Where our abuses have been permitted to remain unrectified, witheut proper satisfac. tion being given te our citizens, it haa, in nine eut of ten cases, been the fault of our representative. Even if the interior States of the European continent, and in parti- oular the numerous German ones, do not permit our go- verument to enforce the rights due to our citizens by means of the cannom of our wooden walls, still the res- pect which our people in general command will at all times be sufficiemt to prevent and cerrect abuses com mitted om our citizens if we have only the right kind of represemtatives—those who, neither asking mor subimii- ‘ting to anything wrong, will personally insure that con sideration which we as a powerful nation have a right to expect from all geverninents, no matter how remote the mame may be from the gunshots of oar ships of war. The doctrine of rotation in office, although at home the main pillar ef eur institutions, ought, therefore, not al: ways be carried out with the foreign appointments, particularly in those countries where we cannot go with eur but where the moral influence ef our minis ter, charge er consul, must be the chief lever. ‘We cannot be represented by ministers and charge: at ‘the many Burepean internal courts; Germany alone has thirty-four sovereign States, of which in two only we have diplomatic representatives, and in all the other ones ‘consuls have to take care of our national interests. The Great majority of these Stutes, like many others in the wer do not afford an income sufficient to secure repre- rentatives a living. In most cases the income will barely dofray the expenses pertaining te the office, thus mak- ing most of our consulates in the interior mere pests of honor, to which the rule of rotation can only be applied at the expense of usefulness. For such consuls it will always take some years to acquire, by personal consider- Atlen, that standing necessary to afford protection to our citizens com within their district. Such a personal consideration the consul can only acquire if he is able to live sufficiently independent, and in a way to have social intercourse with those classes composing im his district the government officials. In Germany, for example, be oe 59 means of nrnging in business or trade without all official infloeuce.

At Hamburg and Bremen merchant's clerks are paid better, and at all the other places the in- come will not pay for house rent. Still, as in the case with Manheim ani Stuttgardt, political men will be re- warded with such consulates, who accept them, as many do, under the delusion of being able to make something out of thom, im which they will be sorely disappointed. ‘And at the same time the dignity of the office will have itizens who may come that . t sularied consola so long will it be difficult for our government to remedy this evil.

The position of the Turkish question remains, as to facts, precisely where it did. ‘the ‘only itional fact, if fact it is, is contained in wate letter from Vienna, dated September 12, stating ‘the members of the conference bad reassembled, and that the best understanding subsisted between them, ‘that a frosh note had been prepared by them, which is eouched in the most conciliatory language, and is calew ated to be accepted by the contending parties. Meantime, (says a London payer,) it cannot be concealed that the of events is rapidly tending to remove the caso ft course from the aphere of negotiation, and to plunge at least two States of Burepe into all the calamities of war. The Tarkish army is daily increasing in mumerical strength, and the character ofthese troops is such as to destroy, in great measure, the control which every government should possens over its soldiers. The force under Omer Pasha ia constituted mainly of wild and ferocious tribes of whe have swarmed across the Straits in defence of their religion and in the hopes of battle; and it is doubt- ful whetkar they would endure what, to them, would be the disa| tof pence.

