They are all, , therefoie, in a terrible hurry to patch up this Turco-Greek business before it grows into wide dimensions. The Journal Qffleiel (the new lfuniour) tells us that "all the Powers" are "at nimaue” to hold &Conference, and what is more important, to stick to the single point at issue; Lbat is, the quarrel between Turkey and Greeoe which has arisen out of the Cretan insurrec ion. The Conference is as good as announced o meet on the 9th of this month, and 1 venture once more to predict that the result of its deck -ion will, in fact, amount to this: Greece will be admonished to keep herself quiet, and not bring Lax big friends into trouble by her filibustering propensities. Turkey will be advised to treat her Christian subjects better, so as not to afford a pretence for intermeddling with them, either to Greeee or another and very different Pottier. Ninalls, both parties will receive a significant hint ihat they will Lot les allowed to proceed to ex tremities which may involve their neighbors. And thus, having at least "smoothed down the diffieulty," as Napoleon says, if not exaetly • •Eettlee" the Turco-Greek question, the Con ,crence will dismiss the disputants with an im perative rather than benevolent Paz robiscum: There is one point in the above business which is noticeable; and that is, the leading part taken in it by Prussia. The French official journal it eat' attributes to Prussia the first proposal of a Conference, which the Emperor's • government only accepted and supported. Pinola Ia evi. ern tly bent upon maintaining the lead she-has acquired by recent events. The old French Muni 't ur remarks bitterly that "at Berlin they evi dently consider themselves the arbiters, of the &stinks of Europe;" and this feeling may one day, no doubt, bring about a conflict of very eff erent dimensions from the Turco-Greek quarrel. In his reply to the Corps Legislatif the Em peror stems to hold out the expectation of a I rather enlargement of the public liberties. This is a sign of the times, and that Napoleon is aware of the rising aspirations of the .country, and the danger of continuing to resist and disappoint them. The rising generation of Frenchmen are ueginning to suspect and believe that the long 1. remised "crowning of the edifice" has, thus far, proved only a mockery and a snare; and the con quenee of this, combined with the numberless wietakes committed in policy and iintince,,has eels that loss of popularity and prestige which I cave of late so often pointed out. Indeed, somehow or other, the Administration is never happy jos; now in its action, and is al ways getting into a mess, in small things as well as great. For instance, it has managed, clues ally and awkwardly, to put an end, at least in came, to so long standing and thoroughly im perial an institution as the old French Moniteur. No such paper now exists, but is replaced by the new and untraditional title of Journal Officiel. the old Afouiteur was founded in 1789, and just ten years after that date was made the register of the official acts of the government in its unofficial portion, by the First Consul, at the very outset of his career. The paper was, therefore, closely connected with his name and fame. This alliance of sixty years standing has °ten unwisely ruptured by al. Ronher, the Mlll - of State, partly through his arbitrary inter ference with the non-official and purely commer cial part of the newspaper, partly by the terms be sought to impose for the official publications. The consequence was the transfer of the latter to other parties, who undertook to found a now journal for the purpoee. By Ministerial decree, Si. Rouher announced that the new journal would be called the Moniteur OlJicied , in distinction to the present Moniteur Universe!. But the proprietors of the latter considered that the title, oeife.niteur, generally, belonged to them, us an exclusive right, and brought an action oi prohibition against the new publishers. This ac tion the Tribunal of Commerce decided in their favor, by a most remarkable judgment, delivered only en the 281.0, of. December last. Nothing could be more awkward; for the new, journal. with all the official acts• of the new year, was butane to appear on the let of January. Great was the, distress of the Ministry of State. An appeal was lodged immediately, and the first Chamber of the Cour Imperial° sum moned specially to hear this cause, as being "ur gent," on Thursday; the 91st Deceinher, a day on *hick it never usually sits. But twenty-four hours brought reflection. M. Routier recou siderededonbeess, the stringest terms of the first judgment, and saw he had no chance of upsetting it. So he decided to knock under. Another ministerial decree was Issued, somewhat foolishly worded, in which it was said that "it could no, possibly. matter to the Administration whether its, journal was called Moniteur or not," and fixing its title simply as Jourhad Officiel• But,isyslhe old_Monifeter slily enough next day, "if, M. &rubor, you did not ewe for our names why did you force us to bring an action, wait until we had obtained a decision la our favor, in geribe your appeal d'urgerree, summon the Cour ImpErisle for a special andlence,and onlY give in at bet when you found you hied no chancel.'" In short, M. Rouher has (like hia master often o late) cut a very poor figure in the abovelrans setters., and concluded it only by quenehlegithat isM'atrpl was really one of the' great traditions of the First Empire: Le ifenitear :Journal OfNiel de rEnipire Francais, ever sines 1799.

