It is ^ w ^ i $ S . & a few " sfeoft - inoSrths since Lord Clarendon aeelared th » £ he relied nipon the word of the Emperor , ^ he'fimperor declared

      that he intended to make no War upon Turkey ; to commit no territorial appropriation . It now appears that not only has he advanced his army in strong positions towards the inner frontier of Turkey—the Danube ; but that he has superseded the Hospodars , appointed commissioners to govern in their stead , seized the revenues ., and discharged the > aHegiatice of the Moldavians and Wallachians Jrom their lawful sovereign , the Sultan . Great

      pains have been taken in London as well as in other places , to represent that the Sclavonians . of Turkey were highly favourable to the Russian Government , and we may well understand that numbers of these races have been bought over ; but we are well aware also that the Sclavonians entertain projects of their own by no means dependent upon the intentions of the Czar , and that

      subserviency to Russia has not become a national feeling is shown by the coercive measures which hi * officers have found necessary to take . Some of the young Boyards who had signified their dWUke to the invader , have been seized and impressed into the service of the Russian army . It is natural that the Turks should resent these

      gross ontrage 8 upon their national independence and honour . They have been mustering in considerable n umbers , and they are anxious to attack the enemy . The proceedings of the Emperor are totally at variance with good faith « nd the usages otanarmi 8 Wce . t % have thrown discredit upon SriST ** i « " the Sultan by his Western wy mi turn or airaira Tni ., > c iA i - creased difficulty £ L , Vk ^ i ^ *"¦ '"" Saracens from a eW 72 1 ° ""^ ^ enemies .

      An anecdote has been afloat , and it reaches us , not for the first time , through a channel which appears worthy of credit . It is to this eifect : Lord Aberdeen caused Mr . Cobden to receive , an invitation to make a Peace movement in Parliament , and it is said that Mr . Cobden declined , on very intelligible grounds , —that if he succeeded , Lord Aberdeen would reap all the credit , but that if he failed , the Peace doctrine would incur all

      the discredit . Mr . Cobden ' s reply shows a due sense of the current of public feeling at present . Lord Aberdeen ' s invitation , if it is truly reported , shows a strong , and not a national , tendency in his own mind . For gossip of this kind we cannot vouch , but what we observe is , that our Government has been extraordinarily slow ; that it is awaiting the suggestion of Austria , —a power which would compromise any interest rather than take a decided position against Russia , or risk an European movement . We observe that our Government

      has carried forbearance to a point which we do not like to characterize j that it has counselled Turkey to forbear until that Power seems likely to have worn out the patience of its own subjects , and to risk its own existence . We observe that our Government , through all these phases , if not insincere , if not sharing in the delusions which have " been practised , has been the victim of them . both of

      The explanations given in Houses Parliament by Lord Clarendon and Lord John Russell , have been the most important subjects in EParliament ; for the record of the week is not particularly interesting . A fact indeed of corresponding importance is Sir James Graham ' s declaration , —very handsome in him to make and very useful to the country—that he was deceived in supposing that there was not sufficient

      getting on without let or hindrance , and amongst them it is especially incumbent upon us to notice the Royal assent to the abolition of the Advertisement duty . A number of Bills have been turned over to next session , with more or less of present assent to their principles , and a probability that they , or something like them , will come to pass before many years are over . Of this number are Mr . Adderley ' s Bill for the industrial correction of juvenile offenders , Lord Blandford ' s for placing episcopal and capitular property under the

      management of paid lay officers , to the great Velief of the present spiritual managers , and the great advantage of the property ; the Bishop of Oxford ' s Bill for the better regulation of the Church in the colonies , giving the members of the Church the faculty of self-government and establishing synods ; another Bill emanating from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners , to appoint missionary bishopsthat is to say , persons with episcopal authority over missionary clergy , where they have no territorial footing ; and in this class , too , may be reckoned Mr . Phinn ' s Bill to secure personal

      freedom to the inmates of religious houses . The Charitable Trusts bill proceeds with an amendment , exempting Boman Catholics from its operation . The bill would have brought under legal notice some trusts which , under the statute of superstitious uses , are strictly illegal . Lord John Russell proposed a general exemption : by an amendment of Mr . Headlam p s , the exemption is limited to two years j sufficient to allow time for enabling the Romanists to revise their own regulations , or to modify the statute if necesBary-The House of Lorda has lent its connivance to
