TRT BLACK SEA DIFFICULTY. •
AT the close of the great Rrussian war,
in 1856, a treaty was entered into by the
several powers of Europe, stipulating that
the waters of; the Bleak Sea ehould be en-
tirely neutral..' This treaty was entered in-
to mainly for the protection Of Turkey
against Russian encroachments, and was ac-
ceded to by 'Russia, as a sort .of guarantee
for future pecefulibehaviour on her part.
'Since that time this treaty- or agr• eement
has held binding upon all European powers,
and its provisions.: have been scrupulosly
observed. Now, however, .it would seem
that Russia is again "spoiling for a fight,"
and is itching to lay forcible heads upon
part of Turkish territory-. So long as she
adhears to the proaisions of the treaty, this
. will be impossible and consequently the
Czar, through Price Gortschakoff, isstfes
it; circular to the various Etaropeon powers
which were parties to this treaty, stating th at it
is his intention hereafter to disregard ceetain
provisions of it, as he considers theft ura
justly and unnecessarily 'bear upon him:
Thus, as Russia has for some considerable
time been making active warlike prepara-
tions, it is -considered by this ecion that.
she is merely desirous of an excuse; to at-
tack and conquer Turkey. As .the, Treaty
was entered into by all the powers, mainly
for the protection of Turkey against such
onslaughts on the part of Russia, and as
she now .ennounces her, determination to
break throughit,it becomes the bounden
duty of Qin' these powers to back Turkey,.;
and force her would-be enemy to abide by
her old agreement, o else submit the mat-
ter to another co;nference Which will con-
sider the griekances of Itussia,, and if the
demands be reasonable; grant her what she
asks for. If her demands be net proper,
then bind her ante+ to adhere to whet .may
be considered right by all.
As Englaad is one of the principal par-
ties to this Treaty, and as dr will be one Of
the first called, upon by Turkey for assist-
ance,' Lord Granville, on behalf of the Brit-
ish government, has issued a circular in re-
ply to that of Prince Gorteehakoff, and ad-
dressed it to the British Ambassador at St.
Petersburg. In this circular Lord Gran-
ville exptesses his entire dissent from the
principles. laid down in the Russian circular,
and areaes that when a solemn compact is
made between different powers, no one of
these has the right to disregard or ignore
any of the provisions coatained in that COM -
pact, without the consent or . permissiou of
the other parties to it, and that the right
to ignore Any one of the provisions of the
compact implies the right to repudiate the
whole. After arguing the que§tion at
great length, and with much ability aid
reason, he concludes by saying :---" It is
impossible for Her Majesty's. government io
give any sanction on , their patt, to the
coarse announced by Prince Gortschakoff."
It was for a etime generally considered
and hoped, that When the autocrat of .Rus-
sia found England was detettninecl not
to allow him to ruthlessly violate the con-
ditions of the treaty, at his will, that he
would ,draw in his horns, and agree to sube
mit his grievances to another conference,
and bind himself to abide by the decision
whatever it might be. It -would-new seem,
however,- that this hope is pot to be realiz-
ed, as it is reported that he has again de-
clared his intention to carry- out his former
designs. Now, unless either party backs
down from the strong position whit& it has
taken, we cannot see, how another fearful
war is to be averted. If it be true that
Russia has again assetted her determination
to pursue the course which she had marked
out for herself, it can hardly be • supposed
that she will humiliate and disgrace herself
by retracting. On the .other hand, notwith-
standing that the peace party in England
express their determination to do all in
their power to avert war, it is scarcely pos-
sible that that powerful nation will, in the
face of such an enemy, display the white
feather, and abandon those *he has pledged
-
y
herself to piotect, to the tender mercies of a
merciless tid. tyranical epemy. :
Should this trouble npfortunately 1 td to
war, it is not, we think, ;difficult to p edict
the result.' Althoughe ports are c rrent
that;Russia and Prussia re secretly le gued
together for the purpose of furth rine the
interests of the'former iii this ma ter, yet
Prussia, as ia well knosrn, hasi alr ady her