Evades' Indletitul Plattntsvono, Jan. 19th.--Quite , a .number o • Philadelphians are here urging the passage of the bill extelf ding the term of-ellce-= of-Mr. Peitz; iThere appears to be no longer any doubt 'Of its ' +final success. There is ,'decided feeling `among the country members'against the political : bwi that Philadelphia'methbers are constantly bring , tugton up , tas there are more , good reasons given _ for the passage of th is bill than are generally of • fetid, lila probable that it will go through •as, loony measure. - • • Some forty or fifty persons came down' today , from the section of coup try in which John Scott resides, for the purpose of witnessing the pro , cerdings incident to his election to ,the United • litotes ;Senate. They were all, of course; delighted with the . reault, but were considerably annoyed at an' editorial 'rellecting on the canctidate which appeared on Monday in one of :put evening con temporaries. It is melees to deny that Mr. Scott is the choice of a large majority of the Legisla ture, even when some of the means by which his buecesa Was attained are considered, and their choice has been endorsed by the Republican Jour- Dahl of the State, with a few exc, pitons. it is truly a - pity that so good a man should fled his Senatorial career blurred at the beginning by whispers of corruption, which, if they have any foundation s have been caused by the acts of others, and Lot by his own; for rest assured, if any undue influences were brought to beat, he had nothing to do with them. Some of the opponents of the Metropolitan Police bill introduced into the Legislature by Mr. Irlenszey will endeavor to effect the same object in stonier way—by passing a supplement to the consolidation act, which will so change the phraseoloay that the Councils can have the power o perform all the duties now sought to be cot:t imed on five Commissioners. They say that the iorty-steond section authorizes and directs Conn cike to organize a Police Department, and that the ninth section gives the power to the Mayor to eominate, and by and with the advice and con tent o the Select Council, appoint the polleoaden; that, therefore, all that Is necessary is ior the Legislature to amend section 9th so as to take the power from the . Mayor, and , the desired end is accomplished. The friends of Mr. Rens zey'e bill can say whether this 18 true or not. bat my impression is that Mayor Fox would veto any ordinance passed by Councils providing for changes in the police system, unless lie was allowed to retain the appointing power; and if he is to do that, there is no necessity for any change. AlreadY a number of persons have been inset ting Senators and Representatives for their signa tures to petitions, among them some who desire te semi.) all the names possible recommending them to ()Moe under ; Gen.

PENINSULA. Of the new Senator, Thomas F. Bayard, Wilmington Commemal says. . "Thomas F: Bayard, chosen today, to be the United States Senator from this State for six years frolinMarch ith, Is a lawyer, native of and residing id thiseity. He is now 'about 40 years of age. His education was mainly obtained at the famous private school of Rev. Dr. Hawks, at Flushing, Long Island. His early training was for a mercantile career, and after leaving school, he was for some three years in the couting house of S. Morris Wain Co., shipping'mer chants In Philadelphia. 'Upon the death of his elder brother, James A. Bayard, Jr., he commenced the study of law in lals - father's office, and was in due time admiv- Led to the bar. Soon after, he located in Phila delphia, to practice his Profession, bat after a year or eighteen months, returned to Wilmiug ton. Be was appointed U. S.

"Personally, Mr. B. is an active, energetic and diligent lawyer. lie will make a more service able lenator, in many practical matters, than.his a tberond will be very probably a valuable mem ber of the Senate for &Ides not political. In the latter respect he will differ most distinctly from the great body of the Senate, his education and habits of thought being all of the ultra Southern States Rights character, and entirely opposed to the great progressive movement which the Re• public Is irresistibly making."
