Tho Turks suffered terribly m this war.. In 17C9, in little more than a fort night, they lost 28.000 of tbeir-best troops in a raih attempt to cross the N.ester; jhen the Russians overrun Moldavia and Walluohia. Two years later tho cause of Turkey became well nigh desperate. ■ Her armies were ent up hor ribly.- -At length, when disorder, mutiny, and dismay were seen .ia all the Turkish armies, to suoh a degree that they refused to maroh against their enemies, 1 peace was couoluded in 1774. , Th'm was the peace of Kiauardgi, made at an era- of huge national crime. This peace was dic tated by Catharine. It 1, made the Crimea and -Cuban independent under their khan 1 2,- restor ed to the Porte tho conquests made in Moldavia and Wallachia; 8, gavo to Russia Azoph, Kin dornJennikalo, Kertoh and Cabardia—a'firm footing in the Black Sea; 4, openod the Black I Sea, and all Turkish seas to free commerce; 6, Turkey promised protection to Greek Christians, and Kuesm obtainedßemission to build a Greek churchm Turkey, ft is these last stipulations that constitute ihe.basis of the Russian demand of to-day.. This is one of tho most remarkable treaties of modern times.; It substantially placed the Ottoman empire at the mercy of tho court of Russia. The moral effect of this result was immense; it revealed to Russia her strength, and demonstrated all that she needed to make her all-powerful was efficient internal organization. Catharine sot herself abont this, and the new di vision into governments, making this empire a camp groand, followed. At this time Baron Thu gut was the Austrian envoy at Constantinople. In a despatch addressed to his court, (dated Sept. 3, 1776) he accurately predicted the consequen ces of this treaty, especially those of the artful clause relative to the protective right of Russia as to the Greek Cburoh. The last number of the North British Review regards the political prediction of the Baron as to the facility the new Russian, ports would offer in a capture of Con stantinople to have been remarkable. This has boon long predicted, and is as clearly remarked in tho Mercury of 1796 aa it is in Thugnt’s des patch of 1774. The latter well remarked (1774) as follows: « The most dangerous and difficult part of all this business is that the existence of tho Porte appears henceforward to .depend on the will of other courts. As-soon as the works which aro to bo erected in the now Russian establishments shtdl be completed, wo may expect any day the cap'turo of Constantinople by the Russians.” FROM 177 i TO TCER PiIACR OF JASSET, 3782. The disgraceful peace of Kiarardgi, dictated as it was by Russia, was the presage of speedy revival of war. Catharine’s ambition grew with the organization of her empire. Her leading pro ject was dominion on the Blaek. Sea, and as ne cessary tothisthe possession of the Crimea; and she aimod.at the partition of Turkey as she did that of Poland, and to raise on tho rains of the Ottoman Empire a Greek nation; with tho Grand Duke Constantine at its head. She first foment ed, by her agents, disaffection in Crimea. In this she was completely successful, and Crimea [l7Bl] became a Rnsßian province.. The moa bter Pau! Potempkin figured in those proceedings, nnd odo of his acts was to caaso thirty thousand Tartars to be massacred. At length the Porto, Augußt 24, 1787, declared war against Russia, Its manisesto contains, details of the occupation of the Crimea; of Russian intrigues in Moldavia and Wallaohia; of the march of Potempki to the Turkish frontiers with 60 or 70,000 men; and a long catalogue of aggressive acta. The great prirno mover in all was Prince Potempki, then in tho zenith of his power and the height of hiß crime.. This war lasted four years. Its thoatro was Crimea, Bessarabia, the countries on the Danube from Bosnia to Moldavia, and tho month of the Dnieper. The distress to which the Porte was reduced aroused the sympathies of other powers. An alliance was formed with Prussia, and Eng land mediation.- Daring this war exciting de bates took place in the British parliament in re lation to Russian aggrandizement. These far-. seeing statesmen urged that theD, if ever, was __ the time to. preserve the balance of European power, and that the future required of Great Britain to maintain the integrity of Poland. Pitt was ready to declare war against Russia, but the violence of opposition prevented him. At length the peace of Jassy was made January 'J, 1722. By it. 1, the Dnieper was made the boundary between the two countries, which left the Crimea, Cheraon and Tursida to Russia; whence soon sprung the Russian ports of Odessa, Cherson, Sebastopol, and the Russian Marine. 