There is still @ very remove chance that the Pacific may nct be lost, although the delay of ner sppea-ance on one side of the Atlenwc or the other gives too mush ground for apprehension as to her fs'e, A sorresvonient whose letter appeared in our columne on Satarday lest, there‘ore argues that we ave pot a: prevent any right to estume the fact of a feial result, nor to reiac in our efforts for cerrying assistance to the wissing ship. The chances, he declares, in favor of the supposition thet ane is ptill afloat with disabled machinery, are not inconsi- deraple, and 80 we are bound to act a+ though this cn- tingency were an ascertained fact. Im the case of the T'ao.fic, happily, there is no neceemty for orga: ning costly expedition, or of despatching squadion after equadron uoon @ forlora hope to too dangers of a Northern Pole, Seaturing men appeer to agree in the conclusion that ifthe missing ship 1 above water at all abe must be sought for iu an area saffisicutly eiccum- scribed to render the p:ocess of investigation easy ond expedition, In the leiter to which we allude the prevailing theory as to tre pro- badle sitaation of the cific, if he be grill set forth with sufficient oiearnees, Tas writer presumes that the machinery of this nodie vessel may have given way some where about the Banks of Newfourdiand. {n connection with this provability two well ascertained facts must be taken into acsyant. The aret is that the steamer reiied mainly upon ner :texw Vat tl for her progress through the water. Sue had very ttle canvass, no bowsprit, sesreely suy head or after oll, The next certainty is, that at the seuson of the year woen she must have reacned the waters in ‘ee iu beavy westerly gales play over the surface of the A‘tu Against these it woul: be idle for ship to struggie an- Joss her sailing powers wore of a high order. tha prodabili- ties, then, are, that if the accident to the masninery oc: currod, as prevumed, the cavtain of the Pasific would week to regain the [rich coast.

At the proliminery Con- ferences of Constantinople the question of the Princi palt- tien was @edated, but nothing was seitied. The want of full instructions was pleated by the Ambassadors of France and Austria, and the matter was referred to the ‘onferences at Pacis. Shorily afver, the telegraph in- fermed the Porte that Lord Ciarendon, Count Orlotl, and their aescciates were debating on the union of t! provinces. This idea bad not been orought forward at the Constantineple Conference.
