore & Ohio ridge. Ilia shaft is 200 feet down, and reaches the well known Steubenville shaft coal?a coal that is used altogether by the Jefferson furnace* at Steubenville and that has been extensively u?ed at Mingo and Martin's Ferry. Mr.Kamin* sky also inform* us that a gas has been tapped in one of the room* of his nbaft which he has conducted in a pipe to the main entrance, and with it illuminates that part of the mine. This would seem to indicate the presence of oil somewhere in the locality of tho work*. Tin? ICcpubllcriitfi of .11 on on git I Jit County, tho rrcalilcut, .and tlio Silver Hill. A subscriber at Morgantown in a letter of remittanco to the Intelliuenckh takes occasion to mako the following ob servations: "Our leading Republicans here sympathise with Conkling, Blaine and W. E. Chandler, and as a sequence distrust Hayes, EvartB, Schurz, Key &Co. 1 think a large majority aro for a silver bill covering the complete legal tender features." We have great respect for tho Republi cans of Monongalia county. They have always been among the Htaunchest loy alists in West Va., and no men have stood more unfalteringly by the Repub lican party since the war. We should therefore very much regret for their own nakes a* well us for tho good of the Re* publican party and tho whole country, to nee them taking a position which we re* gard as a mistaken one. First, wo desire to ask our friends in that county what good is likely to grow out of a split with the President ? Look ing at it from the lowest standpoint, thut of expediency, is there any hope of vic tory in such a course ? Is there not every probability that the country will over whelmingly sustain tho President? If bo, is it wise to divide and beocme an easy prey to the common foe? Second, is the President doing anything inoro than he promised to do in his let ter of acceptance, when he wrote tho fol lowing words on tho 8th of July '70: " Let me assure my countrymen of the Southern States that if I shall be charged with the duty ot organizing an adminis tration, it will be one which will regard and cherish their truest interest?the in terests of tho white and colored people both, nnd equally: and which will put forth in best efforts in behalf of a civil policy which will wipo out forever a dis tinction between North and South in our common country." Third, can any one say that tho Pres ident's policy ban not had tho tendency to produce a better feeling throughout the South than previously existed there ? it was only tho other day that the Repub licans of one of tho Month Carolina dis tricts, at a special election for a Stato Senator, elected their candidate by 1,500 majority; and this too, the dispatch stated, ?'notwithstanding a vigorous Democratic canvass." We heard of no Ku Klux and no killing. That sort of thing seems to have protty nearly died out. Governor llainpton has pledged himself before the world that the colored man's rights under his administration shall be as carefully guarded as the white man's. The recent election referred to serves to strengthen his declaration in the general estimation of the country. Fourth, admitting that the Republi can party has lout supremacy in the I South, is it desirable, if it w.ih possible, to attain or retain supremacy there by exercising a "paternal government" over the colored people, and thus keep up an unhealthy notion in their iniud* that they rau*t all vote in a crowd for the Repub lican candidate, no odda if he ia a carpet btg adventurer like Patteraon and Spencer? Fifth, how camo it that the Republican party was not only losing the South prior to Hayes' inauguration, but the North ulso ? New York, Connecticut, New Jer sey and Indiana had gone, and Wiscon uin, Oregon, aud even Ohio, were going. This If a suggestive recollection that bear* with great force on tho pro?ent situation. The attempt to revive the old policy will not only make the South ?olidj against tho Republican party, but lote to it pretty much the whole North. Sixth, aa to a Silver bill with unlimited legal tender features; (and we presume unlimited coinage also,) that is a matter I in which Blaine and Conkiing, and the j other goda whom our friends propose to I follow, will probably antagonize them quito aa much as Ilayes, EvarU, Schurz it Co. We think it likely that when the farmers of good old Monongalia come to I think twice over such a Silver bill, it will not sound 00 ailvery aa on the first jingle. Farmers are the laat people in the coun* ry to favor any change in the currency that will enhance the price of everything they are obliged to buy, while it will not correspondingly enhance their own pro ducts. Wheat, corn and pork are regula ted in price by the European markets, and all our surplus mult be Hold in com petition with Russia and the Mediterra nean country. Not so with tea and coffee, boota and shoes, clothes,furniture, labor, Ac. They are all enhanced in price at the farmer's expense. lie has no way of keeping even. These remarks do 'not apply to a care fully framed Silver Bill, particularly if the bill ahould provide for a dollar's worth of silver in the dollar, but to a bill that proposes to turn looae aa legal tender, at a depreciated standard, the entire product* of our Bilver mines, and all tho bullion that American and Euro pean hpeculators can crowd into our mints When such a bill aa this latter becomes a law, and beara fruit, wo shall miss our guess by a large majority if the Monon galia farmers do not Bicken of it as effectually as the Israelites did when they wanted meat ao bad and got auch a dose of quaila. _ UUIt NT.CL,IIIM\ ILLKLETTEIt St. Ct.Aliwvru.K, January 5, 1878.