2, all the conquered places on the right of this river were restored to the Porto. 3, the cities of Wallachia ani,Moldavia wero confirmed in the auciont rights and privileges.. This result was of great consequence to Russia, for it promoted thogreat object of the creation of marine. [CONCLUSION TO-MOBBOW.] Foreign New* by tile Europa. The Peace Negotiations and Proipects .—The Btate of affairs resulting from tho withdrawal of - the Russian Ministers from England and France is so well described by tho Assembled, that we may. ns well employ its language: “The rupture of. tho diplomatic relations be tween the Courts of Paris and London, and that of St. Petersburg is now nf ail accompli; and this fact, os every body knowß, instead of shafting public confidence, coincides in a singular manner with a notable improvement in tho publio funds in Paris and London. TVo are of opinion that the pnblio arc right in not taking alarm. The sttitnde assumed by the Courts of Berlin and Vienna, since the mission of Count Orloff, is of a nature to revive hopes of peaoo. ' “In tho political world it is thought that in presence of this unanimity of the great powers, and above all of the pacific efforts of tho gov ernments of Austria and Prussia, the dispositions of the Emperor of Russia will be modified and permit the resumption of negotiations. Hopes of this nature have been so often disappointed that we arc afraid to place too mnoh confidence in those which now present themselves. Never theless thero is in Europe so energetic an 1 opin ion in favor of the maintenance of peace, that it is impossible for as not to admit that it may have a deoisive infiuence on tho resolutions of the ’ Cabinet of St. Petersburg.” Nevertheless,, formidable preparations aro.be ing made bythe French government for joining its allies in the field. A decree 1b expected, call ing ont'the 00,000 men of the class of 1858. The semi-official Dresden Journal says, that ••tho Russian government neither absolutely re jects nor adopts tho propositions mado to It by the confoderence, according to tho wish of the Ottoman Porte. It proposes modifications, and the conference has already taken them into con sideration.” However this may be, there is rea son to believe that negotiations in one shape or another ore still going on. Yiehna, Fob. B. —lt is by no means certain that Count Orloff has not gained great advantages here for Russia. The nature of the neutrality professed by Austria is still a matter of dtfGbt. Prance. —"Private letters from Brest state that the Atlantia squadron bad received orders to proceed to Afrloa, to take on board a first di vision of 10,000 men, who have been already or ganized by General Pellissior. These troopsaro no doubt destined for the East. It is very cur rently stated that General Ferre, Bon-in-lawof the late Marshal Bugeaad, ib to be appointed commander-in-chief of the cavalry of the expe dition intended-for. the East.

Tbo Credit Mobiller, it seems, has,proposed a loan of 200,000,0001, bat it is said that-that establishment has been informed by the Minister of Finance that the Treasury had no occasion for a loan. The Paris Bourse speculators still oliug to the hope that the Emperor of Austria wilt induce the Czar te accept the arraugoment produced by the Conference of Vienna. A Paris letter says; “ If you should hear of a ridiculous rumor of a contemplated divorce between the Emperor and Empress, you may treat it with contempt, for that is all it merits.” Belgium.—lt is stated that the commercial dif ferences between Belgium and France have been satisfactorily arranged. This is attributed to the visit of Princo Napoleon. It is now understood that Princo Napoleon was commissioned by the Emperor of France to inform the. Kino of the Belgians that the five - millions worth of. forest land, confiscated, by ' Lonis Napoleon from Leopold’s Queen; who was a daughter of Louis Philippe, will be restored to him on condition of .his frank and unhesita ting adhesionto England ond France in the im pending war.