NEGOTIATIONS. [From the London Times, Sept. 20.] The Turkish question has plainly become & question of words, The Czar preferred certain demands upon the Sultan, touching a species of protectorate whicl he might be authorized to exercise with regard to the Greok Chris- tian subjects of the Porte. The Sultan rejected these de. nda, as involving concessions incompatible with the sovereign independence of his own government, on which the Cear, to enforce compliance, forcibly possessed hitaself of the Danubian principalities as a “material guarantee" for the surrender he required. These proceedings brought the other Powers of Europe on the acene. ad and France despatched their fleets to the mouth of the Darda- nelles, and their representatives immediately met thove of Austria and Prussia in conference at Vienna. All those movements were made exclusively, as between the con. tending‘ parties, in the interest of Turkey. The peace of Kurope and the preservation of political equilibrium, were, of course, objects of paramount importance ; but, as re: garded the respective claims of Turkey and Russia, the in- tervention of the great Powers could have no views which were not favorable to the former. Not only could there be no desire of coercing the Ottoman government, but there was no occasion for such action. If Russia had any rights, she was unquestionably competent to enforce them herself, and might have been left to the management of her own affairs. It ix perfectly plain from these proceedings that the de- mands of Russia were thought unjustifiable by the other great Powers, and that they intecposed for the direct pur- pase of protecting Turkey against @ coercion with which she was menaced. If the case, indeed, were not clear i nature, all the requisite elucidation would plied by the notes which have been published om the subject. ‘The governments of France aad England have declared with the utinost distinctness, and in lan- age as strong as diplomatic proprieties allow, that the jussian demands were absolutely incompatible with the sovereign rights of the Sultan, snd that the occupation of the Danubian Prineipalities by the Czar was such am infraction of public law a+ constituted a just cause of war. These being the facts, and this being the known opinion Of the mediators, the’ four Powers in conference drew up &@ note which they conceived to obviate all the hazards impending. Whether the terms of thia document were liable to fhisconstruction may be a question of itself, but two points are unimpeachably clear—tirst, that the four Powers intended to maintain the territorial and adminis- trative rights of the Porte; and, next, that in the event of dispute they would have been bound by this intention. It was this circumstance which imparted an injudicious character to the modifications which the Porte attempted to supply. It ix highly probable that these modifications expressed nothing md what the conference had al- ready proposed to itself in framing its original note; in- deed, we may assume as much from the assent which was given to the Turkish suggestious. By the adoption, or at any rate the approval of these suggestions, the four Pow- ers practically identified these views with their own, and thus furnished an additions! proof, if any could be need- ed, of their true concern for the interests of the Porte. But it must be evident that all the securities which Tur- key could really obtain ‘wero already comprised in the note of the conference, for ber security depended wpon the resolutions of the four Powers, and these resolutions had been put on record by themselves. Let us take the ex- treme case of supposing that after the acgeptauce, pure simple, of the original Vieuna note, the Czar should, at some time or other, have availed ‘himself of those | i , 48 distinguished from the propositions of the Porte ‘itself, is thought to have provided him. He would then have interfered in the internal administration of the Ottoman domi- nions to the prejudice of the Sultan's sovereignty. ‘The Sultan would have protested, and a case would have arisen for the application of the adjustment of 188%—that is to say, the parties to the note, or the four great Powers, would have been called up tosay whether they did or did not intend by this in- strument that the Czar should exercise the particular au- thority he had assumed. If they did not, they would have interposed in discharge of their own guarantee in the sense they themselves affixed to it; so that the note, whether ambiguous or not, would bave been, at say rate sufficiently perspicnous for its proper purpose. ‘The biguity, if any, would merely have misled the Emperor of and Would neither have damaged Turkey nor dis the four Powers. : is thus as clear as facts can make it, that the ques tion between the two notes, one of which was accep! { by Russia and the other rofused, is a question of words only, for the intent and «pirit of the instruments, ac- cording to the views of the conference, were in both cases identical. The four Powers showed by their ap- proval of the Turkish modifications that they believed them to coincide with their own proposals. The Emperor of Russia, in rejecting them, demurred, not unreason- ally, to the position assnmed by the Porte; but, in so far as he objects to their substance, or, in other words, to the security which they provide’ against his own Agcresions, he objects to thi note of the conference also. he four Powers in conference did not makes division of | the Qttoman supremacy, and allot a certain portion, but no more, to the Emperor of Russia ; they designed to’ pre- serve this inviolate for the Sultan, and directed their ad justments and compromises to such punctilios of mational or imperial “honor’’ as no sonable mea would wish to wee disregarded.