NswYobk, December 3.-'l'he mar riage of the Millionaire, Mr. Lord, aged SH, to the. widow Hicks nged 4J, ha? cre uted a profound sensation, nouement 1* likely to be of tho most sensational character. The sons and daughter-of Mr. Lord, says theWorl 1, claim that their aged and infirm father is the victim of the wiles of an artful and designing woman, and they are about to commence proceeding* in the courts to have the marriage set aside, on the ground of their father's imbecility. On Monday Mr. Lord wa? driven by his coachman to tho residonce of Mrs. Hicks, and thence the couple were driven to the home oP Cardinal McCloikev, by whom they were united in marriage. Thev took pains to conceal their movements al ter leaving the Cardinal's residence, but, on the authority of Mrs Hicks footman, it 1* believed they started South.for a short tour, which may include Honda. Mrs. Hick*, however, informed her ser vants that she would be home on Friday. The parties are widely known through ...i ,|... conntrv. Mr. Lord in a brother of John Lord, the victim of the fsmou* Lord bond robbery, winch created a wide sensation several years sgo. Upon the death of John Lord, his brother rhoraaa inherited his vast possessions, estimated lit neveral millions, for the most part in realestate and United States hood. Thomas Lord had been a poor man until this sudden elevation to the ranks of the wealthiest. Ho has hu.bauded his mon ey carefully, but lias not been noted for business ability, and. though office in Exchange place, he has never figured to any large'extent lothelinan. dial operations of the hichange. H i* a decrepit old man, eighty-three ind feeble, fie t two daughters, who expected to be the; sole heirs of bis enormous I llicks. the heroine of this latest bit ol I gossip in high lite, wa, .n .,,.r?ungl widow between forty-five and fifty years | oi auo, but apparently much younger. She is possessed of great personal beau y, has been noted far and wide in fashiona ble circles for her exquisite taste iin, drw, and has been the leader ol **er set iin *?w York. London, and Paris. Her husband died some ten yeani ago, leaving a cc.mfor table fortune, which, combined* th her peraonalcharm., has secured o her the attention of many eager suitors. She a. pired to social distinction, and won high iiIhco in every fashionable coterie to I'kh she attached herself by h.r gr.? social talents, and beauty. She is a Ko mnnCatholic. Her widow life has been mostlv spent abroad,and she returned to New York only four weeks ago, from her last prolonged sojourn on the continent. 11 Is said that her very extravagant hab its of Hfo have greatly impair^ her tor tune, and the indignant heirs ol Mr. Lord claim that her last matrimonial exploit i* tho act of an adventuress who has ?^.WE??5 whom she cares nothing. Since '?? ''? turn of Mrs. Hicks from Europe Mr. 1 ?rd lias been a frequent visitor at her house, and he has been besrd to say that ho preferred her .ocietytolhatofan; lady of his acquaintance, but none of his relatives dreamed that he had any thought ot marrying her. ?euMndig nation knows no bounds. Mr?. Ueo. ue Fnrost Lord, a distant relative of the old ? *5* tT,_n .... i? is a clandestine match Sf which Mr. Lord's friend" had not the slightest inkling. Mr. Lord s acquaint ance with Mrs. Hick has exlended orer a period of several years, but no one knew that there was anything more lhan the most ordinary friendship bjtwjn ihem. His son. snd dsdghters aay t?t be has been bodily kidnapped from his quiet home on Seventeenth street, and, Without a will ol his own, almost com pelted to marrv an adventuress, whose wile* have dazzled him. The heira have retained the service of Mr. Henry Day, who will not to-night fully indicate the Rteps they propose to take, but he says that they will vigorously assert their rights, and are confident of their ability to overthrow what they characterize as a villainous plot. He intimates, however, that the court will be asked to declare the marriage null and void, ar.d to place the property in the hands of a trustee. The ground upon which the action will be based is the imbecility of the father. They will also ask the court to grant a temporary injunction restraining Mr. Lord from disposing of any of bis prop erty pending the suit. The children eay that their father is so ill and feeble that thev hardly regard him as responsible. It is