FREE TRADE IB RAILROADS' Some of our neighbors are asking quite seri ously bow Pittsburgh shall prevent the construc tion of any railroad, except thoso that ran fhrough her streets, and terminate at the doors of her warehouses. The North Western railroad is the “raw head and bloody bones” that occa sions the present alarm. ; It seem 9 quite possible that old Butler county may have a railroad through her bardors, to de volopo her agricultural and mineral wealth, to doable the value of her farms, to connect her people with the fast world around them, and to greet their ears with tho screams of tho iron horse, and tho roar of tho train. And the people of Butler In their joj , colobrato the coming event With bonfires and illuminations; and send tbeir thanks to the great city whose wealth is to bo employed to build them a railroad. It is mighty, little that great city cares for Butler, but Butler is on the route; so sbomay possibly get a railroad. And our neighbor oaks in alarm, how shall we prevent that railroad being built? Haw shall we manage to leave Butler still in the woods ? Now, for our part, we havo no possiblo interest in that North Western road, and Dot a partlclo of inducement to favor it. We would be glad to havo every railroad in the whole country run through Pittsburgh, and terminato at the offico of the Horning Post. Bnt it is impossible. Rail roads seem likely to become as common in the future, as wagon roads are now. Evory county, every community wants one, and has a right to have one if the means Can be foand to build them. ■ All these roads cannot be foroed to con verge upon a few cities. Let the railroads be bnilt wherever.the people choose to build them. They will devclope the wealth of tho wbole coun try, and treble its population; and tho oities will participate iu tho general prosperity; and grow with the growth of tho country. Cities must depend as heretofore, not on railroads forced into them, bat upon tho inducements their markets hold ont to the public, tho abundance and exoellenoo of their manufactures, and the energy and enterprise of their people. Let Pittsburgh “hurry up’t her own railroads, and Waste no time in the vain strife to prevent ether communities , from having them. With her own splendid system of railroads completed, ouroity willposßess ns many and great advantages as any other inland city; and she has no oocasion to dread tho cffcots of rival ronteß, or envy the prosperity of a neighbor. . ; If Philadelphia will build railroads north and spatho f us for her own benefit, let Pittsburgh build railronds to New York and Baltimore, and ti> tho north and sonth-of Philadelphia, for our benefit. And that is exactly what is being done now. s New York is securing a lino of roads direct to Pittsburgh, running north of the city of broth eriylore. Our Allegheny Valloy roadis a Heap field on our Eastern metropolis; oar Connells* vjlle another. Build thorn; not to harm Phila delphia, but to benefit Pittsburgh. Lot the roads go free.wherever people, choose to build them. Inhere is not a railroad in the whole Western chantry that will not benefit Pittsburgh, when her own roads are completed. ■ Thoy will giro her cheap and speedy access, with her mauafao tpros and merchandise, to every community, j This policy of Becking to thrive at the expense of oiir neighbors: we never believed wise or suo opssfal. And the people of Pittsburgh general ly, we know, are not advooates of Bnch an illib eral polioy. Free trade in railroads is tho only true poliey, and it will prevail. It is too late to prevent, it if wo would. Wo wonld not do it if we coaid. - , JS®“ The late Elliott Cresson, who died in Philadelphia a few days ago, loft by his will .$50,000. to the American Sunday School Union; $5OOO to plant shade trees in Philadelphia; to the Pennsylvania University at Philadelphia, $5000; for the endowment of a sohool of design in Philadelphia, $10,000; for a sohool of mines, $5000; to tho:Pennsylvania Agricultural So ciety, $5000; thoPennsylvaniaHistorical Society, $10,000; to a Seminary of the Protestant Epis dopal Church, $5000; to his friend and pastor, Ijtov. ,Wm.

We suppose the merchant thought that thoy were i going to got up so big a “brush” in Europe that thoro-would bo no materials left for little brushes in America. It is a gTave question. How does a war in Europe raise the prioo .of Bcrubbiog brushes in Pittsburgh ? •We aro aware that the Emperor of Russiahas “got his bristles up,” and that England and France aro "Aful hng vp” also; but wo cannot see how that : should raise the price* of hogs’ bristles in this country.

Bat wo want, to bo informed how the war in Europo raisos the price of brushes, and a great many other attiolea that can bo produced now as cheaply as ever. An event has occurred which raises a new dif- 1 ticulty in tho way of securing commercial rela tions with the abovo-named Empire. Tho Em-1 peror of Japan is dead.
