(Cheers.) After some remarks from the irl of Ellenborough, Earl of Hardwicke, Earl Fitzwilliam and others, ‘The Earl of CLarenpon said, as my noble friend has given notice of his intention on a future day to call your lordships’ attention to the state of ne- gotiations, and to move for a copy of the treat; ately concluded between Austria and the Porte, and in which I think it neces- ence to that pire fi id be set right. My noble friend sary that he shoul 14th of June, after the siege of Silistria was raised, and the Russians were in full retreat. It is quite true, I believe, that the treaty in question was con- cluded on the lith of June; but at that time, so far from the Russians being in full retreat, the siege was never so actively carricd on, or with so great hopes on their part of a snocess- ful termination to it. It was not until the 23d of June that, owing to the valor of the Tarks —to which my noble friend has paid<nothing but | the siege was raised and the Russians were in full ratified, and it is only in consequence of our not has not been laid before Parliament; the greatest importance and interest to this coua- made in the Orient may succeed; but that success, bowever gained, must a privileges to the Chris- tian inhabitants, who for four centaries have been | | invoking, on their knees, Divine Providence, for | their liberation. \ | _ (Here follows a copy (in Greek) of Mr. De Leon’s | despatch) (From the Osservatore Sriestino, (in Italian) Trieste, May 27, 1864.) We sre requested to insert the following article from letters just received from the port of Alexan- dria, of the date of 18th May:— | After speaking of the long residence and impor- tant services of that “Greek Colony in Egypt,” the writer goes on— | Isit not, therefore, almost incredible that under | these circumstances the Egyptian government ) shonid have exercised towards the Greek subjects barbarities, which would scem as though the days of the fierce and bloody Jacizaries had retaraed They commenced by arresting Pasqua, the first dra- goman of the Greek Consulate, ough protected by hiseficial character—and threatened to arrest tLe Consul-General himself.

(Hesr.) For Austria, it must be remembered, has already de- | clared that the course which France and England bave pursued in summoning Russia to evacuate the Principalities, and in carrying out that summons to its legitimate consequences, was reasonable and | justifiable; she has declared that the evacuation of the Principalities and the freedom of the Danube affect not only Austria, but the whole of Germany; and she has declared, too, with England and France, that it is neceesary to deyise some tneans of includ- ing Turkey in the general aystem of Euro ve—which means that Turkey is to be freed from her onerous engagements to Russia, and from the wrongfal in- terpretation of her treaties with that Power. (Hear.) Anstria has also herself summoned Russia to evacuate the Principalities, and lastly, at a great expense—at an expense which she is vi ijl able to bear—she has organized and ped one of the largest and finest armies ich I believe has ever been seen in modern times. w As | con be blind to her own most urgent and, I | | | forbearance has been | subject.

I will not, of course, notice in thi House, the various criticisms which bave been made with respect to the operations of our fleets and ar- mies. As I bave already remarked, iplayed on this ter, in spite of and in contravention, it might be, of their own government. The object of the Powers ia, on the cont that the Sultan, having acknowledg- ed, as he has « ne, and bape Denman by solemn acts the privileges of his C! n subjects, should be admitted to form a part of our general system— sbould govern h’s own people with those sovereign rights which belong to sovereigaty in itself—and, forming part of that general m, should not look for protection solely to Russia, but to the Powers of Europe, to maintain him as other States of Europe are maintained in their farce (Hear, hear.) Such being the answer that the Emperor of Russia has gtyen, the government of Austria—which had informed us what they were going to do im case of three things—namely, the reply feing affirmative, or negative, or evasive—have considered that re- ly as evasive, and have asked the governments of Geng and France to communicate to them what is their opinion of the Pd that has thus been but just commenced, and no pergon acquainted with naval and military operations would agree in the remarks which have been made depreciatory of the conduct of either our admirals or generals. It is, however, impossible not to notice in this place that, while our exerticns have been directed to mak- | ing preparations for war, the ally we went to succour last year, HM represented that if we went to the assistance of ‘urkey we should be extending useless aid to a de- caying State—that we shonid be seeking to prop an | made. I have omitted to state that not only does empire already fallen; and, to refer % the cane the Em of Ruseia require that “4 and France should be parties to any agreement by which Feree of a foreigh Minister—a Minister of the | peror of Russia—it was said, no longer ago | than August last that it required but a fillip from | the Emperor cf Russia to overthrow the whole Otto- | the Principalities should be evacuated, but that an armistice PRU be.made, and thay we should not, by our troops or fleets in the Black Sea, or, I sup ser the Baltic, attack his troops ‘or his wi ever, we find that the Emperor of Russia having oceu- | flee! he is e the Principalities. ied the Principalities, st first with only a small | Well, eee to such a proposal cannot admitthat force, and havibg devoted a whoie year to prepara. | that answer of the Em) of Rassia hers affords any grounds for peace.