stated that on Monday Mr.j Lord bought a bill of goods at Stewart's amounting to $600, and gave a check for $5,000 in payment, which has sinco been protested. Further developments sre expected tomorrow. Bellairk Locals.?About 11 o'clock Thursday night last the body of Thomas Mulkearns, formerlv proprietor of Tom's Saloon, was found dead, lying on the pavement near a saloon kept by M. Synskey. From various facts and relia ble statements elicited, the Coroner's jury, which was empanneled here venter day morning, rendered a ''verdict," "That the deceased came to his death by 'convulsions,' canned through excessive indulgence in 'Spirtiout Liquor.'" The deceased was born at Portland, Maine, 23 years of age, and not married, lie was a resident of this city for tive years, and only in the last two yeais engaged in the trafficking of whisky. City Marshal Drugan arrested a cer tain character yesterday, who gave his name as John Stebbing, charged with stealing a new pair of pants from the tailoring establishment of II.

The tailoring establishment of John W. King was feloniously entered Thurs day night laxt, and one p.iir of tine pants taken therefrom. The thieves, unable to effect an entrance at the frontdoor, which showed marks of violence, managed to meet with more success at the rear en trance of the shop.

Dr. Q.'W. Kelly, the mysterious prac titioner, who located in our midst in July last, suddenly decamped last Monday in the dark hour of midnight, and ju?t in time to escape the iron grasp of justice, to answer to tho charge of several grave and diabolical crimes of which he was accused. The Street Kailway cars in conse quence of the heavy fall of snow the night previous failed to make any ruiiB yesterday forenoon. GaB poflts were ordered to be placed at the cut, from Indian run to Gravel hill. A very dangerous locality at nights.

RESISTANCE TO REVENUE OFFICERS., Revenue Agent Wagner has been in thin city consulting with the Treasury authorities upon the subject of recent as saults made upon revenue officers by vi olators of the law in South Carolina. Major Wagner gave the Commissioner and Secretary very full accounts of the condition of the service and the difficul ties that had to be contended with in cer tain districts in the South department, lie will not ask for troops to assist its officers in vindicating the laws, as it is thought that sufficient force of its officers properly commissioned and armed will not be resisted while making arrests. The usual Cabinet 8ession was held to day. Secretaries Evarts and Thompson were absent. PARDONED. The President has pardoned Charles Lewis convicted of passing counterfeit half dollars, anil imprissoned in the northern penitentiary of Indiana. Win. S. Morris convicted of passing counterfeit money and imprisoned in the western penitentiary of Pennsylvania, Frank Silver convicted of passing and possessing unstamped cigars nud sentenc ed to imprisonment in the Missouri peni tentiary, and Kiley Bowman convicted of illicit distilling und sentenced in the Western District of North Carolina to two years imprisonment. The pardons are all made upon applications hacked by re commendations of the Prosecuting Offi cers and Judges of Courts before which they were tried. The Cabinet was in sersion one hour. The discussion was generally on topics connected with the Mexican relations. It was thought proper to make the reports of S C. Slade, Collector at El Paso, re garding the recent trouble, public. In a letter to the Secretary of the Treasury dated El Paso, October 22d, the Collector nays: ?*ldeem it my duty to make you acquainted with the facts rela tive to the recent troubles on this front ier, as near as I have been able to learn them, although mainly of local character. It cannot be denied that many Mexicans from the neighborhood were engaged in it and that the mob had assurances of further assistance if needed." The Col lector details the troubles arising from the adoption of measures to prevent. Mexicans getting salt from lake* in the vicinity and which ended in the death of Mr. Candis. In a letter dated '20th, the collector says: On the Gth or tith inst., .A I.AHUK NUMBER OK MFXICANH, with wagons, left San Elizario for the Suit Lakes. They were expected back on tins i:Uh or 14th,and on the afternoon of ihe 12th, Mr. Howard left here lor San Elizario with an encort of Texas rangers lor the avowed purpose of serving writs of sequestration and arrest on the parties having the salt. I am informed that after they got there they went into the Plaza and through the principal streets of the town, and that Howard greatly exaspera ted and incensed the Mexicans by calling them "greasers" and other opprobrious epithets, and by inviting them to come and take him now. Daring the night tho Mexicans gathered and armed themeelvefc. In the morning the rangers found them nelvcs surrounded and firing began on both sides. 