The workmen at Le Creuzot, -famoua', in
the past for qieir strikes and turbulence,
have sent eight hundred pfleir numbeeeas
a deputatiPn to Garibaldi off ring to devete
themselves! either to fighting under his or-
ders or to Manufacturing guns for the trotips.
Garibaldi ras shown his old dislike for the
priests by a1rning_thern out of 'their sell -
nary at A tun and sending home their Pu-
pils. There are repors of several military
movementin the despatches this morning,
but of no operations ot a decisive character.
General Paladines, who commands the ArMy
of the Lpire, Jately successful in drieting
Von de Tann.'s forces from Orleans, IS, lit IIS
said, concentrating tioops near Toury,i th
the north of Orleans,on the line of railread
running from the latter. city to Paris, arid
where, a World's telegram says, the Wee

remains of Von der Tann's army and other
troops. Tie object of Paladines apeeare to
whelm the Duke before further re-inforcie-
;

be to gath eup a sufficient force to -oter-
meats reach him. Prince Frederiek Chaeles
is repotted to be pushing forward evestwtsrd
fromiTroYes to the Duke's assistance, and
the French are doing what they can tc
pede the Prince's progress. At Berlin hopes
pf peace seem, for the resent, to, be given
up, and the blame is thrown on.,the Proi
ional Government, "national defence" beeng,
it is declarecle only -synonymous with "Ina-

residence of Louis Napoleon, and where; in
the years 1832-5 he wrote several works,—
amongst others, his Reveries Politiques,—is
being prepared for his future residence.

The repeits do not state that any move-
ments of great significance have taken place
in the provinces: The French generals apa
pear to be drilling their troops and awaituig

SATURDAY.
A despatch from KingWilliam states t at
the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schw rm.

'has reprised the French at Dreux, and ap-
tuned that town. This is no doubt in con-
nection with the Prussian movements de-
signed to check the furthei operations of he
Army Of the Loire. On the other han A
despatch to the World „gives a very circ m-
'stantial account of a rapid 'forwardm ve-
ment of Gen. Paladines, commanding he
Army of the Loire, which compelled be
Prussians at -Toury to retreat rapidly, nd
enabled Paladines to gain a point twe ty-
two )iiilee south of Versailles, thus in a
posing his forces between the Duke of
Mecklenburg -Schwerin and Paris. At the
same time it is stated that the army of Prince
Fredeiick Charles advancing westward from

support the forces th5,eatened by Paladines.
MONDAY.
A despatch from Tours admits the repulse
lot a French force at Drenx, which was ye-
ferred to in Friday's telegrams as having
been effected by the troops under the cern

pear from t is that the French commander
may have p aced himself in some jeopard r

and run_ th 'risk of being attacked sirnultat
neously on ooth fleas. H his army great y.
ouenumbere his opponents, he might per-
haps be just fied in encountering the ris4t1
but the stet ments as to the numbers ander
him are no oubt much exaggerated. The
story that t ey amount re) 250,000 men;
with a daily increase, must be a fiction=
the ci eation. of some too sanguine correspon-
dents The rumour comes from Tours that
his army ha. met with a disaster, but no

the French generals to unite 'the- force e of

this grand army af 265,000 men (I) make a
bold stroke for the relief of Paris. The wri-

to the restorktion of Napoleon to power as

len Emperor is also mentioned in connection
with a,scatement that he has written to the

gram fron Tours—rather .questionable an-
thor1ty—tI have been 'raging for five hours
near Nantes,; bet een ,a band of Francs-

and a regimeat of Prussians. The result was
indecisive. The Francs-Tirettrs are also cre-
dited. with defeating the 1Thlaias: with con-
siderable 'loss in several small actions, but
prcib4bly the other side would as well claim
a yietory. A detachment of IThlans has, it
is said, ben driven into Belgium, where, of
course, they had all to surrender. The latest
'balloon news froni Paris, to Monday last,