(Renewed cheering.) With regard to Anstria and the pait which she may take when she knows our answer, all I can say is this:—That although she might be mistaken a9 to her policy— although I think she has been mistaken in not join- ing sooner and more frankly with the Western tions, with the avowed intention of commencing the | campaign in the month of May of the present year, with the siege and capture of Silistria, the Russian | army which crossed the Danube for that purpose, (whose numbers, though not at first Tepe with | 80,000,) has | valor have been performed worthy of comparison Turkey.

(Hear, conceive that by those declarations and by ments Austria will be bonnd to take part in the attempt to drive back Russia from the unjust aggression which she has committed. Whether she may, with that hesitation and delay which have been unfortunately prolonged too long, attempt again to obtain from St. Pete-sburg some better and some more satisfactory assurance I am unable to say. We have nocontrol, of course, over the councils of the Emperor of Austria. With regard © their policy, as I have said, I have no doubt ; neither have I any doubt that she will-ho1 fatal her engagement; but, with different circu <urrounding her, with buta half-and-aalf support ‘som the kingdom of Prussia—(hear hear)—whether the may not think it necessary to attempt once more so abtain @ favorable answer to her representations 1 caynot say. I bave stated thus much in order that the House may be in possession of the facts of the case go far as I could tell them; snd I am now sta- ving pot ouly matters which have taken place very recently, but I am referring also to that which we propoge todo. There has not ve been any formal alliance against the Russian aggression on Turkey, yet the wars in which the two natious had so fre- | quently been en, d must have engendered such a | feeling of bitter hostility between them as would revent any cordial mutual co-operation of the 'rench and English either by landor sea.

From the time of the Empress Catherine the same course of policy has been pursued by her. It was a course which, at every ier of peace, gave to Russia increased territory. The treaty of Kainar- so we not say secured, but stipulatedfor the independence of the Crimea. Following treaties of succeeding wars made the Crimea a Russian pro- vince. Bessarabia was added lately ; and the com- lete command of the Danube, in such a manner bat Russia has been able to impede and obstruct the navigation of that river, has followed the trea- ty of Adrianople. (Hear, hear.) At each step she has threatenea Turkey. She has kept Torkey in that state that, without giving immediate alarm to Enrope, she could dictate at Constantinople. Late years have seen a considerable change in the g>vern- ment of Turkey. I will not say that the change hea extended to all ita inferior pashas and governors; but the government of Turkey have seen that there are new and improved modes of government, con- sisting in dispensing equal justice to all her subject, whatever might be the: igion,and which might make Turkey stronger as a power than she had ever been while her strength rested upon the ascendancy of the Mahomedan race, and the subjugation and de- gradation of Age other race.

Who can doubt that her final object must be al ol mu Sion ot the Ottoman empire, and the al of a great portion of that empire in her own dominions, while the other portion, no- minally independent, would be ee gare in fact, be cm ber influence and authority?