'first shot. It is impossible to ascertain who fired the first Bhots; some allege that a man named Atkinson, who attached himself to the rangers, fired the first shot. Othera allege that the first shot came from the Mexicans. All are agreed, however, that the Mexicans killed tho first man, a Mr. Ellis, who had a contraot to supply the ranger* with provisions, &c. It ap pears that many of the rangers had con gregated at his houpe that evening and were having a convivial time, when Ellis proposed to go out and see what was go ing on. He never returnd and it is sup posed that he was spying around and did not halt when commanded to do so, and wipi shot, or that he had obtained some intormation while eaves dropping and had been caught in the act. For four days tbey had the rangers surrounded anil had commenced to tunnel under the building in which the rangora were quar tered. On the 10th instant A WHITE FLAO was raised by the rangers for the pur pone of getting an old gentleman, Mr. L ioinls, out of the ranger's quarters who happened to be caught in there when they were aurroumled. The Mexicans also raised a white Hag and Mr. Loomis got out. From this circumstance negotia tions were opened and Lt. Tays asked them what they wanted. They replied they wanted Howard and would have him. They asked Lt. Tays whether he was hired by Howard, or was he on duty under orders from the Governor of the iilate. When informed he was under in structions from the Governor, it appeared to give them a new idea. They then told Lt. Tays that if Howard would come over to their camp and talk for himself, thev thought that the trouble could be settled. Lt.Tays went back and told rioward what they said to him, bnt that he need not go without he so wished. Howard, however, concluded to go, and Lieut. Tays went with him. The Mexicans then sent for Atkinson and a Mr. McBride, who had been acting as Howard's agent in the salt business. Lieut. Tajs and Howard were in a roojn together and Atkinson and McBride were on the outside. The Mexicans went in where Tays and How ard were and told Lieut. Tays that they wished to speak with Howard alone. Tays refused to leave him, whereupon they took him in their arms by force and carried him out of the room. In the meantime the balance of the rangers had surrendered. They disarmed them and placed a strong guard over them. Then they took Howard, Atkinson and Mc Bride out to one side of the town, to a place where they had already dug a grave, stood them in a row, picked out nine of their best marksmen and SHOT THEM DOWN. They held the rangers prisoners during the night and released them the next day, giving them their horses but keeping their arms. During the fusilade two rangen were killed, and it is thought three or four Mexicans were killed and a number wounded. 8ince that time (the 18th Inat) nothing definite has been as certained of their operations- or inten tions. Not a single American is left in the town, all having fled to this place. The ranger*, ol course, feel very bittei because of the rough treatment they re? ceived. The Mexicans claim that the/ wanted nothing but Howard, and him they would have, COOT WHAT IT MIGHT. He had killed Cardis, their beat friend, There can be no doubt that many of the mob were from the other ride of the river, News has just been received that the Mexicans at San Elizario are taking their families to the other side of the river, under promise of the official* there that they will protect them. The Deputy Col lectors' ofiiceBat San Eiizario and Yoteta have been closed for two weeks. The Dep uty Collector of the latter place sought refuge here. Have not heard from the latter for twelve days. GOVERNMENT CONTRACT ASSIGNED. The Secretary of the Treasury to day awarded the contract for weighing im ported merchandise at New York to Solo mon Spitzen, of Brooklyn, who waa the lowest bidder.