Now that you are going to recommence your ordinary labors, I may re- {the assurance that I continue to entertain’ th? most riendly relations with the other Powers. During the past months T have received proofs of interest which I ighly appreciate. © pacific policy followed by govornment gives it every opportunity not to. neglect anything for the extension of free commercial relations between the Netherlands aud other States. The naval and military forces still continue to perform their duties ina satisfactory manner, so far as their limited means admit, Our naval fercesare seen in various seas, thus aiding to establish our relations and to protect our na- tional flag and navigation. 3 shows more and more the necessity of extendii ceuiyres and oxer isea of the army, on the one hand, by keeping the mili- tia a longer time under arma, and on'the other, by uniting the forces together. The position of the colonies and the government porveasions in the other parte of the world is geuerally satisfactery. The tranquillity of the interior of the island of Sumatia has beon disturbed, but it has been restored by trifling efforts on the part of our forces. In the same way, also, we may trust that an end will soon be put to the renewed troubles of the Chinese in Borneo. I deplore the frightful ravages caused by the earth- vake and the action of the sea in the Malacca islands, From the measures taken by the government, and the as- sistance of the public, this calainity has been considera- bly lessened. \¢ great works undertaken for the improvement of our personage, but thot he waits for the revelution to extend eters eid easeepsntion ta coogalan of the empire. . Accounts extend te June 13, All was quiet there, but alarm was felt reapeoting imsurrectlouary meve- ments in the ne . Opium vessels, which here- tofore had never been allowed to ge up to the city, were now encouraged by the Mandarins to approach, and the pro- sent state of things rendered opium veritably a free arti- cle of commerce. At Shangbae, June 9, reports ate on the contrary, that en accoun' of the unsettled state of the interior, and consequent difliculty of transit, the de- mand and price of opium were seriously diminishing, The Taoutae of Shanghae was olfering all the induce- ments he could to man his fleet by deserters from forei ships. Ameng others he had enticed away nine of the crew of tho British war-steamer Salamander, in conse- quence of which the commander of tho British war-steam- r Hermes had notified the Taoutae that his fleet, now ly- ing near Chin-Kiang, would not be allowed to leave until these men were given up. Interpreter Meadows had been permitted by the Tuoutao te go up the Yang-tse-kia river in search of deserters, and reports that the greates| apathy seeued to prevail in the Imperial cainp, while insurgents under Gen. 1oo were all activity and enthusi- arm. Latest advices from Shanghac, July 11th, state that the insurgents were marching a large force to the west and north, and had taken one or two cities in those directions. It was concluded that it was their intention at once to pre- eeed to Pekin, but there was much uncertainty in all re- rts as to their movements. No important advantages ad been recently gained by either party. From Foochow, advices of June 29th reported the city im a state of riot and confusion, and martial law strictly eu- forced. A mob having collected to plunder the banks, the Tartar troops were called out, and several of the ringleaders were beheaded on the spot. This rostered quietness, and a proclamation was subsequently issued giving liberty to ‘ill any person found committing theft, At Yeu-ping-foo there was fighting going on. All com- munication was stopped, and it was difficult to arrive at the truth of the flying reports. Two ships, charterod by principal rivers continue to be actively carried on. The présent results are highly satisfactory, Agriculture, maxu- factures and industry are ina favorable condition. The spirit of enterprize developes itself more and inore among the people, inducing them to give their attention to va: # new enterprises, by which the communications by sea and land will be much augmented, and whggh will give to agriculture new territories to cultivate. Where the general interest requires it the efforts of the Fegple are supported by the goverment. The works for comnecting the Netherlands with the neighboring States extend more and more. railways alredy conceded approach completion. Applications fo: new concessions are encouraged ay far as posible. electro magnetic telegraph lines are increased tinually improved. The lately completed line to England, undertaken by private individuals, is of the highast in: terest for our commerce. In rejeicing at the great anccess of the magnificent enterprise of draining the Haarlem Lake, we may also bo gratified at the successful aalo of tie redeemed land. So far as an opinion can be formed on the partial re- ports received, the harvest can only be reckoned an average one. Although the uneasiness caused lately by this state of things svems to have been somewhat exagger- ated by some people, Lhave, however, taken measures te suppress the very trifling impediments which opposed the free importation of the principal articles of food. Commerce, navigation, and shipbuilding are all prospering this year. These branches of the public wel- fare continue to increase. The finances of the countr; are in an equally desirable position. ‘The hopes ‘which we had of the favorable issue of the service of last year have net proved fallacions. We have every reason to ex- Peet that the present service will be alto satisfactory. nforeseen circumstances have prevented the entire com: pletion of the laws for reducing taxation. New proposi- tions for the reduction of the national debt will soon be submitted to your deliberation. - 2 ‘Thin session will, ay I trust, and as it ia the serious sire of my government that ‘it should, afford the epper- tunity of settling important legislative questions.

The eapture of Nan- clang, the principal city in the Kiangsi province, is -on- firmed.

There ha: been much activity in shipments of tea, at advance: rates, since the arrival of the mail of 24th May, but the supply from the interior was slackening. At 'Sharghae goods were unsaleable; the stocks and arrivals due exceeded a year’s supply. Several of the British merchants of Shan- ‘hae had presented a memorial to the Plenipotentiary and Superintendent of Trade, to suspend tho payment of daties during these troublous times, The petition was refused. ‘The Ilenipotentiary, Sir George Bonham, gives the peti- tioners this significant hint:—‘In closing this communi- joa, his Excellency would remind you that he is not aware that the eitizens of America, or the subjects of any foreign State, have obtained’ any particular aid to dificulties of which you complian.”” By orders of Hon, Mr. Marshall, U. 8.

We have accounts from that market to the 9th inst. It is knowa that the rebels have greatly strengthened the com- manding position which they hold, and it is reported ad generally believed, they laws pushed a considerable art of their forces further to the north, and that they are not likely to delay longer than the termination of the hot weather pushing towards Pekin.

Further than issuing proclamations the Impe- That which would have been expected to have called forth their utmost energies—the losing the second capital of the empire— seems to have made no change in the imbecile conduct which they have throughout displayed, from which it may be judged that they are wanting in power to show eflective opposition to the rebel leaders and their forces. Amoy still continues in the possession of the insurgents, by whom it was taken; and although these men have neither the ability nor the means st their command pos- sessed by the insurgents in the North, the imperialist troops have failed in their endeavors to reposses them- selves of the city. Canton still remains quiet, but from the disaffected feelings of the people in and around it, it would be no matter of surprise were the people of the city to rise up and drive out the present authorities. It appears cleat that many years will elapse before the country isagain brought into a state of quietude, and until that is done trade will doubtless be conducted en & most precarious and dangerous footing.