New York, January 4.?Nearly all the counsel concerned in the Erie suits, now at argument before Judge Brady, were present thin morning, except Wrn, M. Evarts, who finiahed hi* argument last evening. After some diacu^aion between the counael as to the arrangement for the hearing of theae caHea, McFarland, councel for the Erie Railway, aro?e and expressed his belief that the counsel had arranged to bring nil thet-e suit* before Judge Brady, and then followed up with the emphatic remark, that he disapprov ed of theae selections of "judicial hop pers." For a moment there was a dead | silence in the Court. The counael looked at each other and then at McFarland, who with folded arms stood before the Bench. In another instant a dozen counsel were on their feet, but noticing that Judge Brady Beemed deeply affected, they all sat down. Judge Brady, with head bowed down and in an low a voice that much that he paid was inaudible, sniil, "He felt wounded, and that this was the first lime such a remark was ever made to him since he sat on the Bench." McFarland immediately apologized, saying that he meaut nothing offensive, and the Court merely replied that THE AFOLOGY IB ACCEPTED. The end of the matter was that Judge Brady declared he would not hear any of motions in question, and the counsel were compelled to go before Judge Daniels to get the cases on the calendar for bearing by another Judge. Ex-Judge Ashbel Green in reply, onbehalf of Jas. McHenry, to the argument of Mr. Evarts, charged that the Great Supreme Court of New York had been seized by the other side and bound head and foot to the chariot wheels of the reconstruction com mittee. frMILntKS.

FOREIGN NEWS. WAR \OTKSI. Boqot, January 4.?The Turks still occupy the line of tbo Kara Loin river , and carefully guard its bridges on the i roads to Shumla. Heavy ice is running , in the Danube. London, January 4.?From letters written by Lady Strongford, superintend ing the hospitals at Sofia, it would ap pear that the Turks had determined not to attempt to hold the place. Lady Strongford writes that sho will remain and believes will be able to continue her duties without interruption or annoyance. The Turkish nurses have agreed to stay. What was feared was disorder in the town, but the Turks have gone away quietly and there is not the slightest panic, noise or trouble. The town will be taken without resistance. This coincides with information from the Turkish side about the movemento of their forcea. All the garrisons, in exposed positions beyond Sofia, have been gradually withdrawn and concentrated at Ikutiman. The force at Karmarti seems to have been surprised and endangered by the Kussian flunk movement upon Tashesen, but succeeded in escaping to Seatitiza, after a hard fight, from which place it can reach Ikutiman by the Topobutza Valley. It is not be lieved that the Russian General Gourks has sufficient force tostorm Ikhtiuian De file, or that such a force could be supplied in the present state of the Russian com munication. enulanu. Mill I>i?cn**ing British lliglita In the Eastern Question., London, Janotry 4.?The Queen, it is "aid, will not open the Parliament in person. The Stwdard saya tfc'at the public will not be surprised to learn that the govern* ment is unable to coincide in the opinion that no^ material change has occurred I in the situation, England cannot, with I due regard to onr interests, accept the position claimed by Rupsia, that the terms of peace are a matter of settlement be | tween the latter and Turkey, and subject only to ratification by Europe. Premier haa been givinginstructions to Lsg&rd, Ambassador at Constantinople, over the head of the foreign Secretary. If Earl Derby attempted to force the hand of one section of the Cabinet in No vember, it is equally probable that the Earl of Carnovan may be resorting to a similar expedient, now that the dan gers of the situation have become more definite. Such are the views of those who believe that the Earl of Carnovan's speech expressed no moro than his per sonal opinion. X am bound to say that there a re in the minority some of the Earl of Carnovau'a colleagues, who may differ from him on such questions as justice or wisdom of the Crimean war, but they are perfectly unanimous as to the necessity of t his country having a voice in the final settlement. On Wednesday and Thursday the Cab inet are understood to have addressed themselves to some of the difficulties in volved in the means to bring their unan imity ro a successful issue. The terms of jwace are not now unknown to them, and, as represented here, are much more moderate than expected, according to one account, which ia accepted in well in formed quarters. THE NEUTHAUZATION OF THE DARDA NELLES is not even mentioned, but there is a sue cession of territory in Bessarabia to the old frontier. I au ppose the independence of Servia and Koumania'a accession of territory to iMontenegro and the cession of Batoura and Kara are part of the scheme. The fate of the Turkish fleet is not within the proposal. That will be decided when the Russian government requires compensation. With the new light thus thrown on the situation, it would not be surprising if our govern ment advised tho Sultan to make a direct appeal to Russia. THE TIMES, referring to these conflicting interpreta tions, says there ought to be an end to the mystery and ambiguity which hiive of Jate shaken every interest in the country. Tho time has more than come when the government should cease, whether ?t home or abroad, to have two voices. The public have no wish to inquire too curi ously into the idiosyncrasies of individ ual* or the secret* of cabinets, but?eriou? and vital interesta ol the country would be imperiled by anjr prolongation of this ambiguity, and the public would justly resent any fresh encouragement to the re cent agitation policy upon which the country is resolved, and to which the min istry are pledged/as one recommended not only by expediency, but by justice and honor, and any menace or deviation from it can no longer be endured. taijc or noma jo Malta to elect a pop r.. A telegram from Home says that Car dinal Manning haaauhmitted to the Col lege of Cardinals a propasal that on the death of Pope Pius IX, the conclave as semble at Malta. The Sacred College Is divided in opinion on the matter. The Italian Cardinals are indisposod to ac cept the proposal. WEATHZ8 BOUND, Specials from Bucharest say that the army which was to cross Shipka Pass and co-opernte with Gen. Gourk*, in the movement against Adrianople, gives no sign of activity, and while the present weather continues such an operation would be impossible. The deep snow of fers almost unsiirmountable obstacles to wagons and the Russians have no sledges. Orders have been issued for a supply of sledges but by the time they are ready the snow will probsblr have disappeared and the roads be unpassable from mud and water. A correspondent at Buobirest tele graphs that he consider! it improbable that the Russians can reach Adrianople before May next. Dispatch from Constantinople says that the Turkish Chamber of Deputies adopted an amendment to the address in reply to a speech from the Throne at the open ing of Parliament relating to the Govern ments military policy, the Mininisters of War, Marine and Foreign Affairs are In vited to explain. The Government haa demanded tEe rate of 8,000,000 Turkiah pounds for the requirements of the army. The Tcltgraph, Pall Mall Owutic and other anti Russian papera take the same view of the Earl of Garnavan'a speech on Wednesday last, as did the Standard this morning. The Standard said that England can not, with due regard to English inter ests, nccept the position that Russia and Turkey can settle theterma of peace, sub ject to Europe's ratification. If this claim was allowed, England would be debarred, except under serious disadvantage* of in terferelngio defense of her legitimate .in terests. The Earl of Carnarvon's apeech it now seems was delivered Wednesdsr before the Csblnet Council which bad to consider the Russian answer to England's note relative to peace relations. The Manchester Qiumlim't London dispatch sais: The supporters of Lord Beacon.field's policy contend that the tsrl of Carnarvon's speech was Intended not to expand, but to infiuence the Cab inet's views. There is some justification for this judgment. It is no secret tbat the Earl of Derby's Nevember speech was a sbrprise to the Premier and also a source of Intense annoy anse, but it is likewise well known that If be question ol peace negotiations were opened now the Russian occupation o Constantinople would be equally out o the question. II there are any othei points on which British interests raiglil be effected they most be of minor luipor tance. TKBRI8LK MA8SACKR BY CHIN1SF.

St. PerKBsntJBO, January 4.?The Semi-official Russian Agency aavs: The reply to the British inquiry on behalf o the Porte elated lhat the decisions and acts of the Imperial policy are still gmd( ed by two paramount considerations ol putting an end to the coimtantly recur ring disturbances and avoiding cotm.ten tionB by respecting the interests of llnru parties. Assurances satisfactory in the British Government and people were given concerning England's interests im mediately when they were made known These interests are no more menaced now than then, for although Ku?sm then re^ served thecontingency of beii'g compelled by military necessities to obtain pence under the walls of Constantinople, it de pends upon England to avert this con tingency by divesting the Porto of any il lusion respecting English support, it is evident that if the Porle has any ground to hope that the entry of the ltu-sinn* in I to Constantinople would caime England | to intervene, it would do everything to bring about that contingency by refusing any conditions of peace.
